Chapter 850: A Small Fish Swam In!

It was September 23rd, and the General Command of the Chinese Front thought that it could basically end the operation on Kyushu Island with a beautiful attack!

The entire strength of two divisions and two brigades was thrown into the assault.

At the same time, the Japanese "Red Army" also began to be active more frequently.

They used guerrilla warfare to inflict the most terrible attacks on the Japanese government troops who were caught in a bitter battle on the frontal battlefield.

Although such an attack did not achieve the result of annihilating many people, it did prevent the Japanese army from concentrating on the frontal challenge

The Japanese army on the island of Kyushu was already very passive and difficult.

Although Binjiang still wants to continue to persevere, it is clear that the current situation has made it powerless. All he could do was to delay the progress of the squadron as much as possible, and try to keep himself and his army alive as much as possible.

Toshi Sato, who was supervising the battle on the front line, also felt great pressure

Under the cover of aircraft, artillery and tanks, a large number of squadrons frequently launched attacks on Japanese positions again and again, and each impact always caused the Japanese to suffer very huge losses.

11th Company, September 23, 1932, 15:30 p.m.

The assault of the whole company was very rapid, and half an hour earlier they had received a new order from the battalion headquarters to continue to advance along the line of Kurume, and that they must reach Okafen by 6 p.m. and build a defensive line on the spot at Okafen.

But what made Ji Dechun embarrassed was that they found that there were at least two or more squadrons of Japanese troops gathered in Gangfen, and they also had a cannon. In the case of a hard attack, it is obviously not realistic to rely on a forcibly hijacked tank and a mortar with only two shells left.

"I'm not going." Commander No. 216 Huang Qiyun's answer was very clear: "That cannon can blow up my tank like a turtle with one shot, and my shell is only the last one!" ”

It's a bit tricky.

The assault speed of the 11th Company was too fast, and it was already difficult to send them the supplies in time. What made the 11th Company even more troublesome was that there was no supply vehicle of the squadron nearby.

He asked the battalion headquarters for supplies, but the battalion commander said that new supplies would not be delivered until at least tomorrow morning. But how can the battle continue without shells now?

"Go to Yegang." Ji Dechun suddenly gave such an order.

"Nooka? Our destination is Gangfen" Lian Deputy Wang Zhongmin hesitated: "In case the battalion headquarters tracks it down"

"Okafen has two squadrons of Japanese troops and a cannon!" Ji Dechun looked very annoyed: "We are running out of ammunition, and those people in the battalion headquarters who have water in their heads sending us to attack Gangfen are simply sending us to death, Yegang, it sounds like the name is almost the same"

Reporter Liu Qinglin hurriedly recorded it: "The company commander once again disobeyed the orders of his superiors, if he hadn't been winning, he would have been able to go to the military court ten times."

"You're all coming and seeing." Ji Dechun called several platoon commanders to his side: "We occupied Yegang, where it is said that there is a small arsenal of the Japanese, which is enough for us to completely replenish at one time. Moreover, Nooka controls the flanks of Okafen, and the Japanese become chickens in a cage that can't fly away if they want to."

A few platoon commanders listened indifferently, anyway, the company commander let him fight himself as much as he wanted, and if something happened, naturally the company commander would be there to stand up

The 11th Company disobeyed the orders of the battalion headquarters, which became a very special unit in the Kyushu Island landing.

Since they landed on Kyushu Island, they have always won victories, but their company commander has his own opinions, and twice disobeyed orders from the battalion headquarters. …,

Or will they be court-martialed when the fighting is over? Ji Dechun can't manage so much anymore

Yegang, 17 o'clock in the afternoon!

A few Japanese soldiers were walking there, and the battle was still very far away from them, and the enemy would not appear before them until Okafen was lost.

These Japanese did not want to rush into battle, although sooner or later they would have to face the terrible artillery fire of the Chinese.

There was a faint roar of a motor in the distance, and the Japanese didn't particularly care, maybe it was the troops from the front who came back to resupply, right?

A Japanese soldier picked up a telescope and looked ahead

A tank? Kindness? What are the tanks doing here? They should now be fighting on the front line with the Chinese army, not running here. I don't have any shells to replenish them except fuel.

It doesn't seem to be particularly right, it doesn't look like a Japanese tank

Jun Cao put down the binoculars, rubbed his eyes, and then put the binoculars back up.

He can be sure that this is not the empire's chariot, it is a group of soldiers wearing steel helmets that began to appear behind the tank, and the style of this steel helmet is not the emperor's ** team, that is

"Enemy!" Jun Cao suddenly cried out heartbreakingly: "The enemy is attacking!" ”

Yegang, at 17 o'clock in the afternoon, the 9th Company of the 18th Brigade of the 11th Division of the Chinese National Defense Forces began to attack Yegang!

The Japanese army in Yegang was completely defenseless, and the sudden appearance of the Chinese made them a mess. The Japanese soldiers ran out of the barracks in a panic, picked up their weapons in a panic, and threw themselves into the battle in a panic.

The elite troops have all been placed on the front line to fight the Chinese, and most of the troops here have never fought, and more than half of the soldiers have only been conscripted after the Chinese began to land on Kyushu Island.

What can be expected of such troops?

The 11th Company did not take much effort to solve the garrison here and occupy the entire field.

From the landing of the squadron to the present, the confusion of the command of the Japanese army can be imagined. There was a small arsenal of the Japanese army in Yegang, and for such an important place, the Japanese commander actually sent such a unit with no combat experience to defend it.

The supreme commander of the Japanese army, Kawashima Takashaosa, who was here, breathed a long sigh of relief. Although he became a prisoner of the Chinese, he finally did not have to face the terrible war.

When the war is over, he will be released and will continue his previous job.

Before the outbreak of the war, Kawashima Takashi was a teacher in Kumamoto, and his responsibility was to nurture students, not to direct a group of soldiers to fight the enemy on the battlefield.

"Kawashima Takashosa."

"Captain Ji Dechun!"

After the supreme commanders of the Chinese and Japanese ** teams here informed each other of their names and ranks, Ji Dechun said: "Kawashima Gao Shaozuo, I hope that your subordinates can abide by the discipline of prisoners of war and avoid unnecessary troubles. My superiors have given the order that we have the right to take drastic measures against all potential dangers. ”

"I understand." Kawashima Takaka was taken aback: "We don't really want to go to war, so we will cooperate." ”

"Take me on a tour of the arsenal."

"Understood."

The weapons and ammunition in this small arsenal are still relatively abundant. But the only thing that disappointed Huang Qiyun was that he didn't get the shells that his tank desperately needed.

Kawashima Takasa did appear very cooperative, and he carefully briefed the Chinese on the situation in Yegang, as well as the equipment of the nearby Japanese army and the upcoming attack that followed.

The Japanese estimated that there would be more than one brigade or more of the forces that could be put into contention for Nooka, and the commander would be Ushihito Osa, who was preparing to reinforce the front line through Nooka. …,

Ji Dechun suddenly found that his luck was not as good as he imagined.

I thought that after capturing Yegang, the battle would become very easy, but what I didn't expect was that there was a Japanese brigade reinforcing the front line passing through here.

"Ushio Osa's troops, according to the previous agreement, will pass through here around 8 o'clock tonight."

Kawashima Taka's words asked Ji Dechun to take out his watch and look at it, it was 18 o'clock, which means that two hours later, a large group of Japanese troops would appear in Yegang.

"All of them, build a position, get ready for battle!"

"Ready to fight, ready to fight! Set up the guys! ”

Ji Dechun finally thought of the battalion headquarters: "Send a telegram to the battalion headquarters, our army has occupied Yegang"

Not surprisingly, the battalion commander's roar came again: "What I want you to occupy is Gangfen, not a wild hill"

Former enemy command on the island of Kyushu, China.

"What? One of our companies has taken control of the field? Wang Mingzhang thought that he had heard it wrong.

"Yes, it's the 11th Company." Bai Chongxi immediately replied: "Originally, their task was to march into Gangfen, but after finding that the Japanese army's firepower was relatively strong there, they transferred to Yegang and successfully occupied it. ”

Wang Mingzhang immediately came to the map and looked at it for a while: "Immediately order all the 18th Brigade to advance to Yegang, all!" Order the 9th Regiment of Combat Vehicles to assist in the battle and advance to Yegang at full speed! Tell the 11th Company to give them an order in the name of the General Headquarters, and if you don't want to go to a military court for disobeying military orders, you will give me a dead end in the field! ”

"Yes!"

Wang Mingzhang didn't expect that a small fish would swim into Yegang, and he didn't expect that Yegang would really let this small fish be controlled.

As long as Nooka can be firmly grasped, the enemy on the Kurume line will lose contact with Kumamoto, and the battle on Kyushu Island will soon end early.

The main force of the Japanese army will be greatly defeated in Kurume much earlier than the scheduled time!

The situation on the battlefield is always changing rapidly, but Wang Mingzhang is keenly in the midst of emergencies and captures the hope of resolving the battle on Kyushu Island in advance!
