Zhang Wei was talking to the special agent platoon commander, and the herald soldiers around him listened while smoking cigarettes, chatting about the kung fu of three or four cigarettes, and the response that Zhang Wei was looking forward to finally came.

A regiment-level unit of the national army can only apply to the division level if it wants to apply for firepower at the higher level, and after the application, it must coordinate with the brigade headquarters to avoid chaos; at today's speed, it is already extremely efficient, and now the national army implements a two-brigade and four-regiment system, which is the same as the Japanese army; in the pre-war and early days of the Anti-Japanese War, a well-equipped two-brigade and four-regiment division is regarded as a "strategic unit" by the national army command.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, the general establishment of the adjustment division was also a square division, but since the start of the war, the various units have suffered serious losses, and the level of weapons is far from comparable with that before the war.

Compared with the Japanese army, the divisions of the Nationalist Army and the divisions and regiments of the Japanese Army are both square-based, with two brigade-level units and four regiment-level units under them, but the infantry regiments of the Nationalist Army have weak firepower, and the artillery fire directly under the regiment is only an 82-millimeter caliber mortar company, equipped with four to six Chinese-made 20-year-old 82 mortars, and the under-equipped troops may only have two or three.

And the artillery firepower of the units of the same level of the Japanese army, the direct artillery of the wing is much stronger than the infantry regiments of the Chinese army.

In the brigade headquarters of the national army, except for a few commanders and guards and miscellaneous soldiers, there are no direct troops at all, let alone any supporting firepower, which cannot be supported, but there is an additional command level. Only in the division did there be a few mountain guns of the artillery battalion for fire support, and the same Japanese division had a large number of directly subordinate troops, and the brigade and brigade headquarters were better said.

The regiment is inferior to other people's wings, and the division is even worse than other people's divisions and regiments, and the firepower is pressed and beaten by others, and the efficiency of command, liaison, and communication is not good.

Fortunately, it is wartime, everything is urgent, the 46th Division quickly agreed to the request for artillery reinforcements, Zhang Wei's major problem is solved, the suppression of firepower has been settled, as for the matter of the battle defense artillery, it can be regarded as lucky, and the 27th Army military headquarters when Qiu Qingquan happened to be there, as soon as he heard that Zhang Wei needed firepower reinforcements, and the battle defense artillery battalion had no task troops, Qiu Qingquan immediately agreed to allocate an additional battle defense artillery company to reinforce.

The two things that Zhang Wei needed were solved, and after thanking the two officers at the command post, Zhang Wei was faced with a new problem.

"How do you coordinate with artillery?"

Zhang Wei's original intention in applying for artillery support was to suppress the Japanese position, and to make the infantry equipped with anti-aircraft artillery advance as much as possible under the cover of artillery fire, so this required close cooperation between infantry and artillery, that is, infantry and artillery coordination, which can only be implemented after training, which is a highly difficult job.

The infantry in Zhang Wei's hands has not been trained in infantry and artillery coordination, and the artillery in the mountain artillery battalion behind has not learned the shooting method of infantry and artillery coordination.

"Sir, how does the artillery in the rear cooperate with the infantry?"

The colonel was stunned for a moment, Zhang Wei couldn't answer this question for a while, with the training he received in the military academy, only basic infantry tactics and weapons were used, and the time was not long, and in terms of infantry tactics education alone, the time that this regiment commander had been educated in school could not even be compared to Zhang Wei and Qiu Wei.

Zhang Wei and Qiu Wei's school system is three years, and the regiment commander in front of him, who can also be said to be his senior, has only studied in school for a little more than a year, which also includes enlisted student education and political study.

"The regimental seat, the news from the division headquarters is that an artillery bombardment will be launched before 5:40 p.m., firing a half-base and shelling the enemy position with a part of the shotgun." The lieutenant colonel saw that the head of the regiment was a little at a loss, and hurriedly answered.

The shelling started before five o'clock, this reply Zhang Wei could barely accept, at least told him the time of the shelling, gave him enough time to react to organize the troops to attack, and there were a lot of shells for one and a half bases, as well as shotguns, and Zhang Wei couldn't ask for anything.

"Thank you, two chiefs, understood!"

The colonel nodded: "Your anti-aircraft artillery company is coming, you must capture the Japanese position today!" ”

"Yes!"

There are artillery bombardments and battle defense artillery, and there is no point for Zhang Wei to stay here, he left the command post, said goodbye to the special agent platoon commander, and rushed towards the position with his own heralds, the time of the shelling is 5:40, he has to take advantage of the previous time to organize the attack troops, and he has to arrange the war defense artillery, the time is very urgent.

May is the beginning of summer, the time is about seven o'clock when it gets dark, the trouble of attacking and fighting is greater, the Japanese flares can make the front of the position and the day and day no difference, but the national army, it is very likely that under the fire of the Japanese army in the dark night, the attack will fail.

Hurry!

The general plan of the attack, Zhang Wei had already had a general plan before, because organizing such an attack was not very difficult in itself, but it was only because of the lack of various firepower and heavy equipment that it was so cumbersome, and he had to go to the rear to ask for firepower.

Zhang Wei now has a reserve battalion of his own, and the two battalions of friendly forces will also cooperate with him in fighting to attack the positions of the Japanese army, and in front of the dense fire network, a large number of infantry must not be placed, because the Japanese machine gun bullets are too much, and they feel that the rifle shooting skills of the Japanese soldiers are not accurate enough.

The main attacking force cannot exceed one battalion, even if it is the strength of one battalion, Zhang Wei also feels that it is a little more, but in the case that the firepower and basic quality of the detachment are inferior to the Japanese army, they can only appropriately increase the number of troops, and there is no doubt that the one who does this must be his own reserve battalion, and the reserve battalion, as the main attack force, is to open a hole in the Japanese position, so as to prepare for the follow-up troops to expand the results of the battle and comprehensively capture the Japanese position.

Under the suppression of artillery fire, the preparatory battalion would carry the battle defense artillery forward, advance a certain distance, and then scatter two infantry companies to attack the Japanese position, and the other infantry company will not charge, but cover the fire of the battle defense artillery and act as a battalion reserve.

After the artillery fire was suppressed, the attacking troops attacked, and the battle defense artillery was responsible for providing cover for them, knocking them out, and attacking the core of the Japanese defense - the fortress.

After destroying the defensive core of the Japanese army, the attacking two infantry companies broke through the Japanese position, and then, the reserve company of the reserve battalion, as well as the first and second battalions of friendly forces that did not participate in the first line of attack, all troops, mounted bayonets, launched a large-scale attack, expanded the results of the battle with superior forces, completely captured the Japanese position, expelled and eliminated the Japanese defenders.

Zhang Wei believes that no matter how strong the Japanese army is, it may not be able to hold up under this kind of attack, at least the strength of the national army on the front line has two battalions of the preparatory battalion and the friendly army, and the number of people adds up to more than 1,000 people.

Finally, attack on all fronts!
