Chapter 672: Do what you can
"Three platoon leader, what's going on?"
"Battleman, you are here. There are more than 50 Japanese soldiers, probably the organization of a small team. There are no heavy weapons, only two light machine guns and grenade launchers. As soon as we met, we knocked down seven or eight of them, and we are now confronting us." The third platoon leader slipped down from the haystack.
"Just a few people are not enough for us to get stuck in our teeth." Liu Hongda, the first battalion commander, said, "Tell brothers, let the Japanese come in, we cannot expose our weaknesses and solve them in the village!"
"I understand!" The third platoon leader agreed.
"go!"
One battalion could not deal with the Japanese and a small team. Liu Hongda was not worthy of eating, and he was not worthy of eating water.
"A row is long!"
"arrive!"
"Take a row and go around from the north of the village. Don't let a Japanese devil go. When they enter the village, we will close the door and beat the dog!" The first battalion commander Liu Hongda showed a sinister smile.
Just a little Japanese, and he is so rampant, I really don’t know that Prince Ma took three eyes.
"Yaxi, enter the village!" Lieutenant Akiyama is the supreme commander of this vanguard team. Of course, he is not the direct commander of this squad.
He was also a squadron leader, but this time he led the vanguard to investigate and capture Juancheng very importantly, so he was asked to lead the team himself and serve as the commander.
The middle-aged man on the opposite side seemed not very powerful. He just didn't take any precautions and suffered a certain amount of casualties. Their gunshots quickly became sparse.
The squadron's ammunition supply is quite scarce. Usually a soldier can only fire a small amount of bullets in a battle, and often fails in battle because there is no ammunition.
The middle-aged man squad that ambushed them obviously did not carry too much ammunition. After a while of fire, they had no bullets.
In other teams, soldiers carry no more bullets. The more have a base, half a base, and even less. The less. Japanese infantry usually carry combat bullets for two days, with as many as two hundred bullets and 150 rounds, at least three or four times that.
Therefore, Akiyama is not wrong based on this judgment, but he did not know that the troops he encountered were not half of them, but Chinese troops called "devils" by the Japanese army.
The first-line combat troops of the Honorary First Division have the same amount of ammunition carrying as the Japanese army.
More than forty Japanese troops rushed into the village.
The village was empty. Although Lieutenant Akiyama was arrogant, he was not a fool. He immediately noticed something was wrong: "Retreat, exit!"
But it was too late to retreat at this time, and the pitch-black barrels stretched out.
"beat!"
"Dada..." Angry bullets shot out at the Japanese army.
With such close-range shooting and almost twice the number of Japanese soldiers, this Japanese vanguard was instantly beaten and suffered heavy casualties. If they did not rush into the village, they might not have been able to do so.
Second Lieutenant Akiyama was shot in his left leg and sat on the ground and hugged his thigh tightly. The pain was so painful that he didn't even have the strength to pull out his gun to commit suicide.
It can be seen that he is an officer and is valuable. The first battalion commander Liu Hongda ordered that his life be left for the time being. Perhaps arresting a Japanese officer can help him learn some of the situation of the Japanese army from his mouth.
The battle comes quickly and ends quickly.
"Battery Commander, there are still a few Japanese survivors, what should I do?"
"Is there any survivor?"
"I understand!" The squad leader who reported understood it, walked over, picked up the bayonet in his hand, and ended the Japanese soldiers who were wailing but not dead.
This scared Lieutenant Qiushan, who was almost exhausted by holding his left leg, was so painful that he was scared. In his eyes, the Chinese soldiers were almost the same, but these soldiers were a little different.
These are all veterans. From their killing actions and eyes, they can be seen that such a thing is definitely not the first to do, and they must be the elite among them.
Type 38 rifle, Czech light machine gun, grenade launcher...
Their equipment is no worse than the army soldiers of the Empire.
What kind of troops are they? As far as he knows, the Chinese defenders in Juancheng have absolutely no such good equipment. Moreover, the equipment and backs on them look so familiar?
Isn't this the standard equipment of the Imperial Army?
For a moment, Qiushan's mind became messy.
"Battery Commander, after cleaning the battlefield, he killed forty-three Japanese soldiers, plus eight people who were originally killed, a total of fifty-one, one prisoner, thirty-seven rifles, two light machine guns, two grenade launchers, and a total of about four thousand light machine guns, and a back gear..."
"Okay, hurry up and dig a hole to bury the Japanese's body. If you seize it, you will first replenish ourselves. Go back and report to the regiment headquarters!" Liu Hongda ordered.
"yes!"
"Battle, the Japanese troops are coming up. There is at least one squadron, including heavy machine guns and mortars, motorcycles and cavalry. It is expected to receive the enemy in five minutes!" A platoon leader sent someone back to report.
"Prepare for the fight!"
"Master, I've arrived in Jiaxiang County in front of me. Should I take a break and have a meal before leaving?" Long Yingqin asked.
"No, let's go around the county and go directly to Yuncheng. Should we be able to arrive tonight?" Leng Feng rejected Long Yingqin's suggestion. Entering the city would inevitably attract attention. He didn't want to do this, and the Japanese plainclothes and spies were everywhere, so it would be better to go around quietly.
"The road is still smooth at the moment. At this speed, it is not a big problem to arrive in Yuncheng before dark."
"Okay, have lunch in the car, everything is simple, it's important to hurry up!"
"clear!"
"The 37th Brigade 1 Regiment and One Battalion, a Japanese vanguard team near Xingzhuang, and captured a Japanese lieutenant. The interrogation learned that all the Japanese 14th Division were dispatched and equipped with a field heavy artillery brigade, machine gun squadron, armored vehicle 1 squadron, anti-aircraft artillery troops and engineer boat bridge troops, etc.."
"The Advisory Office estimated that there were as many as 30,000 Japanese troops participating in the war. In addition, Doihara mobilized a large number of trucks, mules and horses from North China, and the number was unknown."
Quick interspersion, maneuverability, Kenji Doihara's goal is not to occupy a certain city or region. His purpose is to take advantage of the geographical advantages of the eastern Henan plain, quickly intersperse and completely disrupt the deployment of the squadron.
The Japanese army's mobility and combat capabilities far exceed that, once chaos occurs, it will definitely be an unimaginable disaster. The Japanese army uses its mechanized and rapid maneuvering ability to attack everywhere, paralyzing the commander and even falling into chaos. In this way, it can not only help the 10th Division's Seya Detachment besieged, but also capture the chestnut from the fire and seize more strategic points.
Such a powerful Japanese army may not be able to withstand even if they pull all the honorary first division. This battle is difficult to fight, and now he can only draw one brigade to go there. Jining and Yanzhou will also have to bear the huge pressure from Japanese reinforcements.
The Japanese army has been increasing its troops against China. No matter how big the cloth of the Honorary Division is, how many storms can it stand?
This matter is still asked Jiang Jiang and the senior executives in Wuhan to consider it, to concentrate on doing their own things, and do their best.
You have to relax your mindset and don’t be eager for quick success or instant benefits.
It is really a lasting process to completely defeat the Japanese invaders. Although the Japanese army suffered losses in local battles, they still maintained an overwhelming advantage. This is not something that one or two people, one or two capable troops can reverse the general trend.
Leng Feng also felt that he was impatient in some aspects and had to calm down now. The colleagues in the Fifth War Zone criticized him for being high-profile and being too ambitious. At least this is also a warning to him.
In terms of equipment and mobility, the Honorary Division is still far behind against the Japanese mechanized troops. This is a local defense operation, with some advantages that make up for the gap in strength.
If the Honorary First Division really fights head-on with an elite Japanese division, Leng Feng will definitely not be sure.
Kenji Doihara cannot be allowed to cross the Yellow River, otherwise no one will be able to stop his military attack now.
"Send a telegram to the Chairman's Office, suggesting whether to establish a frontier command in eastern Henan to unify the troops in eastern Henan in the First War Zone, strictly guard against the Japanese troops on the other side of the Yellow River, and strictly prevent the Japanese army from smuggling in the upstream!" Leng Feng was very worried. If the Japanese army crossed the river at Dongkou, they would definitely find a breakthrough in the upstream. It was either Lengfeng's defense zone. Even if he had the ability, he could not stop it. He could only remind Jiang.
"yes!"
"Slowly, I'd better send this telegram to Chief Li of the Fifth War Zone and ask him to suggest to the Chairman's Office." Leng Feng thought for a moment. If he had made a suggestion directly, he would be a little arrogant. At this time, he would be more low-key. If it was suggested by Li Delin, Lao Jiang might be able to listen.
Li Delin received Leng Feng's telegram and was silent for a long time without saying anything. He could read Leng Feng's concerns, and he also agreed with Leng Feng's judgment.
Once Doihara is frustrated in Dongkou, he will inevitably go somewhere else to cross the river. If he is not prepared, he will suffer a great loss.
Although these are all speculations, unless Leng Feng deliberately lets the Doihara Division come over, this is equivalent to taking all the pressure on himself.
Not only will this fail, it will cause more criticism.
He was obviously capable of keeping the Japanese army from the other side of the river, but he deliberately put the Japanese army in, which made the people of western Shandong suffer. He was simply punished for his unrealistic ambitions.
But if the Tukaiyuan Division is rejected on the opposite bank of the Yellow River in Dongkou, the Tukaiyuan Division will be nothing more than the Yellow River. There are too many ferries to cross the river for hundreds of miles.
Kenji Doihara could have completely avoided the Honorary First Division and passed by from other places.
Li Delin fully understood Leng Feng's good intentions and also read his decision from this suggestion. The most important thing at the moment is the victory or defeat of the Taierzhuang Battle and the safety of hundreds of thousands of robes in the Fifth War Zone. If the Doihara Division heads south from Dongkou, it will inevitably pose a huge threat to the Fifth War Zone.
As the deputy chief of staff of the Fifth War Zone and the chief of staff of the Shandong Corps, Leng Feng was commanding the front-line enemy. From his position, he could only organize Doihara to cross the river from Dongkou.
This is also the real purpose of his telegram to give himself this advice. Leng Feng's decision was first focused on life and death in the fifth zone, and the rest were left aside first. He could not watch the possible tragic consequences in the future without saying anything. With a slight slight word, he could only use this method. I hope he could suggest to Lao Jiang to prevent it first.
Young man is old!
Li Delin was amazed in his heart. How could Leng Feng have such a delicate and meticulous thought that he could think so thoughtfully without leaving any traces.
This is really a genius!
In fact, he didn't know that Leng Feng had just experienced some mental struggles before he suddenly understood what he wanted to do next.
Choice is very important. Leng Feng is to make another choice. If you want to grab your eyebrows and beards, the final result is that you can catch nothing.
