Chapter 772: Attack on White City at night! (Twelve)
The Baodian defenders had only one thousand two hundred people. After leaving, the subordinates of the Battalion Commander Jiang had only one thousand people ahead!
This attack on a small 354 high ground resulted in two hundred people losing.
In the siege, the number of Japanese casualties was even greater, with as many as 300!
Such war losses are really surprising. Of course, casualties do not mean death. The wounded soldiers will not only lose their combat effectiveness, but will also drag down normal soldiers.
In this way, from 7 o'clock in the morning to 4 o'clock, the fierce battle lasted for about nine hours, and the Japanese defending the city paid the price of 300 deaths!
The main battlefield between the two sides is still fighting for the 354 high ground, and more than half of the casualties are at the 354 high ground!
For siege, the main focus is on siege, and the attack strength is not very large.
"Brig Commander, this day has been going on, and the Japanese are still sticking to it. What are their ideas?" Zhao Ying came to the brigade headquarters.
"The Japanese army is in a dilemma. If they advance, they cannot conquer the 354 high ground, so they can only defend passively and retreat. They are worried that we will set up ambushes on the road, so they will not make big moves before dark!" Zhang Yirou said with a chuckle.
"We sang an empty city plan, and the two thousand elite Japanese soldiers gave Halamao so that they didn't dare to move!"
"Yes, we have used one regiment to attack the city now, at least two regiments are missing. The Japanese dare not act without action. There are two regiments of Li Haiqing. These are four regiments. Without confirming where these four regiments are, the Japanese can only be beaten passively!"
"You can't take it lightly, the Japanese are not stupid. When Chief Li occupied Shenjingzi and Ulantuga. The battle between Baicheng started, the enemy should wake up!" Zhang Yi roared.
"I am worried that the enemies of Qian'an and Haramaudu will have thousands of enemies in these two groups. Once the enemy wakes up, they will definitely send troops quickly. The Japanese army in Haramaudu mainly attacks Songyuan, and the Japanese army in Qian'an will quickly support Baodian!" Zhao Ying said to the simple sand table.
"In terms of strength, the Japanese army in Haramadu will be far above the Japanese army in Qian'an. If the Japanese army in Haramadu attacks Songyuan, it will be no match for the currently empty Songyuan. But if the Japanese army attacks Songyuan, then he will occupy Songyuan and will eventually be annihilated by us!" Zhang Yi roared.
"The brigade commander means. If the Japanese army occupy Songyuan, then let them occupy it, concentrate their efforts to eliminate the Japanese army in Baodian and Qian'an, and take advantage of the situation to occupy Qian'an!"
"Yes, we not only want to destroy the Japanese army in Baodian, but also capture the old Japanese devil of Gangmeng, Yanji. In addition, we also want to occupy Haramou. If the Japanese army dares to send troops to Songyuan, I will cut off his retreat!" Zhang Yiro punched the wooden board with a heavy punch!
"But we only have three groups. Five thousand people?"
"What's wrong with the five thousand people? How many Japanese troops are there? Just count it, there are only so many in total!" Zhang Yi shouted, "Is it better for the soldiers of our 1st Brigade than the Japanese?"
"In this way, the battle is going to start. How can Mr. Lu agree to us doing this?" Zhao Ying said.
"Don't we do it?"
"This is called being outside, and the king will not accept it!" Zhang Yi shouted, "Staff General Liang, draft a combat plan. Report!"
"yes!"
"If this battle is fought, Jixi will be ours!" Zhao Ying looked at the map and said in surprise.
"That's right, except for the big cities along the railway, most of us in Jilin Province have been pocketed!" Zhang Yihou laughed.
"Then the Japanese are still fighting with us?"
"Then let's play. Let's see who can play!"
Zhang Yihu's combat plan was sent to Lu Shan's desk, and he was a little unsure. It was not that Zhang Yihu's combat plan could achieve the expected goal, but that after such a fight, there was really not much room for Jixi!
Will the Japanese army give up the interests of Jixi?
It’s not that Lu Shan doesn’t want to fight, but that he is weak in fighting again and you may not be able to defend it if you win. There is no possibility that you can’t even protect what you are now!
This is not worrying about gains and losses, but the actual situation is that the war potential of the Eastern Region has reached its limit and needs to be repaired urgently. Whether in terms of manpower, war resources, especially weapons and ammunition, although there is the Yilan Arsenal, production is not even more common in daily training. How can we talk about combat consumption?
It’s not impossible to fight, but it’s best not to take up these places. The more capable you have, you will be able to bear the burden. If you eat too much, you will be able to endure yourself to death!
Lu Shan finally agreed to Zhang Yihu's combat plan. After all, this opportunity is rare. As long as you don't get entangled with the Japanese army, fight quickly and take advantage of it, you will leave. Even if the Japanese army sends a large army, there is no way out!
"Headquarters telegram, Mr. Lu agrees to our plan!"
"Oh, let's see, I said, Mr. Lu will not disagree. However, Mr. Lu said in the telegram, please don't occupy these places and fight quickly. What does this mean?" Zhao Ying took the telegram from the communications consultant, browsed it, handed it to Zhang Yihou, and asked in confusion.
"Lu always worried that we would occupy these places, but we were unable to defend them, so he asked us to win and retreat!" Zhang Yihu thought for a while and explained.
"Well, our troops are too scattered. Once a large number of Japanese troops pour out from Changchun, we are definitely not opponents!" Zhao Ying nodded in agreement with Zhang Yihu's judgment!
"The telegram command Li Yi to slow down and launch an attack on Shen Jingzi. After the battle in Baicheng begins, he then launches an attack and cut off the way for the Japanese army in Baodian to retreat south!" Zhang Yihou ordered!
"Where is the 12th Brigade now?"
"They have arrived at Sheli, east of Baicheng, and are moving forward at full speed!"
"Very good, where is Gong Changhai's cavalry brigade?"
"I met Gao Shusen's infantry regiment and are now heading towards Baicheng. My current location should probably be in Zhenlai!"
"So, it's not a big problem to launch an attack on Baicheng at nine o'clock!" Zhang Yi shouted, "The pre-order of the Battle of Baicheng has not been decided yet?"
"I don't know, this time it seems that Mr. Lu did not specify who was the front-line!"
"I guess one will be designated before the war, one of Gong Changhai and Li Haiqing!" Zhao Ying said.
"Li Haiqing!" Zhang Yihu said slowly.
"Brig Commander. Headquarters Order. Li Haiqing serves as the front commander, and you and Brigade Commander Gong serve as the deputy commander..." As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Shan's telegram arrived!
"It's great. I call back and said that we will definitely follow the orders of Commander Li and fight this battle well!"
Li Haiqing, who was on the rushing march, also received a telegram from Lu Shan. At this time, Li Haiqing was in a state of great excitement!
You should know that he was always nervous. The 12th Brigade had just suffered a defeat, so he had no face to fight for this front finger at this time. According to his estimate, this front finger should have emerged among Zhang Yihu and Gong Changhai. The possibility of Zhang Yihu taking office is very high. After all, Zhang Yihu is Lu Shan’s beloved general and is familiar with the army!
But he didn't expect Lu Shan would trust him so much. Finally, he handed over the appointment of the previous sign to his hands!
"Order and speed up. Be sure to arrive at Baicheng before nine o'clock in the evening!" Li Haiqing folded the message and put it in his arms, and ordered the correspondent loudly.
This time, the 1st Brigade of the Teaching 1 lent all the cars to the 12th Brigade, and the driver and cavalry battalion were handed over to Li Haiqing together!
Without cars, it would be almost impossible for the 12th Brigade to raid Baicheng in one day.
Even if people can arrive, it is hard to say whether they can have combat effectiveness!
"Brig Commander, Grassland Wolf Telegram, they are ready. Just wait for us to arrive!" The communications consultant handed over another telegram.
"Okay, it's great. Call back and know. Please be careful and wait for my order!" Li Haiqing was very excited.
There is a direct team that cooperates with the inside and outside. If Baicheng can't get it, Li Haiqing should buy a piece of tofu and kill him!
Beep beep beep...
The Baodian Japanese Army Command was in a mess, and the signal lights of several radio stations were flashing constantly, showing how busy the external contacts were at this moment!
"How about it?"
"Colonel Lepo called back. A large number of suspicious people were found around Haramao, suspected to be the scouts of the Chinese army. It is less than two hours before dark. If you send troops at this time, it is very likely that the Chinese army will be ambushed!"
"Where is Shen Jingzi?"
"Secretary Suhara of Kuroiko has come here with a small team and a company's security brigade. Now it's on the road!"
"When will Qian'an's reinforcements go?" asked Tian Xisan.
"Qian'an said that they lacked military strength. If troops were drawn, Qian'an would be in danger. Now only two regiments have appeared in the Chinese army, and at least three regiments are missing. They dare not take risks..."
"Baga, the coward is dead..."
"Give power to Ulantuga, please send another squadron reinforcements from Major Takeda, and bring more ammunition supplies!" Seeing Tian Hisan's order, "Hurry!"
"See Master Tian!" Gangmura Yiji stood behind Himeda Kiri!
"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, you are here!" Seeing Tian Xisan hurriedly put his legs together and bowed to Kaangmura Yanji.
"The reinforcements have not arrived yet?" Gangmura Yanji asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, Chief of Staff, but we should be able to defend it!" Seeing Tian Xisan solemnly promised.
"The Chinese army acted quickly and responded quickly beyond my imagination. Moreover, their actions were very secretive. Before we could figure out their movements, the strategy of each unit's remaining troops could not be wrong!" Kamura Yanji said slowly.
"But Chief of Staff, we will be too passive if this happens!" Gangmura's adjutant couldn't help but interrupt.
"Unless we can know their combat plan." After seeing Tian Hisan say it, he couldn't help but show a hint of embarrassment, "But, this is too difficult!"
"Master, headquarters telegram!"
"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, look!" Seeing that Tian Hizo received the telegram, he did not read it, but respectfully handed it to Kamura Yanji!
Gangmura Yanji reached out to take the message, scanned the contents of the telegram, and then replied to Tian Xisan: "It seems that the headquarters also has concerns. The Chinese army may be planning any conspiracy. Otherwise, by occupying the 354th Highland, they can launch a fierce attack on Baodian, but their attacks are not strong, as if they are just trying to hold us back."
"The purpose of the Chinese people is not us, but reinforcements?" Seeing Tian Xisan said.
"It is possible that no reinforcements from Kuromiko are moved now. If the Chinese people go around behind us and ambush our reinforcements, everything will be clear!" Gangmura Nichiji Host.
"We are trapped here now and have no idea what is going on outside. Should we notify Lieutenant Suyuan to be careful, he only has one team..."
"No, if the Chinese army's target is our reinforcements, it will be difficult for Nasuhara team to go back. If not, they will inevitably have greater plans, but their total strength is only 1,000 people. What can such a small number of people make?" Gangmura Yanji reached out to stop it.
