Section 187 Counterattack on Gao'an 83
Section 187 Counterattack on Gao'an 83
Wu Zihuai listened to Deputy Division Commander Yu's question, and couldn't help but have a headache, how could he answer this kind of question? Can't answer at all? Can you still say that our head is a freak, and the thoughts in his head are different from others? Or is our regimental commander a genius in warfare, and has the ability to be difficult for ordinary people?
Just when Wu Zihuai had a headache and didn't know how to speak, Yu Chengwan on the side seemed to feel his embarrassment, and couldn't help but say: "Forget it, Chief of Staff Wu, don't think about it too much." You have come all the way to help, but I want you to say these inconvenient things, it is difficult for some strong people, just now I was just feeling the repetition of the battle situation, casually, don't go to your heart. ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" Wu Zihuai couldn't help but hurriedly say when he heard this, and then looked at this Deputy Division Yu quite unexpectedly, in his impression, people who can be such a big official as the deputy division commander are all arrogant, strange tempers and difficult to serve the lord, I didn't expect this Deputy Division Commander Yu to admit his mistake as an insignificant subordinate officer, which made him a little flattered. This alone made Wu Zihuai have a good impression of him, but he really didn't have any expertise in fighting, otherwise, just this attitude of Deputy Division Commander Yu towards him would be enough for him to repay him wholeheartedly.
After Yu Chengwan chatted casually, the depression in his chest seemed to be alleviated a little, and when he calmed down and went to observe the battlefield ahead, his state of mind had calmed down a lot. In fact, to be honest, just like Wu Zihuai said before, if you only talk about the number of enemies killed, although the battle has just begun, but it has achieved remarkable results, in such a very short period of time, the Japanese army's crowded trucks have become live targets that cannot be moved, especially the first few * that were detonated and the shells that directly hit the truck, almost harvested the lives of two trucks of Japanese soldiers, and killed a squad of devils in a blink of an eye, which is not something that can be done casually.
At this moment, even if they withdraw their troops directly, it can already be regarded as a great victory! But this person, I'm afraid of comparison, isn't there a saying that people are more popular than people? In particular, Wu Zihuai's previous mention of the 302nd Regiment's outstanding achievements is still in his ears, how can his dignified deputy commander of the 57th Division be compared to a small commander of the 51st Division? Besides, Wu Zihuai and other brothers of the 51st Division were in front of him, and he would withdraw after killing so many dozens of devils, so he would naturally have a dull face.
"Tell Zhou Yizhong, pull the reserve team up to implement interspersed division, the devil's artillery and baggage are behind, and eat these devils for me first." Yu Chengwan looked at the fierce firefight scene in front of him, and couldn't help but shout an order to the staff officer on the side.
Although they had the initiative in the current scene, the enemy had too many troops to attack the big city this time, far beyond their expectations. A full-fledged infantry wing has nearly 1,000 more people than a regiment, not to mention that the Japanese army's weaponry far exceeds that of the Nationalist army. The only thing that can be relied on is the terrible formation of the Japanese army and the extremely disadvantageous position it is in, if it were not for the ferocious machine gun fire of the Japanese army and the fact that the national army soldiers have no way to take them for a while, I am afraid that they would have broken through long ago and carried out division and encirclement.
This is also in the case of this kind of ambush, in exchange for the usual, this kind of battle with a comparison of forces, Yu Chengwan did not hesitate to order a retreat.
At this moment, since there are friendly troops here, although Yu Chengwan is not the kind of person who is hungry for profit, he also does not want to weaken the name of the 57th Division and lose the face of the division, taking advantage of the fact that the initiative on the battlefield is still under control, he wants to maximize the results, even if he can't eat the devil in front of him in one bite, he will also hit this Japanese army hard.
In fact, from the beginning of the battle to the present, it was just a cup of tea, and a series of attacks of the national army caused great losses to the Japanese army, and Yu Chengwan also knew the advantages and disadvantages of both the enemy and us, and set such an attack strategy.
Although the overall combat strength of the 106th Division was very average among the Japanese army, its equipment and firepower had obvious advantages in the face of the national army. Especially in the current situation, the Japanese army was suddenly attacked and surrounded on all sides, which aroused the violent mood of the Japanese army and reminded them of the bloody battle in Wanjialing. If they could cut off the Japanese army at the beginning of the war, it would naturally break the confidence of the Japanese army in one fell swoop and plunge them into complete chaos. Unfortunately, although the attack of the 339th Regiment was fierce, it was not a cavalry unit that struck as thunderously as the 302nd Regiment, and after being intercepted halfway through the attack, even the Japanese army itself was in a terrible condition, but in order to save their lives, in order to get out of here alive, in the case of a glimmer of life, the Japanese army burst out of the most violent counterattack.
Whether it is a human or other animal, when life is threatened, the power that erupts from its body is extremely terrifying, and it can often even exceed the scope of imagination, although the current Japanese army has not yet reached this point, but they are facing huge casualties, regardless of their own losses, just desperately blocking the approach of the enemy.
In their counterattack at the expense of losses, the Nationalist troops were afraid, and the previous fierce momentum weakened in the face of the Japanese fighting to the death. From a psychological point of view, they hold the initiative on the battlefield at the moment and have a choice, in this case, they instinctively escape from death, and are unwilling to fight for both sides in this situation.
Even the commander of the 339th Regiment obeyed the order of Deputy Division Commander Yu to transfer the reserves, but after losing that indomitable momentum, he lost the determination to fight to the death, and in the face of the Japanese army's frantic counterattack, their impact stopped less than fifty paces from the road. Lying in the fields and mountains, they wantonly shot and killed the Japanese soldiers who had no shelter in front of them. The Japanese soldiers, who could only rely on trucks, had a much higher casualty rate than the Nationalist troops because of the limited shelter. However, over time, the situation on the battlefield gradually changed.
The Japanese soldiers on the truck braved the dense bullets and constantly jumped out of the car, under the cover of machine guns, their situation was much better than before, as the Japanese formation opened, the Japanese army's advantage in firepower became more and more obvious. Gradually, the attack of the national soldiers became more difficult, and at such a short distance, the dense machine gun fire of the Japanese army gradually made them unable to raise their heads.
At this time, the Japanese artillery finally adjusted the direction of the shooting, and fired shells mercilessly in the direction of the national soldiers.
The loud sound was accompanied by the flames rising into the sky not far away, forming an astonishing momentum, if the fierce attack of the previous national artillery represented a strong suppression and absolute superiority over the Japanese army. At this moment, the counterattack of the Japanese artillery also shows that after such a short period of adjustment, the Japanese army has come to its senses, although the overall situation has not changed much for the time being, but the fierce artillery bombardment represents that the Japanese army has begun to counterattack.
Yu Chengwan naturally heard the cannon shot, his expression couldn't help but change, and his face became ugly. In order to achieve the maximum lethal effect and to break up the Japanese formation in the shortest possible time, the 339th Regiment also widened the distance between the teams and chose dozens of points as a breakthrough during the initial attack. This method of attack did cause confusion and good lethality of the Japanese army at the beginning, but after the attack was blocked, their weakness was also magnified, and the national troops who opened up the distance did not have an absolute superiority in strength at every point, and in the case of not being able to break through the Japanese defense line, they immediately limited themselves to the Japanese counterattack, only to see the Japanese troops rushing towards them from all directions, with the fire of artillery, the momentum was extremely amazing.
Yu Chengwan just looked at the place in front of him, and he felt the passivity of the entire battle situation, he was also a decisive and brave person, and immediately ordered loudly: "Tell Zhou Yizhong to retreat in the direction of Dacheng immediately." ”
After that, he put down his binoculars and pulled out his pistol from his waist, and glanced at the regimental headquarters company that had been ordered by the commander of the 339th Regiment to protect him and the troops reinforced from Ayutthaya, and he couldn't help shouting: "The purpose of this attack has been achieved, and the soldiers of the 339th Regiment have sacrificed their lives to kill the enemy bravely, which is really a model for our generation." Heroes should be honored and rewarded, and the Horse Leather Shroud is inevitable for soldiers, but not today, brethren, go up with me, and go back to receive cheers with the heroes who slain the enemy. ”
"Kill the devil!" Whether it is the soldiers of the 339th Regiment or the regimental headquarters of the 302nd Regiment, hearing Yu Chengwan's impassioned roar, they can't help but boil their blood and follow the call sign one by one, especially the soldiers of the 302nd Regiment, after so many battles, what kind of battles have you not seen? When I was in the 302nd Regiment, that is, I had a little fun yesterday, but I didn't expect to have another chance to perform today, and it was in front of friendly troops, which made them even more high-spirited, and they wished they could kill to the front line now.
However, Wu Zihuai looked at Yu Chengwan's appearance, and couldn't help but be very worried, this is a dignified deputy division commander, such a big official actually wants to go to the front line, what kind of accident will happen, he can't imagine what the consequences will be! But where can he speak now? Not to mention that this is dominated by friendly troops of the 57th Division, even the current high-spirited appearance of the officers and soldiers makes him dare not say anything to demoralize him.
Yu Chengwan didn't notice Wu Zihuai's expression, seeing that the morale of the soldiers behind him was mobilized, he couldn't help but sweep away the previous haze expression, and became murderous.
[Hehe, I scared you yesterday! The outline of this book is written until the end of the Battle of Changde, and the rest of the books with the theme of the National Army's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression will not be written! 】
