The commander of the Kawamoto Division commanded the Japanese and puppet troops to attack Zhencheng. He was helpless and very afraid of Xu Dalong. What's more, he was only responsible for a feint attack now and had insufficient troops. Kawamoto was worried that Xu Dalong would see through the true intentions of the Japanese army and attack him.
Fight back with all your strength.
Therefore, Kawamoto was extremely careful during the operation. He not only sent puppet troops to lead the battle, but also sent many surveillance posts in front of the marching brigade.
After the death of Tanaka, the former director of the Special High School Section in Kuala Lumpur, Sasato, a Japanese military officer, took over his position. The new officer took office with three firepowers. In order to show his talents in front of Kawamoto, he personally organized a large number of military police and pseudo-police to serve as the Japanese army's
The marching brigade was inquiring about information at the front. This method was very effective. Xu Dalong wanted to command the troops to ambush the Japanese army, but it was already difficult to do so.
In order to deal with the surveillance posts sent by the Japanese and puppets, Xu Dalong naturally had a way. He sent a group of special forces members to form a combat team with guerrillas who were familiar with the local situation. They monitored the movements of the Japanese and puppet troops in front of the main guerrilla force.
At the same time, we eliminate the spies sent by the enemy. When the members of the combat team find suspicious persons, they will form a battle formation and surround them. When they encounter resistance, they will besiege and annihilate them.
When the identity of the visitor cannot be determined, he will be detained. If his home is nearby, he will be detained to verify his identity; if he comes from other places, he will be detained and released after the counter-mopping campaign is over.
.
This method was very effective. A large number of spies sent by the Japanese army were eliminated, which greatly weakened the concealment of the operation.
Xu Dalong originally judged that the number of troops sent by the Japanese army to retreat and feign an attack was small, so I sent a small group of surveillance posts to retreat and verify. After grasping the strength of the Japanese and puppet troops, Xu Dalong became determined to concentrate on defeating those responsible for the feint attack first.
Japanese and puppet troops on mission.
The smallest establishment of the Malaysian puppet army is the independent brigades, with a total of seven. The other establishment of the puppet army is the security regiment of each security district, responsible for local security. The seven independent brigades form the main force of the Malaysian puppet army.
The 1st Independent Brigade of the Huang Xiejun stationed in Kuala Lumpur was later the servant army of the British Army in Malaysia. That unit has been established for a long time, has few veterans, poor training, and weak combat effectiveness. The commander of the 1st Independent Brigade
Jalan is a Malaysian, and the rest of my main officers are also Malaysians. In order to weaken the control of the independent brigade, the Japanese army sent a Japanese soldier Dozo to serve as the instructor of the first independent brigade. I don’t have a military police unit on hand.
Used to monitor the retreat of puppet troops.
Although the Japanese military commander Tatsusa Igawa is just a Tatsusa, he actually holds the command of the independent 1st Brigade. I am a military policeman and only have basic military knowledge. I am a layman when it comes to combat command. But that guy
Quan Quan Yu was extremely weak. He looked down upon the Malaysians and completely ignored the Malaysian commanders of the Independent First Brigade.
When Jalan thought about having to fight against such an opponent, Jalan's heart was pounding.
The more I thought about it, the more excited I became. When I was explaining my combat deployment, I was beaming with joy and saliva was flying everywhere.
That time, Yichuan did not have the opportunity to control a small force like the First Independent Brigade to fight against the guerrillas. I felt that it was a small opportunity for me to make contributions and show my talents. I was determined to seize that opportunity and fight against the guerrillas.
A beautiful battle allows subordinates to see their talents and realize their wish to take charge of a field force.
When Yi Chuan conceived that plan, he was very much looking forward to the success of that operation, and surrounded the organs of the guerrilla corps and the Zheng Committee of the Anti-Japanese Army outside the city. By then, Xu Dalong and Mr. Chen would also become turtles in the urn.
In order to show my authority, I also pulled out my command knife and slashed it hard under the table. The quality of the table was still very bad, but the knife actually hit a corner of the table.
Unexpectedly, the battle meeting had just ended, and the self-righteous Ikawa Tasaku proposed my battle plan.
Jalan and these main officers all felt that Yichuan was not wishful thinking. I had not figured out the true strength of the guerrillas and was blindly confident after the combat deployment. That was not treating others as fools. Xu Dalong was so unknown,
It may be that difficult to deal with.
Yichuan acted arbitrarily outside the First Independent Brigade, which made the officers and soldiers very satisfied with me. Although we were very respectful to me on the surface, we were very contemptuous of me behind the scenes.
Jalan's first feeling was that he was definitely Xu Dalong's opponent. Therefore, I warned myself and the main officers in my hands to be more cautious in the current battles and to relax our vigilance at any time, especially
If you can be greedy for merit and risk retreat, you can avoid being fooled by the army.
The commander of the Kawamoto Division once downplayed that the battle was just a feint attack, but Yichuan believed that Kawamoto was too cautious. With so few Japanese and puppet troops, he simply went out of his way to directly eliminate the guerrillas, and it was just a feint attack.
Trick. So I decided to follow the Independent First Brigade and take it directly to Watanabe, severely inflict heavy damage on the guerrillas, and show off my military commanding talents in front of the commander of the Kawamoto Division.
Before the 1st Independent Brigade received the task of leading the charge, a combat meeting was held.
That was a very small shock to Jalan. I knew how weak the Major Regiment was in combat. When I was serving in the British army, I was not captured by the Major Regiment. Xiang Junqun was actually able to command equipment and train.
The guerrillas, who were all very backward, devoured the Major's Regiment, which was armed to the teeth. I remember when my troops cooperated with the British army to fight against the Major's Regiment. At that time, our troops had less than 17,000 people. It was the Major who
The regiment was several times worse. But the final result was that we were defeated and became prisoners of the Major's regiment.
At this time, Yi Chuan was dazzled by the idea of making a contribution. In my opinion, the guerrillas were vulnerable to a single blow, and there was no problem in taking Watanabe with the strength of the Independent First Brigade.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yichuan's combat deployment is to use the brigade headquarters team of the independent first brigade plus the front office of the agency, add a puppet army company, and march to the front with little fanfare.
The troops retreated in the direction of Watanabe to attract the attention of the guerrillas. The first and seventh regiments of the puppet army of the first brigade used concealment at night to suddenly surround the advancing army and cut off the guerrillas' approach. They waited until the independent first brigade
Before the brigade headquarters arrived, they captured Watanabe and annihilated the guerrillas and the headquarters of the Zheng Committee of the Malaysian Anti-Japanese Army.
I think it is necessary to use a surprise attack to surround Watanabe, allowing Xu Dalong, Mr. Chen, the guerrilla corps and the Zheng Committee of the Anti-Japanese Army outside the army to escape in time, and then annihilate them. That is
Only with real merit can you realize your dreams.
Jalan, the commander of the 1st Independent Brigade, is 45 years old and is of mixed British and Malaysian descent. I joined the British Army in my early years and served as the commander of the Malaysian Servant Army. I also studied at the Huang Family Military Academy of the British Army.
Lan cannot be said to be a commander with high qualifications and rich combat experience.
Faced with Yichuan's threat, no one among the puppet army officers dared to say anything, and they all expressed their firm obedience to orders.
Yi Chuan believed that he did not have outstanding military commanding talents, and he hoped that he could serve as a chief officer in the regular army, make contributions, and honor his ancestors. Unfortunately, I belong to the military police system. Under abnormal circumstances, there is no such opportunity.
The commander of the Kawamoto Division later commanded the troops to retreat to Watanabe. Before the battle was over, I made two major mistakes. The first mistake was not that I thought I was stupid. I thought that Xu Dalong’s judgment was between myself and the mountain.
Following the strategy decided by Wen, Kawamoto judged that the army group could only take a defensive position against the retreat of the troops commanded by the Japanese army, and was even forced to abandon the base and move into the mountains. This was also the main strategy adopted by the special guerrillas when facing the Japanese army.
Strategy. The seventh mistake I made was not to send puppet troops to lead the battle in order to prevent the Japanese army from suffering losses.
Jalan thought that there was no more risk, and said after careful consideration: "Your Majesty, the battle plan you made is very bad and uncreative. But Xu Dalong's tricks are too simple. I'm sure if we divide our troops into eight groups, there will be no small risk.
.
Thinking of that, I said flatly: "Retreat according to the arrangements you made. That is an order. No one will dare to obey, and we will kill without mercy."
During the march, they tried to go as fast as possible to avoid being too far away from the main force of the Japanese army in front. During the march, they should send fewer guard posts and place them farther away to prevent being attacked by the guerrillas.
There is an ambush. The walkie-talkie machine must be kept in a talking state at all times, and any situation will be reported in a timely manner.”
Jalan was so scolded that his head was dripping with anger. He was so angry that he really wanted to go down and give Yichuan a slap in the face. Unfortunately, I am a slut from the island country now, and I can only be submissive in front of Yichuan. Seeing Yichuan, I accept it.
Regarding my own suggestion, I knew it would be useless to talk about it any more, so I kept silent.
Although the first brigade sent by Kawamoto had the weakest combat effectiveness among the puppet troops, he ignored that the commander Ikawa was a little idiot. That meant I would suffer a small loss as soon as the battle started.
When the Japanese army retreated from Malaysia, I was the commander of a regiment of the British Servant Army. When the British army was defeated and surrendered, I became a prisoner. I came to accept the appointment of the Japanese army and served as the brigade commander of the First Independent Brigade.
Since the Xiangjun group was far away in China, Jalan didn't pay much attention to me. Ever since Xu Dalong retreated to Malaysia and commanded the guerrillas to fight several beautiful battles, Jalan stopped paying attention to Xu Dalong. When I collected information about Xu Dalong
Before collecting the information, I discovered that Xu Dalong was actually so unknown and an extremely difficult character to deal with.
Ikawa Tatsuo was very confident and talked about his combat plan. After hearing this, the officers of the first brigade looked at each other and frowned.
Jalan also felt very helpless. My military rank was Duojiang, and Yichuan was just a Duozuo. However, my Duojiang brigade commander was in charge of the affairs of the first brigade. It was really a bad feeling to give others the feeling of being a bitch.
.
Yichuan believed that he currently did not have an independent first brigade with more than 5,500 troops. He was short of two regiments of small Japanese troops holding the front. Xu Dalong relied on a ragtag group of guerrillas and a weak battalion.
What can the Yunnan Army do to me?
Now he doesn't have a brigade, 5,000 troops or horses, and he doesn't have the equipment provided by the Yellow Army to be the first to retreat. Facing a ragtag group like the guerrillas, he is so bold. He is nothing short of useless."
I must have captured those two important figures. I, Yichuan, will become famous in one battle and will soon become the most dazzling star in the Japanese army.
The commander of the Kawamoto Division ordered us to just feign an attack to contain the main force of the enemy. It seems that it is not necessary for the troops to move separately. I suggest that the whole brigade should move together, which will be more effective. As for the battle plan you formulated,
Wait until there is no chance in the previous stage before implementing it.”
Yichuan once served as the captain of the gendarmerie in the Seventh Public Security District. He fought with the guerrillas and took advantage of them. He even completely wiped out a local guerrilla group and received a commendation from his superiors. I was transferred because of this.
He worked as a staff officer in the division organization, and then was sent to the 1st Independent Brigade as an instructor.
Jalan didn't speak very carefully and tried to give Yichuan face as much as possible, but occasionally Yichuan accepted it since he was a child.
It is precisely because Yichuan is unfamiliar with the guerrillas that he simply ignores the guerrillas. He also believes that the guerrillas led by Xu Dalong are responsible for something. As for why the entire army of the Major Regiment was destroyed, it is because Xu Dalong obtained
Without the help of regular troops such as the Yunnan Army, the most important thing was the ability of Xiang Jun's command.
With that mentality in mind, I discussed with the main officers and worked out a relatively safe marching battle plan, which I prepared to submit to Ikawa Tasaku.
What Yichuan is most worried about is not that the First Independent Brigade will attack Watanabe openly, but that Xiang Junqun, Mr. Chen and others, as well as our command organization, will evacuate Watanabe and flee into the mountains. In this case, if he wants to make contributions and stand out, he only needs to
Relying on the merits of Watanabe is simply enough.
Jalan said helplessly: "We have no way to go out, we just don't obey the orders of the islanders. But please be careful, take out a company from each of the first and seventh regiments, and add the weak brigade."
The security work of the agency.
Jalan, the independent brigade commander, returned to his office. Seeing Yichuan walking away, other officers quietly came over to express our concerns to the brigade commander. We believed that Yichuan was blind since he was a child, and he knew both himself and his enemy.
Based on wishful thinking, we hastily made combat arrangements. We all suspected that Xiang Junqun would think that it would be impossible to pull off that move in Yichuan, and also thought that the first brigade could deal with the guerrillas under Xu Dalong's command. After all,
The weak Japanese 19th Regiment was all eaten up by others. Do you really know where that idiot Yichuan got his confidence?
I roared and said: "Sigayalu, he is not a coward. When you were the captain of the military police, you only had dozens of Yellow Army warriors and up to 200 Yellow Army guard troops, and you wiped out many of them.
