"Oh? Is it still the most capable unit in your regiment?" Speaking of this, Ji Zhangjian's eyes lit up. He needed the support of elite soldiers so much.
"Yes, but the scale is a bit small. My company originally had about two hundred people. Unfortunately, twelve brothers were injured or killed in the previous battle, so there are only two hundred people left." Zhang Tianhai did not hide it. He didn't hold back, but admitted it openly.
"No problem. With the support of Commander Zhang, I think our Sixth Division will be able to open the gap in front soon." Ji Zhangjian laughed loudly, as if the military failure during the day would not have much negative impact on him.
"Sir Ji, would you like to see if it is convenient for you to open a gap for the humble position? Let me, the two hundred people, come forward to conduct reconnaissance?" Zhang Tianhai smiled, as if he was already confident.
"It's no problem to open a gap. The key is, which gap should be opened?" Ji Zhangjian asked, with the smile still on his face.
Zhang Tianhai thought for a while and said, "Just head in the direction of Zhang Gushan! NTUC feels that Zhang Gushan will be the focus."
Zhang Tianhai chose the direction of Zhang Gushan just out of curiosity. After all, Zhang Lingfu was also the place where Zhang Lingfu became famous. He became famous in the first battle with Zhang Gushan.
If it weren't for the strategic location of Zhanggushan, how could Zhang Lingfu become famous through this battle?
Thinking about it, Zhang Tianhai chose the direction of Zhang Gushan without hesitation. As for helping to prepare the Sixth Division, it was just a matter of convenience - in his opinion, if the 91st Division is a brigade, then Coupled with the reserve division of the Sixth Division, the entire three brigades cannot attack the position. What can they do with just these few people?
You know, this is a big battle. Unless the entire first regiment of guards is dispatched, there is no chance of winning.
Zhang Tianhai thought he couldn't do it by handing his back to someone he had just met: Although they were all troops who came forward to resist the Japanese, when they were really trapped in a tight siege, the Sixth Preparatory Division would really risk their lives. To save? Not necessarily?
"Okay." Ji Zhangjian nodded, "How about this? I will send a battalion of troops to cooperate with your department in carrying out operations. What do you think, Commander Zhang?"
"It's an honor to hold a humble position, so being respectful is worse than obeying orders." Zhang Tianhai smiled and agreed. After all, sometimes having more troops would be a guarantee.
Although the combat effectiveness of the troops of the 6th Reserve Division is worse than that of the Special Agent Company of the 1st Guard Regiment, it is still better than nothing, right?
At this time, it was getting dark, and Zhang Tianhai did not delay. He led the officers and soldiers of the special agent company and the battalion of the Sixth Preliminary Division forward.
The battalion commander of the battalion dispatched by the Sixth Preparatory Division was Hao Dachun. He was from the Northeast. It was said that he had been taken in from the Northeast Army's defeated troops on the battlefield.
According to the orders of Commander Ji Zhangjian, Hao Dachun's troops must unconditionally obey the orders of Commander Zhang Tianhai during this operation.
As for what the order was, Ji Zhangjian did not elaborate. He just asked him to obey Zhang Tianhai's order. After all, on the battlefield, anything can happen at any time.
"Battle Commander Hao, for this combat operation, you can just follow us for the time being. Our special agent company has been specially trained. Coupled with the high level of firepower, it will not be difficult to capture the Japanese high ground. Yes, but we need you to help us withstand the Japanese counterattack in the future. After all, the weapons and ammunition we carry are limited, and we will definitely not be able to fight a protracted war with the Japs." Zhang Tianhai explained to Hao Dachun to avoid any inconvenience. Necessary misunderstanding.
After all, in this day and age, isn't it common for the direct line troops to push the other-name troops to the bottom?
Although the Sixth Preparatory Division also belongs to the Central Military Commission and is indeed a direct line unit worthy of the name, can the direct line units also be divided into distant and near units? Troops like the Sixth Preparatory Division can only be regarded as collateral within the direct line. How can the First Guard Regiment of the Ninth Theater Zone be compared with the direct line within the direct line of the Central Army?
Therefore, Zhang Tianhai must not let this happen.
Perhaps it is because Zhang Tianhai traveled from later generations, so his views on the anti-Japanese troops are different from others: in his view, the anti-Japanese troops are anti-Japanese troops, and as long as they are fighting against Japan, they are The anti-Japanese troops should treat everyone equally.
"Thank you, Captain Zhang. I understand, I will definitely not hold back your army." Hao Dachun assured.
"Well, Commander Hao, I believe you can do it." With that, Zhang Tianhai patted Hao Dachun on the shoulder.
The night was still quiet, except for the rustling sounds of the large troops marching.
Is this the direction? Some doubts flashed through Zhang Tianhai's mind, and he took out the compass in his arms.
By the moonlight, he finally determined the direction of progress again.
…
Due to the participation of the Sixth Preparatory Division, Zhang Tianhai did not choose to go in front of the team. Instead, he let Liu Houming lead the team to the front.
Liu Houming must be an expert in sneak attacks on enemy positions, so Zhang Tianhai felt relieved and let him lead the team there.
While waiting to prepare the troops of the Sixth Division, Zhang Tianhai quietly said to him: "This time our troops are performing a reconnaissance mission. If we can do our best not to alarm the enemy, we will do our best."
Looking at the rugged terrain around him in the darkness, Liu Houming not only paid great attention to the road under his feet, but also focused on places where enemy troops might be present.
"First row, move in that direction." Liu Houming pointed to the left front and made a series of tactical gestures.
After receiving Liu Houming's order, the officers and soldiers of the first platoon of the special agent company immediately chose to move forward quietly to the left.
Sure enough, news came back after a while: Japanese troops were indeed stationed here, but it was unknown how many enemy troops were stationed.
Zhang Tianhai did not hesitate and ordered the special agent company to attack here immediately, but he was not allowed to capture it, because this was fire reconnaissance, and in his mind: How many enemies there are, wouldn't he know after just a dozen?
Therefore, in the darkness, the officers and soldiers of the special agent company quickly arranged the throwing direction of the grenade towards the enemy's presence.
After a while, there was an explosion in the position where the Japanese army was located.
But the strange thing is that the Japanese army only faced explosions, but did not wait for any firepower charge.
When the Japanese army reacted and rushed to the position to take advantage, they were faced with another heavy rain of bullets like a downpour.
The casualty rate of the Japanese army suddenly increased.
