Chapter 987 Ambush at the doorstep

Chapter 987: Setting an ambush at the door of the house (second update)

"The Eighth Route Army in Yizhong is dispatched..." A radio operator suddenly rushed into the war room and went straight to Okamura Neji.

Before he could stand still, he reported anxiously: "Sir..."

"The 103rd Regiment stationed in Dongzhuang Town has an urgent call..."

"The Eighth Route Army suddenly dispatched a reinforced brigade to attack them..."

"The offensive is very fierce, and there are at least fifty various mountain guns and large-caliber heavy artillery participating in the battle. The troops have suffered heavy losses and are in urgent need of reinforcements."

A flash of surprise quickly flashed across Okamura Neiji's face. While looking for the specific location of Dongzhuang Town on the sand table, he asked: "How long can they last?"

The deputy chief of staff glanced at the contents of the telegram and quickly read the contents of the telegram. Then he replied with Neji Okamura's words: "They strictly implemented the headquarters' operational plan and did not use all their wealth to block the attack at once."

"In addition to the frontal blocking troops, there is also a full infantry brigade hidden in the station."

"It was decided to wait for the Eighth Route Army to break through the first line of defense and launch a counterattack when it was about to capture the second line of defense. Kill the main attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army without haste, and take the opportunity to consume their strength."

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will definitely be no problem to survive the Eighth Route Army's strong attack for three hours."

"Yoshi..." Okamura Neji's smile grew wider.

Pointing to the two garrisons closest to Dongzhuang Town, he said: "Order these two regiments to immediately send reinforcements, march urgently to reinforce Dongzhuang Town, encircle the main attacking force of the Eighth Route Army, and annihilate them all if they can. If they can't, they will be killed." They shed a layer of skin.”

The deputy chief of staff smiled and accepted the order: "I'll make arrangements now for my humble position."

"The main attacking force of the Eighth Route Army does not know that the Dongzhuang Town garrison has hidden an ambush, and it will definitely suffer heavy losses in the battle."

"When the reinforcements reach behind them, it will be too late for the Eighth Route Army to retreat."

Just as the deputy chief of staff was about to leave, a combat staff officer suddenly reminded: "Sir..."

"What if this is the Eighth Route Army's plan to encircle the point and bring reinforcements?"

"There are only two reinforced brigades in the reinforcements."

"With the combat power of the remaining troops of the Eighth Route Army and an all-out attack, we will surely be able to easily eat them."

"You worry too much..." Okamura Neji decisively objected.

"Reconnaissance shows that the Eighth Route Army that broke out last night has a reinforced brigade commander, with a total strength of about 1 people."

"The Sixth Army Division in the Wing has a total of two main brigades and three garrison regiments."

"Because the troops have just been reorganized, except for the main brigade, which has some combat effectiveness and can go to the battlefield at any time to participate in the battle. All three garrison regiments have no combat effectiveness because of too many recruits."

"It means that only one brigade of the Eighth Route Army's remaining troops can participate in the battle."

"The Dongzhuang Town battle report made it very clear that the Eighth Route Army attacking them had at least three main regiments, which is the strength of a brigade."

"Do you think there are still troops in the [-]th Army Division in the Wing that can go for reinforcements?"

"As long as the Eighth Route Army's offensive against Dongzhuang Town does not weaken, our reinforcements will not have any accidents."

"At most, we will be attacked by a few garrison groups using guerrilla warfare, but there will definitely be no danger."

The combat staff still felt there was a problem here.

But what Okamura Neji said was reasonable, and he couldn't find any reason to refute it.

And judging from Okamura Neji's expression, the commander seemed to be full of hope and longing for the next battle.

If he continues to be ignorant, refute Okamura Neji's opinions, and make him unhappy, his future will be doomed. ,

Shut your mouth decisively.

…………

Although the next battle was to encircle a point for reinforcements, Huang Yu did not choose the ambush battlefield too close to Dongzhuang Town. Instead, he chose a section of road close to the reinforcements' station, which was at the doorstep of the Japanese reinforcements' home.

Neji Okamura will definitely not put loopholes on the front line for Kong Jie to attack.

Therefore, the commander's attack on Dongzhuang Town will probably have an accident.If he ends the ambush earlier, the troops attacking Dongzhuang Town will be able to retreat earlier, and the casualties will be much smaller.

This is one of the main reasons why Huang Yu chose the battlefield here.

Another factor is to want the Japanese to underestimate the enemy.

Under normal circumstances, the closer the reinforcements are to the battlefield, the higher the vigilance of the troops will be.

When they first left the station, the Japanese army was the least vigilant because it was too close to the station.

If the ambush troops launch a sudden attack, they will definitely kill the Japanese army without any fuss.

As for the Japanese troops staying at the garrison, if they dare to send troops to immediately reinforce the battlefield, Huang Yu wouldn't mind eating them all.

"Deputy Chief of Staff..."

The cavalry correspondent galloped towards Huang Yu on horseback. When he was still six or seven meters away, he turned over and fell off his horse, and quickly ran to Huang Yu to report.

"The Japanese reinforcements have left the station..."

"Two entire infantry brigades..."

"Each of them strengthens an anti-tank artillery squadron and two mountain artillery squadrons. There are no heavy artillery or tank troops."

Huang Yu replied seriously: "The heavy artillery is too heavy and affects the marching speed of the troops. The chariots are too noisy and cannot achieve the purpose of raiding us."

"The Japs Captain is very smart."

"If it weren't for the three garrison regiments participating in the battle, there would be no way we could split them into two and set up an ambush here to annihilate them all with the sole brigade and the headquarters guard regiment."

"Inform the troops to prepare for battle."

"Fight quickly and try to end the battle within half an hour."

…………

On the battlefield of Dongzhuang Town.

Kong Jie was standing at the observation port of the command headquarters, staring at the battlefield.

Among the four main regiments that participated in the battle last night, the Japanese troops stationed in Dongzhuang Town suffered the greatest losses, with less than 500 men left in the entire regiment.

The lion picks up the soft ones and pinches them.

If they can't even deal with the little Japs stationed in Dongzhuang Town, let alone the other three regiments around them.

The storming had already begun for half an hour, and the battle was proceeding exactly as he had planned in advance.

After three consecutive attacks, the Japanese garrison on the first line of defense had suffered heavy losses, and the position was in danger and could be breached at any time.

If the Japanese hadn't promptly dispatched a squadron from the rear to reinforce the battlefield, the attacking troops would have definitely captured the Japanese first line of defense.

But even so, Kong Jie still believes that the offensive team will make a breakthrough in the upcoming fourth attack.

The Japanese army could mobilize troops from the garrison to reinforce the blockade. Although Kong Jie could not mobilize reinforcements, he still had many useless trump cards hidden in his hands.

As soon as a new round of artillery fire coverage of the Japanese positions began, Kong Jie began to issue an order: "Deploy two mortar companies and a flying thunder artillery company, and launch attacks simultaneously behind the attacking troops later."

"The flying thunder cannon fires a round of explosive charges and then moves away. Don't be targeted by the Japanese mortars and grenade launchers."

"If you can take away the thunder cannon, take it away. If you can't take it away, forget it."

"Anyway, we made it out of gasoline barrels. As long as the troops win more battles, we can seize a steady stream of gasoline barrels and manufacture a large number of flying mine cannons."

"As long as the people are alive and the equipment is gone, it will be gone. The divisional headquarters can replenish it for them at any time."
