"...Zi...Ayi, the position has been taken down, right?"
"Reply to the audience, thanks to the unremitting efforts of all my colleagues, the Engineer Regiment has wiped out countless enemies and completely captured the position. The Japanese invaders were frightened and were like lost dogs. The soldiers of our regiment..."
At this moment, Ayi was so excited that he reported the situation to Liao Mingyu with excitement. After expressing his inner excitement, his fingers finally released the button on the machine.
"...Okay! Where does all this nonsense come from!?" Liao Mingyu shouted loudly from the other side of the machine.
Ayi was startled and almost dropped the walkie-talkie in his hand. At this moment, he didn't know what to do next.
Damn it, can't you just say a few words less?
On the other side, Liao Mingyu was speechless. Because the radio could only speak from one side at a time, he listened to this guy's intense "speech" for a minute.
Shaking his head, Liao Mingyu calmed down a little, and said again: "You did a good job this time, and it makes me look good. You can use less useless nonsense next time."
"Yes...yes, I understand!" Ayi quickly replied.
"Okay, let me talk about the next arrangements. Just leave a small number of troops on the position. If the next wave of Japanese troops attacks again, the Engineer Corps will only be defeated but not victorious!"
"Ah? Senzu, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Ah, what, obey the order, you remember, wait for a wave of little devils to attack and give them the offensive position, but you can't be too fake, at least resist the wave and then pretend that you can't beat them and be forced to retreat, do you hear me clearly? !?"
"Yes, I understand."
Ayi was puzzled. What kind of order was this? If you want to give up the position to little Japan, why let them take it back, and also pretend to be invincible? Isn't this embarrassing?
Although he was extremely confused, he did not dare to ask any more questions and just conveyed the order word for word.
This position was originally a temporary construction, but now it has been pockmarked by artillery fire from both sides. Let alone pretending to be invincible, I am afraid that they may not be able to defend the next wave of Japanese troops even if they attack them head-on.
There was no choice but to do what needed to be done. At this time, the soldiers of the Engineer Corps began to repair their positions.
This means that they have specialization in martial arts. Their combat effectiveness may not be as good as the three main groups for the time being, but in terms of building positions, they can lag behind the latter by a few blocks.
You must know that the two main positions of Highland 233 and the left-wing jungle were built by them before the war. The speed and quality are not boasted. Even if the little devil comes here, they may not be able to build them so well in just a few days.
At the same time, the engineering regiment also arranged a large number of detonators and TNT in front of the position. When connected to the wires, they were remote-controlled bombs, and there were many S-shaped mines. These things were enough for a little devil to drink a pot.
…
After the 165th Regiment retreated, Captain Shimohiko ran to Tanaka Shinichi obediently, waiting for the coming anger.
It's just that Tanaka didn't get angry this time. It was completely reasonable for the 165th Regiment to be defeated. After all, it was very good for a new recruits Regiment to achieve this step.
Now he had to re-examine the opponent's strength. Although this guy had a bad temper, his military quality was still quite high.
Judging from the firepower and combat effectiveness of the Chinese army on the opposite side, if they charged forward like this, the best case scenario would be to injure the enemy by 1,000 and damage themselves by 800, but I couldn't think of a way to deal with it for a while.
Tanaka stared at the battle map for a long time without saying anything. At this moment, he was thinking hard about the next strategic plan.
The two main positions of the Chinese are impregnable and cannot be defeated in a short while. The only way out now seems to be the open land far away from the main headquarters.
"Shitahiko, you've been playing in that open area for two days. Did you find any problems?" Tanaka Shinichi asked with a frown.
"Your Excellency, the commander of the division, after my observation, the defenders arranged there by the Chinese are obviously a second-rate force. It can be seen from the battle that their combat effectiveness is almost the same as that of the 165th Regiment. Even when we were shelling with all our strength, This group of enemies collapsed in an instant."
"So, the opponent is just a new recruit? If it were my 56th Regiment that would have captured the position long ago, perhaps it would have attacked Highland 233 from behind."
Eguchi, the captain of the 56th Regiment who likes to brag and exaggerate, sneered with disdain. Although his words also disgusted other officers present, the combat effectiveness of the 165th Regiment was indeed too bad.
Judging from the strength of the enemy forces on the frontal defense line, if it was their main force fighting the 165th Regiment, it would be impossible for the position to be captured by Shimohiko for the second time.
"Don't make any noise! Shimohiko, keep talking." Tanaka scolded unhappily.
"When the enemy counterattacked later, although their equipment was much stronger than the previous wave, the combat efficiency was still very low. The ability to regain the position completely relied on their equipment and the 165th Alliance itself."
Speaking of this, Xiayan also blushed a little. Who made his troops so unsatisfactory?
Tanaka Shinichi squinted his eyes and said nothing. His cold eyes gradually fell on the open land on the map. No one knew what he was thinking.
The next day, the 18th Division only conducted several tentative artillery attacks, but each time it was met with counterattacks by three artillery battalions unwilling to be outdone.
What is strange is that they did not launch a large-scale attack. The battlefield seemed to have entered a confrontation stage, which made Liao Mingyu unclear about the opponent's intentions for a while.
…
At the same time, a thrilling offensive and defensive battle began in Tengchong, which was more than 100 kilometers away.
The war situation became increasingly severe. Both sides invested a large amount of troops, especially the Western Yunnan Expeditionary Force. Under the command of Wei Lihuang, the two armies launched attacks from three directions at the same time.
The U.S. Flying Task Force in China dispatched more than two hundred aircraft of various types to conduct endless and indiscriminate bombings on various Japanese garrison points such as Tengchong, Gaoligong Mountain, and Laifeng Mountain.
Although the Japanese air defense forces were doing their best to resist, they lost their air superiority and were very passive under the US bombing.
The Japanese Army Air Force in Myanmar did dispatch aircraft to conduct several air battles, but now facing the US Air Force, which is not inferior to them in quality and quantity, the Japanese fighter planes are obviously somewhat inadequate.
Both sides had to use their maximum strength, and the fighting situation became more and more intense. Strictly speaking, the expeditionary force had a huge advantage in strength and firepower, but the battle did not proceed as expected.
First, there was a problem with the 2nd Army attacking Gaoligong Mountain. The Japanese 146th Regiment used a night attack to severely damage its 6th Division, which greatly reduced the morale of the entire army and hindered the attack.
The 20th Army, which also attacked the outer positions of Fengshan and Tengchong, also had a hard time. The Japanese used a large number of chemical weapons, forcing the 53rd Army and the 54th Army to retreat 30 kilometers eastward.
