Chapter 65: Challenge the Absolute Defense Circle (4)

The confusion of the officers and soldiers of the third battalion also exists in the minds of Han Dongsheng and Chen Wudian, who were commanding on the boat. Fortunately, these two young generals with extremely rich practical experience and were not weak in command, and soon reached a consensus: the Japanese wanted to first lure their large troops to ashore, then use one strong point to consume the fierceness of the Chinese army, and finally use strong counterattacks to force the Chinese army to form a group on the beach, thus creating the best fighter jets for their artillery hidden in the gullies and mountains.

This prophetic judgment was soon fulfilled. The Chinese army has just completed the rapid slowdown of the rear land troops, and the troops that have rushed to the beach to spread as much as possible. Several rock formations have been captured there and the third battalion that is heading for the island's hinterland is being searched for the third battalion, which is rushing to the island's hinterland, was attacked by fire. The oncoming rain of locust bullets, the light mortars and grenade launchers that appeared for the first time in today's battle all show that the Japanese army ambushed here will never be any outpost troops.

"Brothers! Retreat!" Under the leadership of Xu Jingren, the Third Battalion, which had long been stretched out the battle formation, quickly turned around under the cover of tanks. The officers and soldiers' deputies were defeated like mountains and down, even made Xu Jingren himself feel: It's not that he pretended too much and made the fake come true! But now, even if the troops are really out of control, he can only bring the troops back to those rock layers as soon as possible.

In fact, Xu Jingren's concerns are not completely unreasonable. At least the third battalion is indeed pretending to be very unprofessional. Moreover, this unprofessionality has indeed aroused the suspicion of the commander of the Japanese Forty-third Infantry Corps (equivalent to the division infantry commander of the Chinese army) Takahashi Shizuji, who was responsible for the defense of the west of the island.

Unfortunately, Major General Takahashi, who was relatively weak in character, chose to surrender in front of his subordinates' desire to seek credit and formulate the authority of the commander of the ground division of the camera assault tactics, and finally issued an attack order. Of course, most of them were the Japanese affiliated naval forces with relatively weak combat power, and could not afford a protracted war or a war of attrition. This was also an important reason that prompted Takahashi to make this decision. (Before the war, the staff officers of the 31st Army Command of the Japanese Army did not expect that the Allies would land on the beach in the complex terrain of the island.)

But Takahashi still kept a hand.

So the brothers of the Third Battalion discovered that the 3200 Japanese soldiers who were chasing them were actually a large scattered flower formation somewhat similar to the ancient Chinese five-point plum blossom formation. This violated the basic tactical principles of concentrated counterattack against scattered areas.

Seeing this scene from the telescope, Han Dongsheng's expression suddenly became solemn. He turned around and sighed to his old partner Chen Wudian in a deep voice: "Please be bother!"

Knowing that Han Dongsheng wanted to use artillery fire to severely damage the Japanese army, Chen Wudan sighed without thinking, and said, "Let the Third Battalion use all his energy to feed, and then hold this Japanese devil first!"

"We can only let Xu Jingren and the others hold on first." Han Dongsheng added: "Xiaoxian. Take a reinforcement battalion. Take a few more tanks. The armored vehicle will get ashore from a little farther away. Quickly plug it in and help the third battalion! You must not let the ducks fly out of the pot!"

"Yes!" Chen Wudian, who had been a master for a few days, could not tell any complaints about being underused. He was just excited to be able to hold his sharpness and face the battle formation in person.

Chen Wudian's short and powerful voice had just finished his speech. He screamed in groups of war defense artillery, infantry artillery, and heavy mortar shells that cut through the sky and dark.

War is certainly a competition of strength and will, but it is also a competition of wisdom! Especially when the trap is set up and the fate is often very tragic when the party who sets up a trap changes from a hunter to a prey without any awareness.

Although the Japanese artillery positions were distributed and deployed, the US warships that were ready for battle still covered with rapid coverage like tsunamis, sending many Japanese artillery and gunners into the air. What's more, even the Japanese officers and soldiers near the artillery positions were affected by the bombing, and the bombing was killed and injured, and howling ghosts cried and wolves. 1-6-k-shuo.com also made the Japanese artillery soldiers focus on transferring positions, so that the Japanese artillery shells landed in the area controlled by the Chinese army became increasingly rare.

As soon as the naval gun was exerted, it was already under the darkly strengthened beachhead fire, and violently bombarded the Japanese sailors who were at a loss for this sudden change.

Due to the loose teams of the Japanese army, the killing effect of this powerful artillery bombardment was only mediocre, but it was of great significance to the Third Battalion.

"Brothers! Good men, real men, even if they die, they will fall forward!" Xu Jingren, who knew that the fighter's opportunity was fleeting, shouted loudly while picking up a Thomson submachine gun and rushing out of the rock formation!

The officers and soldiers of the Third Battalion believed that their battalion commander was not exaggerating or sensationalizing. With the seven hundred brothers who could immediately engage in the battle at the Third Battalion, they wanted to complete the task of smuggling and entangling the Japanese army that was much more than themselves. Although there were several tanks to help, they did not have the awareness of a lifetime of death and did not have any door! But they still kept up with Xu Jingren's pace and shouted Park Xiang's death!

But God, who was unwilling to be lonely, made a comedic joke to the officers and soldiers of the Third Battalion at this moment.

"The Japanese are playing tricks again?" Xu Jingren, who was so excited, fell down only 30 or 40 people at the third battalion that was alternately covered, and rushed to the Japanese sailors in one go and launched a shooting with him. The fact that he was full of incredible.

"Stabilize your steps, carry forward your firepower, and expand your formation! Put me in a semicircle shape!" The next moment, Xu Jingren, who had confirmed that the Japanese firepower was really weak, changed his tactics urgently. Speaking of which, from the east of Han to Xu Jingren, they were all in habitual thinking. They didn't think about how many infantry and heavy weapons the two brigades of the Japanese Army had. The third battalion, which was fully equipped with American-style equipment, had mortars and rocket launchers. What's more, this time the third battalion was still far less equipped than the complete amateur infantry of the regular army!

Xu Jingren didn't want to fight anymore, but the Japanese sailors who were so strong that they wanted to bury themselves in the sand were unable to fight even if they wanted to find someone, and they were all depressed.

Chen Wudian's troops have also been mostly landed. They just need to assemble and start to encircle.

At the same time, the Japanese Western Front Command, which was slightly shaken by the large-caliber naval artillery shells that kept falling around it.

"General Takahashi, my troops are fighting alone, in order to allow my subordinates to die for the empire and the emperor more valuable. I once again plead for you to immediately give me a brigade of combat guidance. I promise the general that I cannot save the trapped troops and the subordinates will never come back alive!" This touching remark from Kawakami Nakasa Kawakami's captain, a sad end, which made the seas present that have never bite each other and the army officers were all moved by the grief of the rabbit and the fox. After all, compared with the current power comparison between the enemy and us, these intermediate officials and officials knew that this small Saipan Island was destined to be their own grave!

"You guys! This attack has been completely failed. As the highest commander of the Western Front, I will take full responsibility!" Damn it! Major General Takahashi, after the defeat, actually wiped out his usual indecisive style and became decisive: "Now, I order to stop the enemy on the whole line and give up some isolated peripheral battles. In addition, each unit must hurry up and adjust its troops and deploy firepower, and prepare to face the next wave of attacks from the Chinese army. As for the two brigades of Kawakami Kwan?" Takahashi couldn't help but pause when he said in an unquestionable tone: "Get a signal flare and leave a broken rear, and the main force will divide it into small stocks to withdraw it themselves!"

As soon as Takahashi said this, the Japanese officers who were secretly happy that they did not have to bear the responsibility for defeat were collectively silent.

Although the opponent's naval guns pose no great threat to a small group of Japanese officers and soldiers, it is self-evident that the two brigades will suffer in order to withdraw from the battlefield without artillery fire and without infantry support.

But since Major General Takahashi insisted on not sending troops to support, instead of throwing these two brigades in the sand and letting the Chinese army erode with artillery fire, tanks, and superior forces, it would be better to cut the hemp with a quick knife as Takahashi said, and he could withdraw some of the troops. Besides, the long process of the former will also be a devastating blow to the morale of the Japanese army on the entire Western Front!

Under the attack of two Chinese troops, the massacre occurred on the empty sand, which lasted only about forty minutes. After more than 600 Japanese soldiers used their lives to buy the last bill for Major General Takahashi's personality weakness, the only thing that echoed over the western part of Saipan was the roar of US warship guns with metal tremolo.

After a while, with Takahashi's generosity, the beach had a huge safety factor.

"What a pity, if we can set up a siege to attack the aid, the harvest will be great." Han Dongsheng, who was standing on a sack filled with gravel, built a simple bunker (when the Japanese army's shelling on the beach before, Cheng Jiaji asked the sacks to prepare these sacks in the war, had a very useful effect.) When he said this, he looked greedy.

Chen Wudian, who just came back from the fire, just stood silently beside Han Dongsheng, and he was also deeply wary of the Japanese's sinister determination, which could be called wolf nature.

Han Dongsheng wanted to say something else, an expedited telegram flying from the San Francisco heavy cruiser knocked out every hint of pride in his heart: "Xiaoxian, the US beach rushing troops in the other two directions were severely damaged by the Japanese army. At present, they can only rely on the support of naval guns to support the beach. In order to avoid our troops advancing alone, let us stop moving forward!"

This time, it was Chen Wudian, who was always a rational officer, who claimed to be himself, and was stunned!
