"Company commander, how are we going to fight!?"

The new company has been waiting for a long time.

Lao Qi and the veteran are the first platoon commander and the second platoon leader of the newly formed company, with three squads and 13 people in each squad.

The second stunned son is the communicator of the new company, Xiao Liu is the squad leader of a platoon, and Zheng Dayong is a machine gunner in a platoon.

Xia Yuan's first thought was to lead a group into the position.

At this time.

The battle on the front line continued, sporadic gunshots kept ringing out, crackling, and veterans often teased that the gunshots of this little Japanese devil were like fried beans.

Xia Yuan stayed at the division headquarters for more than an hour, it was already dusk, the sun was about to set, they were still in the rear, and they had not yet reached the front line.

"We are going to enter the main offensive position of the Japanese army and fight against the main force of the Japanese army."

"What's the matter, just rely on our one company?" Zheng Dayong was slightly startled.

"Not even one." Xiaoliu added.

"Company commander, let's go fight the main force of the Japanese devils, will we?" Zheng Dayong was a little worried.

"What are you talking about?" The veteran said: "The company commander also said when he came, we are ghosts, we have killed so many little Japanese devils, how can the head of the family not know." ”

"Will you not be able to beat it?" Xia Yuan smiled and said: "Although it is the main force of the Japanese army, their offensive method is very special, it is to participate in the battle with small units, the scale is mostly a small team, if it is dispersed, it is about the strength of four detachments, and we are not much worse than them, don't forget, small units fight, but our strength." ”

When it came to the battle of small troops, everyone immediately came with confidence.

"Not to mention anything else, if the little Japanese devils dare to fight with us in a small force, then they will have to be killed. Don't forget, the results of our previous nights, the results of any night, in the whole army, they are all one and the same, who can compare to us! ”

Lao Qi's voice is more heroic, he is the second tallest person in this company, except for Xia Yuan, not only tall, but also very rough.

"The platoon commander is right, we are no worse than the Japanese devils, I forgot how to beat the Japanese devils! That little devil is not our opponent at all, and in one night, we have to eliminate fifty or sixty Japanese devils. ”

"The little Japanese devils are well armed and equipped, and we are not bad now."

"We still have two Type 92 heavy machine guns!"

"Useful, you're a machine gunner, what are you talking about that frustration."

Everyone was full of confidence, and when they talked about the battles they had fought at night in the past few days, they shouted one by one, following the previous commanders, and felt that they were not fighting, but being beaten. It wasn't until he followed Xia Yuan that he understood what a war was, not to mention anything else, just the captured weapons and equipment were enough to equip a full battalion.

Zheng Dayong knew that he was wrong, and sneered: "I said it wrong, I killed six Japanese devils myself!" ”

"Isn't that right?"

"Fight with the main force of the little devils, and do the same to them!"

A few days ago, everyone's spirit was still sluggish, and the continuous defeats made many people lose their confidence in fighting, especially the Japanese devils in all aspects, they were better than them, and the central army went to the front line, and they had to be chased and beaten by the Japanese devils, even if the weapons and equipment were similar, but the tactics were not as good as the Japanese devils, and when they should be beaten, they were still beaten.

They have been beaten and have lost the confidence to fight.

But since they followed Xia Yuan to start attacking the Japanese devils at night, they realized that this was how the battle was fought.

In the following battles, Xia Yuan led them to attack one Japanese devil position after another at night, broke through the Japanese defense line, eliminated the Japanese troops on the position, and captured a large number of weapons and equipment, canned food, and gold and silver jewelry.

The most critical point is that they followed the right person, Xia Yuan did not hesitate to seize the things, gold and silver jewelry were distributed to them, and the captured ocean did not say that he had swallowed it privately, in fact, even if Xia Yuan had swallowed it privately, everyone would not say anything.

They have seen those commanders who have no real material, and they also embezzle their money, and when they get to the battlefield, they are like a coward, the cat is behind, and the combat orders issued are even more messy, there is no doubt that such a commander brought the troops to the battlefield, which is basically no different from the cannon fodder troops, and the Japanese army attacked a few times, and then beat the position.

At least, Xia Yuan's combat ability is obvious to all, and they can hit the Japanese devil's position, and they completely rely on Xia Yuan, if there is no Xia Yuan, let alone enter it, it is a huge problem whether they can touch the forward position of the Japanese devils and ensure that they are not discovered by the Japanese devils.

Therefore, if Xia Yuanru wanted to swallow the ocean, everyone would never say anything, that was what their company commander deserved.

Moreover, Xia Yuan did not spare the so-called money, the gold and silver jewelry were distributed to everyone, and the excess rifles and bullets would be sold on the black market.

Who doesn't love an approachable, capable, and responsible officer.

Xia Yuan then told them about the detailed combat plan, how to win with a small force: "Three people are a combat group, the division of labor is clear, fire support, assault, these three positions are particularly important, and the grouping is divided according to the grouping of the previous night attack on the Japanese position." ”

When attacking the Japanese position at night, Xia Yuan assigned the soldiers in the company to dozens of combat groups in groups of three, but he did not describe the function of each position in detail, and simply told them that one person served as fire cover, and two people were responsible for attacking fortifications and assaults.

However, there were a lot of people who had left before, and many combat groups were not enough personnel, so Xia Yuan redistributed the groups with insufficient numbers.

"After the group is divided, don't determine their respective positions, and then I'll talk about positioning everyone's position to see which one they fit into."

"Those who serve as fire cover and fire support must first have good marksmanship, good throwing ability, and effective hitting targets, and this kind of person acts as fire cover."

"The two people who serve as assaults, first of all, the most important point, is that the cooperation must be tacit, everyone is a veteran, I believe they all understand a truth, the so-called advance and retreat, two people assault, the most taboo joint assault, must be a one-person assault, one person cover, fire support is staring at an important position, once the enemy appears, then quickly shoot to remind the person who serves as an assault."

This set of tactics, to put it bluntly, is the three-three system tactics, and the three-three system tactics are undoubtedly the pinnacle of army tactics.

Even the most advanced US military, after learning about the tactics of the three-three system, began to train soldiers in the tactics of the three-three system, which shows that the US military is very receptive to the tactics of the three-three system.

The tactics of the three-three system, even in modern society, are still irreplaceable.

If there is one more, it is too much, and it is bloated. If there is one less, it is too little, and their respective positions cannot be assigned in place.

The three of them happened to be just right.

Many of the members of the combat team are still there, and after the night attack, everyone already has a basic direction for their respective positioning, so after Xia Yuan told the combat plans for each position, everyone has a number in their hearts.

After a little discussion among the battle groups, everyone divided their responsibilities according to their own characteristics.

Xia Yuan, Dayong, and Xiao Liusan are a combat group, and they are also the strongest combat group in the entire company, with very strong attacking ability and blocking ability.

After all, Xia Yuan is here, he can shoulder multiple responsibilities alone, Dayong and Xiaoliu's combat ability is relatively poor, and his performance in all aspects is relatively mediocre, especially Xiaoliu, his combat experience is richer than Dayong, but his combat ability is mediocre, Dahao is still a machine gunner, and his ability to control machine guns is very good, and the Japanese army's 92 style can also have an excellent performance in his hands.

However, now that they are on the front line, their combat group is going to be disassembled.

Machine guns can also be used well in alleys, but only if someone can watch the Japanese grenadiers.

Therefore, Xia Yuan's combat group eventually fell apart, considering Xiao Liu's combat ability, he classified Xiao Liu, Da Yong and Er Stunned into the machine gun group, and transferred the veteran and Lao Qi to his own group and combined with himself, so a more powerful combat team was born.

The veterans have a lot of combat experience and good shooting ability, which is suitable for fire support.

Originally, the veteran wanted Xia Yuan to take on the role of fire support, after all, Xia Yuan's shooting ability and throwing ability, he had seen it with his own eyes, but in fact, what the veteran didn't know was that Xia Yuan's hand-to-hand combat was the most powerful, and the street battle was limited by the complex terrain, and there was not much fire support that could be carried out, and the encounters were the most.

If you attack the fortification, Xia Yuan must be the role of fire support, when he attacked at night, he had already witnessed it, and the fire support was completely unspeakable, a gun suppressed the Japanese army, and the machine gun bunker could not sound for a long time.

"I don't know why, I followed you, the pressure was not so great, and when I grew up with the company, the pressure on my body suddenly increased." Lao Qi sat on the ground, carefully wiping his gun, and chatting with the veteran.

"What are you worried about, I'm under a lot of pressure, you've seen our company commander's marksmanship, you say, if I don't fight well, what's the matter." The veteran felt that he was suitable to be an assaulter, and rushed up with a gun to fight the Japanese devils, and it was indeed not his forte to shoot from behind.

"Have you forgotten that the company commander picked out a dozen Japanese soldiers?" Lao Qi said: "This street fight, in the words of the company commander, what kind of face output." ”

"Riding face output?"

"Yes, yes, yes, what do you mean, it's to ride to other people's faces and output, long-range fire support is actually not much necessary, the company commander probably thinks, you are smarter than us, and you can stare at the point in the back." Lao Qi touched his bald head with a layer of stubble, and said, "We are suitable for fighting with the Japanese devils with bayonets." ”

Lao Qi was quite right, he secretly thought that Xia Yuan's ability to fight bayonets that night made all the soldiers who participated in the night attack feel very frightened, they had never seen anyone who could face more than a dozen Japanese devils, fighting bayonets without changing their faces, and finally killed all these Japanese devils.

Since then, Xia Yuan has not asked any questions and has become the object of worship of all the soldiers in their company.

Not only is it good to fight, but it is also a must to fight with bayonets.

The veteran thought that if this was a face-to-face with the Japanese devils, he would not be enough with Lao Qi.

At the critical moment, it depends on their company commander.

After Lao Qi said this, the pressure on the veteran's back is a lot less, besides, it is actually quite good to match with the company commander and fight street battles, if you fight a tough battle and let yourself carry out fire support, it will definitely not work.

In the twilight of the day, the battle on the front line is basically coming to an end, the gunfire has become fragmented, and the sound of artillery shelling is rarely heard.

The effect of the small-scale surprise warfare adopted by the Japanese army would be so significant.

It seems that he underestimated them before.

The sun sets, the night sinks, and the battle is largely over.

That night, the Japanese army brought the 11th Cavalry Wing and the reserve infantry unit under the command of the Shigeto Detachment, entered the west side of Luodian, took over the defense of the 22nd Wing of the Japanese Army in front of the 51st Division, and continued to attack the 51st Division.

The 22nd Wing of the Japanese Army continued to move to the east to reinforce the 44th Wing of the Japanese Army.

On 20 September, the Japanese army planned to concentrate the strength of the four wings of the 11th Division and launch an all-out attack from the southeast of Luodian to the Nationalist army in the east and west of Luodian.

Compared with the strategic rules set by Matsui Ishine at the time of the landing, which was to penetrate directly into Jiading and cut off the rear route of the Nationalist army, the operational plan of the 11th Division was already very negative, and the goal was only to repel the Nationalist troops in the east-west direction and stabilize the front of the 11th Division.

Therefore, after the battle plan was reported to Shanghai to dispatch troops, Matsui Shigen was very unhappy.

However, Matsui Ishine also knew that the Japanese front-line troops suffered heavy casualties, epidemics, and low morale, so he reluctantly accepted the battle plan of the 11th Division.

Before that, the battle plan was that the 3rd Division in the direction of Liu Xing would contain the Nationalist Army head-on, and the 11th Division would advance all the way to the west, penetrate directly into Jiading, and cut off the rear road of the Nationalist Army from the Jiading line.

Now it seems that after the stubborn attack of the Japanese army, all the battle plans can no longer be carried out according to the set goals.

Matsui Ishone, commander-in-chief of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, sighed after learning about the current battle situation of the Japanese army on all fronts.

In Luodian in the north, the four divisions of the Nationalist Army have not yet moved, the Nationalist Army in Liu Xing in the central part has retreated to the second line of defense to fortify, and Shanghai in the south borders the concession, so the scale of the war cannot be expanded, for fear of international involvement.

After thinking about it, Matsui immediately gave a new combat order to the front.

The units continued to carry out the plan according to the established plan, and when reinforcements arrived, they would break through in the center from the center and force the Nationalist forces on the southeast flanks to retreat.

At this time, several divisions of the Japanese army were still at sea and were speeding up to Shanghai to support.

The situation in Shanghai will change dramatically, and the real flesh mill will only begin.

Xia Yuan did not know that the 22nd Wing, the enemy they were facing head-on, had already gone south to support the 44th Wing, and their opponent had also become the 11th Cavalry Wing.
