War of Resistance

Chapter 971 The Battle of Wanjialing ([-])
"Yes, company commander!" The platoon leaders next to him responded.

"Act now!" Liu Houming said bitterly. If he had known earlier, he should have applied to the regiment to bring the mortar company over.

……

Zangji Yamanaka was an ordinary squadron leader of the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army. Like most Japanese officers and soldiers, he was full of fear in his heart, but he couldn't show it because he was the squadron leader.

Different from the composition of the officers and soldiers below, Zangji Yamanaka came from the elite of the left-behind troops of the original Sixth Division, while most of the officers and soldiers below were brought back by the reserve officers and soldiers in the society-the combat effectiveness is not the same .

The current location of the Yamanaka Squadron is not an ordinary dangerous place, and Zangji Yamanaka also knows that if there is a war, it will not be an ordinary troublesome place, and they will be the first to be taken away.

From a strategic point of view, Beitianpu was originally an outlying position of Nantianpu, and it was taken away. It could only be a reminder to the large troops of Nantianpu.

Zangji Yamanaka didn't dare to have any objection to the arrangement of the captain of the alliance Kasao Kijima - the first rank of the official rank crushed people, let alone the second rank?
Therefore, even though there were many complaints in his heart, Zangji Yamanaka could only go north with the second squadron whose establishment had already been incomplete.

Yes, the second squadron of Zangji Yamanaka was also disabled in previous battles, but his squadron suffered relatively small losses-they only reduced their staff by about 140 people, which means that there are only about [-] people.

In order to ensure the security of the village center, Zangji Yamanaka chose to set up strongholds in the four corners of the northeast, northwest, southeast, and southwest, and placed about [-] people in each stronghold. This deployment of troops can not only ensure that the strongholds have a certain combat effectiveness , and at the same time have the ability to protect themselves, otherwise, just releasing it like this will send the head to the enemy army on the opposite side.

Eighty or ninety officers and soldiers were placed in the four corners, and there were only five or sixty people left in the city.

What is an army of five or sixty people compared to the war machine?If you disperse again, there will be no one left!
Therefore, in this case, Zangji Yamanaka can only form two patrol teams, each with eight people; there are also eight people who observe the situation in the corners of the village (two people in each corner), and the rest of the troops are concentrated. Get up and support the operations in other corners at any time.

Perhaps because of the panic, Zangji Yamanaka also made a decision, that is, when any corner is attacked by a large enemy force, the troops in other corners must immediately enter the village and have a decisive battle with the enemy!
Hiding in the headquarters in the village, looking at the thirty people outside, Zangji Yamanaka couldn't help frowning slightly: just this few people are not enough to fit between the teeth.

At this moment, the battle outside the village started.

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

……

A burst of dense explosions came from the northeast corner and the northwest corner respectively. This kind of dense explosion made Yamanaka Zangji feel frightened: this unusual Chinese army has firepower, either it is the Chinese army The main force of the Central Army, otherwise it is absolutely elite!

But in the cognition of Yamanaka Zangzhi, the latter possibility is very small, and that is the former possibility.

Thinking of this, Zangji Yamanaka panicked. He immediately said to the soldiers around him: "Immediately send a report to the captain and tell them that we have been attacked by the absolute main force of the Chinese army! Request immediate support!"

Yes, from the perspective of Zangji Yamanaka, they were attacked by the main force of the enemy. How could ordinary troops have such intensive firepower?
"Hay!" The telegraph operator nearby responded.

As for the reason for sending the telegram so quickly, it is also very simple, because their enemy troops will call over soon, and it is very likely that their telegram for support has never been sent!

The ancients said that death is heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather.It is nothing more than the word "value".

Zangji Yamanaka believes that even if all of his squadron are killed in battle, the task must be completed, and death is worthwhile.

No matter who it is, the only value of stationing at Beitianpu is to report to the alliance headquarters at Nantianpu.

But what the Tibetan government office in the mountains never expected was that the dense gunfire only lasted for a while and then stopped.

A Japanese soldier ran outside and reported: "Report to your Excellency, the squadron leader, all the northeast strongholds of our outlying strongholds are 'jade fragments'! After annihilating the defenders of my stronghold, all the enemy troops retreated and did not proceed to the next step!"

Just after this Japanese soldier finished his report, another Japanese soldier who was running out of breath also ran in, and he reported: "Report to your Excellency, the squadron leader, all the defenders in the northwest stronghold of my outlying stronghold are 'destroyed', the defenders No one survived. But after the enemy army wiped out our defenders, they retreated immediately and did not take the next step!"

"Nani?! What the hell are these damned Chinese people trying to do?!" Zangji Yamanaka was furious, but he couldn't do anything about it, because the initiative was in the hands of the enemy, not in the hands of their second squadron!

"Hay!!" The two Japanese soldiers in front of them didn't know what the squadron leader wanted to do, so they could only bow their heads in response.

"Tell me right away, how did the enemy annihilate our defenders?! Hurry up!!" Zangji Yamanaka roared, and at the same time, there was a chill in his heart. He always felt that the enemy on the opposite side was like a cunning bird. Like old cats, they want to play with them, but they are not in a hurry to annihilate them. The enemy seems to want to use them to achieve some goals, but they don't know what these enemies want to do.

Does the enemy want to play psychological warfare?As said in "Sun Tzu's Art of War", go up to attack the strategy, and go down to attack the city?Thinking of this, Zangji Yamanaka's heart became even colder.

"Report to the squadron leader, our enemies have very strong firepower, at least fifteen grenadiers, and more than a dozen light machine guns. They moved very quickly and wiped out our defenders in a short while , our people didn't even have time to fight back!" one of the Japanese soldiers said.

"Yes! The enemy army we encountered is the same. Their number is not large, about 100 or so, but their weapons are so sophisticated and they use grenades skillfully. The defenders on our side did not fight back. It was wiped out by the enemy! Our enemy is terrible!" Another Japanese soldier said.

"Koizumi-kun! Report this situation to the captain immediately, and ask the captain to make a decision!" Zangji Yamanaka said to the telegraph operator beside him.

"Hay!!" The telegraph operator responded.
