The position that Shi Dazhu and other Sichuan regiments defended with their lives failed to hold the position in the end, and crazy Japanese soldiers occupied it.
However, this is not the only line of defense for the Sichuan Army. There are second, third, and fourth lines of defense behind them...
Setting up so many lines of defense, and each line of defense has its own unique geographical advantages, is to consume the Japanese advancing troops, wear down their spirit, and then annihilate the prominent part of the Japanese advancing troops in one fell swoop. This is Li Zongren and others Man's plan - to lure the enemy deep into the enemy's territory, then gather them together and annihilate them.
…
The camera flashed and returned to the north bank of Xinqiang River.
At this time, the town of Jiankou was still in silence, and the Japanese soldiers did not sleep well. Because of the limited troop strength, the squadron leader did not send additional troops to other places for security like other troops. Their main force was basically They are all deployed in Jangkou Town - their role in Jangkou Town is to guard!
Just when the Japanese soldiers were sleeping soundly, the national army troops had quietly touched their side, including their sentries, which had all been touched off!
Yes, this unit is the Special Agent Company of the First Guard Regiment of the Ninth Theater Zone of the National Army!
As the most capable unit among the security forces of the National Army's Ninth Theater Command, the task of the special agent company at this time was to reach the outskirts of Juankou Town, blow up their resting places, and use the explosion's flames to indicate targets for the artillery units.
Yes, it means pointing out the target. It is an hour before dawn. The explosion at this time will clearly point out a direction in the endless darkness. The artillery unit can kill these Japanese troops as long as the artillery fires.
In order to ensure the safety of the artillery troops, in Zhou Fangjie's combat plan, the artillery battalion only appeared once, which was to blow up the Japanese bunkers and gun towers.
"Demoman! Come on!" Liu Houming made a gesture, and several national soldiers carrying explosive bags ran to the corners of the gun towers and bunkers with very smooth movements.
"boom!!"
After the gunfire rang out, all the demolitioners lit the fuses, and then ran back quickly under the cover of night.
It has to be said that these officers and soldiers trained so painstakingly by Zhang Tianhai are very strong. At least their physical fitness and various tactical movements can help them escape the scene quickly.
"Enemy attack!! Alert!!"
Obviously, that gunshot woke up all the Japanese soldiers in Jiankou Town. Their combat literacy was very high and they rushed to the scene immediately. However, what they didn't know was that this was only the first link in a series of plans. .
In the distance, all the national army's artillery was ready. They wanted to fire all 60 shells in the shortest possible time. On average, this was about five shells per gun.
…
They saw that these Japanese soldiers had just rushed to their combat posts when the explosion occurred. They had no time to think about why the enemy would touch their feet silently.
"Boom!!!"
"Boom!!!"
"Boom!!!"
valley……
The fireworks emitted during the explosion were like sparks blooming in the dark night, very dazzling, and at the same time, they were like a beacon that pointed the direction to the officers and soldiers of the Artillery Battalion of the First Guard Regiment.
As early as when the sun was about to set the day before, the officers and soldiers of these artillery battalions had already roughly aimed at the direction. Even the artillery positions were quietly opened, waiting to be revised again before launching an attack.
"Correction of the muzzle upward two degrees, three rounds of rapid fire, ready!!" the artillery officers shouted, as if the explosion in the distance did not affect them at all.
Since the Japanese army only repaired a dozen houses, and the gaps between them were not large, this saved the Chinese artillery a lot of energy.
"put!!!"
The artillery battalion commander Zhao Chengge gave the order, and the twelve artillery pieces fired immediately. The twelve artillery shells drew beautiful arcs in the dark night sky, as bright and dense as the Leonid meteor shower when it broke out, and then fiercely They hit the remaining bunkers and gun towers of the Japanese army, and some of them hit the houses where they lived.
Obviously, these Japanese troops inherited the arrogance of the Sixth Division. They despised the national army because they believed that the national army could not have such things as artillery, and could not even break through their fire blockade.
For Norio Yamamoto, the squadron leader of the 3rd Squadron directly under the 60th Division of the Japanese Army stationed here, the attack launched by the enemy obviously caught him off guard——
I saw Norio Yamamoto getting up in panic amid the explosion. Before he could get dressed and run out, the whizzing shells hit the surrounding area of his house.
"Enemy attack!! It's a large-scale attack by the Chinese Army!! Send a telegram immediately and report to the division commander!! Immediately!!" Norio Yamamoto shouted miserably. He ran directly towards that area without even putting on his pants. A house with a telegraph machine.
The power of thirty-six shells was not small, and it directly or indirectly overturned most of the buildings of the Japanese army. However, fortunately, the reporting room was not overturned by the shells, perhaps because this reporting room was A building made of reinforced concrete!
Yamamoto Norio knew very well that the enemy forces on the opposite side would not give him too much time. Since they could dispatch artillery to bombard their positions, a large number of troops would continue to follow up. Maybe, the enemy's Maybe the entire 15th Army has already arrived!
More importantly, the burst of fire coverage just now sounded like there were definitely a lot of artillery shells, which proved that the enemy had at least dispatched an artillery battalion!
From the perspective of the Japanese army, the artillery units of the national army are very lacking. Sometimes a corps of the Central Army cannot gather an artillery battalion. At this time, they use the artillery battalion. What does this mean? This means that the enemy is ready to annihilate them in one fell swoop, and there must be a large force following them!
"Squadron leader, how should I write this telegram?" I have to say that the quality of this Japanese telegraph operator is still very high. At least he didn't panic at all and was very calm... Well, after all, he is a veteran of battle. A telegraph operator, he has been in the telecommunications section of the Sixth Division since he landed in the Sixth Division. It can be said that he has seen many strong winds and waves.
"Inform you, the division commander, that we were attacked by the absolute main force of the China Army. They also dispatched the mountain artillery battalion. According to our estimation, it is very likely that the main force of the 15th Group Army of the China Central Army has crossed the Xinqiang River north. Please be ready, Division Commander!" Yamamoto Norio said very quickly, he was afraid that the telegram would be bombed before it was sent.
