Chapter 290 Positional warfare, not easy to fight(2/2)
As a general who is very good at fighting, he knows a lot about the Japanese attack method.
Attack in the middle, encircle both sides.
The Japanese army's fighting style is very rigid.
At this time, the tiger zombie was conducting the third war deduction.
The result of the deduction is not very ideal.
With Nanchang falling, it is not easy to win the Battle of Changsha.
Nanchang...
The tiger swears.
If Nanchang is lost, where should we put the main battlefield?
He had ordered the 16th Army, the 1st Division of the New Fourth Army, to defend.
But his expectations for defense are not optimistic.
He knew very well the combat effectiveness of the Sixty Army, and the combat effectiveness was only medium.
The New Fourth Army has very strong combat power.
But unfortunately, there is only one division.
Although they transferred three powerful combat power groups from Shanxi.
But it's just a drop in the bucket.
The three regiments, no matter how powerful the combat power is, there are still too few people.
If a division of the Japanese army attacks with all its might.
Relying on the 60th Army and the First Division of the New Fourth Army, it could not be defended at all.
Should I give up on Nanchang?
Retreat all the troops and strengthen Hunan's defense?
"How is the troops guarding Nanchang now?" Tiger Zai asked his chief of staff.
The Chief of Staff of the Eleventh Army was a very gentle man.
Wearing glasses.
Beautiful and gentle.
At first glance, he is a Confucian general.
The chief of staff pushed his glasses and said, "The commander, the troops guarding Nanchang have arrived at the scheduled time. The three Eighth Route Army groups reinforced by Shanxi also arrived today."
He received a telegram earlier today.
It is said that the three strengthening regiments of the Eighth Route Army have arrived in Nanchang.
The allocated weapons have also been sent to them.
Tiger Zai said, "Why is Li Lei really here?"
The Chief of Staff was stunned: "Yes, Li Lei is here, his troops are the New Third Regiment."
Tiger Zai smiled: "This Li Lei is an amazing person! I hope he won't let me down this time."
The Chief of Staff said: "I am also looking forward to his performance. But to be honest, I'm not optimistic."
The tiger cried out: "Tell me, why?"
The Chief of Staff said: "Li Lei is very powerful, I don't deny this. But this is the south, not Shanxi. He faces the most elite troops of the Japanese army. They are all Class A divisions. This is not a matter of time with the third-rate divisions of the Japanese army in Shanxi.
Moreover, he is just a team leader.
His troops are too few.
To put it bluntly, many commanders will die in this battle.
Many times, one group after another fills in.
Even a splash of water cannot emerge.
No matter how powerful his regiment is, the Japanese army will have the fate of being annihilated when facing the attack of a Japanese division.
You and I can see this clearly.
In this battle, our 11th Army had 200,000 people.
The 11th Army of Okamura Yasuji had ninety thousand people.
Two to one.
Such a ratio is very dangerous for us.
If you want one, under normal circumstances, the proportion of the number of people fighting with the Japanese army is five to one.
Only by five to one can you get a draw with the Japanese army.
Now it is two to one, and the intensity of the battle will be very high.
As soon as the war began, a regiment would be gone, and it would not last even a day."
This is right.
A big battle like this is a meat grinder.
At the end of a day, it is possible to fight less than two or three divisions.
It's really a bit whimsical to expect Li Lei's group to make a difference.
Outside Nanchang City.
Li Lei and Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei observe the terrain.
Their mission this time is to defend a highland outside Nanchang City.
That high ground is very important.
If the highlands are occupied by the Japanese army, you can overlook Nanchang City.
By then, with a cannon, the entire Nanchang City would not be able to defend it at all.
The terrain of this highland is not as dangerous as it is.
But the location is very important.
At that time, it will definitely be the key direction of the Japanese attack.
It is difficult to keep Li Lei and the other three teams guarding this place.
Li Lei observed the terrain.
Think about the weapons and equipment of my own group again.
A little worried.
Most of the weapons allocated are light weapons.
There are a lot of bullets and guns.
But there are no heavy weapons either.
It is impossible to watch a few guns guarding here.
When he came, his new third regiment brought a lot of mortars and several infantry cannons, but Li Lei did not fight with the Japanese field troops.
I don't know the true strength of the Japanese army.
So he was a little confused.
Li Yunlong's troops were on the left, a little closer to the back.
That is the second line of defense.
Chu Yunfei's Independent Second Regiment serves as a reserve team.
If Li Lei and Li Yunlong's troops could not stand it, Chu Yunfei's troops would rush forward.
positional warfare……
Not easy to fight!
Li Yunlong frowned and said, "Li Lei, this is a typical positional battle. If we defend this mountain to the death, it would be a loss."
Li Lei nodded.
When fighting positional warfare, we are fighting weapons and equipment.
Their weapons and equipment can also be tied when fighting against the Japanese army in Shanxi.
However, facing the Japanese field army, it is a bit too difficult to see.
The opponent has heavy artillery and tanks.
Then there will be a burst of riots.
