.

After fighting for a night, Masayoshi Inoue felt cold... The division will focus on the interests of the entire Kwantung Army, and even if it is broken, it will be spared. His task is to delay the possibility of Chen Guang's field troops entering the battlefield again. Whether it is invested in the Lindian battlefield or the Longzhen battlefield, as long as the three columns in Chen Guang's hands are released, the 14th Division and the 12th Division will not be able to stand it. For this reason, the 23rd Division must take the initiative to attack.

However, in less than half a day, Chen Guang's first attack began.

"Madman, this abominable madman."

Masayoshi Inoue secretly cursed Chen Guang over and over again. After the troops fought for a week, Chen Guang actually did not give him a day to rest. After the main force crossed the river, he immediately began to pester the 23rd Division defending the river.

Masayoshi Inoue felt frustrated and even had the idea of ​​hitting the wall: he was going to use it to deal with Chen Guang.

However, Li Lin let him see the true mystery contained in this tactic. When the two armies fought, the Japanese army could not stabilize the entire defense line by blindly defending. It was time for infantry soldiers to choose a surprise attack, which is a very important part of the tactic. When the infantry between the two armies was fighting, Li Lin's troops fought against the lee and gained a small advantage.

But this is such a small advantage that allows the troops of a company at the forefront of the 5th Column to gain an absolute advantage.

Sprinkle pepper noodles with leeward

Such a vulgar tactic was so vulgar that the proud Japanese army would not think of it even if they split their heads. But Li Lin used it like this, and he was very reasonable and was completely incomparable.

At that time, a soldier from the 5th Column of a company blocked the Japanese anti-raid infantry. As the Japanese army was about to break into the position, the 5th Column's position was dark red and pink fog spread out in the wind. It was about to enter hand-to-hand combat, and the Japanese army also stared at the front, not daring to slacken. At the beginning, the Japanese squadron leader who was commanding the charge thought it was a chemical weapon and held his breath.

But as soon as he contacted Hongwu, he knew it was broken.

Tears were flowing down, and they couldn't stop them. A handful of pepper noodles that were worthless had achieved the effect of tear gas bombs worth dozens of dollars per round.

From beginning to end, this squadron's Japanese army riot was a tragedy of massacre.

Unfortunately, Masayoshi Inoue saw this process. At first he thought that chemical weapons were used up. Unfortunately, the gas bombs carried by the 23rd Division had been consumed, otherwise the two armies would not be able to lose their points. But when a Japanese soldier fled back to his position and told him what he encountered, Masayoshi Inoue felt cold.

This is not a war

Masayoshi Inoue did not expect that his opponent would use the street method to "do things wrong" on the front battlefield. This is definitely not what a soldier should do. Masayoshi Inoue roared and turned his mouth awkwardly, and Li Lin would not pay attention to him.

In the internal tactical booklet of the 5th Column, the effect of sprinkling pepper noodles is worse than that of sprinkling lime, which has been tested on the battlefield. If it were replaced with quicklime powder, the Japanese's eyes could be cooked at that time. Lieutenant General Masayoshi Inoue was an orthodox soldier, and the rules and regulations of the rituals were in guerrilla warfare.

All the damage tricks that can be used on the battlefield were compiled into a booklet and distributed to each company commander.

It is used as a tactical textbook, but sometimes it fails. For example, sprinkling lime in the wind, and the one who is unlucky in the end is yourself.

Lieutenant General Masayoshi Inoue commanded two complete infantry brigades. After resisting for a long time, he was exhausted. His stomach was soft, his mouth was undulating, and he was breathing heavily. He was the commander of the Japanese Lieutenant General Division, so he was not tired. He was completely angry by Li Lin's rogue.

Commanding the battle requires a high degree of concentration. The Japanese 23rd Division has suffered from the 5th Column and the concentration has been too concentrated. Everyone in the division's troops are nervous and tense, and their tense nerves almost broke.

It doesn't matter if it takes a short time. Over time, the Japanese army's physical strength suddenly became problematic.

The highly nervous nerves caused the Japanese army's physical fitness to drop sharply. Li Lin also took this point and immediately used the artillery battalion to the battlefield. After a round of cannons, a gap was torn open by the defense line built by the two Japanese brigades.

The old 3rd regiment rushed out of the position, and the soldiers rushed towards the Japanese position like tigers from the mountain.

With one blow, the gap in the defense line of the 23rd Division became larger and larger. Even if the reserve team came up, it was useless. After all, the 5th Column had an absolute advantage in military strength. Seeing this scene, Lieutenant General Masayoshi Inoue's determination to resist gradually weakened.

This battle cannot be fought

This is the voice of all the officers and soldiers of the 23rd Division.

Li Lin is meaningless to this. During the 5th Column crossing the river, four or more regiments were sacrificed, and the troops suffered more than 2,000 direct casualties, with a lot of indirect casualties. These were all casualties caused by the right wing defense line of the 23rd Division. In the eyes of Li Lin and the commanders and fighters of the 5th Column, the 23rd Division was the enemy of the entire 5th Column.

If you don’t take revenge at this time, when will you wait for revenge?

But Lieutenant General Masayoshi Inoue no longer dared to give Li Lin a chance to avenge him. After the defense line was loosened, he immediately ordered the artillery firepower to reinforce. The divided troops on the right wing moved closer to the depth and met the main force in the rear. Of course, this was not a big mistake.

As long as the retreat is smooth, the casualties of the 23rd Division will not be too great.

The casualties of two or three hundred people are still affordable for an army of more than 5,000 people.

However, the Japanese army who were preparing to retreat, except for the 180 people who were fighting and blocking, all 100 people died in battle, and the other 1,000 infantrymen had only escaped. I don’t know where the company commander of the 3rd Company came from a truck of glass bottles. In short, this thing came from the Japanese army. Before the Japanese infantry passed the road, they ambushed on both sides of the road. Soon after, the glass bottles of this truck turned into glass scraps and scattered on the road.

When the Japanese retreating infantry passed through the highway, the machine gun fired.

The Japanese cooperated and lay down on the road. It didn't matter if they lay down. Then a few Japanese who had no experience in the battlefield bounced up from the ground, and the key part was stuck in half a glass. The injury was not serious, but the impact on the momentum was fatal.

The 3rd Company of the Riding Company performed this good show, plus the two heavy machine gun positions on the side of the road.

Nearly a thousand Japanese devils were dragged down for more than one to this extent. Lieutenant General Masayoshi Inoue no longer wanted to use blood to block Chen Guang's pace. His life was like an abandoned glass bottle, crisp and crunchy and unable to withstand the tossing.

After finally gathering up the remaining troops, Lieutenant General Masayoshi Inoue asked his subordinates to ask for a troop. There were more than 5,000 people 8 hours ago. With just a little effort, 2,000 people were gone.

No, after all, there are 3,000 troops available.

But on the side of the road, Lieutenant General Inoue Masayoshi parked a heavy truck next to him, looking at the dejected soldiers, sadness came from his heart.

Suddenly, the guards beside him immediately supported Lieutenant General Masayoshi Inoue, who angrily pushed away the guard's support and whispered: "Do you think I'm a big fool?"

It doesn’t matter if you defeat the battle. The key is that Lieutenant General Masayoshi Inoue is so frustrated. He is also very worried when he meets the guards. The surroundings are messy. Maybe he didn’t hear Masayoshi Inoue clearly. He bows his head and bows, "Hi..."

“Baga…”

Inoue Masayoshi tightly held the knife handle with white gloves, as if he had used all his strength to pull out the command knife in his hand.

But in the end he did not do so. For a general, no soldier was a bad soldier, and the failure of any battle should not be attributed to the incompetence of the soldiers. Instead, the commander's inaction caused immeasurable losses.

Masayoshi Inoue at least has the courage to take on the responsibility for failure in combat.

Put down the guards and find the staff officer of the division headquarters, Major Ono, and asks: "How long will it take to reach Nikesan?"

The Grandmaster had just seen the map, but it was night now, and the surroundings were pitch black and there were no references to use. The only way was to calculate it in mind. Most of the Japanese staff members who were not able to be promoted to the Grandmaster were born in the Imperial Army University.

Major Ono said respectfully: "There are still twenty kilometers left, and you can reach 2Kaki before dawn."

As a small town on the road, after the 23rd Division arrived in Nike Asahi, Masayoshi Inoue could not fulfill his promise to Iijima Ryu and was preparing to pull the troops upstream of the Nèn River to try to cross the river. If they continued to fight, the 23rd Division was not crushed to death in terms of troops, but was depressed.

Masayoshi Inoue felt chills on his back when he thought about it.

The next day, at dawn, in the wild, several archways appeared alone in sight.

When the soldiers of the 23rd Division saw this, their tense hearts suddenly relaxed. The quiet riverside town is more of a resting place for soldiers who have experienced a hard battle. Hot rice balls, fresh vegetables, it is best to have a cow or some young mothers. When they think of this, the saliva in the mouths of the defeated Japanese soldiers became wet.

A small team of Japanese scouts rushed to the town's village.

This is just a habit. Arrangement of scouts in front of the marching team can avoid sudden attacks.

Just as these more than 30 Japanese scouts were about to approach the wall of the village, suddenly two flames appeared at the two machine gun positions on the trench beside each other, forming a fire interface, wrapping the more than 30 Japanese in it. Several fire points suddenly appeared on the wall of the village, condescending, Czech-style points chasing the figure.

In less than a bag of cigarettes, the scouts composed of veterans in the Japanese army fell in a pool of blood.

"Enemy attack..."

The Japanese army's front was very unsatisfactory, with trucks squeezing on the road and soldiers surrounding the trucks. It was difficult for the troops to launch a counterattack.

In his glasses, Zeng Jian caught a glimpse of the field cannon pulled behind the Japanese truck at a glance.

"Send a signal flare and order the 3rd Regiment to penetrate the central part of the Japanese army and isolate the trucks and infantry."

Three red signal flares rose higher and higher as Qi Mingxing rose.

If Masayoshi Inoue still didn't know that he was ambushed, he would be a fool: "Order the 2nd Battalion to block the attack, and the division troops followed the 72nd Regiment to evacuate south."

After Masayoshi Inoue issued an order, the Japanese army immediately began to prepare for the defense line.

But Zeng Jian, who was secretly observing the movements of the Japanese army in the village, was stunned. Are the Japanese cowards?

Even though he seized a large number of heavy weapons from the 23rd Division, he still felt no joy in his heart.

More than an hour later, Baizhou on the riverside, the reeds that could not be seen for several miles suddenly ignited a raging fire. The flames were covered with black smoke, stretching their teeth and claws to the sky... x!
