Chapter 54: Arrogance

"Commander, this time in the battle against the little devil's 46th Wing, our artillery regiment can play, right?" Yu Fei, the commander of the artillery regiment, looked forward to it. When the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info eliminated the 112th Wing of the Japanese Army before, they were not able to get a chance, and this time they can't let it go.

At present, the artillery regiment of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army can be described as strong and strong. There are not only three artillery battalions armed with Type 91 105-mm field howitzers, but also an artillery battalion armed with Type 96 150-mm field howitzers. A total of 54 105-mm field howitzers and 12 150-mm howitzers. Such a strong artillery is already stronger than the artillery of a division of the Japanese army. Not to mention a wing to deal with the little devils. Even against a strengthened wing, it's just as much a knife to kill.

However, this time, of course, Qin Shou would not let the artillery regiment go silent again.

Qin Shou knew that after the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army eliminated the 112th Wing and the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army one after another, what awaited them would be a crazy counterattack by the Japanese army. Several divisions of the Japanese army in Burma will definitely send heavy troops to encircle and suppress them. At that time, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will face a tough battle. If the artillery regiment can be tested in actual combat and their combat effectiveness can be further enhanced in this battle, it will be of great help to the next major war.

"Don't worry, this time, the artillery regiment will definitely participate in the battle. And, you will be the main force. Those howitzers of yours, open up to me, bomb those little devils, and kill them into scum! Qin Shou said proudly.

The Japanese army stored a large number of shells in the arsenal of Myitkyina, enough for the artillery regiment to squander for a long time. Once the Japanese stormed Myitkyina, the only way to do that was to abandon the shells would have to be if the troops needed to be moved. What's more, if the United States assists, a large number of weapons and equipment will be replaced with American-made ones. Ammunition and shells will also be replaced with American-made ones. These shells are also not universal. Rather than this, it is better to shoot them all out and let the little devils die under their own shells.

"Yes, Commander. With your words, I am relieved. Yu Fei said happily.

"Brothers, this time against the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army, we still have to eliminate them cleanly. The battlefield was chosen outside the city of Myitkyina, waiting for them to come to the door. The 1st and 3rd regiments, which were responsible for the frontal battlefield. Artillery regiments were deployed behind the 1st and 3rd regiments.

The 4th regiment, the 5th regiment, were deployed on the left flank. Ensure that the Japanese could not break through from the left flank. The 6th and 7th regiments, which served as reserves. After the battle starts, the 2nd Regiment will find a way to cross the Irrawaddy River and cut off the back path of the little devils to ensure that they cannot escape! ”

Qin Shou began to deploy for the battle.

"Commander, what about the right wing? Don't you need troops on the right flank? "Wang Chengdong, the commander of the 6th regiment, is obviously a little dissatisfied with the reserve last night.

"Ha, the right wing, the right wing is the Irrawaddy River. If the little devil wants to jump into the river, of course I won't stop it. Now the Irrawaddy River has begun to rise. If they jump into the river, there is only a dead end. I hope they'll all jump into the river and drown, so we can save some ammunition. Qin Shou smiled.

Only then did Wang Chengdong realize that the right flank was the Irrawaddy River, and there was no need for garrison troops at all, so he nodded depressedly and didn't say anything more.

"Brothers, don't say anything else. The battle the day after tomorrow must be won! Qin Shou finally said.

"Yes, Captain." Everyone answered with confidence.

In their opinion, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army now has an absolute advantage. If there is no way to win in this way, it will be unreasonable.

On June 10, the 1st and 3rd Regiments of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army began to build a defensive line two kilometers from Myitkyina. Artillery regiments, on the other hand, build artillery positions behind them.

The 4th and 5th Regiments of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Regiment will secretly go out of the city this night and go to the dense forest on the left flank of the battlefield to stand by, and lay in ambush in the dense forest. If the Japanese army planned to break through from this direction after suffering heavy losses, they would fight out of the dense forest and block the Japanese army's plan to break through.

As for the 2nd Regiment, it was still hidden on the east bank of the Irrawaddy River, and they needed to cross the river in a place where it was difficult for the Japanese to detect.

The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, in order to completely annihilate the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army, can be said to have exhausted all its strength. All 7 infantry regiments and an artillery regiment will be engaged in this battle.

Although, the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army is the elite unit of the Japanese army. However, the strength of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was six times that of theirs. Coupled with the superiority of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in terms of weapons and firepower, the gap between the actual combat effectiveness of the two sides is no longer so big.

If you count the anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, it is completely ready in this battle. Then, the chances of victory for the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army are even greater.

And all this, the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army, did not know at all, they were still rushing to Myitkyina according to the predetermined plan.

Of course, the Japanese army, from Tochigi Kodaisa, to the soldiers below, still believed that they had won this battle. The elite Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire, defeating some rabble, there is no suspense at all.

On the night of June 10, the Japanese camped less than twenty kilometers from Myitkyina.

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, we are less than twenty kilometers from Myitkyina. The search force focused on the area ahead and found no ambushes for the China. However, one of our vanguard units discovered that the Chinese had begun to build fortifications outside Myitkyina. Yamane Goro Shaoza reported.

"Build a defensive line outside Myitkyina? Are the people of China preparing to fight a positional war with us? A smile of disdain appeared at the corner of Tochigi's mouth.

The weakness of the Chinese* army has long been the consensus of all Japanese officers. Whether it was a field battle or a positional battle, the Japanese army was able to easily defeat the Chinese* army, which was several times its size. Even the expeditionary force, known as the American Mechanic, was easily defeated by them on the battlefield in Burma.

What's more, what they have to face now is nothing more than a force composed of the rout of the expeditionary force. Even this army, relying on its cleverness, took the arsenal of Myitkyina. relied on intrigue and trickery to encircle and annihilate the 112th Wing of the Japanese Army. However, Tochigi still believes that the final victory must belong to him. He will use the blood of countless Chinese to wash away his shame.

"Let the warriors of the Imperial Army have a good rest. Tomorrow, there will be a war. The brave warriors of the Imperial Army will show those damned Shina people what kind of troops are the real elite troops. If the imperial army wants to pinch them to death, it is more difficult than pinching an ant to death! ”

Tochigi's self-confidence, or arrogance, is more appropriate.
