Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 222 Created a Miracle (Second Update!)

Major General Ono is in a very complicated mood now.

Staring at the battlefield and seeing the troops finally rushing into the Eighth Route Army's position, Ono's first reaction was to be happy, happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Yo Xi, we have finally broken through. We have finally broken through the blocking position that lost hundreds of warriors! The attacking troops don't stop, continue to charge forward. The Eighth Route Army must have set up more than one line of defense in front of us!"

"Boom boom boom..." Before the order was issued, a few explosions came over!

Major General Ono was startled at first, then his face turned pale, and he shouted: "Why is there still an explosion? Could it be that the Eighth Route Army is plotting something else!"

From this sentence, it can be seen that Ono was frightened by the dazzling methods of the independent regiment today. When he encountered something, he subconsciously thought that he was being tricked by the Eighth Route Army again.

Fortunately, the squadron leader sent them a semaphore in time.

"Report to the general, it is a landmine. The attacking troops report that the Eighth Route Army has planted landmines on the position, and ask for engineering support!"

Ono subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered: "Bageyalu, the Eighth Route Army is too cunning to use it endlessly, even using landmines."

"Let the engineering squadron send a small team up to clear the mines immediately and clear the way for the main attack!"

In less than half an hour, more than a dozen landmines that had not exploded were dug out, and a casualty report was sent to Ono.

The chief of staff reported with a sullen face: "General, this is the loss of the first line of defense of the Eighth Route Army."

"The imperial army killed 534 people and seriously injured 128 people. Among them, more than [-] seriously injured people were caused by the landmine just now. Even if they survived, they would leave the army because of their injuries!"

"The Royal Association Army killed 289 people, and the seriously wounded remained on the battlefield. Because the time was too long, they all died!"

"In addition, we also lost 7 heavy machine guns, and other light weapons nearly equal to the equipment of an infantry squadron!"

"Baga, taking down one line of defense of the Eighth Route Army will cost so many people, and there are still several lines of defense to attack, so the thousands of imperial troops we brought out will be lost here!" Ono became angry all of a sudden, and Like an angry lion, roaring loudly.

"In the next attack, our losses will definitely not be so great!" The chief of staff replied very positively, and then analyzed with a serious face.

"We didn't know that the Eighth Route Army had built a permanent firepower point on the position. If we had known in advance, we wouldn't have dispatched three infantry squadrons to launch a group attack. In this case, our losses would have been reduced by at least one or two infantry squadrons! "

"Also, for the next attack, the army aviation must have a bomber patrolling over the battlefield, destroying the permanent firepower points and artillery positions exposed by the Eighth Route Army at any time!"

"In this way, our losses can be minimized, and more Eighth Route Army can be wiped out on the battlefield by attacking!"

The gloomy expression on Ono's face eased a lot. After taking a deep breath, he replied: "Chief of Staff, your analysis makes sense!"

"That's it! Pass my order, and the troops will continue to attack. If you encounter the Eighth Route Army's blocking position, attack according to the method you just did! In addition, I will add one more thing. When attacking, you can let the Imperial Association Army cooperate with the Imperial Army to launch the attack. Reduce the loss of the imperial army on the battlefield!"

When the devils marched towards the second line of defense of the Independence Regiment, Yang Xiong, whose face was full of gunpowder smoke, his arms were still wounded, and his uniform was stained with blood, was brought directly to Zhang Yunshan.

"Report to the Battalion Commander, Zhang Yunshan was ordered to complete the task, and held the position for three hours without being breached by the Japanese army... However, the troops suffered heavy casualties, and many soldiers died!"

"Do you know how many devils and puppet soldiers you have killed?" Zhang Yunshan stared at Yang Xiong and asked back.

After seeing Yang Xiong shaking his head, he didn't hesitate, and replied directly: "At least [-] devils, and nearly [-] imperial alliance troops. Even if all the soldiers we lost on the battlefield died, you still have a one-to-three casualty ratio. You know, this is a frontal battlefield, not the ambush we usually fight. This is a miracle, you know? You, Yang Xiong, have created a miracle of war here. If you report this result to the regiment headquarters, I am sure, the regiment leader and the political commissar I will personally go to the military division to ask for credit for you!"

Yang Xiong still didn't have any smile on his face, and replied with a frown: "But no matter what, it's true that there were hundreds of casualties. There were still living lives this morning, and they all turned into corpses in just a few hours!"

Zhang Yunshan hurriedly comforted: "Commander Yang, our loss is not as big as you imagined!"

"Most of the soldiers were bombed by artillery shells. The artillery shells are not bullets fired by devils, they are aimed at deadly places. Old Wang, please give us Company Commander Yang a detailed introduction of our casualties!"

"Yes, Battalion Commander!" Instructor Wang Liang stood up and introduced.

"You have a main company, plus a recruit company and a garrison company, with a total of more than 480 people. In the end, 169 people returned safely, with a total of 315 casualties. All of them were carried off by the stretcher team."

"After simple first aid and bandaging, 315 of the 189 people died, and the other 126 were only injured. There must be no problem at all if they survived!"

"The other thing is, among the 126 people, more than 80 can go back to the army directly after recovery!"

"According to the order of the regimental commander before the battle, all the troops that retreated from the front line were reorganized in order to ensure their combat effectiveness. All recruit companies were added to the main force company, and some were added to the garrison company, but the combat effectiveness of the main force company must be guaranteed. "

"So, the first thing you have to do when you go back later is to reorganize the troops. The soldiers who returned safely, except the garrison company, all the others will be incorporated into your first company. Those with insufficient personnel will be temporarily lacking. Wait for the seriously wounded in the hospital to recover. , supplement it directly to you!"

Yang Xiong knows the situation of the remaining 169 people better than anyone else.

Although the defensive company was the last to enter the battlefield, its casualties were no less than those of the main force.

The garrison company of nearly 150 people persisted until the end with only 53 people left, and the others were either sacrificed or seriously injured.

According to the reorganization plan introduced by the battalion commander just now, the remaining 116 people are regarded as soldiers of the company.

Although the strength is more than one infantry platoon less than the previous company, but because these people are veterans who have experienced battles, after the reorganization of the troops, the combat effectiveness is not much weaker!

"What about the equipment? The garrison company has two Czech-made guns left, and the main force and the recruit company have only three of the eight crooked handles left. Even if there is no recruit company, the remaining three crooked handles are not enough for us to use in a row!" Yang Xiong asked after Zhang Yunshan.

"I don't have any equipment here either!" Zhang Yunshan replied shaking his head.

Just when a look of disappointment flashed across Yang Xiong's face, Zhang Yunshan changed the subject and continued.

"However, don't worry too much. The regiment leader said that he will replenish as much equipment as we lost in this bloody battle. Therefore, all you need to do is to lead your troops!"
