Tanaka Seido's method is also very simple, that is, ask his superiors for reinforcements, but there must be a reasonable reason for reinforcements.
Therefore, after much thought, Tanaka Seido finally came up with a reason: he encountered the absolute main force of the 1st Guard Regiment of the Ninth Theater Zone and needed the support of the division and regiment headquarters.
Therefore, Tanaka Seido did not hesitate any longer and immediately asked the communications troops to report this information to Matsuura Junrokuro who was in the thunderous place.
It has reached this point. In many cases, it is not difficult for Matsuura Junrokuro to control his work and rest time, especially when there is an urgent battle report.
This time was no exception. Matsuura Junrokuro was also awakened by this urgent battle report.
Matsuura Junrokuro was naturally familiar with the designation of the 1st Guard Regiment of the Ninth War Zone - after all, this unit's performance had always been outstanding, and it was the enemy's most elite unit in northern Jiangxi. During the Second Battle of Jiujiang , and severely damaged part of the 101st Division, how could it be unfamiliar?
Ever since, Matsuura Junrokuro decided to strengthen the strength of the troops in Nantianpu.
However, there is a very real problem - that is, there is pressure from all directions, and all the troops are asking for support. Where are the troops to rescue?
Therefore, Matsuura Junrokuro turned his attention to the group of officers preparing to take off from Jiujiang Airport and rushing to the front line, as well as the group of military supplies preparing to support the front line.
These reinforcements all have one thing in common, that is, they must be transported by air.
Yes, it can be described with two simple words in the "Chicken" game - airdrop!
Now that he has decided to invest this group of officers and military supplies, Matsuura Junrokuro will not wait here stupidly. He has decided to select a team of 800 soldiers to support Nantianpu.
Yes, these more than 800 soldiers were waiting for these airdropped officers!
If more than two hundred officers can be deployed here, except for some officers who will immediately be added to the ranks of soldiers, the rest of the officer ranks will immediately go to the roaring battle.
After all, thunder and drums are the real frontline combat command center!
In order to ensure the safety of Nantianpu's defenders and to ensure that Nantianpu was in his own hands, Matsuura Junrokuro made a very bold decision: to deliver all the officers and military supplies dropped from the plane in the Nantianpu area!
You know, this decision can no longer be described as bold, it is simply crazy! If you are not careful, these two hundred officers and this batch of military supplies will fall into the enemy's hands.
Not to mention anything else, this was definitely a huge blow to the Japanese defenders in Nantianpu!
But at this time, does Junroku Matsuura have any other choice? It seems there is no better choice!
According to Matsuura Junrokuro's idea, these two hundred officers plus 800 soldiers, plus the weapons and equipment supplies dropped by air, are completely enough.
Therefore, without thinking, Matsuura Junrokuro reported directly to Jiujiang, saying that he would send all these officers and supplies in the direction of Nantianpu.
In Jiujiang, after learning about Matsuura Junrokuro's needs, Okamura Neji immediately decided that "all needs of the frontline troops shall prevail."
After all, at this moment, nothing is more important than the needs of the frontline troops, because only they know what is going on on the frontline.
…
The camera turns to Jiujiang Airport.
Under the night, before the rooster crows at dawn, piles of Japanese officers carrying paratrooper bags on their backs and pistols on their waists began to board the transport plane.
Several other aircraft are also constantly loading and unloading weapons and ammunition such as small grenade shells and machine gun bullets, 38-type rifles, and crooked light machine guns. However, heavy machine guns are rarely seen because they are used for assault operations. Needs, not the need for defensive operations.
This is still the first batch of air-dropped supplies. The next batch of air-dropped supplies may not necessarily be just these things. They may also be mortar shells or other things.
In short, this airdrop is mainly about these things.
As the person in charge of the airport, Colonel Nakatoshi Yamamoto must keep an eye on the front line of the airport. He cannot let any accidents occur in this operation.
"Whether Captain Matsuura can come back alive depends on his luck..." As he said that, Colonel Nakatoshi Yamamoto let out a long sigh.
Just when Colonel Nakatoshi Yamamoto was still sighing, a Japanese officer ran next to him and said: "Colonel Yamamoto, Lieutenant Colonel Funjiro from the military headquarters called. He said that according to the deployment of Commander Neiji Okamura, In line with the latest needs of the frontline combat troops, the airdrop direction this time has been temporarily changed to the direction of Nantianpu, please be sure to implement it!"
After hearing this, Yamamoto Nakatoshi said: "Call back Lieutenant Colonel Funjiro immediately. Tell him that I have received the order and will execute it immediately!"
"Hai!!" The Japanese officer stood at attention and lowered his head in response.
After the Japanese officer who came to report left, Yamamoto Nakahisa immediately ordered another officer: "Oi-kun! Order the pilots to assemble immediately!"
"Yes!" The officer known as "Oi-kun" responded.
Soon, these Japanese pilots gathered.
Looking at the dozens of pilots in front of him, Yamamoto was full of pride. He said: "Everyone, you are all heroes of the empire. Logically speaking, you are already on your way to contribute to the empire at this moment. However, due to the temporary temporary mission at this time, Something has changed, so I summoned you to gather together."
These Japanese pilots had already rested and looked in high spirits. They were listening to their commander's instructions.
"After receiving the latest combat order from the Eleventh Army Headquarters, General Okamura Neiji asked us to temporarily change the airdrop location to Nantianpu. Remember, it is Nantianpu, not thunder and drums! You are about to be in the military Mark this place name on the map! To ensure that the mission can be completed smoothly and live up to the expectations of General Neji Okamura!" Colonel Yamamoto's tone was sonorous and powerful, making people feel convinced and following him.
"Hai!!!"
A uniform response echoed throughout the empty airport, giving people a feeling of excitement and fighting spirit.
Not these Japanese pilots. The kind of people who promise but don't work, soon they were scribbling there.
It only took fifteen minutes to board the plane again, which shows how well-trained these Japanese pilots were.
The planes at Jiujiang Airport are preparing to take off, but at the No. 1 highland position outside Nantianpu, the morale of the Japanese troops is not as high as here.
Since the officers and soldiers of the Special Agent Company of the First Guard Regiment withdrew, all that was left to the Japanese troops was a mess on the ground. Their battle losses were as high as 206, while the other side only left one corpse and a Czech light rifle. machine gun.
This could not help but make the captain, Lieutenant Commander Ozawa Langmi, feel a heartfelt insult - he had fought in many battles, but he had never been as cowardly as he is now.
His face was burning with pain, and the shame in his heart made Ozawa have the urge to "commit suicide to express gratitude to the emperor." But he resisted: because he knew that his suicide at this time would not help. , all he can do is to inform Captain Tanaka Seido of the news!
