Chapter 1343 Okamura Ninji's worries
1343 The soldiers of the second wave of Japanese attack had already reached the front of the Chinese position, and those devil officers now knew that both sides were about to run out, and it was up to them to see who could not survive first. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Such casualties, if in peacetime, no one can stand it, but now, no one cares about casualties, as long as they can take the position, or for the Chinese troops, as long as they hold the position, then they will win, and both sides have been holding on.
"Commander, reinforcements have come from the positions on the Chinese side, but it seems that they are the troops on the side of the United States, and most of the troops on the side of the United States are new troops!" A staff officer looked ahead and said to Masachi Ita.
"Yo Xi, the recruits are useless, but they are in the trenches, and if they are attacking, it will not take long to collapse. What I'm worried about is that there are reinforcements coming from behind China, and it's still Chinese troops coming, Baga! Ida Masaki stood there and scolded.
He knew that there would definitely be reinforcements coming over from the Chinese side, and now this is the direction of the main attack, so in other places, the intensity of the attack is not large, and China will send troops to come over to support.
But as long as this side is taken before the support, then there is no problem, and if you want to take the position after the arrival of the Chinese support forces, you will have to pay a huge price.
Moreover, now the price they have paid is already very large, the tanks have lost at least more than 600 units, it looks like it is more than that, and now they have no statistics, the infantry, the troops who have been thrown into the past in front, are almost killed.
The troops in the back were bombed by the Chinese artillery, and there were also great casualties, it is estimated that at least seventy or eighty thousand soldiers were killed, not counting the artillery and air force units in the back, and now the air force is still fighting, and the two sides no longer know how many planes have fallen, and no one can take care of it, just fight!
"Our casualties are also huge, what if we can't break through today?" The staff officer looked at Ita Masaki and said. It is now less than three hours before dark, and after dark, it is inconvenient to attack.
"Then keep fighting at night!" Ida Masaki said.
"Keep playing at night? We, our soldiers, have been fighting for a day! The staff officer heard this, looked at him in amazement, and said.
"The Chinese troops are more tired, from other places, send me 3 infantry divisions over, and 2 armored divisions over, I want to break through from here, immediately go and mobilize over, tonight, we will continue to attack!" Ita Masaki looked at the staff officer and said.
"Hey!" The staff officer heard this, so he had no choice but to go and transfer troops.
On the Alaska side, at this time, Okamura Ninji also received a telegram from the front line, and basically a telegram would come from the front line in half an hour to report on the situation of the frontline operations.
"Commander, the casualties are too great, and now General Ita Masaki's troops, whether they are attacking the main position or other delaying troops today, are estimated to have more than 150,000 casualties." Nara Takeji looked at Okamura Ninji and said.
"More than that!" Okamura Ninji heard it and said more than one word. Nara Takeji heard it, was stunned for a moment, and looked at Okamura Ninji.
"General Ita Masachi knows that it is two days today and tomorrow, if you break through late, it will be useless, and Xiang Feng's troops will arrive soon, if you can break through today, it will be the best.
We can also hold back Hu Bin's main force on the Western Front, so that our other troops can continue to retreat, and if not, then our troops will be transferred to the defense, and the Chinese troops will be dragged from the Western Front, and he knows this very well! Okamura Ninji said as he sat there.
"However, judging from the battle report just sent, it seems that our troops have suffered huge casualties, and the armored forces have also suffered very heavy losses, will they be able to break through tonight?" Nara Takeji looked at Okamura Ninji and asked.
"So I said that the casualties were not only 140,000, maybe 240,000, because he was going to storm the Chinese positions, and that was the only chance we had, and to storm one point, and to intensify the attack in other places.
This time, General Ita Masaki used all the troops that could be used, so the casualties were huge, and if there was no breakthrough during the day today, General Ita Masaaki's troops would continue to attack tonight, this is for sure! Okamura Ninji said.
"Damn, if we fight like this, our front-line attack corps won't last long! Moreover, the attack position chosen by Ita Masaki this time was only one infantry division of China and two infantry divisions of the United States, which did not have many troops at all compared to their entire defense line. And we have to suffer so many casualties there, it's very uneconomical! Nara Takeji spoke.
"There are more than these troops on the Chinese side, they will continue to send reinforcements over, and I estimate that by then, there may be about 8 divisions of troops there, which is equivalent to a quarter of the troops of this defense line over there.
If we can successfully break through here, then it will still be cost-effective, and in other places, we can also annihilate many Chinese troops, and if this battle is fought, we will lose a lot of money, but it depends on whether we can break through! Okamura Ninji sat there and spoke.
"Report, a telegram from the front, General Ita Masaki, once again dispatched troops, ready to continue to attack the Chinese front line tonight!" A staff officer came over with a telegram and spoke.
"How many troops will be transferred?" Okamura asked.
"3 infantry divisions, 2 armored divisions!" The staff officer replied immediately.
"Yo Xi!" Okamura Ninji heard it and nodded, indicating that he knew, and the staff officer saw it and retreated!
"Commander, it seems that General Ita Masaki is determined to take this position, so it's okay!" Nara Takeji looked at Okamura Ninji and said.
"Yes, it's okay, I'm thinking, Hu Bin knows that his frontline casualties are so large, what will he do, and order Xiang Feng's troops to quickly reinforce this side? You help me think about it, is there any other way? Okamura Ninji asked, looking at Takeji Nara.
"What?" Nara Takeji didn't understand for a while, so he looked at him and asked.
"You help me think about it, Hu Bin still has any tricks that are useless, Hu Bin can't be so honest as to watch us attack his troops, he will definitely think of a way!" Okamura Ninji spoke.
"Now that he is on the Eastern Front, and his main forces are on the Eastern Front, what else can he do? The whip is beyond the reach of the whip! Nara Takeji immediately said incomprehensibly.
"No, he must have a way, he must have it, I know Hu Bin, this person fights a war, he doesn't care about the gains and losses of this position, and he will think that those troops on his front line can hold it, so he will definitely have other ways to counter us.
If I don't understand Hu Bin's troop movements for a day, we may fall into huge trouble, and the later we figure it out, the more dangerous we will be, so now we must grasp the situation of Hu Bin's troop movements.
It's a pity that our troops on the Eastern Front are all surrounded, and Canada is still so big, once Hu Bin's troops are secretly mobilized now, we may not even know! Okamura Ninji explained to Takeji Nara!
"You mean to say that now Hu Bin's troops on the Eastern Front may have been mobilized, but we don't know yet?" Takeji Nara continued to ask.
"Yes, just like I am now, my troops look like they are attacking, but they are actually retreating, while Hu Bin's troops may be looking at defense, actually covering the attack of other troops.
Hu Bin, how can it be possible to put more than 2 million troops on the Eastern Front without moving, and let such a small number of troops on the Western Front defend us, Xiang Feng's 300,000 troops are just a cover, he must have other directions, you help me analyze and analyze? Is it our troops on the Western Front, or our troops on the Central Front? Okamura Ninji looked at him and said.
"Troops on the middle line? There aren't many troops over there, we've already drawn a lot, and if we continue to do that, we'll probably have less than 100,000 troops left.
If Hu Bin mobilizes troops to attack the troops on the middle line at this time, I don't think it is very likely, if he really wants to fight, Xiang Feng's troops may fight directly over there! Nara Takeji heard it and immediately helped Okamura Ninji analyze it.
"Yo West, it's really impossible to be in the middle line, that's the west front?" Okamura asked.
"On the Western Front, it is possible, then why didn't he let Xiang Feng bring a little more troops over, if we can't get into the Western Front, the Chinese troops can counterattack, and Xiang Feng's troops, he wants to counterattack, it's still not enough.
If we can break through, then Xiang Feng's troops will be even more insufficient! I don't think it's possible on the Western Front! Nara Takeji continued.
He doesn't know what Hu Bin's troops that may be secretly mobilized on the Eastern Front now, what he wants to do, and the two speculations provided by Okamura Ningji seem to be unlikely!
"Damn, what the hell is he trying to do?" Okamura sat there and sighed, and spoke.
Nara Takeji didn't know, but he still analyzed it tentatively: "Is it possible that Hu Bin wants to completely kill our troops on the Eastern Front and bring the troops to our side together, so that Hu Bin can command more troops in his hands?" ”
"No, Hu Bin didn't fight like this, Barton may fight like this, Hu Bin can't fight like this, you don't know Hu Bin, I understand, he won't fight like this!" Okamura Ninji heard it and immediately shook his head and said.
"But, now we don't know much about the situation over there!" Nara Takeji also said helplessly. (To be continued.) )
