I really came here to fight against Japan

Chapter 282: Shimu Bridge, the troops in front are under your command

“This Sakata regiment is extremely difficult to deal with. The two battalions under his command are all die-hard militarists.

If the Japanese Fourth Mixed Brigade discovered our intention to encircle and annihilate them, they would definitely choose to flee.

Then, Sakata Nobutsu's regiment would definitely serve as the rearguard unit and remain at the rear of the Japanese army.

Commander, you also know that an army determined to fight to the death will not let us pass.

They will frantically stop our attack and make us encircle and annihilate the Japanese army. The plan of the 4th Mixed Brigade will eventually fail. "

In fact, Commander Shi is not in a good mood now. The current situation does not suit his style of play.

According to his fighting style, as soon as the Sakata Regiment retreated, his troops should follow them.

Their militia brigade was not afraid of fighting a head-on battle with the Japanese as they had fought this before.

But the terrain here was too unfavorable for the deployment of his troops.

There was a long section of the road that was too narrow, and he just took advantage of this terrain.

Only then could we completely wipe out a battalion and a reinforced squadron of Sakata.

In fact, the Gannan Allied Forces have never had any miraculous victory since the Anti-Japanese War.

They either took advantage of the terrain, concentrated their forces to defeat the enemy with greater numbers, or disguised themselves as Japanese soldiers and launched surprise attacks.

Now if you ask Shimuqiao to launch an attack from the junction, you are seeking death.

He can eliminate the Japanese, and Sakata can also take advantage of the terrain at the junction to give the Lianzhuang team a severe blow.

The best way is to let Captain Cheng give up part of the main position and let the Lianzhuang team attack from there.

Then the two regiments of the Eighth Route Army surrounded the Sakata Regiment from both wings.

In this way, with a force three times that of the enemy, we can destroy the Sakata Regiment's effectiveness.

Even if we cannot completely wipe out the Sakata Regiment, it would not be difficult to destroy one of his battalions with artillery bombardment alone.

But looking at his thoughts, they are still too conservative. It would be great if this was Captain Ye’s position.

Even if it can't help me, it should be no problem for him to open up an attack channel for me.

"Commander Shi, the deputy commander wants to ask you, if you were asked to fight Sakata Nobutsu right now, what specific battle plan would you have?"

Shi Muqiao stopped talking now and picked up the walkie-talkie to directly express his views.

"My troops attacked from Commander Cheng's position, and the two main regiments surrounded him from both wings.

While the Japanese artillery battalion was being crippled by our artillery.

We will just pull up the cannons and destroy Nobutsu Sakata's defense system.

When the main force of his 4th Mixed Brigade arrives, all that will be left is to collect Sakata's bodies.

Deputy Commander-in-Chief, if our Captain Li's main force can be defeated in half...

As long as we can arrive in an hour, it is not impossible to completely wipe out the 4th Mixed Brigade today."

Captain Ye, who was standing by the Shimu Bridge, listened and gave a thumbs up.

You guys listen, this brother Shi speaks with full of energy.

Captain Cheng: You, a militia captain, want to command me? You haven’t joined the new regiment yet.

If you follow Li Yunlong for a year or two, you will directly command the brigade commander.

At this moment, the voice of the deputy commander-in-chief suddenly came from the walkie-talkie.

"Comrade Shimuqiao, we will do as you say. We will do as you say. The troops in the front will be under your unified command.

I will let two main regiments assist you in taking down the Sakata Unit.

I no longer need the militia you sent to me. I will ask them to report to you.

But I've made it clear to you in advance that if you talk big to me, you won't be able to defeat the Sakata Unit.

I don't need you to come to me with your head, you and your team, go back to where you came from."

"Yes, we promise to complete the task!"

The deputy commander-in-chief said, "Captain Cheng, Captain Ye, you two should cooperate with Comrade Shi Muqiao's actions first.

"When Li Yunlong's main force arrives in a little while, the command of the on-site operations will be handed over to Li Yunlong."

After receiving the order, Shimuqiao immediately ordered his artillery battalion to move towards the Sakata position.

His three main militia battalions also began to gather towards Captain Cheng's position.

No matter how unwilling Captain Cheng was, he dared not disobey the deputy commander-in-chief's orders and had to do as he was told.

The comrades in the regiment below did not know about the command authority and did not comment on this order.

Besides, even for the sake of those four Type 92 heavy machine guns, who wouldn’t be a good friend?

There were also many soldiers carrying big swords and holding old sleeves in their hands.

It turned out that those soldiers who were using the old slide were also replaced with the Type 38 rifle, so they could grab a few more bullets.

Now, let alone asking them to move, even if they were asked to join the new group right now...

This is really not possible. After all, we are all revolutionaries and we must not forget to follow orders in all our actions.

At the division headquarters, the division commander said to the deputy commander-in-chief: "Boss, you have sent all the people out, are we still going to move?"

The deputy commander, who was angry just now, suddenly changed his mood and laughed.

"We have to move this house. Our old nest has been exposed. If we don't move out, people will definitely keep an eye on us."

Everything else is easy to talk about, but the deputy commander-in-chief must speak out today.

Not long after he arrived at a certain division headquarters, he was noticed by Nobutsu Sakata.

Not only did they chase after a certain division headquarters and refused to let go, they also fought for more than 40 hours.

Finally, he wanted to call on the main force of the 4th Mixed Brigade to come and sweep him.

If it weren't for the logistics and hospitals that need to be protected, we would have fought to the death.

Those two regiments would not have been in such a passive position in the fight against the Japanese.

The one who came today was ordered to join Li Yunlong's Lianzhuang Militia Battalion. He is quite interesting.

They are really good at fighting, and they are probably someone like Wu Changfeng.

Relying on its own artillery battalion and a reinforced company of troops.

They surprisingly easily defeated nearly 1,500 Japanese soldiers.

His two regiments were exhausted because they were fighting a defensive battle.

It just so happened that this Shimu Bridge had just won a victory and was in high spirits.

It would be better to let them attack the Sakata Unit and see what his abilities are.

If all goes well, Sakata Nobutsu can be completely eliminated before the 4th Mixed Brigade arrives.

In order to increase the militia's marching speed, the deputy commander-in-chief asked the people in the division headquarters to lend all the horse-drawn carriages to Lushanlai.

When Lushan came to support the division headquarters, he also mobilized a lot of horses.

In this way, three sidecar tricycles from Lushan led the way, followed by a company of packhorses.

The soldiers from the six militia battalions of the Lianzhuang team ran wildly behind them, heading straight for Cangyun Ridge.

Fifteen minutes later, the telephone line to the headquarters returned to normal.

The method is very simple. Just cut the telephone line between Cheng Tuan and Ye Tuan, and the extra telephone line will come out.

We can’t blame Captain Cheng and his team for not thinking of this solution.

We all come from poor families and have worked hard to save up this little fortune.

If anyone dares to break it, the ordinary soldiers will get angry with you when they know about it.

Just as the call was connected to the headquarters, the artillery battalion at Shimu Bridge had already started a battle with the Japanese.

The Eighth Route Army comrades in the trenches drooled at the sight of the Fengu County militia passing by.

In their eyes, these militiamen from the new regiment were definitely playing the pig eating the tiger just now.

The militiamen had already changed into the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army, and the murderous aura suddenly rose.

Especially the patches on his new military uniform, which made him look more like an old Eighth Route Army soldier than himself.
