"The so-called sniper firepower means occupying the commanding heights and building sniper positions and sniper firepower at the highest point!"

After pausing, Takemasa Watanabe continued: "Of course, the sniper firepower mentioned here is not a single-pointed sniper. Machine guns and even war defense cannons can be placed at the commanding heights.

It can also act as sniper firepower, and the effect is better. The only disadvantage is that the machine gun and combat artillery targets are too obvious, easily exposed, and not flexible enough, so they are easily countered by enemy firepower!

In short, in street fighting, whoever occupys the commanding heights will win the street fighting.

At least, it's closer to victory."

"Suga!" Nakajima nodded to the go.

Caochangchen also admired: "It seems that there is still a big difference between street fighting in this city and field fighting.

The reason why the imperial army was invincible before was because it did not meet the Chinese commander who was well versed in the essence of street fighting.

Now it seems that the defeat of the Imperial Army's 9th Regiment seems to be reasonable."

Takemasa Watanabe said again: "Your Excellency the division commander, the two brigade commanders, are also very particular about infantry assaults in street battles."

"Nani? Infantry also have some specialties?" Caochang Tan's eyes lit up and he urged: "Watanabe, please continue to talk quickly."

"Hayi!" Takemasa Watanabe bowed his head and continued: "First of all, it is to advance! The commander who is well versed in the essence of street fighting will not set firepower on the street, but will deploy firepower in the private buildings on both sides, which is what we call side-strike firepower.

Therefore, when infantry advance, they must not walk in the center of the street, but should be close to the base of the walls on both sides!

In this way, at least one side can be avoided, making it impossible for the enemy to form cross-fire.

If possible, it is best not to push forward along the streets and alleys, but to launch an attack directly from the ruins of the houses.

Another thing is that soldiers must always keep their minds highly concentrated, and the pointing of the muzzle must be consistent with their sight, so that the bullet can hit the first place where the eyes see."

"Sodesnai!" Caochangchen frowned and said, "The 9th Regiment of the Imperial Army was defeated by this!"

After a pause, Caochangchen continued: "Watanabe, if you are in charge of command next, will you be confident of defeating the Chinese army in the city?"

Before Watanabe Takemasato could speak, Sasaki got to the front and interrupted: "Caochang Tsubasa, what do you mean? Your 19th Brigade has been defeated, so my 30th Brigade should continue to launch an attack next."

As he said that, Sasaki stood up and turned his eyes to Akasago Nakajima, asking for battle: "Hissing Commander, the 33rd Regiment and the 38th Regiment under my 30th Brigade have completed the rectification and replenished their troops. At the same time, they have completely restored their former combat power.

Therefore, in this battle, our 30th Brigade will definitely be able to slash Kunshan City and wipe out the Chinese army in the city. The 19th Brigade of the Yixue Emperor Army will be defeated by the defeat!"

Caochang Tatsuya said: "Hmph! Sasaki arrived. Although my 19th Brigade failed in the first battle, it completely captured the Chinese army's field positions outside the city and the Jokawa position.

Strictly trapped in the city!

Are you asking for a fight now? Do you want to take the opportunity to pick the fruits of my 19th Brigade?

Sasaki, you may not be too sinister or despicable, right?"

"Haha! Am I sinister and despicable?" Sasaki sneered repeatedly: "Caochang, you are shameless and really refreshed my cognition!

It was clearly the Chinese army that took the initiative to give up the peripheral field fortifications and the Chenghuan fortifications and retreated to the city?

Why did it become you defeated?

If you are defeated by your troops, then the entire 9th Regiment will be destroyed, how do you explain?”

Caochangchen said: "If it weren't for fear of the front of my 19th Brigade, would the Chinese army voluntarily give up the outer positions and hide in the city?

Why can't your 30th Brigade let the Chinese army retreat into the city on its own initiative?"

Sasaki said with a blushing face and said with a rough neck: "As far as I know, the Chinese army retreated into the city overnight.

In other words, they didn’t know that the siege would be your troops today!

Therefore, the Chinese Army was completely afraid of the front of our 30th Brigade, so they took the initiative to retreat into the city!"

"Enough!"

Nakajima Imago shouted again, interrupting Sasaki's words from Ichiji and Choiba, and then turned his sharp eyes to Takemasato Watanabe and said with a stern expression: "Watanabe, if you are commanded by you in this battle, you will be confident that you will win in one battle and wipe out the Chinese army in the city!"

When Watanabe Takeshi heard this, a flush suddenly burst out from his face, and his heart churned in an instant.

The division commander Nakajima Atsugo's words are much more authoritative than Caochang Tatsu.

Speaking of which, after just returning from studying in Germany, Takemasa Watanabe was full of confidence. He thought that he would show his ambitions after returning to China and soon became a rising star in the army.

However, imagination is beautiful, but the cruel reality directly gave him a heavy hammer.

Because Takemasa Watanabe discovered that almost all the positions of commander in the army that suited him to show his ambitions were occupied by some seniors who were in the corpse.

In addition, there are a large number of officers who are older, more experienced and more connected to him, waiting for a vacancies to appear in their posts.

And Takemasa Watanabe, who has no connections and no qualifications, will have almost no hope of becoming a captain in the short term if nothing unexpected happens!

In the end, his mentor at the Army University did not want his talents to be buried. After the Battle of Shanghai broke out, he was arranged to be the counselor of the Shanghai Expeditionary Army Headquarters.

Takemasa Watanabe really thought that after coming to the Chinese battlefield, he should be able to show his ambitions?

As a result, reality gave him a loud slap. As a small major officer in the Expeditionary Army Headquarters, he was a junior with no connections and no qualifications. He was not valued at all, and he had no say.

Just doing odd jobs at the headquarters.

However, none of this matters now.

Because at this moment, the opportunity has been placed in front of him!

At this moment, Watanabe Takemasato paused his head and said with excitement: "Hayi! Beizhi will never let down the expectations of the division commander. He will definitely annihilate the Chinese army in the city as soon as possible and not allow him to escape!"

"Yo Xi!" Nakajima Imago nodded: "From now on, you will be the tactical consultant of this battle! Be sure to assist the 19th Brigade of the Imperial Army to win the battle as soon as possible, and wipe out the Chinese enemy in Kunshan City, so as not to escape!"

"Hayi!"

Takemasa Watanabe's high-spirited focus.

Nakajima Ashigo turned his attention to Sasaki and Ichiyao and Chaebata, and asked, "Sasaki, Chaebata, do you two have any questions?"

Both of them shook their heads.

The division commander said, "As the defeated general, Sasaki, dared to have any doubts?"

Caochangchen has already borrowed troops, so there will be no doubts.
Chapter completed!
