The Japanese artillery units originally deployed at Dunwu Temple were to carry out artillery fire from a little bit behind.
However, after their lift-off surveillance balloon was blown up by He Feiyang's rocket, the accuracy of the artillery fire of these Japanese artillery teams was lost.
Therefore, in order to know more about the precise location of the Sichuan Army troops, the artillery battalion commander Hama Masato did not regard the Sichuan Army reconnaissance troops of the 810th Regiment and He Feiyang's troops as the same thing.
He also quickly moved his artillery team to a more forward position and carried out more risky artillery bombardments.
Therefore, it was also because of this that He Feiyang's troops took advantage of the opportunity and carried out a sneak attack during a heavy rain, and succeeded in one fell swoop.
Although this Japanese artillery unit was not completely wiped out, it was successfully killed by the artillery battalion commander Hama Masato, as well as some Japanese artillerymen, and the patrols guarding these Japanese artillery units were annihilated.
After dealing with these Japs, He Feiyang of course quickly evacuated, and also asked his subordinates to evacuate immediately.
Because at this time, the other Japanese troops who occupied the Dunwu Temple had already rushed towards this side in the heavy rain with murderous intent.
If the troops of the 810th Regiment of the Sichuan Army hadn't intercepted them, He Feiyang's troops might not have had the opportunity to sneak over to the Japanese artillery troops so easily and successfully attack them.
The thing is that when He Feiyang and his troops lurked over to the side of the Japanese artillery unit, the reconnaissance unit of the 810th Regiment of the Sichuan Army was bombed by the Japanese artillery and suffered many casualties.
When the few remaining scouts fled, the commander of the 810th Regiment, Xiang Wenbin, who couldn't stand it, immediately led the entire regiment to attack to support and rescue these scouts.
It was also because of this that the Army troops of the Japanese who had been staring at this place rushed towards Xiang Wenbin at the same time. In a short time, the two sides fought the first battle on the battlefield of Dunwu Temple.
It was also because of this that He Feiyang's troops successfully lurked at the Japanese artillery troops without much attention from the Japanese troops, and succeeded in a sneak attack.
And we were able to take advantage of the bad weather, which was raining heavily, to evacuate quickly.
However, when He Feiyang's troops evacuated back to their base, they discovered that Xiang Wenbin's regiment, which had fought a fierce battle with the Japanese troops who occupied Dunwu Temple on the eve of heavy rain, had suffered many casualties from the Sichuan Army.
And the number of injured Sichuan soldiers alone exceeds 200, and they are still recovering from their injuries.
Seeing such a tragic loss, Xiang Wenbin was heartbroken, and he continued to express condolences to his subordinates.
As for himself, he was slightly injured, but with the help of the ambulance team, he bandaged his wounds before he could continue to comfort his subordinates.
Seeing this, He Feiyang also looked at Captain Xiang Wenbin very highly.
But he didn't say anything to the other party, of course because at this time, Captain Xiang Wenbin didn't have the mood or time to talk to He Feiyang and the others.
So He Feiyang also quickly went to count how many of the Sichuan soldiers he brought out survived the killing of the Japanese.
But soon, after He Feiyang counted the number of people who survived, he suddenly felt cold.
He took out 20 people, and when he attacked the Japanese patrol, in order to make it easier to succeed, he sent people back to call in an extra platoon of troops, so a total of 50 Sichuan soldiers were dispatched.
However, after completing the sneak attack, only more than 20 people came back, and they were still injured.
So his mood suddenly became heavy.
His entire company had just entered the battlefield, and already more than 20 people had been killed.
With such huge battle losses, how many times can he lose a company of troops?
When he thought of this, He Feiyang was not happy at all.
He also felt the cruelty of the battlefield during this period, it was simply a flesh and blood mill.
But even so, they still have to continue the night attack tonight.
At the very least, after Commander Xiang Wenbin paid his condolences to the troops, he came over and told He Feiyang that the night attack would not change the time, and would continue to proceed normally in accordance with the orders of his superiors.
However, after giving the combat order, Commander Xiang Wenbin continued to dispatch reconnaissance troops and continued to brave the heavy rain to investigate the situation of the Japanese in the area of Dunwu Temple.
However, because Xiang Wenbin's regiment suffered more casualties, the Sichuan Army troops from the 133rd Division's Regiment and Company were added to the team for this night attack operation.
However, the commander of this company was not Zhang Kang, but an officer named Li Kangda.
In this regard, He Feiyang just took one more look at this supplementary force, and then he continued to think about how to lead his troops to achieve better results and survival rates during night attack operations.
"Everyone must remember that those who can use grenades to defeat the Japs should not be spared by Ge Laozi. Those of you brothers who have fought with the Japs today already know very clearly the Japs' individual combat capabilities, but how many
Strong!"
"So in order for us to survive and to kill more Japs, you must not save grenades for me! There is no need to save rifle bullets either!"
When the time for the night attack was getting closer and closer, He Feiyang was even more serious during dinner, constantly warning the surviving Sichuan soldiers not to save grenades and bullets for me to kill the Japanese.
.
"Yes! Company commander!"
"We will definitely not save it!"
The first person to respond to He Feiyang was Zhang Luo, his close relative.
"Me too!"
"So are we!"
Then other Sichuan soldiers also responded while eating dinner one after another.
Of course, what they said was the truest words in their hearts, because those Sichuan Army soldiers who did not participate in the reconnaissance also knew from those Sichuan Army soldiers who survived how powerful the Japanese's individual combat capabilities were.
They also decisively agreed to He Feiyang's suggestion.
Therefore, many Sichuan Army soldiers took some extra grenades to use in night operations to kill the enemy.
Seeing the Sichuan Army subordinates in front of him who were eating dinner with a heavy heart, He Feiyang also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing his warnings.
So he also started to eat his dinner,
At this moment, everyone was feeling uneasy and nervous, because they didn't know whether they would survive tonight's night attack on the Japanese.
After He Feiyang's men finished their dinner, night had fallen on the earth, but the heavy rain at this time also changed into light rain, and the air became colder.
For those Sichuan Army soldiers who did not have thick clothes to wear, especially those of the 810th Regiment Xiang Wenbin Regiment, they felt the chill.
But even so, they were mentally prepared for a night attack.
Moreover, the reconnaissance troops who went out for the second reconnaissance in the heavy rain had already handed over the reconnaissance results to Commander Xiang Wenbin.
