During the short battlefield gap at noon, neither side of the war was idle.

The Chinese army was dispatching troops to strengthen the defenders on Fujin Mountain, and the Japanese army opposite were also reviewing the morning war and planning an afternoon attack.

"Jijiaojun, how many imperial soldiers were killed and killed in the attack you commanded in the morning?" Lieutenant General Ogisuro, the commander of the 13th Division of the Japanese Army, asked Colonel Liangjiao Yezuo, the acting brigade commander of the 26th Brigade, who attacked Fujinshan in the morning, in a plain tone.

"Your Excellency the division commander, it has been counted that our army fought with the "Chinese" army in the morning on the front line of Fujin Mountain. " Colonel Yezuo reported to the division commander with a shameful expression that he had encountered bloody and had nothing to find in front of Fujin Mountain.

"Mr. Liangjiao, I'll ask you a question. What do you think the combat characteristics of this newly transferred Chinese army on Fujin Mountain have? What are the differences between these two Chinese armies compared to the original 71st Army of the Chinese army?" Lieutenant General Ogisu was not idiotic. One morning was enough for him to judge from all signs that the Chinese army blocking the front of his troops had been replaced.

"Lieutenant General, the 71st Army of the Chinese army has a steady, flexible and tenacious combat style. The infantry of the 71st Army has a tacit understanding of the cooperation between various heavy firepowers, especially in the use of light mortars. The excellent tactical skills it shows are almost the same as those of the Imperial Army in some aspects. However, it is far inferior to the "Imperial" Army in hand-to-hand combat."

Liangjiao Yezuo said this, paused for a moment, looked up at his commander. He wanted to observe the attitude of the division commander. After all, his words sounded a little bit like a matter for the enemy.

"Very good. As a front-line commander, Liangjiaojun is still very rational. In the future, don't call the "Chinese" army any more. Those who use despicable names are stupid for their strong enemies! We should all remember in our hearts that we are senior officers of the empire, not those young soldiers who are passionate and crazy, nor are they politicians who sit in the country and shout slogans like that. Then you continue to say, what are the combat characteristics of the newly transferred Chinese army today?" If the commander of his subordinates had such a high evaluation of the combat power of the Chinese army in front of the commander of the Ogisu Division. The Lieutenant General of the Ogisu Army would never be so kind, let alone praise the other party.

But after Fujinshan suffered twice in the 71st Army, Lieutenant General Ogisu, who still had a certain pragmatic spirit of a soldier, had already transferred the Chinese army, at least the Chinese army on Fujinshan to the same position as his own, so he could only listen to these words from Colonel Bike.

"Yes! Your Excellency. Just my subordinates observed the newly transferred Chinese army fighting our army on the main peak this morning. They found that this Chinese army was very awkward when using hot weapons, especially infantry defense operations such as heavy machine guns and mortars, and the shooting accuracy was not high. However, when using cold weapons to fight our army, they showed a strong fighting will. I witnessed a Chinese officer who made the original spear in a telescope and killed five of our officers and soldiers within ten minutes. It can be said that this is a strong brigade in the cold weapons era, a weak brigade in the hot weapons era, and their glory should be in the "safe age"!" After correcting his name for the Chinese army, Colonel Two explained his insights.

"If you were asked to command the attack in the afternoon, what kind of adjustments would you make in the tactics."

"Sir, after careful observation this morning, I discovered an interesting phenomenon. When our army launched a close shooting with this new Chinese army, the pressure on this Chinese army was the greatest. If you still trust me, I will personally command the troops to rush to the main peak and conduct continuous close shooting with the Chinese army. In this way, relying on the shooting accuracy of the imperial soldiers that are much stronger than the opponent and the effectiveness of infantry weapons, it will force the opponent to suffer huge casualties in the shooting with our army. I believe that as long as the two armies shoot at close range for about an hour, the entire Chinese army will collapse." Colonel Yezuo from the two armies asked Sakura with a sigh.

"Qianjiaojun, I will strengthen a brigade from the troops assigned by the 16th Division to you. At the same time, from Yamamoto-yuanjun, the 103rd Brigade, I will transfer a brigade to you as your reserve team and give it to you when needed. Of course, I will ask them to give your troops strong combat guidance. Qianjiaojun, please ask the matter of Fujinshan!" Lieutenant General Ogisu's new tactics proposed by Colonel Nishisu, otherwise, he would not have strengthened such troops and promised to have strong air support at that time.

"Please rest assured, you must be on the main peak of Fujin Mountain at dusk at the latest!"

Colonel Two is still very grateful for the great support for the operation that the division commander could propose to him. As an acting brigade commander, he is very clear about how many troops the Japanese army currently has in front of Fujin Mountain (unlike the pre-war guesses by the generals of the 18th Army, the main force of the Japanese 16th Division had attacked Huangchuan a few days ago, and part of the 20th Division of the Japanese army had also entered Shawo to fight with the 30th Army of the Chinese army.

At this time, there were only the 38th Regiment of the 13th Division of the Japanese Army and the 30th Brigade rebuilt by the 16th Division, and some artillery units of the 16th Division and the 20th Division. Because of the Japanese troops of these troops, the Japanese army have been severely damaged by the Chinese army in recent days, and the total force at this time was only about 23,000.) The division commander was able to strengthen his brigade at one time. The two complete brigades showed the high hopes that the division commander had placed on him.

If General Huang, Cheng Jiaji, or any general of the 18th Army had the opportunity to hear the conversation between these two Japanese generals, I believe they would be very grateful.

Colonel Liangjiao Yezuo's idea of ​​formulating tactics according to the characteristics of the Chinese army is good. If it is used on ordinary Chinese army, even if the opponent's troops are elite, they will suffer a little loss.

But this combat plan is only used on the 18th Army, which is a super hodgepodge, and it is a bit unfair to implement it.

The reason why the Japanese tactics are difficult to work is actually not the problem of the Japanese army itself. The key is that the 18th Army does not have a unified combat style at all. It is Lieutenant General Huang, the highest commander of the 18th Army, could not understand what the combat style of the 18th Army was. If you insist on saying that, there would be at least four combat styles within the 18th Army at the same time. At this time, Lieutenant General Huang was forced to use various different establishment troops to fight against the Japanese army for reasons within the 18th Army.

In this case, if the Japanese go to engage in targeted battles, wouldn’t they beg themselves?

As soon as the Japanese attack stopped in the morning, Lieutenant General Huang made the necessity of reinforcement of two regiments on the front line of Fujin Mountain. The attack launched by the Japanese army was proven in less than a few hours.

Before three o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese army rushed to launch a new round of full-scale attacks on the Fujin Mountain front.

The Japanese spent a lot of money to win Fujin Mountain this time. The number of aircraft that were invested in bombing the main peak of Fujin Mountain alone reached an unprecedented fourteen. The fourteen Japanese bombers covered the sky above the main peak of Fujin Mountain. The bombs dropped by Japanese planes were so dense that they even collided and self-destructed in the air.

The position of the Chinese army on the main peak of Fujin Mountain.

In a very short time, the Japanese bombs and artillery shells had already blown up the surface of the Chinese army's positions. Many Chinese officers and soldiers were buried in the floating soil of Japanese bombs and artillery shells. But it was not safe to be buried in the soil. From time to time, bombs dropped by Japanese aircraft exploded into bloody rains in a certain place. The bodies of the officers and soldiers who were buried in the soil were shaken or buried alive were blown into meat mud and plasma by the Japanese bombs and artillery shells, and they were flying all over the sky on the positions.

"The Japanese have too much steel. According to this formation, after the battle is over, we can build thousands of guns by collecting bomb shrapnel from the Japanese army!" Qin Qingsheng, the chief of staff of the 97th Independent Brigade who was crawling in a large bomb crater, helped his own helmet so shocked that he couldn't wear a steel helmet, shouted to Zhongyuan.

"Has that Central Army hidden on the mountainside?" He climbed into the crater and was covered with the blood of his own officers and soldiers. He was not interested in listening to his staff's witty words at this time. He is only concerned about whether the regiment of the New 72nd Division, which was under his command, can escape the bombing of the Japanese.

"I went to the regiment of the New 72nd Division before the Japanese plane bombed. They were all hidden tightly. The regiment was on the mountainside again. It was not the focus of the Japanese bombing, so the losses should not be too great."

"That's good. The Japanese are coming up later. Whether we can defend the position today depends on theirs." This is the first time in our military career in Central Plains.

But he had no choice. After only a long time of fighting, his Independent Ninety-Seventh Brigade was actually disabled.

If there was no support from other troops, he would die for the rest of the day. He could not defend his position. Death! He was not afraid to the Central Plains! From the day he left Sichuan to fight against Japan, he had no intention of returning to Sichuan alive. His family had arranged a civil war for half a lifetime. So many Chinese people died in the years. He didn't feel anything to be criticized for his country in the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War. But the position was about to be lost. He was not only sorry to the people of the Central Plains, but also to the tens of thousands of brothers who had already sprinkled their blood here! When they handed over the position to him, they had no shortage of land.

Not only in the preparation of firepower, the Japanese used planes, but the Japanese infantry deployed more generously in this attack than last time. The Japanese army came up from the main peak alone and the remaining troops of two brigades reached more than 2,000.

Under the personal supervision of Colonel Yezuo of the Two Rods, the Japanese army braved the risk of being accidentally injured by their own artillery fire and bombs dropped by the planes, and quickly advanced to the positions of the Chinese army on the main peak.

Seeing that the situation was critical, the Chinese army's artillery did not care about the danger of being destroyed by the Japanese heavy artillery after being discovered by the Japanese observation center, and took the risk to launch artillery bombardment on the Japanese army advancing to the main peak on the Fujin Mountain.

The Japanese artillery units, which had a great advantage in quantity and quality, immediately suppressed the Chinese artillery and destroyed the artillery. The artillery of the Chinese army scattered on several positions was severely damaged by the Japanese artillery fire, but they were still frequently transferring positions while continuing to continue to launch artillery attacks on the Japanese infantry.

It took a long time before the Japanese plane left. But at this time the Japanese infantry had advanced to the Chinese military position on the main peak, less than 300 meters away.

"Hurry and ask someone to inform the regiment of the New Seventy-Second Division to let them get up soon. If it is too late, it will be too late!" He was dug out of the soil by several staff members and shouted loudly to the Central Plains.

"They have come up!" A staff officer said, pointing to the large figure rushing towards the main peak from the mountainside controlled by the Chinese army, braved the loose artillery fire of the Japanese army.

"Shooting." Under the command of Colonel Yezuo, the Japanese army rushed to a position less than 150 meters away from the Chinese army, and then all fell down and immediately launched an attack with the Chinese army.

At the beginning, Colonel Yezuo's new tactics had a certain effect. When the infantry firepower of the Chinese army was suppressed by the Japanese army. After the two sides fired at each other for less than twenty minutes, there was a locally shaking danger like the morning.

Seeing the grey local cloth military uniforms and straw sandals, the Chinese soldiers were about to be unable to withstand it. Seeing some scenes, Colonel Yezu, who had always been introverted, was also excited inexplicably.

Fujin Mountain! The main peak of Fujin Mountain is about to be taken down by himself! It was this Fujin Mountain that made the 13th Division a laughing stock of the entire imperial army for more than ten days. The entire division could not even take up a small hill that was not very steep, and it was still losing troops at the foot of the mountain. Even his former leader of the 26th Brigade, Major General Shigetoku Numata, was seriously injured by the Chinese army here.

As long as I take down the two corners of this main peak, I believe that by relying on my own words to avenge the shame of the 13th Division, I should be able to remove the word "agent" on my head. Of course, I can naturally become the Major General.

Just as Colonel Yezuo was immersed in his own fantasy of success and fame, the sudden joining of a Chinese army about a regiment interrupted his longing for the future.

After obtaining reinforcements from a regiment of the Central Army, the Chinese army relied on its numerical advantage and great firepower to strengthen the Japanese army in the shooting.

What is even more unfavorable to the Japanese army is that the newly-emerged Chinese troops not only have many automatic firearms, but also have good gunships, but also have a lower advantage in melee firepower than the Japanese army. The Japanese only rely on their precise gunship to hold on in this battle.

"Baga." After realizing that his dream was difficult to come true, Colonel Yezuo, who was unwilling to fail like this, led the Japanese army to conduct fierce firefighting with the Chinese army, and fired two signal flares and asked for help from the foot of the mountain.

"Let the brigade of the 103rd Brigade go to support the two-jiaojun immediately!" Although Lieutenant General Ogisu was not very satisfied with the effect of today's attack, he also knew that this was the critical moment. Only by pulling two-jiaojun and one can the battle situation on the mountain promote the development of the direction that is beneficial to the Japanese army. Lieutenant General Ogisu did not dare to use heavy artillery fire in such a situation where both armies were close together, so he could only increase his troops.

"I'm going to shoot against me! We don't have more heavy artillery, we don't have more aircraft, submachine guns, grenade launchers, and small cannons. Order the Independent 100th Division to immediately send a regiment to the main peak and order the 56th Division to fully connect the side peaks of Fujin Mountain. Now the troops on the side peak are temporarily under his command of Gu Guoxiong, and they will be built in the evening. Let the other troops be ready for combat. Order all participating troops in the army. If that unit loses its position, one battalion position will lose me and shoot the battalion commander, and one regiment position will lose me and shoot the regiment commander.

By analogy, even if I kill someone Huang, I will never be ruthless! According to this style of play, I see how many days you can last. With the 40,000 people in my hands, I can't kill you and can defeat you." Lieutenant General Huang was also anxious. Moreover, he had received an enemy information notice from the Third Corps at this time, and knew that the Japanese army in front of him had only about 25,600 or so troops, and he was so arrogant because of heavy artillery. As Lieutenant General Huang's confidence increased, he was determined to fight the Japanese with the first day of the war.

"Boss Cheng, I'll go."

After the army's orders came, Wen Songyuan ran to Cheng Jiaji to ask for a fight. In fact, he had been staying in the division headquarters this day, just to seize the opportunity to go to the main peak.

For most of the day, the movement ahead was something Wen Songyuan had never seen before, but he, a militant (Cheng Jiaji's words.), could only watch from behind, which made him feel bored. When he had the opportunity to go up and have a good time with the Japanese, he could still sit there.

"Wen Lao Er, it's time for you to go into battle. What's the battle going on? Will the future be long? It's better to draw a group from your team and let Ma Siyuan take it there." Cheng Jiaji made an unchangeable decision after asking Qian Shen for his opinion with his eyes.

"Deputy Brigade Commander Ma, the regiment you bring with you should bring more automatic firearms and small cannons, so don't carry so many rifles. In addition to snipers, other riflesmen try to help bring more automatic firearms bullets. I will bring you the Division Guard Battalion. They have more submachine guns, so you should move up quickly and quickly! After your troops go to the main peak, don't charge against the Japanese army, so you can rely on firepower to "bully" the Japanese. After you hit the Japanese, you will immediately withdraw. If there are too many people on the main peak, you will only become the target of the Japanese gun!"

Cheng Jiaji handed over the work of appeaseing Wen Songyuan to Qian Shen, and he himself assigned tasks to Ma Siyuan who came with Wen Songyuan.

When the regiment of the 100th Independent Division went up, the Japanese army's troops on the mountain had increased by a large troop. The firepower of the Chinese and Japanese armies on the main peak had entered a white-hot stage. It was no longer as good as the Japanese army that had been prepared for a long time. After more than an hour of bullets, the Chinese army had already consumed almost the same bullets. In order to save bullets, the Chinese army had to reduce the shooting speed. Once the Chinese army's firepower weakened, the Japanese army naturally gained the upper hand in the firepower. The situation is now the opposite of what had just happened. Now the Chinese army is holding on with its condescending advantage.

"Battle me to death!" Ma Siyuan's troops came up in crisis. Their joining immediately made the Chinese army's firepower more than twice.

After a long period of intense high-intensity shooting, the Japanese army, which was at the end of their strength in both physical and mental strength, could withstand such fierce firepower. Even if the Japanese had more soldiers, they could not withstand the crazy firing of five or six hundred submachine guns of this unit of the Independent 100 Division and the concentrated bombardment of dozens of 60 mortars and grenade launchers.

"Please cover the artillery fire, we retreat!" Seeing that the situation was too late, Colonel Yezhao decisively issued a retreat order.

"Colonel, we can still stick here." A Japanese junior officer disagreed with the colonel's decision. In his opinion, the Japanese army spent such a big price to stay on the mountain. Isn't it a waste of all efforts to retreat now?

"Baga! If you don't retreat now, can you drag it until dark and let the Chinese people come over at night to cut off our heads?" Colonel Liangjiao Yezuo subconsciously touched the scar on his neck. It was a "gift" left to him during the night attack at Xifengkou six years ago.

At that time, the two-legged master, who had not been hiding quickly, would have been separated from his body and head. Since then, the two-legged master has become a fear of the night on the battlefield, and he has refused to die when he deals with the Chinese army at night.

The Japanese army performed very well when retreating. With its well-trained soldiers, excellent combat qualities and precise artillery fire cover, the Japanese army retreated from the nose of the Chinese army.

The Chinese army, which also suffered heavy casualties on the main peak, had no intention or power to pursue. In addition to leaving one to dig bunkers on the main peak and monitor the movements of the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain, other large forces also retreated to avoid being killed by the Japanese artillery fire.

As soon as the Japanese army on the main peak retreated, the Japanese army attacking the side peak also retreated.

Seeing this scene from the telescope, Lieutenant General Huang, who had been nervous for a day, felt relieved and fell to the chair of the observation center. He sighed with relief, "This day is so fucking long!"
Chapter completed!
