"These devils were born in the night, and when they went to war, they were as hateful as the devils!"

Matsui Terudai's expression, a little artistic, and a little westernized, will not be liked by the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Toshio Tani. However, as the most headache for the Japanese army in the squadron, the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Toshio Tani, could not ignore it.

"That's a very nasty army, and based on the available intelligence, we can conclude that they are not very numerous. But even a force with such a small number of people can exert such a powerful combat capability on Tangshan. ”

Tangshan near Tangshan Town outside Nanjing is just a small hill with an elevation of about 200 meters, not very steep. What kind of troops could be on such a hill and inflict heavy losses on the Takahashi detachment of the Japanese army, consisting of 1,800 people.

With this in mind, the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Toshio Tani, believed that he should support the opinion of Matsui Terudai. It was clear that to clear this army, then the attacking Takahashi detachment would have to receive more resources.

But more resources, which will affect the operations of the 6th Army Division in Xuzhou, which is beyond the control of Lieutenant General Division Commander Gu Shoufu.

"Your opinion is that we must win this battle, no matter what the cost? So Matsui Daisa, have you considered the price we paid, as an officer, you should have thought about such a question! ”

"Yes, sir, I know something about this army. Especially after the battle in Tangshan this time, I think it is necessary to destroy them. What's more, it would be a terrible thing if their strange weaponry was known by the squadron on the other side of the river and equipped on a large scale! ”

Standing up with a red-beaten and tear-stained face, Matsui Teru Daisa still did not change himself and his original intention. He himself knew that this was not only because of the necessities of war, but also because of his personal need to be ashamed.

"Okay, the Xuzhou strategy is about to start, so this matter still needs to be approved by the superiors, and it will take time! Until then, your gendarmes will have to cooperate fully with the Takahashi detachment and control the situation near Tangshan. Be careful not to get them running away from there! ”

In the end, Matsui Teru finally persuaded the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Tani Toshio, that the battle of Tangshan, which had already paid heavy casualties, could not be stopped, but that more troops should participate, and try to capture the leader of the other side alive, otherwise he would have to get detailed information on the weapons and equipment used by the other side.

Especially the kind of silent grenade launcher, and the kind of weapon capable of firing dense grenades at the same time. These are the two weapons that pose the greatest threat to infantry attacks, and if there is no detailed information and the corresponding restraint strategy or equipment cannot be carried out, then the Chinese strategy dominated by the Imperial Japanese Army may end in failure.

Matsui Teru Daisa tried his best to make the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Toshio Tani, understand that this was definitely not for the sake of sensationalism. Because if you look at it a little from afar, you will find that these two types of equipment will greatly change the existing ratio of advantages and disadvantages on the battlefield.

Compared with the Japanese army, the squadron is undoubtedly extremely inferior. So dare you imagine that all the squadrons began to use that kind of silent and dense grenade launchers. Then at a distance of two to three hundred meters, there is no safe moment for the infantry.

Do you dare to imagine that the squadron is massively equipped with equipment that can throw a large number of grenades at the same time. Then between 300~600 meters, there will be no possibility of infantry wave charge. This time to end the Japanese army, the best way to attack.

It is true that the morale and command of the squadron are extremely flawed. But the problem is that these two pieces of equipment will make the casualties of the Great Japanese Imperial ** in the war reach an unbearable level. After all, the Japanese Empire is not like China, which has extremely abundant human resources. And their government and army don't care about casualties at all.

The Great Japanese Empire simply could not afford to consume so many people, just like a small Tangshan offensive and defensive battle, which lost 1,000 imperial soldiers. So how many people does China have to lose in order to really occupy or win the war.

Prior to this, the casualties in the battle were also a headache for the Japanese military. But they never believed that China was invincible. In their eyes, China is a poor, backward country with constant internal strife.

Such a country, despite its huge territory and abundant human resources, will still not be a country that the Great Japanese Empire fears. So now, two new weapons and equipment appear on the battlefield, and when facing the Chiyou army, you will find that new equipment emerges in endlessly.

Then it can be said that there is at least one of them who is an extremely good scholar in the military industry, otherwise they would not have been able to design such weapons and equipment. Such a person, combined with China's rather inferior production capacity at this time, would undoubtedly lead to disaster.

Just like "nail mines" and "hail personnel anti-personnel bombs", such extremely cheap weapons and equipment will greatly change the balance of power on the battlefield. Therefore, solving this army is a necessary choice.

Since the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Toshio Tani, agreed with him, he intended to fully support them. However, he also put forward the condition, that is, the results that must be achieved in some battles must not be missing.

"I'll send you reinforcements, but no matter what, do what you're talking about. Even if you don't catch the leader of the other party, you must get all the weapon information! ”

The commander of the lieutenant general's division, Tani Toshio, was a bit of a gambler at this time, and unlike a junior officer, he could not fail to consider the cost of operations. The "cost" of the battle of Tangshan in front of him has greatly exceeded the expectations and bearing capacity of Lieutenant General Division Commander Toshio Tani.

However, under the analysis of Matsui Terusa, and at the same time, under the assurance he had given to the commander of the occupation forces, General Matsui Ishine, he had to bring the Battle of Tangshan to a successful conclusion. Although the number of casualties at this moment has far exceeded his expectations, if he can get information on the other party's weapons and equipment, then these costs will be worth it.

If he doesn't fight, I don't know what will happen to the Chiyou army on the mountain in the future, and Gu Shoufu, the commander of his lieutenant general division, is afraid that he will have to bear all the responsibility. The result will be bleak and frightening!

Because it will not only be the responsibility for the defeat, but also for everything that happened in Nanjing. Even if there is an unfavorable battle, I am afraid that there will also be the responsibility of not being strict in controlling the subordinates. And defeat in battle is the best excuse to punish yourself.

So he couldn't help but gamble everything and raise the stakes.

“…… You go back to the front, and for the time being, stabilize the defensive line, and wait for me to bring in more troops. And this matter is quite difficult to do, please work the front! ”

The last sentence not only pinned a lot of hope, but also had a sense of apology in it. After all, Matsui Teru's face in front of him is like a red apple. It's a pity that this color, when it appeared on Matsui Hui Daisa's face, buried that color.

"Hi"

In this regard, Matsui Teru Daisa only replied with one word, but as a junior officer, he was very satisfied.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― returned to the front, Matsui Teru Daisa, brought the order of the commander of the lieutenant general's division, Toshio Tani, to Taiichi Takahashi. Then they did their best to use the available forces and the military police that Matsui Teru Daisa could draw to establish a defensive system with artillery and machine guns as sufficient, and infantry pillboxes, trenches, and foxholes as a circle. For this reason, they have narrowed the battle line, and the regular battle line will enable the soldiers to put up the fiercest and most stable resistance to the strange fighting style of the Chiyou army.

But none of them, including Takahashi Taiyi and Matsui Teru, expected that the Chiyou army who was surrounded on the mountain was like going crazy. This is clearly different from the previous time, when they were dormant, and only carried out some sneak attacks on sentinels or plundered convoys.

They are constantly harassing 24 hours a day, such as firing at positions at night or silently killing a careless soldier every few minutes during the day.

If only that was enough, but they attacked when others were well fed, and shot and opened fire while others were sleeping. Otherwise, a nail mine was thrown, so that the soldiers in the trenches had to wear shoes like stilts.

During the day, the main job of the soldiers was to clean up the extremely sensitive "nail mines" that could only be tried to explode but could not be dismantled, and to prevent snipers from shooting them when they would be killed.

For this reason, Taiyi Takahashi and Matsui Teru Daisa, both felt that they had signs of nervous breakdown.

"When is this kind of life a head!"

No matter how painful Matsui Terui Daisa and Takahashi Taiicho were, the harassment of Chi Youjun continued day and night. It feels like a flea has jumped into the body, no, not one, but a group of fleas.

It's not scary to have fleas on their bodies, but it's scary that these fleas suck blood and keep mischievous, so that they don't get a minute or a second of rest. I don't know if the Chiyou army on the mountain is tired, anyway, the Japanese army under the mountain, whether it is officers or soldiers, is very tired from them!
