Chapter Twenty-Six: Movement Warfare
The bloody battle at the pass continued, and after Yamada Tsuneta saw the effect of his indiscriminate artillery bombardment tactics, he frantically ordered the forward troops to continue to charge at any cost. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Because of the problem of soldiers, Ye Yi often had to give up the first and second positions in the face of such crazy artillery fire, and gathered his troops on the third and fourth positions to defend to the death.
Tsuneta Yamada saw that the tactical purpose of the troops to tear the gap in the pass position had been achieved, and the first and second brigades responsible for the charge were both killed and wounded.
At this time, he ordered a postponement of the artillery bombardment, allowing the 1st and 2nd Brigades to rebuild the occupied positions as bridgehead bases for subsequent attacks, and his headquarters began to move forward.
"Nakasa, the casualties of our department are so large, it is inevitable that Major General Obaof will be held accountable after he arrives." On the way to the transfer, Wing Staff Officer Ikeda said.
"Don't disturb Ikeda-kun, although our troops have broken many soldiers, they have also torn open a gap in the opponent's position and laid the foundation for the follow-up battle, even if the major general is dissatisfied, he can't do anything to me."
Yamada, who had survived the post-war self-determination crisis, was in a good mood, and said with a smile when he heard the words.
Ikeda was stunned when he heard this, as a staff officer of the wing, he was naturally not stupid, and when he saw the unobstructed words that the other party would reveal with his heart, he couldn't help but slander Yamada Tsuneta as a scum who dragged down the troops for his own selfish desires.

"Commander, what should we do next?"
The Japanese army's suspended artillery bombardment gave the new second regiment precious respite, and Ye Yi often took advantage of this time to immediately get together to discuss the follow-up combat mission.
"What else can I do, keep going." Faced with the question of the first battalion commander, Ye Yi often took a puff of cigarette and said.
"But now that the casualties of the troops have been more than half, if we continue to defend like this, our troops will not even think about planting in less than three hours." The fourth battalion commander said and threw the half-smoked cigarette to the ground with an excited expression.
"What are you making a fuss about, only a third of the troops of the first and second children are still in trouble, what the hell are you making trouble, where do you want to retreat behind us!"
Ye Yi often threw away his cigarette roll when he heard this, and scolded the fourth battalion commander with his head and face.
"But... Huh..!"
It's not that the fourth battalion commander doesn't know that this battle can only be held, it's just that as a commander, he can't bear to watch the troops consume, and now he is choked by Ye Yichang, sighs heavily, puts his hands in his cuffs, turns his face away, and no longer speaks.
Seeing that the scene was a little ugly, the first and second battalion commanders hurriedly came out to play a round and persuaded one after another.
"Regiment Commander, the fourth brother is also saying this for the troops, don't be angry."
"That's it, the fourth child is young and can't hold his breath, you are an old comrade for more than ten years, what do you know like him!"
The old brothers persuaded each other, and the words of the fourth battalion commander were indeed said from the perspective of the troops, and the anger in Ye Yichang's heart quickly disappeared, and he took out a cigarette in his pocket and lit it and said, "The devils suspended the shelling after we gave up the first and second positions, I estimate that this is because their tactical purpose has been achieved, and the indiscriminate shelling like the previous one will not appear again for the time being." ”
"Really, Captain!" As soon as Ye Yichang's voice came out, several battalion commanders immediately asked, especially the eyes of the first and second battalion commanders who had suffered heavy losses in the artillery fire were full of flames of revenge.
"It should be, but let's try it first, just to be on the safe side"
Ye Yi saw their appearances often, and knew that several people were holding back their strength to avenge the soldiers who died in the artillery fire, and he, as the supreme commander of this army, was naturally even more interested in revenge.
But at the moment, as a commander, he couldn't be blinded by the anger of revenge, so he pressed down the anger in his heart and analyzed rationally.
"How do you try?" The commander of the first battalion couldn't wait to ask.
Ye Yi often took a hard puff of his cigarette when he heard this, and said.
"Let's do this next, all the troops of your three battalions will go to the third position, don't save ammunition after the battle, and strive to quickly destroy the opponent's living forces with the greatest firepower.
Then counter-charge the devils, kill a circle in the second position and then retreat, if the devil's cannon does not go off, or if it is not like before, regardless of whether the troops are mixed together or not, it will open fire, then it means that as long as the lower position is not lost, the devil will no longer use indiscriminate shelling. ”
"Commander, you mean, retreat as advance?" The second battalion commander is a person who likes to read military books for nothing, and his brain is relatively fast, so he said immediately.
"The head of the regiment can't do this, isn't it to tell the devil that you are the meat of our mouths, let's eat it whenever we want, this devil is not in a hurry with you, won't this cannon still go off when the time comes." Although the commander of the first battalion had read less books but had more experience in fighting, he said another possibility at the moment.
"That's right, Commander, I think what the old one said is right." The fourth battalion commander also felt that what the other party said was reasonable, and hurriedly agreed.
One test, two opinions, Ye Yi often waited for the three of them to express their opinions, smiled slightly, and said, "What are the three of you talking nonsense, the second one, you see which soldier writes that retreats for advancement is used in this way, and the first and fourth ones are not lit up, why are you in a hurry." ”
"Commander, you made your intentions clear."
"That's it, that's it, how can anyone guess only the first half and the back."
"That's right, the head of the regiment is so bone-eyed, what kind of tricks do you have to make it fast, what kind of tricks do you sell."
The three battalion commanders replied with the same caliber after being named.
"Hey, before I finished speaking, let the second child interrupt and then you each start to express your opinions, this can rely on me!" Ye Yi took a puff of cigarette, smiled, and continued
"This experiment is just to buy time for the deployment later, we can't afford it with the devils, but we still have a defensive depth behind us that can rebuild the position.
After you go back, I will immediately take the three battalions back to continue to build defensive positions and minefields, the devil's artillery has a range, as long as we leave the range of the artillery, the artillery position of the little devil must move, and then we will find a way to counterattack and fight back.
As soon as we come back to shoot Zhu Yuan, we have to adjust it again, so that the cannon of his devil who retreats and advances will not be able to sound, understand? ”
After hearing this, several battalion commanders suddenly realized, and the second battalion commander opened his mouth and said, "Damn, isn't this what the commander often talks about sports warfare, why didn't I think of it." ”
"You've thought about it, you've thought about becoming the head of the regiment early." The commander of the first battalion patted the other party on the shoulder and hit the other party mercilessly.
"That's it, our regiment commander is the famous Confucian general of Brigade Commander Chen, he is famous for his many ideas for fighting, where are you going, watch more and learn more." The commander of the fourth battalion also offered a blow.
"Get out, you two are not there for a long time, don't you think of it like Lao Tzu." Seeing this, the commander of the second battalion immediately made a counterattack.
"We didn't expect it, but we won't sigh after the regiment commander's explanation, isn't this just sports warfare, nonsense, right, fourth." The first battalion commander learned the tone of the other party just now and winked at the fourth battalion commander.
"That's it, you're so right!" The latter immediately gave a thumbs up when he heard this.
"You... You guys.... The second battalion commander still wanted to refute, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say, so he had to give up in the end.
"Come on, don't be embarrassed here, hurry up and prepare to go." Ye Yi often interrupted the three laughing people, threw away the cigarette in his hand, got up and said.
"Yes, Captain!"
The three of them received the order and immediately got up to prepare.
