Chapter 421: The Awkward Takeda Brigade

"Telegraph man, is there a situation?" On the Nanbin Highway, the teaching brigade, which was less than 800 people, with heavy baggage, was marching along the road in the direction of Kunlun Pass.

Zhang Wei had to ask the telegraph soldiers around him every once in a while, the tactical arrangement had begun, Deng Junlin commanded the 65th Regiment, and was holding the village position, he had a radio in his hand, and Zhang Wei had to keep in touch with Deng Junlin all the time.

The telegraph soldier carried the radio on his back, listened to the telecommunication signal seriously, and shook his head at Zhang Wei, just like last time, there was no telegram, no situation.

There was no gunfire in the rear, and there was no telegram from Deng Junlin, on the surface it was safe and sound, but Zhang Wei's heart was actually fluctuating, and the tactical plan he had temporarily conceived could be achieved?

Zhang Wei was not 100 percent sure that he would think about defeat before fighting against this Japanese brigade, and he didn't dare to imagine that if he got away with it this time, what the result would be.

"Herald! Urge the squadron in front to speed up the search! ”

……

When the teaching brigade was far away, the Takeda Masayuki brigade in front of the village position assembled in front of their makeshift fortifications.

Takeda Masayuki walked on the open ground behind the fortifications, and in front of him was a military flag and four lines of soldiers on standby.

The rectangular sun flag with a white background with a length of 3 feet 3 inches and a width of 3 feet 6 inches fluttered in the wind, and several Japanese soldiers formed a flag guard team held high the military flag.

The Japanese army has a special wing flag personally granted, signed, numbered, and specially awarded by the emperor at the wing level, but there is no infantry brigade level under the formed wing, and there is only an ordinary sun flag (the unit with a special brigade-level military flag is only an independent infantry brigade, and there is no unit with a superior wing organization).

The Japanese army's wing flag means establishment, and the loss of the flag means the reduction of the establishment, and it can be said that the Japanese army attaches great importance to the military flag.

However, on paper, this rule does not apply to ordinary military flags issued by infantry brigades, and there is no hard and fast rule requiring brigade-level units to protect military flags.

Even so, Takeda Masayuki still carefully protected the military flag and arranged a flag protection team, because in their eyes, although the military flag of the brigade is not as great as the wing flag, it is also the soul and honor of the troops.

A ceremony to replenish the battle is being held.

In order to make up for the shortfall in the squadrons, nearly 100 people were selected from the baggage troops, plus more than 50 remnants, to supplement the combat infantry squadrons.

The Japanese army has a well-established system at all levels and is well organized, and the combat soldiers are combat soldiers, and the baggage soldiers are baggage soldiers, although they are all soldiers, but there is a big difference.

Needless to say, in terms of training, the level of training of baggage soldiers is far inferior to that of combat soldiers, and the same is true in terms of the quality of soldiers; soldiers with high physical and cultural qualities are combat soldiers, and baggage soldiers are inferior in all aspects.

But in fanaticism, there is no loss to the combat soldiers.

Although they did not participate directly in battles, they had personally experienced many battles, and in the eyes of these second-line baggage soldiers, the Chinese army was synonymous with stupidity and incompetence, and the army would collapse in the face of white-knuckle combat.

Compared with the combat soldiers, these people despise the Chinese army even more!

Takeda stopped and said slowly: "Warriors, the enemy army is fighting to the death, and we have more than 100 warriors" The warriors sacrificed their lives for the emperor. ”

"Now, our infantry squadron needs more warriors and more imperial warriors to fight, gentlemen, let's rush forward, tear it up, and wipe out that incompetent group of Chinese troops! Avenge the sacrificial samurai! Can you do it?"

"Yes! Yes!" Hundreds of heavy soldiers shouted slogans, raised all kinds of weapons in their hands, and shouted to show their loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor.

"Okay, if you don't collapse, you are the warriors of the imperial army, and I hope that you will firmly believe that long live the emperor and long live the common prosperity of Greater East Asia! Seven lives to serve the country!" Takeda raised his hands and shouted Banzai.

"Onboard! Onboard! Onboard!" The Japanese soldiers erupted in fanatical shouts under the military flag, and the mood of the decisive attack spread from the baggage soldiers to the combat soldiers, from the soldiers to the officers, and even the Japanese troops on the entire position, all shouting frantically under the sun flag.

A battle-ready replenishment ceremony turned into a frenzy of the entire infantry brigade......

After the ceremony, the soldiers were quickly replenished to the various infantry squadrons and received their weapons.

Of the soldiers in front of Takeda, only a dozen of them had 38-style guns and southern pistols in their hands, and most of them were soldiers in the baggage soldiers.

The baggage soldiers, who were still feverish just now, encountered an extremely embarrassing situation, and there were not enough weapons.

Japan, a poor country, has the same situation as the national army in this regard, non-front-line combat soldiers and baggage soldiers, and there are no guns in their hands at all!

On the battlefield, the contest between combat units can bully and bully the Chinese army, and when it is the turn of this kind of thing, the true form of poor ghost imperialism will be undoubtedly revealed.

As a result, these fanatical baggage soldiers of the Takeda Brigade could only search for weapons everywhere.

Takeda was also helpless, he was still shouting about the board just now, and now he has to find a way to replenish the weapon.

One before the other, it is like two emotions and atmospheres.

"Report to the Captain!" Two Japanese squadron leaders ran over, and the expressions on their faces were very interesting.

"Still haven't found enough firearms?"

"Yes, the baggage soldiers of the brigade only have the squad leader and the military Cao, the commander Cao has a Type 38 rifle and pistol in his hand, the other soldiers only have bayonets, and the reserve equipment in the baggage materials is only the amount of a squad."

Unlike Western armies, the Japanese army has a large number of reserves or reserve equipment, and reserve weapons are the surplus equipment of each unit, and the equipment outside the establishment is used to supplement the loss of the troops.

The Japanese army was not so rich, and this brigade in Takeda, the reserve weapons stored in the hands of the baggage soldiers, were just a drop in the bucket for the equipment of a small team.

The Takeda Brigade carried a lot of baggage in this operation, but most of them were guns and shells.

Takeda endured the nameless karmic fire: "What about the guns in the hands of the wounded soldiers?"

The squadron leader stood up and continued to reply: "All the usable firearms of the wounded soldiers have been recovered, and there are only more than 20 intact Type 38 rifles!"

About a hundred baggage soldiers, Cao Chang and about a dozen officers with firearms, made up a squad of weapons from the reserve guns, and collected more than 20 weapons from the wounded soldiers, adding them together, a total of two squads! Thirty or forty others were empty-handed.

"Captain, two infantry squadrons, there are more than 40 supplementary soldiers who have no guns, you see......" The two Japanese squadron commanders who were usually on the front line and graduated from the non-commissioned officer school who had been in battle for a long time were embarrassed to tell the embarrassment of the troops at this time.

Takeda asked, "Are there really no guns?"

"Yes! There are indeed no more firearms. ”

There was courage, there was courage to die for the emperor, but ...... No guns!

There are not enough firearms to arm more than a hundred baggage soldiers!

Takeda, the captain of the brigade, plus two combat squadron leaders, a brigade adjutant, four officers with rich combat experience, and the combat officers of the first brigade of the 21st Wing, were worried about the lack of equipment after the unit was reorganized!

After a long silence, the adjutant of the first brigade came up with an idea.

"Your Excellency Captain, in the battle just now, our brigade killed many warriors, and their bodies and equipment were scattered in front, so let's ......"

The Japanese killed many people in the attack, and the equipment of these dead soldiers was also scattered in front of the position of the teaching brigade with corpses, and during the retreat stage, many Japanese soldiers were killed by pursuing fire in the process of retreating.

The adjutant of the brigade did not finish his words with helplessness, and Takeda and the other two squadron leaders understood the meaning.

What he meant was to go to the front to pick up the weapons of these fallen soldiers......
