Chapter 21: Brigade Commander, Request Air Support!
"Made, the little devil is still the same! Go, order the commander of the first company, bring me two heavy machine guns to shoot at the flank position, and be sure to block the flank attack in the Devil City! Zhang Dabiao saw Miyamoto Taro's movements from afar, sneered, and immediately ordered the herald lying on the edge of the trench.
The herald of the first battalion suddenly responded: 'Yes, battalion commander! He immediately ran along the trench to the flank to deliver the order.
Under the command of Li Yunlong, the new regiment was already a very good unit for dealing with the Japanese army, and for the Japanese army's offensive routines, a small soldier of the new regiment knew the devil's routines to attack.
In the midst of the artillery fire, the guns and artillery of the position rang out in unison, but after Zhang Dabiao's order came out, the commander of the first battalion and the first company had already made preparations and commanded two heavy machine guns to fire fiercely at the Japanese troops attacking on both flanks of the frontal position on Zuojiapo.
"Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da!"
The heavy machine gun that Li Yunlong exchanged from the system was a Makqin heavy machine gun, and the bullet tube was enough, and the red-hot bullets hit the little devil's body like marbles, either dead or maimed, and the Japanese troops who tried to attack from the two flanks of the frontal position on Zuojiapo suffered heavy casualties.
"Okay, haha, kill the brothers, call me!" Zhang Dabiao shouted, and with a light machine gun in his hand, he lay on the edge of the trench and fired fiercely at the attacking Japanese troops under Miyamoto Taro.
Although Miyamoto Taro ordered the attacking Japanese troops to disperse the attack, he also ordered a Japanese army to flank the position of Zhang Dabiao's battalion from the two flanks of the frontal position.
However, under the command of the commander of the first battalion and one company, the route of the devil's flank attack had already been disabled.
"Baga, damn it! A bunch of rubbish! "During the five-minute attack, the Japanese attacked the Zuojiapo position, and under the fire of the Lijiapo position and their own Zuojiapo position, they suffered heavy casualties and had to temporarily retreat to prepare for the next round of attack.
The grassroots officers at all levels of the Japanese army who were bloodied by Miyamoto Taro Mad's dog were speechless, and in the past, they were invincible against the Chinese army, but they did not expect that the new regiment that had repeatedly fought against Li Yunlong actually suffered great losses, and the grassroots officers at all levels of the little devils were also faceless.
"Captain Miyamoto, the brigade commander has come to you to discuss the military situation!" Just when Miyamoto Taro was scolding and scolding the devil officers at all levels under him, a Japanese military herald trotted to Miyamoto Taro to convey the order.
Miyamoto's face was gloomy, and he waved his hand and said, 'Got it! He turned around and said to the devil officers at all levels under him: "Prepare to rest and wait for my order!" ”。
"Hayi, Your Excellency Wing Captain!" The devil officers at all levels of the Zhongsakatian Wing looked at each other, and immediately did not dare to hesitate and said.
Taro Miyamoto followed the herald of the devil to Jiro Abe's temporary field brigade headquarters.
"Brigade Commander!" As soon as he entered the military tent of Abe Jiro's headquarters, Miyamoto Taro saw Abe Jiro with a gloomy face, and it seemed that he was definitely not in a good mood when he faced Abe Jiro's questioning next.
Abe Jiro looked up at Miyamoto Taro, waved his hand and immediately said, "Miyamoto Taro is here, then the chief of staff will report the current battle damage now!" ”。
Abe Jiro's brigade chief of staff, Chiba Taro, also had a bad face, and spread out the statistical results of the battle and said: "So far in the first round of attacks, our total strength of more than 4,600 imperial warriors, only the first round of attack, a total of more than 500 imperial warriors have been killed, and the loss of the new regiment of the Chinese army, according to our observation, is only less than 50 people!" This is our shame! ”。
"Hey!" The devil officers could only pause heavily and say, there is no doubt about Chiba Taro's battle loss statistics, after all, they are all visible.
Abe Jiro waved his hand to let Chiba Taro sit down, and then said gloomily: "Under the command of Li Yunlong, the new regiment broke through from Cangyunling, and killed the wing headquarters of the Sakata Wing with a few shots, so that the Wing Commander Sakata Nobuzhe and other imperial officers in the wing headquarters were all killed!" Since then, the new regiment has broken through from Cangyun Ridge, and in the Lock Demon Valley, the Sakata United team was ambushed by the new regiment and suffered heavy casualties! Now, we are attacking Xiaolizhuang here, and the troops have suffered heavy casualties! There are only about 3,000 Imperial soldiers left who can still fight! The loss is too great! ”。
Okamoto, chief of staff of the Sakata Wing, did not wait for Taro Miyamoto to get up, and got up in time and said: "Brigade commander, the new regiment is under the command of Li Yunlong, relying on the unique terrain of Xiaolizhuang in front of us, plus the commanding heights of Zuojiapo and Lijiapo on both flanks of Xiaolizhuang, forming a cross-firepower design for us. Otherwise, even if you invest the remaining Imperial warriors, you will suffer heavy casualties! ”。
After a pause, he continued: "However, the Chinese army has deployed mortars and heavy machine guns at the commanding heights of the two wings to shoot condescendingly at the imperial soldiers attacking the mountain, and the side fire from the commanding heights of the two wings will also be supported. And the Xiaolizhuang position is behind the commanding heights of the two wings, forming a concave triangular firepower network zone! ”。
"What do you mean?" Abe Jiro waved his hand and said with a bad face. At the beginning of the war, he laughed at Li Yunlong for not running away and defending in the narrow place of Xiaolizhuang, where did he think that the combat effectiveness of the new regiment, the tactical cooperation, and the geographical advantage of the blocking position here, a Japanese attack made the loss of the troops in Abe Jiro's hands so big, and slapped Abe Jiro in the face.
Okamoto said slyly: "Brigade commander, the new regiment of China is so fearless to block here, it is estimated that we do not have the protection of heavy artillery and tanks to attack, so I think that we must ask for the support of the Imperial Aviation at Yangmingbao Airport!" ”。
"Nani? Request support from aviation? Instead of being surprised as he imagined, Jiro Abe felt a little surprised.
"Hayi, brigade commander! The Yangmingbao airfield is less than half an hour's flight from Hengshan, and we ask for the air bombardment of the air force to carry out a fierce bombardment of the positions of the new regiment from the air. Okamoto Lang paused heavily and said, if you want to request support from tanks and heavy artillery at the moment, there is no way nearby, after all, this is a mountainous area, and it is difficult for heavy artillery and tanks to reach the front of Xiao Li Zhuang.
And air support is much faster, and the time is also fast, which is the best way that Okamoto has thought of at the moment. Otherwise, with the current strict defense of the new regiment in Xiaolizhuang, even if the Japanese army concentrates all its current forces to attack, it will suffer heavy casualties under the crossfire of the new regiment in a short period of time, and the key is that it is unlikely to break through the resistance of the new regiment.
