Indeed, although Yang Chen was well aware of the unbearable history of the Japanese 4th Division, God knows whether the 4th Division would be forced by the order of Shangfeng to launch a general attack on the defenders of the Tiger Ben Regiment without fear of death.

Even if Wang Gui had 500 white phosphorus bombs in his hands, if he wanted to defeat a class A division, he was afraid that it would not be so easy.

Therefore, this is also the reason why Yang Chen is eager to attack.

Dong Qiwu, Sun Lanfeng and the group leaders under their command were all full of enthusiasm when they heard this.

Among them, Dong Qiwu and Sun Lanfeng said in unison: "Commander Yang, what are your plans, even if you command, we will definitely take your lead!"

"Yes!" Yang Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "The so-called soldier is fast, I have already said just now, this time we have to take the initiative!"

Passive defense, it is never possible to crush the opponent! If you want to do it once and for all, you can only take the initiative!

This time, all our reinforcements have arrived, and I have decided to take the initiative to attack overnight while the enemy has not grasped the reality of our army and is in the midst of a new defeat!"

"Commander Yang, you and your reinforcements came overnight, are you resting for one more night, and you can push back if you take the initiative to attack!" Wang Leizhen, the head of the Yellow King Regiment, frowned and suggested.

Yang Chen had already heard of the name of the Yellow King Regiment, and he admired Wang Leizhen very much.

If all the Chinese officers were as fierce and fearless as Wang Leizhen, it can be said that the Japanese army wanted to occupy so much land in China, which was tantamount to a fool's dream.

"Captain Wang, you only know one thing, but you don't know the other!" Yang Chen explained: "We have traveled a long way, and we really need to rest when we come on a quick march!

But I can't rest at this time, because when the devil learns of the arrival of my Tiger Regiment, he will definitely try to mobilize reinforcements again.

The 4th Division of the Japanese Army may also take the opportunity to launch an attack on the defensive positions of our Tiger Regiment.

So, we have to fight quickly, and the longer it drags on, the worse the situation will only get for us. ”

After listening to this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Dong Qiwu asked, "I don't know what detailed battle plan you have, Commander Yang?"

"Attack at night!"

After a pause, Yang Chen's eyes swept around and continued: "The specific battle plan is like this, tonight I will personally lead the cavalry to detour behind the enemy, and you and my Tiger Ben Regiment infantry will attack from the front!"

Let's fight back and forth, and strive to win the battle and defeat the 108th Division of the Japanese Army!"

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Yang Chen said to everyone seriously: "Everyone, I know that with our current strength, it is not advantageous to take the initiative to attack!"

But I can tell you unequivocally that this will be our only chance to defeat the Japanese 108th!

Because even if we can hold the positions on the Western Front, or then crush the Japanese 108th Division later.

But if the defenders of the eastern front of our Tiger Regiment could not hold out and were broken through the defensive line by the Japanese 4th Division, then what was the point of our victory?

Therefore, the opportunity must not be lost, and the loss will not come again! As a soldier, even if there is a risk in killing the enemy to serve the country, what is there to fear?

From ancient times to the present, there has never been a 100% victory rate in that battle!

Even if you are a bully, there are often times when you lose!

For example, during the Three Kingdoms period, Yuan Shao took the initiative to initiate the Battle of Guandu, and then Cao Cao took the initiative to launch the Battle of Chibi, and Liu Bei took the initiative to launch the Battle of Yiling!

Strength does not necessarily mean victory; Weakness does not necessarily mean failure!

I believe that as long as all our soldiers can not be afraid of life and death, everyone will fight bravely!

The final victory will be ours! Because I believe that man will conquer heaven!"

"Rest assured, Commander Yang, we will definitely do our best to kill the enemy! Even if we stain the battlefield with blood and serve the country with our bodies, we will definitely not take half a step back this time!

In this battle, if you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent!"

All the officers made solemn statements one after another.

"Good!"

Yang Chen nodded heavily: "Then tonight's battle, please leave it to you!"

"Please rest assured, Head Yang! If it weren't for your army's timely support this time, we would have all served the country with our bodies and died on the battlefield!

So if you can live a little longer, it is also snatched from the hands of Lord Yama, and it is earned!

Therefore, I dare not say anything else, but if this attack does not break through the devil's defense, we would rather die than return!"

Everyone stood up and promised with solemn faces.

After the arrangements were made, Yang Chen and them went their separate ways to prepare.

Ten minutes later, the cavalry completed the assembly, the reconnaissance battalion plus the cavalry battalion, there were more than 780 people in total, and in the previous battle, only thirty or forty cavalry were lost.

However, they killed at least 3,000 devil soldiers in the rush.

The battle loss ratio was 1:100, and this kind of result was something that other troops could never have dreamed of.

Yang Chen led the cavalry to take advantage of the night to make a detour to the right side of the position, that is, due north, towards the rear of the 108th Division of the Japanese Army.

Sun Lanfeng's 211 Brigade, plus Dong Qiwu's 218 Brigade, had a total of more than 2,000 capable soldiers left, and the rest were seriously wounded and could not continue to participate in the battle in a short time.

The second, third, and fourth battalions of the Tiger Regiment and the machine gun battalion together were almost 2,200 people.

Coupled with the cavalry of the Tiger Regiment, there are almost 5,000 people on the side of the Chinese army.

After this day and night of fierce fighting, especially the cavalry charge of the Tiger Regiment, the 108th Division caused a large number of casualties.

As a result, its total strength is only more than 12,000 people, and many of these troops are wounded.

In terms of troops, the Chinese military may not have an advantage.

However, on the Japanese side, excluding some wounded soldiers, plus some artillery, baggage logistics troops, etc., its use as infantry is roughly equivalent to that of the Chinese army.

In terms of combat effectiveness, the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Regiment, because of the blessing of the Great Pill, are completely beyond the strength of these sleepy devil soldiers.

The 211 Brigade and the 218 Brigade may not be as good as the Japanese army in terms of individual quality.

But with the arrival of the Tiger Bentuan, they are at the time of their momentum at this moment.

Coupled with the low morale of the devils, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers on both sides will not differ too much.

In terms of equipment, the Tiger Regiment has an automatic weapon, and its machine gun battalion even has a large killing weapon such as Vulcan Gatling, and in terms of firepower configuration, the Tiger Regiment can almost kill the 108th Division of the Japanese Army in an instant.

The 211 Brigade and the 218 Brigade, as Fu Yisheng's descendants, are not weaker than the 108th Division of the Japanese Army in terms of field artillery firepower and no tank armored vehicles, but also the configuration of light weapons is not weaker than that of the 108th Division of the Japanese Army.

Therefore, as long as Yang Chen's Tiger Regiment cavalry can successfully raid, the Japanese 108th Division will inevitably be in chaos when it is under the enemy's back.

At that point, it will not be impossible to defeat them.

This time, Yang Chen left Xu Hailang behind and was responsible for directing the charge of the infantry of the Tiger Ben Regiment.

Yang Chen left with the cavalry for about an hour, and Dong Qiwu, Sun Lanfeng, and Xu Hailang also commanded their own troops and completed the assembly in the left, middle and right positions of Niushou Mountain.
