Chapter 405: The Japanese Army's Assault


There was no Japanese attack as Zhang Wei imagined, and there was no movement in front of the preset position of the teaching brigade.

Fastest updates Zhang Wei looked through the observation hole at the command post, and only saw a few sneaky Japanese stragglers on the road in the distance, and they did not open fire.

Anyway, the tactical goal of the Japanese army is to reinforce Kunlun Pass, and the purpose of the teaching brigade and the new 22nd Division is to block them.

Zhang Wei sent a signal corpsman to give orders to all departments: strengthen vigilance, pay attention to the movement of enemy troops, and strengthen fortifications if necessary.

The light and heavy machine guns and mortars of the teaching brigade were aimed at the highway in the direction of Nanning, as well as the fields on both sides, and the open field.

The enemy doesn't move, and I don't move, I've been stuck here, and it's the devil who suffers.

"Captain, the commander of the 65th Regiment of the friendly army and the commander of the division headquarters sent a telegram."

The telegraph operator took two translated telegrams and handed them to Zhang Wei.

In the fierce battle just now, Zhang Wei had already sent a telegram to the 65th Regiment and the division headquarters of the newly formed 22nd Division.

After receiving the telegram, Zhang Wei read it quickly, and the reply from the headquarters of the new 22nd Division was very brief, telling him to act with the camera, and make his own decisions if necessary, as long as he did not let the Japanese troops go.

The telegram of the 65th Regiment was very long, and the regiment commander Deng Junlin, after learning that the teaching brigade had encountered a Japanese brigade, told Zhang Wei not to move, but to wait for the 65th regiment to move up.

The sixty-fifth regiment came to reinforce, of course Zhang Wei was willing, the whole brigade was holding on to the position, and it was naturally a good thing to have strong reinforcements coming, after all, it was very likely that there was a brigade opposite.

It will take some time for the 65th Regiment to arrive, and during this time, the teaching brigade will have to deal with the Japanese army alone.

The game between the two sides, Zhang Wei's next countermeasure, depends on how the Japanese army moves.

He is the defender, the blocker, the Japanese army has the first move and the initiative, and the teaching brigade also has the capital to confront in his hands, now it depends on what the Japanese army does, Zhang Wei can make the next decision.

"Call back to the division headquarters and the 65th Regiment, saying that our brigade has established a position and is in a confrontation with the Japanese army."

"Fast, Fast, Fast, Reverse" "Infantry artillery pushed up" Of course, the 1st Brigade of the 21st Wing would not wait, and the captain of the brigade, Masayuki Takeda, made a decision after observing the situation on the battlefield. offensive The task of the first brigade is to reinforce Kunlun Pass, and the attack is inevitable.

Despite the huge losses, Takeda still believed that his troops, a brigade, could use tactics against a division's squadron in the past.

The emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and Takeda intended to attack again.

So there is the current scene, the Japanese brigade on the highway entered the state of attack, the baggage trucks, cars and carriages all made room for the infantry, and the 92nd infantry artillery squad under the brigade also loaded the artillery and prepared to participate in the attack.

The 1st Brigade suffered more than 90 casualties in the ambush and scrapped the main force of a squadron, and Takeda organized the remaining 50 or so fighters into a squad to serve as a fighting force.

He planned to launch a fierce attack, break through the squadron's defensive line, and reinforce Kunlun Pass, which was the main task of the first brigade's trip.

Takeda Masayuki was ready to personally command the main forces of the two squadrons to carry out a breakthrough attack, with the aim of crushing the squadron that had just ambushed them, crushing them to quickly reinforce Kunlun Pass.

A fully staffed infantry brigade, with nearly 1,000 men after receiving reinforced baggage units and vehicles, is still strong.

The field attack of the main force of a brigade carried a lot of weight The attacking Japanese troops, centered on the road, spread out on both sides of the road.

Takeda ordered two squadrons to be on the left and right sides of the road, forming several lines of attacking skirmishers.

The brigade is a heavy machine-gun squadron that follows up infantry attacks and provides fire cover for infantry during attacks.

Two squadrons of Japanese troops stepped on the muddy ground, lined up in sparse attack formations, and stood by on both sides of the road, waiting for the captain to give the order to attack.

On the road, the infantry artillery squad directly under the 1st Brigade erected two Type 92 infantry guns on the road.

Takeda ordered the two infantry guns to provide cover for the attacking infantry and first shell the squadron positions in front.

The concealment of the artillery was not a problem, the cars and baggage trucks in the marching column of the 1st Brigade were parked on the road, and the Japanese soldiers who were preparing to attack unloaded their carry-on backpacks and bedding and piled them up.

These vehicles and fragments of the Japanese troops on the road were enough to provide shelter for the artillery, and the 92nd infantry guns were extremely low, so they were very safe.

The soldiers of the infantry artillery squad assembled the artillery and prepared the shells, and the infantry did not start to attack, but before the infantry charged, they had to carry out artillery bombardment.

The position of the teaching brigade just now shifted very quickly, and the Japanese troops, who were still in a panic at that time, did not pay careful attention.

Therefore, Takeda Masayuki asked the infantry artillery to shell first, and the target of the shelling was the fields on both sides of the road, the straw piles, and Takeda's order also had the factor that the ambush suffered too much loss just now.

That's why he had to first shell the area where the squadron might be hidden, the straw pile, the field, which was the hiding place where the officers and men of the brigade had just been taught.

The Japanese infantry in the field were half-crouching, all looking at the infantry guns on the road, and only after these two guns completed the shelling could they attack relatively safely.

Under the command of the detachment commander, the Japanese gunners shook the cradles on both wings of the 92 infantry guns, raised the barrels, and the high and low firing angles of the 92 infantry guns were 10 to 75 degrees, and the left and right firing ranges were 45 degrees, and the farthest possible shells could be dropped to 2,700 meters.

"Put" Two shells flew out of the shells and made an arc, landing in the field and straw piles next to the village on the left side of the road.

The cannonball sounded continuously, and one shell after another smashed into the ambush site of the teaching brigade just now, and the marching column of the first brigade contained a large amount of supplementary ammunition and materials, including the shells of the 92nd infantry gun, and the number of shells was enough for the infantry artillery squad to shoot openly.

Straw piles and fields were shattered by high-explosive and shrapnel shells, haystacks and vegetation that provided shelter for officers and men of the teaching brigade were blown down by steel balls from shrapnel and shrapnel shells, and sparks ignited in flammable hay.

The two guns, which were supported by sufficient shells, were not weak under the operation of the Japanese gunners.

The officers and men of the teaching brigade were in the preset positions, looking at the bombarded area, many recruits saw the Japanese shelling for the first time, just now, the bombed place was still a hiding place, the veterans were in the trenches, and seemed to be accustomed to this kind of scene, while the recruits only had the word fear.

The preset position built by Zhang Wei has played a great role, and if there is no preset position, but the officers and men are left in a stunned place, the consequences are simply unimaginable.

"Prepare for battle, pay attention to concealment" In the preset trenches of the teaching brigade, the battle orders of the squad and platoon commanders were constantly issued.
