As night fell, the earth slowly returned to calm. The soldiers of the large army took the time to rest. The high-intensity battle during the day was really unbearable.
The darkness is not peaceful, and both sides have not completely stopped. Sometimes there are sporadic gunfire still dancing on the battlefield, tracer bullets streaking across the tracks, and explosions one after another...
In the defense area of the first regiment, Long Wenwen held a riding whip and led a group of people to the temporary position of the regiment headquarters aggressively.
A kerosene lamp was lit in the regiment headquarters, and the sound of the telegraph machine was not stopping. Several regiment staff officers were making combat plans, and Kaname, the regiment leader, was among them.
At this time, a second lieutenant rushed in and whispered something in his ear. The latter's face changed drastically, and he quickly put down the things in his hands and ran out.
"Kaname, get over here!"
Before Kaname could get out of the door, he heard that familiar and cynical voice. Long Wenwen opened the curtain and appeared in front of him:
"Son, aren't you capable on the phone? Let me see how capable you are."
Kaname secretly said something bad, good guy... He had been crazy on the phone in the morning. He didn't expect this guy to be so vindictive and come to trouble him in the evening.
Realizing that the other party was here to accuse him, Yao kept smiling, craning his neck to please him: "Hey, hey... I don't have any ability. Misunderstandings... are all misunderstandings."
Long Wenwen snorted coldly, slapped his riding crop on the table, and cursed in an angry manner: "You idiot, don't you want me to see how to take down the Japanese position? Mandalay City is in front, but you are Call me in!"
"Don't dare, don't dare...Sir, sit down quickly, sit down quickly, who is that! Go get a glass of water!"
Kaname quickly brought a chair. After seeing what Bai Tianlong did, how could he dare to challenge him again?
Seeming to be quite sensible, Long Wenwen didn't intend to tease him anymore. He took the tea handed over by the soldier, sat down on the chair and asked, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's report the specific situation."
"The Second and Third Battalions have taken control of the east and south gates. Bula and Milong are in the north. Don't worry, we are basically surrounded by Mandalay City."
He wanted to introduce the situation on the front line in a lively manner. In his opinion, little Japan was now unable to escape.
Unexpectedly, Long Wenwen was not satisfied. He gave him a cold look and said in Sichuan dialect: "Gua Wazi, there are at least 20,000 to 30,000 little Japs in the city. Are you sure to kill them all with a strong attack??"
"Ah, this..." Kaname obviously didn't think of this, scratching his head and asking uncertainly: "How about another one like during the day?"
"You... give me a hammer!" Long Wenwen glared and cursed rudely.
This guy actually wants to attack with poison gas bombs. Can that thing be used at will? Didn't you see the tragic situation on the Irrawaddy defense line? Not even a mouse could survive that.
"We will remove the people from the south later and focus on the other three sides. You don't need to worry about the rest. The people of the 50th Division will take care of it."
There are about 20,000 people left in the city of Mandalay. If the enemy is surrounded from all sides, it may prompt the enemy commander to make up his mind to fight to the death. Then a bloody battle will inevitably occur. Even if Mandalay is captured, it will only kill one enemy. A thousand will cost you eight hundred.
Considering the problem of battle losses, Long Wenwen decided to adopt the tactic of surrounding three buildings and one. Deliberately leaving a gap may cause the enemy commander to waver between escaping or fighting to the death, and at the same time, it will also cause the enemy soldiers to lose their fighting spirit.
It seems to leave a way out for the Japanese army, but in fact it is extremely dangerous. Leaving a virtual gap does not mean leaving it alone, but setting up an ambush at the place where the Japanese army must escape, so that the enemy will fall into an ambush during the hasty escape.
The difficulty of fighting a fleeing enemy is obviously much less than fighting an enemy fighting to the death, and the cost will be much less. Any general with a little brain can calculate this, and the fifty divisions currently coming from support Setting up an ambush on the outside is the best option.
…
In the middle of the night...in the open space at the east gate of Mandalay, a huge loudspeaker was erected. The soldiers found a generator and started busy debugging the equipment.
Looking at the big guy in front of him, Long Wenwen stood aside and was eager to try.
To say that this thing still has a bit of history, it was used at Nantianmen to make Takeuchi Rianshan go crazy and attack like crazy. Now, even if the scene is changed, the effect is still the same.
"Ahem... I'll take your dick!"
"All the little devils in the city, listen up. You are surrounded. If you have the sense to put down your weapons and raise your hands to surrender, you can save your life. Otherwise... you will all die!"
"Who is that... Yamashita Tomofumi, right? I heard that you come from a samurai family, and you were called a giant in the Japanese army, the Malayan Tiger... Bah! I think it's more like a sick cat. If you have the ability, you can come out and have a pair with me. It's a one-on-one challenge. If you can defeat me, I will withdraw my troops immediately..."
The strange sound was particularly loud in this silent night. Seeing Long Wenwen's hard "performance", all the officers around him covered their mouths and couldn't help but laugh.
Long Wenwen still felt that it was not enough, so he called in a soldier who knew Japanese to translate his words word for word, and sprayed all kinds of insults and ridicules towards the opposite side.
"I'm so damn tired."
Long Wenwen howled for a long time, and his throat was almost smoking. He picked up the kettle and poured a few big gulps into his mouth: "Huh... If only Ayi was here, it would be weird if his mouthful of mouth could make the little devil cry in Shanghai at night. .”
"Ha ha…"
As soon as these words came out, several old brothers present couldn't help laughing. Ayi's legendary singing voice in Lashio was so angry that the little devils just opened fire.
Unexpectedly, the uncertain Long Wenwen turned around faster than flipping through a book, and kicked everyone in the butt: "Stop being so fucking happy, go down and get ready, hurry up, hurry up!"
"You bastard, you're just like a dog, you'll fall out when you tell him you're going to fall out." Bu La covered his buttocks and scolded in a low voice as he walked away. Now he's the leader of the group, and he's still the same as when he was the leader of the group.
"It's not like you don't know, this is the virtue of Gou Ri's death." Yaoma shook his head. He was deeply affected by Long Wenwen's side. The best way is to stay away from this lunatic.
Although the loudspeaker kept making loud sounds to persuade them to surrender, the little Japanese remained unmoved at all. Everyone knew that it would be harder for them to surrender than to reach the sky. Long Wenwen naturally also understood that in addition to disgusting the opponent, he naturally had a back-up plan. .
At the same time, the three main regiments were not idle. They took advantage of the hazy night to quickly mobilize their troops, deliberately setting aside the south side, and rushed towards the city from three directions: west, north, and east.
Several flares suddenly shot into the sky, kicking off the nighttime attack.
