Chapter 266 The main attack, the battle for assists
After running out of the village in one breath, they heard the sound of intensive gunfire everywhere, but the two squadron leaders found that it was not safe. When the two wanted to turn around and turn towards Jiamusi, they were temporarily reinforced.
Block the second platoon of the third company of the second brigade's reconnaissance battalion. [.Com text]
At this time, the reconnaissance battalion that had completed the reloading was equipped with all automatic weapons except for some sniper rifles. Although it only had one platoon, the infantry firepower alone was enough to defeat a squadron of the Japanese army.
Although it was a night encounter, in front of these specially trained scouts, half the Japanese guard squadron was unable to even fight back.
The Japanese troops, who were unable to hide from the flares fired by their opponents, resisted desperately and tried to cover the commander's breakout. However, due to the disparity in tactics, the remaining half of the guard squadron around Aozu Kikuro was killed in less than twenty minutes.
There were only about twenty people left.
These Japanese soldiers have never seen such a unit. As long as they fire, even if the firing flame of the Type 38 rifle is very small, it will be accurately captured by the opponent. As long as they fire one round, the opponent will fire back dozens of bullets.
, or even dozens of rounds. From the dense rain of bullets fired back at them by the opponent, these Japanese soldiers even had the feeling that all the opponents used were light machine guns.
Not only is its firepower extremely fierce, its shooting accuracy at night is also quite amazing. Although it is assisted by flares, its shooting accuracy is almost one shot at a time, which even the well-trained Japanese army cannot achieve.
The light machine gun here had just been mounted, and before a few rounds of bullets had been fired, the machine gunner was shot down by the opponent. Even if he could barely keep firing, he was suppressed by the opponent. I don't know where the bullets went.
However, the opponent's three light machine guns fired extremely skillfully, and the resulting crossfire suppressed the Japanese army in a depression outside Junde Village.
Trapped in a small depression, looking at the more than 20 people left around him, he knew that it was very difficult for him to survive today. He didn't know that Captain Iwabe Masao of the 70th Regiment had already broken the record. He didn't want to be the first Japanese soldier to be killed.
The captured officer, Colonel Kikuro Aozu, took out his own gun, put a bullet in his head, and pulled the trigger cleanly.
This time, Colonel Aozu Kikuro, who used a Browning pistol captured in the Kanai battlefield, was lucky enough not to suffer from the problem of his colleagues' pistols failing to fire at critical moments. The sound of intensive rifle machine gun fire was extremely abrupt.
With the crisp sound of a pistol shot, Colonel Aozu Kikuro did not follow in the footsteps of Masao Iwabe who was captured alive and succeeded in killing Naruhito.
After the reconnaissance platoon, which had eliminated the remaining twenty-odd Japanese resistance and rushed into the depression, saw the body of Colonel Aozu Kikuro, the reconnaissance platoon, which was one step late, couldn't help but regret that the duck that was almost in hand had flown away again.
They had already noticed during the desperate resistance of this small group of Japanese troops that there must be important people inside, otherwise they would have had the spare time to attack half a squadron of Japanese troops? With the suicide of Colonel Kikuro Aoshi, the 25th Division
It can be said that the regiment headquarters has been completely destroyed.
It was just annoying, but he was already dead, so he couldn't carry a dead person back, right? The extremely disappointed reconnaissance platoon could only tear off Colonel Qingjin's collar badge, pick up his saber and pistol and go back to report.
At the same time that Liu Changshun attacked Junde, as Junde was ignited by the incendiary bombs fired by the artillery, Liu Changshun's second brigade and three regiments launched an all-out attack, suddenly launching a full-line attack from the flanks of the 24th Division. After daytime
After a day of fierce fighting in the middle of the night, General Shixian, who had finally calmed down, once again erupted into intensive gunfire and shouts of killing.
While Liu Changshun was attacking across the board, Wang Guangyu concentrated all his forces on hand and launched a full-scale counterattack against the 40th Regiment from the front line of General Shi. Although Wang Guangyu's troops suffered too many casualties after several days of fierce fighting, he had not yet replenished the troops.
Before arriving, we could barely gather more than half of the group.
However, Wang Guangyu was very dissatisfied after receiving the order jointly issued by Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun to counterattack from the front to contain some of the troops of the 40th Regiment to support Liu Changshun's battle. Before the battle, Wang Guangyu privately said to several regimental commanders: "
The first brigade has been gnawing its bones these days. After fighting for so many days, the two main regiments combined together only have more than half of the regiment left."
"We have fewer people, but our combat effectiveness has not been lost. Even if I only have more than half of the regiment left, it is still the first brigade. Now let us assist, perform diversionary tasks, and cooperate with their second brigade to attack. Commander, isn't this
Are you looking down on others?"
"Why should I accept Liu Changshun's arrogance? His second brigade is now fully equipped, but do they have the combat effectiveness of our first brigade? Why can we only play assists and let Liu Changshun use our light to go?
Main attack? Assist? I don’t believe in evil, ***, whoever can defeat first will be the main attack."
"You three, don't embarrass me. When the battle starts, don't worry about whether you are the main attacker or not, whether you are assisting or not. Wherever there is gunfire, just let me hit you with all your strength. It's best to tell me that Matsuzaki Rikio's command post is here for me.
.I want to see who is the main attacker?"
Seeing that Wang Guangyu, who has always been steady, has the demeanor of a general, and never uses bad words, actually opened his mouth, shut up, he f*cked up, which frightened several of his subordinates. I thought to myself, what kind of commander-in-chief is this?
What kind of soldier? The normally steady commander starts talking nonsense when fighting begins, and now he, the brigade commander, has become like this.
The regiment commanders were not reluctant to Wang Guangyu's unauthorized deployment of assists into disguised main attacks. If the sky fell, there would be a tall man to support it, and there would be a brigade commander above. Even if the commander got angry, he would not be able to talk about his love. Just follow the brigade's instructions
With this style of play, the troops on hand are really insufficient.
After hesitating for a moment, He Zhishan, the current commander of the First Brigade and the First Regiment of the Jidong Military Region and an old subordinate of Wang Guangyu, opened his mouth and said: "Brigade Commander, we don't have any objections to your deployment. It's just that now we are just being arrogant.
The three regiments of the regiment, the first regiment, and the second regiment together are only one and a half battalions. Even if the guard company and engineer company are added in, the total strength is only seven companies."
"This is just what we can do by counting all the lightly wounded soldiers who can continue to fight, disrupting the original organizational structure, and adding all the soldiers who can still fight to the first-line company. Otherwise, we will have seven companies.
We can't even gather the strength. We have fought too hard these days, and the first and second regiments suffered too many casualties."
"Especially for our regiment, we can hardly form a complete company now, and several companies have been destroyed. How can we compete with the Second Brigade for business with such a small number of troops? If you insist on turning assists into main attacks, the brigade will
If you don’t replenish your troops, we will simply not be able to complete the tasks you have assigned us based on our current strength."
At this point, He Zhishan was silent for a moment and said: "Unless the three existing organic companies of the Third Regiment are transferred out and temporarily organized into a battalion to participate in the war. The Third Regiment is a shelf regiment, and each battalion has a full company, and the others
They are all stand companies, but each stand company also has a fully staffed platoon."
"Although the third regiment is a shelf regiment, its three organic companies are all from the old army. Not only are they strong in combat effectiveness, but their equipment is not inferior to that of the first, second and second regiments. If these three companies are transferred, at least part of them can be
Make up for the lack of military strength."
Wang Guangyu knew these words of He Zhishan very well. As the brigade commander, he still knew how many soldiers he had now and the number of combat casualties in the previous few days. But regarding He Zhishan's suggestion to transfer cadres from the Third Regiment, Wang Guangyu
But he hesitated.
Due to the shortage of supplementary soldiers and the insufficient number of grassroots cadres, although the third regiments of the three brigades are fully trained troops, they are all shelf regiments. Their main daily role is to work with the military region training team to provide training for the third regiment.
Each brigade has trained and qualified junior officers and squad leaders.
The only difference is that the military region training team now trains commanders and political workers above the company level, and the original training functions of squad and platoon-level cadres have been completely transferred to this shelf regiment. The remaining three companies and six platoons' basic armed forces are actually
The platoon leader and squad leader training team are all future cadres in advance. Except for some who need to be transferred to supplement the battle losses of the other two regiments, the rest are also the backbone of the future third regiment.
When it is necessary to expand the troops during wartime, this shelf regiment can use the existing basic troops as the backbone. After adding supplementary troops, it can be directly upgraded to the main regiment. As the first expanded unit among the three infantry brigades, Liu Changshun's second
This is the method adopted by the Sixth Brigade Regiment to directly upgrade from a shelf regiment to a full-formation regiment.
In order to retain a certain backbone in the battle, Yang Zhen has repeatedly emphasized that before this regiment is expanded into an integrated regiment, no matter how critical the situation is or how short the troops are, it is strictly prohibited to be used without approval from the headquarters. Now Yang will be used
Wang Guangyu was somewhat hesitant as Zhen strictly prohibited the unauthorized use of this group.
Seeing Wang Guangyu's slight hesitation, He Zhishan, who knew what he was hesitating about, pondered for a while and said: "Brigade commander, how about this? The three full companies of the third regiment will be left with one platoon to continue to make seeds.
The remaining two platoons were mobilized and organized into two companies to participate in the battle."
After pondering for a while, he realized that he had no idea how to strengthen the first-line company. He only had seven companies including engineers and soldiers. Wang Guangyu, who was obviously lacking in strength, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, just as you said, we will mobilize from the third regiment."
Six platoons were temporarily organized into two companies to strengthen the first regiment and the second regiment respectively."
Speaking of this, Wang Guangyu said to He Zhishan, the leader of the first regiment, and Ma Fengqi, the leader of the second regiment: "But remember, you two, this is my determination at the risk of a big punishment. These two companies
Don't use them lightly until the critical moment. It's better for you two to use them as a reserve team. If you kill these two companies for me, be careful when I come back and I will skin you."
Wang Guangyu's last words were almost squeezed out from between his teeth. After hearing this, the two regiment commanders, who knew that the brigade commander had made great determination, looked at each other and said: "Please don't worry, brigadier commander, we can't guarantee that we won't be able to make it at the most critical moment."
, we will never use these two companies easily."
Regarding the two people's guarantees, Wang Guangyu waved his hands without interest and said: "The commander often said that you can only tell whether a donkey or a horse is on the battlefield. When the general offensive is launched later, you have to give me a good face."
.I took such a big risk and handed over so many future platoon cadres to you. If you mess it up for me, what should I explain to the commander?"
Wang Guangyu risked his love and used part of the troops of the third regiment, which was actually the training team, but the effect achieved was not as simple as just making up for the lack of troops. As the squad platoon cadre training team of the first brigade, these few are all veterans.
The combat effectiveness of the platoon is indeed not comparable to that of the new recruits in the supplementary regiment who have completed full training but are extremely lacking in combat experience. After the first brigade launched the attack, the two companies composed of these platoons almost became old troops.
The Dinghaishenzhen of the first brigade that suffered heavy losses and the fire brigade were transferred there when the attack was blocked. They were also the first to tear open the defense line of the 40th Regiment after being unable to attack for a long time. They changed the assist to
They were the main attacking brigade, and they were responsible for one-third of the success in this counterattack.
Liu Changshun did not even leave a reserve team, and threw all three regiments into the battle at one go. He also devoted all the main forces of the three regiments to the general's stone front line. Wang Guangyu also devoted all his strength to the attack. In the two
He behaved like a mad tiger and attacked with all his might without leaving any room. Naturally, the unlucky one was the Japanese 40th Regiment.
In fact, when Yang Zhen's full-scale counterattack sounded, he never thought about his opponent who had been overwhelmed by his fierce offensive and could only passively defend. Colonel Matsuzaki Rikio, who still had the strength to counterattack in an all-round way, was suddenly blindsided.
Due to the dispute between Hiroshi Nemoto and Colonel Aozu Kikuro, when Yang Zhen launched a comprehensive counterattack in advance, Colonel Matsuzaki Rikio had not received any information from the division.
When the opponent's dense artillery shells hit the battlefields, garrison areas and troop assembly areas of the 40th Regiment, Colonel Matsuzaki Rikio thought that the opponent had launched another tactical counterattack. However, he found that the number of artillery shells falling on his head was getting heavier and heavier.
After getting more intensive, he realized that this was not a tactical counterattack commonly used by his opponents, but a full-scale counterattack.
When Colonel Matsuzaki Rikio, who was in a hurry after being beaten, organized his troops to move to defense on the spot, he found that his position had been messed up by the opponent's large-scale artillery bombardment. In addition to having a telephone line to barely communicate with the artillery, he
Almost all wired and wireless communications with his troops, especially those on the front line, have been cut off. The most critical thing is that all communications with the division and regiment headquarters have been cut off.
Although it has been unable to contact the division headquarters for a long time, communication with the three infantry brigades under it have been interrupted. Except for the wing guard squadron, there are no other troops around. But Colonel Rikio Komatsuzaki is the Japanese Army
The top student from the university did not show any signs of panic.
He is quite confident in his troops. Even if his opponents cut off contact with his superiors, he believes that his brave imperial warriors will still respond to the battle under the command of their respective commanders.
But when he picked up the phone with a calm face and wanted to give a counterattack order to the artillerymen assigned to him, which was also a regiment in size, and he could barely keep in touch at the moment, and had actually started to counterattack on his own, the cannonball on the other end of the phone
The unclear sound of the report amidst the explosion made his face turn pale instantly.
