I have the strongest anti-war system

Chapter 447 Receiving the New Wall and River Defense Line ([-])
two hours later.

Lin Xiao led the three battalions of the Wild Wolf Regiment to the upper reaches of the Xinqiang River as quickly as possible.

When Lin Xiao arrived with his troops, the defenders were already ready to withdraw and handover.

Seeing Lin Xiao's arrival, the officers guarding the position immediately walked towards Lin Xiao.

The leading officer was a colonel, and the rest of the officers were also the commanders of the battalions.

The colonel saluted Lin Xiao, and said, "You are Captain Lin, right?"

Lin Xiao returned the salute, and said calmly, "That's right, I am Lin Xiao, the leader of the Wild Wolf Regiment, and I was ordered to come to defend your regiment's position."

The colonel of the defending army nodded: "Commander Lin, just now our military seat and brigade seat have issued an order, and the position is handed over to your wild wolf group."

"Leader Lin, here is the topographic map of the upper reaches of the Xinqiang River, as well as the detailed defense deployment..."

The colonel of the defending army handed over the defense map and some important intelligence materials to Lin Xiao face to face.

Soon, the two sides completed the task of handing over positions.

"Captain Lin, the responsibility of defending the position will be given to you Wild Wolf Group. I will return to the military headquarters soon, so I will withdraw first!"

The garrison colonel hugged his head, turned around and left with the troops.

"Brothers in the friendly army have worked hard!!!"

Lin Xiao raised his hand and saluted the withdrawing friendly troops as a military salute.

After the friendly troops of the 111th Brigade withdrew their defenses, Lin Xiao led his subordinates into the headquarters left by the defenders.

Lin Xiao spread a nearby topographic map on the table and called his subordinates over.

"Look, all of you, this is the topographic map around the Xinqiang River, as well as the defensive deployment..."

The chief officers of the battalions of the Wild Wolf Regiment gathered around, staring at the deployment map, studying each other's deployment issues.

The defense line on the upper reaches of the Xinqiang River was about three kilometers long, and it was defended from two small nearby villages.

The line of defense is too narrow and long, requiring a large number of troops to defend.

With such a long line of defense, except for the water of the Xinqiang River, there are no other barriers and natural dangers. It is not an easy task to hold the position and prevent the Japanese troops from crossing the river.

At present, the other battalions of the Wild Wolf Regiment have not arrived in this way, and Lin Xiao can only use three battalions.

The three battalions defend such a long line of defense, the troops are too scattered, and the firepower will also be scattered.

Lin Xiao stared at the map and thought for a while, then gave orders to his subordinates.

"Shi Biao, your second battalion is in charge of defending the fishing village on the left!"

"Hu Ergou, your third battalion is responsible for defending the Yanhe Village area on the right!"

"Ma Kui, your cavalry battalion is in charge of guarding the central line of defense!"

"Yes, group seats!!!"

Several people took orders one after another, and then deployed troops according to Lin Xiao's instructions.

Lin Xiao stayed in the headquarters for a while, carefully reading all the intelligence materials left by the defenders.

After some careful observation, Lin Xiao found that there were several defense loopholes that were not easy to detect on the defense map of the defenders, and there were also some blind spots that were not marked on the map.

The most deadly thing is that the terrain on the north and south banks of the upstream defense line is very open, and the river surface is less than [-] meters narrow. This terrain environment is especially suitable for large Japanese troops to land at the same time.

The upstream line of defense was several kilometers long, and the Japanese army could concentrate their forces and launch a cross-river attack at the same time, which made it difficult for the Wild Wolf Regiment to deal with it.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao put away the map and left the headquarters. He personally went to the position to survey the terrain.

Lin Xiao patrolled along the defense line along the river bank, checking the situation of the fortifications.

It has to be said that the officers and soldiers of the 52nd Army are indeed elite troops.

They didn't care about the fortifications in the slightest. Standard field fortifications and firepower fortifications were built on the defense line several kilometers long.

There are fortifications left by the defenders before, which saves a lot of time and energy for the officers and soldiers of the Wild Wolf Regiment.

According to the situation of the position, Lin Xiao ordered the soldiers to reinforce it on the basis of the original fortifications.

Immediately, Lin Xiao notified his subordinates to readjust the deployment of firepower and troops.

Although the Wolf Regiment's lack of strength is flawed, they are equipped with excellent weapons and equipment, which can fully make up for the disadvantage of insufficient numbers.

With the strength of the current defense line and the ferocious firepower of the Wild Wolf Regiment, it is not difficult to resist one or two attacks by the Japanese army.

However, the little devil is not stupid, and he will definitely make tactical adjustments if he suffers a loss.

Therefore, Lin Xiao had to beware of the Japanese army's strong attack and surprise attack.

After inspecting the situation of the position, Lin Xiao called for the communication soldiers.

"Communication soldier!"

"To!"

"Order the battalions to deploy landmines at the front of the position, and arrange a large number of mines on the shore to hinder the Japanese attack and landing..."

"Yes, group seat!"

The communications soldier nodded, and then conveyed Lin Xiao's order to the officers and soldiers of each battalion.

Not long after, the officers and soldiers of each battalion received orders and instructions.

The officers and soldiers of each battalion carried various explosives of landmines, and arranged landmines along the defense line along the shore.

Not only that, the officers and soldiers also picked up tools and dug many mud pits on the shore.

These mud pits can hinder the advance of the Japanese army, and can also cause some damage to the enemy.

The officers and soldiers of the Wild Wolf Regiment are like nails, guarding the position 24 hours a day, maintaining a fighting state at all times.

……

Two days later.

Originally, the follow-up large force of the Wild Wolf Regiment could arrive at Xinqianghe within two days.

However, the roads around Changsha were destroyed everywhere, and the Wild Wolf Regiment had a lot of supplies and vehicles, so the marching speed was relatively slow.

The above are just some reasons for delaying the marching speed of the wild wolf regiment.

The main reason is that the Japanese army discovered the wolf regiment rushing to help, and the Japanese army adopted land and air firepower to block it.

There were several firefights between the large forces of the Wild Wolf Regiment and the Japanese army, and the two sides also fought several small-scale encounters.

There will be Japanese reconnaissance planes for reconnaissance every day, and the large force of the Wild Wolf Regiment cannot escape the blockade of the Japanese army at all.

Therefore, Lin Xiao temporarily changed the marching route of the large army and re-planned the route.

The large force of the Wild Wolf Regiment changed its route, although it could avoid the blockade of the Japanese army.

However, the marching speed will be slower in this way, and it will be a few days later to reach the Xinqiang River.

Since the Japanese army suffered a big loss from the Nara detachment, there has been no movement from the little devil to attack.

Therefore, even if the large army of the wild wolf regiment arrived a few days late, it would not have much impact on the battle situation.

Although the Japanese army did not take any offensive in the past two days, the little devil has not been idle, and has been preparing and deploying for the attack on Xinqianghe.

After the Nara detachment suffered a defeat at Xinqianghe, the strange thing is that the detachment leader Nara Yitian was not punished by the headquarters.

Okamura Ningji only blamed Nara Ichita in the telegram, and the defeat of the Nara detachment was nothing.

Neiji Okamura protected Nara Ichita in such a way that he would not be held accountable because Nara Ichita was an old subordinate of Neiji Okamura.

Neiji Okamura took special care of his old subordinates. Not only was he not punished, but he also added a brigade to Nara Yitian, as well as various weapons and ammunition.
