Chapter 309: Attack
The chief of staff replied in a low voice: "According to the analysis, we deduce that all of these more than 1,000 warriors should have died in the hands of the first regiment of the Liaodong Army......
"The Liaodong Army has stationed a regiment of more than 2,000 people in Anshan to guard against a possible surprise attack by us......"
"In the entire territory of Anshan, there is and only this regiment that can launch a sneak attack on us and retreat in such a short time......" The anger on the commander-in-chief's face was aroused again, and he scolded loudly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"One regiment of the Liaodong Army can destroy more than a thousand of our warriors, what does the front-line commander eat, why not counterattack, why?"
"Please calm the anger of the Commander-in-Chief...... There must be a reason why the defenders of the fortresses at each level did not fight back. I guess they must not know the specific strength of the sneak attack force, and they are afraid that the Liaodong Army is attacking the east and the west, so they dare not fight back......"
"Add to this the fact that the reserves of one of our infantry wings are too far away from them, and by the time they receive the news and reinforce the battlefield, the enemy attacking our patrols has already retreated......"
"Baga, the cunning Liaodong Army, if you have the ability to fight with us on the frontal battlefield, you will sneak up on a sneak attack, what kind of warrior is it? When we defeat the Russians, we must send heavy troops to retaliate against them and destroy them......" The Japanese commander-in-chief once again opened his mouth and scolded, completely ignoring his identity and status as commander-in-chief......
At this time, the chief of staff comforted: "Please send the commander to rest assured, from now on, the first-line defenders of Anshan of our army will never be attacked by the Liaodong Army again......"
"I intend to order the defenders of the eight checkpoint fortresses on the Anshan line to no longer send any patrol troops from today onwards......"
"If the checkpoint is attacked, with the strength and terrain of the stronghold, you can hold out for at least a day."
"At the same time, all defenders are strictly ordered to call for help as soon as the checkpoint is attacked......"
"In order to avoid enemy attacks on reinforcements, the size of the reinforcements must be more than one infantry brigade......"
"That way, it doesn't matter which level is attacked. Reinforcements can arrive on the battlefield within four hours, and together with the defenders, defeat the Liaodong Army's attack, or even launch a counterattack against the Liaodong Army. Exterminate them......"
"Yo Xi ......" The commander-in-chief's face full of anger finally showed a rare smile.
Subsequently, he replied to the chief of staff: "Now our troops are insufficient, and we can only focus on defense against the Liaodong Army......
"When the two divisions arrive, we will counterattack. Take advantage of the expansion of the Liaodong Army. Strength has plummeted, and they will be eliminated in one fell swoop......"
"In addition, our intelligence services are reminded that the main forces of the Liaodong Army must be closely monitored. Because they failed to provide information in time, the Imperial Japanese Army had already lost nearly two infantry brigades, and I don't want to see them make mistakes again......"
"Hi...... Your Excellency the Commander wisely ......"
The Japanese General Headquarters did not expect that their order, by mistake, was exactly as Yang Xingguo of the Liaodong Army wished.
The Japanese troops defending the fortresses at eight checkpoints could not hold out, and the six main regiments of the Liaodong Army received interspersed tasks. Immediately, with light and heavy machine guns and grenades, they followed the mountain path, under the cover of night, and slaughtered into the hinterland of the Japanese army.
Subsequently, these six main regiments were like six lurking hunters, hiding in the designated area of Yang Xingguo, quietly waiting for the Japanese army to take the bait.
Yang Xingguo, commander of the Liaodong Army, in order to get closer to the battlefield, he had already taken Sun Liechen and several staff officers to transfer the headquarters to the headquarters of the first regiment in Anshan County.
Not a big county. The cavalry heralds kept running out and running into the county town, sending every move of the enemy to the headquarters.
Seeing that the three main siege regiments were all in place. However, the Japanese army has not received any news because they have not been able to hold out.
Yang Xingguo's eyes immediately shot out two scorching gazes.
Commanded to Sun Liechen: "Chief of Staff, the three main regiments will start attacking......"
Soon, one of the Japanese strongholds closest to the county seat became lively.
Six field artillery shells. Six mountain artillery shells, with a piercing whistling sound of breaking through the air, steadily smashed into the Japanese barracks and exploded.
Because the Japanese troops were scattered in the barracks for lunch at the time of the shelling, no devil reacted in the face of the shelling of the tigers.
After the explosion of the shell. Almost a small squad was drowned in the artillery fire on the spot.
However, the elite is the elite after all, and after a short period of shock and panic, the remaining devils quickly dropped the lunch box. Pick up your weapon and rush to the position.
When the second round of shells fired by the Liaodong Army came to the Japanese military camp again, the devil no longer had the panic he had at the beginning.
One by one, it was as if they were conducting another combat exercise, and they all lay on the ground and held their heads.
However, even so, twelve shells caused them more than two dozen losses.
However, the devil did not care about these losses in the slightest.
As soon as the round of shelling stopped, the devil lying on the ground jumped up and continued to run in the direction of the position.
And at this moment, there is no need for the Liaodong Army, which is lurking six or seven hundred meters away from the checkpoint, to continue to hide.
They rushed out of the bushes and woods where they were hiding, carrying or carrying weapons, and rushed to the Japanese stronghold with a scream.
Three hundred meters, three hundred meters away from the Japanese position at the checkpoint, more than a dozen heavy machine guns were quickly erected. Facing the Japanese position, more than a dozen heavy machine guns were fired without reservation.
As for the ordinary rifleman, he quickly carried his rifle and dug the trench with a sapper shovel.
At this time, the ghost soldiers who had already re-entered the position also reacted.
The devil officer in the middle, like a hungry wolf smelling blood, shouted to his subordinates around him: "Counterattack, counterattack immediately...... Heavy machine guns, shoot right away, suppress enemy fire, repel them......"
The Japanese army's sharp counterattack was fearless of death, and more than a dozen recruits of the Liaodong Army were immediately defeated.
But that's where their good fortune ends.
The artillery position of the Liaodong Army, twelve mountain and field guns, immediately aimed their guns at the positions of more and more devils.
As soon as the devils fired back, twelve shells flew towards them with a screeching sound.
In the first round of shelling, only three shells hit the position, and several devils flew out of the position and turned into corpses.
However, the violent explosion of shells startled the other devils.
In front of them, there were more than a dozen heavy machine guns of the Liaodong Army to suppress the firepower, and there were powerful shells overhead that could fall on the side at any time and explode.
In the face of the death crisis that can be seen everywhere, the devil can no longer be arrogant.
In order to survive, many devils chose to squat in the trenches to avoid artillery fire, and let the Liaodong Army dig trenches in the open space 300 meters away.
The captain of the Japanese army defending the stronghold, although he did not come to the front line in person.
However, with the help of telescopes, the battlefield situation was clearly visible to him.
In fact, without looking, just listening, listening to the dense gunfire on the battlefield, the captain can judge the strength of the Liaodong Army attacking himself.
"A regiment, the strength of the Liaodong Army is definitely more than one regiment, and it is also equipped with a brigade of artillery......"
After affirming his judgment, the captain ordered without thinking about it: "The Liaodong Army has dispatched so many people, it must want to destroy us and take this level......
"Quick, immediately send someone to ask for help from the surrounding defenders...... Also, ask for help from the reserve behind and hurry up. (To be continued.) )
