[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 502: Mining Area (Ask for subscriptions, ask for monthly passes, ask for everything!) )
Speaking of the Yanggu County mining area, I have to talk about An Pei again, although An Pei is sometimes proud and doesn't know why, but he is a very shrewd person, he knows what is the point.
At the same time, this man paid great attention to collecting war reports from various theaters, and some time ago the military newspapers of the front army headquarters often published news of frequent attacks by the Shina people on various mining areas. This immediately attracted Ampere's attention, so he put one-third of his troops in the Yanggu County mining area.
However, due to the frequent dispatches of Ma Zheng's headquarters during this period, the Japanese army's strength was seriously damaged. At the same time, it also caused the strength of the defenders of Yanggu County to be stretched, so in order to clean up the mess as soon as possible, Ampere had to transfer a large part of the troops in the mining area.
After Ma Zheng learned of this situation, he secretly sighed that he was lucky. Although he has a lot of troops in his hands, Ma Zheng himself has no idea what the combat effectiveness of these people is. However, one-on-one is certainly not the opponent of the Japanese army, which is mainly reflected in the familiarity of thermal weapons and the level of shooting. After all, war is about who can kill the enemy before the bullets are fired, otherwise you will be the one who dies.
In this regard, the Japanese army did a better job, and Ma Zheng still has some troops who are not even fully equipped with guns, so how can they talk about this, so Ma Zheng himself is also very worried about this battle.
He wasn't worried about losing the battle, after reconnaissance of the Yanggu County mining area, there was only one infantry squadron, a machine gun squad and a small number of puppet troops, adding up to less than five hundred people. However, there are now more than 3,000 people in Ma Zheng's department, and 3,000 people are against 4 or 500 people, and there should be no suspense about the outcome of the outcome.
But what Ma Zheng cared about was the casualties of this battle, if he returned with a disastrous victory, Ma Zheng himself felt that there was nothing to be happy about, 3,000 people went to attack the defense area of 5 or 600 people, and as a result, thousands of people were killed and wounded, such a result was not what Ma Zheng wanted at all.
However, when Ma Zheng really arrived at the mining area in Yanggu County, he realized that the Japanese army here was far from being good in terms of quantity and quality. Although it is barely enough to survive than the current unit in his hands, it is far from the field troops of the Japanese North China Front.
Ma Zheng has his own set of methods for dealing with such troops, especially against such a ragtag army composed of both Japanese regular troops and Japanese ronin expatriates, as well as a puppet army composed of Chinese, the composition of this kind of force is too complicated, and there are certainly many contradictions in it, as long as one is defeated, the other will not be able to jump.
After Ma Zheng looked at the terrain of the mining area, he immediately ordered Lei Zhenhua, the commander of the second regiment, to divide the troops into two roads, and concentrate all the light and heavy machine guns in the whole army all the way. Attack the flank of the Japanese army with all your might, that is, the area where the Japanese ronin and puppet army are defending. Ma Zheng's strategy was to concentrate the superior forces to clean up the soft persimmons in the Japanese army first, and deal with the remaining hard bones last.
Ma Zheng believes that the fighting will of these second-line garrison troops is not as good as that of those field troops, and those field troops still have soldiers who have surrendered, and as for these guys, they are likely to surrender to them if the war is unfavorable.
Seeing the virtue of the little devil in the turret in the mining area from the high-powered telescope, Ma Zheng couldn't help but shake his head. This is not at the same level as the Japanese divisions and regiments that have fought before, especially those two devils in the north are even worse mess. What made Ma Zheng feel the most incredible was that the city of Yanggu County in front of him had already become a pot of porridge, but there were only two Japanese soldiers on the machine gun position in the mining area, and the two heavy machine guns were set aside.
On the contrary, there was a large group of people in the open field less than fifty meters away from the machine gun position, and there was even a devil lieutenant inside, and it seemed that these people were actually drinking. The highest military commander in the entire Yanggu County is also a Shao Zuo, and the commander of the mining area, Ma Zheng, has also known in advance that he is a captain, and that lieutenant already belongs to the existence of the chief level in this place, I didn't expect this lieutenant to dare to take the lead in eating and drinking here at this time.
Ma Zheng knew that this was a very rare opportunity, so he quickly launched an attack after the troops were all in position. Again, a regiment may not be much, but in this small place of Yanggu County, a regiment is already a huge team.
Ma Zheng's attack was very sharp, and before the Japanese puppet army could react, they built a machine-gun position on the small slope to the east. The strength of the Japanese army in the northeast is mainly the puppet army, and the number of Japanese troops is very small, which is the focus of Ma Zheng's attack.
After the guns were fired, the soldiers shot as the instructors had taught them during the training. A little soldier just poked his head out and aimed at a little devil who was crawling on the ground is a shot, the gun went off, but it didn't hit, but it scared the little devil half to death.
There were not many Japanese troops in the eastern position, there were only more than 40 in total, and they were killed by the snipers sent by Ma Zheng in less than five minutes of fighting.
The battle situation in the northeast is going well, the Japanese army has been wiped out, and there are less than 300 puppet troops left with weak combat effectiveness. Of course, Ma Zheng doesn't plan to care about these two devils who are slipping away, anyway, there are still a few companies on the periphery, and the fate of these two devils has long been doomed.
After the battle to the northeast of the mining area began, the Japanese troops in the southwest of the heavily fortified mining area quickly assembled, and under the command of a lieutenant officer, they directed the infantry and machine gunners to enter the predetermined positions on one side, and ordered a second lieutenant to lead a reinforced squad of elite infantry to urgently reinforce the positions in the northeast direction of the mining area.
This is exactly what Ma Zheng wants to see, to be honest, he has been fighting with the little devil for nearly two years, and the establishment below the wing is no longer attractive to the current Ma Zheng, at least the Japanese army at the brigade level can make Ma Zheng have the desire to eliminate.
But training is different, it is necessary to use these brigades or even squadron level troops, where it has been heard that the field divisions of the Japanese army are used to train soldiers. That would not be training, but a red fruit field to deliver vegetables to the Japanese army.
On the contrary, Ma Zheng is a hungry wolf, who only takes advantage of the situation and does not suffer losses, which is the consensus of all senior officers of the North China Front.
This reaction of the Japanese army had long been expected by Ma Zheng, and it was clearly stipulated in the Japanese army's infantry tactical drill that once one side fell into the enemy's siege and was in a critical situation. The other party has the ability to rescue, and the trapped party is still worth being rescued, and the other party may not refuse rescue for any reason.
Ma Zheng knew this because he knew this, so he dug a pit for the little devils that they had to jump. From this point of view, Ma Zheng is really bad to the bone. However, his badness is liked by all Chinese, and I wish he had been bad a few more times.
Seeing the Japanese commander holding the command knife, Ma Zheng shook his head disdainfully, and said to Liang Shangren on the side: "Order a general attack, the Japanese army's forces have been separated, and those little devils in the southwest are only one squad when they are full, or even less, and we will encounter a lot less resistance to attack at this time." At the same time, the Northeast has been dragging on for a long time, and it's time to close the net. ”
"Lei Er was stunned, you go to the northeast region to supervise the battle, but don't meddle in the battle situation, let the battalion and company commanders under your command realize their mistakes by themselves, and learn more firmly in the battle than ever. Your reminder will only make them make the same mistake next time, and it will not meet the requirements of our training at all. Go ahead, end the battle in half an hour. ”
"Yes, Commander, take care!"
After Liang Shangren left, Ma Zheng led the guard team to the southwest region to command the battle, of course, this command was not a command in the usual sense. Because Ma Zheng knew that the Japanese army in today's Yang Mining Area had no reinforcements, and An Pei Shaozuo was already too busy to take care of himself, how could he have time to care about them, so Ma Zheng had time to use these people to train his troops.
