Chapter 1134: Key Node
Casually wiped the blood and dust on their hands, and everyone fell into a state of rest.
It's really a little tiring to rush over this way.
Zhang Tianhai unfolded the map and began to think.
There are no villages or cities around, and there is not even a single mountain road to be found, so it can be said that it is a standard no-man's land. For the enemy, this is completely wild, so their garrison must be a relatively flat place, so that they can set up a camp with some size and defense.
And although his target is the enemy's communication tower, but up to now, Zhang Tianhai does not know the exact location of the enemy's communication tower - he can only determine that it is near the opponent's camp, otherwise it is placed in an unattended place, which is simply saying to himself: There is something important here, come and destroy it!
So after reaching the vicinity of the destination, you still need to search for the target.
Now you can basically determine the location of the opponent's camp, because there are either forests or hills nearby, and only one place is relatively flat.
That place is about ten kilometers away from me, so close that you can see that area as long as you climb over the mountains in front of you.
It was a very abrupt clearing in the middle of the forest, with only a few low weeds on it, but none of the trees or anything. Because this place is very conspicuous, it is very obvious on the map, which makes Zhang Tianhai not have much effort to determine such a location.
Camp 8 is here, but the communication tower is not 80% in this place.
Because of its relatively low altitude, it is surrounded by trees and grass, and is surrounded by mountains on two sides in all four directions. The signal is also not much better, so it must be placed in other higher places.
Then the most likely place is naturally on the top of the mountain. If that's the case, you can see them if you get close.
But don't forget that there are mountains on the other side, and if you put it over there, it will be for your own people. It's quite a hassle.
I can't say it, I have to go around from the side to be able to complete this plan.
After a short rest, the team continued to hit the road. However, Sima Yun's state obviously failed to recover, so the speed of the team was not very fast, and the number of breaks was relatively large. As a result, the march of the team slowed down a lot.
But everyone is not in a hurry, after all, their time is very sufficient, and they are not in a hurry for one day or two. And count the time. The radio on your own side should also be repaired tomorrow, and at that time, at least you will not be at a disadvantage in the communication problem, even if you can't deal with the enemy's communication tower, you will not suffer a special loss, and it can be regarded as a no-lose deal.
During the night, the team stopped moving forward and rested.
The roads in this mountainous area are complicated. It's not something you can get by walking straight, and you don't know how many turns you've made along the way. That's why. So that there is no enemy in this mountain, it is relatively safe.
This terrain restricts the movement of many troops, and the Chinese troops will not advance from here, and even if they want to attack the Japanese troops, they will take the direction of the forest and approach from another area. In this mountainous area, it is not a good choice, and even if you can find a road, it will take too long to rush it, and the gains outweigh the losses.
And the Black Saber Squad. Now it is because there is no shortage of time that I will choose this safer path to go, far away, but I can avoid it, at least avoid most of the battles, this is the result that everyone wants.
At this time, on the other side, on the mountain road behind the third battlefield, there was a feeling of "bright lights".
The fighting here has been going on for a whole day.
The Chinese offensive force had the strength of a regiment, but due to the terrain constraints, the team could not be deployed at all, and could only rush into the line of fire little by little. However, the enemy held the favorable terrain to the death, and the teams sent by themselves often suffered heavy casualties when they came down.
When the team arrived at the place, it was not long before the helicopter unit spotted the enemy forces in hiding. The battlefield position is a corner, and the enemy is all on the top of the hill and on the mountainside, holding the middle road to the death. Not only that, but there were also some bombs placed on the road, and by this time those bombs had exploded, breaking the road alive.
The scope of the explosion was not large, and as long as there was no enemy fire, after a few hours, the sappers were able to quickly repair the section of the road that had been blown up. But now, there is a group of enemies shooting at themselves overhead, which makes it impossible for the Chinese soldiers to pass the road for the time being, let alone repair it.
Not only that, but the officers who led the team also found some other problems.
These soldiers, with accurate marksmanship, are not only snipers, but also other machine gunners, suppressing the fire swept over, and one by one people could not raise their heads, let alone move forward, and the riflemen's bullets were often flying against the soldiers' bodies, so that the casualties of their own troops would soon go up.
The second point is that the number of this unit is indeed only the level of a company, but the equipment is very good: in addition to ordinary rifles and machine guns, these people even brought two heavy machine guns, one on the left and one on the right, placed on the mountainsides on both sides of the mountain, and put a lot of stones around it for cover. It is the heavy firepower of these two places that is the most lethal to themselves.
This is not over, in the hands of a small number of soldiers, there are even FIM-92 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles!
This is the biggest threat to their own helicopter gunship troops!
One of the four helicopter gunships supporting him had already been shot down, and the wreckage lay on the side of the road not far away, charred and black.
This made the other three helicopter gunships dare not move at will.
However, the heavy casualties on their own side also brought some results - although this result was a bit humiliating in the eyes of the officers.
The enemy's people are in the elite, and they are all flesh and blood, and they exert such high-intensity pressure, and the other party has also suffered some casualties.
However, judging from the opponent's resistance firepower to the present, the resistance force is a little smaller, but it has not yet reached the point where it hurts the muscles and bones.
The most annoying thing is the sniper on the other side. But fortunately, there are three special squads behind him to assist in the operation, they all have snipers, and there are also a group of snipers in their own troops. With them as a containment, the snipers of the other side did not dare to be too unscrupulous. However, judging from the online report, the casualties of his snipers exceeded his imagination.
It seems that just in this sniper-level contest, he is a loser!
On the third battlefield of the front, the general offensive of the Japanese army also began. This first wave of offensive made the defending Chinese troops feel a lot of pressure, and the strength of the Japanese army exposed was fundamentally two grades from the information obtained in the previous engagement.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that your own defense line was solid enough, your own troops would have collapsed by this time.
But fortunately, this first wave was pushed back, and then the soldiers were ready, although the casualties may not be controllable, but the other party should not think of defeating themselves in a wave.
The battle information behind him has also been received, but he has no intention of dividing his troops to help. The pressure in this place is enough, and I really don't have the energy to take care of it anymore.
Now I can only wait for the support troops behind me to open the way and let the reinforcements arrive.
It really doesn't matter if you hang up yourself, but the commander also knows in his heart that if he doesn't have this defensive position of his own, then this will be a breakthrough in his own defense, and the Japanese army can drive directly into the second line of defense from here. In this way, the other first line of defense and the surrounding battlefields will lose their significance, which is equivalent to self-defeating.
After a series of chain reactions, you will fall into disadvantage and passivity, and if you want to turn the tables, the difficulty will rise several notches.
This is a scene that the commander definitely does not want to see!
These things are already clear to all the officers and men of the army. Knowing his own importance, all the soldiers burst out with amazing combat effectiveness and morale, which is also one of the important reasons why they can withstand the enemy's tidal attack.
"Bang!"
The Japanese command, the commander-in-chief, Aoki Jin, slammed his fist on the table, his face turned pale.
Yesterday, just yesterday, his intelligence department told him that the Chinese troops were not aware of any actions or any other anomalies they were trying to do, but before 24 hours, the nails they had planted in the hinterland of the Chinese troops' defense line were about to be pulled out, and this speed was ...... It's really fast, which caught Aoki off guard!
Originally, the attack was planned to be a day later than now, and at that time, the "nails" would be able to completely control the vital points of the supply lines of the Chinese troops. But now, although the battle is still in the upper hand, it is completely different from the situation that Aoki Jin planned before.
How does this not make Aoki angry?
Aside from the leak, Aoki couldn't think of any other reason why the Chinese forces could have reacted so quickly.
But now if you don't fight, you can't do it, if you continue to attack according to the original plan, the Chinese troops will completely come to their senses, and then there will be no chance to break through the defense line, which is equivalent to returning to the original point, which is also what Aoki Jin does not want to see at all.
Aoki Jin shouted loudly, "Increase the troops!" Let the 36th Regiment go to support immediately! I'm going to break through the defense as fast as I can! (To be continued......)
