Section 9 Lishui Counterattack IV
The color wave continued to rush forward after a slight exhaustion, and the explosion wave of the shells behind the enemy was cut off, and the Japanese attack was weak and forced to fire at the defenders. Full/Ben\Small/Say\Net/
The fierce battle of Jintan continued, and the same as Zhuang Jihua, the eyes of the Japanese commander Matsui Ishine were also fixed on Jintan, and the hasty retreat of the 23rd Brigade from Lishui Castle shook the Tokyo base camp and the emperor, and the emperor rarely personally summoned Sugiyama Mototo and the chief of the general staff Tada Jun to inquire in detail about the current situation in Nanjing, all of which made Matsui Ishine feel great pressure.
"Order, the commander of the Sixth Division, Gu Shoufu, will command our army on the Jintan front." Matsui Ishine was very dissatisfied with the attack on Jintan some time ago, but what he was even more dissatisfied with was Yanagawa Heisuke, whether it was the destruction of the armored column or the attack on Guangde, the Tenth Army did not complete the task of the front army, conquered Guangde on time, occupied Wuhu, and cut off the retreat of the Nanjing squadron, but now is not the time to liquidate Yanagawa Heisuke.
"Hai," the chief of staff, Major General Tsukada Tsukashi, agreed, and then said with some apprehension, "Commander, I think that the root cause of this situation is that we have insufficient troops, and we have underestimated the strength of the Chinese army from Sichuan. This army is well-equipped, almost the same as the imperial ** team, and its combat effectiveness exceeds that of other Chinese armies, and it is even known as the elite German armor division of the Central Army of China. ”
Matsui Shigen frowned, what Tsukada said was basically called the consensus of the front army, if Luodian did not know the Sichuan army, then the subsequent Taicang and Wuxi showed that this Sichuan army had high morale, was brave and good at fighting, and had a very high tactical level, which was extremely difficult to deal with; The Sichuan Army, which was now counterattacking at Lishui, and the Sichuan Army defending at Guangde belonged to the same new No. 49 Group Army, and the tactical capability displayed by this unit surpassed that of the 24 th Group Army that appeared in Luodian and Wuxi.
"Commander, after the battle in Shanghai, we waved our troops straight forward, and the troops did not go through any rest and replenishment, the troops were very tired, and their combat capability was seriously reduced," Tsukada paused here, glanced at Matsui Ishine, and said: "Commander, I suggest that we request reinforcements from home and stop the offensive for the time being." ”
This not only surprised Matsui Ishone, but also made the other staff officers on the side feel a little surprised, no one expected that Tsukada would actually propose reinforcements now, and he would stop the attack.
"Chief of Staff," without waiting for Matsui Ishine to speak, Takano, the chief of the operations section, couldn't help but retort: "The battle situation is still under the control of the Imperial Army, although the 23rd Brigade has suffered some setbacks, but Lieutenant General Ushijima has already led his troops to help, and he can rush to Lishui within two days to relieve the danger." ”
"Yes, only by conquering Nanking as soon as possible can we achieve the goal of punishing China, and at the same time can we force the Chiang Kai-shek government to agree to the terms of peace in the empire." Another staff officer also said loudly.
"The majesty of the imperial army must not be frightened by a single counterattack."
The staff officers in the war room suddenly made a noise. The staff officers were filled with righteous indignation. Expressed dissatisfaction with Tsukada's proposal to attack the land. almost accused Tsukada of being cowardly and cowardly. Unworthy of being the chief of staff of the front.
"Tsukada-kun. Too cautious. Matsui waved his hand gently. The voices in the room immediately disappeared: "We are not at the point where we are asking for reinforcements yet. ”
Tsukada smiled bitterly. He proposed this simplification mainly in consideration of the attack on Nanjing. It doesn't seem to be in need of reinforcements right now. It's time to need reinforcements. It's too late. The Chinese are already about to evacuate Nanjing. This shows that they are already planning to fight the imperial army in Nanjing.
"But in order to relieve Tsukada Kimichi's concerns. I ordered the Sato Brigade to be transferred from the 101st Division. and the Chongteng detachment to form the Chongteng detachment. Forward to Wujin. As a reserve for the front. ”
"Commander. The 101st Division maintained the security of the rear. Garrisoned a large area from Taicang to Jiaxing. The forces themselves are insufficient. Again," Tsukada reminded.
"Nothing. The squadron has been..."
Before Matsui Ishone's words were finished, an officer rushed into the war room quickly, and Matsui was furious: "Eight grids! ”
The officer stood and bowed his head: "Hai," and then looked up: "Commander, the Changshu logistics base has been attacked and the stored ammunition has been destroyed." In addition, the military train bound for Wuxi was also bombed. ”
"Nani," Matsui was surprised: "Chinese Air Force dry ground? ”
"No, it should be a sneak attack by a small group of the Zhina army." The officer replied: "The bodies of several soldiers of the Shina Army were left at the scene. ”
Matsui was furious: "Bastard! The holy war is at a critical moment, and he is so derelict in his duties, and the captain of the base should apologize to His Majesty the Emperor. Ordered the garrison to build the Beijing-Shanghai railway within two days, otherwise they would apologize to His Majesty. ”
Matsui's order was conveyed immediately, but then a report was received that the first-line transportation line of Wuxing Nanxun Jiaxing had been attacked continuously, and the garrison was exhausted and suffered heavy losses, and the garrison captain was killed in the crusade.
At this time, no one in the war room spoke casually, obviously, this was a conscious and organized action on the Chinese side, Tsukada saw Matsui looking at him, so he said calmly: "The line from Jiaxing to Wuxing, hundreds of kilometers long, there is only one garrison brigade, less than 1,000 people, and the number of troops is insufficient. The Chinese army invested troops here, apparently planning to cut off the supply of our southern front army. ”
Matsui snorted coldly: "It's so easy to cut off the supply of our army, how many people can they invest, there are too many people to hide, at most it is harassment, causing a tense situation, forcing us to transfer troops from the front line back to defense, this is how they did it in the Rehe operation back then, I am not Muto Nobuyoshi." ”
After the defeat of the Rehe battle, Muto Nobuyoshi became a laughing stock in the military circles, and finally died of depression. Matsui had repeatedly studied the Rehe Campaign, believing that if he did not transfer troops from the front line, but instead attacked the Great Wall with all his might, he could completely break through the defense line of the defenders of the Great Wall, so that the Atahe armistice agreement would be of great benefit to the Empire.
The Chinese side has resorted to this trick again, and of course he will not be fooled.
"Order the garrison to be strictly guarded, send heavy troops to escort every time you send military quarters to the front line, and increase vigilance along the way." Matsui Ishone categorically ordered.
Zhao Hanjie lay in a drainage ditch, there is a lot of water in the south of the Yangtze River, there are many such drainage ditches, everywhere, he has a camouflage made of a few nests of aquatic plants on his head, look up at the road opposite, on the other side of the highway are the other two detachments led by Peng Yaoshi, this ambush will start from him first.
More than forty cars appeared on the road in the distance, and the long convoy was beautiful, this section of the road was not complicated, as far as the eye could see, and there was no obstruction; The soldiers on the convoy were relaxed, and only a few vehicles were on the ground with machine guns still in their hands.
The convoy entered the ambush circle one after another, and the front and back cars were full of soldiers, Zhao Hanjie roughly estimated, about one hundred and thirty or forty escort soldiers, he sneered in his heart, after several attacks, the little devils were also vigilant, but more than 100 people wanted to send this batch of materials to the front line, and they underestimated our special forces.
Rumble! "Boom!" The four cars in front and behind suddenly exploded, and then there was the sound of machine guns clicking on the ground, and the crisp sound of shooting, the gunfire was not intense, but it was very rhythmic, the little devil jumped out of the car with a scream, and the machine gun on the roof of the car screamed wildly, but almost at the same time, the machine gun sound was broken.
There was a slight sound of water around him, Zhao Hanjie knew that it was the brother who was ambushed in the water, he couldn't help it, he patted the water lightly, let them hide well, now is not the time for them to attack.
Two more cars exploded, these were two cars loaded with ammunition, and the explosion caused a chain reaction, and the violent explosion lifted the cars up, killing and wounding the soldiers around them.
Several Japanese soldiers set up mortars and bombarded the opposite side, the shells flew towards the ambush point, the commander waved his command knife and commanded the soldiers to rush towards the ambush line, but after a few steps, the commander fell headlong, followed by machine gunners, mortar gunners.
Zhao Hanjie couldn't help laughing, the bastard Guo Yaoshi must be stealing fun over there, the two bazookas named the cars one by one, and the Japanese soldiers either stood around the car and watched the cars being bombed, or they came out of hiding and were named by the snipers.
The Japanese commander must have also been aware of this problem, and a large number of soldiers left their hiding places and quickly rushed to the ambush point, Zhao Hanjie arranged the ambush line very loosely, every 20 meters in a group, each group of ten people, including four snipers, one light machine gunner, five semi-automatic gunners, and four bazookas formed two swimming groups, guerrilla combat on the entire ambush line.
"It's our turn." Zhao Hanjie shouted in a low voice, when the Japanese army was led out of the convoy, Zhao Hanjie will lead another detachment, quickly assault the convoy, and blow up the car as much as possible, the entire ambush time is only half an hour, after half an hour, regardless of whether the car is destroyed or not, it will retreat, and there is also a detachment outside the halfway road to monitor the movement of the enemy troops in Wuxing County.
More than 30 men came out of the water, and thanks to the training at the beginning, they were able to hide in the water in such cold weather.
Zhao Hanjie waved his hand, and thirty soldiers lowered their bodies and rushed towards the convoy, and their detachment dispatched more than 20 people to monitor the detachment, including bazookas, and the rest of the ground was soaked in water.
The gunfire on the other side of the road was more intense, but it could not hide the rhythmic shooting, and the second lieutenant Sakata, who commanded the charge, was numb, he did not know what kind of unit it was, and he was not nervous in the face of their charge, and he still had a clear shot
A string of flames flew from an ambush point on the opposite side, and a large explosion occurred in the car behind it. "Eight squares." Sakata scolded in a low voice, but he didn't dare to look up, just now the lieutenant waved the command knife out, and was overturned by the bullet on the opposite side, he checked the body, it was shot in the forehead, he knew that there was a sniper on the other side.
Another car exploded behind him, and then fierce gunfire was heard behind him, and Sakata looked back to see several figures in strange costumes haunting the middle of the convoy.
"There's an ambush in the back, too." Tian slapped the ground twice in frustration, there was only a small ditch not far behind, and they would actually lie in ambush in the ditch, such a cold day,...
"Hooray!" Sakata got up and brandished his command knife and shouted, he knew that he would not survive, even if he dodged the Chinese ground bullets, it would make him seppuku, forty cars were destroyed, this is a serious dereliction of duty, it is better than seppuku.
"Pop" a bullet spun and rushed into Sakata's forehead. Then flew out of the back of his head, with a puddle of brains and blood.
Zhao Hanjie's assault team divided into six groups, rushed into the convoy, threw two or three grenades into each car, and then quickly ran to the next one, Garand semi-automatic rifles took advantage of this kind of melee combat, and the three eight guns pulled the bolt every time they pulled the trigger, and there was no time to deal with Garand's continuous fire.
Zhao Hanjie's surprise attack from behind completely disrupted the Japanese army's fully established defenses, the entire convoy was in chaos, the cars exploded one after another, and the living soldiers retreated in a panic, but the Chinese soldiers with camouflage nets on their backs chased after them, and one car after another exploded.
The two long whistles passed through the fierce gunfire and artillery fire, the gunfire in the convoy was thinned, and the special operators quickly crossed the battle line through the gap in the enemy group, rendezvoused with the members of the ambush point, and then withdrew into the distance, and the Japanese made only a symbolic pursuit, and then returned to the road, looking at the more than 30 cars that had been blown up.
