Chapter 1137 Can only stare!
Although the main force of the Japanese devils implemented a three-in-one siege on the Sanqiao County, and even the Japanese's middle army had arrived and had sufficient troops, a few days have passed, and the Japanese did not launch a large-scale attack on the Sanqiao County, but there were still small-scale disturbances.
The reason for this situation is actually easy to judge: the Japanese lack ammunition, especially the shells, which are indispensable in modern siege battles. The Japanese are well-equipped, which is well reflected in this regard.
But it also shows that modern warfare's dependence on weapons is constantly increasing. Although the Japanese have sufficient troops now, even twice as many as the defenders of the assault regiments in the city, they still dare not attack rashly. It is because of the lack of ammunition that it can be seen how dependent the Japanese have on weapons.
Of course, this is a bit harsh to the assault regiment, but whoever says that the assault regiment is inferior to others can take risks with their lives. Otherwise, if they do not have the spirit of dying and their weapons are not as good as the other party, how can they fight this battle?
Faced with the situation of the Japanese, although Zhang Qingshan and the others had already understood this, there was no good way to take your life while you were sick. The sneak attack troops sent earlier almost got into the Japanese trap. It can be seen that the Japanese not only had judged these, but also made detailed prevention and deployment. In this case, if they still took the risk of sneak attacking, it would be the commander's incompetence.
The only thing that can be done is to take advantage of the main force of the Japanese devils being concentrated outside the city and send people to destroy the Japanese transport convoy on the way to come, hoping to kill the Japanese transport convoy, thus breaking the Japanese's plan to wait until the ammunition is transported and then attack the city. However, everyone understands that the Japanese devils are not idiots. Since they can think of it, and have done this more than once before, the Japanese devils are stupid, they will definitely make corresponding preparations this time. Their power to protect the convoy must not be killed by some guerrillas, militias, or even a small number of troops.
But at this time, the assault regiment and their forces were also in short supply, and they could not rule out more troops going outside the city, so they could only stare at them... They could no longer draw power from the city. Otherwise, if the power was too weak, let alone the Japanese could easily attack the city, even if the street battles were prepared sufficiently, the power of street battles would be greatly reduced due to insufficient manpower...
In fact, after some discussion, Zhang Qingshan and others had actually turned the tactical focus of the defense battle of Sanqiao County from defending the city to street fighting. Because everyone understood that no matter how strong the city wall was, it would be impossible to hold on for long when the Japanese had sufficient ammunition, especially when the artillery shells were sufficient.
Therefore, Zhang Qingshan agreed to Liu Bing's previous big explosion. Although it killed many Japanese devils, it successfully hit the Japanese morale, forcing them to end this attack in a hurry. But the problem is that such a fighting style is equivalent to killing one thousand enemies and destroying eight hundred of them. The integrity of the city wall was greatly damaged and repaired in a short period of time could not be restored.
Instead of losing the life force at the gate of the city wall, it is better to let the Japanese invade in and fight with them. In this way, there are at least two advantages: First, Zhang Qingshan and others have built a large number of fortifications in the city, all of which are for street fighting. If the Japanese want to break these fortifications, they will inevitably pay a huge price. Once the Japanese's troops are consumed too much here, they will inevitably be unable to proceed to the next step - attack the hinterland of the base;! This achieves the ultimate goal of the entire battle: to preserve the basic integrity of the base, and to prevent the lives and property of the people in the base and the party and government organs from being lost.
Second, in street fighting, the Japanese gunfire power will be suppressed to the minimum: street fighting is close combat, and the power of artillery fire such as small steel cannons is far less powerful than that of gathering together and attacking targets from a distance without any scruples. Moreover, the Japanese gunfire technique is worse than that of this side, but the advantage of gunfire in melee combat will be greatly weakened - at a distance of 20 to 30 meters, how many soldiers will not hit it? On the contrary, there are actually people who shoot each other between about 200 meters, and this is one of the benefits of melee combat.
Anyway, although melee battles are extremely cruel and the sacrifice rate is also very high, they have more benefits, especially for the assault regiments on the defensive side. To be honest, let alone Zhang Qingshan, even Hu Yingze feels that in this battle, melee battles are definitely more beneficial than defending the city. Therefore, with everyone's unanimous agreement, so so many fortifications will be built in Sanqiao County in advance.
Besides, the Japanese have much more troops than the assault regiments. If they think about defending the city wall, they can't defend it. Instead of this, it's better to fight in streets. At least the maximum killing rate of the Japanese can be given to them, which is definitely much greater than the killing rate of the Japanese can be given to them... Defending the city wall is basically equivalent to being bombed. In streets, the Japanese must send troops to attack. Compared with the two, it is clear which has a greater killing rate.
Now, facing the Japanese, who clearly have to wait for ammunition to be replenished, Zhang Qingshan and the others have no good solutions, but they have to do anything. They can't wait for the Japanese's shells to fall on their heads, right?
But the question is, what should I do?
No one thought of a good idea, so they could only do it in a hurry.
But at this moment, the appearance of the main team made Zhang Qingshan and others illuminate: the situation finally improved a little.
As mentioned earlier, the coalition formed by the main force and the New First Regiment defeated the Japanese left-wing army with the Second Japanese acting as the main force. Then, the New First Regiment continued to chase the defeated Second Japanese, and the main force quickly reinforced Qinglong Mountain.
However, when the main force arrived at Qinglong Mountain, not to mention that the main force of the Japanese Central Army had already arrived outside the county town of Sanqiao County, even the brigade he had left before, he followed the three-way army to Sanqiao County town because of the arrival of the middle army... The Japanese were indeed arrogant and accused of thinking that the Eighth Route Army was vulnerable in front of his powerful military force, and he had never considered going deep into the army alone. Therefore, even the "nails" on the retreat were taken back, with the purpose of obviously concentrating all forces and continuing to implement the previous major plan after a battle.
Because the Fourth Battalion had suffered huge casualties in the battle that had previously dragged the Japanese army, only about one-third of the troops left in the entire battalion and was unable to fight again, so he could only watch the Japanese leave and were powerless.
At this time, the arrival of the main group was a bit late for the Fourth Battalion.
However, for Zhang Qingshan and others who were worried about their serious shortage of troops, it was really a timely help.
So, Zhang Qingshan mentioned the identity of commander-in-chief and ordered the main team to be on standby in Qinglong Mountain immediately and repair it at the same time.
In Zhang Qingshan's plan, the task of the main regiment and the Fourth Battalion was to eliminate the Japanese convoys transporting ammunition.
But what surprised Zhang Qingshan and others was that the Japanese convoy did not appear, but the Japanese planes flew here diligently recently.
It is normal for Japanese Agents to participate in the war, and everyone has been mentally prepared for a long time, but the problem is that these Japanese Agents that are flying around did not drop a single * into Sanqiao County, nor did they shoot a bullet down.
This made Zhang Qingshan and others very puzzled, so they naturally sent scouts to investigate: the Japanese planes flew around every day, but they didn't see them attacking. What were they doing... Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even Zhang Qingshan and others didn't know much about the plane. If there weren't a special lecturer who had taught the class before, Zhang Qingshan and the others wouldn't know that the planes were divided into fighters and bombers.
In the end, a scout risked his life to send back the news that everyone was depressed: the Japanese's planes flew around and did not cast their own investments in Sanqiao County, not because of their kindness, but because these planes were either transport planes or bombers, they all delivered ammunition to the Japanese. It was just because the placement point was more than two miles outside Sanqiao County, and it was impossible to see from Sanqiao County, so Zhang Qingshan and the others were puzzled.
The Japanese did not use the transport convoy, but instead used more time-consuming and labor-intensive aircraft to deliver. This opened Zhang Qingshan and others' eyes wide, but they were helpless. Who told Zhang Qingshan and others that they didn't even have anti-aircraft guns, and they didn't even have anti-aircraft machine guns. The distance was far, so they could only stare at them... The Japanese must have been prepared for the sneak attack, and the Japanese must have been prepared for the sneak attack. On the other hand, even if it succeeded once, the Japanese would change a drop point next time. Do you still have to go for a sneak attack? Do you really think that the Japanese were a pig, and you were attacked once or twice by sneak attacks. Is it true that you would give you a trick and design an ambush circle for the third time?
Therefore, the significance of sneak attacks and launching points is not very important, and there is no need to sacrifice rare outstanding soldiers in vain. Then, I can only stare at me.
Well, since there is nothing you can do with this move, but I also have a big move that makes you depressed.
Since the originally planned tasks of the Fourth Battalion and the main force group no longer exist, there was no way to leave such a soldier and horse idle. So Zhang Qingshan thought about it and issued an order to the main force group and the fourth battalion.
The remaining soldiers of the Fourth Battalion immediately followed the 1st Company of the Second Battalion, which was always looking for loopholes in the Japanese. The Second Company met with the Fourth Battalion Commander Peng Peng as the commander of this temporary operation team, and was responsible for dealing with the Japanese from behind the Japanese camp, that is, dragging the Japanese back at all times.
At the same time, we must also be prepared to support Li Jing and the others at any time.
The task of the main force is simpler: immediately, we will form an operation brigade with the third battalion of the assault regiment, the assault company, the artillery company and other forces, waiting for orders, and always prepare to execute the final move - attack the Japanese ammunition depot in the county town. Give the Japanese a cauldron abolish the firewood, thereby completely shattering the dream of these Japanese who want to attack the hinterland of the base, and at the same time, it can also end all battles early, and reserve the capital for the assault regiment and others to continue fighting Japanese.
