The camera turned to Nantianpu, the Japanese military headquarters.
Yes, it is the headquarters, not the wing headquarters of a certain wing.
At this time, the strength of the 106th Division was much weaker than before, and it could no longer even fight as a unit, so the decision to use the unit headquarters as the direction of operations was temporarily cancelled.
But it is different now. The Japanese army has suffered excessive losses and the division commander Junroku Matsuura has made up his mind to stand still and wait for reinforcements. Therefore, it is most appropriate to conduct operations based on a certain headquarters as a unit.
In other words, to sum up, it is to assess the situation.
The commander of Nantianpu is Captain Tanaka Shengdao United, because at this time, the number of Nantianpu defenders has reached 2,000, and among the current strength of the 106th Division, it has reached one-sixth. proportion.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Matsuura Junrokuro decided to let Tanaka Shoichi perform this defensive task.
"Your Excellency, Captain, our troops have made all battle preparations. We have occupied the surrounding small highlands. We are already building fortifications. When the Chinese Army comes to invade, we will be able to rely on the three nearby The high ground forms a horn, and we will finally defend Nantianpu!" Shan Fengwu is Tanaka Shengdao's staff advisor who has always been by his side, and he can be said to be half of his own people.
"That's good, this thing was done beautifully!" Tanaka Shengdao said seriously. His praise was unabashed. Maybe it was because he was one of his own people who served on the mountain, but the action of occupying the three highlands was indeed very impressive. quick.
"Thank you for the compliment, sir!" Shan Feng stood at attention and saluted.
The small house under the oil lamp looked particularly dim, and no one knew whether it could be defended tomorrow.
However, according to Tanaka Shengdao's arrangement, the two thousand people were divided into five groups. In addition to the three groups occupying the highlands, there were also those guarding the village.
Apart from this, there is only one group left that serves as the reserve team.
It has to be said that Tanaka Shengdao's arrangement was extremely clever, because only in this way can the national army's attack on Lei Minggu Liu and Zhang Gushan be delayed to the greatest extent.
You know, as long as Lei Minggu Liu and Zhang Gushan are captured, the Japanese army will definitely lose this battle - because this is their last line of defense!
…
The night was quiet, with cicadas chirping and frogs chirping, bringing some life to this dark night.
Liu Houming led his soldiers and searched in the darkness.
"Company Commander, we don't have much time. The regiment commander asked us to complete the task of detecting the enemy's situation. Can we complete it?" a platoon leader next to Liu Houming asked.
"Even if we can't finish it, we have to find a way to do it. At least we have to find out how many people the Japs have deployed on the outside. How many strongholds are there? If we don't even know where the enemy is, what kind of situation do we have to be able to report to the group? Hand in hand. The time given to the group is to take down the Nantianpu within twenty-four hours. This time is quite outrageous. If it had been someone else, it might not have been possible to complete it well." Liu Houming said seriously, and that's what he said. To be honest, he was trained by Zhang Tianhai, so there is no reason not to think about Zhang Tianhai.
In other words, only when the boss is safe can we continue to rise steadily.
Liu Houming's current situation is like this. He must ensure that Zhang Tianhai can complete this task, so as to ensure everyone's safety.
The capture of Nantianpu within twenty-four hours could be said to be a fatal order. The higher-ups wanted to complete the capture of Nantianpu as soon as possible and then completely annihilate the headquarters of the Japanese 106th Division.
"Yes, company commander. I understand the humble position." The platoon leader nodded.
Liu Houming was not a fool. He naturally knew that if the regiment leader wanted to complete his mission, the regiment leader would definitely launch an attack on Nantianpu in the early morning.
Therefore, Liu Houming must complete the reconnaissance of the enemy tonight.
Of course, things need to be done, but work efficiency is also something that needs to be paid attention to, so Liu Houming divided the army into four parts, and took separate actions at the platoon level to explore.
Night was still night, but the Japanese army did not dare to relax their vigilance: indeed, the Chinese army would not engage in night battles under normal circumstances, but under the current circumstances, how could the Chinese army not engage in night battles?
You know, due to the huge disparity in the sophistication of weapons and equipment between the National Army and the Japanese Army, the National Army also engaged in night battles with the Japs on many occasions. Especially when there was such a roar, how could they relax their vigilance? Maybe patrols have been stepped up.
Yes, this is what the Japanese army did. They did strengthen patrols, especially the intensity of patrols.
As the saying goes, Xiao He succeeds and Xiao He loses. It is precisely because the Japanese army increased the intensity of patrols that their position was exposed, and even the personnel were exposed to a certain extent.
The piles of burning fires are the best beacons, shining brightly in the darkness, so inconspicuous.
"Platoon leader, there is a fire for the little devil over there!" A soldier with good eyesight reported to his platoon leader.
The platoon leader looked carefully in the direction pointed by the soldier - there was indeed a pile of burning torches.
"Mark it, two people, come over and see what's going on with the little devil!" the platoon leader whispered. Since there was wind blowing around, there was a rustling sound, covering up everything around him. .
"Yes, platoon leader!" Two soldiers quickly responded in a low voice, and then sneaked forward.
However, after the two soldiers set off, the platoon leader was not idle. He waved his hand and said softly: "Grenade, the machine gunner is ready immediately. If the little devil dares to kill our people, we will attack immediately." attack!"
"Yes! Platoon commander!"
Soon, there was a soft response.
In addition to this response, there was also a chirping mechanical sound. It was obvious that this was the sound of the machine gunner and the grenade thrower making preparations.
In the dark night, the muzzles of black holes were pointed at the small high ground on the opposite hill. Whenever their comrades were attacked, they believed that these machine gun bullets and small bullet-tipped artillery shells would be poured on the opposite hill.
In this starless night covered by dark clouds, murderous intent is everywhere here.
…
On the other side, Zhang Tianhai also stayed up all night. He was sitting in the command post of the regiment, quietly studying the combat plan submitted by the regiment staff.
Zhang Tianhai approved and corrected it again and again, but never got a correct answer.
To capture Nantianpu within twenty-four hours, to be honest, this is a very challenging combat goal.
The key is that this is a battle conducted when the enemy's situation is unknown. If his troops cannot capture Nantianpu within twenty-four hours, he himself does not know what consequences he will bear.
But no matter what, Zhang Tianhai must find a way to complete this task as soon as possible. He must assist the First Corps to annihilate the Japanese 106th Division before reinforcements from the Japanese 101st Division arrive.
Zhang Tianhai knew very well, what was the biggest regret in this great victory at Wanjialing? That is to let the division commander of the Japanese 106th Division, Matsuura Junrokuro, run away.
