Chapter 507: Wolf Pack Tactics
Soon, three undercurrents flowed towards the Japanese defense line, and after a few crisp gunshots, several searchlights went black without exception, and while the night was falling, the creeping soldiers immediately burst out, like fierce beasts out of the forest, and pounced fiercely on the enemy's defense line.
The enemy apparently also expected the attack, and reacted quite quickly, not necessarily seen, but a few machine guns in the pillbox were quickly swept up. The Japanese puppet army on the defensive line also hurriedly met the battle, and for a while, the gunfire of the 38 big cover and AK47 was intertwined, and quickly appeared in a dense state.
The three sharp knife companies of the Hurricane detachment quickly arrived at the edge of the defense line and suppressed the Japanese puppet army on the defense line with the powerful firepower laid by AK47. The battle defense artillery was also pushed up immediately, and the cannonballs with tail flames "roared" into the air, and went straight to the turret towering in the night.
Because of the birth of the bazooka, the Japanese army's original masonry turret bunker also had to be replaced with shotguns, basically the important positions were replaced with reinforced concrete structures, and the bazooka hit the masonry structure of the fortifications that was a cannon and a quasi, but for the reinforced concrete fortifications were almost hot, so the Hurricane detachment was equipped with 37 anti-tank guns, which were mainly used for anti-tank weapons, and it was more than enough to fight the Japanese army's not very thick turrets built in a hurry, and the 37 mm cannon shells easily chiseled through the shell of the Japanese artillery towers.
With the dazzling sparks shining in the night, the turrets and bunkers that stood in the night collapsed one after another. In the earth-shattering killing cry, mixed with the roar of AK47, dense chains of fire overflowed from the defense line, and all the way to Wuhan, the headquarters of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army.
It was one o'clock in the night, the headquarters was still brightly lit, and the well-dressed staff generals were all gathered together, and the commander of the 11th Army, Lieutenant General Anan Yuji, and the chief of staff of Major General Isamu Kinoshita, stood in the first place with an angry face, and the giant map behind them had been opened.
Half an hour ago, they received the news that the Hurricane Column was storming Leping County, it was a cold day, they had to get out of the hot bed one by one, about Jiang Haoran's troops, they did not dare to take it lightly, although the small battles in the area of Huangshan and Jingdezhen never stopped, but this time it was an attack on the county seat, and it was also the largest military operation after the armistice, especially in Jiang Haoran had just changed the guard, which made the top of the 11th Army nervous.
What made Anan Wei angry was not the Hurricane Column's attack on Leping County, but such a big military operation, and the Special High Division actually didn't notice it in advance, and when the attack began, the Special High Division verified with the troops in the defense areas around Quzhou, only to find that the Hurricane detachments that had been operating in their respective defense areas had already disappeared, and they didn't even know when they left.
According to the report of the defenders of Leping County, the attack of the Chinese army was extremely fierce, and after quickly cutting through the defense line, it surrounded the county town from all sides, using the tactics of wolves, not dividing the assist and main attack at all, and swarming up, with a posture of not giving up until the goal was achieved, and it is certain that they were premeditated and planned large-scale attacks.
Anan Weiji concluded that the Hurricane Column must have been dispatched, and the troops of more than 50,000 people attacked a county town with less than 10,000 troops, and he could think of the dangerous Cheng DΓΉ of Leping County at this time with his ass. Therefore, as soon as he received the news, he immediately issued an order for rapid reinforcements to the Fifth Division stationed in Jingdezhen and the Thirteenth Division stationed in Huangshan, only hoping that it would be too late, after all, Jingdezhen is only a few dozen miles away from Leping, and the Mohua troops should be able to arrive in three hours.
Now Anan is thinking about the only question, is this the private action of the commander of the Hurricane Column, or is it an action instructed by Jiang Haoran? Because the Hurricane Column is in fact only a guerrilla force, and all actions are the decision of the column commander, unlike the regular troops who must have orders from their superiors, if this is the case, Anan can only understand that the Hurricane Column is idle. If it was the latter, he had to consider whether Jiang Haoran had another conspiracy.
Dealing with Jiang Haoran, every Japanese general is walking on thin ice and has to be cautious.
But this untraceable result is not easy to guess, and a Japanese soldier Dazuo stepped forward and said: "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, I think this move is definitely part of Jiang Haoran's conspiracy. β
"Oh, Shikano-kun, tell me your reason?" Anan said with encouragement.
Lu Yejing, the operational staff officer of the Eleventh Army, continued: "According to reliable information, now Jiang Haoran's 40th Group Army has all been transferred to the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line, and the defenders of the base have only left less than one division of troops, with Jiang Haoran's cunning, it is impossible for him not to know that the imperial army will never let him occupy Quzhou for a long time, once the imperial army has eased this time, it is a certain thing to reoccupy Quzhou, Shangrao, and Yingtan, in this case, Jiang Haoran has no troops to adjust, and can only use the existing forces to deal with the unstoppable attack of the imperial army, Moreover, his troops were also divided into several parts because of the existence of Nanchang, and they could not be mobilized freely. Once the battle begins, the imperial army will surprise the troops to cut off any of his Fuzhou and Gao'an communication arteries, and the entire three cities of Quzhou will fall into the siege of the imperial army, if I am Jiang Haoran, instead of waiting for the imperial army to attack, it is better to take the initiative to attack and take Nanchang in one fell swoop, so that his troops of hundreds of thousands of horses can be huddled together, and the imperial army just wants to fight him, I am afraid that he will also have to prepare to double the number of troops. β
"Yo Xi, there is some truth in Lu Ye-kun's words!" Anan nodded approvingly. But then he changed his words and said: "However, once Jiang Haoran hits Nanchang, he is not afraid that the troops in the direction of Hangzhou and Wenzhou of the imperial army will surround him, with his current garrison strength in Quzhou, Shangrao, and Yingtan, he can only barely defend the city, and it is absolutely impossible to divide troops to attack Nanchang, and once Nanchang is attacked, the Fifth Division of the Imperial Army Jingdezhen and the Third Division of Huangshan may attack in the direction of Quzhou, or reinforce in the direction of Nanchang, and the troops in the direction of Wuhan of the Imperial Army can quickly drive to the Nanchang battlefield through the Nanxun Line Railway, with Jiang Haoran's current strength, can he provoke such a big battle? To put it another way, the Chongqing government is now focusing on dealing with GCD, can he agree with Jiang Haoran to do so? And we haven't received any news from the Ju organ about this, so it's impossible for such a big battle, and the Chongqing government doesn't know about it at all, right? There is also a very important point, if the Chongqing government is really ready to attack Nanchang, he will definitely not transfer the Fifth Army and the 75th Army back to the rear to rest and recuperate, and throughout every major battle of the Zhina Army, they will drive all the troops that can be mobilized to the front line, and fight the tactics of the imperial army, and will never shrink. Therefore, although there is some truth in Luye-kun's words, it cannot become a reality. β
