The Japanese attacks come one after another. The terrain of Chenjialing severely restricts the deployment of the Japanese forces. The most suitable size is a squadron, and the limit is a brigade. If it is a group charge of a brigade and the defending side has sufficient firepower, then

Just give someone a head!

Ushijima's brigade has prepared sufficient logistical supplies and sufficient troops this time, so Ushijima has enough patience to fight a positional battle with the independent battalion at Chenjialing, which can be said to be exactly what he wants;

Fighting positional warfare consumes a lot of troops, weapons, and ammunition. He doesn't believe that the Eighth Route Army can survive. In less than two days, the Eighth Route Army will have to fight the Imperial Army with stones!

Ushijima used wheel tactics, only investing one squadron or squad at a time, and occasionally there would be an attack of two squadrons;

He did not imagine that he would break through the position in one go. He fought very patiently and would often shoot at you from dozens of meters away, consuming the ammunition of the Eighth Route Army.

Facts have proved that this tactic is very effective. Ushijima was very proud and said to Chief of Staff Akito Kitahara with some show:

"Kitahara-kun, have you noticed that the Eighth Route Army's firepower is significantly weaker?"

Colonel Kitahara naturally understood the thoughts of His Excellency the brigade commander, so he replied very humorously:

"Your Excellency General's observation is really subtle. Under the attack of the Imperial Army one after another, the Eighth Route Army's strength and weapons consumption are very large. Their ammunition is all captured. The amount of ammunition each soldier can carry can last until now.

It’s already a miracle!

Their mortars were rarely used, and the heavy machine guns only fired a few bursts before stopping. The soldiers were already trying to find ways to pick up the ammunition lost by the fallen warriors of the imperial army.

I suggest that before the imperial army retreats, they must take away all the lost ammunition and leave nothing for the Eighth Route Army, so that they can only consume it without replenishing it!"

Ushijima was very satisfied with what he heard. Kitahara-kun is undoubtedly a qualified chief of staff. He continued Kitahara:

"Yoshi, Kitahara-kun's suggestion is right. The attacking warriors must be instructed to control the distance between the two sides. All the wounded and wounded warriors must be carried back, and a major attack will be launched every two rounds, leaving the Eighth Route Army at a loss."

"The first group attacked for one day and will be replaced by the second group tomorrow. I just want to see how many rounds the Eighth Route Army can withstand us!"

"Hey!"

Beiyuan took the order and left.

At the Chenjialing forward position, the enemy's attack was once again repulsed. They retreated very calmly, covering their lives alternately. They even carried away the corpses of the fallen enemy, and those who couldn't carry them away would also pick up their guns and bullet boxes...

In Chu Xiong's command post, the fifth company commander Wang Tie said to Chu Xiong:

"Battal Commander, look, this group of devils even took away their bullets when they retreated. When they attacked, they kept the distance at 80 meters. It was very slippery!"

After hearing this, Chu Xiong nodded, thinking to himself that these gangsters were pretty cool. Fortunately, he did the whole trick himself, otherwise he really wouldn't have been able to catch this big fish.

"Wang Tie, it's going to be dark soon. Tonight, you lead the fifth company to fight back against the Japanese. The scene must be more realistic. Fire several rounds of mortars to build up momentum. Let the Japanese feel that we have made the final preparations."

The troops are pressing forward, and tomorrow's defense will be weaker each round. We have to play the game of increasing the number of troops and reducing the number of troops, so that the Japanese will see that we are quietly retreating, and we will lure the Japanese to spend a lot of money..."

Wang Tie understood as soon as he heard what the battalion commander said. He was also a veteran of the Red Army before joining the Anti-Japanese War. He was also familiar with the routines of guerrilla warfare to lure the enemy, and he knew how to do it.

"Batalion Commander, just watch. I have experience in dealing with such devils who think they are very smart, and I guarantee to satisfy their desires!"

When Chu Xiong heard this, he knew that Wang Tie had understood. The few people supported by the boss this time were quite cost-effective.

Produced by Kangda, it must be a high-quality product!

"Wang Tie, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll keep an eye on you for a day. I'll take a break. The show will start tomorrow."

After Chu Xiong finished speaking, he leaned back on his chair and went to sleep...

Wang Tie admired this big heart. His classmates all went to other regiments to serve as battalion commanders. Now he is very satisfied as a company commander in the independent battalion. There are 248 people in a company, and he is living the life of a battalion commander.

.

After the Japanese retreated, they did not launch any new attacks until dark. The day's battle ended successfully. The four companies fought for a whole day. The casualties were not huge, but the ammunition was really consumed. The Japanese's goal was achieved.

The Japanese attacked for a day and suffered more than 300 casualties. Since the shots were fired at each other from long distances and the Sanba Gai had strong penetrating power, only more than 150 people were actually shot to pieces, which was within the tolerance of Major General Ushijima.

In this day's battle, both sides were very satisfied and each got what they needed!

While the Japanese were attacking with a small force, others were digging earthworks, and the trees around them were almost cut down. Before dark, their camp had been set up, a standard circular fortification, and they wanted to attack them at night.

It will definitely hit the iron plate. This is the tactical quality of the field team.

"Kitahara-kun, in your opinion, will the Eighth Route Army come for a sneak attack at night?"

Major General Ushijima, who was in a good mood, took the exam to become his chief of staff again, showing off his foresight.

"Your Excellency, General, the Eighth Route Army has always been good at night attacks, and in the end, a defensive battle cannot be defended by pure defense alone. And our opponent Chu Xiong is a master of tactics. I judged from my humble position that they should launch a night attack, but I didn't know them.

What kind of trick could he pull?"

After hearing this, Ushijima nodded with satisfaction and continued:

"Kitahara-kun, the methods of military strategists are ever-changing, but in the final analysis they are nothing more than the right and the strange;

Winning with the right combination and winning by surprise does not mean that a surprise will definitely lead to victory, but because the weaker party can only have a chance to win by taking risks!

In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are in vain. The imperial army belongs to the superior side. We have absolute strength. We don't need to pay attention to their strange moves and strange moves. We can just defend the camp. The eight-pronged sneak attack can only be carried out with

Just blast them away with machine guns and artillery. As long as the imperial army’s position remains stable, any tricks Chu Xiong plays at night will be useless!”

"Your Excellency, General, you have learned from your humble position. It is really sad for Chuxiong to meet you. To use a Chinese saying:

If there is Yu, how can one be bright?"

Kitahara's words scratched Ushijima's itch. Ushijima had always regarded himself as a Confucian general. He felt comfortable hearing these words and couldn't help but laugh. He was quite Zhugezi, all he needed was a feather fan.

At three o'clock in the morning, perhaps in order to cooperate with Major General Ushijima's resourcefulness, the Eighth Route Army's night attack came as scheduled, and everything was under the control of the old Japanese man Ushijima.

This time the Eighth Route Army's night attack was very fierce, and the mortars that had been hidden were also used. Ushijima listened briefly and found that there were more than ten, which was enough for an artillery squadron...

"Jun Chu Xiong, you can't help it anymore, right? I want to see what other tricks you can come up with!"
