Chapter 68 Street Fighting Expert
Jinshan County.
The KUKAXI Detachment and the 6th Field Heavy Artillery Brigade were catching up on time and eating with boiling water. However, the two old ghosts, Tonko and Na, were not in the mood to eat.
Abe Kaguji, Garner Shuichi and others also don’t have time to have lunch.
Several of them were called to the command center by the Kōzaki Detachment, Nashiro, and asked in detail about what had happened before.
Namimi Minro asked first: "Abe-kun, tell me what happened in the city before, and you also have the captain! Don't miss it!"
Abe Kaguji paused and said, "Hayi!"
After saying that, he reminded Garner and the others, "You three are ready to supplement at any time."
"Hayi!" Garner Hideichi, Hattori and Toshiji Yamamoto followed him to pause.
Namimi Toshiro said to Abe Kameji again: "Abe Jun, now you can say it."
"Hayi!" Abe Kaguji paused his head again and said, "After the bombing of the First Flying Regiment and the artillery brigade were over the gap in the city wall, we followed Captain Matsumoto to climb over the gap in the city wall and entered the city. However, because the fire in the city has not yet been extinguished, we could only rest and standby at the base of the city wall."
"After about half an hour, the fire in the city was slightly reduced, and Captain Matsumoto ordered an attack. Several of us were temporarily recruited as Chief Matsumoto, and followed the brigade headquarters to advance. What we saw along the way were ruins of houses destroyed by artillery fire, and there was almost no complete building!"
"Many house ruins are still smoking."
"It is precisely because of this that we ignore the sweeping of the ruins of houses!"
Hearing this, Kōshideng couldn't help but exchanged glances with Nami Minro and said in a deep voice: "Nami Jun, have you found any problem from this?"
"Hayi!" Na saw Minlang and said, "Here, the Chinese commander opposite is the one named Zhong, who took advantage of the imperial army's mindset!"
"Soga!" Guozaki said in a deep voice, "This Zhong Yi not only has extraordinary command skills, but also has a deep understanding of the weaknesses of human nature, so he designed such an ingenious trap!"
"Hayi!" Na saw Toshiro's head paused and signaled Abe Kaguji to continue to say.
Abe Kaguji said again: "In this way, we advanced to the center of the city smoothly, and then we found a building with reinforced concrete structure. The Chinese army built solid fortifications based on this building. Chief Matsumoto ordered all troops to close the four sides, surround the buildings guarded by the Chinese army, and then launched a strong attack!"
"Then, the Chinese army, who had been ambushed in the ruins of the houses in advance, suddenly rushed out. The Imperial Army was attacked inside and outside the Chinese army and was forced to turn into defense. However, because the Chinese army occupied all the ruins of the houses on the periphery in advance, the Imperial Army could only seize the ruins with the dense machine gun firepower of the Chinese army."
"Wait!" Hearing this, Kōshidun suddenly reached out and interrupted, "Abe-kun, what kind of attack formation was the Matsumoto brigade attacked by the Chinese army?"
"This..." Abe Kaguji recalled for a moment, paused and said, "It seems to have been in a circle."
"Hayi!" Garner Xiuyi quickly added, "The depth of the front and back was at most fifty meters."
"Baga, it's no wonder!" Kunizaki said angrily, "It was suddenly attacked by inside and outside, and lacked depth. Nearly a thousand people gathered in a narrow and narrow circular area. In contrast, the Chinese army has solid fortifications, so it is not surprising that the Imperial Army was completely wiped out in a short period of time!"
After saying that, Kunizaki Tou waved his hand to signal Abe Kaguji and others to leave.
After Abe Kaguji and others walked out of the tent, Kunizaki Ton said again: "Na Miejun, what have you gained after listening to Abe's report?"
"Hayi!" Namiya said with a pause, "Your Captain, the collective shattering of Matsumoto's brigade is not worthless, at least it made us realize that urban warfare is different from field warfare!"
"This is not called urban warfare, but street warfare. It is a newly emerging war discipline in the West!" Kurosaki Toru waved his hand and said, "Before, the Marine Corps had applied some theories of street warfare, but our army was obviously a bit out of date in this regard."
Namimi Toshiro nodded and said, "Sodesnai."
Guozaki Ton said again: "However, it is not too late to apply street fighting theory to actual combat now!"
Na Jian Minro said, "Your Captain must have some research on street fighting theory, and I am willing to hear about it."
"No, I have no research on street fighting." Kurosaki Tok waved his hand and said, "But some people are familiar with street fighting."
After saying that, Tono Kikusaki shouted at the communication soldier outside the tent, "Ono, go and invite Usa Mikun to come!"
...
Soon, a straight Japanese master walked into the command tent with high spirits.
That's right, this Japanese master is Mitsuru Usa who was defeated in front of Heisuke Yanagawa.
From the beginning, Usa Mitsuru strongly opposed waiting for four hours over the sea, and firmly advocated that the tide should be launched to grab the beach while the tide was rising at 2 o'clock in the morning. Unfortunately, Yanagawa Heisuke did not adopt it at the beginning. Otherwise, no matter how powerful Zhong Yi was, he would never be able to defend the Kinshan Guard for two days and nights.
In the end, although Yanagawa Heisuke adopted Usa Mitsuto's suggestion, he did not want to see him again.
Therefore, Yanagawa Heisuke issued a transfer order and transferred Usa Mitaka to the Kunizaki Detachment as a staff officer.
As soon as he walked into the tent, the Japanese Major stood attentively and bowed heavily: "Your Excellency, Team Captain, Team Captain!"
Kokusaki returned to the military salute and said to Nami Toshiro: "Nami, you may not know yet. Usa Mikun is a top student who has returned from studying abroad at the Berlin Military Academy!"
"Sodesnai." Na saw Toshiro nodded happily and said, "Usa Mikun, the captain said you are a street fighting expert."
"Hayi!" Usa Mito paused and said, "The experts must not be careful, they can only say that they have research on alley strategies."
"Haha, Usa Mikun, don't be modest." Kunizaki Toru waved his hand and said, "I heard that you have excellent grades in all subjects at the Berlin Military Academy!"
"Hai!" Usa Mirō said again, "However, street fighting has not become a mature subject, nor has there been a complete theory to study. When I was studying in Berlin, I only communicated with my classmates and the tutors of the college, so I can only say that I have research on street strategy."
Guo Jideng said, "Then let me tell you what you think."
Usa Mitsunobu said: "The street fighting we talk about now generally refers to street fighting after the hot weapons era, while street fighting in the cold weapons era is not listed here."
Namimi Toshiro said, "Usa Mikun, there is no need to mention the history of street fighting, just get to the point!"
