Chapter 556 Groundhog Tactics(2/2)
Fortunately, the cornfield provided cover for Wang Ye and the members of the Special War Team, but they were not discovered by the Japanese.
Hurry up and rushed forward, Wang Ye finally returned to Yunqi Town in front of the Japanese. At this time, Ge Dazhuang and Li Goudan were already arranging defense deployments.
"Director Wang?"
Seeing Wang Ye, Ge Dazhuang and Li Goudan instantly had a backbone.
Wang Ye asked, "Captain Ge, Brigade Li, how did I ask you two to dig the hole?"
Ge Dazhuang said: "Director Wang, we have dug thousands of such exits outside the town as you ordered. The entrances and exits are already spread within two kilometers of Yunqi Town."
Although the people in Yunqi Town and surrounding villages have been transferred,
However, Ge Dazhuang had nearly 2,000 people in one regiment, and Li Goudan's county brigade also had nearly 400 people. It was stress-free to dig two thousand two-three-meter entrances and exits in one hour.
They just couldn't figure out what to do if they dig so many entrances and exits?
Li Goudan said: "But Director Wang, is it really good to dig so many entrances and exits?"
Ge Dazhuang said with concern: "Yes, the more secret the tunnel entrances, the better. But now, these more than two thousand newly dug tunnel entrances are exposed. Wouldn't our tunnel be discovered by the Japanese?"
Wang Ye smiled and said, "Tell me straight, I don't plan to hide these authentic things anymore."
Li Goudan said: "But if you don't hide the authenticity, how can you use the authenticity to attack the Japanese?"
"You will know when the fight starts." Wang Ye smiled and said, "Captain Ge, Brigade Li, now let your troops enter the tunnel in groups of three."
"After each group enters the tunnel, they can fight freely."
"But there is one entrance and exit, at most one shot is allowed, and one shot is transferred immediately after one shot."
He paused and said, "Don't participate in the battle with heavy machinery, just stay in Yunqi Town to fight street battles."
Because of its large weight, heavy machine guns cannot move quickly through authentic tunnels, so they cannot participate in groundhog combat.
"Yes!" Although Ge Dazhuang and Li Goudan were puzzled, they still resolutely implemented Wang Ye's order.
Soon, more than 2,500 soldiers from a regiment and a county brigade were divided into more than 800 groups, and then they entered the tunnel as dense as a spider-web.
...
Jiro Owada is a commander of the 4th Squadron of the 1st Battalion of the Kagoshima United.
While the artillery group of the Cluster Headquarters and the corps headquarters were preparing for artillery fire in Yunqi Town, Jiro Owada and his comrades in the same squadron were lying quietly under the ridge.
The range of the artillery attack of the mountain cannon group is a two-kilometer radius in front of Yunqi Town.
Because according to the judgment of the Cluster Headquarters and the United Headquarters, there must be Eighth Route Army's fortifications in this area, the target of this shelling was to destroy the fortifications in this area.
Then they Kagoshima United will seize this area.
After capturing this area, attack Yunqi Town.
Jiro Owada leaned sideways and lay quietly under the half-person-high ridge.
This is not the first time that Jiro Owada has participated in a battle, so he is not panicked at all.
Four years ago, when he was in the battle with the 6th Division, he stabbed more than a dozen Chinese soldiers to death with a bayonet. In his memory, the Chinese soldiers were very thin and timid. They didn't even dare to look at their eyes on the battlefield. Sometimes they could scare them with just a loud shout.
Unfortunately, he was injured later and was transferred back to the country to recuperate.
After returning to the team after recovering from injury, he was transferred to the 6th Division's left-behind position.
Then he followed the reserve troops of the 6th Division and was transferred to the 73rd Division, and his rank was promoted to the commander of the sergeant.
In a moment of thought, Jiro Owada thought that the artillery bombardment of the mountain cannon group had ended. With the roar of the captain Sato Ken, more than a thousand Japanese soldiers in the entire brigade jumped up from under the ridge where they were hiding and launched a charge.
The commanders of the Cluster Headquarters and the Fleet Headquarters are very determined, and they are a team-level group charge.
More than a thousand Japanese soldiers opened a two-kilometer-wide straggler line, forming several wavy straggler lines in front and back, and rushed forward, with the spacing between soldiers at least six or seven meters.
The Kagoshima Wing is not a newly formed infantry corps.
In fact, all the grassroots non-commissioned officers of the Kagoshima United are elite veterans like Jiro Owada.
Therefore, the performance of the 1st Battalion of Kagoshima United is completely different from the previous infantry brigade composed of workers.
Jiro Owada rushed forward with his comrades in the 4th Squadron. The comrades in the entire squadron were from the same village as him, and they knew each other, so they were very relieved.
Soon, Owada Jiro rushed into a cornfield.
However, at this time, the entire cornfield had already been blown up by the mountain cannons.
What made Kowada Jiro feel a little uneasy was that there were many dark holes in this cornfield.
"Be careful! These may be authentic tips!" Kowada Jiro reminded loudly, then took off his grenade and pulled out his safety and knocked it on the helmet, and then threw it into a hole.
"Boom!" With a loud bang, a red light rushed out from the entrance of the cave.
Then, the thick smoke came out of the hole.
Other Japanese soldiers followed suit and threw grenades into the hole.
So, continuous explosions sounded from the holes one by one.
However, the speed of the entire infantry brigade was not affected and soon advanced nearly a thousand meters.
Jiro Owada looked up and looked forward and found that it was less than a thousand meters away from the ancestral hall in Yunqi Town, and even the Eighth Route Army built a group of fortifications at the entrance of the ancestral hall.
"Keep the formation and be vigilant!" Captain Takeru Sato shouted loudly.
This is a reminder of those new recruits. There is no need to remind anyone who has ever fought for war veterans like Jiro Owada.
