"I want you to solve the Japanese tank division confronting us and their defense line. Is it difficult?" Zhao Zhi didn't have time to tell Tang Lei in detail. Zhao Zhi, who was eager to end the battle, could only place all his hopes on Tang Lei and him
The Qingfeng army, otherwise the Kwantung Army who went south would control Jiaodong, and the retreat between him and his subordinates would be gone. It is obviously inappropriate to use the small Jeju Island as a battlefield for rushing and moving around. Kyushu Island is good.
If you can control the entire Kyushu Island, Zhao Zhi and his subordinates have sufficient space to fight against the Japanese army.
Tang Lei doesn't say much, but now he doesn't like talking to Zhao Zhi. After carefully observing the surrounding terrain with a telescope, Tang Lei took out his own wind measurement tool to test the wind direction and speed. He discussed with his team members in a low voice
Afterwards, Tang Lei gave Zhao Zhi a positive answer, "If you want to solve the other party at one time, you can't do it at all. At most, we can solve their peripheral positions. If the attack is put down at night, we will also do it for our own people.
It causes some trouble, but you can try our smoky cartridges."
The defense lines of the 20th Division and the 6th Division were not the three-dimensional defense structure commonly used by the Japanese army, especially the defense lines arranged by the rebuilt 6th Division were even more chaotic, and even Zhao Zhi couldn't understand them. The Japanese army that was several kilometers long
The defense line cannot be easily broken through and disintegrated by Tang Lei's Qingfeng troops. Unless Zhao Zhi has a way to send all the poisonous gas bombs brought by Qingfeng troops into the Japanese positions at one time, everything will be empty talk. Using the mysterious smoke will be used.
It is completely different. As long as the main attacking troops take the antidote, the smoke will have no effect on them at all and will not affect their normal combat at all.
"Then use the Michikaku cartridge to break through their peripheral defense line. I will leave the rest to others. Just do your own thing." Tang Lei's answer somewhat frustrated Zhao Zhi, but he knew that Tang
Lei is talking about the truth. Even if you use the mustard seed poison gas brought back from Germany, it may be difficult to achieve the expected results in your heart. Zhao Zhi has already planned to use poison gas to attack, and the combat deployment has been formulated naturally needs to be adjusted, but Zhao Zhi has not
Instead of ranking the mixed troops in the second line, the mixed troops were still ranking the attacking forward.
The number of people is the biggest reliance of mixed troops. The 20th Division and the 6th Division plus the subsequent tank divisions, the total Japanese army's total strength exceeded 40,000, while the total number of troops deployed by Zhao Zhi here was nearly 10,000.
A one-to-five comparison of troops is Zhao Zhi’s greatest reliance. As long as the smoke released by Qingfeng’s troops can stop or affect the attack of the Japanese tank division, Zhao Zhi will be sure to defeat the other side.
"The Kwantung Army has drawn elite divisions to fight south. The 74th Army and the Youth Army, as our backing, have been fighting with them. As the subsequent Kwantung Army troops continue to move south, they are likely to end up being surrounded by the Kwantung Army.
"Zhao Zhi, who convened a meeting of officers under his command, looked up and then continued, "The National Government means that we hope that the Second Jewish Legion in Xingtai will rescue the Youth Army, which means that we do not have
Enough troops resist Kanto troops that may continue to move south.”
The pen in Zhao Zhi's hand drew a big arrow on the map, "The empty force of Shandong will lead to the Kwantung Army going south attacking Jiaodong, and the loss of Jiaodong means that our retreat is broken, and there are only two in front of us.
The road, either stay on Kyushu Island and fight with the Japanese troops who are swarming to the last moment, or retreat to Myanmar early to avoid being trapped. I am naturally unwilling to withdraw from Myanmar now. In order to land on the Japanese mainland, we have made efforts.
There are too many, so we need to make a choice now. It is four o'clock in the afternoon, and by this time tomorrow, I hope to defeat the Japanese troops confronting us on the whole line.”
Thunder officers have long been used to following Zhao Zhi's orders, but what Zhao Zhi said just now still made the officers attending the meeting straight. It is not the first time that Thunder defeated or annihilated the Japanese division.
But now the Japanese army that was in a confrontation with them had two infantry divisions and one tank division, fighting with three divisions at the same time. This was the first time in the history of Thunder, not to mention that Zhao Zhi asked to be within 24 hours.
If they had not known Zhao Zhi's methods to defeat these three Japanese divisions, they might have treated Zhao Zhi as a psychopath.
"I know this battle will be difficult, but we have no other choice. Controlling Kyushu Island as soon as possible is very important for our next combat deployment, so I ask you to use all your combat power to deal with this battle."
Zhao Zhi took another map handed over by Ye Kong and spread it on the table, carefully explaining his deployment to the officers present, "Tang Lei's Qingfeng troops began to release the smoke attack three hours after nightfall, and in their
After the outer defense line collapses or breaks, all mixed troops launch an assault."
"The mercenary squad equipped with night vision devices is specialized in dealing with their tank troops. If you want to defeat the Japanese army on the opposite side, it is crucial to first dismantle their tank troops. This is very important. There is no reserve team in this battle and no additional support.
The troops, including me, have to be involved in the attack. All we can rely on is airdrop supplies after dawn. Before that, everything can only be solved by ourselves."
In addition to the mercenary troops sent to Kagoshima and the sporadic mercenary scattered throughout Kyushu Island to clear out the resistance armed forces, Zhao Zhi had only 6,000 Thunder mercenaries around him, including 500 brought by Zhang Jinquan.
mercenary snipers, they are useless in night combat. They originally wanted to use Thor machine gun group to oppose the Japanese army's plan to abort, but Zhao Zhi did not intend to give up on the idea of using Thor, perhaps in the assault battle,
The Thor machine gun with strong firepower will be a good choice.
"While the mixed troops were attacking, all the light and heavy machine guns in our hands were placed in the second attack echelon, and the Thor machine gun was placed on our two wings. When the mixed troops attacked, firepower suppression was implemented on the Japanese defense line,
Use strong firepower to force them to concentrate in the middle, so as to achieve the possibility of defeating them on the whole line." If Zhao Zhi wins this battle, he can still regain ammunition supplies from the airdrop. If he can't win, there is no need to bring these ammunition back to Myanmar
go.
This is a battle that determines the future of Thunder, and it is of great importance. Of course, Zhao Zhi also needs to seek the opinions of his officers. Like most officers, Qiao Mulin, who is in the battle planner, has his own concerns. "Sir, let's mess around.
Is it wrong to rank the troops in the position of the attacking striker? Those guys are just mobs in the final analysis, and the Japanese army cannot stand there waiting for their heads to be cut off. I am afraid that once the mixed troops encounter the strong counterattack of the Japanese army.
, there may be retreating or confusion, so the attack formation we set behind them may be dispersed by them."
Everyone here understands the gap between cold weapons and hot weapons. Zhao Zhi used the Japanese weapons he seized in advance to equip some mixed soldiers, but for 400,000 mixed soldiers, that little weapon is simply
It's just a drop in the bucket. Facing the Japanese army of three divisions, most of Zhao Zhi's officers did not think that the mixed troops could break through the opponent's defense line by launching a full-line attack. Even Tang Lei's Qingfeng troops took action, because the thickness of the Japanese defense line was real
Surprisingly.
Zhao Zhi was obviously considering this issue. After pondering for a while, Zhao Zhi drew a big plane on the blackboard of the battle situation analysis. "Airplane, while the mixed troops launched an attack, we mobilized all the planes in our hands to fight against the Japanese army.
The position carried out air strikes, but the time for our attack needs to be postponed until dawn, otherwise our pilots would not find the target of the bombing." Zhao Zhi said suddenly and stopped halfway. After a moment of pause, Zhao Zhi had a new one
The idea.
"Maybe our attack time does not need to be changed until dawn. After the fighter unit takes off, we can use mortars to launch incendiary bombs into the Japanese position and use flames to guide the bombing of the fighter unit as a target. The Japanese army was panicked.
At that time, it was Qingfeng troops who released Miyan and mixed troops to attack the entire line." Zhao Zhi marked a few points in the area representing the Japanese defense line. It was obvious that he set these points as mixed troops
Break through the attack point of the Japanese defense line.
"After night, the mercenary troops carried mortars and small incendiary bombs to the periphery of the Japanese defense line. After three hours of night, they carried out a burning attack on the Japanese defense line to guide the fighter troops. Then the Qingfeng troops took advantage of the chaos to release the smoke attack,
At the same time, the mixed troops pressed the entire line to carry out an attack raid. Before dawn, the Japanese army's peripheral defense line must be solved." Zhao Zhi deployed all attack steps very tightly. I believe that the performance of the sniper troops during the day had already made the Japanese army frightened. After nightfall, the Japanese army was
Never dare to risk his life to attack.
"If the Japanese tanks can be seized, they will be seized. We need tanks to help clear the Japanese remnants of Jiuzhou Island." Zhao Zhi did not forget to give a few words in the end. The lack of troops and heavy weapons is the biggest problem Zhao Zhi faces now. If he wants to obtain it, he will not forget to give it a few words.
The key to the US military's follow-up military aid is to fight this battle well, otherwise everything will be free of negotiation, and the Americans are very practical.
Zhao Zhi's position was loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and he could not see the busyness and tension before the war. In fact, except for the defensive troops on the outside, the other troops in Zhao Zhi were already gathering secretly under the command of the officers. "Depart"
The manic day finally passed, and the 300 mercenaries who had been waiting for a long time were impatient to jump out of their positions to sneak towards the Japanese army in the dark. The weapons they carried were only mortars and small incendiary bombs. After firing the incendiary bombs, they
It only takes one minute to retreat, otherwise it will be accidentally injured by the powerful incendiary bomb dropped by the fighter troops.
