Chapter 360 Miyano Michichi’s worries!
Second Battalion Commander Liu Shuoming suggested: "The regiment leader is right."
"In addition, according to what the regiment leader personally deciphered, the number of paratroopers in Xiaoguizi's battalion is only more than 500. If they parachute next to Jiujiangpo or Zhenting City, then Xu Dahu's third
The 18th Air Assault Battalion, as well as the 15th Cavalry Battalion in Zhenting City, concentrate their heavy machine guns on the air and prepare for shooting and ambushes. They can directly shoot and annihilate the Japanese paratroopers as they land in the air. That will be no problem."
Xu Rui's eyes lit up, he nodded and said with a smile: "Your suggestion is good, let's do it like this."
"Commander!"
With that said, Xu Rui asked the messenger to come in.
"Team seats!"
The messenger from outside the command department came in and said.
"Immediately prepare the cavalry battalion and air assault battalion to ambush the Japanese 6th Parachute Battalion, and convey these situations to Xu Dahu and Ju Ming."
Xu Rui explained in detail the contents of the deciphered Japanese encrypted radio to the ordering soldier, and then said.
"Yes, group seat."
The ordering soldier responded, then turned around and ran away.
Xu Rui then directly picked up the field phone at the headquarters and called Li Yunlong's headquarters behind the hill opposite Xiangji Temple. He also informed Li Yunlong of the Japanese paratrooper's next situation.
"Brother Xu, after the cavalry battalion and the air assault battalion of the 303rd regiment kill the Japanese paratroopers, you will continue to pretend to be fighting fiercely. Then our blocking firepower will be greatly reduced, tempting the Japanese soldiers at the bottom of the mountain to attack fiercely. Then we will concentrate our firepower and then counterattack.
, should be able to eat a lot of Japanese."
Li Yunlong said on the other end of the phone.
"That's okay, Brother Yunlong, this is a good idea!"
Xu Rui's eyes lit up, he also slapped the table and laughed: "At that time, Taro Takeshita doesn't know that we have eaten up the paratroopers he asked for support, and will definitely be confused by our pretended weak firepower and attack us.
Mountain."
"Hehe, when the Japanese who are lured up come to our position on the mountain, we will concentrate our firepower and counterattack from above, which will be enough to annihilate many Japanese soldiers."
Li Yunlong on the other end of the phone also laughed and said, "Then it's settled."
"OK!!!"
Xu Rui nodded, hung up the phone, and smiled at Second Battalion Commander Liu Shuoming, who was still at the headquarters, and said, "Did you hear that?"
"I heard you, Tuanzuo!"
Second Battalion Commander Liu Shuoming chuckled and said.
"Then when you go out, send someone to inform the First Battalion."
Xu Rui smiled.
"Understood, Tuanzuo!"
Liu Shuoming smiled, stood at attention and saluted, then turned around and left the headquarters.
Xu Rui, on the other hand, was sitting firmly at the command post, listening leisurely to the rumbling bombardment of the little devils.
This day was going really well.
While Xu Rui was leisurely sitting at the headquarters commanding the troops, the encrypted radio sent by Takeshita Taro to the Japanese First Army Headquarters was quickly intercepted by the Japanese communications troops in the communications office of the Japanese First Army Headquarters.
.
Then, after some translation, Major Kitamura Junyi, the staff officer of the Communications Department of the Japanese First Army Headquarters, saw the contents of the telegram. He immediately walked out of the Communications Department with the telegram and went to the command room of the headquarters outside.
report.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Chief of Staff, a secret message from Taro Takeshita!"
After standing at attention and saluting heavily, Kitamura Junyi handed the telegram in his hand to Shinozuka Yinan.
Hearing this, Shinozuka Yinan took his eyes off the map on the table in the command room, then took the telegram and read it.
"Taro Takeshita is incompetent!"
After reading the telegram, Shinozuka Yinan cursed with a gloomy expression.
Major General Miyano Michichi, the chief of staff of the Japanese First Army who was standing opposite Shinozuka Yoshinami, saw this and said in a solemn voice: "Commander, what's wrong?".
"Look at it! Miyano-kun!"
After Shinozuka Yinan finished cursing, he immediately handed the telegram to the Chief of Staff Miyano Michichi on the opposite side and said.
"Two infantry squadrons were destroyed. The enemy has moved the blocking location from Jiujiang Slope two kilometers north of Zhenting City to the mountainous area where Xiangji Temple and Wangyou Pavilion are located one kilometer north. And there
The terrain is steep and difficult to defend but difficult to attack."
After reading the telegram, Miyano Michichi pointed to the map, and then said in a serious voice to Shinozuka Yoshinan: "From the map, the situation reported in Takeshita Taro's call is correct."
"Even if he has 20,000 troops, under such terrain conditions, he can only deploy two infantry brigades, which is already the limit."
"If we forcefully attack these two hills, the enemy's light and heavy machine guns will tower over them and sweep over a large area. The imperial troops attacking the mountains will inevitably suffer heavy casualties."
Although Shinozuka Yinan knew that Takeshita Taro was right, he was a little angry when he thought that arriving under the mountain where Xiangjiji Temple and Wangyou Pavilion were located to conduct a test attack would suddenly reduce the strength of the two infantry squadrons.
After all, up until now, Taro Takeshita's troops' counterattack southward has been very unsatisfactory.
If time delays, will the army commanded by Taro Takeshita follow in the footsteps of the 36th Division and the 41st Infantry Regiment?
Thinking of this, Shinozuka Yinan felt excited.
Regarding Taro Takeshita sending another secret message asking for help, I felt that I was no longer so blocked.
"Can the 6th Parachute Battalion be dispatched at any time now?"
Shinozuka Yoshinami opened his mouth and asked Miyano Michichi.
"Okay, Commander."
Regarding the only paratrooper unit directly under the First Army, Miyano Michichi also valued it very much, so he replied.
"Then immediately order the 6th Paratrooper Battalion to assemble and dispatch a transport plane to land near Zhenting City. Order the 6th Paratrooper Battalion to capture Zhenting City first and rescue the Xiyuan Palace."
After thinking about it, Shinozuka Yinan looked at the map and pondered for a while before finally deciding where to parachute the paratroopers sent out, and said.
"Commander."
Miyano Michichi thought for a while, pointed to the military map on the table in front of the command room, and said: "Why not let the 6th Parachute Battalion parachute into Jiujiang Slope?"
"This place is less than one kilometer behind the enemy's main blocking force. Once Jiujiangpo is captured, the enemy's main blocking force in front will inevitably collapse!"
At this point, Shinozuka Yinan already understood what White House No Michichi meant, so he waved his hand and said: "Although the 6th Paratrooper Battalion is an elite paratrooper unit directly under our First Army, it is also the only one."
"If there are two paratroopers, parachute landing on Jiujiang Slope is of course the most appropriate, but we only have one battalion of paratroopers, which is more than 500 people."
"Even if these elite paratroopers take Jiujiangpo, can they divide their troops and go north to attack the enemy forces blocking the mountains where Xiangji Temple and Wangyou Pavilion are located?"
Upon hearing this, Miyano Michichi shook his head and said, "No, Commander."
"That's right!"
Shinozuka Yinan pointed to Zhenting City behind Jiujiangpo on the map and said: "Moreover, once the parachute landing on Jiujiangpo cannot be captured quickly, the enemy troops in Zhenting City will definitely leave the city and cooperate with Jiujiangpo.
The enemy troops on the slope attacked our 6th Parachute Battalion, which parachuted to Jiujiang slope."
"Once this happens, the 6th Parachute Battalion will be in danger."
Hearing this, Miyano Michichi also came to his senses. He did not expect this situation.
"But Commander, the 6th Parachute Battalion parachuted near Zhenting City. If Zhenting City cannot be captured quickly, it will be very troublesome."
Miyano Michichi bit the bullet and raised his concerns.
