Chapter 512: It's Too Late
Scattered and broke through, and most of the Japanese troops were able to leave here alive. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But the Japanese forgot that this was not only not their territory, but also the Liaodong Army.
As soon as they dispersed, they immediately became the prey that the Liaodong Army could hunt at any time.
You must know that Wang Hong not only has 100 special combat personnel under his command, but also hundreds of bandits who have been fighting in the forest for several years. It was almost impossible for the scattered Japanese troops to evade their roundup.
Therefore, the two infantry brigades of the Japanese army entered the mountain, and in the end, there were not even ten people who escaped. And he lurked in the forest for nearly five days, and only after the battle was completely over, did he escape from the forest like a wild man.
In the temporary garrison of the Fengcheng Garrison Brigade, the division commander who had been reinforced by Dashanyan was furious in his office.
The encirclement and suppression armies have left Fengcheng for five days, and in the eyes of the division commander, these times are enough for his subordinates to eliminate many Liaodong troops hiding in the mountains.
However, in the past few days, the division commander not only did not receive a good report from one unit, but also received a report that the two encirclement and suppression units had almost completely annihilated.
Just an hour ago, several Japanese soldiers who had escaped from Wang Hong's hands had just returned to Fengcheng.
After confirming the identities of these Japanese soldiers, the division commander had to face the annihilation of his two infantry brigades.
"Yaga, what the hell is going on? In the end, the Liaodong Army is too powerful, and our encirclement and suppression troops are not opponents! Or because our encirclement and suppression troops were too light, and the enemy was exploited by the Liaodong Army! ”
The chief of staff of the division said with a solemn face: "It must be that the combat effectiveness of the Liaodong Army is far beyond our imagination!" ”
"If it is a light enemy, it is impossible for all three troops to underestimate the enemy. More importantly, the total strength of the two encirclement and suppression units was two infantry brigades. Even if they were to take advantage of the Liaodong Army, it would be impossible for them to be wiped out in such a short period of time. ”
"Also, according to the reports of the soldiers who have just escaped: the Liaodong Army they encircled and suppressed was not only equipped with a large number of light and heavy machine guns, but also equipped with field artillery that only our divisional artillery wings are equipped with. In terms of firepower, they even surpassed our encirclement troops. ”
The division commander was suddenly stunned, and asked with an expression of disbelief: "Baga, how is it possible, the firepower is even stronger than ours, is this still the Chinese army that we have always looked down on?" ”
The chief of staff replied in a heavy tone: "The Liaodong Army is indeed different from other Chinese armies!" ”
"As soon as we came here, the commander-in-chief told us that he wanted us to pay attention to the Liaodong Army. It's just that we didn't take it to heart at the time! ”
"And here too, after entering Fengcheng, the commander of the Fengcheng Garrison Brigade came to tell us many times that we should not underestimate the enemy, and the Liaodong Army captured a large number of weapons and ammunition from the empire, and the firepower was very strong. We didn't take it to heart at first! ”
"I went to the Fengcheng headquarters just now to ask, in the past few months, among all the weapons and ammunition intercepted by the Liaodong Army, there are a total of thirty field artillery pieces and more than five thousand heavy artillery shells!"
"If nothing else, these weapons must have been equipped by the Liaodong Army itself!"
The division commander frowned and scolded loudly: "Baga, our division is in trouble this time!" ”
"What do you mean, division commander?" The chief of staff hurriedly asked.
The division commander thought about it and replied: "You just said that the Liaodong Army has intercepted a total of 30 of our field artillery, but up to now, the Liaodong Army has only used 10 of them, and the 20 field guns saved are still useless." And our field artillery wing stayed in Fengcheng and did not attack with the team. ”
"As long as the Liaodong Army uses these field artillery, we will definitely be defeated if we have no conditions to counterattack, and it will be a fiasco."
The chief of staff was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly reacted and said: "We still have two encirclement and suppression troops that will return with a crushing defeat!" ”
"If these two encirclement and suppression forces are the size of two brigades, plus the losses that have been lost now, our division will not lose more than half!"
"There will be more, not less!" With his current understanding and attention to the Liaodong Army, the division commander replied with a gloomy face.
The chief of staff was also anxious at this time, and asked eagerly at the division commander: "Is there no solution!" ”
After thinking about it, the division commander replied: "I hope there is still time in time!" ”
Under the anxious gaze of the chief of staff, he decisively ordered: "Send out all the heralds of the division and regimental headquarters!" Find our encirclement and suppression troops, and if you are not sure of victory, the troops will retreat immediately! ”
In less than two days, the heralds sent by the division commander returned to Fengcheng one after another.
Of the 10 encirclement and suppression troops sent by the entire division, except for two that remained vigilant from the beginning, they took the initiative to retreat as soon as they lost 20% of their troops, and finally succeeded in withdrawing to Fengcheng.
The other encirclement and suppression troops were either completely annihilated or suffered heavy losses.
At the time of the dispatch, the 16 infantry brigades bathed more than 2,000 Japanese troops, and the last to come back was only 3,000 people, just one infantry wing.
After the news reached Dashanyan's ears, Dashanyan had no other way than to scold the division commander.
"Commander-in-chief, the reinforcements have suffered heavy losses, and it is no longer possible to encircle and suppress the Liaodong Army in Fengcheng. Should we send new troops to continue to reinforce Fengcheng and continue to encircle and suppress! ”
After thinking about it, Dashan Yan shook his head and said, "There is no chance anymore?" “
"The encirclement and suppression of the reinforcements failed, on the one hand, because our troops were too light on the enemy, but the most important thing was that the Liaodong Army was too cunning, and its combat effectiveness far exceeded our estimates!"
"The combat effectiveness of the reinforcements is still very strong, and it is possible to inflict losses on them by underestimating the enemy, but they are not fools, and neither are those captains and wing commanders. Because it is enough to suffer a loss once to light the enemy, and will never suffer a second loss. ”
"Therefore, the main reason why the Liaodong Army can repel our heavy encirclement and suppression is that their strength is too strong, far beyond our estimates!"
"To deal with such a strong enemy, one division is obviously not enough. And our headquarters only has a division and regiment in reserve, and we simply can't send more troops to encircle and suppress them! ”
"We've only sent this one division over, I'm sure that we will be the ones who will lose in the end!"
Seeing the deep helpless expression on Da Shanyan's face, the chief of staff continued to ask: "Then we will watch them continue to make trouble in Fengcheng and threaten our logistics and supplies." ”
After thinking about it, Da Shanyan decided: "The reinforcements will not be withdrawn, stay in Fengcheng, assist the Fengcheng garrison brigade, and ensure the safety of our logistics supply line!" ”
"Before the main force of the Liaodong Army is resolved, no unit can take the initiative to attack! As long as they can ensure the logistical supply of the troops in battle, they will have a share of the credit for destroying the Liaodong Army! ”
"As long as the main force of the Liaodong Army is solved, I can send heavy troops to encircle and suppress them and eliminate them!" (To be continued.) )
