Chapter 678: Knocking on the Mountain and Shaking the Tiger
"On the bottom of the gourd? Are you saying that Jiang Haoran's tank troops and helicopter gunships will be arranged on the bottom of the gourd? Nishimura Liwen asked.
"Not bad! I don't think anything is wrong with his troops not moving, but now you see, he gave up one defense line after another in an orderly manner, as if luring us in layer by layer, I have to think that once the Imperial Army invests a large number of troops and armored troops into the third district, the expeditionary force troops use numerous communication trenches to shrink their forces step by step until they retreat to the bottom of the gourd, and then the tank troops and helicopters kill out of it, such a large area is unobstructed, the tanks and helicopters of the expeditionary force are crushed and swept all the way from the ground and high altitudes, and the infantry will follow, if this is the case, My 38th Division is completely finished. Tanaka Shinichi shook his head and said with a look of sudden realization.
"Ah, how is this battle going to be fought? The general of the temple ordered us to take the Hukang River Valley within a time limit and carry out the bottom of the expeditionary force? ”
At this moment, a staff officer hurriedly came to report that the Okamoto United had taken the second line of defense and was preparing to continue to advance.
Tanaka Shinichi hurriedly raised the binoculars in his hand, looked at them for a while, and said firmly: "Order the Okamoto Wing to stop the attack, build fortifications on the spot, and the follow-up troops will return to the same place and stand by." ”
"Tanaka-kun, this is not ?????? Inside the temple? ”
Nishimura Riwen was in a panic, Tanaka Shinichi simply stood up and interrupted him with his palm, and said: "You don't need to say it again, I can't throw the 38th Division and the tank wing into the wolf's mouth, I will explain to the general of the temple, now we can only wait for the second division to surround from Mengguan, let them attack the bottom of the gourd, and then we will attack from this side." ”
Seeing that Shinichi Tanaka was so resolute, Nishimura Toshiwin shook his head helplessly, and waved his hand to signal the staff officer to carry out the order.
On the hillside opposite the Hukang River Valley, Huang Jie, chief of staff of the expeditionary force, always watched the changes in the battlefield, but Jiang Haoran lay under a sleeping chair under the tree, fell asleep soundly, and there was a Mei Xin on the side who shook a fan for him.
Huang Jie took the telescope away from his eyes, looked suspicious, and said to himself: "Hey, it seems that this devil is not ready to fight?" ”
"What? How long has it been since the devil stopped fighting? Jiang Haoran exclaimed, bounced up from the couch, snatched the telescope from Huang Jie's hand, and put it on his eyes.
Jiang Haoran's sudden attack really startled Huang Jie, and secretly said that his voice didn't seem to be loud, why did this kid still snort just now, so he let him hear it?
Seeing Huang Jie's embarrassment, Leng Rushuang and the Mei sisters both pursed their lips and smiled, which made Huang Jie look even more embarrassed.
Fortunately, Jiang Haoran immediately grinned: "I'm rubbing the damn, this devil is repairing fortifications, the tanks on the edge of the jungle are all on the bridge, and the fuck is retreating, this devil is really not ready to fight?" ”
"Tanks on the bridge? Why didn't I see it? Huang Jie picked up a telescope from a staff officer next to him and put it on his eyes, even if he looked through the telescope, the Hukang River was like a relatively wide belt, the bridge could see two, but it was not much bigger than a thumb, why did he still see the tank on the bridge, and it retreated?
Jiang Haoran ignored Huang Jie at all, looking at him like a monster, and asked, "Who is the commander of the 38th Division of the Japanese Army?" ”
"Oh, it's Shinichi Tanaka, Lieutenant General, and the chief of staff is Nishimura Toshion, Major General."
"No wonder, this old devil?"
"Why, Soza fought him?"
"What's more, this old devil was in the battle of Base 331, if he hadn't run fast at the beginning, I guess he wouldn't be here today?"
Huang Jie nodded, thoughtful, and then said, "Are you saying that Tanaka Shimichi saw through your intentions and didn't dare to attack?" ”
"Eighty percent is like this, this old boy has a shadow on me, it is estimated that the two lines of defense in front of me gave up too quickly, so that he can detect that I am luring him in, and at the same time, the delay in the appearance of the gunship will also make him feel like a sword hanging over his head, if my guess is correct, he may be prepared to wait for the second division to outflank from Mengguan, and then carry out a two-sided flanking attack." Jiang Haoran said.
"But it is impossible for the Japanese Second Division to reach Mengguan now, and we can't afford to wait, so can we still consume them with them?" Huang Jie said hurriedly.
Jiang Haoran pondered for a while, and then said, "Do you want to fight?" There is no door, Lao Tzu has to force him to fight! Rushuang, go and ask Chu Zhongtian how long it will take to parachute the troops over."
Leng Rushuang left on the front foot, Jiang Haoran howled Su Canwen loudly again, but it was Jiang Shi who ran out, reporting that Jiang Haoran and Su Canwen had been transferred to Mizhi by him? That (I learned today that the latter two words will be blocked in many places, so I will use the word 'Mina' in the future, don't spray!) Gone, left by helicopter an hour ago, and now the Snow Wolf special operations team is under his command.
Jiang Haoran slapped his forehead and ordered him to assemble the special combat team immediately, and ordered the helicopter transport squadron and the first armed helicopter squadron to prepare to take off, and just went to Mina with him.
One hundred and twenty helicopters, three squadrons of armed helicopters, and one squadron of transport planes are subordinate to the flight group of the 40 th Group Army.
Seeing that Jiang Haoran's posture was to personally go to Mina to command the battle, Huang Jie immediately panicked, such a big stall was handed over to him, and Jiang Haoran's expected value was to completely annihilate the 38th Division of the Japanese Army, he couldn't afford this burden, not to mention that Jiang Haoran had to take these fifty helicopters away, in case he walked on the front foot, the Japanese army would attack on the back foot, and where could this army plus the tank regiment block the attack of a division and tank wing of the Japanese army.
Jiang Haoran smiled, patted Huang Jie's shoulder, pointed to the jungle not far away, and told him that there were still sixty armed helicopters and ten transport helicopters in this jungle, and they arrived last night, and he didn't have to worry about the staffing and weapons and ammunition, in case the enemy really attacked, he would fight according to the tactics he had formulated. But he estimated that this possibility would not happen at all, and even if it did, it would take at least two or three hours for the enemy to penetrate the main battlefield, and he would have been able to return by helicopter long ago.
In this way, Huang Jie put his heart back in his stomach, and he also knew that if the 38th Division really saw through Jiang Haoran's tactics, if they wanted to attack, unless they transferred these 50 helicopters, at the same time, once the expeditionary force put pressure on the Japanese army in Mina, even if the 38th Division of the Japanese Army wanted to hold its ground, the Japanese Southern Army Command would force him to move.
