Chapter 3 After the Recruit Break

The Suzuki squadron, which had two tanks to help in the battle, had more than 50 infantry casualties after an hour of attack on Wangjiashan, except for one tank that was accidentally damaged by a mine! This is still a containment attack, this is clearly fighting to the death with a strong enemy who is evenly matched!

The troops had completely stopped advancing, and when one of the heralds was suddenly shot and killed, Captain Suzuki finally gave the second order to retreat today.

"Your Excellency Shaozuo, the 7th Squadron encountered resistance from the superior Zhina Army at Wangjiashan, and the troops suffered losses, so I asked for tactical guidance." Captain Suzuki sent this telegram for help with a bitter face. Attacking Wangjiashan is still too heavy a task for an infantry squadron. The Suzuki squadron was sure that the Chinese troops defending Wangjiashan definitely exceeded a regular regiment!

Taking advantage of the gap in the temporary retreat of the devils, Hu Fei seized the time to count the number of people. I don't know if I don't check, but I'm shocked when I check! More than 500 people from three companies participated in the battle, and after fighting for more than an hour, more than 200 were killed and more than 200 were killed, of which 78 were killed and 64 were seriously wounded!

What especially hurts Hu Fei is that many of the three companies are veterans who followed him all the way from the Northeast, and they didn't die in the Northeast, and they didn't die on the way to the cross-border transfer, but they died in Wangjiashan!

Although the total number of cavalry brigades has exceeded a thousand, more than half of them are bandits who have only recently been recruited! Only those who were of good character, who had not done too many bad things before, and who had to be able to shoot guns, were organized into four combat companies. The remaining hundreds of people are all supplementary soldiers, and Li San is now serving as a supplementary company commander.

Hu Fei planned to let this group of reinforcements train for a while longer, at least so that they would not collapse immediately after they went to the battlefield before they could be replenished into the troops, or they could be directly organized into two more companies. Now it seems that both of these ideas are a bit out of place!

"Brother Fei, the troops have suffered a lot of casualties!" As soon as Chief of Staff Liu Dong came in, he went to Hu Fei to report the situation, and he had just gone to the blocking position of the Third Company to supervise the battle.

"yes, do you have any good solutions?" Hu Fei looked at Liu Dong, and there seemed to be a light flashing in his eyes.

"There's no good way, but I can lead the death squad around behind the devil and fight a guy! If he can disrupt the formation of the devils, Fei Ge may be able to defeat the devils who come by leading the troops to launch a general attack. ”

"Hehe, Lao Liu's method is good, but we can't fight like this." Hu Fei smiled and patted Liu Dong's shoulder, "If you want to do what I say, let's withdraw now, retreat into the mountains and fight the devil again!" The order was given to all the troops to immediately withdraw to the mountains with all their heavy horses. After the supplementary connection is broken, the two connections should be! ”

As soon as Hu Fei gave the order to retreat, the companies of the cavalry brigade immediately sorted out their ranks and began to retreat, and Li San led more than 300 recruits who had just joined the national army for less than two months to stay at the end.

After receiving a telegram from Captain Suzuki asking for help, the devil Shaozo quickly reported to the brigade headquarters. After listening to the report, Major General Sakai Hoji looked at the map for a long time, looked up and ordered the adjutant to give more troops to the Suzuki squadron! Send another infantry squadron to reinforce the Suzuki squadron!

Although Wangjiashan does not seem to be a strategic location, if this place is always in the hands of the national army, it is likely to cause a great psychological deterrent to the Japanese army attacking Tianzhen. So, the Chinese army in Wangjiashan must be eliminated!

At the same time as sending ground troops, Major General Sakai also ordered the aviation to bomb the positions of the Chinese troops in Wangjiashan to support the attack of the Japanese troops on the ground!

The 1st Brigade of the Chahar Dispatch Corps of the Japanese Army is the first mechanized corps in Japan, with two tank brigades, an artillery brigade, two infantry brigades, plus a baggage brigade, an engineer brigade, a communications brigade, and a medical brigade, with seven or eight hundred vehicles of all kinds, and a total strength of nearly 5,000 people! Its mobility and combat capabilities are among the best among units of the same level in the Japanese army.

In order to win Tianzhen in one fell swoop, the devil can be said to have invested enough!

Li Fuying's 61st Army was a newly expanded army, with only one division and one brigade under the army, and it was even more incomparable with the Japanese army, a mechanized mixed brigade, in terms of weapons. Compared with the two, the 61st Army could not be the opponent of the Sakai Hoji Brigade in terms of strength.

The infantry squadron sent by Major General Sakai to support Wangjiashan joined up with Suzuki's squadron two hours later. The distance between the two sides is really close.

Ten minutes after the two Japanese units met, four Japanese planes flew in the sky. This time, the commander Chahar sent the corps to participate in the Shanxi operation, and it was the famous Kwantung Army Chief of Staff Hideki Tojo! With Hideki Tojo here, the aviation must also hurry up to help in the war! Captain Suzuki and Captain Yamada, who came to reinforce each other, high-fived each other, and it seems that all the good things have been caught up by the devils!

Li San heard the roar of the plane in the sky and knew that it was going to be broken!

"Supplement even everyone immediately fell on the spot! No one was ordered not to shoot, not to move, not to raise their voices, and those who violated the order were shot! "In addition to giving such strict military orders, Li San didn't know how to talk to the recruits about the devil plane! Buddha bless, I hope this time can turn evil into good fortune! Li San, who has never believed in Buddhism, actually recited a sentence of Buddha this time for the first time.

Recruit Niu Er was lying on his stomach on the ground, scolding all the time in his mouth: "Fuck! This devil hasn't seen a shadow yet, so let Lao Tzu lie down first. If the devil comes, don't you have to ask Lao Tzu to kowtow to him? ”

"Niu Er, you give me honesty! Do you know how Niu Er died in the Song Dynasty? That guy just had too much in his mouth, and he had to pester Yang Zhi, a big official, and he didn't give up, but in the end, he let Yang Daguan cut his neck with a knife. I sue you, if you don't clean your mouth, beware of meeting Yang Zhi again! ”

A few soldiers next to him laughed, and Niu Er pursed his mouth, "Yang Tou'er, you don't give me a fool's errand, where did Niu Er of the Song Dynasty come from?" You've told me that more than a hundred times. I said let you bring "Water Margin" to me to see, but you haven't brought it yet. I haven't seen you read a few books when I was the current cottage owner on Matou Mountain, but now that you are a platoon commander of the national army, even your knowledge has risen? ”

"That's it! Can you become the commander of the national army without education? As long as you don't know a big word, you are only worthy of being a big soldier! I sue you ......"

"No one is allowed to speak!" After platoon commander Yang was teaching his soldiers a lesson, a cold drink suddenly came, and platoon commander Yang and Niu Ertou turned their heads to look, and saw company commander Li Santie glaring at them fiercely with a blue face. The two of them just shut up and didn't say a word.

It's hard to bring these hundreds of supplementary soldiers, just a devil plane is coming, don't talk nonsense, I don't know how many times to emphasize it! I hope they don't get scared of the devil plane! For this group of subordinates who are not in shape at first glance, Li San's heart is becoming more and more bottomless.
