578: The Japanese army is getting smarter and smarter

'Hiss-hiss......'

'Smack......'

The fog was gradually receding, and the visibility still did not reach the ideal range, and the Japanese army took advantage of the cover of the fog to rush to a range of nearly 500 meters or so, and when the figure of the first Japanese soldier appeared in front of the officers and men of the 371st Division, a whole scattered position was instantly gunfired.

Regardless of whether or not you can see the Japanese soldiers, at this moment, almost no one stopped, the machine guns were firing rhythmically at different positions, and the rifles were firing randomly according to personal feelings.

As for whether or not they can hit the Japanese army, this is actually not important.

When the first Japanese army appears in sight, it often means that more Japanese troops are not far from the position.

For a well-trained army that is not afraid of death or injury, the distance of 500 meters is only a few minutes, and it is only a matter of time to break through this defensive line.

But for those who are not well trained, the distance of 500 meters can be transformed into a hellish field, which will be their final burial place.

The 3rd Division is an elite unit of the Japanese army with rich combat experience and a high level of training, although the previous 3rd Division was captured by the Chinese Empire, and the entire 3rd Division has also suffered heavy losses, but after a few years, the 3rd Division has once again recovered its vitality, and under the leadership of some veterans in the troops, the 3rd Division has a faint trend of re-rising.

The military strength of the Chinese Empire is constantly increasing, whether it is the combat experience of the army, the command experience of the officers of the troops, the available talents, or the weapons and equipment of the army, all of which are soaring at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, the Japanese army is not still standing still, and through so many large and small battles, the Japanese army has also learned a lot of relevant experience in modern warfare.

The only reason that limited the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army was that Japan's territory was narrow, resulting in almost no strategic resources on the mainland, and the navy, a large resource owner, swallowed up the already small resources, resulting in the army having no resources to use.

If it weren't for the rapid development of the world war situation, the army would have reached the point where it would not be able to open the pot, and the Japanese army would never have made any development at this time.

Even those machine guns and mortars added by the army were the result of several months of quarrels between the bigwigs above and the Admiralty, and weapons and equipment were the only obstacles restricting the development of the Japanese army.

If the weapons and equipment are excluded, then what is the real combat level of the Japanese army?

The answer is that the Japanese army with two reorganized divisions is more than 80 percent sure that it will cripple one division of the Imperial Chinese Army, and if it is defeated, perhaps 30,000 to 35,000 Japanese troops can do it. The only advantage of the Imperial Chinese Army was its rich combat experience.

However, combat experience can only play a huge role in the early stage of the war, and in the middle and late stages, everyone's combat experience is about the same, and at this time the situation of weapons and equipment has become the top priority. Logistics will be the key to the victory or defeat of a war.

Japan's own attributes doomed them to such an achievement as the Chinese Empire, which is like a congenital paralyzed child playing basketball or football, and there is no way to compare with a normal person, let alone a professional athlete?

Japanese is now like an athlete with a lot of experience on the field, but he is a disabled person, and he is facing a professional athlete who also has a lot of experience on the field, and he has no physical problems. In this case, as long as his physical defects can be solved, then in a short period of time, he can also compete with the other party, at least not too badly.

But unfortunately, this is the fate of the Japanese, and the emergence of the Chinese Empire has made Japan's strategy fail, and the geographical environment of the Far East has also caused Japan's current situation. If Japan had been able to fight to the death with Russia ten years ago, occupy the Russian Far East, and use the resources there to develop itself, or send heavy troops regardless of obstructions, or even only need to send four or five divisions to destroy Wang Sirui at that time, there would have been no embarrassing situation now.

Japan missed the best opportunity to develop and made the worst decisions, so they have to bear the consequences.

The gunfire suddenly remembered that the Japanese soldiers were caught off guard, and the Japanese soldiers who were walking in the front were unsuspecting and fell to the ground, groaning in pain, silently shedding tears, and looking at the rear with their eyes full of pleading, but no one would come to save them at this time.

In less than ten seconds, the Japanese army, who realized that the battle had begun, quickly fell to the ground, thinking that the other party's vision was definitely not very good, and most of the people behind had not seen the enemy's shadow, that is, the enemy was very likely to have not seen them either.

The fog was both able to help the enemy flee and the Japanese to get closer to the enemy.

Based on previous combat experience, the Japanese army chose to lie down, and then squirmed forward little by little in a more time-wasting way of crawling forward.

Although the speed is very slow, the posture is ugly, but the effect is unusually good, the 371st Division, which cannot see the battlefield situation, can only keep shooting according to its own ideas, a large number of bullets fly over the heads of the Japanese soldiers, and they are only less than one meter away from the body of the Japanese army, but at this time the Japanese soldiers who have fallen to the ground are absolutely safe, unless they are particularly unlucky, this is really no way.

Except for the more than ten seconds when the Japanese army had not reacted at the first meeting, the 371st Division behind could be said to have wasted a lot of ammunition, but it almost did not kill or wound any Japanese soldiers, but in the initial wave of attacks, it brought hundreds of casualties to the 3rd Division.

Looking at the faint fog ahead, Yan Lei frowned slightly, he always felt that something seemed to be wrong, it had been so long, why hadn't he seen the shadow of the Japanese army yet?

Their firepower density simply could not block all the Japanese troops from sight, and now the firepower of the troops has not been completely released, in fact, it is fire reconnaissance, exerting some pressure on the attacking Japanese troops, so that the speed of their attack will be affected.

When the figure of the Japanese army appeared in sight, it was the time for the troops to release all their firepower, and more importantly, now that the enemy situation was unknown, the troops did not dare to leak all the hole cards.

Could it be that the Japanese army retreated? Or are the Japanese soldiers you just saw actually scouts? Is it the vanguard that came to detect the position of the 371st Division?

All kinds of doubts began to appear in Yan Lei's heart, no matter which one was quickly overthrown, because no matter how he guessed, the Japanese army on the opposite side seemed too quiet, and was blocked so fiercely that unless the Japanese army died instantly, it was impossible for them not to even fight back.

It is possible for the reconnaissance troops, they only need to find the position of the enemy, and even if they are discovered by the enemy, they will not fight back, but will find a way to pass the news to the main force in the rear as soon as possible.

'If I'm the main force, if I'm the commander of the Japanese army, what should I do in this situation?' Yan Lei thought secretly in his heart, and quietly observed the defense line on his side, and found that all the weapons were basically shooting in parallel.

If you follow the style of the Japanese army in the past, once it is discovered, it will either retreat, or it will rush up like a madman and send it to death.

But the Japanese army, which suffered so many losses, could not learn nothing.

'If I'm leading the main force there, then the best way to do this is to crawl forward, so that even if the enemy is discovered, it will be more difficult to shoot because of the angle, so as to ensure that more troops can rush into the enemy's line. Yan Lei quickly found the answer.

Yan Lei used the four ifs he learned in the military academy for the first time, and used this way to speculate on what might happen, and then got an answer that has not yet been verified.

The four ifs are if they happen, if they are in the future, if they are delayed, and if they are transposed.

Correspondingly, if you are a commander in battle, how should you deploy? How to arrange a battle? What should you do if the rest of the battle doesn't go as you expected? Or what if the projected supplies are gone? What if you anticipate a situation where there is a delay, or a supply delay? The last one is what to do if you are the commander of an enemy army?

The fourth if is to put you in the opposite position, and then overturn all your previous three ifs, find a way to deal with it, crack it, and then use this method to make up for the shortcomings of the first three ifs.

Yan Lei is only a grassroots commander, and he doesn't need to exercise his heart yet, but if the four are the knowledge that every officer must use, this is a strict requirement from the squad leader level.

Yan Lei patted the machine gunner on the shoulder and ordered: "Three hundred meters away, shoot from the ground." ”

Then he lowered his body and turned his head, and shouted loudly at the mortar in the individual trench not far behind him: "Mortar, within 200 meters to 700 meters, free fire." ”

Yan Lei has absolute confidence that if he guesses correctly this time, then the Japanese army will definitely not grit their teeth and not make any reaction, if the Japanese army is really crawling forward, it will definitely counterattack at this time, because the possibility of not being discovered further forward is already very low.

Although the ground was full of crops, it was able to block the Japanese army.
