[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 213: Beat the Reservoir Dogs (Ask for subscription)
In fact, there is no need for Ma Zheng to be so desperate, he and his troops went south because of the situation, and it was just a conspiracy and trickery by the Nationalist Government. Even if he comes, he won't come to complete a deal, so as long as he doesn't desert, no one will say anything about him.
But Ma Zheng did not allow his Duqi Division to only go to the Wuhan battlefield to play soy sauce once, and then roll back to the north in a gloomy manner. He was a man who was loyal to the country and the nation and their loyalty, and the reason why he resolutely led his troops south was that he did not want to see the Battle of Wuhan as tragic as it was in history.
Although the Nationalist Government fought bravely during the Battle of Wuhan in history, the million-strong army and the Japanese army fought fiercely for several months, and there were traces of fighting on the thousand-mile-long front between Wuhan in Anqing Road. There was even a great victory at Wanjialing, in which a division of the Japanese army was completely annihilated, but in the end, Wuhan was lost, the crisis in China was further deepened, and a tactical victory could not reverse the strategic defeat.
Now that he Ma Zheng has come to this magnificent era and come to Wuhan, he can't watch Wuhan fall to Little Japan like this. Besides, he Ma Zheng didn't come alone, he came with nearly 8,000 warriors.
Therefore, Ma Zheng has been attacking since he went south, and he wants to use his achievements to prove that the Eighth Route Army is not here to fight soy sauce, let alone to be cannon fodder.
He did it, the special combat team destroyed the Japanese naval fleet, captured the Jiujiang and destroyed the Botian detachment, annihilated the 47th Wing of the Sixth Division, and recovered the 101st Division of the Japanese Army, which had been severely damaged at Hukou.
But Ma Zheng felt that this was not enough, Jiangxi was his hometown. The small mountain village a few hundred kilometers south of Nanchang is where he was born, and when he returns to his hometown, he will bring supreme glory to the people of his hometown.
On the afternoon of August 2, Tie Niu came to Ma Zheng's tent with a written document to report on his work. This is all the information that their special forces have collected in a day.
After reconnaissance, the defenders of Pengze County at this time were not as many as Ma Zheng imagined, only an incomplete infantry 157 wing and a division headquarters, in addition to the Japanese army in Pengze periphery Furong Dun Town, Huanghua Town, Xiaogushan each arranged a wing, in addition to Madang Town, 40 kilometers away from Pengze County, the 106th Division headquarters and all the direct troops of the division were stationed, including engineers, artillery, cavalry and baggage troops.
The Japanese army had obviously guessed that the Ninth Theater might carry out a counteroffensive, so the 101st and 106th remnant divisions were grouped together, and there was quite a posture of stubborn resistance.
After listening to Tie Niu's report, Ma Zhengle is really helped. The Japanese would have deployed their forces in this way.
To tell the truth, the Japanese army's arrangement was a bit unexpected by Ma Zheng, he originally thought that the Japanese army would deploy the main force of the 103rd, 157th, 113th Wing and all the directly subordinate troops in Pengze County, and would only arrange a few infantry brigades on the periphery, so as not to be caught off guard when the time comes.
However, Ma Zheng obviously overestimated the command ability of the Japanese commanders, and they obviously did not learn the lesson of the last time. There is no lightness, no weight, forgetting that there is a tactic called guerrilla warfare. Call for reinforcements.
In fact, Ma Zheng wished Yin Dong Zhengxi and Matsuura Junrokuro, these two Japanese lieutenant generals had no experience in fighting with the Eighth Route Army, so they naturally did not know about guerrilla warfare and encirclement reinforcements. They have always been fighting against the Nationalist Government, fighting regular positional warfare, and the tactics of both sides are similar, and when fighting, they have deployed heavy troops in advance. The forces on both flanks should not be too weak, otherwise they are likely to be outflanked by the enemy, especially when they are on the defensive.
They could have imagined that there would suddenly be such a variable as the Duqi Division, and they would not play their cards according to common sense in the war, and they could even come up with the tactics of the army swimming and the navy.
But for whatever reason. In short, Ma Zheng saw the fighter plane and immediately called 8 regiment commanders to assign tasks.
Under the big locust tree by the river, Ma Zheng laid the map on a large clean stone, and then asked, "Have you rested well?" ”
"Rest!" Several regiment commanders said in unison.
"Just get a good rest! After resting, they are ready to work, and now the enemy situation is like this, with Pengze County as the center, the Japanese army has arranged an infantry wing in Xiaogushan in the north, Furongdun Town in the west, Huanghua Town in the south, and Madang Town in the east, and the regimental headquarters of the 101st Division is stationed in Pengze County, while the regimental headquarters of the 106th Division and all the directly subordinate troops are stationed in Madang Town. Ma Zheng said in a deep voice.
As soon as Ma Zheng's words fell, Xu Hu of the Independent Regiment couldn't help but say: "Was the little devil's head kicked by a donkey, isn't this arrangement clearly telling us to surround and send reinforcements?" ”
"It may be that the Japanese army in front of us is not very familiar with our tactics, but it doesn't matter, since the Japanese army has arranged it like this, then why should we be polite to them." Ma Zheng said with a smile.
Ma Zheng continued: "My idea is that the Independent Regiment, the Supplementary 1st Regiment and the Artillery Regiment will besiege Furong Dun Town! The Guard Regiment, the 2nd Supplementary Regiment and the Fire Support Regiment made a detour to Baiquanwan and Xincun before setting up an ambush at Qingtou Mountain, while the 200th Regiment and the 3rd Supplementary Regiment bypassed Furongdun Town and set up an ambush at No. 7 Yu, 15 kilometers east of the town. This side of Furong Dun Town is under the command of Chief of Staff Huang, which side of Qingtou Mountain is under the command of Commander Xing, and the side of No. 7 is under the command of me personally. ”
"Chief of Staff Huang, the enemy you face is the 103rd Wing of the Japanese Army, and there is also an infantry regiment of the puppet army. However, it is understood that the puppet army infantry regiment is just an empty shelf, with a total strength of less than 300 people, which can barely be regarded as an infantry battalion, and the actual combat effectiveness may not be comparable to that of a small squad of the Japanese army. ”
Huang Sicheng smiled and said: "It seems that this pseudo-regiment commander still has a lot of face, and the Japanese insisted on upgrading an infantry reinforcement company to an infantry regiment." However, this kind of upgrade may only be able to be done by the Japanese army in the face of the puppet army, only the empty number is given, and other weapons and ammunition are not given. ”
Ma Zheng continued: "The total strength of your two infantry regiments plus artillery regiments has reached 9,000 people, which is more than three times that of the Japanese army. And the firepower is also stronger than the Japanese army, so even if you open fire when you fight, it directly hurts the little devil. As long as you have a good start here, then the next drama will be easy to sing! ”
Huang Sicheng smiled and said: "I understand, only if we hurt the little devils on our side, can we fully mobilize the little devils in Pengze City to send reinforcements, and then the matter will be done." ”
"Well, that's what it means, and you must show your identity when you fight, so that the little devil knows that it is our Duqi Division who is here!" Ma Zheng said.
"Why?"
"First, let the little devil know who is beating him, and secondly, to lure the Japanese army into being fooled!" Ma Zheng said with a smile.
Huang Sicheng asked puzzledly: "Why do we show our identities and enemies will be fooled?" ”
"Hehe, the Japanese army likes to guess the opponent's strength according to the number, because they are different from us, they are in an invasion operation, and they cannot compare with our own troops in terms of intelligence, so they can only guess the enemy's strength according to the opponent's number. As long as the little devil does this, then it will be equivalent to falling into the pit, and we now have more than one division! Ma Zheng said with a smile.
After Ma Zheng's explanation, everyone suddenly realized! is also said that if the Japanese army deduces the strength of the Duqi Division based on the number, it will really fall into a big pit. The Seventh Division had more than 28,000 troops, and even if there was a regiment at Hukou, it would have at least 24,000 men, which was equivalent to the strength of three divisions of the Nationalist Government.
"Commander, what if the Japanese army doesn't come for reinforcements?" Major Li Hongming, who had just been appointed as the head of the Supplementary First Regiment, asked.
"It's better not to come, take advantage of the situation to eat the 103rd Wing of the Japanese army in Furong Dun Town, and when the time comes, the army will besiege the city, and our more than 20,000 troops will not be able to attack a small Pengze County." Ma Zheng said in a deep voice.
Huang Sicheng also said: "With our understanding of the Japanese army, it is unlikely that a strong attack will be made. The Japanese army will definitely come to reinforce, and just in case, the Japanese army will definitely send reinforcements in two ways, respectively from Pengze County and Huanghua Town to send troops to reinforce Furong Dun Town, the silver bullet Furong Dun Town is lost, Peng Ze will be completely exposed to our guns, the Japanese army will not allow such a thing to happen. ”
Ma Zheng nodded and said: "Remember, we are facing two lost dogs, which are not as powerful as you think, what we are doing now is to beat the water dogs." Pass my order, eat at five o'clock, and the troops will move when it is dark. ”
"Yes!"
