Chapter 90: Shifting Positions
Shrinking in the shadow of the city wall, listening to the chattering voices of the two soldiers standing guard above from time to time, Chen Ming's mood was very good.
The constant conversation shows that these two people are irritable and bored inside, and people who are in this mood have a much higher chance of making a mistake in what they are doing.
He was huddled here, but he wasn't bored, and he was thinking in his mind what he would do if he encountered such a situation in the real world!
In fact, he had already devised more than a dozen ways in his mind to kill the two soldiers silently, but in the game, the resources at his disposal were limited and not enough to support him in this task.
This wait was two hours, and when it was close to half past ten in the evening, he finally waited for his chance!
Changing of the Guard!
For some unknown reason, the changing of the guard of the two soldiers was not in their standing positions, but both went down to the bottom of the city wall.
Seeing this situation, even Chen Ming was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted.
Coming out of the shadow where he was hiding, he only retreated three meters to accelerate, and then jumped up the city wall with agility.
And at this time, the four soldiers who changed the guard had not even completed the normal handover.
Chen Ming didn't want the two soldiers who took over to find him as soon as they looked up, and he didn't come to die after freezing under the city wall for two hours.
Running quickly along the city wall, his goal, from the very beginning, was set on the enemy tower on the city wall.
The reason is also very simple, for such a small county, the enemy tower is the place with the highest height and the best line of sight in the entire county, and he needs such a place for people.
As for retreat, in this era, it is really not a problem for Chen Ming to retreat safely in such a darkless environment in the middle of the night.
Ju County is not big, and correspondingly, the city wall is not long.
When Chen Ming ran to the half-blown enemy building, the newly changed Japanese soldiers had just returned to their posts.
After carefully observing the Japanese sentries after the change of guard, Chen Ming was relieved, these sentries who came over from the change of guard did not look here.
It may be that it is above the city gate, and there is no sentry on the side of the enemy tower, so it may be that it is impossible for someone to do anything in the most heavily defended place of the Japanese army.
Chen Ming, who just looked around, was puzzled, because in the location that was confirmed as the county government, there was no light!
A front-line command post, and it is a command post at the division and regiment level, it is possible to conceal the lights, but it is absolutely impossible to have no lights at all, this is too abnormal!
Taking out the TAC and confirming it again through the sniper scope that can be seen with night vision, Chen Ming was frustrated to find that this so-called command post was really an empty shell!
Except for the two guards standing guard at the door, there was no one here!
Chen Ming frowned, and couldn't help but suspect that the information he got was fake, but looking at the telephone line set up in the distance, he himself denied this idea.
From the point of view of infrastructure construction, this is indeed a relatively large command post of the Japanese army, but at this time it was abandoned for unknown reasons.
Thinking of this, Chen Ming suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, this is not an abandonment!
If it is completely abandoned, there will be no two guards to stand guard, the front line is in full swing, and a soldier is eager to be divided into two and sent to the front line, and it is obviously very unreasonable to waste two combat forces to guard useless houses.
"If you think so, the senior officers here are just leaving temporarily! Then I still have a chance to stay here! Chen Ming reasoned to this conclusion, thinking about it, it shouldn't be a big problem.
I just wanted to set up a relatively hidden sniper position, but I suddenly thought of a piece of information I had seen before. Seishiro Aki once personally led the troops to block General Zhang Zizhong's 59th Army!
Thinking of this, Chen Ming slapped himself hard, ignoring such important information.
Finding a safe place, Chen Ming cut off the game connection, connected to the base host and began to check the information, at that time he just glanced at it, and he didn't remember this information very clearly.
The information was quickly checked, and there was no mention of time on it, just a very simple sentence, board. Seishiro Yuan personally led two brigades to contain Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun's troops in Tangtou Town.
After confirming the accuracy of this information from several different sources, Chen Ming returned to the game again.
He knew that it was a matter of time difference, maybe this was indeed the command post before, but he came to this time period, board. Seishiro Gaki has already taken people to Yutou Town.
It may even be that it has long since left Juxian because of the board. Seishiro Gaki was to rescue the Seya Brigade of the 10th Division, and he pinned down Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun's troops in Tangtou Town, just to serve this goal.
Tangtou Town is very close to Linyi, but it is a little far away from Ju County, and he must rush over while it is dark and try to complete the sniper board before dawn. Seishiro Gaki's mission.
Only by taking advantage of the cover of darkness did he have the confidence to complete the task and retreat with his whole body.
Now the problem in front of him is how to withdraw from Juxian, when he came to take advantage of the change of guard of the soldiers, it will be a little too late to wait until the time for the change of guard again.
Observing the gap that he had just come up from his own direction, the corners of Chen Ming's mouth were hooked, it was not easy to come up, but it was still very simple to go down.
Find an angle and set up the TAC, so that the position of the two sentries is exactly in a straight line.
"Kill two birds with one stone! I don't usually have such a good opportunity! Chen Ming silently adjusted the collimator and calculated the distance between the two.
With a slight push on his fingers, a slight and almost undetectable gunshot rang out, and the two sentries were killed with a single shot and fell out of the walls at the same time.
He didn't get up in a hurry, waited silently for a while, and after making sure that no one in the four places found the shot, he put away the gun and ran quickly to the gap.
With a distance of three meters, it was difficult for Chen Ming to jump off the city wall directly, roll forward to unload the force of the fall, and quickly rushed towards the wilderness.
Ten minutes later, Chen Ming was already on his way to Tangtou Town on his motorcycle.
In this era, there is no road, even if people often walk, it is just a dirt road, and there is no street lamp or any lighting facilities.
Chen Ming didn't dare to turn on the lights on his motorcycle alone, and it took him nearly two hours to stumble, and he hurried to the outskirts of Tangtou Town before twelve o'clock.
When approaching the town, Chen Ming put away the motorcycle, and from a distance he heard a dense gunfire from the direction of the while, obviously the fight was already in full swing here.
He didn't dare to approach the formation, his current position is equivalent to being in an enemy-occupied area, and if he goes any further, he may encounter Japanese troops at any time.
Finding a higher mound, Chen Ming set up TAC and began to observe the situation in the town.
From his direction, it is clear that the most attention-grabbing is the line of fire on both sides of the firefight.
I don't know how many troops were fighting over there, and the flames of the explosions, the flames of the guns and the tracer bullets that streaked across the night sky mingled into a brilliant light of death.
The two sides did not know how long they had been fighting, and it was obvious that the pre-arranged trenches and fortifications were in full shape.
The corpses of the soldiers lay in a haphazard manner in the open space between the two positions, and the blood had already soaked the dirt into bloody mud.
Take your eyes off this tragic tug-of-war, and follow the reserve forces of the Japanese army to the front line to search the town. Seisishiro Gaki's command post must be in the middle of the town.
—————
"General, battle report!" A communicator grabbed a few pieces of paper in his hand, ran briskly to a small mound, and saluted the general, who was holding a telescope to observe the front line.
"Speak!" General Zhang Zizhong has been engaged in an exchange of fire with the enemy here with his men for more than four hours.
According to the previous information, the Japanese Seya Brigade was surrounded on the periphery of Taierzhuang, and most of the Japanese army was approaching Linyi.
As long as the 59th Army led by himself is outflanked from behind, it will definitely be able to wipe out the invading enemy in one fell swoop.
It's just that I didn't expect that the troops advanced to Tangtou Town, but they ran headlong into the Japanese defensive position!
After four hours of onslaught, not to mention the heavy casualties, he was stunned that he did not take this small Tangtou Town, which made General Zhang's face gloomy.
If the battle of Linyi is delayed because of the resistance of these Japanese troops, he, a lieutenant general, will be done!
"The attacking troops on the left flank of Tangtou Town have requested support, and the enemy has formed a strength advantage on the left flank, and the left flank troops have suffered heavy losses!" The communications soldier looked at the information he had just received in his hand and reported loudly.
"Tell them that Lao Tzu won't send a single soldier! Two regiments fight a brigade, let them fight like this, for an hour! If you can't take the left flank position in an hour, let them drink bombs before the battle to serve the country! "General Zhang was in a very bad mood, just now, he had received information that the Japanese army on the opposite side was Ban. The four brigades led by Seishiro Gaki.
The major before went to the assassination board. Seishiro Gaki, but he didn't expect this guy to personally lead troops to intercept him!
It's a pity that the major, it is estimated that he ran for nothing, and he had to give his life!
Seeing that the herald was about to turn around and leave, General Zhang hurriedly stopped, lowered his head and thought for a while: "Order!" The 9th, 15th, and 17th regiments support the frontal battlefield! Be sure to arrive at the position within fifteen minutes. The 103rd regiment supports the right flank! ”
After giving the order, General Zhang picked up the binoculars again and carefully observed the firefight ahead.
-—————
"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General! Frontline Battle! A herald's voice interrupted the board. Seishiro Gaki observed the movements of the battle map, and the noise around him was also a little lower.
Glancing up at the herald, the board. Seishiro Gaki straightened up and motioned for the herald to speak.
"There is a gap on the enemy's left flank, and His Excellency Dazuo requests an attack to advance the battle line by one kilometer!" The herald's voice was like a switch, and as soon as the words fell, the staff officers at the table changed the markings on the map according to the information.
Looking down at the combat map that had been modified, the board. Seishiro Gaki frowned slightly.
The attack on Tangtou Town this time was originally a spur of the moment, and it all relied on the headquarters of the Fifth Division, with no assistance and no foreign aid.
Moreover, there are only four brigades in Tangtou Town, and they are not all members of the Fifth Division.
"Tell the left-wing troops, hold the position, our task is to drag Zhang Zizhong's 59th Army and create an opportunity to rescue Seya-kun! Don't chase and push! Send two companies to supplement the frontal defensive position, I think Zhang Jun should still use this place as a breakthrough! "Plate. After Seishiro Gaki finished speaking, he circled around the military map, if possible, he would be willing to compete with the 59th Army, but not now!
