1029. in the first place

The three dogs are now not offended by both ends, they all have to go along with it, whether it is Brigade Commander Qiu or Regiment Commander Liu, they can't afford to offend, but fortunately, Brigade Commander Qiu's ass is not hot now, and he won't move people.

Besides, Liu Guangyu is a good hand in the war, and there is no need to replace him, so the contradictions at the top have not appeared for the time being, and Sangou is still living smoothly.

Under normal circumstances, if a person goes to another unit to serve as the chief officer, after the butt is firmly seated, he will generally install his old subordinates to stabilize the position.

This situation is normal, as long as you don't go too far, the boss also acquiesces, after all, you have your own people, you can carry out your work much faster, work together, and work efficiently.

The key point is that your own people will not stumble on yourself, nor will you move a knife behind your back.

On 18 April, the Central Military Commission issued a statement on the situation of the war after the loss of Nanchang, declaring:

The Battle of Nanchang "has achieved the goal of a war of attrition", and Nanchang was abandoned by the Chinese side on its own initiative, and after giving up, not only did it have no impact on the situation of the War of Resistance Against Japan, but also "turned it into a favor."

This kind of saying good things about themselves is generally just propaganda, for those who don't know much, Sangou they know very well, but they don't know how to say it, and they won't take it seriously.

However, Wang Zhaoming, a traitor who had fled from Chongqing, issued a statement in Hong Kong, claiming that the fall of Nanchang was "a great victory for the Japanese army." This is very shameless, and he is still a Chinese.

The chairman of the committee was very annoyed when he saw this, and at this time the military committee judged that the Japanese army in northern Jiangxi was still in a state of dispersion, and if it could strike a hard blow, it was not impossible to recover Nanchang.

On April 0, all units of the 74th Army were ordered to cross the Jinjiang River to the east and take Gao'an City, the 51st Division advanced from the front, the 58th Division flanked to cover the attack and advance, and the 57th Division was responsible for copying the rear road of the Japanese army.

It's the 51st Division again, and the 51st Division, which has just been fought, serves as the main attack, and the frontal assault seems to be intentional to the 51st Division, but in fact it is not.

Mainly because the 51st Division has just come down from Gao'an, and it is very familiar with the terrain there, and those roads, those mountains, and even every alley in Gao'an City are all in the minds of the commanders of the 51st Division.

On April 1, the 305th Regiment of the Sangou Regiment crossed the Jinjiang River from Pengjiadu, and soon arrived at Wucun, which advanced to the northeast of Longtuanxu, and the enemy in front was no longer the 147th Wing of the 111th Brigade of the 106th Division.

Instead, it was replaced by two infantry wings, the 103rd and 157th Wings, under the 101st Brigade of the 101st Division of Lieutenant General Kaiteng Yaheita (Brigade Commander Major General Yoshishige Saeda), and the 1st Brigade of the 101st Field Artillery Wing.

For the 51st Division of the Three Dogs, changing the soup but not the medicine, the grass, trees, ground and sand in Gao'an are still the same, and the places where the fortifications were dug not long ago, the battles were fought, and the blood was shed are all deeply remembered.

The 51st Division sent the 305th Regiment to the west of Gao'an for a frontal attack, the 306th Regiment to attack Gao'an from south to north, the 30th Regiment to detour back to the northwest of Gao'an for flank attack, and the 301st Regiment as the reserve force of the whole division.

The Japanese army built a strong Dayu Temple fortification outside the west gate of Gao'an, and the 305th Regiment cleared the Japanese outpost position at noon on the day and assembled at the front position of the Dayu Temple fortification.

Dayu Temple is actually a temple north of Shiguling, in the war-torn era, this famous temple in the south of the Yangtze River was not spared, and was blown up by Japanese bombs.

The Japanese army took the Dayu Temple as the center and built a large number of fortifications around the perimeter to guard the forward position outside the west gate of Gao'an City, in an attempt to block the attack of the Chinese people.

The three battalions of Sangou were responsible for attacking the forward positions of the Japanese army, which belonged to a place about 600 meters away from the Dayu Temple, and belonged to the salient.

Sangou didn't quite understand why the Japanese army set up such a strange formation at first, and when he arrived at the front of the position, he looked through the telescope and found out the reason for the Japanese army.

It turns out that the main position of Dayu Temple is the transportation hub outside the west gate of Gao'an, which regulates the west, south and north roads, but this place is indeed a wilderness that can be defended without danger, and it is easy to attack and difficult to defend.

Therefore, the Japanese army found a small hill 600 meters west of the main position as a forward position, which could be regarded as a little terrain support and a defensive support point for the forward position.

But this place in modern warfare, like chicken ribs, first of all, a little farther away from the main position, more than 400 meters away, lost the effectiveness of mutual support and crossover of firepower.

Secondly, the area of this hill is very small, and there are many trenches dug on it, and there are not many people, and the troops do not dare to deploy, it seems that at most, only one Japanese squad of infantry can be placed.

Finally, and the most deadly, it belongs to the salient, which is attacked on three sides, and the Japanese army probably also sees this outpost position as a chicken rib, so there is not much operation.

Even the houses within 400 meters of the west, south, and north directions have not been demolished, which is very fatal, and will not only affect the shooting range, but will also become a good place for the opponent to hide.

Sangou saw these houses at a glance, and immediately before dark, let the troops spread out and disperse into these houses, Sangou faced a small team of Japanese troops, and did not underestimate the enemy too lightly.

If in the field, a small squad of infantry of the Japanese army, Sangou will not pay attention to it at all now, almost one infantry company, it can be solved.

At present, the infantry companies of the three battalions are equipped according to the reinforced companies, with more than 150 people, all of them are regular rifles, plus squad machine guns and grenadier groups.

The Japanese squad numbered about 50 people, three light machine guns, several grenadier groups, and the others were 38 rifles, that is, the firepower of a platoon of the infantry company of the 3rd battalion.

But now the infantry squad of the Japanese army occupies a slightly favorable terrain on a small hill, and occupying favorable terrain is equivalent to having the initiative in defense, and Sangou does not dare to take it lightly.

Although it was the main attack of the Seventh Company this time, Sangou equipped the Seventh Company with a mortar group and a heavy machine gun group of the machine gun company to provide the strongest fire support.

However, Xiucai still hoped not to carry out positional warfare, and at night and night, the Seventh Company launched an offensive, and the method of play was very simple, that is, to use the house in front of the Japanese position, and after deploying troops, he suddenly used the advantage of firepower to carry out a surprise attack.

The lethality and suppressive power of heavy machine guns are indeed god-like in the face of an enemy who is mainly small arms, even if the Japanese army is hiding in the trenches on the hills.

A slight upward fire was enough to suppress most of the Japanese firepower, and the Japanese army still had a few light machine guns that were not honest and occasionally came out to shoot a few bursts.

However, the Japanese army had no choice, and the first time it came up, it was a strong attack, and there was no tentative or fire detective, and it was a real fight.

Faced with the danger of the position, the Japanese army did not dare to hide the machine gun position, and the light machine gun had to take the risk to fight under the suppression of medium and heavy machine guns.

This outcrop is just in line with the appetite of the mortar group of the machine gun company, waiting for you, the mortar immediately rang out, and after blowing up one of the Japanese light machine guns, several other light machine guns were too frightened to make a sound.
