When the Japanese army attacked, Zhang Wei judged from the reports of the search troops that this group of Japanese troops galloping for reinforcements was most likely the size of a large group.
Fastest update The top priority is to block them.
The Japanese army's tactical purpose is very simple, which is to rescue Kunlun Pass, which is being besieged by the Fifth Army.
From the teaching brigade to the new 22nd Division, the task given by the Fifth Army is to block Japanese reinforcements.
A brigade is the most commonly used tactical unit of the Japanese army.
In terms of comprehensive strength and firepower, an infantry brigade can attack an infantry division in the field.
If it were really an infantry brigade, the pressure on the teaching brigade would be considerable.
Judging from the march situation, the distance between the teaching brigade and the 65th regiment behind them was very far.
The Japanese army was advancing very fast.
The teaching brigade had to fight against this Japanese army alone in a short period of time.
However, Zhang Wei was very calm.
He had been practicing as a soldier for so long, wasn't it just to use stronger combat ability to cause more losses to the Japanese army?
In terms of momentum, we cannot lose, and in terms of tactics, we must pay great attention to it.
After the combat readiness order was issued, the entire brigade immediately changed from a rest state to a combat readiness state, and asked the telegraph soldiers to contact the 65th Regiment to report military information.
The squadron leaders gathered at the brigade headquarters in the village to hold a pre-war meeting.
"This is the general situation of the Japanese army.
I will issue combat orders below."
Zhang Wei got straight to the point.
He first introduced the movements of the Japanese army to the squadron leaders, and then proposed his own battle plan.
On the table was a rough march map, with a red pencil placed in the middle of the Nanbin Highway. , represents the general location of the village where the teaching brigade is located.
The Japanese army has not discovered the teaching brigade so far.
Thanks to the search troops, Zhang Wei had an advantage over the Japanese army and discovered the enemy army early.
Taking advantage of this advantage, he planned to ambush the Japanese army first and take advantage of them.
The sudden attack caused them instant massive casualties.
"The Japanese army will arrive soon.
Each squadron will build fortifications first.
The first squadron and the troops directly under the brigade will strengthen the fortification positions in the village.
The second squadron will dig trenches on the right side of the road.
The third squadron will build fortifications outside the village on the left side of the road."
"Excavate as quickly as possible.
I will only give you one hour.
After the construction is completed, the main force of the whole brigade will enter the fields and straw piles and hide in the fields.
Only a small number of soldiers will be left in the fortifications to observe.
The main force will prepare for battle in the hidden area and prepare to ambush the Japanese army."
Mu Chao asked: "Captain, we can completely catch the Japanese army off guard now.
Brothers are hiding in the fields and straw piles on both sides.
Isn't it a bit redundant to dig fortifications carefully?"
In Mu Chao's mind, he still had the idea of getting a vote and leaving.
In previous battles, the teams led by Mu Chao and Zhang Wei were generally used as the key force of the assault force, and they rarely fought against the Japanese.
Mu Chao said these words, which shows that the inherent impression of previous battles still affects him.
But this time, it is a battle with the purpose of blocking What Zhang Wei wanted to do was to attack the Japanese army as much as possible, delay the Japanese army, and cause them greater losses.
"It's not redundant, not redundant at all.
Mu Chao, think about it.
With such a large Japanese army, if we attack their ambush, it will cause casualties at first, but it will only take a while to change positions.
After we open fire, the Japanese army will definitely There will be a quick counterattack, and the fortifications must be dug.”

The combat method of ambush is used to fight against a large group of Japanese troops.
It is impossible to continue fighting.
Therefore, Zhang Wei divided the combat method of reinforcing the Japanese army into two stages.
First, they used ambushes to hide in fields and straw piles, killing Japanese troops on a large scale in these natural hiding places.
Then they entered the dug fortifications and fought to the death with the Japanese troops, turning into positional warfare and tug-of-war.
"First ambush the Japanese troops in the fields and haystacks, follow the orders of the brigade, quickly enter the preset positions and trenches after the ambush, prepare to fight to the death, ambush warfare, position warfare, must be converted."
Zhang Wei was determined and the officers had no choice but to follow orders, not to mention that they had no objection to Zhang Wei's arrangements.
Zhang Wei then arranged the classification and use of the heavy firepower squadron: "The heavy machine guns of the heavy firepower squadron are assigned to each squadron.
The mortar platoon will follow the commander of my brigade and control the first squadron, and the firing boundary will be divided to ensure that the firepower can block the roads and surrounding fields.”
"The first squadron in the village, the third squadron in the position next to the village, and the second squadron on the right side of the road opposite the village, remember to connect a line of defense to block the Japanese army's approach."
"yes" Li Shaoyan, captain of the heavy firepower squadron, replied.
Engineer platoon leader He Jinhai also looked eager to try: "Captain, where is our engineer platoon?"
The engineer platoon has always been the elite in Zhang Wei's hands, and He Jinhai himself hopes that this sharp knife can be used as soon as possible.
"Fight with the brigade, you will be put to good use."
Zhang Wei said.
The engineer platoon is an elite, but at this time it doesn't make much difference whether it is used or not.
After the combat order was read out, Qiu Wei, Mu Chao, Zheng Yiqun, He Jinhai, He Kun and others gathered in the brigade headquarters and looked at Zhang Wei.
Even though the enemy's strength was estimated to be a large group, the officers showed no fear.
Zhang Wei slammed his hand on the map, causing the red pencil to fly away: "This battle is the first battle of our teaching brigade.
After training for such a long time, raising troops for thousands of days, and using troops for a while, all of them are fought If you are energetic, whether you can use it depends on today's battle."
"yes" After the short meeting, the squadron leader and platoon commanders went down to the troops and personally led the people to organize the fortifications.
Zhang Wei also participated in the construction of the village fortifications with the first squadron.
According to Zhang Wei's tactical vision, the preset fortifications to be constructed mainly consist of three parts: the village, the open space next to the village, the open space, and the open space on the right side of the road opposite the village.
There is good shooting range in the open fields, and the village itself is a fortification.
These fortifications will not be used in ambush battles, and only a small number of troops will be reserved.
They will not really come into play until the tug-of-war and blocking battles begin.
The officers and soldiers of the brigade are taught to stay in straw piles and grass in the field during an ambush. hidden.
However, before the battle, the brigade needs to be taught to build the preset fortifications.
Responsible for the construction of fortifications in the open field, the soldiers of the 2nd and 3rd squadron dug out the soil from the open field with picks, first built foxholes, and finally lined up the connecting points to form trenches.
Then they added machine gun trenches, concealed parts and Traffic ditches and other auxiliary facilities.
Time was tight and the task was heavy, so the soldiers worked hard.
He Kun's Troops Troop and He Jinhai's Engineer Platoon, which did not have separate defense areas and tasks, also invested in the construction of fortifications.
Zhang Wei and the First Squadron were busy in the village, using sandbags brought by the baggage train to add soil, strengthening the houses, and using shovels and picks to open shooting holes in the walls of the houses facing the direction of Nanning, which was the direction from which the Japanese reinforcements came.
All ministries distributed ammunition at the same time and inspected rifles before battle.
The first brigade of the 21st Regiment is on the way, and the teaching brigade has prepared traps for them
