Anti-Japanese War: I have a million soldiers and you call me a division commander?

The distance of three or four miles is not far, and without the restraint of the Third Battalion, the Japanese and puppet troops moved very quickly.

More than ten minutes later, the figures of a large group of Japanese and puppet troops appeared in the eyes of the second and third battalion commanders.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing the Japanese and puppet troops chasing after them in a hurry, these Japanese and puppet troops still did not learn their lesson and were still so reckless.

The Second Battalion Commander couldn't help but laugh and said, "Send an order to the troops to prepare for battle!"

The two companies of the third battalion were just luring the enemy deep into their territory. Now they have two battalions, a combat force of nearly two thousand people.

That is not about luring the enemy deep into our territory, but about taking their lives, the lives of the Japanese and puppet troops.

"Snapped!"

"Hit me!"

On that day, the vanguard of the puppet army broke into the ambush position. The second battalion commander did not waste any time and immediately pulled the trigger, and a gunshot rang out.

The crisp sound of gunfire is the order!

For a while, the battlefield was filled with the sounds of gunfire and explosions.

"idiot!!!!"

"Enemy attack, quickly get away!"

"Avoid, avoid, get down! Get down!"

Faced with the sudden fire attack, the Japanese and puppet troops, who had suffered such treatment many times in the past two hours, reacted immediately.

no way!

The commander of the third battalion was like a piece of taffy, the kind that wouldn't let go once it stuck. The frequent ambushes, raids, mine warfare, etc. made the Japanese and puppet troops suffer so much that they were also a little numb.

So when faced with the surprise attack again, the Japanese and puppet troops were not as nervous as in previous times and began to slowly adapt.

however!

Soon the Japanese and puppet troops discovered something was wrong.

"idiot!!!"

The Japanese Major General Chief of Staff of the Mongolian Army was lying on the ground with his eyes wide open, looking at the dense firepower and the battlefield which had obviously expanded several times. He knew that he had been ambushed by the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

"Mr. Chief of Staff, what should we do?!!!"

Looking at the troops being ravaged by the intensive firepower of the Eighth Route Army, the major captain of the Japanese Third Battalion crawled to the Major General Chief of Staff and asked.

"Avoid the initial firepower attack of the Tubalu, then launch a small-scale free counterattack, and then concentrate the forces to launch a counterattack."

Hearing the Major's question, the Major General Chief of Staff looked at the situation and felt relieved, no longer panicking: "This is the main force of the Eighth Route Army. It's time to make achievements."

"It seems that our strategy of holding on to the Eighth Route Army has worked. Seeing that they can't shake us off, the Eighth Route Army has no choice but to engage us, hoping to force us to retreat through ambushes."

The Major General Chief of Staff's face was full of confidence, and he was very confident in his own guess.

"If my guess is correct, His Excellency the Lieutenant General should not be far away." At this point, the Major General Chief of Staff revealed a ruthless look and said, "Attack at all costs. Don't be afraid of casualties."

"As long as you can complete the mission, His Excellency the Commander will reward you greatly."

"Don't you want to be promoted to a higher rank? Do you want to go to the county and serve as the commander of the garrison? If you do well this time, I'll arrange it for you!"

Upon hearing this, the captain of the Third Battalion's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately shouted, "Hey! Please rest assured, Chief of Staff. The Third Battalion will definitely not let you and the Commander down!"

After saying this, he crawled back to convey the order.

At the same time, these orders were also passed on.

"Send a telegram to His Excellency the Commander!"

After another minute or two, seeing that the Eighth Route Army's firepower density was obviously starting to decrease, the Japanese Major General Chief of Staff showed an expression that showed he had expected this.

"Hahaha!"

He laughed heartily and said to the frightened combat staff, "Just say we have caught up with the main force of the Eighth Route Army and are now engaging them."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "The Tubalu troops number over 3,000. They have good weapons and equipment, but lack heavy firepower, and their firepower density and sustainability are not strong."

"Please rest assured, Commander. I promise to complete the mission."

After saying this, the Japanese Major General Chief of Staff waved his hand to the operations staff, signaling him to go send a telegram.

"Report to the battalion commander, each company has concealed one-third of its heavy firepower as ordered."

At the ambush position, a combat staff officer saluted the second and third battalion commanders and reported loudly.

"Hahaha!"

Hearing the words of the combat staff, the third battalion commander smiled and said, "I'm afraid the Japanese and puppet troops really think we are the Eighth Route Army now."

"Reduce the firepower by one-third now, and reduce it by one-fifth in ten minutes."

"At the same time, we brought the Japanese and puppet troops closer to fight, focusing on one thing and showing the essence of the Eighth Route Army, a friendly force."

Listening to the Third Battalion Commander's teasing, the Second Battalion Commander also smiled and nodded, saying, "After all, we are also learning from a master. We have learned a lot from the Eighth Route Army."

"I can't say it's 100% similar, but 60 to 70 percent is no problem."

"That's enough. By the time they react, the captain and the others will be here too." After saying that, the two of them smiled even more brightly.

The missions of the second and third battalions have not yet been completed.

Their mission was to hold on to the Japanese and puppet troops and buy time for the larger force to encircle them.

Therefore, in order to prevent the Japanese and puppet troops from reacting, in addition to the second and third battalions opening fire at full power at the first moment of the battle, they began to proactively reduce their firepower by one third after the first wave of fire.

And according to the two's plan, the firepower would be reduced again after ten minutes.

The purpose was to expose the Eighth Route Army's old problem of insufficient ammunition.

"well!!!"

Sure enough, faced with the two's plan, the Japanese Major General Chief of Staff was fooled.

He shouted triumphantly, "As expected, the Eighth Route Army's firepower can no longer be sustained. Their ammunition reserves are insufficient, and they simply cannot maintain such a high-intensity firepower output."

"Hahaha!"

At this point, the Japanese Major General Chief of Staff laughed even more wildly and said, "How dare the Eighth Route Army attack our Great Japanese Empire General? In Chinese terms, this is like a big lantern in the toilet, courting death."

"Tubalu, this time, I will definitely let you experience what the sanctions of the Empire of Japan mean, damn it!!!" Immediately, he ordered the troops to increase the intensity of the attack.

At this time, the morale of the Japanese and puppet troops also soared.

Especially the puppet army, they don’t know how to fight a battle against the wind, but they are good at fighting a battle with the wind in their favor.

Before I knew it, half an hour had passed.

"Captain, Captain Luo!"

On the other side, in the ambush trench, Zhang Dapao and the captain of the Fifth Team, Luo Yuanlang, arrived together.

The second and third battalion commanders quickly stood at attention and shouted.

"how is the situation?"

Looking at the second and third battalion commanders, Zhang Dapao smiled happily. He first introduced them to Luo Yuanlang, and then asked.

"The Japanese and puppet troops were unaware of this and continued their attack."

Hearing the captain's question, the second battalion commander replied with a smile.

"Hahaha!"

Zhang Dapao was very satisfied with this answer. He immediately said, "In about half an hour, the Fifth Battalion, the Fourth Battalion of the Fifth Detachment, and the Artillery Battalion will be here to support us."

"As soon as the reinforcements arrive, we can launch a general attack immediately." As he said this, he looked at the Japanese and puppet troops in front of him with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

The Japanese and puppet troops were unaware of the news that the main forces of the Third and Fifth Detachments were coming to support them.

At this time, the captain of the third battalion, covered in smoke and dust, and several other majors, captains, puppet army lieutenant colonels, and majors were being scolded by the Japanese major general chief of staff.

"Baga, what are you doing?"

"Our time is precious. If we continue to waste it, can we rescue the Lieutenant General?"

"I'm telling you, if you can't take it down after organizing an attack, you will be subject to military law, damn it!!!" the Major General Chief of Staff roared at a group of Japanese and puppet army officers.
