Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 251 Counterattack (First update!)

In the same way, the Japanese army took nearly two hours to take down the fifth line of defense of the Independence Regiment.

At this time, there was only more than an hour left before dark.For safety's sake, the Devil's plane, which had been cruising over the battlefield for nearly an hour, had to return to its nest.

Losing air cover, Ono decisively ordered the troops to stop attacking and wait until dawn on the third day before attacking.

"General, the losses have been counted. We have a total of 621 casualties. However, there are only 205 people from the Imperial Army, and all the others are from the Imperial Association Army!" The chief of staff of the brigade came over happily to report.

"Yoxi!" A rare smile appeared on Ono's face.

But it didn't last too long before he regained his previous serious expression.

"According to this rate of loss, tomorrow we can lose at most half an infantry squadron to take down the last line of defense of the Independence Regiment, and then have a decisive battle with the Independence Regiment, destroy them, and take revenge! However, tonight, we must prepare for the night attack against the Eighth Route Army." Get ready. We must learn from the lesson of last night, and we must not do it again!"

The chief of staff immediately replied, "Please rest assured, the general, the same mistake will never be made a second time."

The atmosphere at the former enemy headquarters of the Independence Regiment was very bad, and the entire headquarters was shrouded in a dignified and tense atmosphere.

As soon as Chief of Staff Zeng Quan returned to the headquarters, Political Commissar Cheng Xiao asked, "Old Zeng, how about the casualties of the troops!"

"It's huge!" Zeng Quan replied shaking his head.

"The casualty rate of the troops participating in the battle, regardless of whether they are veterans or recruits, has reached an astonishing [-]%!"

"In addition, the firepower companies of the two battalions were almost completely wiped out, and the infantry artillery company had only one cannon left, and most of its personnel were lost!"

"It's over!" These two words suddenly popped into Cheng Xiao's mind.

"This time our Independence Regiment was maimed, if not completely wiped out! Nearly two thousand soldiers, just disappeared, the little devils are simply beasts!"

Speaking of this, Cheng Xiao exuded a murderous aura, and then frowned and called out to Wang Ping.

"Captain, didn't you say that tonight is the time for us to fight back? I only have one request, kill the devils, kill the most devils, and use the devils' lives to avenge the soldiers who died! Only in this way can I have the face to see those who died Soldiers have the face to meet their families!"

"Political commissar, don't worry, tonight, the devils on the other side will definitely suffer the fate of the invaders!" Wang Ping replied very positively.

Then he ordered everyone: "Okay, let's get down to business. We have waited for so long and nearly two thousand soldiers died for this moment to come. So, tonight, all the independent regiments below themselves cheered up and fought Well, in the counterattack tonight, no one can lose the chain!"

After reminding everyone, Wang Ping immediately began to issue orders: "Chief of Staff, immediately contact the first battalion commander Zhang Qing on the radio!"

"Deploy a company and set off immediately, destroy the road, slow down the speed of the Japanese army's return to Laiyuan City, and force the Japanese infantry, supply troops, and artillery troops to march separately!"

"Other troops, including the guard company and the reconnaissance platoon, are hiding in the Luojiawan area, waiting for new combat orders!"

"The cavalry company, dispatch in an hour, attack the patrols and checkpoints arranged by the Japanese army around the mountain, and slow down their assembly speed!"

"Then what about us!" Second Battalion Commander Zhang Yunshan and Third Battalion Commander Yan Song stared at Wang Ping and asked.

In two afternoons and one night of fighting, the independent regiment lost all their subordinates.If it is about revenge and killing devils, the two of them must think more than anyone else in the independent group.

In Wang Ping's plan, both battalions had missions.

But thinking of the current casualties of the two battalions, Wang Ping hesitated.

You can't wipe out all the two battalions in one battle!It really wiped out the troops, and there will be no seeds when the two battalions are reorganized in the future.

The corpse of Zhang Yunshan saw Wang Ping's thoughts, and immediately called for battle: "The regiment commander, the political commissar, the second battalion plus the four recruit companies, there are still two hundred people who can continue to fight. I temporarily formed a company, and the rest Some of them stayed in the station, and together with more than 100 wounded, they served as the seeds for the reorganization of the Second Battalion. Therefore, our Second Battalion must participate in the counterattack tonight. Even if we wipe out all the more than 100 soldiers, we must go to the battlefield to avenge the soldiers who died! "

Yan Song, the commander of the third battalion, immediately interjected: "I have compressed the first and second companies of the third battalion into one company. After adding some new recruits, the third battalion can come up with two full-strength main companies. Please give orders to the commander and political commissar!"

"Okay, count you guys!" Wang Ping made a decisive decision.

Laiyuan City is located in a small forest less than two kilometers away. A tent is hidden in the forest, and outsiders can't see it at all.

At this time, the head of the first regiment of the military division, who was also the head of the former enemy headquarters that attacked Laiyuan City, Chen, was staring at the map with a serious face and giving combat orders.

"Comrades, the commander sent us a telegram just now. Tonight, Laiyuan City must be captured, and then take the seized, and return to the base quickly!"

"Now I order that one regiment, one battalion, and two battalions will attack from the front. With the cooperation of the internal staff, they will break through Laiyuan City and enter Laiyuan City. The second regiment will use the battalion as a unit to attack from the other three city gates. At that time, we also had the cooperation of our troops hidden in the city."

"In order to disperse the limited defenders of Laiyuan City and disrupt their arrangements, we don't distinguish between main attack and feint attack in this attack. All the siege troops are the main attack."

"The third battalion of the first regiment, immediately rushed to Shilipu to repair the blocking position, and blocked the Japanese army coming back from the direction of the independent regiment. It is now eight o'clock in the evening. No matter when the devils come back, the third battalion must nail me like a nail." You can't retreat until five o'clock in the morning, and then retreat directly to the base area, pay attention to the little devil's plane!"

"The troops directly under the two regiments serve as reserves, ready to go into battle at any time!"

"Two artillery companies, and a heavy machine gun company. The commander handed over our mountain artillery company, and dispersed support troops to attack the city!"

"I'll give everyone an hour to prepare. After an hour, launch the attack on time. Try to enter Laiyuan City in half an hour, and occupy the entire Laiyuan in an hour!"

The military division headquarters, the commander and the chief of staff did not feel sleepy at all, staring at the map laid out on the table without moving.

Following the sound of hurried footsteps, the two looked up at the door of the war room at the same time.

Seeing that it was the communication staff officer who came in, the commander hurriedly asked: "Is it the telegram from regimental commander Chen or the telegram from Wang Ping of the independent regiment!"

"The head of the independent regiment sent a telegram. They have assembled all the remaining troops of the independent regiment to take advantage of the opportunity of the Japanese army returning to Laiyuan City to fight back against the devils! Commander, chief of staff, this is a telegram!" The communications staff hurried back.

After quickly reading the telegram and handing it to the commander, Xiong Botao frowned into a big Sichuan character.

"Commander, although the casualties of the Independence Regiment were not clearly stated at 300:500 a.m., the number of all the troops that can still move is less than [-]. It can be seen that the two days of bloody battles have severely damaged the Independence Regiment. You know, The strength reported by the Independent Regiment before the war was more than [-]!"

"But this is an excellent opportunity to severely injure the Japanese army and take revenge!" the commander replied sharply.

"Wang Ping is very discerning. Such a fighter opportunity is very difficult to come across and must be seized. Call Wang Ping immediately. I agree with him to fight back against the devils, but you must take it easy and control the casualties. Don't give me the independent regiment." It's gone!"
