Chapter 239 The main force(2/2)
If only three sweeping detachments were transferred, it might be possible to repeat the mistakes of many misdeeds, Ogasawara and Sasaki Detachment! It was so dangerous!
But Takuya Suwa turned his head and said to Takaichi Sakamoto: "Sakamoto, what else do you have to say?"
Now, Sakamoto Takaichi was finally completely shaken and said reluctantly: "The Eighth Route Army's offensive is so fierce, it shows that it is undoubtedly the main force of the Eighth Route Army. It seems that my previous judgment is indeed wrong."
Speaking of this, Takaichi Sakamoto paused to Yoshio Shinozuka again and said, "Commander, I apologize to you for my ignorance and offense."
"never mind."
Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand and said generously: "It's just a small matter."
Although Yoshino Shinozuka talked about something small, he was still very happy inside. Sakamoto was so stubborn that he was impressed by him in the end?
At this time, another correspondent soldier came out.
The report said: "Hissar Commander, Tsuda Detachment urgently."
Yoshio Shinozuka didn't want to read the telegram, so he waved his hand and said, "Ignore."
"Hayi!" The communications soldier paused his head and immediately launched a telegram to recite, "The 1st Army Command and the 2nd Guard Division Headquarters: The Eighth Route Army's offensive was unexpectedly fierce. It took less than half an hour to break through the outer line of our detachment. The second line of defense was also in danger, so I requested emergency support from the 2nd Guard Division."
"Haga!" Yoshio Shinozuka's face collapsed immediately.
"It seems that life in southern Jin is too comfortable, and they have all brought these idiots from the 237th Infantry Regiment."
"In less than half an hour, the Eighth Route Army broke through the outer defense line, and they were actually on the verge of asking for help from the 2nd Guard Division. Why didn't they die?"
Yoshio Shinozuka was really angry.
Because the performance of Tsuda Detachment is really bad.
You should know that the Tsuda Detachment has six infantry brigades and six mountain artillery squadrons.
Although the Eighth Route Army has more than 8 regiments and its number is greater than that of the Tsuda Detachment, the artillery firepower of the Tsuda Detachment crushed the Eighth Route Army's small-caliber curved artillery, which should not be like this.
At this time, Takaichi Sakamoto instead advised: "Commander, it is not surprising that the Tsuda Detachment has such a clumsy performance, right?"
"After all, they were facing the Chinese Central Army in the battlefield in southern Shanxi before."
"What kind of people are the Central Army of China? Isn't it clear to you, the Commander, and you all?"
"When the Imperial Army first entered Shanxi, the Central Army of China still had some combat effectiveness. However, in the past two years, senior generals of the Central Army of China have been busy filling their own pockets. Intermediate officers are only concerned about deducting military pay. In order to make a living, the soldiers of the lower level even secretly took out their weapons and ammunition to sell them. How could they have any combat effectiveness?"
"How can the Tsuda Detachment fights such an army on the battlefield in southern Jin Dynasty? How can the combat effectiveness not decrease?"
"What's more, there are still a large number of imperial army and detective teams in the southern Jin Dynasty. These armed forces were originally incorporated local gangsters and hooligans. These guys were not good at fighting, but they were proficient in eating, drinking, gamblers, but they were proficient in everything. Tsuda Detachment, no, the imperial soldiers of the three divisions of the entire southern Jin Dynasty were corrupted by these guys, how could they not reduce their combat effectiveness?"
He paused and said, "But, the Commander, don't worry too much."
"Oh?" Shinozuka Yoshio said lightly and asked, "What does this mean?"
Takaichi Sakamoto smiled and said, "The Imperial Army in the southern Jin Dynasty War Zone was corrupted by the Imperial Army and the Detective Team. Not only did they learn the ability to eat, drink, bet and smoke, but they were afraid they also learned the ability to complain."
"So don't think they're calling fiercely now, it's actually not a big problem."
"I dare not say anything else, it is absolutely no problem to hold on for at least two hours."
"Well, Sakamoto's words are not unreasonable." Shinozuka Yoshio nodded slightly and then said, "However, we still cannot take risks easily. Let the 2nd Division of the Guards launch an attack to support the Tsuda Detachment."
...
Daxia Bay, the command of the 2nd Guard Division.
The snow was falling so hard. Maeda Tadashi, Tomoya Yuta and several other assistants stood outside the tent for a while, and the hats and cloaks were already covered with snowflakes.
However, Tadashi Maeda was unaware of it and just held up a telescope to observe the front.
Unfortunately, it was dim ahead and there was nothing in sight.
Amid the footsteps, a communications officer came over quickly with a folder and reported: "The division commander, Tsuda Detachment requested emergency support, and the 1st Army Command also requested support."
"I understand." Tadashi Maeda waved his hand.
After sending the communication staff, Tadashi Maeda said to Yuta Toshiya again: "I originally wanted to wait a few more minutes, but now even Shinozuka-kun has sent a telegram, which shows that the Tsuda Detachment is not in a good situation. Forget it, let's attack in advance. Tuya-kun, send a signal and order Noda Brigade to prepare for attack. The 2nd Corps of the Kouwei Field Artillery and the 10th Corps of the Independent Field Heavy Artillery began to prepare for artillery fire at Mizuyayamaguchi."
"Hayi." Yuta Tooya paused slightly when he heard this.
Immediately, I raised the signal gun and fired a red signal flare.
With the rise of the red signal flare, dazzling streams suddenly burst into the direction of the entrance of Daxiawan Village, and then the streams roared across the snow-flying night sky and fell towards the Shuiyao Mountain Pass.
The next moment, Chaishan and Mishan at Shuiyao Mountain Pass were trapped in a sea of fire.
...
"Everyone wears a gas mask!"
Wang Ye ran up the 7th-shaped Hanbi Highway, while loudly reminding the soldiers of the new 2nd regiment who were retreating to Hanbi Highway to wear gas masks.
Although the Japanese did not use poison gas bombs in the previous battles.
But Wang Ye knew that this was definitely not because the Japanese were kind-hearted, but because they were not prepared enough, because the storage and use of poison gas bombs were much more complicated than ordinary grenades, and they could not be used casually.
However, the artillery units of the 2nd Guards Division definitely carried poison gas bombs.
Therefore, this time the Japanese will most likely use poison gas bombs to attack.
Wang Ye's order was quickly conveyed, and the members of the Wolf Warrior Squadron and the soldiers of the New 2nd Regiment put on gas masks.
Because he was wearing a mask, when Kong Jie walked to him, Wang Ye didn't notice it. It was not until Kong Jie called him several times that Wang Ye finally recognized Kong Jie.
"Captain Kong, what's wrong?"
"Oh, if it weren't for Xiao Wang, we would have suffered a big loss this time."
Speaking of this, Kong Jie pointed to Xiashui Yaoshankou and saw that the Mishan position of Chaishan, which was stationed by the two main battalions of the New 2nd Regiment, had been blown into a sea of fire.
Wang Ye said: "What's there?"
Kong Jie said: "The 2nd Guards Division has begun to launch an attack. Can Lao Li and Lao Ding come back? At this time, let the Independent Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment retreat to Laishui Yaoshan. The two Japanese should not doubt it anymore, right?"
"Basically, there will be no doubts." Wang Ye said this and turned back to Wei Xi and said, "Xinie, go and notify the regiment commander and the regiment commander Ding immediately, you can come back."
Wei Xilai ran away immediately.
The artillery of the 2nd Guards Division prepared for artillery fire at the Shuiyaoshankou position for a quarter of an hour.
About a quarter of an hour later, the Japanese artillery fire began to extend towards Shuiyao Mountain, and rows of shells began to hit the circular flat ground with a diameter of more than 500 meters.
Landmines have been buried under the flat ground.
From time to time, landmines were hit by shells, causing death.
There will definitely be wires connecting landmines that will be blown up.
But the problem is not big, because all the mines are connected to independent wires and are connected to the wall-mounted road before being aggregated onto a total wire.
Doing this is nothing more than spending more wires.
The headquarters left a lot of wires, and they are not short of wires at all.
The artillery fire extended to the front cliff, and the smoke from the explosion quickly spread into the Hangbi Highway.
Chapter completed!
