Chapter 361: The Japanese Army's Chance (First Update!) )
"Eight Geya Road, how long has it been, this independent battalion has grown to 1,500 people, and if you give them a period of time, will it directly grow to 2,000 people, or even 3,000 people!" Watanabe Nakasa finally couldn't help but scold.
"Are you all stupid pigs? The independent battalion has developed so many troops without knowing it, why is it only now found out, why don't you want to destroy it! ”
Tian Chengzhi lowered his head and thought for a long time before he dared to raise his head: "Commander, calm your anger!" ”
"Although the total strength of the independent battalion has reached 1,500 people, most of these people are new recruits, and the civilians who have just put down their hoes have not even touched their guns."
"The veterans who are truly combat-effective are less than 20 percent full, and some troops are not even 10 percent!"
"A unit replenishes so many recruits who do not have any combat effectiveness at once, and I think that this will not only not increase the combat effectiveness, but will greatly reduce the combat effectiveness of the troops because the veterans are scattered!"
At the end of his speech, Tian Chengzhi resolutely closed his mouth, he knew that Watanabe Nakasa must have understood the implicit meaning of his words.
Sure enough, as soon as he shut up, Watanabe Nakasa fell into deep thought.
It took two minutes before he spoke: "You're right! ”
"Replenishing new recruits and expanding strength is the best way to develop strength. But this step of the Eighth Route Army seems to be too big, and if you don't do it, it will backfire! ”
"More than two hundred veterans, if I had to choose, replenishing four hundred recruits at one time is the limit. Otherwise, the combat effectiveness of the troops will not only not be enhanced by the increase in new recruits, but will be greatly reduced because the veterans are too scattered! ”
"Blindly expanding the army and achieving the imperial army, God really help me!"
"You immediately mark the specific location of each company of the independent battalion outside the city, and I will immediately send troops to destroy and kill them!"
"Strike them when they are not fighting and their strength is the weakest, and even if you can't kill them, you will hit them hard!"
Tian Chengzhi breathed a long sigh of relief, knowing that Watanabe Nakasa's anger had subsided.
Hurriedly took out the prepared map and replied: "The specific situation of each company of the independent battalion has been summarized on this map, please check it with Your Excellency the commander!" ”
Opening the map, Watanabe Nakasa's serious face couldn't help but smile.
"Yo Xi, Captain Tian, the map is marked in detail, and almost all the intelligence maps I want to know are marked, very good, I am very satisfied!"
Tian Chengzhi complimented at the right time: "Your Excellency Commander, you are wise! ”
"In order to obtain this information, the lowly special service team has lost more than 20 people, and lost a lot of equipment!"
"It's not that they don't want to sabotage and obstruct the expansion of the independent battalion, it's that the special forces no longer have the strength to do these things. Therefore, the humble position affirms that His Excellency the Commander can support more equipment and funds to the special service team, and the humble position guarantees that as long as the special service team forms combat effectiveness, it will definitely make some impressive achievements for the commander! ”
Watanabe Nakasa looked down on these traitors who sold their ancestors for glory, but he knew that if he wanted to completely control Lingqiu, he couldn't do without these Chinese.
In order to entrap them to sell their lives for themselves and serve as minions of the imperial army, he still hesitated and promised: "Yes, as long as you do your best to do things for the imperial army, the imperial army will definitely not treat you badly!" ”
"The arsenal has just arrived with a batch of weapons, which contains dozens of box guns and submachine guns captured by the Jin Sui Army on the front line, all of which will be transferred to you to equip the special team!"
"As for the funds, the imperial army is also in difficulty, Captain Tian, you have to understand the difficulties of the imperial army and figure out your own way. But I can guarantee you a lot of the monthly military expenses of the special forces! ”
"Your Excellency Commander, wise! I promise to lead the special team, do my best for the imperial army, and be loyal to Your Excellency the Commander! Tian Chengzhi replied with a flattering face.
In fact, the heart has blossomed.
In this troubled world, having a gun is king, and as for money, it's all fake.
With the weapons Watanabe had promised, the special forces could be expanded by at least one squadron. As long as you are willing, you can grab more wealth by yourself.
Tian Chengzhi's compliments and assurances made Watanabe Nakasa very satisfied, and the smile on his face became thicker and thicker.
But it didn't last long, as soon as his eyes shifted to the map, his face returned to seriousness, and then he began to give orders: "You immediately notify the commander of the Imperial Association, all the squadron leaders of the Imperial Army, and immediately report to the headquarters, and in half an hour I will hold a military meeting here, and you will also participate!" ”
Anji Town, which is fifteen kilometers away from Lingqiu County, the road leading to Lingqiu passes next to the town.
In order to ensure the safety of the road, the Japanese army sent a reinforcement team and a large number of puppet troops to the town as soon as they occupied Lingqiu.
After nearly half a year of operation, the Japanese puppet army had built a stronghold on the high ground outside the town near the side of the road.
You can not only guard the highway, but also keep an eye on the whole town.
A three-story brick and concrete turret, with five bunkers scattered around the stronghold, formed the defense system of the entire stronghold.
If there is no siege artillery, it is definitely more difficult to take this stronghold with small arms than to ascend to the sky.
In the forest one kilometer away on the other side of the road, Zhao Wen, the commander of the independent company, and Liu Wenxuan, the instructor, were lying on the ground.
"Company commander, we learned from the mouths of the people in the town that there are more than 60 little devils stationed in the Anji stronghold, not equipped with mortars, but equipped with a heavy machine gun~" The instructor told what he had learned during the day.
"There are nearly 200 people in the Ergouzi puppet army. Originally, there were only more than sixty people, and the others have been expanding little by little through recruitment and pulling strong Ding in the past few months. ”
"Because ordinary people can't get into the stronghold, that's all they can know!"
"In addition, we have figured out the specific location of the turret and all the dark forts in the stronghold, and a few fellows participated in the construction of the stronghold at that time, this is the map!"
Zhao Wenchang sighed and replied: "It's a hard bone!" ”
"If we train independently for another three months, even if it's only two months, I'm confident that I can beat it."
"It's too much to fight now, the main reason is that there are too many recruits in the army, and many people have just learned to be injured, and they haven't even learned tactical movements. Rush to send them to the battlefield, and the casualties cannot be controlled! ”
Liu Wenxuan frowned and reminded: "The casualties must not be too big!" ”
"The battalion commander ordered that we must take the stronghold within an hour, and we must also control the casualties to less than thirty people!"
"And even without this order, the casualties can't be too great!"
"There are too many recruits in the troops, and too many casualties will definitely be a fatal blow to their morale!"
Zhao Wen nodded in acquiescence, and then frowned and fell into deep thought!
"Company Commander Zhao, don't forget us!" The platoon commander of the mountain artillery company lying behind suddenly shouted.
He heard the conversation between Zhao Wen and Liu Wenxuan, and couldn't help but remind!
"We brought two mountain guns and twenty shells."
"The devil's turret and dark fort are all made of brick and concrete, although they can withstand bullets and mortar shells, but they can't withstand mountain artillery shells!"
"As long as you can help us advance the mountain artillery to a position three hundred meters outside the stronghold, I guarantee that one shell will be a bunker, and all the turrets and bunkers in the stronghold will be blown into ruins!"
Zhao Wen's eyes lit up, and he suddenly reacted: "Platoon Commander Li, I almost forgot about you!" ”
"Instructor, the battalion commander has already helped us think about the problems we are worried about, and then let a platoon of the mountain artillery company reinforce us!"
"There are two mountain cannons in hand, no matter how strong the devil is, the turret and the dark fortress are all papier-mâché in front of us, and they have no effect!"
"This time, I not only have to take the stronghold of Anji Town in front, but also train my troops through this battle, so that all the recruits of the Independent Company can see blood!"
