Even with the city wall of Xinxiang County as a defense, it will not work, and it will even affect the people in the city.
Therefore, we must take the initiative to attack, find favorable terrain, and set up an ambush halfway!
Only by launching an ambush can we have the possibility of victory! "
Having said that, Yang Chen got up slowly, came to the wall where the battle map was hung, picked up the baton, pointed to a point and said: "Wanjialing is about 50 miles away from Xinxiang County, this is the must for the Japanese army to go to Xinxiang from Xiuwu. The place of passage!
Unless they are willing to take side roads, detour at least 50 miles more, and give up taking a car and walk instead! "
Everyone's eyes were on like a torch, and they listened attentively.
After a pause, Yang Chen continued: "According to the information provided by the underground party, it will take some time for the Japanese army to assemble so many troops.
It will be tomorrow at the earliest.
However, there is not much time left for us, only one night.
We must rush to Wanjialing overnight and set up an ambush circle there! "
Yang Chen looked around with sharp eyes, and said abruptly: "Does anyone have a different opinion?
If not, gather your team now! "
"Yes!"
Everyone stood up in unison and made a promise.
……
The executive power of the Huben regiment is extremely strong, far beyond what ordinary troops can match.
In less than two hours, the scattered teams all assembled.
Yang Chen knew that even though he had captured Xinxiang, there must still be ghosts in Xinxiang.
In order not to leak the news, Yang Chen did not let these troops enter the city, but stationed outside the city.
Then, when it was late at night, he led the troops in the city, left the city from the west gate, and rushed towards Wanjialing quietly.
In the battle last night, although the Huben regiment won a complete victory, there were also many casualties.
Except for Liao Yong, the deputy head of the regiment, who led the secret service battalion, the tank and chariot battalion to maintain order in the county, and the doctors and nurses who helped the field hospital to treat the wounded, the rest of the battalions were all dispatched, with a total strength of about 1500 people.
This is also the largest force that the Huben Regiment can mobilize at present. Although hundreds of new recruits have been recruited today, these recruits have never touched guns, let alone professional military training, and it is impossible to form effective combat effectiveness. Reaction on the battlefield.
Naturally, it cannot be sent to the battlefield.
…………
Chapter 961 The Youngest Japanese Colonel! (Second update!)
In order not to leak the news, Yang Chen quietly led his troops out of the city until 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.
Among them, Xinxiang is about 50 miles away from Wanjialing, while Xiuwu is only 30 miles away from Xinxiang.
If the Japanese troops set out at full speed, they would be able to reach Wanjialing from Xiuwu in less than an hour.
The Huben regiment must arrive at Wanjialing before the Japanese army and build fortifications.
Therefore, there is not much time left for the Huben Group.
After leaving Xinxiang City, Yang Chen led his troops and ran all the way towards Wanjialing.
It took less than an hour and a half for the army of the Huben regiment to reach the place for a distance of 50 miles.
Wanjia Territory is located at the southern foot of Taihang Mountain. It is a hilly area, and a road passes through the mountains.
This highway is the place that must pass from Xiuwu to Xinxiang.
Before they had time to rest, Yang Chen, Wang Gui and others directed the soldiers to rush to repair the ambush fortifications on the high ground on both sides of the road.
Fortunately, the terrain here is relatively high, condescending, and covered with all kinds of weeds and weeds.
Therefore, there is no need to spend too much effort to build a concealed bunker.
More than 1500 soldiers, under the personal leadership of the group leader Yang Chen, worked together, and in just two or three hours, they dug a few simple trenches and used some vegetation as cover.
Making preparations before the ambush, Yang Chen immediately asked his brothers to rest for a while, hoping to recover some physical strength before the army of devils arrived.
Yang Chen handed over the troops to Wang Gui, Xu Hailang and Chen Ming to command.
He himself came to the artillery position.
In this ambush operation, there was a large disparity between the strength of the enemy and the enemy, so at the very beginning of the battle, it was necessary to concentrate firepower as much as possible to cause as much damage to the little devil as possible, and to narrow the gap in strength between the two sides.
Only by disrupting the devil's organizational system and command system can it be beneficial to the next battle.
In particular, this devil army also has strategic weapons and equipment such as tanks and armored vehicles, so the role of artillery is particularly important.
This time, Yang Chen took out all his wealth, and there were more than 40 grenadiers in total.
There are also more than 20 60-caliber mortars, and 10 75-caliber infantry guns.
Some of them were seized from the Japanese army in Xinxiang.
It is worth mentioning that, in order not to arouse suspicion, Yang Chen did not buy new weapons from the system mall for the time being.
……
The quiet time was fleeting, and soon, it was 7 o'clock in the morning, and it was dawn.
Outside Xiuwu City, Colonel Matsushita Hongcheng had assembled his troops and gave an impassioned speech.
He then led the army and marched mightily towards Xinxiang.
Because the information showed that after the Huben Regiment captured Xinxiang, they were looting houses and recruiting soldiers. They were busy all day yesterday, which was an exhilarating experience.
In addition, this operation is very secretive and very fast.
Therefore, Matsushita Hongcheng subconsciously believed that the Huben group had not received the information, let alone took precautions.
Therefore, this guy is called an arrogant person.
Along the way, he was arrogant and kept urging the army to speed up.
Matsushita Hongcheng was only 26 years old. Originally, at this age, it was unlikely that he would become the commander of the Japanese army.
However, because their Matsushita family has a somewhat close relationship with the royal family, and Matsushita Hongcheng himself is also a fanatical young soldier, his style and philosophy coincide with the current Japanese cabinet prime minister Hideki Tojo.
