Chapter 659: Tempting Victory
Digging for gold!
This rather strange place name made the Army Major General stunned again.
Then there is Yixi. The so-called pit, as the name suggests, is a valley, which is most suitable for the terrain used by the "heartless cannon" that Tang Dao just demonstrated.
But obviously, he thought wrong.
This pit is not that pit.
"Battal Commander, we have sent people to look at the terrain here. This is a flood discharge valley. After years of torrents, the valley bottom is wider and the terrain is not so steep. If we ambush on the mountains, submachine guns and shell guns will The range is not enough, but the Japanese Type 38 rifle can play a role, and it was also used as a backup at that time." Guo Shouzhi looked at the place name and asked subconsciously.
The Army Major General grinned slightly, but did not immediately provide any advice. Instead, he turned his gaze to Tang Dao to see how he would answer.
Although he didn't have much dealings with Tang Dao, this kid was definitely a smart man and a ruthless man. Whether he persuaded Master Rao to sacrifice his life to help him buy a day and a night, or he personally led the death squad at night with the dignity of a battalion commander. The attack on the Japanese artillery positions proved that he had his own uniqueness in both strategy and tactics.
At least, he would never choose an ambush on a terrain that creates obstacles for himself but allows the Japanese army to play a role.
"Lao Guo is right. From a pure ambush perspective, the gold digging pit is indeed not the best place." Tang Dao nodded.
“But we can't just think about the problem from our own perspective, you also have to think from the perspective of the Japanese commander.
For example, we choose a place with a narrow terrain. The width between the two mountains is no more than 50 meters. When people walk in it, they can't see the sky when they look up. It's eerie and creepy. Lao Zhuang, let me ask you, are you a Japanese commander? There is a military emergency, what would you do? "
"Then of course I have to send out enough scouts. Only when it is safe will I order the army to enter. I will even choose a new marching route... because I am here to get promoted and make a fortune, and I will never die in the wild mountains. ." Zhuang Shisan replied without hesitation.
Tang Dao spread his hands and said, "That's it! If we hadn't fought that battle with the Japanese army, it might have been better. The Japanese army was proud and arrogant. They sent out scouts to check and leave without danger. However, after the battle at Mouse Mountain, we were If the beating hurts, they will definitely put away the invincible tactics of the Imperial Japanese Army.
I cannot place all my hopes of victory on the enemy's stupidity. On the contrary, I believe you all know how difficult the Japanese are. "
Therefore, I thought about it for a long time and finally decided to choose the ambush site here. If the Japanese army wants to outflank our army, this is the only way for them to go. Moreover, this terrain will not scare the Japanese too much, and they will not be able to enter it. Too much psychological burden. "
Tang Dao was so confident that he was almost proud, "This is called attacking them unprepared. The more they think I won't fight here, the more I will beat them here."
That is, seeing how confident Tang Dao is, the Army Major General still doesn't quite understand what means he will use to attract the Japanese army to attack.
You must know that the Japanese army is not a chess piece on the chessboard and can be moved around at will.
However, before he could ask, Tang Dao turned his gaze to him, grinning and showing his white teeth: "Do you want to know, Commander Tong, how many explosive packets I have prepared for the Japanese army?
“How many explosive packs have you prepared?” The Army Major General was still a little curious after all.
Lieutenant General Rao brought his military exploits to the Group Army Headquarters, and then a telegram from the Group Army Headquarters found the general in charge of guarding Jinling. He strictly ordered the infantry brigade stationed in Wuhu to provide supplies, and only then did he collect 500 kilograms of explosives for Tang Dao, and then this The next time he brought the baggage troops over.
If you work overnight to make explosive bags, you can make nearly 100 5 kilogram explosive bags. How about the quality? I can't guarantee it.
"Hey! Chief of Staff Zhuang has the most say in terms of military supplies. Lao Zhuang, tell me how many explosive packs we still have." Tang Dao pointed at Zhuang Shisan with his finger.
"Reporting to Chief Tong, after counting, our department currently has 76 5kg explosive bags, 25 8kg explosive bags, and 6 10kg explosive bags. If you add the 500kg of explosives that Chief Tong sent today, it will be counted. Loss, our department can still produce 96 5-kilogram explosive bags, or 48 10-kilogram explosive bags." Zhuang Shisan, a data expert, directly accurate the data to single digits.
I don't know if I don't tell you, but I was really shocked when I heard it.
The Army Major General couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Before leaving, the 145th Division handed over all the explosive packs, mines and grenades to Tang Dao, but as the brigade commander, why didn't he know that the 145th Division actually almost ran out of ammunition and food in the first battle at Jiepai Village.
Not to mention that the explosive packs given to Tang Dao were only a dozen or twenty, and even the hand grenades were actually only a mere 2,000. Among the 2,000 people under Tang Dao's current command, there was only one in each hand.
How come Tang Dao's independent camp still has so many such horrible things?
Of course he didn't know how much 'savings' a poor person would have.
Tang Dao has never been in the habit of using up all his trump cards. He would always choose to keep one hand at a time. Even if the first day of the Mouse Mountain Blockade was so brutal, he would not use a big bomb like an explosive pack as a last resort. It is said that all three highlands are given to one guy to stud. When he divided his forces with the 67th Army and the 43rd Army, these two armies were going to evacuate to Jiangbei for repairs anyway, so how could he say that the lion could not open its mouth?
In addition to submachine guns, shell guns, machine guns and other firearms and ammunition, the most supplies he asked Comrade Lao Wu for were explosives.
Others don't know about "heartless cannons", but Tang Dao, a little butterfly in the future, has always had a dream of "thousands of cannons flying together".
Although he also knows that this dream can only be achieved in the next few decades by the Chinese Army that firmly implements the artillery doctrine. In this era, only American cowboys, Germans and fighting nations have this strength.
But there is still a chance of finding an oil barrel!
Comrade Lao Wu doesn't know that there is a black technology in the world that can throw explosive packets flying all over the sky, not to mention throwing them more than a hundred meters, otherwise he would not have lost all the explosive stocks of the 67th Army to Tang Dao.
In other words, the explosive pack in Tang Dao's hand at this time was the entire explosive reserve of an army.
Can that not be too much?
“My dear, the total amount of explosives must not be 1,000 kilograms?” The Army Major General carefully calculated and took a breath.
"It's 1,120 kilograms of explosives! After accounting for the losses." Zhuang Shisan did not care at all about the fact that the Army Major General was not good at mathematics, and corrected it with the most accurate figures.
Lei Xiong and Guo Shouzhi couldn't help but roll their eyes. This guy started to show off again, and he didn't save any face for the Sichuan Army Major General.
"So few? Didn't I remember that there was a batch of explosives that I strictly ordered that no one could use without my approval? How many more are there?" Tang Dao was obviously not satisfied with the figure of less than 200 explosive packs. .
“Oh, if you add that batch of explosives, there will still be 200 five-kilogram explosive packets, but the battalion commander must personally sign and approve them!” Zhuang Shisan replied.
"Use, use it all. After fighting this battle, we have nothing to use for the time being. Why do we still have so many supplies?" Tang Dao said.
The experienced Army Major General almost felt weak in the legs. Good guy, one thousand kilograms turned into more than two thousand in a blink of an eye. If this was done according to Tang Dao's idea, the little devil would not be able to do it without crying.
Two thousand kilograms of explosives! If converted into 6.5 kilogram shells, that's 300 shells. After such a round, just thinking about the result is very satisfying!
Maybe Lei Xiong and Guo Shouzhi were shocked by the fact that there were so many explosives in their independent camp, and they were both a little silent for a while.
It seemed a little too quiet on the ridge.
Until the Army Major General took the initiative to speak: "Ahem, this time I led the division's guard company and baggage company to **** the supplies. Since it coincides with this battle, how can I stand by and watch, look at Battalion Commander Tang"
This of course means to divide the battle merits.
Tang Dao grinned slightly.
Seeing Tang Dao's behavior, the Army Major General's face turned red under the moonlight and he hurriedly explained: "Our division's security company is well-equipped and is composed of veterans of more than three years. It will never hold back your division."
We can't blame the Army Major General for being cautious. The prospect depicted by Tang Dao is really too tempting. No matter how many Japanese troops can be annihilated, with this 'flying thunder cannon' and so many explosive packets, this battle will be stable. win.
Although the 145th Division fought tenaciously in the Battle of Jiepai, no matter what, it still failed to resist the Japanese advance. At most, it delayed the Japanese army for a few days. If Tang Dao had not led the independent battalion to defeat the Kunisaki detachment in the battle of Mouse Mountain, After a hard blow, the 145th Division did not dare to ask for supplies from the Army Headquarters.
Then the merits of this battle cannot be missed. Even if the 145th Division only has one guard company and one baggage company participating in the battle, it is still participating in the battle, right?
"Chief Tong is too humble. Sir Tong, you want to participate in this battle, but Tang Dao is asking for it." Tang Dao smiled happily.
A set of white teeth that were almost dazzling in the moonlight.
The Army Major General saw Tang Dao smiling so brightly. While he was equally happy, he seemed to have figured something out.
Made, it seems that you have been fooled by this guy.
It seems that this guy gave the boss a piece of cake and was waiting for him to jump on him.
With the addition of his 400 men, isn't it more certain than 2,000 men?
