The loss of the troops also made Sakamoto Shunyi feel troubled, because there was only half of the regiment left in his hand. Is it really necessary to charge with all his strength?
After thinking about it again and again, Sakamoto Shunyi made an extremely bold decision - to use the remaining full-strength brigade to launch a fierce attack on Huangsha Town and seize Huangsha Town at all costs. What he wanted was to engage in street fighting! Only by engaging in street fighting can we minimize our own casualties.
As the saying goes, the greater the pressure, the greater the motivation. For Sakamoto Shunyi, this is absolutely true, otherwise he would never think of using street fighting to delay time.
As the saying goes, everything must be looked at in two parts - previously, the Chinese army used street fighting to kill and injure the enemy, delay the enemy's offensive pace, and consume the Japanese army's time. Likewise, the Japanese army could also use this to achieve their goals.
"Narita-kun, you go to the artillery regiment immediately and tell them that they must give us a fierce bombardment! Tell him that this is the order of the division commander!" Sakamoto Shunyi said sternly.
"But... Your Excellency, Captain, isn't this a false military order?" Adjutant Narita was obviously a little worried.
"This issue is not yours to study! Implement it immediately!" Sakamoto Shunyi said with a serious face. For him, since he wants to achieve this level, if the division commander does not even approve this request, then he is still playing tricks. ? Tell the division commander not to go to Mufu Mountain and fight on his own!
Knowing that this is an iron plate, you still kick, this is the most violent, but there are still conditions.
"Hai!!" Adjutant Narita responded.
…
The camera returns to the national army side.
Zhang Tianhai, who was observing the enemy's movements on Huangsha Town Mountain, was completely unaware that the main force of the Japanese 33rd Division was about to run away. He was still observing the movements of the Japanese army on the opposite side.
"Brother Yinglun, do you think it is possible for the Japanese army to launch another fierce attack?" Zhang Tianyang said proudly. After all, the third regiment responsible for guarding Huangsha Town at this time is the third regiment with the weakest combat effectiveness on paper... …
"Maybe! The Japanese troops on the opposite side may also be thinking about how to break through us!" Li Yinglun said.
"Brother Yinglun, if you were the Japanese commander, what would you do?" With that said, Zhang Tianhai turned his attention to Li Yinglun.
"What else can we do? It's most likely to retreat, right? Or find another way, otherwise, if we continue to fight at this speed, we should be held accountable." As he said this, Li Yinglun smiled.
Speaking of this, Zhang Tianhai suddenly became serious, because he felt that this possibility was not impossible, because along the way, he had set many traps for these little Japanese. If the Japanese army fought all the way, they would have to escape even if they died. Is it really possible for a stupid Japanese commander to be that stupid?
Obviously, the answer is no. Since they can think of it themselves, how come the other party can't think of it? Don't tell me, it's very likely that these little devils can't be defeated, and then they will fight in another direction!
It has to be said that there is something called "coincidence" in the world. Lieutenant General Akasha Jutaro received an order from Okamura Neiji to take the retreat of the 15th Army. Zhang Tianhai thought that he was the one who If the defensive difficulty set by one side is too strong, the Japanese army may run away.
But even so, their directions coincided, because the Japanese troops were really heading towards Mufu Mountain.
"Brother Ying Lun, what you said is entirely possible. Let's take a look at the Japanese army's actions first! If they dare to withdraw, then our troops will immediately launch a full-scale counterattack!" Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice.
Yes, Zhang Tianhai is such a decisive person. In his opinion, if he misses the opportunity because of his hesitation, then he will definitely regret it!
When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue.
Zhang Tianhai is going to take these sixteen-character formulas to their extreme!
"Then wait! The Japanese army shouldn't be moving so fast at this stage, right? They've only been attacking us for two days, haven't they? Although they suffered a big loss, in my personal opinion, they shouldn't have!" Li England shrugged.
"Then it's settled! The Second Guard Regiment has deployed a large number of positions near the Huangsha River. If they counterattack the Japanese army, it is estimated that they will have difficulty clearing the obstacles. If they counterattack, there should be only two battalions of the Third Regiment. Plus our headquarters security battalion." Zhang Tianhai said seriously.
"Indeed, it can only be like this, but this counterattack will have as many as three battalions. If converted to other troops, it will be as many as an infantry regiment. It should be more than enough to pursue the enemy. By then, the cavalry will As soon as the battalion goes into battle, won't everything be settled?" Li Yinglun analyzed.
"Yes, what you said makes sense." Zhang Tianhai nodded. For him, as long as he can make a smooth transition, he has a great chance of winning.
If I had to use one word as a metaphor, it would be a fishing net. Zhang Tianhai had already made a big net and was waiting for the Japanese 33rd Division to dive into it, while the troops he deployed on both sides of Huangsha Town were It is the rope that tightens this big net and is an important part of preventing the Japanese 33rd Division from retreating.
There are advantages, but the disadvantages are also very obvious. For example, if the Japanese 33rd Division escapes, all preparations will be in vain!
…
Time passed by minute by second, and the Japanese army was ready for another fierce attack.
Different from the previous combat plan, the Japanese army used this attack as a desperate bargaining chip, so the attack will be extremely fierce!
Sure enough, amid a fierce and intensive shelling, the Japanese attack began.
Looking at the densely packed Japanese figures on the mountain, Zhang Tianhai couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. He said: "Is the stupid little Japan so ruthless? The second attack will directly involve a full brigade. That’s more than a thousand people, so Huangsha Town doesn’t want these little Japanese?”
"Anyway, if the Japanese army did this, wouldn't it be in line with your previous thinking?" Li Yinglun said with a smile.
"That's true. According to the previous idea, I wanted them to fall into the quagmire of war in Huangsha Town, and then weaken their strength step by step. Looking at the situation now, I still did it too obviously. I was defeated in the first battle. We lost so many of their troops, and now they continue to suffer setbacks, giving them the feeling of being kicked on an iron plate." Zhang Tianhai said with a helpless smile.
"Then the question is, if you were asked to understand again, would you ambush them and strengthen the defense of Huangsha Town?" Li Yinglun asked.
"Of course I will. To be kind to the enemy is to be cruel to yourself. We, the soldiers, must defend our country!" Zhang Tianhai said impassionedly.
"Look, isn't that enough?" Li Yinglun said with a smile.
