The battle between the two sides came to an end, and Takeda Masayuki's 1st Brigade and Zhang Wei's Teaching Brigade were like two beasts after a fight, licking their wounds and recovering their strength in their respective territories.
Fastest updates Nanbin Highway, the starting place of the first brigade, Takeda Masayuki looked at the position in front of him that had not been taken, and shook his head helplessly, on the road, the soldiers of the first brigade were embarrassed to lean against the car, and the cart was resting next to the cart of supplies, and the baggage truck was full of wounded soldiers who were dragged down.
These wounded soldiers were all rescued from the battlefield, and the injuries were not light, some broke their legs, some were hit in the stomach, and the worst thing was that they were blinded by grenadiers.
The first brigade had already failed in the attack, the newly defeated Japanese army was not in high spirits, and the wailing of the wounded soldiers further weakened the morale of the soldiers.
Masayuki Takeda and the First Brigade tried and tested their style of play, but this time, they couldn't succeed.
Takeda continued to comb and reflect on his command, from the initial ambush to the failure of the frontal assault, and throughout the battle, his troops were in a state of passive beating, and through engagement, he found that the firepower of these squadrons was fierce During the battle, Takeda Masayuki did not treat them as the same squadrons, but now it seems that he still greatly underestimated these squadrons.
Dare to calmly fight with the imperial army bayonet, and dare to fight a counterattack, by no means an ordinary squadron, Takeda fought all the way from Guangxi, even if he fought with the Guangxi army on the right track, after entering the state of stabbing is also a touch of collapse, the light enemy who is used to these troops finally hit a wall in this battle.
Takeda Masayuki looked at the soldiers of this brigade on the road, and suddenly felt a trace of guilt in his heart, his own decision-making led to a large number of casualties among them, of course, he would never regret it, let alone grieve because of the death of the soldiers.
The emperor, who died in battle for the emperor and was loyal to the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, deserved it, but he just regretted the worthlessness of these soldiers' casualties.
The battle was going to go on anyway, and Takeda calmed down the defeat of the attack, the casualties were left behind, and the plan of attack against the opposite position was once again in Takeda's mind.
Reports Takeda looked back, and the brigade adjutant with his arms hanging was standing beside him with a telegram.
"Your Excellency, Captain, a telegram has been sent from the Wing."
When Takeda heard this, his face was a little bad, and after the defeat of the offensive teaching brigade just now, he summarized the specific battle situation into a telegram and sent it to the headquarters of the 21st Wing.
Takeda, like many Japanese officers, was reluctant to admit defeat, and who wanted to admit that he had lost a battle with the squadron, but as a soldier, Takeda still sent the telegram, after all, these circumstances would even affect the overall situation of the battle.
"Say it."
Takeda said with a gloomy face.
"Your Excellency Wing Commander Miki sent a telegram, I have known the battle situation of this brigade, and we are fighting, it is the enemy Chiang Central Army's Fifth Army, and it is also this enemy who is besieging Kunlun Pass, the wing commander ordered us to rest and recuperate, and prepare to attack again, the brigade has coordinated the aircraft, these planes reinforcing Kunlun Pass will first assist the brigade in attacking, bombing the enemy positions on both sides of the road, and the wing commander asks us to take the enemy positions as soon as possible after the bombing and reinforce Kunlun Pass."
Air support, this is good news, the Fifth Division landed in Qinzhou Bay, the landing station was very late, and there was also air support.
Takeda's face was a little better: "Also, the captain didn't mention the follow-up reinforcements and the battle situation at Kunlun Pass."
"The captain of the wing sent a telegram during the attack, and the report said that the wing lacked cars, and the second brigade behind the brigade was personally led by His Excellency the captain of the Miki wing, and now the whole team has not yet set off, the enemy troops on the Kunlun Pass attacked fiercely, and successively captured several highlands of our army, and the garrison of our army in Kunlun Pass also desperately counterattacked, and now it is in the tug-of-war, and the position is still in our hands."
Takeda nodded, the direction of Kunlun Pass was not bad, and he was relieved in his heart, after all, his first brigade was directly tasked with reinforcing Kunlun Pass.
Now that he was blocked on the Nanbin Highway, his first brigade failed to break through the blockade, and the battle situation at Kunlun Pass was directly affected, and he and the first brigade should bear the main responsibility. got the news that Kunlun Pass was still in his hands, and Takeda was secretly glad in his heart.
The current situation is not good or bad for Takeda, but fortunately, the defenders of Kunlun Pass are very able to hold on and have not been captured.
The troops that reinforced Kunlun Pass were divided into two groups.
The first group was the second brigade of Takeda Masayuki, and the second group was the second brigade personally led by the commander of the 21st Wing, Miki Yoshinosuke.
In other words, Takeda has to fight against the squadron alone and rush to Kunlun Pass alone, which makes Takeda a little worried.
However, the overall situation is still within Takeda's acceptable range, and air support in particular is of great benefit to the attack.
"Let the troops rest up."
Takeda said to the adjutant of the brigade that the newly defeated soldiers need to rest and recuperate before they can fight a new attack.
"One, two, up" "Lost the wood" On the positions of the teaching brigade, which were strewn with craters after the shelling, the officers and men were cleaning up the positions and corpses, shouting trumpets, and the 351 gang was either carrying the corpses, or carrying ammunition, or demolishing the damaged house fortifications.
Zhang Wei and the three squadron leaders gathered together in the village trenches of the first squadron, and after the fierce battle, the original clean position became a mess, but the traffic trenches in the village were very clean, and the casualties and losses were reported, and more than 800 people in the brigade were instructed, and more than 100 casualties were lost, and the combat strength of the main force of the brigade was still there.
Zheng Yiqun wrapped a piece of gauze around his neck and asked, "Captain, what should we do next?"
After counting the losses of the altars and jars, the next thing to discuss was naturally the further combat problem.
"Captain, the devils shouldn't attack again in a short time, I just noticed it, there are nearly a hundred corpses they have left here, and the attack needs to be intermittent, the devil has suffered such a big loss, it is impossible to fight back quickly."
Qiu Wei's No. 1 Squadron, in the battle just now, was the most calm and least stressful of the three squadrons, and he had the energy to pay attention to the losses of the Japanese army.
Zheng Yiqun and Mu Chao can't do it, Mu Chao is alone on the right side of the road, Zheng Yiqun is even worse, he was broken through the position, if he hadn't sent an engineer platoon to reinforce in time, it is estimated that he would have been martyred If you want to say what to do next, Zhang Wei can't make a decision now, tell them that the teaching brigade has just repelled a Japanese attack, retreat, it is impossible at present, and the attack is impossible to talk about, there is a Japanese brigade opposite, and it is a fool's dream to want to eat them, the next attack of the Japanese army will definitely be more fierce, Zhang Wei weighed the two sides in his heart, and the best choice for the teaching brigade seems to be to deploy on the spot "Captain, friendly troops are coming" When several people were undecided, Zhang Wei's signal corps ran over, and in the distance, behind the village, a large number of troops appeared
