"The Japanese artillery fire has stopped, all troops, enter the city immediately!!" Lu Shaojie shouted, looking at the darkening sky, he also knew that he must enter the city as soon as possible, otherwise the Japanese army would take advantage of the darkness to build defenses all night If they try to capture the position by that time, the price they have to pay will be high.
"Yes!! Battalion Commander!!"
"Yes, sir!!"
…
Responses came one after another, and the army, which still had more than 700 people left, began to run towards Changle Street as fast as possible.
…
Watching this scene from a distance, Guo Qiliang couldn't help but feel a little worried. He asked Zhang Tianhai next to him: "Old Zhang, the main force of the Japanese army is coming soon. Is it really okay to only send one battalion?"
"Don't worry, I will withdraw the 1st Battalion tonight. The mission of the 1st Battalion now is to withstand the Japanese army's frontal attack!" Zhang Tianhai said decisively, "Now except for the 1st Battalion, if other troops go up, it will be difficult to withstand the Japanese army. Positive pressure!”
"I understand. By the way, which unit are you going to change to tonight?" Guo Qiliang is gearing up. In his opinion, this is another opportunity to show off his skills - with Zhang Tianhai's urine, he can't take back Changle Town. , will these little devils stationed on Changle Street be able to sleep at night?
"Which army can it be? Of course it's the Secret Service Company." Zhang Tianhai smiled softly, "By the way, in addition to the Secret Service Company, let Wang Liang's Sixth Battalion also make preparations. This battalion has been in the army for a long time, so it's time to It’s time to go to the battlefield and see the big scene.”
"Wang Liang? Is that kid okay?" Guo Qiliang was a little doubtful. After all, that guy usually gave people the impression that he was a little unreliable.
"Don't worry! That kid Wang Liang has been a battalion commander for so long, and he still knows the strength of his army. What's more, if he is not trained on the battlefield, how will he become a great person in the future?" Zhang Tianhai He smiled, obviously confident.
"Yes, with the help of the Secret Service Company, the Sixth Battalion's battle will not be so difficult... Besides, now that there is a battalion in front, maybe it is not necessarily possible to recapture Changle Street before dark?" He said. , Guo Qiliang also laughed softly.
Indeed, from this perspective, Wang Liang's Sixth Battalion really does not undertake many major tasks. Their task at night may be to build anti-shell fortifications.
Since the usual combat tasks were basically carried out by the first few battalions, the Sixth Battalion only fought a few battles and suffered more than half of its casualties, but it was basically in a normal training state afterwards. In addition, Zhang Tianhai often asked people from the engineering company to guide each battalion in digging fortifications, so the Sixth Battalion was still competent in this aspect.
In fact, to put it bluntly, Zhang Tianhai also used the Japanese Thirteenth Division as a whetstone - after all, the current Thirteenth Division was repeatedly harassed and attacked by several division-level troops of the Chinese army, and its combat effectiveness was the highest. The powerful Sixth Division has gone to the Laodao River again, and is out of touch with the Thirteenth Division. If we don't work at this time, when will we do it?
While you are sick, I will take your life. This is the best approach.
…
The camera returns to the frontline battlefield.
At this time, the 1st Battalion of the 1st Guard Regiment had entered Changle Street from four directions and exchanged fire with the Japanese troops. It was very lively for a while.
As the general manager, Zhou Fangjie was not idle at this time. He hurriedly sent troops to transport ammunition supplies to the front line. After all, the ammunition consumption of troops equipped with such firepower was definitely an astonishing amount, and because the ammunition supply was insufficient, And losing elite troops is not the style of the security forces.
To be honest, for the national army, Lu Shaojie has habitually overestimated the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, and he has commanded the troops to fight against the Japanese army several times, so he has a clear understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. But for the Japanese troops, it was too difficult——
Because in the early stage of the war of aggression against China, the Japanese Thirteenth Division, except for the difficult battle of Songhu, was fine in other battlefields, because the targets they fought were all Chinese local army units, that is, they The so-called "miscellaneous army".
It is precisely this kind of use of excellent weapons and equipment and excellent quality soldiers to defeat troops that are far inferior to their own strength, which makes them feel more superior and fight more happily.
But that was before, but it's different now. The 58th Regiment has also encountered a tough nut: the opponent not only has excellent soldiers, but its firepower and weapon sophistication are even better than them!
"Reporting to the captain, your Excellency, the attack of the second unit has been frustrated, the attack of the third unit has been frustrated, and the attack of the fifth unit has been frustrated!!" The Japanese lieutenant ran to the captain Ikeda Naganobu and reported.
Yes, in order to balance the existing combat effectiveness of the troops and better utilize their offensive advantages, Naganobu Ikeda specially made a temporary battle formation before the battle began, and in this battle he sent all five combat troops he would become. We went to the battlefield just to fight for the chance to capture Changle Street before dark!
"Baga!!" Naganobu Ikeda cursed angrily, and left two bright red slap marks on the face of the lieutenant in front of him: three of the five combat units were blocked in attack, and the fighting situation of the remaining two units was also poor. If he knows how to hold back his anger in this situation, then there is something wrong.
"Hai!!" The lieutenant dared not say anything in anger, so he immediately lowered his head and responded.
"Order all troops to strengthen the offensive!! I personally stepped forward to supervise the battle!! Tell the commanders of each army that if Changle Street cannot be taken before dark, let them all apologize to His Majesty the Emperor!!" The angry Ikeda Naganobu directly pulled out his waist. The katana in his hand was filled with murderous aura.
Yes, committing seppuku to their dog king is not an empty talk!
Perhaps because they were forced to a dead end by their superiors, these Japanese troops instantly burst out with extremely strong fighting power, even more fearless than the previous attack!
"Report to the battalion commander, the Japanese troops seem to have gone crazy and launched a counterattack against us as if they were desperate for their lives." The battalion staff officer ran to Lu Shaojie and reported.
I thought Lu Shaojie would shrink back, but he didn't.
Lu Shaojie took off his shirt and threw it to the ground. He pulled out the pistol from his waist and cursed angrily: "Damn little devils, do you think you are the only ones who don't want to die? I want to see. Look how desperate you are!"
Upon seeing this, the battalion staff officer directly advised: "Battalion Commander, be careful. You are the commander of the first battalion. If something goes wrong with you, who will command our troops?"
"The brave will win when we meet on a narrow road! If we don't fight much in this battle, how can we fight?! Just do it!" With that said, Lu Shaojie immediately led the battalion security class to come forward to support the battle.
