vs 264 Fight when you say you want to fight

No matter how difficult the situation is, these people in the independent regiment have encountered it, and they don't know how many difficult and dangerous battles they have fought in the past few years, but this time, after resting for two years, the situation they encountered in the first battle still made them frown involuntarily and feel very difficult.

Lin Xiufeng looked at the map and muttered: "The terrain here in Chisong Mountain is much steeper than when it was in Xiaomin Mountain, however, there is a relatively big trouble that in addition to the official road, although the mountains in other places are considered difficult and dangerous, they can still be crossed." Although the main force of the devils will definitely not be able to advance to Cili until they have captured the official road, no one knows if the devils will send a force over the mountains to go around our backs when the battle is fierce. Once we are attacked by the enemy, even if our independent regiment can fight again, I am afraid the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

Supplementary battalion commander Liu Taiping has had a lot of temper since he had several ups and downs in the Independent Regiment, but he still has a straightforward temperament, and now he can't help but say: "The surname Zhou wants to make meritorious service and wants to go crazy, right?" He used to be our old commander, did he do that? ”

Liu Wenfeng shouted: "Stone, why don't you go to the military seat, this battle will continue like this, and it will be held until it gets dark tomorrow, not to mention whether we can withstand it, the loss will definitely be difficult for us to bear." ”

Shi Shi was silent in the face of everyone's words, and his expression seemed to infect everyone on the side, making them involuntarily close their mouths and be quiet. It was only then that the stone said slowly: "Don't say that the bigger the official, the more he will spare his life, in fact, people are the same, and after a long time of comfort, there will be no longer the fighting spirit of the past." ”

Everyone couldn't help but be a little unconvinced when they heard this, especially Liu Wenfeng, who was about to say something when he opened his mouth, but was stopped by a stone waving his hand. Just listen to the stone continues: "What kind of troops are we? The independent regiment directly under the military headquarters rushed to Cili to fight this time on the order of the military department, and was assigned to the command of the 51st Division of the Zhou Division. In other words, in this battle, our regiment was directly commanded by Zhou Shizuo. The result? Zhou Shizuo's order has just come down, you can't do it like this, you can't do it like that, how can you fight like this? Do you want to go to war? It's all like you, how can Chief Zhou still command the troops? ”

Listening to the rebuke in the stone's mouth and looking at his sharp eyes, everyone involuntarily lowered their heads, looking a little speechless. Although they felt that the stone seemed to be exaggerated, with the prestige of the stone and the trust between them, they could not afford to refute it.

Seeing that everyone lowered their heads and remained silent, Shi Shi immediately said: "Since Chief Zhou's order has been conveyed, then, no matter what difficulties there are, we must strictly implement them." I don't want to hear anyone talk of retreating until it gets dark tomorrow, or else there will be severe punishment. ”

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, but they knew that the stone would not change when it came out like a mountain, so naturally they would not say anything more. But this kind of battle is really a bit inexplicable, relying on the 51st Division and the two independent regiments to face the attack of the three divisions of the devil, the situation in this battle is really not good, even if you can block the devil, how many brothers will you have to lose in this battle?

After thinking about it, Wu Zihuai couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Tuanzao, although the terrain here in Chisong Mountain is acceptable, but our troops are not enough, even if the whole regiment is put into the defense of the position, the effect is probably limited, if we only rely on us to build field fortifications to fight the devils, I am afraid the loss will be great." If you want to hold on until it gets dark tomorrow, it's best to delay the devil's attack from somewhere else. ”

Everyone on the side couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Chief of Staff, what kind of delay method is there in this situation?" Is it to take the initiative to attack head-on, or to use the strong attack of artillery to contain it? ”

Stone said to the side: "Night attack tonight!" ”

Everyone was shocked and couldn't help but gasp, although they had absolute trust in Captain Shi, but in this case, it would be difficult to launch a night attack. Lin Xiufeng on the side asked directly: "Tuanzuo, the terrain here is not conducive to night action, then again, the devil only needs to spend very little effort to protect the safety of the army in this kind of terrain, we want to break the balance, not only to see if the attack can be unexpected, but also to see if the devil's defense line is flawed, this kind of battle is not easy to fight." ”

Shi Shi said confidently: "In these years, what other battles are there to fight?" Which time we are not at an absolute disadvantage and disadvantage. The more difficult the battle, the more we must find a way to change the unfavorable conditions for our use, so that we can defeat the enemy on the battlefield. ”

……

Night came before you knew it, and time passed in this tense confrontation from the time the independent regiment rushed to Akamatsu Mountain to set up defenses and then repel the Japanese attack.

For the officers and men of the 104th Wing of the Japanese Army, this day was definitely a nightmarish existence, the successive attacks of the three squadrons not only failed to break through the enemy positions in front of them, but also suffered heavy losses, and their victories in the previous days were pale and powerless in today's battle. In fact, it is not that they have not lost battles, nor have they faced difficult difficulties. But a battle like today's was indeed the first time they had encountered it, and the enemy forces in front of them were too strong and difficult to deal with, not to mention the strength of the enemy's firepower, but the ferocity and accurate marksmanship when facing the enemy in battle was something they had never encountered before.

Like their troops, what they are most proud of is the ferocity of hand-to-hand bloody battles, that is, the kind of bloody nature that can kill enemy soldiers once they get close to them, however, the advantages they are proud of do not play any role in the face of the enemy in front of them. Even under the first look, they were defeated and returned, unable to resist the enemy's offensive at all. This situation is chilling to think about, and it also makes them feel at a loss, not knowing how to deal with the enemy army in front of them next.

"Is there any news from the wing headquarters?" Tanaka Tatsu Mitetsu asked with a blue face as he looked at the communications officer in the corner of the tent.

"Your Excellency, the wing headquarters asks us to stay on guard, wait for reinforcements from friendly forces, and refrain from attacking again for the time being." When the communications officer heard this, he couldn't help but respond.

Tanaka Tatsuzo snorted coldly and said, "What's the matter, didn't the news of our heavy losses here be reported?" Now that the casualties of the brigade are extremely serious, and the number of troops is seriously insufficient, why did the second and third brigades not be sent to replace us in this situation? If the enemy launches a night attack, will it be difficult for us to stop the enemy with our strength at the moment? ”

The deputy captain on the side groaned for a while and couldn't help but say, "Tanaka-kun, do the people of China dare to take the initiative to attack our position?" This seems to be a rare occurrence! ”

Tatsuzo Tanaka seems to have an excellent relationship with this deputy, otherwise, anyone who dares to speak like this in his anger will probably be reprimanded by him, but for his question, he sighed and said: "Akita-kun, the Shina army in front of us is completely different from the ones we have encountered before. The ability of this enemy unit to fight in close quarters is very prominent, and even above our brigade, such an enemy army must be the elite of the enemy's elite, and in a battle with such an enemy, we must not be careless and slack in the slightest, otherwise, we will suffer a big loss. Moreover, the troops who are good at hand-to-hand combat must like to fight surprise battles and night raids, and with the current situation of our brigade, once they are attacked at night, if they fail to hold their positions, it is very easy to have accidents. We have already suffered a defeat during the day, and if we are defeated by the enemy again at night, what will we be able to do? ”

"Your Excellency, what shall we do next?" Akita Yue also asked with some concern at this time.

Tanaka Tatsuzo shook his head and said: "The reinforcements don't know when they will arrive, this battle can only rely on ourselves, immediately pass the order, all departments do not rest tonight, rush to build fortifications overnight, no matter what, we must hold out until dawn tomorrow." After dawn, not only will the orders of the wing headquarters be delivered, but the division headquarters may also make moves. The commanders certainly did not want to see the troops blocked outside the city of Cili and not allowed to enter. ”

"Hi," Akita immediately replied loudly.

At this moment, in vain there was a burst of gunfire in the distant night, and even though the gunfire was loud, and the sound of explosions was very lively. This kind of sound was heard in the ears of Tanaka Tatsuzo and Akita Yue, but it made their hearts rise to their throats, and the two glanced at each other, and saw a look of panic in each other's eyes. Or Tatsuzo Tanaka is strong enough, after all, he is the person who is the captain of the brigade, and there are many times when he faces danger, and his mental endurance is far beyond that of ordinary people. It was only in a blink of an eye that he came back to his senses, and he shouted in vain: "Order all units to strictly guard their respective positions, strictly prohibit anyone to move around at will, violators of the order are shot on the spot, immediately contact the second squadron, and see what is happening at the bottom." ”

During the day, the 2nd Squadron was ordered to attack the Akamatsu Mountain, but their attack did not play any role at all, and they were defeated by the soldiers of the Independent Regiment guarding the mountain.

In this way, the strength of the second squadron is actually the most well-preserved in the entire brigade, which has to be said to be a great irony. Naturally, guarding in front of the brigade and acting as the first line barrier has naturally become the task of the second squadron.
