    Chapter 413: Tempering the Troops

    The original plan of the commander of the 17th Division, Ichitobei, was to use the tactics of "infantry and artillery coordination, barrage advance slowly" to attack the two commanding heights in front of Shentou Village with all his strength, and then open up the way to Kunsha from Shentou Village.  town road.  Chastity hand spanking in this chapter

    Although the Indonesian anti-foreign forces are tenacious and good at fighting, they occupy favorable terrain and have constant backup.

    However, the Japanese army has already arrived. As long as the two vanguard brigades enter the Shentou Ridge blocking position and hold back the enemy's fire support for Shentou Village on the mountain, a single soldier will cause the Japanese army to attack directly and lose the barrier.  Shentou Village

    "However, it is not as good as God's calculation.  The commander of the Indonesian Anti-Foreign Army was as cunning as a fox, hiding his strongest strength and causing heavy losses to the Japanese army at the critical moment.

    After the artillery battle, the Japanese artillery positions were littered with corpses and stained with blood.  Countless limbs, broken arms, shell fragments, blown-up cannons and large and small rocks were scattered on the position, making the scene a mess.

    Many injured Japanese officers and soldiers were shouting and moaning in pain. The miserable situation was unbearable to witness.

    The Japanese division commanders Ichitobei, Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi and others stood on the hill holding telescopes and watched all this in stunned silence.

    Although the telegram sent back by the 19th Regiment of the Ninth Division once mentioned that Indonesian anti-foreign military forces attacked them with artillery and heavy machine guns.

    However, Ichibei and others did not expect that the Indonesian Anti-Foreign Army, which was located in a corner and had no industrial foundation or technological level, actually had such a powerful artillery unit. It caused heavy losses to the Japanese artillery unit in one round and lost most of them.  combat capability.  Please log in to the chapter

    Soon, the Japanese commander reacted and hurriedly ordered people to rescue the lightly and seriously injured and military supplies. He also ordered the Japanese troops that were about to launch an attack to stop operations immediately and disperse and stand by.

    After the order was issued, Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi's face turned sinister, and he gritted his teeth and cursed angrily: "The precious artillery troops on Bageya Road and the large number of artillery shells that were finally transported here were wiped out. These hateful Chinese people,  He had planned it for so long that he didn¡¯t even want to expose his heavy machine gun early. He was so cunning"

    Although he kept shouting and cursing, Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi felt relieved in his heart, and secretly rejoiced: Ichito-kun, my troops have suffered heavy losses. If we continue to fight, they will almost be wiped out. Thank you for coming in time, otherwise  , the responsibility for the most serious failure this time fell on me.

    Ichitobei had just taken over the power of the frontline commander, and before his butt was even warmed up, he suffered such a defeat. He couldn't help but cursed in his heart: No wonder Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi, an arrogant guy like him, handed over to him last night.  When he took over the command, he would be so straightforward and happy, but what he took over was actually an extremely hot potato.

    Seeing Ichitobei's face tense and silent, Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi didn't know that he was with his mother, so he came closer and suggested kindly: "Ichitohei, the places where our infantry are gathering are all in the enemy's  Within the range of the artillery. The enemy's artillery fire is sharp, and I'm afraid they will take advantage of the situation to fire at my infantry. Should I order the infantry to retreat first?"

    Ichitobei thought for a while and said decisively: "No, I will redeploy and continue to launch an attack, and it will be a larger-scale attack."

    Nani?  Will we continue to launch an onslaught without artillery support?  No way, Ichitohebei has always been very rational. Could it be that this time he was hit too hard and his head became dizzy?  Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi was stunned for a moment.

    "Order the commanders above the regiment to immediately hold a combat meeting at the division headquarters." Ichitobei ignored Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi and walked down the mountain while saying to the staff officer beside him.

    "Hi" the staff officer saluted and quickly obeyed.

    "Ichito-kun, are you really going to continue launching a large-scale attack?" Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi and Major General Saburo Sakata, chief of staff of the Ninth Division, quickly caught up and asked urgently.

    "Yes," Ichihebei said coldly with a vengeful glint in his eyes, "Tsukamoto-kun, do you think I'm joking?"

    "This" Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi hesitated for a moment, but still advised: "Ichito-kun, you have to think twice before you act. The 19th Regiment is not in any danger for the time being. It is better to wait until General Nogi arrives before making a decision."

    Ichitobei shook his head secretly: Why is this guy still as short-sighted as before and unable to see the enemy's weaknesses?

    In his heart, he despised Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi. Ichibei asked seriously: "Tsukamoto-san, nearly half of our troops were within the enemy's artillery range just now. If you have so many artillery pieces,  What would you do if you saw so many enemy troops gathering together?"

    "It's not enough to attack his Ichitou-kun"

    After all, Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi was the commander of the Japanese division with great military exploits. "Is it necessary to ask?" and "Is it useful?" were not uttered yet.??, I suddenly woke up.

    Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi said seductively: "Ichito-kun, under such a favorable situation, the enemy's artillery troops did not seize the opportunity to blast the infantry gathered together by our army. Could it be that they are just like us?  Lack of shells?"

    After a pause, Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi showed admiration, and said excitedly: "You have been holding back against the enemy, and you dropped the ball at the critical moment. It must be because of the lack of artillery shells, Ichito-kun. You are worthy of being the most scheming person in our army."  Division commander"

    "Yoshi" was praised by Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi. Ichitobei showed a slightly proud look and said happily: "The enemy's artillery shells must have been bought, and there are not many left. To achieve such a big result, they must think that I  The army will not launch an attack in a short period of time. I just want to launch a full-scale attack when they lose their vigilance and open a breakthrough in the enemy's positions."

    Tsukamoto Katsuyoshi and others were more and more impressed, and then they understood why General Nogi Nogi Nogi valued Ichibei so much and always obeyed Ichibei's words.

    Saburo Sakata, Chief of Staff of the Ninth Division of "Yoshi" praised: "Your Excellency the division commander's strategy is so clever. After all, the enemy has never experienced a real big battle or a fierce battle. I believe that as long as our army is in the enemy's defensive area,  If a breakthrough is opened, the enemy will panic and give our army an opportunity to take advantage of it."

    When Ichitobei returned to the headquarters to hold a combat meeting and prepared to launch a full-scale attack, the guard troops throughout Shentou Village cheered and were all in the excitement and joy of winning the artillery battle.

    Yes, it was the Japanese artillery fire that was ravaging our own positions all the time, which made all the Chinese and Indian troops suffocate.

    This time, when the Japanese artillery attack was at its most intense, our own artillery troops launched a powerful attack and blew up the enemy's artillery troops to pieces.

    How come such a gratifying victory won¡¯t make the officers and soldiers smile and feel proud?
