549: Siege: Kaohsiung

Surprise? Astound?

No, at this moment, in Fang Tong's heart, there are only two words, confused. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yes, it's just confused, Fang Tong didn't even dare to believe Liu Zhilang's words until now, but Liu Zhilang was so confident when he said this, Fang Tong is not the kind of young man who has not received education and is not sensible, he has received a higher education, and even went to Japan to study, he has seen Japan's strength with his own eyes, and he has also seen Japan's malaise.

Now Japan, is completely an extreme existence, on land, their strength looks strong, but in fact it is so vulnerable, several Sino-Japanese wars have proved everything, and the current war, Fang Tong as a participant, he also personally felt the difference of this war.

It is true that the Japanese Army is not as powerful as it seems, but the Japanese Navy is an extremely powerful existence, which Fang Tong cannot deny, or even refute. But the Japanese Navy will be defeated? And lose more than half? Why does this news sound like a bit of a public opinion war?

But higher education made him not rush to deny it, so just imagine, if the Japanese Combined Navy is still there, then the Chinese Army will dare to easily cross the ocean and land in Taiwan to fight the Japanese army? Even if their army's combat effectiveness is very strong, once the Japanese Combined Fleet cuts off the retreat route and cut off the supply, these landed troops can only be reduced to the point of being killed cleanly, and may even go into the mountains and forests like the anti-Japanese forces, and live a day without a day.

Because of Japan's blockade, almost the entire island of Taiwan does not have a special understanding of the situation on the mainland in recent years, and even the defeat of the Japanese Army twice was because Fang Tong was studying in Japan at the time, and his classmates inadvertently mentioned this matter, and the news of the defeat of the Japanese Army was also suppressed in Japan, and he did not dare to let everyone know about it.

But then again, although the Japanese government covered up this news, with the landing of the Chinese army, then the Japanese government will no longer be able to continue to cover up this news, because where are the troops that were previously annihilated? The Japanese government knew their fate, but the people didn't know it, and they thought that the troops were stationed in Korea.

Along with Fang Tong's shock, the shouts of the big bull also began to resound throughout the battlefield, and the Japanese on the city wall could more or less understand some Chinese, but they could only listen to fragments.

In the end, it was under the translation of the Kaohsiung people on the city wall that they understood the meaning of the shouting under the city wall. As for the shouting of the big bull, the Japanese troops on the city wall only felt that it was a big joke, and the Chinese army landed on the Japanese mainland, just listening to this sentence made people can't help but want to hehe.

But there is no doubt that Da Niu's shouting did have a deterrent effect on the Japanese army.

Or is it that sentence, the Japanese army is not an ordinary civilian, they are soldiers who have received regular military training, and in the military training of the Japanese army, their imaginary enemy is the Chinese Empire, and the purpose of training is to defeat the Chinese Empire's army, so who knows the Chinese army best? The answer is the Japanese army.

This answer may sound a little absurd, since the Japanese army knows their opponent best, so why didn't the Japanese army make a change? Why has their armament changed almost nothing over the course of several years? Compared with a few years ago, the Chinese army has less Makqin heavy machine guns in its equipment, but there are more Type 08 general-purpose machine guns, more mortars, Type 03 automatic rifles, and hand grenades.

On the other hand, what equipment has the Japanese army added in recent years? One wing was only armed with eight Maxim heavy machine guns and eight mortars. Hand grenades are also equipped with some, but the number is not much, and the weapon in the hand is still only the Type 30 rifle, yes, although they have developed the Type 38 rifle as early as five years ago and have also equipped it with the troops, but the number of Type 38 rifles is not much at present.

Although the difference between the Type 30 rifle and the Type 38 rifle is not much, it is nothing more than an extra dust cap and some minor changes in performance. But just this dust cover forced the Japanese army top brass to continue to choose to use the 30 rifle.

Because hundreds of thousands of dust caps are added together, the amount of steel consumed is almost enough to make thousands of guns, they have to break their fingers to get by, and a lot of resources are divided to the navy, and the Japanese army is actually quite helpless.

If the plan they formulated and if they can implement this plan, then by now, although the Japanese army may still be inferior to the Chinese Army in terms of combat effectiveness, the gap between the two will definitely not be so big, at least the Japanese army can guarantee that the strength of a wing can also be equal to an infantry regiment of the Chinese Army. (About 4,000 people vs about 3,000 people)

According to the plan of the Japanese army leadership, a brigade of Japanese troops was equipped with a fire group, which was equipped with four Maxim heavy machine guns, four mortars, and the infantry was replaced with Type 38 rifles and infantry grenades. A battalion of the Japanese army is about 1,000 people, and its strength is about one and a half battalions of the Chinese Army, while the firepower of a battalion of the Chinese Army is a platoon, a machine gun and a mortar, the company has a fire support group, a machine gun and a mortar, four platoons are a company, four companies are a battalion, a company is equipped with a total of five machine guns and five mortars, a battalion is 20 machine guns and 20 mortars, and the battalion headquarters is equipped with a fire support group, two machine guns and two mortars, a total of 22 fire groups.

Compared to the Japanese plan, they still have an overwhelming advantage in statistics, but the Japanese feel that they can practice their marksmanship hard, and they can arm themselves with the enemy's equipment after they arrive on the battlefield, so they are still very confident of victory.

However, the navy is a bottomless pit, always trying to swallow all its resources in one go, so that so far, the Japanese army can only achieve one wing with eight firepower groups, which is equivalent to halving the original plan. In addition, the Marine Corps does not play cards according to the routine at all, and the ordinary Chinese army is so equipped, who knew that when they arrived, it would become two squads equipped with a fireteam? This is equivalent to a direct doubling of the firepower of a battalion, once again widening the gap between the two sides.

In fact, when they fled, many Japanese soldiers had already realized that they were far from being the opponents of the Chinese Army, and when Da Niu shouted that sentence, many people believed his shout, although there was still a trace of doubt in their hearts, for example, how could the Japanese Navy be defeated? How could the Navy possibly let them land on the mainland? Even these enemy troops who have landed in Taiwan may not return, so what can they threaten them with?

'Bang ......'

'Smack......'

A Kaohsiung civilians were directly pushed down the city wall by the Japanese army at the head of the city, they did not shoot, but in this way to provoke the second battalion of the Marine Corps under the head of the city, the Kaohsiung city wall is not high, only about three meters high, this height will not fall to death if pushed down, unless it is head-down, but the fracture or something is certain, if the treatment is not timely, death is inevitable.

And at the moment when the civilian was pushed off the wall, the Japanese soldier who thought he had provoked the Marines did not realize that he was actually unlucky, and the Marine snipers under the city happened to aim their guns there, and then he made such a move.

And at the moment when the stool appeared, the sniper pulled the trigger without hesitation, and the bullet brutally drilled into the head of the Japanese soldier, and lifted the entire back of the skull, and a red and white brain pulp and blood were instantly sprinkled all over the entire city wall, and the Japanese soldier who died couldn't believe that the retribution would come so quickly.

And this matter is indeed due to luck, if the Japanese soldier can do it again a second or two later, then the sniper's muzzle has already been transferred to another place, and there is no chance to attack him at all.

The sound of gunfire caused panic among the Japanese soldiers on the city wall, and also caused panic among the people of Kaohsiung on the city wall.

Liu Zhilang under the city wall didn't expect things to develop to this point, frankly speaking, this kind of battle is not easy to fight, if there is a choice, no one wants to fight this kind of battle.

For them, it seems that there are only two choices, either to directly order an attack regardless of the safety of civilians, or to retreat, or to be left to the disposal of the Japanese army. But no matter which choice you choose, it is not easy to make this decision.

The Japanese troops on the city wall were almost furious, and in desperation, Liu Zhilang had no choice but to order the snipers to look for opportunities to kill the Japanese soldiers, while the machine gunners and mortar gunners aimed at the city gate to attack and bomb, blast the city gate as much as possible, and then rush in to engage the Japanese in a white-knuckle battle.

This is not the best outcome, but it is the only decision that will reduce civilian casualties. Liu Zhilang is not a saint, if according to military regulations, he can order an attack at this time, regardless of the death and injury of civilians. However, Kaohsiung, as the first Taiwanese county town to be recovered by the Chinese Empire, had to take these issues into account.

At this moment, Liu Zhilang was faintly envious of Jin Dadi, at least he didn't have to face this situation, and that kid was running very fast.

"Siege! After entering, the platoon is used to clear the battlefield, and the assault man pays attention to avoiding civilians. If it involves its own safety, it is allowed to fire at anyone. Liu Zhilang ordered.

Assaulter, this is a new title, there is only one assault in a squad, served by a rifleman, and the assaulter is equipped with two weapons, one is a normal rifle, and the other is a shotgun for assault, which is a weapon designed for street fighting, and it is extremely lethal in a small area.
