Chapter 1386 The Battle of Changsha (9)
Evacuate? It's too late, but will the army be defeated like a mountain?
If we don’t withdraw, will our troops be ruined? Everything is unknown.
All in all, there are only two roads before Sakamoto Shunyi: either to go forward head-on, or to retreat, but no matter which way, you have to pay a heavy price.
For a time, there was a dilemma between love and hate...
Difficulty in choosing is something that everyone will have, but reality often doesn't give people so much time to think it through - just like now, the national army is heavily reinforcing, and there is not much time for Sakamoto Shunyi. According to this
If this situation continues, his troops will be completely destroyed in half an hour at most!
Thinking of the possibility of committing seppuku, Sakamoto Shunyi was distraught. It took about two minutes before he came to his senses: Rather than letting all the troops die in Huangsha Town, it would be better to withdraw the troops, at least
It would be good to be able to use limited troops on defense, even if it is to defend the rear of the main division.
"Order the troops to retreat immediately!" Sakamoto Shunyi ordered decisively.
"Hai!!" the adjutant next to him shouted.
…
When the fierce battle in Huangsha Town was about to determine the winner, on the way from Tongcheng to Huangsha Town, a sneaky army appeared on both sides of the road.
I saw that the number of this army was not large, probably about two hundred people, but the eyes of these people revealed a refreshing cold light - some people called this divine light "murderous aura"!
If anyone gets closer and takes a closer look, they will definitely find that these people's weapons and equipment are not generally sophisticated: they have basically achieved "one person, two guns" equipment!
Of course, their "double guns" are not the Sichuan Army's "double guns" of "one smoking gun and one rustic gun". They have already achieved a combination of a 38-inch cap and a Zhongzheng rifle.
, or the combination of a 38-gun and a Czech light machine gun, it looks like the combat effectiveness is not very fierce.
That's right, this unit is Zhang Tianhai's special agent company of the 1st Guard Regiment of the 9th Theater Zone!
Under the orders of Zhang Tianhai, the special agent company and others, led by company commander Liu Houming, arrived here a day ago.
Different from the previous swift and violent attacks, these officers and soldiers of the special agent company were very energetic. While they were waiting for the Japanese army to show fatigue, more importantly, they had to detect clearly the number and frequency of the Japanese army's transportation.
and the number of transport troops.
At this time, the secret service company was like a small rattlesnake hiding in the darkness, waiting to bite the behemoth Japanese army when it showed signs of fatigue.
It should be noted that the combat effectiveness of this Japanese army was not very strong in the eyes of the special agent company. The only thing worth considering was how to end the battle as quickly as possible, rather than continuing to fight with the Japanese army.
"Company commander, this little devil transports a lot of times. Every time he transports one truck after another to the front line." The platoon commander said to the company commander Liu Houming.
"What does this mean? It means that the little devils are also in big trouble on the front line... No matter who their opponent is, how can our commander-in-chief be so easy to mess with?" As he said this, Liu Houming's face flashed.
After a period of disdain, he had many battles with the Japanese troops of the 33rd Division. The latter were much weaker than the group of tough bandits of the 6th Division.
Yes, for these tough guys in the special agent company, they position their opponents as the Japanese Sixth Division. Even if it's not good enough, it has to be a standing division, right? As for the 33rd Division
In their opinion, this kind of force that was temporarily formed later was just a lot stronger than the puppet army, nothing more.
"Indeed, our guard troops are near Huangsha Town, but there are three regiments of troops, two of which are reinforcement regiments. With such strength, it would be false if the Japanese army did not encounter a bloody blow." said a platoon leader.
I also agree with Liu Houming’s idea.
"Well...that's true. Then, we should think about how to work next." Liu Houming said with a smile.
"How about... let's wait until the next one arrives and we take action directly? Judging from the previous transportation situation, they are transported once an hour. We have enough time to kill them." A platoon leader was gearing up, obviously full of confidence.
.
"You can do it this way, why not do it this way! After we kill them, we quickly head towards Tongcheng, trying to use the 'opposite approach' in the art of war!" Liu Houming was a straightforward and decisive person, and he decided
What needs to be done is often completed in such a short period of time.
"Understood." The platoon leader next to him nodded.
Then, a melodious sound of birds sounded, and the response of chirping echoed throughout the valley, as if there was a grand scene of the coming of spring and the resurrection of all things.
Yes, this is their method of transmitting information.
…
When the special agent company was preparing to attack the Japanese logistics troops, at the Huangsha Town battlefield on the front line, Sakamoto Shunyi finally accepted the cruel fact that he could not win despite paying a huge price.
"The follow-up troops must rely on the mountain pass to build defensive positions and must resist the enemy's attack!" After issuing the retreat order, Sakamoto Shunyi immediately ordered his remaining troops to fortify themselves in preparation for any changes.
"Hai!!" the junior officers of the Japanese army responded.
Soon, the Japanese troops began to build defensive positions around the Jinzhen Pass of Huangsha Town. Their movements were not ordinary deft.
This scene naturally did not escape Zhang Tianhai's telescope observation.
"This little devil set up defenses directly at the mountain pass. Could he be running away?" Zhang Tianhai frowned slightly.
Zhang Tianhai frowned at the fact that the Japanese troops had begun to withdraw from Huangsha Town: Under normal circumstances, if these little Japanese troops had enough troops, they would definitely reinforce Huangsha Town in order to stabilize the newly captured
The situation in Huangsha Town in the lower half.
"Don't worry, the Japs may have hit a wall here and then retreated or changed their attack route," Li Yinglun said.
"If this is really the case, then you have to be prepared." Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice, "They are like this and still want to run away? They are thinking too much."
"Are we ready to mobilize our two battalions stationed at the top of the mountain to pursue it?" Li Yinglun asked. After all, he had also established the Third Guard Regiment step by step from the beginning, so he still had some expectations.
"What do you think?" Zhang Tianhai put down the telescope and looked at Li Yinglun with bright eyes.
"I personally believe that it is better to mobilize troops sooner rather than later, and take advantage of the Japanese army's unstable foothold to crush the Japanese troops in front of them in one fell swoop." Li Yinglun said solemnly.
"Okay, let's do it!" Zhang Tianhai agreed to Li Yinglun's proposal. In his opinion, the Japanese army's actions at this time proved that the Japanese army was ready. It would be meaningless to wait until the Japanese army ran away before pursuing them.
Ten thousand steps back, even if the Japanese army takes the opportunity to launch a counterattack, even if they abandon Huangsha Town and the positions on both sides, there will still be the Huangsha River position that can withstand it for a while - isn't there the Pingjiang area that can withstand it later?
?Besides, Huangsha Town is only a local area in the huge Pingjiang area. Even if it is lost, it is a normal phenomenon.
But, is this all Zhang Tianhai’s means? Not necessarily!
