576: Yoshimasa Oshima: I've read, don't try to lie to me
'Huh? ’
As the first Japanese soldier to board the position of the 371st Division, Saburo Quanyu suddenly had the feeling of beeping a dog. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Peat, what about hand-to-hand combat? What about the bayonet? What about beating the Chinese? What about people? What about people? Nima's important thing is said three times, what about people?
Faced with an empty position, many Japanese soldiers had a feeling of decadence, and they took up arms and went to the battlefield without even getting a good night's sleep, not even eating a full meal, and taking up arms and going to the battlefield before the fatigue of the journey had completely faded.
But in exchange for such a result.
In the face of the empty position of the 371st Division, many Japanese soldiers gradually became a little afraid in their hearts, because they had received a reminder from the 36th Division that the situation encountered by the 36th Division at that time was not much different from the situation they were encountering now, and as a result, the unsuspecting 36th Division was suddenly attacked by a large number of mines after jumping into the trenches, resulting in heavy losses, and the 36th Division was forced to withdraw from the position it had regained.
"Yaga, don't move, stop everything." Lieutenant Komura looked at the Saburo Quanyou, who had already jumped into the trench, standing there with a bewildered expression, and he was frightened into a cold sweat, and hurriedly ordered everyone.
Quanyou Saburo looked at his squadron leader a little confused, and he didn't understand what he meant.
"Quan Youjun, hand me the weapon." Lieutenant Komura calmly pushed away a few Japanese soldiers who were crowded at the front, first said to Saburo Quantomo, then turned around and said to the other soldiers behind him: "All of them retreat ten meters, then lie down on the ground, and be careful of mines." ”
As soon as he heard the word mine, Quanyou Saburo instantly collapsed, he meowed, how could he forget about this matter? Lao Tzu shouldn't have stepped on a landmine, right? Do you want to be so unlucky?
The other soldiers hurriedly stepped back, their faces full of fear, and Lieutenant Komura stabbed the ground little by little with his bayonet, and only after making sure that there were no mines underneath him, did he move forward step by step.
Standing on the top of the trench, Lieutenant Komura stabbed Saburo with his rifle and bayonet a few times near Saburo's feet, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately Saburo didn't step on the mine. But this does not mean that there are no mines on this line of defense, the ancients said that there must be demons when things go wrong, eh, it seems that the ancients in China said, forget it, they are all ancients anyway, whether they are China or Japan.
"Don't move in a large area, come up where I just stabbed." Lieutenant Komura said softly to Saburo Juntomo.
With the help of Lieutenant Komura, Saburo finally left the minefield that did not exist after two minutes of panic.
Do you continue to attack or stop attacking? This was indeed a problem, and it was a problem that deeply troubled all the Japanese troops on the front line.
Because of the heavy fog, the Japanese army at this time also returned to the era when communication basically relied on roaring, and after confirming that there was no enemy on the defensive line, the 3rd Division immediately sent a signal corps to the rear to report the situation to the headquarters.
What the? You let the division headquarters charge with you? Are you kidding?
Except for the headquarters of the 39th and 17th Divisions, which followed the troops, the headquarters of the 3rd and 27th Divisions were in the rear and were together with the headquarters. The battlefield was too narrow, the strength of the four divisions and regiments could not be spread at all, and the division and regiment headquarters could not follow the troops, so they could only squeeze the division headquarters and the headquarters together to facilitate unified command and coordination.
The 39th and 17th Divisions were separated from the 3rd and 27th Divisions because they had to go around the rear, and they were also at a distance from the headquarters when they were circling the rear, so they would move with the troops in order to facilitate command and operation.
However, the brigade headquarters is behind the troops, but the brigade headquarters of the 3rd Division is behind the 27th Division, and it is not easy to train a high-ranking officer.
"Nani? Retreated? Yoshimasa Oshima glared fiercely, unable to believe that this was true.
The Chinese will retreat on their own initiative? Could it be some kind of conspiracy?
"Hey, the enemy has retreated, there are still very clear traces on the defensive line, and the front-line troops faintly heard the enemy's bugle when attacking, they should have retreated at that time, and the troops are currently checking whether there is a minefield, and when the signal corps came to report, the minefield was not found for the time being." The staff officer reported truthfully.
"The opponent is as cunning as a fox." Listening to the staff officer's report, instead of feeling the slightest excitement, Yoshimasa Oshima had a faint solemn expression on his face.
The retreat of the Chinese, theoretically this should be good news, but on the surface it may not be true, as Oshima Yoshimasa, who has experience with the Chinese, he knows the cunning of the Chinese, and after returning from Korea, Oshima Yoshimasa is also constantly learning, understanding Chinese culture, especially Sun Tzu's Art of War and the Three Kingdoms, after understanding, Oshima Yoshimasa is even more lamented by the treasures left by the ancient Chinese.
If the Qing Dynasty had been able to work hard, Oshima Yoshimasa would not even have dared to imagine what the outcome of the Sino-Japanese War would be. It was also after learning about China that Yoshimasa Oshima really felt the horror of the Chinese.
In terms of heritage, Japan is far from being able to compare with the Chinese. And the facts have also proved this, the awakened Chinese only took less than ten years to completely crush Japan, which is faster than Japan catching up with the Qing Dynasty, and the effect is even more obvious.
The Chinese have an overall advantage, so why retreat?
The time, the place, the people.
Yoshimasa Oshima thought of the three elements of war in the Three Kingdoms, and on the battlefield, whoever occupies these three points will inevitably win.
The fog in front of you is obviously not good for the Chinese, so the sky and they don't have it. Although the trenches have been dug up, there is no barbed wire fence that the Chinese are accustomed to, and the trenches are urgently prepared, and the effect may not be much better, and they do not have much advantage in this area.
Needless to say, this is Japan, and apart from the Japanese army, no foreign army can occupy people and this here.
From this point of view, the retreat of the Chinese is an inevitable result, otherwise only defeat awaits them. But how did the Chinese know that they were going to attack today? Although the order was given last night, the specific operational arrangements were not issued, and the Chinese did not begin to retreat until after the attack, not last night.
That is to say, there is a high probability that the news of their attack has been leaked out in advance. Damn the inner ghost, Oshima Yoshimasa hates it very much, but at this time, there is no way to catch that inner ghost, and the most important thing in front of him is to solve the problems encountered.
With the personality of the Chinese, the retreat is basically abandonable, or is it a strategic retreat? And the reason is because of this sudden fog? As long as the fog recedes, the Chinese will fight back?
Moreover, with the equipment level of the Chinese, both defense and offense are not a problem for them, heavy artillery can easily tear a huge hole in the Japanese defense line, and their troops can easily break through the Japanese defense line, and can do it without paying much casualties.
Since there is no difference between offense and defense, then why fight with the Japanese with bayonets? Moreover, the proportion of casualties in fighting bayonets is greater than that of normal battles, and the Chinese will obviously not accept this kind of battle.
Retreat first, after the fog recedes, the counteroffensive begins, and the Japanese army, which was caught off guard, was simply unable to organize an effective defense at this time, in the words of the Three Kingdoms, this seems to be called back to the carbine, if the Japanese army does not pay attention, it is very likely to suffer a big loss.
Well, it must be like this, cunning Chinese.
You want to kill me with a horse gun, I just don't let you get your wish, you want to avoid the disadvantages and give full play to your advantages, I just don't let you get your wish.
"Order the troops, quickly follow, bite the Chinese to death, absolutely not let them distance, at the same time, the troops are ready for battle, the Chinese are likely to suddenly turn around and launch a counteroffensive after the fog recedes." Tell the troops in front that their task is to rush forward quickly when the fog recedes, to make a mess with the Chinese, to render the enemy's heavy artillery useless, and to force them to engage in hand-to-hand combat with us, which is the only way to ensure that we can win. Yoshimasa Oshima commanded to the staff officer.
If it is an officer who does not understand the Chinese, he will definitely be puzzled at this time, or he will breathe a sigh of relief because of the retreat of the Chinese, and then let the troops build a defensive line, expand the defensive circle, squeeze the space of the Chinese little by little, and recover the advantage of the Japanese army little by little.
But in Oshima's view, this is all nonsense, the Chinese are shrewd, if you really do it, then you will be fooled.
Hmph, Chinese, I'm afraid you didn't think of it, I, Oshima Yoshimasa, is also a Chinese expert, at least in the knowledge of Sun Tzu's Art of War and the Three Kingdoms is no worse than anyone else, just listening to the staff report, Oshima Yoshimasa quickly gave a judgment and came up with countermeasures, which is still rarely possible by high-ranking Japanese officers.
After making this decision, Oshima Yoshimasa even faintly looked forward to the moment when the fog receded, he wanted to take a look, when the fog receded, when the Chinese planned to counterattack, but suddenly saw that the Japanese army had rushed to their faces, it must be wonderful.
