Chapter 442: Second Line See-saw (5) (Page 1/1)

The Japanese troops in front of the second-line positions adjusted their battle formations and attack tactics, and the Japanese soldiers who were preparing to launch a surprise attack lined up in formation and attack order and placed them in front of the positions of the teaching brigade and Zhou Pu's battalion.

It was an infantry squadron and two heavy machine gun squads that attacked the position of the teaching brigade, and a complete infantry squadron and an infantry squad plus a heavy machine gun squad that attacked the position of the Zhou Pu battalion.

In the end, Takeda changed the plan again, originally attacking the position of Zhou Pu's camp was a complete infantry squadron plus two infantry squadrons, Takeda decided to reduce an infantry squad and control this squad in the hands of the brigade, not because he was afraid, but because of the serious loss of troops, so that Takeda must use it carefully.

There are more than 600 people left in the whole brigade, and if they are exhausted, the next battle will definitely be very difficult, especially Takeda's ultimate goal is to relieve the siege of the Kunlun Pass defenders, and it is necessary to reserve a certain reserve force.

In the few battles after the Takeda Brigade set out from Nanning, almost none of them were smooth, and the situation of only more than 600 people in the whole brigade had hardly occurred before.

The main force of the Takeda Brigade was all used to attack the position of the Zhou Pu battalion, and it was the method of attacking the weak, and Takeda and his officers maintained sufficient vigilance against the position of the Teaching Brigade, and only sent one squad of infantry and two heavy machine gun squads, and the infantry sent few of them, indicating that they did not want to attack the position of the Instructor Brigade at all. Strive to suppress.

The core of the offensive tactics was to break through the right-hand position with poor tactical performance and exposed fire reconnaissance, and to achieve the goal of attacking the second-line position by defeating the officers and men of the 1st Battalion of the 65th Regiment stationed there.

"Boom!" Two 92 infantry guns were ejected, firing the first shot of the Takeda brigade's attack, and landed on the position of Zhou Pu's battalion.

……

"Get into position! Get ready for battle! ”

In the position of the teaching brigade, non-commissioned officers and officers organized rows of soldiers into their respective positions. Before the Japanese artillery bombardment began, the officers and men of the teaching brigade stationed in the left flank position had already entered a state of imminent battle, and all the soldiers entered the position.

Fire reconnaissance, in order to attack with troops, firepower, force the enemy to return fire, and expose the tactics of firepower and positional formation————— this principle and order, Zhang Wei, a battalion-level officer, of course, understood, and after the small group of Japanese scouts began to engage fire, the brothers of the teaching brigade began to prepare for battle.

Although the firepower and strength of the teaching brigade to attack the Japanese reconnaissance unit were small, the whole brigade had been on alert, and the first-line positions had been strengthened.

The first and second squadrons were in the first line, the third squadron was used as the second-line position in the second trench, the ZB37 heavy machine guns of the heavy fire squadron were arranged in the second-line position of the third squadron, and the mortar platoon of the heavy fire squadron dug and constructed a large number of firing positions for mobile operations.

"Report to the captain of the group, the captain of the first squadron to report, there is a small group of Japanese troops on the front, advancing towards our position, and there are also Japanese troops in front of the friendly position, and the number is more than in front of our position!"

The signal soldier anxiously repeated Qiu Wei's words to Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei lay on the sandbag of the temporary command post and looked at the front of the position with a telescope. In the early morning, when the Japanese scouts were engaged in fire, there was still a lot of morning fog, but now it was all blown away by the wind, and the situation in front of the position was very clear to observe with a telescope.

Among the three signal corps, one was in the trench to give orders, and the other two were on standby in the command post to listen to Zhang Wei's dispatch at any time.

Even if Zhang Wei was in the command post near the rear of the position, he could clearly see the Japanese troops scattered and touched.

"Go back and tell Squadron Leader Qiu to follow the normal way of fighting and pay attention to the movements of the Japanese army!"

"Yes!" Zhang Wei, the Japanese soldier in front of the position of the teaching brigade, saw it with his companions in front of the friendly position on the right, and Qiu Wei reported that there were many people in front of the friendly position, and when he looked in the direction of the command post, the number of people was indeed quite a lot, which was more than the Japanese army in front of the position of the teaching brigade.

What kind of medicine is sold in the devil's gourd, Zhang Wei can probably guess it, when he was conducting fire reconnaissance in the morning, there was a lot of gunfire on the friendly position, and almost all the light and heavy firepower was exposed, judging from the quality and training conditions of the soldiers under Zhou Pu's subordinates, it was really too normal, and the conditions of the soldiers were not enough for them to develop good shooting discipline and judgment.

In the process of fire reconnaissance and all-round firing, Zhou Pu's men were able to kill most of the Japanese troops who came to reconnoitre, and they were already a symbol of elite troops in the national army.

Zhang Wei thought that the devil should have seen this, and planned to bully the soft persimmon, teaching the firepower shown by the brigade in the early morning was only a platoon, not the entire position at all, and the Japanese army would not fail to see that the teaching brigade was hiding firepower, and if it did not fight friendly troops with worse tactical performance, who else could it fight?

"Fuck, it's not funny!" Zhang Wei scolded, his side is well defended, if the friendly side goes wrong first, it is useless to teach the position of the brigade to defend it tightly, the Japanese army has captured one place, gain a firm foothold, and the entire second-line position will collapse.

"Go and tell the 82nd Mortar Platoon and Squadron Leader Li of the Heavy Fire Squadron to let the mortar platoon pay attention to the friendly positions and give a few more rounds of artillery if necessary."

Zhang Wei called out another signal soldier. The support that the teaching brigade can give is troop support and fire support, and the troop support is too variable, and it depends on the course of the battle, so it is most effective to first tell the mortar platoon and give Zhou Pu a few rounds of artillery support.

"Boom." Another round of artillery shells exploded, Zhang Wei's position did not fall, on the friendly position on the right, two clouds of smoke rose up, and the two 92 infantry guns of the Takeda Brigade, ignoring the teaching brigade, carried out round after round of bombardment against the position of Zhou Pu's department.

Regardless of teaching the brigade, the practice of only bombing friendly positions has added another point of evidence to Zhang Wei's judgment, and the tactics of the Takeda brigade do not need to be hidden, and it is clear that they are bullying weaker friendly forces.

The position of the teaching brigade was quiet as usual, and when it was still in the pre-engagement stage, the defensive position of Zhou Pu's department did not reach the point of frying, but it was also very chaotic.

After the infantry artillery bombardment, a large number of approaching Japanese attacking troops were rushing towards the position.

Before the formal fire between the two sides began, Zhou Pu's men suffered casualties, and the Japanese army was prepared for firepower, and the 92nd infantry guns continued to drop bullets, causing more than 20 casualties to Zhou Pu's people.
