Given the opportunity by the Chaoxian Division, Duanwu had to accept these heads.
It's just that the first and second battalions don't have many artillery shells, so it's almost impossible to bombard them as indiscriminately as before.
Without the cover of artillery fire, a forced attack on the Chaoxian Division's position would only increase casualties.
Duanwu fell into thinking, which was his preparation before every battle.
He constantly deduces various tactics in his mind, chooses the one with the highest success rate and the lowest cost of casualties, and then implements it carefully.
And this is also the reason why every battle in the Dragon Boat Festival is handled with ease.
When he was young, Duanwu suddenly opened his eyes and asked: "How many grenades do we have left? I'm talking about wooden handle grenades?"
Zhu Shengzhong said, there should be many more in our battalion, these are the ones that captured the Japanese Japs before. But this is a forest, and even the grenadiers can only throw about fifty meters, so it is impossible to attack them.
Those Chao Xian Japs would shoot even if they heard a sound, let alone seeing a person.
Duanwu said: "Don't worry about these for now. Just tell me how many there are."
Zhu Shengzhong thought for a while and said: "There are two thousand in the whole camp."
At this time, Tang Hu also said: "Our fourth battalion should also have more than 600."
Duanwu said: "That's enough. Gather all these grenades for me, and send me a blasting team. They will blow up the forest with explosives on the left and right sides of the Chaoxian II Japanese position. Let brothers be careful, there are
If necessary, let the machine gunner cover the actions of the demolition team.
In addition, after doing all this, the Fourth Battalion sent two companies to me to ambush behind the Chaoxian Division, that is, on the west side. Once the Chaoxian Division retreated, they would immediately use machine guns to fight me back.
If they risk their lives and charge, then give me a hard beating and let a few escape, it doesn’t matter. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
Zhu Shengzhong and Tang Hu responded at the same time, and then went separately.
At this time, Shangguan Zhibiao said: "Tuanzuo, what do you mean? Is it necessary to charge by blowing up the forest?"
Duanwu smiled and said: "What are you charging for? If you really charge and there is a forest to block it, then it will be a good thing."
Shangguan Zhibiao said in confusion: "Then what do you mean?"
Duanwu smiled and said: "Don't ask, you and I will split up and make some catapults. By the way, sir, do you know what a catapult is?"
Shangguan Zhibiao thought for a moment and said, "I know, it's just..."
Duanwu understood at this time that Shangguan Zhibiao said he knew, but in fact he knew, but it might be difficult for him to realize this knowledge.
So Duanwu said again: "Have you ever seen a slingshot? Just make the slingshot bigger. Let it throw five to six hundred meters, just like a mortar and a grenade. Do you understand this time?"
Shangguan Zhibiao nodded repeatedly: "I understand, I understand."
Duanwu smiled and left first, while Shangguan Zhibiao thought for a while and then went to find a few familiar and clever warriors to study together.
After all, they still have time. At least the demolition team needs to blow up part of the forest.
As a result, the entire supervision team became busy in an instant. The first to take action was the demolition team. Carrying a large amount of TNT and wires, they quietly approached the woods on the side of the Chaoxian Division and fixed the explosives silently.
on the tree, and then connect the leads.
During this period, two Chaoxian Japanese soldiers noticed someone in the forest and fired randomly for a while. However, the enemy did not fire back and had no clear target. After that, their shooting stopped. After all, their ammunition was not picked up in vain.
The little devil is digging at it. Although their Chaoxian division is also equipped with Type 38 rifles, the rifles are all equipment that the little devil has eliminated, and the ammunition provided for the Chaoxian division is also extremely limited.
Each Chao Xian Jap can carry no more than thirty bullets at most.
In the previous battle, some of them were consumed, so these Chao Xian Japs had to live by counting their bullets.
So after firing for a while and finding no one fired back, these Chao Xian Japanese Japs stopped shooting.
The demolition team of the Supervisory Corps also continued to operate at this time, approaching the side of the Chaoxian Division. Explosives were planted under the trees of more than 500 square meters.
Boom! Boom!
With the sound of two violent explosions, the Chaoxian Division's center position and the woods about fifty meters to the left and right were all blown up.
The Chaoxian Japs were slightly panicked when they saw this. Moreover, a large amount of tree branches, dirt, etc. flew to the Chaoxian Japs' position.
After dodging falling branches and dirt, the Chaoxian Japs angrily shot into the forest because they felt that the Chinese wanted to blow up a large amount of dirt and bury them alive.
At the same time, the communications corps also reported this situation to Li Cheng.
But Li Cheng was neither blind nor deaf, so how could he not see and hear the two explosions?
Li Cheng was very surprised, because what was the supervisory team doing by blowing up the forest? Was it for the convenience of charging?
He said to his detachment leader: "The Chinese blasted open the forest in the middle of our defense line. They are most likely planning to charge from that position and split our troops into two. You immediately lead the people to strengthen the defense there.
Fortifications, once the enemy charges, give me a hard blow.
Humph, stupid Chinese, do you think our Chaoxian Division is so easy to be plotted? I have seen through all his plans."
The captain of the team was speechless and thought to himself: Your Excellency, can we stop bragging? I have a detachment, three infantry regiments, an artillery brigade, and a baggage brigade, and now there are only a few people left. Are you still bragging?
What? We are about to be wiped out, do you know?
But how could the captain dare to say that? Moreover, he felt that it was definitely not that simple for the enemy to blow up the forest. It was very likely that the Chinese had a new plan.
However, he couldn't see through this plan at all, and he felt that his trip must be doomed. So he finally said: "Your Excellency, if the battle situation falls into an extremely unfavorable situation, you must retreat quickly. I will do that."
Life, fighting for the last time for you."
"Baga, what are you talking about? We will win, you have to believe me."
Li Cheng cursed in surprise, because as long as they stayed here for two hours, reinforcements would arrive soon. He had already sent a message to Momotaro and explained Kudo Shinichi's plan.
He said that Kudo Shinichi went back to bring in reinforcements, but he seemed to have forgotten that they still had a radio station.
At that time, Momotaro understood it as soon as he heard it. The Ushio-fresh division was ambushed, and Kudo Shinichi sensed something was wrong in advance and ran away, leaving the Shio-fresh division alone to make its final contribution to the Empire of Japan and consume the supervision corps.
of vitality.
So Momotaro also ordered Li Cheng to stay where he was. The imperial army had already set off and would definitely arrive within two hours.
That's why Li Chengcai was so confident at this time that he wanted to confront the supervision team head-on!
