Section 111 Counteroffensive Gao'an VI

Everyone couldn't help but look at the beard with anticipation, this lord is much more powerful than the average company commander, as the leader of the horse bandits, not only must be intellectual, but also ruthless, otherwise so many brothers, all of them are brave and ruthless, who will obey you? And the beard can make bandits like Zhao Yidao obey their words, and their skills and skills are beyond doubt.

Beard did not have any eagerness and panic in this situation, he said slowly: "Nowadays, retreat is the most undesirable, so that once the battle situation is unfavorable, the head of this black cauldron will be determined, but the strong attack on the auspicious charm, we are afraid that this little bit of people is not enough, although we have not been sure about the strength of the devil's defense, but this kind of throat artery has at least one brigade, otherwise, the devil will not be so wantonly in the surrounding area to arrange sentries, hehe, with a regiment to attack the devil a brigade, this kind of battle needless to say also knows what the result is." ”

"Company Commander Li, if you have any ideas, just say it, now time is precious, since we can't retreat, we can't fight down, is it possible that we will stick here and wait for help? But don't forget, it's not far from Nanchang, and the devil's reinforcements will come faster than us. Wu Zihuai asked with some puzzlement.

Hu Ziyu was not shocking, and said very simply: "We will fight the big city." ”

"Big City?" Wu Zihuai almost couldn't believe it, and everyone on the side was really startled by Hu Zi's words, they couldn't beat the auspicious charm view, and attacked the deeper city, isn't this looking for death?

Lin Xiufeng, who was attached to the regiment, also smiled bitterly: "Company Commander Li, you're not joking, are you?" This is not the time for jokes! Dacheng is more than 20 miles away from Xiangfuguan, even if the devils do not have telephone contact, they will definitely be able to transmit information to each other through telegrams, it is estimated that we did not wait for us to arrive halfway, Dacheng already knew the news that we were here, although the number of devils in Dacheng is definitely less than that of Xiangfuguan, but keep it for a day and a half, there must be no problem, when the time comes, the devils from all directions will come to reinforce, and it will be too late to withdraw. ”

The beard smiled, and was about to open his mouth to say something, when the stone had already preemptively said, "Just hit the big city." ”

"Tuanza, you have to think twice, the big city is more than thirty miles away from here, if something happens, there is no room for maneuver." Wu Zihuai said anxiously.

Shi nodded and responded: "Brother Wu, don't worry, since I want to fight Dacheng, I naturally have my thoughts, the brothers have traveled more than 100 miles to come, but not to send them to death, since they want to fight, they have to beat the devils, and let them know that when they see the battle flag of our 302nd regiment in the future, they will hide away for me." ”

The stone's domineering words suddenly silenced everyone, they couldn't help but think of the stone's past glorious achievements, the kind of momentum that has never been defeated in a hundred battles, the kind of self-confidence formed by countless victories, enough to destroy all enemies, since the stone said that it can fight, what else do they hesitate? Since the stone says it can be won, then this battle can be won.

"Okay, since Tuanza has confidence, we will fight Dacheng!" Lin Xiufeng immediately responded.

Wu Zihuai also immediately said: "Since Tuanzuo has made a decision, let's give an order, as long as Tuanzuo dares to fight, we will definitely be able to win." ”

At the same time that the officers of the 302nd Regiment were discussing the next offensive direction and battle plan, the Japanese army of Xiangfuguan had received the news that the national army had crossed the Jinjiang River and killed them from the direction of their belly and back, which made the Japanese command in a big mess, but fortunately, they learned that the enemy was still some distance away from them, and they still had time to deal with it, which finally made them feel a lot more relieved, and even secretly rejoiced that they had stationed a large number of sentries along the Jinjiang River.

It is no wonder that the Japanese army on the front line of Xiangfuguan has such a reaction, because this army has been repeatedly attacked since entering this strange land, although it has not been in the battle for a long time, but the losses are not as great as the 106th Division, which was almost completely annihilated, but it is not much different. In Wanjialing last year, in fact, not only the 106th Division suffered heavy losses, but the 101st Division suffered heavy losses when covering the actions of the 106th Division, and nearly 3,000 people of the 101st Wing under its jurisdiction were surrounded and annihilated by the 159th Division and the Reserve Division led by Ye Zhao, commander of the 28th Army and 66th Army, at the pass and Huangtangpu line, while the 101st Wing and the 101st Engineer Wing, which were left behind in the Japanese army in Niumaojian and Boyushan, were ambushed by Major General Hua Zhenzhong of the 16th O Division of the 66th Army. The 103rd Wing and its large, medium and small squadrons completely disappeared and were completely annihilated.

After that, although the units of the 101st Division were re-replenished like the 106th Division, their vitality has not recovered, and now the 149th Infantry Wing under the 101st Brigade is stationed on the front line of Xiangfuguan. The losses of this wing were not very large during the Battle of Dean, but then the 101st Wing and other units were rebuilt, and more than half of the officers and veterans were transferred from them, and the new recruits who were replenished basically had no combat experience, and their combat effectiveness was naturally much weaker.

The wing commander of the 149th Wing was Tsuda Tatsusen, and when he received the front line of the defense of Xiangfuguan, he had a long talk with Yoshio Sonoda of the Capital Wing, and it was this meeting that changed Tsuda Tatsusen's mind, and made him thoroughly realize how difficult the battle in the Gao'an area was, especially when he learned that the enemy in front of them was the 74th Army, the main force of the 106th Division, which was encircling and annihilating the 106th Division in Wanjialing, he felt a headache. However, Yoshio Sonoda's next words made him feel even more incredible, because the capital wing suffered such heavy losses in Gao'an this time, and it was only attacked by part of the 74th Army's troops, while the Kagoshima wing was even worse, they lost several games in a row in Gao'an, and the infantry wing of three or four thousand people was almost completely wiped out by an infantry regiment of the enemy, which was completely unimaginable before.

Tsuda Tatsusen naturally knew that Yoshio Sonoda would not lie to him, this kind of thing that is an unforgettable shame for them, it is very rare to be able to say it, the reason why they will tell him, I am afraid that the main reason is because of their sympathy, only those of them who have suffered setbacks, only those who have suffered setbacks, know what the consequences are after losing the battle, the kind of humiliation that can never hold their heads up in front of others, so that they can't wait to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor at that time.

This is also an important reason why he did not dare to have the slightest carelessness after taking over the Xiangfuguan defense line, and used heavy troops to closely monitor the south bank of the Jinjiang River, he has already learned from the past, he doesn't want to make another mistake of the capital unit, once he is raided, he is really not sure that he can block the enemy, so the safest way is naturally to fight steadily, send more scouts to strengthen the fortifications and expand the scope of defense, once there is an emergency, can buy them enough time, as long as they can drag the reinforcements around to come, His task was also largely accomplished.

Tsuda Tatsusen is very self-aware, he doesn't want to solve all the problems with his own wing, he knows that his ability is limited, and he also knows the combat effectiveness of his team, not to mention that compared with the elite of the 3rd and 6th divisions, even compared with the capital wing and Kagoshima wing of the 106th division, it is not advantageous, even they were almost wiped out in Gao'an, what is his own person?

His caution saved the lives of him and the entire wing, and also saved the lives of the entire 102nd Brigade, if they let the enemy take the auspicious charm under carelessness, then the 102nd Brigade on the front line of Gao'an would be basically surrounded, even if the 106th Division in the direction of Fengxin can come to reinforce, but the road between Gao'an and Fengxin is very narrow and difficult to travel, even if the 102nd Brigade can withdraw to Fengxin, its losses are unimaginable.

Thinking of this, Tsuda Tatsusen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately in misfortune, the sentry timely transmitted the news that the enemy army appeared on the north bank of the Jinjiang River, which gave them enough time to deal with the upcoming attack, but how many people are there in the enemy army, and whether they can hold the auspicious charm here, but it is really difficult to say, if the enemy crosses the river and the troops are the entire 74th Army, I am afraid that the entire brigade and regiment are transferred, and it may not be able to guarantee safety.

Now their wing is divided into two, one part is guarding Xiangfuguan, one part is guarding Dacheng, in front of them is the 102nd Brigade, and behind them is the division headquarters of Xishan Wanshou Palace and the 101st Wing of the division reserve, which is a force that will never be called unless it is absolutely necessary.

Yesterday, he had already received news from the headquarters of the 102nd Brigade of Gao'an that the enemy troops south of Gao'an had begun to launch a tentative attack on them, and it seemed that it was not far from the enemy's large-scale attack on Gao'an, and a major battle was about to break out. However, the news he just received made him hesitate and guess, could it be that the attack of the enemy army in Gao'an was a feint? In order to divert their attention, so that this suddenly appeared force could regain a large area of land south of the Xiushui River in one fell swoop. If this is the case, then it is a very dangerous thing to put the army of the 102nd Brigade on the Gao'an line, the enemy can contain the army of the Gao'an defense line with only a small number of troops, and the enemy's main force can strike at their weak defense line, and the initiative in this battle is completely in the hands of the enemy.

But what if they are the containment here, and the real battlefield is in Gao'an?

Thinking of this, Tsuda Chenshen couldn't help but be a little compromised, this is a big battle related to the life and death of tens of thousands of people, where can he dare to have the slightest carelessness? The best way to do this is to wait until the strength of the enemy forces is clear, at the very least, until they confirm how many enemy troops have crossed the river.

However, for the sake of insurance, he reported the information here to the division headquarters and brigade headquarters in detail, and it is naturally better to leave this kind of headache to the people above to worry about.
