Zhang Wei and the officers and soldiers of the preparation battalion were resting and waiting for orders.
Zhang Wei thought to himself that the preparation battalion would not be used under normal circumstances.
After all, there were so many infantry troops, which was not inferior to their battalion.
But if the tanks were dispatched, they would Eighty percent of the time, they still have to go.
The preparation battalion has at least fought against the infantry-tank coordination, not to mention the other troops.
There are still a lot of new recruits in the army, and they will most likely be defeated. x The preparation camp did not wait in vain.
Gui Yongqing, commander of the 27th Army, had a good personal relationship with Qiu Qingquan.
When Qiu Qingquan contacted and negotiated with the 27th Army, the 27th Army first sent a batch of ammunition and a batch of supplies to distribute to the assault column.
The preparation battalion naturally accepted the infantry ammunition and some supplies.
The ammunition delivered was all good stuff.
Zhang Wei asked Qiu Wei and the others to check and accept it.
After opening it, it turned out that they were indeed generous.
"Battal Commander, there are 300 grenades, as well as 5,000 rounds of 79 heavy-pointed bullets and 20,000 rounds of 79-light pointed bullets.
The heavy-pointed bullets are all German."
Qiu Wei pointed to a dozen open boxes on the ground.
Ammunition, some of the ammunition boxes are marked in German.
Two large letters "s" and "ss" are written on the outside of the boxes with white paint, which means that these boxes contain heavy-point bullets.
This ammunition box is Wei looked familiar.
The remaining light-point bullets are all domestically produced ammunition, as well as a batch of grenades produced by Gongxian Arsenal.
"Five thousand rounds of imported seventy-nine heavy-pointed bullets are usually used for light and heavy machine guns.
It is a waste to use rifles.
All the light and heavy machine guns in our hands are from the Soviet Union.
The calibers are not universal.
Let's use the light-pointed bullets first.
Brothers, please distribute them, pull down the heavy-pointed bullets and collect them."
"These imported heavy-pointed bullets should be the batch stored in Nanjing by our Corps.
Before the war in Nanjing started, a large number were taken to the Sichuan warehouse."
Zhang Wei nodded, no wonder it looked familiar, he had seen it before in Nanjing.
In order to make preparations for training and supplementation in advance before the Nanjing Defense War, the Teaching Corps transported a large number of weapons and ammunition stored in Nanjing to weapons warehouses in Sichuan for backup.
At the same time, three new corps were established to train and prepare for war in the rear.
This was also the reason why the Teaching Corps was reorganized into the 46th Division.
The reason why it can be quickly repaired later.
"Distribute light bullets and food to the brothers.
You never know when the fight will start again."
"yes" Not long after the assault column arrived, the attack operation of the main force, the 27th Army, quietly began.
The leading force was the 27th Army Regiment.
The leader of the regiment, Peng Yuexiang, ordered the entire regiment to attack in the direction of Sanyi Group and sweep away the Japanese outlying strongholds.
Peng Yuexiang was the former instructor.
The lieutenant colonel of the 3rd Regiment of the 2nd Brigade was attached to the regiment.
The lieutenant colonel attached to the regiment was equivalent to the deputy commander.
After the post-war reorganization of the Nanjing army, Peng Yuexiang became the commander of the 271st Regiment as it should be.
At six o'clock in the evening in May, it was not yet dark.
Under the supervision of officers at all levels, soldiers wearing German-style helmets swept forward in the direction of Sanyiji.
The leading battalions and companies of the 271st Regiment served as the leading companies of the battalion.
They were in the front line and launched a marching search formation.

The three platoons were arranged in an inverted triangle formation and pulled the net to search.
There are more than 100 people in the company, with recruits accounting for about 60%, and the rest are veterans of the teaching corps after the Nanjing breakout.
After the war in Nanjing, the teaching corps only gathered more than 4,000 people in Chu County, Anhui, and most of the casualties in the entire corps.
These veterans A small number were promoted to platoon commanders, and the rest were promoted to squad leaders or machine gunners of various infantry squads.
As an elite unit in the past, most of the breakout veterans were prepared to fight to the death with the Japanese.
The rifles of the entire company were equipped with bayonets and the search formation was opened.
There were two crisp gunshots, and a soldier was knocked to the ground.
"There is an enemy attack!"
The veterans in the team immediately fell to the ground and shouted to the whole company.
Just after the sound of rifles, the company that was attacked had not yet finished lying down.
Many recruits in the company were still standing stupidly, not far away.
Orange-red muzzle flashes appeared everywhere, and the crooked-handle light machine gun spurted out tongues of flame, firing at them one after another.
More than a dozen soldiers were caught off guard and fell to the ground, dead or injured.
"Da da da, da da da" The light machine gun mastered by the veterans of the company first launched a counterattack.
The light machine gun from the original Czech factory fired fiercely at the Japanese position to suppress it, and the riflemen also started shooting.
"Dispersed."
The company commander ordered the entire company to spread out to reduce casualties.
When the main battalions behind heard the gunshots, they speeded up and rushed to support the first company.
After a period of shooting, the main battalion troops and regiment troops around the first company moved forward to reinforce the first company.
However, the Japanese army's firepower was quite sparse and there was no artillery fire.
The 271st Regiment quickly judged that this was just an outpost.
In order to fight, he ordered his troops to prepare to charge and annihilate this group of Japanese troops.
A platoon of two Belgian heavy machine guns sent by the battalion's heavy machine gun company suppressed the Japanese positions first.
The newly added imported heavy machine guns fired heavy 79-caliber bullets at the Japanese positions.
The fierce firepower was There were bursts of smoke in front of the Japanese army's position.
Some Japanese soldiers were hit by machine gun bullets and died on the spot.
The suppressed firepower caused the Japanese army to stop firing back for a time, and they were so suppressed that they could not raise their heads.
"charge" As the vanguard of the company, after a burst of light and heavy machine gun suppression, the entire company quickly launched a charge with bayonets drawn.
The Japanese rifle and light machine gun firepower caused certain casualties to the attacking troops, but it was difficult to stop the attack.
The company spent ten After paying the human price, they rushed into the Japanese army's position.
The two sides started a hand-to-hand fight.
It took less than five minutes to annihilate the Japanese army in succession.
There were only fifteen corpses in the position, which was about the strength of an infantry unit.
The highest ranking among the corpses was a sergeant.
The weapons captured were all rifles except for a crooked light machine gun.
Obviously, this was deployed by the Japanese army on the periphery to delay the squadron.
Immediately afterwards, the 271st regiment continued to advance and captured several Japanese positions in succession.
Like the first position, there were not many corpses in the position.
These small battles were themselves outpost battles.
After suffering few battle casualties, the 46th Division basically cleared the small Japanese strongholds outside Sanyiji.
It is said to be a small stronghold because every time a piece of it was captured, there were very few Japanese troops inside, and they relied on simple fortifications.
Some even dug a few individual soldier pits on the spot and dared to shoot.
These Japanese troops basically They all belong to the same unit, even the same squadron, and the task of this squadron is to delay the squadron at the outermost periphery, and all the troops are dispersed.
The Japanese army's peripheral defense cannot rely solely on these.
In addition to these small strongholds, there must be a stronger and more powerful peripheral defense line behind them.

Small-scale battles between the Chinese and Japanese armies continued, and a large-scale siege had not yet occurred.
Both armies were actively preparing.
Just before Zhang Wei and the others arrived, a battalion of the 10th Artillery Regiment of the 27th Army was strengthened.
This battalion was a Shui'er's German-made 15-generation heavy artillery, and the Japanese army also received a new batch of supplies through the Yellow River ferry, including a large amount of weapons, ammunition, and medicine:
