Beat the devil with a system

Page 842

Matsuura Ichitaro was furious, and he yelled loudly: "You intelligence departments are all useless, our Imperial Japanese Army has suffered such a big loss, and you don't even know your opponent's intelligence!"

"Hai, humble and incompetent, please forgive me, head of the division!"

The intelligence officer of the Japanese army lowered his head and let Matsuura Ichitaro reprimand him.

Matsuura Ichitaro glanced fiercely at the subordinates on both sides of the conference table, and said in a deep voice: "The Chinese army occupying the Nanshan position is not easy. They took back the Nanshan position in just a few hours, and wiped out all of us. garrison, and even a naval fleet was defeated by them..."

Matsuura Ichitaro was puzzled. As far as he knew, there was no such a powerful first-level brigade combat unit in the 9th theater, and it was even impossible for the ** army to conquer the Nanshan position so quickly.

"Baga, where did this mighty Chinese army come from?"

Just when the devil officers were puzzled, a devil messenger sent an urgent telegram.

"Report to the general, the Hata detachment is urgently calling!"

"Hurry up!"

"Ten minutes ago, the Botian detachment guarding the Madang Fortress was heavily shelled by the Chinese artillery. The leader of the Botian detachment also reported that this time the Chinese army has gathered a large number of troops and crossing tools and is about to launch an attack. Please ask our troops For reinforcements..."

"Nani? Madang Fortress was attacked by the Chinese army again?"

Immediately, Matsuura Ichitaro strode out of the division headquarters with a pair of binoculars.

Walking out of the headquarters, he heard a muffled and far-reaching sound of shelling tens of kilometers away.

Matsuura Ichitaro walked to a commanding height, followed the direction of the shelling sound, and then raised the binoculars in his hand to look into the distance.

Although the sound of the shelling was not very loud, the dense flames of the shells kept flickering in the air, and half of the sky in the distance was reddened by the shells.

The devil's chief of staff next to him said in surprise: "Division commander, the artillery fire of the Chinese army is very fierce. Judging from the artillery offensive, the Chinese army has concentrated the artillery of at least two artillery regiments to attack."

Chapter 759 Cooperate with friendly forces to recapture Madang ([-])

Matsuura Ichitaro nodded, looking at the shells fired like mountains and seas in front of him, he was also shocked.

"General, the Hada detachment asked us for help. Will we agree to reinforce immediately?" the devil's chief of staff asked Matsuura Ichitaro.

Matsuura Ichitaro did not immediately send reinforcements, he called a devil communications officer.

"Immediately send a report to ask the naval fleet, where are they now, and how long will it take to arrive?"

The Devil Communications officer quickly replied: "General, I just asked the navy. The main ship of the third battleship had a breakdown during the voyage. It will take an hour for the fleet to reach us at the fastest."

"Baga, stupid navy, doing bad things again!"

Originally, Matsuura Ichitaro wanted to use the fleet's naval guns to attack, or use warships to support Madang Bay, but now the navy's warships are simply unreliable.

The Japanese army also has the problem of arms and service discrimination. The devil's army has always looked down on the navy, and similarly, the devil's navy has also looked down on the Japanese army.

"The damn navy is unreliable at all. It seems that we have to rely on our army to regain the Nanshan position." Matsuura Ichitaro said with anger,

Then, he said to his subordinates: "Everyone, the Nanshan position has fallen into the hands of the Chinese army, and the Potian detachment in the Madang Fortress is in a hurry. What is your battle plan?"

The devil officers discussed with each other, and they expressed their combat plans and opinions to each other.

A ghost commander stood up and said solemnly: "Your Excellency, the commander of the division, the Nanshan position is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The fortifications are very strong, and the defenders of China are very powerful. I suggest that our army stay still and wait for the cooperation of the air force and the fleet." We attack..."

The rest of the Devil officers had no objections, they all agreed with Chief Devil's opinion.

The current situation is not good for the Japanese army, and it is indeed a wise choice for the devils to avoid the battle. However, the head of the Japanese army division Matsuura Ichitaro seems not satisfied with his subordinates' suggestions.

The Nanshan position occupied by the Japanese army has been lost, and the Madang Fortress is very important. If the 106th Division does not provide reinforcements and the Madang Fortress is lost, the commander will definitely hold Matsuura Ichitaro accountable.

The idea of ​​most devil officers is that tomorrow morning

It would not be too late to reinforce the devil's defenders in Madang. With the defensive power of the Madang fortress and the fighting power of the devil's army, even without reinforcements, it is impossible for the defenders of Madang to be unable to defend overnight.

Matsuura Ichitaro thought for a while, turned his gaze to the major general's chief of staff next to him, and asked, "Tada-kun, what everyone means is that our troops stand still. Do you have any good suggestions?"

The chief of staff of the devil's division is a major general named Tada Heizo. He originally served as the joint commander of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, but is now transferred to the 106th Division of the Japanese Army.

Tada Heizo has a shrewd tactical mind, rich command and combat experience, and is insidious and cunning.

Immediately, Tada Heizo stood up and replied: "Your Excellency, Commander, our army does not have any offensive advantage at the moment. A strong attack on the Nanshan position will cost a lot of casualties. However, the Madang Fortress is very important, and we must immediately reinforce it."

Matsuura Ichitaro thinks highly of Chief of Staff Tada Heizo, and Tada Heizo is his think tank. Most of them suggest that Matsuura Ichitaro will listen and agree.

After Tada Heizo finished speaking, he soon had differences of opinion with other Japanese military officers.

A devil major general stood up dissatisfied, and said in a bad tone: "Mr. Tada, don't just talk on paper. The Chinese army in the Nanshan position is in front of us. How can our troops reinforce the Botian detachment in the Madang Fortress?"

Not long after Tada Heizo was transferred to the 106th Division, some senior devil generals refused to accept him, and rarely adopted his tactical suggestions.interesting reading

Tada Heizo turned his head and thought for a few seconds, and said to everyone: "Everyone, my suggestion is to order the artillery to shell the Chinese defenders at the Nanshan position and make a feint attack. Then, we will quietly dispatch a The troops landed on the tidal flat by water, bypassing the Nanshan position..."

Tada Ping San strode to the bottom of the map, pointed to the river bank of the Nanshan position, and told all the devil officers and generals his battle plan.

"If our army successfully lands on this tidal flat by boat, our soldiers can get into the reeds, and then use the cover of the reeds to bypass the sight of the Nanshan defenders, go directly to the Madang Fortress, and rescue the Botian detachment... "

After the devil officers and generals heard the battle plan, no one had any objections.

"well!"

(I.e.

Ichitaro, the old devil, had a smile on his face. He said with a smile: "Tada-kun, your battle plan is very good. It can not only avoid heavy casualties in our army, but also reinforce the Hada detachment."

Matsuura Ichitaro immediately decided to adopt Tada Heizo's combat plan and suggestions, and then he began to mobilize troops for combat deployment.

"Tonight, the 145th Regiment will be responsible for the mission of feint attack and crossing the river for reinforcements. The rest of the ministries must fully cooperate and hurry to mobilize the boats crossing the river!"

"Ha Yi, head of the division!!!"

The devil officers in the conference room responded one after another, and soon, they were busy performing their duties...

The action of the Japanese army was very fast. In less than an hour, various departments of the Japanese army mobilized more than [-] large and small river crossing boats and small boats.

In addition to sending the 145th regiment, the devil also dispatched an artillery regiment to cooperate with the feint attack.

The first and second battalions of the 145th regiment were responsible for the task of crossing the river for the Japanese army. All the devil soldiers who fought were assembled, and they moved the boats to the river bank in groups of three or four.

It was pitch black on the bank of the river, and there was almost no light to be seen, only the sound of insects and frogs could be heard.

"Everyone get off the boat quickly and prepare to cross the river!"

As soon as the devil troops crossing the river heard the commander's order, they immediately pushed the boats and wooden boats into the river.

Subsequently, more than [-] devil soldiers quickly boarded the boats on the river bank with light and heavy weapons and ammunition.
