Chapter 189: It's all about saving you
200 meters of mountain, how many shells do you need to be able to really destroy. In addition to digging tunnels to bury explosives, it is like the Battle of Songshan during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression to recover Burma. It used 3 tons of explosives to blow up the Japanese troops in Matsuyama-ri, using tunnels against the Chinese army.
The Battle of Songshan began to attack in 1944 and was fought hard for three months and three days until September 7. In the initial attack, the Kuomintang troops who counterattacked suffered heavy casualties. Finally, after tunneling, 7 tons of explosives were used to solve the infantry wing, which consisted of only 1,250 men. The Kuomintang army that counterattacked suffered a total of 7,763 casualties (including 4,000 killed), including 50 missing. More than 1,250 Japanese soldiers were killed, and the casualty ratio was 1:6.2, and the number of killed in battle exceeded the number of wounded.
Another famous example is Shangganling, in which the coalition army fired 1.9 million artillery shells, and the volunteer army supplied 16,000 tons of various materials, and the actual consumption was 11,000 tons. Among them, 5,530 tons of ammunition, with an average daily consumption of 128 tons, and a total of more than 40 million shells were fired in the battle, equivalent to 1/4 of the United Nations army.
The coalition side suffered 9,000 casualties, and the volunteer army suffered 11,500 casualties.
The commander of the 6th Japanese Division, Lieutenant General Toshio Tani, of course, did not know the history of these "later generations". Naturally, it is even more impossible to think that digging a tunnel to bury explosives and eliminate the enemy in Tangshan in one fell swoop.
The reason is that although the base of the Chiyou army is in Tangshan, the main combat operation is in the city of Nanjing.
The reason why in the city of Nanjing, especially after the Japanese occupation forces began to drive away the "survivors of the Nanjing Massacre" in the "Nanjing International Security Zone" and selected some of those people to form a puppet police force, was the reason why the Chiyou Army was active in Nanjing.
As for Tangshan, the Japanese army, which was currently fighting in Xuzhou, could not draw fighters or heavy artillery to deal with them. Moreover, it would not be a joke to deal with a Chinese army of less than 1,000 men and use those heavy weapons that the Japanese Army did not have sufficient in the first place.
Tangshan, don't look at the elevation is only about 200 meters, but this is a hilly area in the south of the Yangtze River, although the mountain is not high, but it is not flat. Especially because the caves in the mountain show that this is a stone mountain. As for the cave inside, in addition to digging tunnels, let's talk about nuclear bombs!
In addition, the "dead silence" in the face of rocket minelaying and silent sniping made the Japanese army, which was composed entirely of infantry and a small number of artillery and cavalry, unable to formally confront it. Especially at this time, the Japanese army will not be equipped with any decent flamethrowers.
Friends who are familiar with the history of the war should know that in the Pacific War, when the US Navy attacked the island. The Marines were equipped with a lot of heavy artillery and flamethrowers, and even bulldozer tanks to solve the tunnels.
The reason why we are discussing this is that in the face of such a tunnel operation, the Japanese do not have the ability to attack at all. Not to mention them, the German army in the future "Barbarossa Plan" had no way to deal with the Soviet partisans entering the stone tunnels. Your little Japan, a military that was not very good in World War II, certainly does not have the qualifications to fight against those future weapons systems.
Lieutenant General Division Commander Toshio Tani, who was standing there straight, straightened his neck. Although he wondered why the commander of the occupation forces, Admiral Matsui Ishone, asked about the situation in Yuyama, he still had the courage to report the situation again.
"Sir, this ...... You know, our 6th Division, because during the previous attack on Tangshan, the Takahashi detachment sent suffered huge losses. Therefore, we originally lacked an infantry wing, although before the start of the Battle of Xuzhou, we were replenished, but the training of the supplementary soldiers was not sufficient......! ”
"Nani ......"
The commander of the occupation forces, General Matsui Ishone, rolled his hand at the commander of the general's division, Toshio Tani, a little annoyed, and at the same time squeezed out a word from the depths of his throat to express his dissatisfaction. The successive defeats in the Battle of Yuyama were considered by him to be a disgrace to the Imperial Japanese Army.
From the first squad to the later squadron and Takahashi detachment, almost all of them died in defeat. Because when fighting against the Chiyou army, the number of infantry who can escape back is really scarce. Sometimes he can't understand what happened to the Chinese women who were in the midst of what "The Death of Nanjing" called the "Nanjing Massacre", and who could only endure and beg for help. Could it be that they were turned into "screaming female demons" by the ghosts of the golden Yama king, who got them from the underworld of China?
The commander of the lieutenant general's division, Tani Toshio, who was about to use the lack of troops as a reason, was taken aback. He kept his mouth shut, and slightly returned to the reports he had received from the few soldiers who had fled back from the battlefield. Not only did the "dead silence" of the Chiyou Army cause them to lose their command, but they also cut off contact, and at the same time completely wiped out the supporting machine guns and pointing fire.
Even in the confrontation with the Chinese army, the invincible stabbing tactics became the reason for the greatest casualties of the Japanese army during the attack. Stabbing was the main combat tactic of the Japanese army, and it was one of the reasons why the Type 38 rifle and bayonet were designed to be the longest weapons of World War II.
The offensive tactics of the Japanese Army are often flexible three-way assaults. The frontal attack goes hand in hand with the two sides, and the main attack can become auxiliary at any time according to the battle situation, and the auxiliary can become the main attack. In addition to this tactic, it is to open up the skirmish, make a swift and rapid interspersed split, and when you get closer, use the stab to settle the battle.
This is also the fundamental reason for the lack of automatic weapons in the Japanese Army. Because their infantry tactics are just the essence of the last century.
This tactic was invincible against the Chinese army, when faced with the American army, which was equipped with a large number of automatic firearms in the later stages of the Pacific War. In the face of automatic firearms and the M1911A1 of the U.S. Marine Corps, there is only a share of the beaten farts and pee. In the face of the Soviet army, which was not weaker than the Japanese army in the ability to fight bayonets, and had a large number of automatic firearms and tanks, it was even more helpless.
This was another reason that the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Gu Shoufu, thought of, but he thought about it for a while and put the matter down. He didn't want to tell the commander of the occupation force in front of him, General Matsui Ishone, who was full of anger on his face, that the bayonet tactics against the Chiyou army were outdated. Because the male soldiers of the Chiyou Army often have a revolver in one hand and a hand-made shovel, and the female soldiers have a revolver in one hand and a dagger in the other.
Although the 38 cap is long enough with the bayonet, it is not possible to compare the range of a revolver with a bullet. Even if it is a gunpowder revolver, it can kill people in the American Civil War, and it is naturally not difficult to kill Japanese soldiers at this time.
"I can't tell the commander in front of me that our stabbing tactics were defeated by the weapons of the Chiyou army almost a century ago, so I'm afraid it ......"

The 6th Division of the Japanese Army, as a Japanese standing division, is a very capable unit. But in the Battle of Tangshan, the Japanese 6th Division felt that the confrontation they had against should not exist at all. Because none of the weapons they use have ever been heard of.
For example, the kind of rocket that fires in mid-air has almost no way to measure its trajectory, and naturally it is impossible to fight back. The kind of nasty nails, which only blow up the footboards of people or beat people into eunuchs, made the infantry even more confused.
Gu Shoufu, the commander of the lieutenant general's division, knew that the veterans under his command, in the face of the Kuomintang army's relatively strong firepower, dared to charge fearlessly, and rushed to the opponent's position to start a white-knuckle battle with the opponent.
The Kuomintang army had a very large number of recruits, and the shooting accuracy was quite poor. Moreover, although the rifle equipped by the Kuomintang was designed with reference to the German rifle, the bayonet of the rifle was steelless. Often when fighting with a white blade, it is easy to bend off. The bayonet steel used on the Japanese infantry Type 38 rifle was the best among the participating countries in World War II.
As we said, this was the main tactic of the Japanese army at this time, and it was invincible against the Chinese army. Can deal with the Chiyou army...... No matter how long the bayonet is, it is unlikely that it will have a longer range than a revolver. When the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Gu Shoufu, knew that the other party's revolver was just a nail, and he really admired the skills of those guys in the Chiyou Army.
The barrel of the 38-cap is cut off and equipped with a barrel made of other steel. The rifle was used to reload the shells and gunpowder, and it was such a simple thing that the main means of attack of the infantry of the Imperial Japanese Army, white-knuckle warfare, was broken.
Seeing that his subordinates had been thinking about it for a long time, the commander of the occupation force, General Matsui Ishone, frowned impatiently. In his heart, he scolded the subordinates in front of him, who didn't have long eyes.
"Bagyaru, don't you know I'm saving your bastard's life?"
Seeing that the commander of the occupation forces, General Matsui Ishone, looked even more impatient, the commander of the lieutenant general division, Toshio Tani, quietly gritted his teeth and began his narration.
"Yuyama is a hill with a lot of rocks, and almost the entire mountain bag is made of solid stones. The bombardment of our infantry artillery is really hard to break through their defenses, and they have a lot of new weapons and equipment......"
How could the commander of the occupation forces, General Matsui Ishone, not know these things, the silent sniper rifles, the nails everywhere, the jumping infantry anti-personnel shells, and the kind of rockets that fired in the air. It was precisely because of such things that he understood that the Chiyou Army would be the most dangerous enemy of the Great Japanese Empire in the future.
Don't look at their small number now, but if they are not eliminated early, they will ...... developed.
"Okay, don't say it again, your 6th Division is still known as the elite of our Great Japanese Empire, and you can't even conquer a small Tangshan. You...... You've disappointed me so much! ”
The commander of the lieutenant general's division, Toshio Tani, knew that this was already an angry expression by the moderate commander of the occupation forces, General Matsui Ishone. With the blood on his face welling up with shame, he bent down in fear and said only one word, "Hey! ”
The commander of the occupation forces, General Matsui Ishone, shook his head slightly, and then sighed quietly. He felt that he had put enough pressure on the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Toshio Tani, and that it was time to tell him what he should do.
"Well, I know that most of the infantry of your division is trapped on Tangshan, and now I order you to secretly transfer back your cavalry wing, and we will conduct an intensive search of this area of Nanjing City."
Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and whispered.
"Hey, it's all for you, my Lieutenant General, what will be the fate of the future, just like it depends on the extent of the mission tonight!"
