Facts have proved that you really can't do things like causing trouble, as you will easily suffer retaliation from the other party.
For example, this is the case with Zhang Tianhai's Zhiyi Regiment. The Japanese army is already plotting to launch the most ferocious attack on the headquarters of the First Regiment directly under the Third Theater Zone at any time.
At this time, Guan Linzheng, commander of the 52nd Army, was very happy because the second division could successfully capture Jiuding Mountain, so he took a group of followers to climb the mountain to observe the situation.
"Dongguo, your 2nd Division is worthy of being the main force of our 20th Legion. Your Second Division is indispensable for taking Jiuding Mountain in this battle. When Yixian is captured, I will personally send a report to the principal. I thought you were asking for credit!" Guan Linzheng patted Zheng Dongguo on the shoulder and said very seriously.
"The military throne is an honor. The Second Division is the elite of Huangpu. After the victory of the Northern Expedition, all the elites of the three divisions were concentrated in our division. It is also our duty to capture a mere Jiuding Mountain." Zheng Dongguo said very humbly. said.
"Well, very good. We Huangpu people should have this attitude. You command the troops first, and I will take the people to the mountains to have a look!" Guan Linzheng said with a grin, and then led a group of followers up. .
In Yixian City, the Japanese artillery position.
Since Jiudingshan was captured by the Chinese army, the Japanese artillery must directly separate four or five of the eighteen artillery pieces to stare at the Jiudingshan position. Otherwise, the situation would be even worse for them. Passive.
"Your Excellency, squadron leader, we have discovered that a large number of Chinese Army officers have appeared on Jiuding Mountain, requesting shooting, please approve!" A Japanese soldier ran to the commander of the artillery squadron in charge of Jiuding Mountain, Kurosawa Zhiling, and reported.
"Nani? Wait for me to take a look!" As he said that, Kurosawa Zhiling picked up the telescope in his hand and looked in the direction of Jiuding Mountain.
I saw a team of obviously national army officers walking on the mountain road of Jiuding Mountain. There were at least fifteen officers!
"Prepare the bombardment immediately, you must immediately! This must be a senior official of the China Army! They must be blown up to death there!" Kurosawa Zhiling's voice trembled a little. For him, this was a big deal. good chance!
For the Japanese troops like them, if Tang Enbo is on the opposite side, blowing him up might leave a way out for their Jigu division trapped in Yi County - the enemy's combat system is in chaos, which is not good for them. From my own perspective, that’s a great thing!
"Hai!" The Japanese soldier responded immediately and ran back as fast as he could.
Within two minutes, the Japanese artillery opened fire!
"Ready! Release!!" Under the roar of the Japanese artillery squadron leader, the small flag of the leading Japanese soldier suddenly waved down, and all four artillery guns fired in unison!
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Four artillery shells pierced the sky and struck the stone mountain of Jiuding Mountain. For a moment, stone fragments flew randomly, mixed with fragments of the artillery shells and impact.
This burst of shelling caused Guan Linzheng, the commander of the 52nd Army, to immediately lie down subconsciously. He was not killed at will, but his followers were not so lucky. Several soldiers fell in a pool of blood. The officer Several were also slightly injured.
"Damn, these little devils!" Guan Linzheng cursed secretly, and then ordered his followers to go down the mountain quickly.
Just after the Japanese artillery fire was launched, Tang Enbo's regiment also launched its counterattack artillery fire. The target was the artillery position in the Japanese city. For a moment, the sound of artillery was rumbling, whether it was in Jiuding Mountain or in Yi County City, it was rumbling. Flying across.
Guan Linzheng led his entourage up, but encountered an artillery bombardment. The news soon spread throughout the 52nd Army, which made Guan Linzheng blush with anger.
"Fight! We must fight hard! The stubborn little devil is really tired of living! Order the 25th Division to speed up the march and be sure to remove the outer positions of Little Japan as quickly as possible!" Guan Linzheng was fierce He punched the table and made a loud noise.
"Yes! Military seat!" A combat staff officer next to him responded.
While the artillery of the 20th Army Corps was exchanging artillery fire with the Japanese artillery from afar, Zhang Tianhai was sitting in the temporary stronghold of the regiment headquarters without saying a word, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
In short, the bowl of noodles in front of him has gone cold. This is an undeniable fact!
"Regiment leader, this little devil is having such a lively fight with the artillery of Tang Enbo's regiment. Why don't we also blast him a few times?" Operations Staff Officer Xu Xun reported to Zhang Tianhai immediately after returning from outside.
Zhang Tianhai shook his head and said: "No need, Tang Enbo's army will attack them. They are a large army. Whether in the first theater or the fifth theater, they have a decisive position. If their artillery fires all the shells, the theater will take priority." Supplement. We only have this little wealth, and I got it by cheating and tricking people everywhere. It can’t be compared.”
"Yes, regimental leader. I understand my humble position." Xu Xun reported.
"Old Zhang, I'm looking at you today, but you've been looking worried all day. Tell me, what's the situation that makes our leader Zhang so worried?" Guo Qiliang walked to Zhang Tianhai and asked.
"Isn't it the reason for the movement of the Japanese troops? We went to hug them last night, but this little devil didn't even fart. This is the most troublesome time..." Zhang Tianhai looked sad, As the supreme commander of the Zhiyi Regiment, the lives of the entire regiment's 4,000 people were tied to him. If there was any improper command, it would not be as simple as the death of one or two people.
"According to me, maybe the matter is not as serious as you think. Now the Second Division of Zheng Dongguo under Tang Enbo's regiment has occupied Jiuding Mountain. This little devil was directly pointed at the head with a gun. Maybe There is no time to care! After all, Zhang Yaoming's 25th Division has also been deployed to the north of Jiuding Mountain to fight, and the battle is also very fierce." Guo Qiliang analyzed, in his opinion, this is really the case.
Zhang Tianhai thought for a while, organized his words, and then said: "I may have thought about this, but I always feel that it is not that simple. The artillery fire just now bombarded Jiuding Mountain, and the artillery of Tang Enbo's regiment also immediately launched Counterattack. In other words, although Jiuding Mountain is already in the hands of our army, the Japanese army has not completely lost the initiative. In other words, they still have the ability to fight back. Although they broke through from Taierzhuang, We have no way of knowing what the specific strength will be after the breakout."
Before Guo Qiliang could answer, Zhang Tianhai continued: "But judging from their artillery fire last night, the supplies of the Japanese troops can still keep up. During this period of time during the day, their planes were not only strafing us. In addition, they are basically supplying the Japanese troops. Although they cannot keep up with the land supply, the supplies obtained by planes alone are not small. Just wait, these little devils must have a big conspiracy. "
With that said, Zhang Tianhai let out a long sigh. To be honest, he was not scared by the Japanese army's formation. He had never been scared after fighting in Songhu for so long, let alone now?
In fact, to put it bluntly, it was mainly because I couldn't guess the Japanese army's tactics that I was so troubled. The most terrifying enemy was the enemy who was hiding in the dark but not making any moves.
What's more, the Zhiyi Regiment finally regained some of its vitality. If the Japanese army were to fight more brutally, the Zhiyi Regiment might have been beaten to a worse state. Now the only third battalion composed entirely of veterans has also been put up. , if even this battalion is defeated, Zhang Tianhai really has no confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Zhiyi Regiment.
Three-quarters of the combatants in a unit are recruits who have not undergone systematic training. Who would believe that such a unit has strong combat effectiveness?
Let alone others, even Zhang Tianhai doesn’t believe it himself...
"Then there is no other way. We can only cover it with water and cover it with soldiers. Even if the Japanese army launches a massive counterattack against us, we can only continue, right? Besides, with the strength of our regiment, they Can you still beat us to the ground?" Guo Qiliang said with a smile.
Guo Qiliang really never thought about the possibility of the Zhiyi Regiment being beaten to death by the Japanese. With the current strength of the Zhiyi Regiment, even if there are more recruits than veterans, they will always shoot, right? Positional warfare is the easiest way to kill enemies.
"You're right, but our artillery still has to be prepared. If the Japanese army really launches a large-scale counterattack, we must beat them to the ground as soon as possible!" With that, Zhang Tianhai stood up. , and then began to eat his bowl of cold noodles.
With the current firepower configuration of the Zhiyi Regiment, as long as the Japanese army does not dispatch more than one brigade and then assign heavy artillery units, it is really not that simple to capture them!
I dare not say anything else. If it were an ordinary regiment of the Japanese army, fighting in the same situation without foreign aid, at least the regiment would not suffer a big loss!
The Japanese army's victory was due to its strong individual combat effectiveness and the large number of veterans, but what made the regiment better than them was the weapon configuration, artillery firepower, and the supporting firepower of the company-level combat units!
