Chapter 6: Ambush (Collect)
"Chief of Staff! This is our chance! With our current strength, if we can seize the opportunity and deal with a squadron of little devils, it is completely possible. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 After destroying them, we will be able to rescue our captured brothers and strengthen our strength. We must not let go of such an opportunity. Qin Shou said categorically.
"Regiment commander, now we are not a problem to overturn a squadron of little devils. However, Sun Brabang also has a squadron of little devils. If we can't eat them in the shortest possible time. Once besieged by two squadrons of imps, the consequences can be imagined. Liu Shiquan was a little worried.
The replenishment regiment now has more than a thousand people, but its combat effectiveness is not strong, although its morale has rebounded. However, there is obviously a big gap between the fighters and the elite units of the Japanese army. Two squadrons of Japanese troops, less than five hundred people. But it is by no means something that the supplementary mission can handle.
"I know. But I believe that with the right deployment, we can win. We could choose a place with favorable terrain and ambush a squadron of small RBs. Then, using this as a trap, he ambushed the Japanese troops attacking from Sunbrabang. After they are eliminated, they will send troops to Sun Brabang and take this place down. In this way, we will not only be able to rebuild the confidence of our troops through a few victories. It is more able to fight and develop and grow in one fell swoop! This is undoubtedly Qin Shou's overall plan.
Liu Shiquan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded: "Commander, although there are some adventures." However, now we have no way out but to give it a go. Now that the head of the regiment has decided, let's do it! ”
"Haha, okay. We're going to win. Zhang Erniu, is there a suitable place nearby to ambush the little devils? Qin Shou shouted loudly.
"Yes, Captain. Two kilometres from here is a valley with the road in the middle of the valley. It is also ten kilometers away from Sunbrabeng, and if the little devil wants to arrive from Sunbrabeng, it will take at least an hour or more. If you send one to stop them, you can buy more time. Zhang Erniu marked it directly on the map.
"Okay, pass my order, the whole army will rush to the ambush site and the little devil once!"
Replenish the entire army of the regiment and immediately rush to the selected ambush site. It took half an hour for the supplementary group to arrive on the two-kilometer mountain road. By the time they arrived, the reconnaissance company had already begun to build ambush positions on both sides of the valley.
"The 1 and 2 battalions went to the left, the 3 battalion and the reconnaissance company were on the right. The guard company served as a reserve. Immediately start building a position, pay attention to concealment, and don't let the little devils find out. After the little devils enter the ambush circle, they will first fight them head and tail, block them in the valley, and then find a way to kill them all! Qin Shou gave the order.
This was the first battle after the reorganization of the supplementary regiment, and it was necessary to win it in one battle. In this way, the morale of the troops can be boosted. At the same time, the Japanese troops of this squadron who entered the ambush circle must also be killed.
The replenishment regiment immediately began to build positions. The only four 60-mm mortars and two 81-mm mortars, as well as two 37-mm mortars, were also moved to the hill. Four heavy machine guns and 12 light machine guns were also deployed on both sides of the valley. Ensure that after the Japanese army enters the ambush circle, the condescending firepower can directly strike at the Japanese army.
At the same time, the top soldiers of a squad of the reconnaissance company were also paying close attention to the movements of the Japanese army and reporting to the regimental headquarters at any time.
"Regiment commander, the Japanese army is only half an hour away from us." Zhang Erniu reported with a nervous face.
"Order the ministries to stop building fortifications and take care of concealment." Qin Shou immediately gave an order.
The more than 1,000 men of the supplementary regiment were all scattered in the dense forests on both sides of the valley. With the help of weeds and trees, they dug improvised trenches, foxholes. Sandbags were used as points of machine-gun fire and weeds were laid on them. Behind the trenches, there were mortar positions. Two 37-mm anti-aircraft guns were deployed at the beginning and at the end. Anti-aircraft guns are direct-fire guns that are used to strike vehicles and armored targets with higher accuracy. As soon as the Japanese vehicles entered the valley, the anti-aircraft artillery could ensure their destruction.
Outside the ambush circle of the supplementary regiment, a group of more than 1,000 prisoners escorted by Japanese troops walked down the road. At the front of the line, there are two three-wheeled motorcycles and two trucks. On the roof of the truck, there were Japanese machine guns with crooked handles, and the compartment was full of Japanese soldiers.
In order to wait for the prisoners who were not escorted behind, tricycles and trucks drove very slowly.
In the co-pilot of the second truck sat Captain Yuichi Nishikawa, the squadron leader of the Japanese squadron. Their squadron belonged to the 2nd Brigade of the 46th Infantry Wing of the 23rd Infantry Brigade of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army. The 18th Division, as a well-deserved main force on the battlefield in Burma, fought very bravely in this war, whether it was the British colonial army or the Chinese expeditionary force, they were not their opponents.
This squadron of Yuichi Nishikawa also performed well on the front line, with more than 200 people in the entire squadron, and repeatedly defeated several times the enemy. Of course, it also caused a lot of casualties among themselves, killing dozens of people. It is precisely because of this that the wing commander, Kodai Tochigi, asked him to lead his troops to withdraw from the front line. One is to let him escort some of the captives to Sun Brabang, and on the other hand, he intends to let Nishikawa Yuichi's squadron rest and replenish its strength.
In addition, Tochigi Kodaisa also revealed that Yuichi Nishikawa would take over as the captain of the 2nd Brigade that died in battle, which made Yuichi Nishikawa's heart even hotter.
If he can become the captain of the RB Army at the age of thirty, his future will definitely be bright.
"The big RB empire has a long military fortune, and I can also take this opportunity to get ahead!" Yuichi Nishikawa swore secretly in his heart!
"Quick, let me go!"
An RB soldier slammed the butt of a rifle into the head of a captured expeditionary soldier. Suddenly, the soldiers of the expeditionary force were bleeding profusely from their heads.
However, the soldiers of the expeditionary force did not dare to resist, and the other soldiers of the expeditionary force were also numb in their eyes, as if they were a walking corpse.
"Haha! These lowly Chinese people, just because of them, also want to fight against the big RB Empire, they simply don't know whether they are alive or dead! ”
The little devils began to laugh at the soldiers of the expeditionary force who did not dare to resist.
It's just that these little devils didn't expect that they were dying step by step.
Qin Shou lay in the trench, poked his head out, and looked at the Japanese soldiers who were walking into the ambush circle step by step with a telescope. Their mistreatment of the prisoners of war of the expeditionary force was also clearly seen by him.
"Little devil of Dog * Day, you will soon be paid for your blood debts!"
Soon, the Japanese troops all walked into the ambush circle.
"Hit!" Qin Shou let out a loud shout and gave the order to attack.
