All gods, the lord who started with the bright sword

Chapter 192, The Sixth Division's Offensive Tactics
The headquarters of the Independent Regiment was built underground, and a large area was hollowed out as an interior space, and the roof was covered.

Act like a caveman.

As a purely helpless move, the devil's reconnaissance plane flew eight times a day. If it was put on the bright side, it would have to be discovered.

The headquarters is extremely simple, with only one Eight Immortals table looking like it.

The stools to sit on were piled up from empty ammunition boxes, and the bed was also made of wood.

Fortunately, these old men are used to it, and they can fall asleep as soon as they lie on the ground. They changed to a certain thigh that they love to enjoy, and it is specified that they can't sit well and can't fall asleep.

When Li Yunlong returned to the headquarters, he thought of Chen Hao.

Habit is a terrible force. There is going to be a war, and without Chen Hao's advice, Li Yunlong is not used to it.

Zhao Gang asked him: "Old Li, the devil's vanguard will definitely arrive tonight. You have to make up your mind how we should deal with it."

Hearing the question, Li Yunlong came back to his senses. He thought about it and said, "There is nothing to say when the soldiers come to block the water and store up the soil. Let's just accept the devil's way."

He said it lightly, and Zhao Gang didn't have any confidence in his heart.

This group of devils is different from the previous ones, but they are the ace division of the little devils.

In particular, the entire division came out in full force, nearly more than 30,000 people, fifteen times that of their independent regiment.

If you think about it with your heels, you know that it will definitely be a fierce battle, and it is impossible to fight as easy as before.

There are too many people in the headquarters, and Zhao Gang can't say anything that discourages him.As a political commissar, he was scared, so what would the cadres and soldiers below think?
It directly shook the morale of the army.

But if he doesn't say it, it doesn't mean that others won't say it.

A staff officer of the regiment headquarters expressed his concern tactfully with a worried face, and suggested: "Leader, I think we should report to our superiors for help earlier.

Say it earlier, and the reinforcements can come sooner. "

The regiment headquarters said at least half of the people reported a similar view to him.

Someone came forward to express his opinion, and the rest of the people stared at Li Yunlong to see what he had to say.

Li Yunlong glanced at the staff officer contemptuously: "You think you can imagine it, but the head of the headquarters can't think of it?
To tell you the truth, the head of the headquarters is going to play a big game. "

Everyone was surprised when they heard it, and then suddenly realized.

No wonder the group leader is so confident, he must know additional key information.

Zhao Gang was also kept in the dark, and he couldn't help thinking: When did Li Yunlong know about it? Didn't the telegram from the headquarters mention it recently?

Most likely it was the time when I went to the headquarters to report to work and got a secret appointment.

Zhao Gang quickly reminded him: "Did the superior ask to keep it secret? If it is inconvenient to say, we will not listen."

The overall strategy is appropriate from the position of a chess player.

In this battle, the Independent Regiment is at best a pawn, and it doesn't make much sense to care about the overall situation, but it will cause more trouble.

Li Yunlong really cannot reveal the overall strategy, but he can reveal something else.

He said to everyone in the headquarters: "In this war, our independent regiment can be said to be the most critical.

The mission entrusted to us by the headquarters is to hold back the enemy, dampen his spirit, and prevent the enemy from achieving his goal.

As long as we can accomplish this, our independent regiment will have made great achievements. "

Persevering in procrastination is a great achievement. Everyone tasted the mystery, and gradually figured out a little flavor.

"Report, the headquarters is calling."

Not long ago, Zhao Gang sent the news of the enemy's approach to the headquarters.

This should be a call back.

It seems impossible that Li Yunlong doesn't know a whole bunch of Chinese characters, so they can be read directly.

Ignore the care and encouragement that are not very important, the most important instruction from the headquarters: order your independent group to stick to it for at least seven days, and when the time is up, it will be a great achievement.

There is no mention of what happens if the hold fails.

If there is a failure, it must be that Li Yunlong led the whole regiment and died in battle.

"Seven days, today shouldn't be counted!"

Zhao Gang seemed to be asking, but he seemed to have an answer in his heart.

"The calculation will start at twelve o'clock tonight." Li Yunlong gave his confirmation.

Once the goal is clarified, everyone can unite and work hard towards the goal.

The troops must formulate a seven-day rotation plan to ensure that every combat unit can have a chance to breathe.

In terms of logistical supplies, preparations have been made when the special mission troops are stationed, and both ammunition and food are very sufficient.

Although the Japanese army had a large number of troops, they could not be fully deployed due to terrain constraints.

The staff members of the regiment headquarters unanimously decided that it would be a wheel battle and a test for the resilience of the independent regiment.

The chief of staff of the regiment said: "In fact, we are not afraid of an attack on land. The key point is that the devil's plane can drop bombs from the sky..."

"That depends on the number of our surface-to-air missiles. When they are exhausted, we have to pick up bombs." Li Yunlong said a wisecrack.

Everyone was amused.

They have heard of the surface-to-air missile company deployed in the valley behind.

The missiles were fired whizzingly, and the white smoke left traces in the sky, which left a deep impression on the commanders and fighters of the independent regiment.

I heard that the missile hit higher and farther, killing twenty bombers in one go.

It makes people fascinated.

……

In the evening, the troops of the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army had already stationed ten kilometers outside the valley.

The whole wilderness is a busy scene.

The soldiers were busy setting up camp and building fire stoves to prepare dinner.

The senior officers were not idle and gathered in the big tent of the division headquarters, preparing for a combat meeting.

More than a dozen reconnaissance planes a day, the effect is very obvious.

Several key pieces of information were placed in front of the head of the division, Hisao Tani.

First, a large number of machines are in the valley and have not been moved away, which means that the target of their Sixth Division's attack is still there.

Second, the valley and its surrounding terrain were photographed by a high-resolution camera and a very detailed map was made.

Including the fortifications that the Eighth Route is building.

There is no doubt that the map is the key to Tani Hisao directing the attack.

No. 11 Brigade Commander Tokutaro Juni said: "General, the vanguard just launched a tentative attack.

As expected, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army had an assault rifle in their hands, and the firepower was very powerful.

One of the attacking squadron suffered heavy casualties and was forced to retreat. "

Tani Hisao nodded incredulously.

Such a critical place in the arsenal must be the most elite trump card of the Eighth Route Army.

The information before the start of the war confirmed this matter. The independent regiment of the 2000th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army was stationed in the arsenal, with about [-] people.

Previously, Yangquan, an important town, was captured with a regiment of troops.

It directly led to the death of a brigade headquarters and the death of a major general.

If Hisao Tani had been contemptuous before, he felt that the failure of a second-line defense brigade was nothing.

Well, now that he has experienced two small battles, he will not underestimate him in the slightest.

After concentrating on studying all the way, Hisao Tani studied a new set of tactics according to the actual situation. He waved his hand to signal the chief of staff of the division to stand up and explain to everyone.

The chief of staff of the division is Koichi Ikeda, with the rank of Colonel.

According to the promotion process of Japanese officers, it is the line of regimental commander-division chief of staff-brigade commander.

It can be determined that the rank of the chief of staff is slightly lower than that of the brigade head, but higher than that of the wing captain.

He stood up and explained the strategy of play, which was quite convincing, and all the officers present at the meeting cheered up.

Colonel Ikeda held the baton in his hand, pointed to the map hanging on the wall and said: "The valley was unknown before, and in the words of the Chinese people, it was a place where birds don't shit.

Now we call it an arsenal. "

Eight roads chose it as the address of the arsenal, so it is quite appropriate to call the valley the arsenal.

The concave position between the two mountains is called a valley, and the concave character can vividly express the meaning of the valley.

The "Arsenal" valley is sandwiched between two big mountains, with a drop of about 300 meters, which is relatively steep and difficult to climb.

In addition, there are only two exits from the valley, one facing south, which is the direction from which the Sixth Division attacked.

There is also one in the northeast direction, which is narrower than the one in the south.

From the perspective of aerial reconnaissance, the Eighth Route has built three defensive positions at the southern exit, and the widest part can only be attacked by less than two squadrons.

In a narrow place, it is difficult for a small team to spread out.

There are two defensive positions exiting in the northeast direction, and the defensive forces seem to be weaker.

It takes an extra [-] kilometers to make a detour, and it is even more difficult to attack.

Colonel Ikeda said: "After the research of the staff department, there are still doubts about the rapid breakthrough of the Eighth Route's position.

This battle can easily turn into a refueling tactic, which is not advisable.

Our army should give full play to its superiority in strength, encircle from all directions, attack everywhere, and break through the eight-way defense line. "

Many officers were confused and surrounded from all directions?
There are only two exits in the valley, where do they come from all directions?

"How to fight? Tell me in detail." Tokutaro Junjing interjected.

Colonel Ikeda glanced at Hisao Tani and got the affirmation from the other party. He bit the bullet and said: "The suggestion of the general staff is to carry out a diversion campaign against the two entrances of the valley.

The engineering corps tried to find a way to the top of the mountain and opened up two offensive routes.

The infantry can detour to the enemy's rear and attack directly, seizing the machinery and equipment of the arsenal. "

Tokutaro Shii was stunned, such a proposal, how dare you think about it!

If you don't walk to climb a mountain to attack, there are so many difficulties in it, I'm afraid I can't count them.

But he has to admit that this is the best way at present.

If there is no surprise, even if the Eighth Route Army in the valley can be wiped out, it is almost impossible to have a chance to completely capture the machinery and equipment of the arsenal.

The Eighth Route Army is not a fool. They would rather destroy the machine than let it fall into their hands.

If you insist on destroying those machines, just let the air force throw bombs, why send them the army.

Tokutaro Tokutaro thought about it carefully, expressed his approval of the plan of the staff department, and proposed at the same time:
"The No. 13 Alliance wants to take the blame and make meritorious deeds. Let them take the task of attacking and restraining the Eight Routes from the front."

It was Tani Hisao who said that it is a crime and meritorious service, and he naturally agreed.

With this arrangement, there is only one infantry wing left in the No.11 Brigade.

Not surprisingly, the task of climbing the mountain was handed over to the No.30 Sixth Brigade.

The head of the brigade, Major General Ushishima Man, knew that this was a hard task, but he still bit the bullet and agreed.

The containment of the exit in the northeast direction of the valley was handed over to the cavalry regiment.

The infantry is too slow to detour for [-] kilometers, but the cavalry is just right.

The cavalry attack has the defect of a solid defensive position, but it is not a big problem.

They don't have to contain too many troops from the Eighth Route Army, the key is not to allow the Eighth Route Army to run away with the machine.

The Sixth Field Artillery Regiment, to which the division belongs, and the strengthened Cannon Brigade immediately set up artillery positions to cooperate with the frontal containment of the Eleventh Brigade.

If the artillery fire is powerful enough, it will appear to be aggressive and can confuse all parties.
