Chapter 708 This is really not a narrow-minded thing!
Twenty minutes later.
"The firepower of the Chinese is fierce? The attack of the two infantry squadrons was blocked?" Kunizaki received the battle report from the front, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but a trace of relief appeared on his face.
Could it be that he had miscalculated? Are the Chinese really so ferocious that after ambushing most of their infantry regiment, they still had the energy to fight to the death with their two thousand troops?
Yes, Kunizaki was just as Tang Dao thought. After all, he was still unwilling to defeat Maicheng like this, and used two infantry squadrons and an infantry artillery squad to test the determination of the Chinese army.
Whenever he discovers that the Chinese army's defense is not as resolute as fighting to the death, or that the counterattack firepower is no longer as ferocious as the Mouse Mountain, then he will choose to make a last ditch effort and use his current 2,000 men to drag the independent battalion to this mountain.
district.
Even if the Sunzi soldiers from the 36th Infantry Brigade following behind had to crawl, it would take them two days to reach this battlefield.
Once the reinforcements arrive, he will still have a chance to completely annihilate this tenacious Chinese army, and may also reduce his own responsibility for losing troops and generals.
The superior strategy is to suffer heavy losses but ultimately annihilate the enemy forces, or to preserve our strength and watch the Chinese fly away.
But now, apparently, his calculations have failed again.
The whole army can only give up the fat they are about to get and leave here...
No matter how ferocious the Chinese are, the tactics of encirclement will only scatter their troops, and their positions do not have the perfect fortifications of the old Mouse Mountain. Under an all-out assault, the defense line will be broken.
"Order, except for the two infantry squadrons left by the frontline troops to defend the defense line, the other infantry squadrons immediately turned south, gathered all infantry artillery and mountain artillery, and bombarded the Chinese positions blocking our army's advance. After conquering the enemy's positions with all their strength, the entire army moved towards
March in the direction of Guangde, and order Osaka Orikawa to stay in place and block off the area near the highway. Before converging with the main force of our detachment, we are not allowed to rashly go deep into the mountains to look for Chinese troops to fight with them."
When the whole army was given the order to break out, Kunizaki was as stunned as an old man who had just exhausted all his strength on the collapse, and lay languid on his armchair with an extremely ugly face.
The Japanese Army Major General knew that this military order meant that the Kunisaki detachment's laborious expedition spanning more than 2,000 kilometers had ended prematurely.
So far, except for the unlucky kid from the Sixth Division who was defeated at the foot of Matsue Castle, the Imperial Tenth Army's tactics book does not have the designation of the Kunisaki Detachment.
The Imperial Army has regulations that a unit that loses 40% of its strength can basically be considered to have lost combat effectiveness.
The Kunisaki detachment, including those damaged in the battle at Matsue Castle, has far exceeded this standard.
Faced with the sweet fruit of being able to conquer the city in the heart of China, members of the mighty Empire of Japan's "Steel Army" could only watch on the sidelines. How could this make Kunisaki so embarrassed?
But what made Kunizaki, who had gone through thousands of thoughts before finally making a final decision, vomited three liters of blood and found out that he guessed wrong again.
Just when he sent the order to mobilize the army to start moving south, and the detachment headquarters and the two brigade headquarters all left to move to the front line, another news came from the front line.
"Your Excellency, detachment leader, although the Imperial Warriors suffered heavy losses in the first charge, under the cover of artillery, they charged again 15 minutes later. The Chinese could not match the bravery of the Imperial Warriors and abandoned the formation and fled! More than 300 Imperial Warriors have already
Occupying two highlands will cover the departure of our entire army. The empire's military fortunes will be prosperous!" The captain's staff officer who rushed all the way happily reported to Kunisaki and spoke highly of the two infantry squadrons who bravely conquered the highlands.
Obviously, the captain's staff officer was delighted from the inside out to have left so unscathed.
So much so that he ignored the old face of the major general standing opposite him, whose face changed from white to green, then from green to purple, and finally from purple to black.
Really, with that speed of color change, the famous face-changing skills of Sichuan Province can only be beaten.
"Your Excellency, Captain!"
"Your Excellency, detachment leader!" ...
There were exclamations of surprise, but it was the kind of people who watched helplessly as Kunizaki, who was already pale, was as stunned as a log, hitting the mountain with his head and landing on his face.
It is said that middle-aged people have gone through the vicissitudes of life and have become calm about pain and can face it calmly, but they can't stand it when two arms have been chopped off. As a result, the opponent was not satisfied and almost left.
Sprinkled salt on the wound.
Yes, the moment he knew that the two infantry squadrons organized a second charge and rushed to the high ground, Kunisaki knew that he had been tricked again, and was tricked by the cunning Chinese commander who never wanted to mention it again.
The monkey is playing tricks.
What the hell, abandoning the formation and running away, that's a Chinese silver pewter gun tip, there's not much ammunition left to consume.
Even after the battle with Takeuchi Unzan, their troops suffered a lot of losses. Even the troops surrounded from four directions could not exceed 3,000 people!
After thinking about all this, Kunisaki suddenly wanted to give the order again, and the entire army returned to fight the Chinese. However, the army that had already started to move was spread over a square kilometer of the battlefield. How easy would it be to mobilize it?
What's more, without even looking, Kunisaki knew that since the Chinese had seen that their own infantry was mobilizing, they would inevitably carry out tactical movements accordingly. It would probably be more difficult for the infantry who left the position to return to the trenches than when they left.
many.
There was a sudden pain in his heart, and the Japanese army major general's vision went dark and he lost control of his body.
Before he fell into coma, a story description from a Chinese novel miraculously appeared in Kunizaki's mind.
It turns out that people can really be angered to death! Zhou Lang is actually not a narrow-minded person, but the guy named Zhuge is so annoying, just like the guy whose name he still doesn’t know
The same as the Chinese commander.
As for the intelligence, the top officer of the Chinese army opposite was named Tang Dao, a young man in his early 20s who was promoted to an army colonel due to his meritorious service in the Four Elements and One Battle, but His Excellency Kunisaki Zheng was determined not to believe it.
That cliff is an old fox, an old shadow! He has a vicious mind and ruthless means.
No wonder people can almost recall their entire lives in their minds in just one second?
Just by falling down and smashing his nose, Kunizaki slapped Tang Dao with many labels.
Then, the Japanese army major general, whose head was dizzy due to angina pectoris, fainted happily and was stunned by the pain of his face.
However, at least he no longer has to worry about whether to fight or retreat.
The supreme commander unexpectedly gave up his command by bumping his face into the ground. The astonished Lieutenant Colonel and Chief of Staff of the Kunisaki Detachment took over the supreme command. Seeing that his Majesty the Major General Captain of the Detachment was still angry, the Army Lieutenant Colonel was very
He wisely implemented Kunizaki's previous strategy.
The entire army retreats!
The Japanese army just ran away in despair.
This made the tired Chinese soldiers who were covered in stinking sweat and still digging fortifications 700 to 800 meters away were also stunned.
What's going on?
Why don't you fight?
I'm still feeling weak in my heart! Why are you even more timid?
This person and that person are called intelligent creatures at the top of the biological chain. In fact, that is a title given to themselves by humans. To put it bluntly, they still have not escaped the nature of animals.
If it is an animal, it has animal nature.
Just like a wolf, the more fearful the prey is, the more they will attack. On the contrary, if they encounter someone who is not timid, even if it is just a badger that is far smaller than them, they will attack them regardless of their size. As long as they are not about to starve.
If he dies, he will basically give up this hunt.
It is true that the soldiers of the Independent Battalion are elite soldiers, but they are also human beings. As human beings, they have animal nature.
"The Japanese don't seek action! We can't let them run away, chase them!"
"Yes! Platoon leader, give the order! Chase him and fight to death."
Suddenly, countless soldiers began to fight bravely.
"Fight the peat! Just hold your position for me and don't get killed by the Japanese!" Qian Dazhu, who had always been gentle, pointed at the noses of his three platoon leaders and cursed with the curse words that Tang Dao occasionally used.
At this moment, he had more or less figured out the meaning of Tang Dao.
With the current momentum of the decisive battle, the main force of the Japanese army will be scared away!
You are still chasing after them. You really think that the more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers are fooled! Didn't you see that they retreated in an orderly manner? It was not a rout.
Once they were beaten in a hurry, someone came back. The 2nd and 4th companies were fully equipped with ammunition, but the 3rd company only had more than half of the previous ones, let alone the other infantry companies.
Compared to the passionate soldiers, the company commanders were relatively calm and ordered their soldiers not to act rashly.
It was not until more than an hour later that the Japanese troops were far away and the 2nd and 4th companies reoccupied the high ground that the soldiers and civilians of Qinglongling Village withdrew from the isolated ridge.
"After this battle is over, all companies and units will immediately return to the material storage areas to gather and hide!"
Tang Dao's military orders were also transmitted to various ministries.
Not caring about celebrating the victory, the entire army, including Leng Feng, Tong Yibu and all the villagers who came down from Qinglong Ridge, quickly evacuated the battlefield.
