Chapter 60: The location of the ambush

The reason why He Jiaming is not optimistic is very simple, that is, there are too many recruits in the new regiment, and even if the first batch of recruits has been trained for several months, the bullets fired are limited.

It sounds good to say condescendingly, but what about marksmanship?

Don't look at the Type 38 rifle, its accuracy is not at all, especially after the start of the battle, the two sides are firing at each other.

So He Jiaming said: "I'm not very optimistic about here!" ”

"Huh?" Li Yunlong was stunned, "Why?" ”

"It's still a matter of marksmanship!" He Jiaming said: "Even if the first round of shelling or shooting achieved good results, but what about after that? ”

"Do you remember what you said about the ambush in Qiheng Village?"

"What was the outcome of the second ambush?"

"This ......" Li Yunlong of course remembered that the second ambush was not taken down, and in the end he could only withdraw from the battle.

At that time, Li Yunlong was still the commander of the third battalion of the 772nd Regiment, and he was very unwilling, but in the process of shooting, a large number of soldiers were killed and wounded, and if they continued to fight, they would even be eaten by the other party.

He Jiaming said again: "Although we can occupy the commanding heights, after the front firepower is fierce, the other side will soon find cover, and even disperse to shoot at us." ”

"Don't talk about recruits, the veterans of Qiheng Village can't take advantage of them at the beginning!"

"This kind of terrain advantage is only advantageous at the beginning, and if you want to completely eliminate a Japanese army brigade and capture all their equipment, you can't do it with the current strength of our regiment!"

"Although the sheepshead ridge is not high, but from the top of the road, this distance is more than 200 meters!"

"At this shooting distance, it is difficult for a veteran to guarantee a target hit rate of seventy percent with a Type 38 rifle, and what is the tactical literacy of the little devil?"

"Once you find cover, it's up to God to hit it!"

"We have a lot of mortars and grenadiers, but are we going to let go?"

Li Yunlong also frowned, he really couldn't let go of the fight, and he didn't have to fight if he didn't have a loss.

The enemy's marching column would not be too short, and they used trucks and motorcycles to get to Baihe County quickly when they left Lucheng.

And this mechanized march has a longer queue, and can be used as a bunker, a new regiment of fire, but it can't completely break the trucks into pieces.

Even if it burns after the explosion, it is impossible to burn the steel down, and it can still exist as a cover!

At most, it is to restrict the enemy's use of Type 92 infantry guns, and the little devils also have grenadiers, and they hit more accurately than them.

Of course, mortars have an advantage, but what about ammunition?

Now it adds up to more than 300 rounds, can you fight openly?

He Jiaming said again: "And our speed can't be slow, otherwise there will be people in Baihe County and Lucheng to support, and the devil's brigade has a radio station." ”

"They will surely ask for help!"

"And we occupy the commanding heights and charge downward, this distance and route are not good, we will inevitably face the enemy's fire head-on, and this casualty will be large!"

Li Yunlong nodded and asked, "So, what position do you think we should choose for ambush?" ”

He Jiaming looked at the map and said, "I still have to go and see the specifics, but I think it should be about the same here!" ”

"Huh?" Li Yunlong saw that there was no special terrain here, "Do you know here?" ”

"The woods!" He Jiaming nodded.

"The woods?" Li Yunlong was stunned, "Are you sure?" ”

"Sure, the woods are the best ambush spots, it's been 5 months now, the vegetation is starting to grow, and the woods are not a good ambush spot, the enemy won't pay too much attention."

"And we have mental calculations or not, we can deploy here in advance, dig some single foxholes, do a good job of camouflage, and be very close to the location of the main road!"

"And deploy in advance, bury cluster grenades on the main road, and pull up the tripwire!"

"Deploy the firing direction and width of various weapons in advance to form a cross-fire network, and at the beginning, we can concentrate the firepower on one side for an assault!"

"Push the little devils to the other side, of course, they may not be able to react, but we only need a very short time!"

"The fire from the other side can deal a devastating blow to them, and because the ambush distance is very short, we can charge quickly, not entangled with the enemy, and solve the battle with pistols and bayonets!"

"Commander, you know, the little devil's melee firepower is very weak!"

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up instantly, "The shell gun of your reconnaissance platoon?" ”

"Aren't there some of the main forces of the regiment? And then there's the Southern Fourteen! He Jiaming reminded: "We have more pistols than the other side, and the firepower and ammunition are greater. ”

"So, even if there are still remnants of the enemy, how many people will be left?"

Li Yunlong propped his hands on the table, looked at the map and thought for a while, "In this way, our heavy machine guns and mortars, and even grenadiers will not be used!" ”

"Yes, the heavy firepower is difficult to control, after all, our fighters' skills are still a little worse, but this also saves heavy firepower!" He Jiaming's method is more efficient, but of course more dangerous.

"Although my method is a little more dangerous, the little devil will definitely not think that we will ambush them in the woods!"

"The little devils are still arrogant, they can't imagine that someone dares to ambush a brigade of them, and the terrain chosen is not at all in line with common sense!"

"Okay, that's it, I'll set off with the reconnaissance company early tomorrow morning, go to find the terrain in advance, I will contact the local comrades to conduct reconnaissance, and after choosing the position, I will immediately go with the main force of the regiment!"

"We are prepared in advance, no matter when this brigade of little devils returns to Lucheng, we will eat him!"

"Yes!" He Jiaming then said: "When the time comes, the veterans will be in front and the recruits will be in the back!" ”

"Well, your reminder is very right, when the time comes, it will be distributed in squads and platoons, the key is concealment, and at the same time, there is also the time to do it, and you and I will be responsible for one side at that time!"

"Understood!"

……

Early the next morning, after breakfast, He Jiaming directly took the reconnaissance company and set off again, this time directly to Yangtou Ridge, although the location of the ambush was not here, but the location chosen by He Jiaming was to the west of Yangtou Ridge.

After this forest, it is the Sheep's Head Ridge, which is the western edge of the Sheep's Head Ridge.

When the little devil arrives here, he must be on guard against Sheepshead Ridge, not against this forest, although the vegetation has begun to flourish, but the forest is not deep.

The density of the trees is not large, and it will not appear dim, and the little devils who march during the day will definitely not scout carefully, let alone go deep into the woods, after all, they are mechanized marches.
