515 Yamamoto's clever plan to play airborne counter-osmosis
I have to say that Yamamoto, an old devil, has quite strong insight.
The three regiments led by Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei, known as the Iron Triangle in the northwest of Shanxi Province, secretly hid troop transportation channels among themselves in the mountainous areas, so as to facilitate timely reinforcements and joint operations with each other.
This is also the reason why the new 1st Regiment and the 2nd Regiment were able to reinforce the New Regiment in time when the Japanese Army launched many attacks on the Independent Regiment, and even united with the Independent Regiment to ambush the Japanese army in turn.
Yamamoto was the first devil officer to analyze the existence of this hidden transportation channel.
For this reason, Yamamoto even believed that if he wanted to destroy either the Independent Regiment or the New 1st Regiment or the 2nd Regiment alone, it was necessary to take the lead in cutting off the secret transportation channel between the three regiments of the Iron Triangle.
Only by isolating the three regiments can the triangular defense system of the Iron Triangle be completely broken.
In order to achieve this goal, he judged that the three regiments of the Iron Triangle must have hidden secret and convenient transportation channels between the mountains, and ordered some troops to try to infiltrate this mountainous area and find this secret transportation channel.
It's just that little has been achieved.
The plainclothes team sent out by Yamamoto, as well as some traitors, have been circling around the periphery of the mountains.
It was very difficult to enter the mountainous area guarded by the Independent Regiment, the New 1st Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment.
According to the news sent back by the devil's reconnaissance force, the passes around the main entrance to the mountains were strictly guarded by the Eighth Route Army, and the Eighth Route even built some pillbox fortifications.
Choosing a direction to get into that mountainous area without a purpose, it is easy to get lost, and it is unlikely that you will find that secret transportation route.
Therefore, Yamamoto's plan to send troops to raid the independent regiment through this secret transportation channel has never succeeded.
However, because of the special protection of the mountainous area by the Independent Regiment, the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment, Yamamoto is more and more certain that this convenient passage must exist.
"If we can successfully find this passage this time, it is very likely that we will successfully behead the headquarters of the Independent Regiment and the cadres of the Eighth Route Army who rushed to the Independent Regiment for exchange and study, taking advantage of the advance team's sneak attack on Niukou Village as a frontal cover."
Deputy Captain Takemoto naturally knew about the existence of this secret transportation channel, and he was worried: "It's just that, Dazuo, this secret passage that must exist must be strictly controlled by the troops of the Eighth Route Army, and it is not easy for us to avoid their vigilance and sneak into it." ”
Yamamoto nodded, a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth, he stretched out his right index finger, pointed to the air, and said:
"It's naturally difficult to penetrate from the ground in a conventional way, but if you can launch a combat team directly from the air, these problems will be solved."
Takemoto was shocked and said, "Dazuo, do you mean that in this beheading operation, the special team will carry out a small-scale parachute operation?" ”
It's no wonder that Takemoto was a little surprised.
To be honest, the Japanese army does have the Airborne Forces.
It's just that the Japanese airborne troops started and developed late, and their combat effectiveness has not been formed much.
Speaking of the development of the Japanese Airborne Forces, in the early thirties, the upsurge of the Airborne Forces from Moscow soon swept the Japanese army as well.
The Japanese army began to keep up with the trend of the times, formed its own airborne troops, and conducted training for airborne troops.
It is a pity that the Japanese troops basically have a blank slate in terms of their knowledge and training of the airborne troops.
There is no experience to talk about.
The so-called training of the Airborne Forces can only be described as bad.
The officers responsible for training the Airborne Forces did not know how to train the Airborne Forces at all.
The so-called training method was originally for the soldiers to jump down from a height.
It's kind of a bit of a figment of imagination.
Do you really think that if you jump higher, you will become an airborne soldier?
This set of unreliable training methods was actually obtained by the red deer of the Japanese army and navy through the public training photos in American and Soviet newspapers.
But these photos are actually photos of other people's airborne troops putting on a show, where can they really be used as a reference for airborne training?
That's it, one dares to think, the other dares to do.
The little devil with the spirit of pragmatism began the training of the Airborne Forces in full swing.
And so, I trained until the 40s.
The so-called airborne troops of the Japanese army have not been trained to make a name for themselves.
They have not really carried out so-called parachute operations, and they may not even be proficient in the use of parachutes.
When they got on the transport plane, and even got airsick and vomited on the way, when they were allowed to parachute from a height of several hundred meters, the so-called courage honed by jumping up and down from the high platform in the past had long been lost to the country of Jawa.
As a result, the entire airborne forces have no chance of being elite at all, and the greatest role of the so-called existence of the Japanese airborne troops may be to enrich the number of arms of the Japanese army.
The Japanese are strict in their work, and they look down on those who mess around the most, and some people ridicule them:
"The best pilots are on the land offensive, the best soldiers go to the navy, and the rest are in the paratroopers."
This is the current situation of the so-called Airborne Forces of the Japanese army until now.
Naturally, Yamamoto was also aware of the current situation of the Airborne Forces of the Imperial Army.
But since he chose to carry out parachute operations, he naturally has his reasons. Gu Rong
"At present, there are nearly 30 original elite members of the special forces team, and this group of members has initially undergone quite rigorous airborne training, and I have conducted many successful airborne combat exercises with them."
"They are completely different from the garbage airborne troops in the current service of the Empire, and they will definitely be able to do the airborne mission this time."
Takemoto nodded, he understood Yamamoto's determination, and after thinking about it, Takemoto said, "Hi, Your Excellency Osa, I understand what you mean." ”
"It's just that this airborne operation is also extremely difficult for our special forces, and there is a saying in China that you can't put your eggs in one basket."
Speaking of this, his words were awe-inspiring, "In order to continue to eradicate the inheritance of special operations, and in order to carry forward the special operations in the imperial forces, Your Excellency Dazuo, please be sure to hand over to me the combat mission of this airborne landing and decapitation operation." ”
Yamamoto shook his head and said slowly:
"This time it can be said that it is a complete battle, I can only rest assured if I personally lead the team, and if I don't destroy the independent regiment with my own hands, how can I be willing?"
"Takemoto-kun, there is a sentence you said well, the special team must leave a fire, after I lead the team to set off, the others will be handed over to you."
"If this decapitation operation is successful, even if I can't lead the team back, with this record as a foreshadowing, you can also use the special operations theorist as a theorist to carry forward the special operations tactics in the imperial forces."
"If you fail, the last hope of the special forces is also pinned on you, please be sure to do your best, and you must not let the special operation be buried."
Takemoto said: "I am willing to go with Dazuo, as for this important task, you should leave it to others!" ”
Seeing Takemoto's resolute gaze, Yamamoto hesitated for a moment and nodded: "That's it, then let's go together!" ”
"Hey!" Takemoto replied loudly.
……
……
Niukou Village.
The headquarters of the independent regiment is stationed.
Tomorrow morning is the time for the pre-planned internal exchange meeting of the cadres of the Eighth Route Army, of course, this is just a trap, in order to lure that old devil of Yamamoto into being fooled.
"Yamamoto, this old devil is cunning and shrewd, we have to do a full set of plays. Tomorrow morning, each regiment will send a team to our independent regiment pretending to be cadres for internal exchange and study. ”
"If Yamamoto wants to take the opportunity to carry out the decapitation operation, he will definitely not miss this opportunity, we must be prepared to take the lead."
At the military meeting held, Kong Jie said.
Several battalion commanders who participated in the meeting opened their mouths one after another to express their views.
Shen Quan, the commander of the second battalion, took the lead and said: "Regiment commander, a few days ago, the Japanese army was used by us to use Ping'an County, and they suffered a big loss in encircling the point to send reinforcements.
In addition, the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain has not yet ended, and even if the Japanese army gets the news, it is very unlikely that they will attack our independent regiment on a large scale.
If Yamamoto, an old devil, wants to carry out a sneak attack, he will most likely use his small combat unit to carry out some kind of decapitation operation. ”
"We also have a special combat team, and the most important thing to do is to maintain absolute concealment before the final battle breaks out, and as soon as the guns go out, this mission will basically fail."
"Therefore, if Yamamoto wants to take advantage of our internal exchange meeting to carry out a surprise attack, with their actual situation, it is absolutely impossible to penetrate from the village and our frontal defense line."
"If I were that old devil from Yamamoto, it would be most likely to go to the mountainous area between Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang."
Battalion commander Wang Leihu retorted: "Old Shen, if you take this route, when the devil Ishii United came to sweep it, Yamamoto, the old devil, walked through, but he was defeated miserably.
In addition, if you take this route, it will be difficult to avoid the defense line we set up in the area of the village entrance.
Do you think Yamamoto would have chosen to raid from this direction? ”
Shen Quan said: "Why not? Soldiers don't get tired of cheating? We don't think so, but other little devils just do it? ”
Wang Leihu said: "So what is the purpose of choosing this road? It is obviously impossible for this road to succeed in the raid. ”
The other battalion commanders are mixed up with each other, and if you think about it carefully, what the second battalion commander and the battalion commander said seems to make sense.
In the end, Kong Jie said: "What the first battalion commander and the second battalion commander said is actually good. ”
"Regardless of whether Yamamoto, an old devil, chooses to raid from the mountainous areas of the middle line between Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang, this mountainous area is one of the key points of our defense."
"If the Japanese army wants to decapitate our independent regiment, the first thing to do is to infiltrate, otherwise everything will not be discussed."
"And if the Japanese army wants to infiltrate, what we have to do is naturally to carry out anti-infiltration defensive operations."
Speaking of this, Kong Jie arranged: "One of the key points of this anti-infiltration defense operation is in this mountainous guerrilla area sandwiched between Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang. ”
"The anti-infiltration defense we want to do is actually very simple, first, add trick mines, bullet mines, and mines, which are easy to expose the Japanese infiltration troops, but it should be noted that these means should be placed in the central area of the guerrilla mountain area as much as possible, otherwise the devils will be exposed in advance, and they will withdraw after turning around, and it will not be easy for us to eliminate this devil."
"In addition, it is necessary to communicate in advance and notify the surrounding villagers that they must not be injured by mistake."
"Second, adopt more mobile defensive tactics, whether it is the patrol team responsible for defense in the village, or the guerrilla team that is mobile and reconnoitring at any time in this guerrilla mountainous area, keep an eye on the surrounding movements at any time, and must not easily let the devil troops infiltrate."
"Third, we should increase the number and distribution of secret outposts in various important passes, and we must not let go of the guerrilla mountainous areas between Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang, and use immovable secret outposts to reconnoiter the infiltration units of the Japanese movement, and at any time serve as the eyes of our troops to detect the infiltrated units of the Japanese army." ……
