Chapter 277 Counterattack
"Soldiers!" After visiting the soldiers injured in the war, Villet stood among the American soldiers at around 8 o'clock and said with his head held high and his chest held high: "You are the heroes of the United States and the pride of the United States! Look... the place where we are standing is still the Japanese position for a few hours. Now they have been driven away by us! Of course, some of them have not run away, but they have become corpses!"
The American soldiers cooperated and burst into laughter.
After pausing, Vilit continued, "Look! You proved with your actions that you are not easy to mess with. You are not inferior to the Chinese team at all. Of course, you will not be worse than any army in the world. In fact, as long as we are given a goal, we can conquer and defeat any opponent..."
Just as Vilit delivered a passionate speech to the US soldiers, the Japanese army took action.
Regarding this attack time, Kimura Hiroji and Nakatani Kawakami had a less intense debate.
~No~Wrong~Little~Say~"Colonel!" Kimura Hiroji said to Nakatani Kawakami: "I think we should launch an attack after midnight, because as we all know, this is the time when the enemy sleeps the most well, and it is also the time when they are most wary!"
"I don't think so!" Nakatani Kawakami replied: "Kun Kimura, do you know that the American has just changed commander? Do you know who the American's new commander is? Do you know what nickname he has?"
Hearing this, Hiroshi Kimura was stunned. He really didn't know this.
Seeing Hiroji Kimura's appearance, Nakatanikawa's lips smugly rose... He knew early in the morning that Hiroji Kimura wanted to climb onto his head, and he was ready to give this Hiroji Kimura a warning.
As for what preparations are... in fact, it is just to capture a US captive and then interrogate some information from him.
"The commander of the American ghost beast is called Vilit!" Nakatani Kawakami continued: "His nickname is 'Strict Smith', which means that this commander is very strict. So... Kimura-kun, it can be imagined that under the command of Vilit, the Americans will probably do every job meticulously by midnight, which is obviously not good for us!"
"But..." Hearing this, Hiroshi Kimura was already a little exhausted, or he was caught off guard, but Hiroshi Kimura still said in a disrespectful way: "If this American commander... is as strict as the Colonel said, then Americans will be prepared at around 8 o'clock, right? And most Americans were not asleep at that time, which is not even more unfavorable to us?"
"No! This is good for us!" Nakatani Kawakami shook his head: "First of all, the Americans will think they have won, so they are likely to choose to celebrate this period of time, that is, when the war comes to an end! At this time, their alert is the most relaxed. Secondly, we are attacking from the inside of the American defense line, and the more likely it is to cause their chaos! More importantly,..."
Speaking of this, Nakatani Kawakami said a few words in a low voice with Kimura Hiroji's ear attached to it.
Hearing this, Hiroshi Kimura nodded in conscience and responded: "Yes, everything follows the arrangements of Your Excellency Colonel!"
In fact, what Nakatani Kawakami said was not a clever trick, but a tactic that the Japanese had used many times, that is, disguise and infiltration.
But there is a saying on the battlefield: "No matter how old or stupid the method is, as long as it is useful, then it is the best method!"
What's more, the tactical method of "disguise and infiltration" proposed by Nakatani Kawakawa is strictly neither old nor stupid. The reason is that all the conditions of the Japanese army were very suitable for "disguise and infiltration".
The first condition is of course that many Japanese troops are hiding in tunnels in areas occupied by the US military, and the US military does not even know about it. In other words, as long as the Japanese army emerges from the tunnel, they can actually launch infiltration wars.
The second condition is that at this time, Japan's opponent was the Sino-US coalition, which means there were Chinese and American coalition. Although most of the Chinese teams and the US teams were separated... but in fact they were not completely separated. Although the defense zone of the Chinese troops was in "Wolf Corner", the US military's combat required continuous transportation of ammunition and supplies from the "Wolf Corner". Therefore, the US engineers rushed back and forth between the defense zones of the two. Even because the US military engineers had insufficient capacity, some Chinese soldiers were also helping with transportation.
The third condition is that the language between China and the United States is not connected, and it is still in the dark.
So this gave the Japanese army a good opportunity, a chance to infiltrate the US army even when disguised as a Chinese team.
In fact, it should be said that Nakatani Kawakami is still a little less courageous... If he thought not only infiltrates the US military but also infiltrates the Chinese troops, he might achieve greater results.
But Nakatani Kawakami was captured by the reputation of the Chinese team. He knew that the Chinese team was not easy to mess with. On the other hand, the Japanese looked like a Japanese and could only disguise themselves as Chinese, which was easy to be seen through by the Chinese, so Nakatani Kawakami gave up this idea.
What Nakatani Kawakami thought was to implement Koga Feng's "defense and counterattack" strategy, and to try to block the enemy's attack speed during the day, and to launch a counterattack at night, compress the enemy's space and even drive the enemy into the sea.
Nakatani Kawakami felt that it was possible to compress the enemy's space because he felt that there would be no big problem with the Americans in close combat. But driving the enemy into the sea... This would have to face the Chinese troops that made him very afraid of.
Although he could be said to have only fought with the Chinese troops once, this time it caught them off guard when the Chinese troops landed... Regarding this battle, Nakatani Kawakawa said to his subordinates: "This battle was because the Chinese troops took advantage of landing with a "harvester". This was something that the Japanese army did not expect. Under normal circumstances, the Japanese army could undoubtedly defeat the Chinese team!"
But in fact, Nakatani Kawakami knew that these words were just to comfort his subordinates. Seeing the Chinese troops chasing and fighting hard behind the Japanese army, Nakatani Kawakami only thought of a word he learned from Chinese history books: "The Tiger and Wolf Army!"
(Note: During World War II, many Japanese officers had studied Chinese history and military tactics.)
Therefore, Nakatani Kawakami's goal for this battle is to seize the chaos on the basis of compressing the enemy's space, that is, defeating the US military. Of course, it would be even better if the Chinese troops could be defeated and the Sino-US coalition forces were driven into the sea!
