If the reinforcements led by Miki Yoshinosuke were determined to move forward, in fact, the ditch blown up by the engineer platoon would not be able to stop them for long, but because they had been ambushed by the Chinese army before, the grenade in the ditch killed the avant-garde search soldiers of Miki's troops.
So Miki Yoshinosuke instinctively suspected that there were hidden Chinese troops nearby, and stopping to build roads could only be said to be a purpose, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to search the surroundings all night to prevent sneak attacks and ambushes It was also an important factor, it was a big night, and if the Chinese army really launched an ambush, it would not be pleasant Night is the best cover, it is an incomparable disadvantage for the ambushed side, when it comes to night fighting, Miki's troops are actually not frightened, he is afraid of endless attacks and piecemeal casualties, so he simply took the initiative to send infantry to find and destroy the Chinese army that may be ambushed by building roads All night, the infantry of Miki's troops were conducting mobile searches and repairing roads in the nearby fields, and the trucks were all turning on their headlights to illuminate the fields near the highway to prevent someone from raiding.
The infantry attached to Miki's unit searched all night under the illumination of the headlights, and its anti-aircraft guns and heavy machine guns lined up on the road, with the road as the core, to guard the field on both sides and cover the infantry search.
A night is neither long nor short, but it was too long for the infantry of Miki's unit, searching through the potholed fields and not sleeping all night, but for the soldiers of the 1st Brigade at the front, this night that could be used to rest was not long enough.
Miki's troops were unable to advance, and the 1st Brigade of the 21st Wing, which had been ordered to recuperate overnight, resumed the attack in the early morning of the 20th.
During the night, the 1st Brigade was well rested, and all the Japanese soldiers became very frantic when they received the order to attack in the early morning, and they had the momentum of trying to get their face back on the battlefield.
After the Takeda Brigade was replenished, the total strength of the brigade was restored to three infantry squadrons, and there were also heavy machine gun squadrons, infantry artillery squads, baggage troops, automobiles, etc., and the total strength was restored to more than 700 people.
After receiving reinforcements from Miki's troops, the morale of the entire Takeda Brigade was very high, and among the Japanese troops who were indignant, the third squadron of the second infantry of the 21st Wing, which had recently been reinforced, was the most crazy, and this squadron was drawn from Miki's troops, and it was just reinforced to the Takeda Brigade yesterday.
The Guyuan Squadron came from the 2nd Brigade of the 21st Wing, which had not been in a big battle, and all the soldiers wanted to compete with the Chinese army.
In their impression, even if the Chinese army had strong combat effectiveness, under the continuous and fierce attacks of the imperial army, it would hold its position several times at most, and eventually it would be defeated.
For the other soldiers of the Takeda Brigade, the soldiers of the Guyuan Squadron were very disdainful in their hearts, and they expressed it very obviously, and the soldiers of the Takeda Brigade were also secretly unhappy in their hearts.
The soldiers of the Guyuan squadron thought that the tragic situation of the Takeda Brigade and the request for help were completely incompetent, and it was precisely because of incompetence that they would be beaten like this, and the high-spirited soldiers of the Guyuan squadron couldn't wait to show their "martial arts." ” If you haven't been beaten, you don't know that the flesh hurts, this sentence is particularly suitable for the Guyuan squadron, the Fifth Division has a long history, it is the first batch of army divisions to be established, and the history of fighting with the Chinese army can be traced back to 1894 outside Pyongyang, from Pyongyang City, to today's Guangxi Battle, the Fifth Division is almost undefeated against the Chinese army Seeing that the morale of the Guyuan squadron was high, Takeda Masayuki simply pushed the boat down the river and ordered the Guyuan squadron to take the lead and launch an attack on the Chinese army's position.
Takeda Masayuki is not only because of the high morale and strong strength of the Guyuan squadron, but also because of a faint "unpleasant." ” The appearance of the soldiers of the Guyuan squadron showing off their might in front of the soldiers of the Takeda Brigade made Takeda, the leading officer, feel a little uncomfortable, and simply let the Guyuan squadron go up to attack the enemy and attack the enemy, which was somewhat ill-intentioned to make the Guyuan squadron suffer a little loss.
Squadron Leader Gu Yuan Masa patted his chest and accepted the order, his infantry squadron had been assigned to the command of the first brigade of Takeda Masayuki, and he should accept the order, in addition, like the soldiers of the squadron, Gu Yuan also wanted to perform well.
Takeda Masayuki, the captain of the 1st Infantry Brigade of the 21st Wing, stayed awake almost all night, and the whole person was extremely excited, and the reinforcements he received, as well as the trucks and ammunition that came with him, gave Takeda Masayuki, a young officer, a shot in the arm.
At the command post of the Takeda Brigade, Takeda Masayuki put down the urging telegram he had received last night, and after making a simple deployment, he gave the order to attack the Chinese army's positions on all fronts.
The Japanese moved very quickly, indeed, and the battle began early in the morning, without warning, and began with a rough artillery bombardment.
The attack began with a surprise artillery attack, and the two 92 infantry guns of the Takeda Brigade were lined up on the firing position and opened fire.
The Guyuan squadron that was attacking did not rush forward directly, but let these two infantry guns prepare for artillery fire, that is, first prepare for artillery fire, and then let the infantry attack.
"Target, two shotguns from the enemy's left flank position, prepare, put" "Boom" Two cannon shots rang out, and the Japanese gunners pulled the gun rope and fired a series of shrapnel filled with prefabricated fragments, and two columns of smoke immediately rose from the position of the first battalion of the 65th Regiment Two Type 92 infantry guns played the role of suppressing the artillery, firing at the positions of the teaching brigade and the 1st battalion of the 65th Regiment in turn, and the depleted cartridges were piled up next to the artillery.
The 92nd Infantry Artillery Squad to which the Takeda Brigade belonged, compared to the two guns, had very sufficient shells, enough for them to squander them wantonly, probably because of the morale boost of reinforcements, and the firing speed of the Japanese gunners was much faster than usual.
Columns of smoke and shells fell on the positions of the teaching brigade and the 1st battalion of the 65th regiment "Don't mess up, don't mess up" The voice of the squad platoon commander taught the first-line position of the brigade in the first-line position of the teaching brigade, and the soldiers of the 1st and 2nd squadrons were lying down, some hiding in the anti-artillery holes, and some hiding in the corners of the communication trenches Read the URL: Recommend the new book of the urban god Lao Shi::
