Chapter 505: The Great Purge: Confusion
"Strange, what the hell has Tiger Roaring Ridge been doing recently, why hasn't there been any movement at all?"
Hikaru Fujita put down the red and blue drawing pencil and magnifying glass in his hand, and stood in front of the table thinking hard, beside him, Sakai Hirobumi and Aoki Lang stood solemnly, waiting for his instructions.
After not seeing him for a few days, Hikaru Fujita was obviously much haggard, his beard had not been shaved for a while, and his blue-black beard protruded from his chin, and he looked several years older.
Recently, there have been too many things that have not gone well with Hikaru Fujita, the death of Norika Fujita and the disappearance of Shishi Fujita have greatly increased the pressure on his heart, and the attack on the headquarters has also made him frustrated.
Why did every confrontation with Luo Xiao end in his own failure? Hikaru Fujita pondered this question whenever he had time, but he just couldn't get the answer he wanted.
Recently, Tiger Roaring Ridge suddenly fell into calm, and all attacks stopped, but the dragon wing and stinger teams on the periphery were very active, and frequently exchanged fire with the Japanese sweeping troops, which doubled the pressure on the Japanese army.
For the purpose of safety, Commander Domen Jiro shrank his forces and concentrated the troops that were originally distributed within a radius of dozens of miles to the critical position of guarding the only passage out of the Tiger Roaring Mountain, which could not only echo each other and facilitate defense, but also increase the frontal defense force to prevent the troops of the Tiger Roaring Ridge from forcibly breaking the passage to the bottom of the mountain.
With the setback of the sweeping assault and surprise attack, the Japanese army changed its methods and began to implement a siege policy, and they built a large number of pillboxes and fortifications in front of the Tiger Roaring Ridge Mountain, firmly blocking the passage out of the Tiger Roaring Ridge Mountain.
In this way, only a part of the troops needs to be left behind, and the connection between Tiger Roaring Mountain and the mountain can be blocked, cutting off their main way of obtaining provisions.
There is no food, even if there is no advanced weapons and equipment, it is useless, the Japanese army seems to be planning to trap Luo Xiao and others, and when they are hungry and have no combat effectiveness, they will easily take it when the time comes.
Naturally, this could not be done in the short term, but Jiro Tamen had already made a report beyond the Kwantung Army Headquarters, and obtained the consent of the commander Honjo Shigeru to besiege Tiger Roaring Mountain.
The current Tiger Roaring Ridge is like a hedgehog full of spikes, and the Japanese army can't bite it, and it is definitely unwilling to give up, so this method can only be adopted.
I don't know why, Hikaru Fujita always felt a faint uneasiness in his heart, as if Tiger Roaring's performance was too calm.
Supposedly, knowing that the Japanese army was preparing to adopt siege tactics, Luo Xiao should organize his troops to launch a strong attack and disrupt the Japanese army's actions to build pillboxes and fortifications, and not let them form a strong blockade line.
Once the blockade with the blockhouse as the pillar and the fortification as the chain is completed, then the Tiger Roaring Ridge will become a lonely peak, without supplies and reinforcements, and the result will be very tragic.
Fujita Hikaru believed that Luo Xiao must have seen this, but he did not take any action for a long time, and let the Japanese army toss.
These days have passed, and most of the more than 100 bunkers of the devils have been built, and the fortifications are endless, covering a valley in front of the Tiger Roaring Ridge layer by layer, and it may not be easy for Luo Xiao to attack even if they want to, even if they can be defeated, they will suffer heavy casualties.
"Why, why in the end, Luo Xiao is still holding his troops, there must be something wrong here." Hikaru Fujita frowned, thinking hard.
He walked to the sand table and carefully observed the military deployment of both sides, hoping to find some clues from it.
On the sand table made according to the proportions, all the peaks are accurately made on it, although there is still a little error with the field, but it is generally very close.
The endless mountain peak was Tiger Roaring Ridge, and three of the four sides around him were steep cliffs, only the northeast side had a slight slope, and a road led to the mountain range, which now started from the middle section of the treacherous hundred-step stream and continued to the mountain, all under the control of Tiger Roaring Ridge, and six super fortresses were built. The devil was stuck in front of the first superfortress, and he still hasn't made an inch.
These superfortresses are too powerful, equipped with fierce automatic machine gun fire, and the steep mountain terrain makes it difficult for the Japanese army to send a small number of people at a time, which is equivalent to sending them as targets.
The mountain road from the hundred steps down to more than three miles was all under the control of the Japanese army, and 30 pillboxes and more than 50 fortifications were spread over top of each other, extending to a gentle depression under the mountain road.
This depression is more than ten miles long and wide, the ground is flat, the area is very wide, and the gentle hills on both sides are very suitable for troops to be stationed, and now they are full of Japanese troops, and the military camp is densely covered with most of the valley. It's a spectacular view.
According to the current situation, it is very difficult for Tiger Roaring Ridge to break the blockade, and even if it breaks through the more than 30 pillboxes, there are still a large number of Japanese troops in the depression behind.
Losing the advantage of the terrain, the more than 20,000 Japanese troops are not vegetarians, and it will definitely be a fierce battle at that time, and it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose.
Hikaru Fujita stared at the small flags planted on both sides on the sand table, and fell into deep thought, thinking about the possible tactics of Tiger Roaring Ridge.
But no matter how he came up with all kinds of tactics, he was overthrown by himself in the end, because even if he did that, he would definitely pay a very heavy price in the end, a price that Luo Xiao couldn't bear.
You must know that even if the Japanese army fights out more than 20,000 people, there will be a steady stream of troops to support it, but Luo Xiao can't, the current troops are all his family foundations, and without the troops, he will become a toothless tiger, and he can't make any waves.
If they don't attack, it's not a good way for Tiger Roaring Ridge, even if they have a lot of food reserves, but there are tens of thousands of people on the mountain, and the daily consumption of so many people is very amazing, one month can support it, what about three months? What about half a year? What about a year?
When the time comes, what awaits Tiger Roaring Ridge is still a desperate situation.
"Luo Xiao, what are you planning?" Fujita Hikaru muttered to himself in a low voice, he didn't believe that Luo Xiao didn't have any plans to wait for death, there must be some plan that he didn't want to be known.
This is most likely a shocking plan, and there is a mortal danger to the Japanese troops around Tiger Roaring Ridge, and if you can't see through Luo Xiao's plan, it will be a terrible nightmare waiting for the Japanese army.
He will do his best to prevent the implementation of this plan.
With this in mind, Hikaru Fujita once again devoted himself to the analysis of the intelligence, and did not even bother to look at the lunch brought by the orderlies.
As the minutes ticked by, there was silence in the team headquarters of Nobunaga's special assault team, except for the sound of Hikaru Fujita flipping the paper, and the occasional rustle of the tip of his pen across the paper.
