Battle reports came in like snowflakes, making Duanwu feel that the Japanese commander was indeed not simple.
Just when the Huangshan artillery took the lead and destroyed the Japanese artillery position on the other side of the river, the enemy was also adjusting its tactics.
There are also planes in the sky. Is it really because the Japanese army has no planes to supplement them? Or are the Japanese deliberately showing weakness to themselves?
Danwu felt that things were getting more and more interesting. Among the enemies, there was a commander who was as good at planning as him-Sanjuro Kitano.
Danwu learned the name Kitano Sanjuro from Liu Datou. Liu Datou said that Kitano Sanjuro was a lunatic among the Japs, and even the Japs at the same level as him were afraid of him.
Duan Wu also joked at the time that he wanted to see whether he, the Chinese lunatic, or the Japanese lunatic was more powerful.
But at this time, it seems that Kitano Sanjuroro does have two brushes. After the Japanese artillery position on the other side was blown up, they quickly adjusted their tactics.
He not only moved the artillery positions, but also ordered the Japanese fleet to stop outside the range of the Huangshan fort.
The Jiang'an garrison was also a bunch of pigs. They went to bomb Japanese warships alone without the cover of a fort.
The two torpedo boats were useless and were sunk in the river by the Japanese in seconds.
But at this time, the Japanese warships still did not make any movements, which is difficult to understand. But at the same time, the artillery across the bank that had been previously destroyed by the Huangshan fort launched scattered artillery attacks on Xiaoshan, Xishan, and the forts on the north side of Huangshan.
This is an act similar to provocation, because most of the Japanese artillery positions across the bank were destroyed by the Huangshan, Xishan, and Xiaoshan forts.
Therefore, the provocative behavior of the little devil using only a few cannons is indeed difficult to understand.
In addition, the Japanese attacks of the 672nd and 671st Regiments were also extremely confusing.
At the 672nd Regiment's position, only two squadrons of the Japanese army conducted a feint attack, and the artillery was also dispersed to shoot tentatively at the Dongshan Fort and the 672nd Regiment's position.
But Duanwu received information from the intelligence department last night that the Japanese 58th Wing had arrived.
So where did the troops of this regiment go? Has the little devil just arrived and needs a rest?
But the strangest thing was the position of the 671st Regiment. The Japanese 116th Regiment actually attacked with all its strength. All three battalions of the 671st Regiment were put into battle, but even so, there were still signs of insufficient strength.
The 671st Regiment reported that the Japanese army had deployed at least two brigades to launch a fierce attack on the 671st Regiment's position.
This is so abnormal. That Kitano Sanjuro must be planning something.
But this is not important. What is important is that Danwu cannot be led by Kitano Sanjuro.
Duanwu ordered: "Order Xishan Fort and Xiaoshan Fort to use rapid-fire guns below 100 mm to continuously attack the scattered Japanese artillery. Contain the Japanese artillery across the bank.
The 667th Regiment and the 668th Regiment were ordered to send scouts along the river to investigate whether the Japanese army had the possibility of crossing the river.
Order the river bank garrison to carry mines and prepare to drop them upstream. Remember, the release time is to release the Japanese warships after they enter the firing range of our artillery positions.
The 672nd Regiment was ordered to give up the first line position and everyone retreated to the second line position.
The three battalions of the 671st Regiment were ordered to continue to block the Japanese, and the reserves were temporarily put on hold. The former Jiangyin Fortress garrison was ordered to pretend to reinforce the 671st Regiment position.
The anti-aircraft artillery troops were ordered to stop shelling Japanese aircraft in the air, and the original anti-aircraft machine guns and machine guns were reduced by half.
Order,......"
Dragon Boat Festival issued more than a dozen orders at one time. After the little devil changed his tactics, he also quickly adjusted his tactics.
As a result, the entire Jiangyin Fortress quickly changed its tactics. The original offensive artillery quickly retreated into the air raid shelter, and even the large-caliber anti-aircraft guns were pulled away.
The Japanese planes felt they had an opportunity and dive-bombed the Jiangyin Fortress. But when they swooped down, they discovered that although the large-caliber anti-aircraft guns had been removed, the anti-aircraft machine guns and machine guns were still there.
Moreover, these anti-aircraft machine guns and machine guns moved very quickly, and the little Japanese pilots could not find them accurately at all.
This was a real battle between the air and the road. All the flying formations of the little devils were broken up. They were flying around in the air like headless flies.
More than two dozen bombers and fighter jets could only find their targets to fight. But the ground troops were constantly changing positions.
Although the Little Japanese planes have absolute air superiority, they also have their own disadvantages. Because they cannot be as flexible as the human body.
The air defense troops of Jiangyin Fortress were constantly changing their positions. And especially after the anti-aircraft guns were pulled back into the air raid shelter, their movable range was even greater.
The rapid maneuverability gives the Little Devil's pilot a headache. They now have to find a way to kill the enemy's air defense forces, and also find a way to drop bombs on the enemy's infantry positions.
But this seems to be an impossible thing, because many Japanese soldiers still fly old Liao H1 medium bombers.
This bomber not only has a small bomb load, but can only carry four 100 kilogram bombs at a time. Moreover, their maneuverability was very poor. During the dive bombing, many bombers were destroyed and crashed in the river, Dongshan, and the Little Japanese's own positions.
The explosions of fire rang out one after another, frightening the little Japanese attacking troops.
Because they were waiting for the cooperation of the Japanese bomber group, but they didn't want the planes to fall from the sky one after another.
They didn't know whether the Imperial Japanese Army's fighter planes were here to cooperate with them or to annihilate them.
And what is flying in the sky? Is the Japanese Empire so poor? Even the captured Liao H1 was used.
The little devil looked at that old-fashioned biplane and almost cried. He thought to himself: Could it be that our empire, the Japanese Empire, can’t even get together a fleet of fighter jets produced by itself?
The little Japanese soldiers were crying without tears, and the same was true for the little Japanese pilots. Grandma's performance is completely inferior to that of the Type 93 bomber, right? They drove the Liao H1 and could only rush to the front and serve as cannon fodder. And the captain of Xiongfei is still scolding, saying that all the skills they usually train have been eaten by dogs?
The little Japanese pilots are now bastards, holding their breath and angry, because they cannot get started with this Liao H1 medium bomber at all. They could only barely deal with the enemy's anti-aircraft artillery troops on the ground.
Therefore, although the number of air defense troops on the ground has been reduced, the Japanese army cannot do it at all if they want to bomb the skies above Jiangyin Fortress without restraint.
At the same time, the 672nd Regiment was retreating, giving up part of Dongshan's position.
The little devil was still shouting slogans and firing at the position, but he didn't want to fight for a while. Not only did he not hit anyone, but the enemy troops actually withdrew.
The Japanese squadron leader who led the team looked confused. He was feigning an attack. Isn't it bad to just occupy the enemy's artillery position?
Of course, they didn't dare to issue this order casually, because the current top commander of the 53rd Regiment is that lunatic-Sanjuro Kitano.
Kitano Sanjuro was very strict in managing the army. Once, a small team of Japanese soldiers suffered heavy losses because of their greed for power. He shot all the remaining thirteen people in the team. And that includes wounded soldiers.
So from then on, no one dared to disobey Kitano Sanjuro's orders.
The Japanese squadron leader quickly dispatched a communications unit to report the incident to Kitano Sanjuro.
Kitano Sanjuro was in the command room, bragging with his teacher Naka Kumagai and others. It is said that this move of his is going east and west, concealing the truth and crossing the sea, which will definitely make that Duanwu confused. He could never guess what the purpose of his attack was and where he was going to attack from.
The co-captain of the 53rd Regiment - Naka Kumagaya, naturally trusts his most proud disciple. In his heart, Kitano Sanjuro is the most outstanding and his successor, with an unlimited future.
But relatively speaking, the captain of the second battalion of the 53rd Wing, MCCura, and the captain of the third battalion, Kawachi, were happy to see Sanjuro Kitano defeated.
In their eyes, that Chinese lunatic - Duan Wu could not be defeated so easily. Otherwise, how could that Duan Wu survive to this day?
In the army of the Japanese Empire, there are not many people who want to kill Dragon Boat Festival. And Sanjuro Kitano can only be regarded as one of them.
But they didn't dare to pour cold water on Naka Kumagaya's enthusiasm, unless they didn't want to hang out in the 53rd Wing.
The two of them cooperated with each other to praise Kitano Sanjuro. They want to hold Kitano Sanjuro up high so that when he falls down, he will be bruised and swollen! ...
