Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

At this time, Kong Hao came in and told his battle plan:

"Captain Long, Chief of Staff He, I plan to lead a team to attack the Japanese artillery positions tonight."

"As long as we kill the artillery squad of the opposite Jingkou Battalion, tomorrow's battle will be easier to fight."

After hearing this, Captain Long frowned and said, "The Japanese artillery position is behind them, and the defense must be very tight. It is too dangerous to attack at night. I suggest you don't go."

"Tonight, our regiment is also preparing to attack the enemy at night, but we are just going to throw some grenades to harass the Japanese and make them sleep poorly."

"The advantage is on our side now, there is no need to take the risk."

"Captain Long, it's okay. We are confident of this kind of thing, so don't worry."

"However, it would be best for both of us to act in unison, so that we can catch the Japanese off guard."

When Captain Long heard Kong Hao say this, he could only nod in agreement, and also specifically instructed:

"Captain Kong, be careful in everything you do. If something is impossible, withdraw in time."

"As long as we hold out for two days, and wait for the main force of the independent regiment to arrive, we can find a way to encircle and annihilate these little devils."

Kong Hao nodded and agreed, then set off with the special forces team.

In fact, the reason why he took action tonight was mainly to train the team members in the subject of raiding positions at night.

As an all-round special forces team, they have to go through all kinds of combat environments, especially surprise attacks on the enemy's rear and destroying enemy artillery positions, which are also part of special operations.

In the Japanese military camp opposite, Captain Iguchi was in a rage.

He had just learned from a telegram that the transport convoy that had been supplying their brigade during the day had been attacked by unknown forces and all the supplies had been stolen.

If we want to get supplies again, it will be at least tomorrow noon, and there is no guarantee that the convoy will arrive on time.

After receiving the telegram, Captain Jingguchi was so angry that he almost wanted to draw his sword and kill the telegraph operator.

Today, their brigade suffered huge casualties, but has achieved great results. They have captured half of the positions of the Sichuan Army on the opposite side. As long as they make another effort, they will be able to successfully break through and win this battle.

Because we already knew that we would receive a large amount of supplies this afternoon, we didn't think about saving ammunition during the day.

Although great results were achieved under fierce firepower, most of the ammunition was consumed.

Now the average soldier in the Jingkou Battalion has only 40 bullets and one melon grenade. The most important thing is that there is a serious shortage of shells for grenade launchers, mortars and Type 92 infantry guns.

Especially the Type 92 infantry gun, a heavy weapon used for attacking strongholds, which now has only 30 shells left. How can the soldiers of the Jingkou Battalion fight?

After all, they have long been accustomed to "artillery bombardment, infantry charge, infantry charge, artillery bombardment after the charge."

The Japanese have always relied on their powerful industrial system to produce endless ammunition to bully us. Now that they have no artillery shells, their rigid tactics have fatal flaws.

Maybe the Japanese can use the limited ammunition they have now to fight against the spineless Security Corps, but facing the Sichuan Army Corps whose fighting will is harder than steel, this is not enough.

After several days of fighting, Captain Iguchi could already feel the strength of his opponent, a unit with extremely strong fighting will.

Although their weapons and equipment are very poor, most of them have good marksmanship and are veterans of the battlefield. Their fighting will is extremely strong and they will not abandon any small position unless all of them are killed in battle.

At this time, Chief of Staff Ono pushed the door open and walked in, handing Captain Iguchi a telegram:

"Captain, the brigade sent an urgent telegram. Our reconnaissance plane discovered at high altitude that the Eighth Route Army has recently made large-scale movements. The destination is in Hexian County. They should be reinforcements from the Sichuan Army Corps across the way. They are expected to arrive in three days."

"The brigade commander ordered our battalion to capture the Sichuan Army's position on the opposite side before dark tomorrow, eliminate or defeat the Sichuan Army's obstruction, and go around the back of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army's 358th Regiment from the rear to cooperate with Noda's regiment to occupy the Hexian County seat."

After reading the telegram, Jingguchi fell into deep thought.

After a long while, he looked up and said:

"Mr. Ono, the Sichuan Army is good at night attacks. We must strengthen our vigilance tonight. Tell the soldiers to shoot immediately if they hear any sound and never leave their positions."

"The Chinese are all good at scheming, such as Sun Tzu's Art of War and the Thirty-Six Stratagems. We must not be fooled."

"In addition, we must abandon some less important positions and focus on defending the main positions."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of explosion not far away. When he walked out to take a look, he saw that the entire position was ablaze.

And judging from the sound of the explosion, it was caused by a Japanese-made Type 91 grenade. This made Captain Iguchi very confused. Where did the Sichuan Army get so many of their standard equipment?

The Second Company led by Captain Wu is still responsible for the night attack tonight. He took the initiative to get this position.

The main reason was that the other companies of the Sichuan Army had been fighting all day and were extremely tired both physically and mentally, so they needed a good night's rest.

As for their Second Company, apart from fighting a small-scale ambush, they suffered no other losses. Their morale was at a high level at the moment, making it perfect for a night attack on the enemy's position.

Captain Wu divided the entire company into four groups and harassed the enemy in two directions. His only goal was to make all the Japanese soldiers in the Jingkou Battalion restless all night.

The first to be dispatched were the first and third platoons. They took advantage of darkness and lurked forty meters below the position occupied by the Japanese, waiting for the agreed time.

More than sixty soldiers picked up the grenades beside them, knocked them against the helmets on their heads, and then threw them towards the communication trench on the Japanese position.

Of course, it is dark now, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is pitch dark. This hit rate is not at all satisfactory.

However, the Sichuan Army didn't care about all this. They just wanted to make the noise as loud as possible, so that the Japanese couldn't rest and kept their nerves tense at all times, which would make it easier to fight tomorrow's battle.

After all, on one hand, I had enough to eat and drink, and I also had a good sleep, which made me feel refreshed;

On the other hand, he didn't dare to rest for a moment. Even if he dozed off, he would keep one eye open for fear of being attacked. You can imagine the situation.

After the two groups of people from the second company threw the grenades, they continued shooting with rifles, with each soldier only firing two shots.

They were still using the Sichuan-made Type 79 rifles that they had used before. Captain Long was reluctant to waste the Type 38 rifle bullets captured from the Japanese on such a thing.

It's just a noise anyway, so don't waste good weapons and bullets.

As expected, when the Japanese heard the explosion of grenades and gunshots, they all went into combat mode and fired several flares towards the front of the position, followed by frantic blocking fire.

This is the best way summarized by the Jingkou Battalion in recent days to resist the Sichuan Army's night battles and close combat.

It’s a pity that the Sichuan Army has changed its tactics, causing the Japanese tactics to fail once again.
