After the preparation battalion and friendly forces captured the Japanese detachment positions, they took a short rest and recuperation.
Most of the Japanese troops in the sporadic positions were annihilated, and a small number of them fled back.
The Japanese troops who were killed, together with the results of the capture of the first position, In total, there is at least one squadron's strength, which is very important in attacking.
Attack battles are quite rare.
Under normal circumstances, being able to capture Japanese positions in an attack battle is a great victory for the Chinese army.
In the battle just now, not counting the casualties, only a squadron of Japanese soldiers were killed.
It cannot but be said that it was due to the extremely high morale of the attacking troops.
The results were good, but the cost was also high.
Zhang Wei's preparation camp was directly protected by tanks, and the number of casualties was not bad.
The two friendly battalions suffered more casualties, both with more than 100 casualties.
The soldiers' physical strength was also high in hand-to-hand combat and attack.
After seizing the Japanese detachment position group, under Zhang Wei's instruction, all attacking troops stopped pursuing.
The Japanese 59th Regiment lost two peripheral positions in a row in the battle just now.
The crazy offensive of the Chinese army made it impossible for them to hold their positions as before.
Not only the 59th Regiment, but also the Japanese troops everywhere were violently attacked by the Chinese army. , 74th Army, 27th Army, all launched attacks without risking their lives.
Ryoichi Itanishi, captain of the 59th Regiment of the Japanese Army, used a telescope to look at the lost positions in the distance outside the Sanyi Regiment.
The Chinese army's attack was rarely so sharp, and it even knocked out two of his outer positions in succession.
Although these positions themselves It was used to delay the Chinese army.
It had long been prepared to be sacrificed, but it was lost too quickly.
"Your Excellency, Captain.
The enemy's offensive is very fierce.
They are covered by tanks.
They don't care about casualties during the charge.
This is also true during hand-to-hand combat.
The strength of our army is also far inferior to that of the enemy."
A gray-faced Japanese captain said, He was the supreme commander of the first line of defense.
After the position was lost, he retreated backwards and led his troops back under the cover of skirmishers and fortifications.
They retreated, and the second line of defense covering them was almost completely wiped out.
"Although you are the outermost line of defense and the enemy is strong, you should not be lost so quickly.", "Your Excellency, Captain, I have embarrassed the regiment and failed to defend it.
Please take strict precautions against the enemy.
The enemy's morale and attack intensity are completely different from before.
It seems that within one day yesterday, morale became very high. ” Itanishi Ryoichi gave a few symbolic reprimands and then left the captain.
Itanishi Ryoichi was not surprised that the captain lost his position.
According to the Chinese army's artillery preparation and attack process, Itanishi Ryoichi had already been sensitive to it.
Changes in the Chinese Army.
The artillery fire was fierce before the attack.
The heavy artillery shells flew very far, and some even hit the vicinity of the core division headquarters of the Sanyi Group, killing many Japanese soldiers.
In addition to artillery preparations, the infantry attack was also very vigorous, with far more troops than before, and equipped with chariot cover.
Although Itanishi Ryoichi didn't know what was going on, since the Chinese army's offensive intensity had increased, his defensive operations were also more careful.
In his heart, Itanishi Ryoichi did not think that a regiment of the imperial army was engaged in defensive operations.
What can China do to the Chinese army?
It is nothing more than strengthening defense and being more careful.
"Come here, order the frontline troops to defend Zeng Qian and closely monitor the incoming Chinese army."
"Immediately observe the current movements of the Chinese military" When Ryoichi Itanishi ordered people to observe the situation of Zhang Wei and others in the headquarters, Zhang Wei and his three battalions originally planned to retreat to the first Japanese defense line they captured in order to hide.
However, they thought that if they retreated, the attack would be very difficult.

The second line of defense that comes down is equivalent to being abandoned in vain.
When the Japanese army counterattacked, the distance between the first and second lines of defense was wasted, and casualties would have to be paid again, increasing the distance of the attack.
This was something Zhang Wei and the others did not want to do.
Zhang Wei discussed it with the other two battalion commanders, and simply used the remaining fortifications of the Japanese army as a basis to dig trenches on the spot and connect the dots into lines to build a complete line of defense.
Among the busy crowd, Zhang Wei and two other battalion commanders were observing the movements of the Japanese army on the opposite side in a newly dug fortification.
The Japanese army made no move after retreating.
"The little devil is probably hurt by our beating, and he is licking his wounds now." said a battalion commander of the 276th Regiment of the 46th Division.
The two battalion commanders who fought with Zhang Wei were both from the teaching corps.
They were originally company commanders in Nanjing.
The battalion commander mentioned during the adaptation of Breakout.
"Not necessarily, maybe we are doing something.
Although we captured two Japanese positions, the Japanese army was only defeated, not dispersed.
Only one squadron of us was killed.
According to the intelligence from the regiment, the defenders were The Japanese troops in Sanyiji are at least two regiments, and we won’t do anything to them right now.”
The other battalion commander was more rational and realized that the apparent inaction of the Japanese army may not be true.
Zhang Wei looked at the Japanese position in the distance.
It was indeed very quiet.
The words of the two battalion commanders also reminded him that the attacking troops had just begun to dig fortifications.
Except for the people on guard, everyone was working.
Many people were almost exposed.
If the Japanese If a counterattack or artillery attack is launched suddenly, these people on the position will most likely have to stop eating.
"What both of you said makes sense.
We are at work now.
If we are attacked or shelled, the troops will not be able to defend ourselves.
Even if it is a simple shelling, our casualties will be considerable.
I suggest that we ask the higher-ups to cover the shelling.
First, Shell them so that the Japanese army will have more worries and dare not attack us under easy circumstances.
At the same time, we must send troops from behind to occupy the first position we captured in case of accidents.
What do you two brothers think?"
The two battalion commanders didn't think much about it.
Zhang Wei's preparation battalion played a leading role in the attack and greatly reinforced their troops.
Moreover, Zhang Wei's considerations were indeed reasonable.
The two naturally agreed with Zhang Wei's idea and immediately dispatched We sent a group of messengers back, who were from friendly forces.
They rushed to the headquarters of the 276th Regiment to apply for artillery bombardment, and then the 276th Regiment uploaded it to the 46th Division to contact them and apply for artillery bombardment.
"Hurry up and dig it out."
"The guard posts are keeping an eye on the Japanese's movements."
The fortifications that had just belonged to the Japanese army were now in full swing.
People from the three battalions were using the remaining fortifications of the Japanese army to dig out and repair bunkers.
The dust was flying on the position.
Some people did not need to work.
They walked forward for a distance and stared at the Japanese position.
The excavation of fortifications is carried out on a contract basis.
In each class, each person has a responsible section.
After each person excavates, he will work with the people in his own class.
After each class excavates the fortifications, he will work with his neighbor's class, and so on, gradually digging.

Create a temporary defensive position.
Both armies did not act rashly after the fierce battle.
After the Japanese defenders in the outer positions were defeated, they retreated.
While preparing the retreated outer defenders, the Japanese carefully judged the movements of the Chinese army and cooperated with the captain of the 59th Regiment.
It's the same as what Nishiroichi said.
Today, all the attacking Chinese troops are crazy.
In this case, the Japanese have to be careful
