A brigade from the 115th Division participated in the battle. Although they were poorly equipped, they still caused a lot of trouble to the little Japanese.
They successfully blocked the Japanese 26th Brigade and prevented it from reinforcing Laoye Ridge.
So at this time, Dragon Boat Festival has enough time to rest.
He first ordered his troops to block all the main roads around Highland No. 3, and then ordered all soldiers to eat and rest.
Seeing this scene, the kid Akashiba Yaezo felt confused. Shouldn't his enemies attack Highland No. 3 in one go? Why was it suddenly besieged but not attacked?
It's very much like calling for reinforcements at a siege.
However, Akashiba Yaezo only guessed half of it right. Danwu did have such an idea, but he was more concerned about the physical condition of the soldiers.
Whether it is the independent regiment in Dragon Boat Festival or the newly joined troops such as Wang Tong and Lu Jian, they are fighting for days. The physical condition of the soldiers was very exhausted. With such a force to attack Highland No. 3, it is inevitable to defeat it, but the casualties are hard to say.
What's more, Dragon Boat Festival also needs to know the overall situation of the army. It was a great fight just now, and the Japanese killed a lot of people, but what about the casualties of the troops? How much equipment and materials were seized? And is it possible to feed war with war?
Nowadays, Duanwu's weapons and ammunition are consumed a lot. Even if he is really rich, the warehouse will be empty after a few battles.
Dragon Boat Festival will not wait for his ammunition depot to be empty before thinking of ways to solve the problem of insufficient ammunition. But the more weapons and ammunition, the better.
However, this is a huge project problem.
Without the old abacus by his side, these things would become very troublesome.
Before, he only had to call Old Abacus over, and Old Abacus would tell him how many casualties each department had suffered, the ammunition consumption, and how many weapons and ammunition had been seized. Which troops need to replenish weapons and ammunition immediately, and which troops can wait first.
But at this time, all these tasks have to be completed by Duan Wu and several battalion commanders, including Lu Jian, Wang Tong and others.
All the data that I heard during the Dragon Boat Festival were huge, because everyone was calculating their own numbers, and when they finally put the data together, they still didn't add up.
Duanwu had no choice but to go into battle himself, first calculating the weapons and casualties of his independent regiment, and then summarizing them with Lu Jian and Wang Tong.
And this is not unknown, I was really shocked when I counted the Dragon Boat Festival.
It was indeed a pleasure for him to kill the Japanese, but his independent regiment lost more than 1,400 people in many battles with the Japanese army. One and a half of his battalions were completely gone.
Moreover, the consumption of weapons and ammunition is also very huge, especially the ammunition for automatic weapons. Lao Shou and Duan Wu reported that in his battalion, each soldier only had two or three 20-round magazines, and some even did not have enough ammunition at all.
According to the current consumption rate, Lao Snoring suggested that if he used it sparingly, he could still fight two more battles.
Duanwu shook his head and said: "Save it. First, the soldiers will not be used to it. And secondly, the function of the submachine gun is to completely suppress the enemy with firepower, so that significant results can be achieved. Blindly saving bullets will only increase the number of casualties.

Let the soldiers concentrate their ammunition on half of them, so that each soldier holding a submachine gun can get five to six magazines, and there will be no problem in fighting two more battles.
The other half of the people used the little Japanese's Type 38 rifles and crooked machine guns. The soldiers of your third battalion won't be able to fight without their submachine guns, right? "
Lao Snoring chuckled and said, "That's not possible. When they practice shooting, they use Type 38 rifles."
Duanwu said: "That's good, let's do it like this. Lao Zhu from the first battalion, Lao Sun from the second battalion, and Lao Pang from the fourth battalion, you do the same. Look at the weapons of each battalion. If the submachine gun has few bullets , then concentrate the bullets, and then some people will use the little devil's 38-type rifles first.
And Lao Sun, all types of guns captured will be yours to distribute.
We will use the heavy artillery today. When we attack Highland No. 3 in three hours, we will blow it up hard until all the shells are gone. We will not need these heavy artillery. I will blow them all together. "
"Commissioner, don't blow up, don't blow up, give us the Sichuan troops?"
"Commissioner, don't blow up, don't blow up, give us the Northeastern Army?"
Lu Jian and Wang Tong said almost in unison. Because it is a cannon. Even if there are no cannon shells, keeping it is still an asset. If the little devil's cannon shells are captured again, wouldn't they be usable again?
In fact, at this time, the two of them almost had the same idea, that is, the special correspondent was too prodigal, and his good-looking cannon was about to explode.
Of course, it was impossible for them to say such words, but they smiled with pleading faces.
Duanwu also smiled and asked: "We may have to fight in the future. Can this artillery keep up with the team? Don't care about this small loss. If we can repel the little devil this time, then we What you get will be much more than this.”
Lu Jian and Wang Tong thought about it and felt that what the commissioner said made sense. They had run all the way from Bengbu and rested for more than an hour in Fengyang County. They were as tired as their grandson.
Although these words didn't sound good, at that time, Lu Jian and Wang Tong both felt that they were grandsons. They really thought about not running away and sat comfortably in the car.
However, while the special agents were still running, they couldn't stop or just get in the truck.
Therefore, Dragon Boat Festival's move is very unique. No matter whether it is an officer or a soldier, no one dares to complain or has any complaints. Because the Dragon Boat Festival has been running. Other people's special correspondents are taking steps, so as lower-level officers and soldiers, are you more special agents than other people's special correspondents?
So at that time, no officer or soldier had any complaints, and everyone ran behind Duanwu.
But are you tired? Only each of them knows that. Therefore, dragging the cannon under this situation is tantamount to adding insult to injury.
Lu Jian and Wang Tong sighed, the reluctance in their hearts showing on their faces.
As the Sichuan Army and the Northeast Army, they are really in dire straits now.
Fortunately, they had sufficient weapons and ammunition. Duanwu had just led them to encircle and annihilate two brigades of the Japanese Tenth Regiment, and seized a large amount of ammunition that they had not had time to take away, including four mortars and ten grenades. Two 100mm caliber rapid-fire guns, two 75mm caliber mountain guns, etc.
Those heavy artillery will explode after the battle on Highland No. 3, but those rifles, machine guns, grenades, mortars, etc. can be taken away.
Duanwu divided these things into two parts, one part was replenished to his independent regiment, and the other part was divided into three parts, two parts for the Sichuan Army, and one part for the Northeast Army, and asked them to replenish their own ministries, and then for three hours After that, launch an attack on Highland No. 3 and annihilate the Japanese Tenth Regiment in one fell swoop! ...
