Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Chapter 692 The oriole is behind
"Captain, are we going to send the soldiers in the city to other counties?!" the Japanese Major said.

The defenders from other counties alone cannot ambush so many positions.

"Well, send it. It's enough to leave three hundred people in our county." The captain of the Jaap regiment nodded and said. The garrison in other counties only has more than a hundred soldiers. Even if the Imperial Association Army is included, there are only seven or eight hundred people. , it is still a bit difficult to ambush so many locations.

"Do you want the Imperial Alliance Army to be sent there too?!" the Japanese Major asked. There are still more than 2,000 Imperial Alliance Army members in their city.

"Send, just leave two or three hundred people from the Imperial Association Army. The rest will be sent out to cooperate with our soldiers. As long as this group of Jinsui Army dares to attack for the second time, we will destroy them in one go." The captain of the Jaap Regiment said murderously. Full.

After suffering such a big loss, he had to make those Jinsui troops pay the price, otherwise he would be sorry for the soldiers who died.

"Let the soldiers continue to guard the watchtowers. Once the enemy attacks, the ambushes will go around to the rear to surround the enemy and give them a two-sided attack!" said the Japanese captain.

This group of Jinsui troops must not have thought that he would send people to ambush far away from the watchtower. By then, this group of Jinsui troops would die.

"Let's go to the war room and pick a location for the ambush." ​​The Japanese captain stood up, and then a group of officers went to the war room.

There is a huge sand table here with small flags on it, which are the locations of the county seat and watchtowers that their team defends.

"This location is less than four miles away from the No. 6 Diaoto. Let a squadron of soldiers and a squadron of the Imperial Alliance Army ambush here. Once gunshots are heard from the tower, there is no need for orders from superiors to rush there as soon as possible. Surround the enemy." The Japanese captain began to talk about the ambush locations in various locations.

The Japanese Major on the side was also responsible for recording.

It took a lot of time to arrange the ambush location, and it was not until two o'clock in the afternoon that the Japanese team leader specified all the plans.

During this period, the Jaap regiment leader also received information on the casualties of each of the attacked watchtowers. Without exception, whether it was a watchtower or a checkpoint, all the soldiers inside were in pieces.

Although the Japanese captain had expected it, he was still very angry.

"Let's see how they can run away!" the Japanese captain was very confident.

"The commander is wise!" The Japanese Major flattered him.

"Have all the plans I mentioned been recorded?!" asked the Jaap captain.

"It has been recorded. When the time comes, people will send combat plans to each county." The Japanese Major responded quickly.

"Yes." The Jaap captain nodded with satisfaction, feeling that his decision was decisive and he would definitely be able to catch all the Jinsui Army in one fell swoop.

At this time, a Japanese captain entered the war room.

"Captain, Lieutenant Colonel, Major." The Japanese captain saluted several people.

"Hurry up and inform us of the details of the watchtower." The Japanese Major said. We still need to hear more about the situation there.

"Hi!" Captain Japanese nodded: "Captain, I feel that this group of Jinsui Army is not simple. There are many sharpshooters among them.

The windows of our watchtower are so narrow, but the enemy can kill the soldiers inside with one blow. This is still at night.

Judging from this, the enemy is very good at night fighting, probably targeting our specially trained soldiers. "

"Nani?! The enemy looked through a small window and shot our soldiers to death?!" the Japanese captain frowned.

The watchtowers they built specifically set up such small windows for better defense and reducing casualties. I didn't expect the enemy to have such a powerful sharpshooter.

"Yes, not only that, the enemy should also have sharpshooters who are specifically watching our machine gunners.

When I entered the watchtower, I saw that where the machine guns were set up, eight soldiers were dead, but the total number of bullet casings left on the ground was less than thirty.
It shows that they were shot dead soon after they opened fire. "Captain Guizi said.

"The Jinsui Army actually has so many sharpshooters?! It's impossible. The amount of bullet training their soldiers receive every month is simply not as good as ours.
Even our soldiers can't kill the person outside the window at night. How did they do it? ! "Jai Zi Major said.

If the Chinese army could train as much bullets as they did, they wouldn't suffer such a big loss in marksmanship!

"These must be elite soldiers trained by the Jinsui Army at a huge expense!" said the Japanese Lieutenant Colonel.

Only this explanation makes sense. In order to cause trouble for them, the Jinsui Army spent a lot of money to train a group of sharpshooters.

"I suspect that they didn't shoot too far away. They must have been lying in ambush nearby, using the sound of gunfire as a cover to make a sneak attack." The Japanese captain guessed.

He didn't believe that the Jinsui Army could train such powerful soldiers, so it must be what he thought.

"The captain is right, this group of Jinsui troops is very cunning, that's for sure." The Japanese Major also agreed with this statement.

"Let the soldiers behind the watchtowers guarding the watchtowers remember to pay more attention to the situation around the watchtowers and not just focus on the enemies attacking them in front!" the Japanese commander ordered.

The firepower of this group of Jinsui troops is not weak. If the machine guns in the watchtower cannot fire and there is no fire suppression, it is still easy to cause heavy casualties.

Now that they had killed so many soldiers in one night, they could not sacrifice any more, otherwise it would be difficult to explain to the brigade commander.

"Hi!" The Japanese Major nodded.

"By the way, these enemies are very insidious. They placed grenades at the door so that when our soldiers opened the door, two soldiers were killed.
Moreover, they actually placed grenades with the safety removed under the bodies of our soldiers. As soon as our people removed the bodies, the grenades exploded. Fortunately, they reacted quickly.
Otherwise, we won't even see the enemy and just crush a few more soldiers. "The Japanese captain informed them one by one of what happened in the watchtower.

"Nani?! This group of enemies actually did this?!" the Japanese Major said.

"Captain, the enemy's commander is not simple. He is powerful and insidious. If he is not eliminated as soon as possible, there will be endless troubles." Japanese Lieutenant Colonel said.

"Well! Originally I wasn't sure whether they would attack a second time, but now I'm sure." said the Japanese captain.

"What do you mean?!" Japanese Lieutenant Colonel was confused.

"They have only carried out one attack in Pucheng City before, maybe just to confuse us and make us think that they will not carry out a second attack, so they will not send troops to defend.

In this way, they will definitely carry out a second attack! A smart person would definitely do this! What a pity, he met me! "The Japanese captain said with a smile behind him.

He believed that he had understood the psychology of the opposing commander.

"The captain is wise. Although their commander is powerful, it's a pity that he is nothing compared to our captain. I'm afraid he won't think of it.
Our captain saw through their intentions and even cooperated with them to set up a trap.

As an old Chinese saying goes, when the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole follows behind, and we are the oriole. "Jai Zi Major said.

"Haha... Now I can eliminate them all in one go!" After hearing this, the Japanese captain also laughed with satisfaction.

"Let's send troops to do it tonight. Remember, we must operate secretly. I suspect that the enemy may send people to monitor our situation, so we will send troops out at night." The Japanese captain said. He felt that the enemy might have been paying close attention to the situation in the county, so he had to send troops out quietly at night to avoid alerting the enemy.

Today is only the first day. The enemy will not attack so soon. They will definitely wait for two more days to make sure there is no problem before attacking.

"Hi!" The Japanese Major nodded.

.........

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Changshun also began to plan the second attack in the temporary headquarters.

The results of other platoons last night were very good. In the next two days it will be time to continue their efforts. We must kill a few more little devils.

Just as he was thinking about things, the soldier sent to report the situation to the battalion commander came back.

"Company commander!" The soldier saluted Liu Changshun.

"All the information has been sent, what did the battalion commander say?!" Liu Changshun asked. Their battle went smoothly without any mistakes.

"The battalion commander praised us for doing a good job, but..." the soldier hesitated after speaking.

"But what?!" Liu Changshun frowned, why did this man speak so hesitantly?

"It's just that the battalion commander didn't agree with our second attack on the Japanese watchtower, saying that the Japanese might set a trap for us," the soldier said.

"The devils are setting a trap for us?! It's impossible. The devils here must know about our previous attack in Pushi.
You should think that we won't attack a second time. Liu Changshun said.

He just thought that the Japanese would think so, so he decided to launch a second attack.

"I don't know, but that's what the battalion commander ordered." The soldier said.

Liu Changshun frowned, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that the decision made by the battalion commander was right all along.

"Also, I don't know why. I felt like the battalion commander had something else to say, but he didn't say it. I don't know what the situation was." The soldier hesitated and expressed his guess.

"What do you mean?!" Liu Changshun began to think. Does the battalion commander want him to think about things by himself? !

"Company commander, what do you think the battalion commander wanted to say at that time?! Or am I overthinking?!" the soldier asked.

"No, no, no, the battalion commander must have something to say, but he didn't say it clearly. He was letting me realize it myself," Liu Changshun said.

The battalion commander had already said before that the decision to take action was entirely up to them.

"Company Commander, if the Japs really set a trap for us, then we'd better not fight. If we are really tricked by the Japs, there may be casualties," the soldier said.

Although they were powerful, if they were suddenly attacked by the Japanese from behind during the attack, there would definitely be casualties. Therefore, he felt that after they were sure to set a trap for them, it would be better not to continue fighting.

"Yes." Liu Changshun nodded. He also understood the truth. He was about to ask people to notify the platoons to stop the second attack, but suddenly he thought of something.

So what if the Japanese set a trap for them? Since they set a trap for them, why can't they in turn set a trap for the Japanese? !
Since the Japanese wanted to ambush them, the location of the ambush would definitely not be too far from the watchtower. All they had to do was find the location where the Japanese ambush, and then determine the enemy's approach route and then find a suitable ambush location for counter-burial.

"Haha, that's it." Liu Changshun suddenly smiled. What the battalion commander wanted to say later should be what he was thinking now.

The battalion commander was testing whether he could think of so many things.

Fortunately, he thought quickly, otherwise, he might have disappointed the battalion commander.

"Company Commander, why is this?!" The soldier was a little confused when he saw this. The company commander was frowning just now, why did he become happy so quickly.

"I know what the battalion commander wants to say." Liu Changshun said.

"Ah?! What did the battalion commander want to say?!" the soldier asked, why didn't he think of it?

"Don't ask so many questions. Now send communications troops to call back some platoon leaders. By the way, ask them to bring back the soldiers as well!" Liu Changshun immediately ordered.

"Yes!" The soldier nodded and quickly sent a communications soldier to call someone.

At 6:30 in the evening, two platoon commanders and a deputy company commander from the first company came back with their men.

"Company commander, why did you suddenly let us come back? Didn't you say you were attacking the Japanese?" the deputy company commander asked as soon as he entered the headquarters.

Last night he led people to the Japanese checkpoint and annihilated more than a dozen Japanese and more than 30 puppet troops.

"Don't be anxious. I have my reasons for asking you guys to come back. Please sit down first." Liu Changshun said.

After a few people sat down, Liu Changshun spoke.

"The battle report from our side has been reported to the battalion commander. The battalion commander praised us for doing well." Liu Changshun first said what Li Jin praised them.

"That's why we have followed the battalion commander for so long." The deputy company commander smiled, and the other platoon commanders were also very happy.

"However, the battalion commander did not agree with our actions when he learned that we were going to attack a second time." Liu Changshun said with a serious expression.

"Ah?! Why?! We only hit the Japs once. The Japs certainly wouldn't have thought that we would be so bold and attack a second time," said the third platoon leader.

"What if the devils thought of it?! And not only did they think of it, but they also set a trap for us?! During our second attack, what if the devils ambushed us and took the opportunity to surround us?! What would be the consequences?! Liu Changshun asked back.

"This..." Several people were speechless for a while.

"The consequence is that we were attacked and suffered casualties. It was easy for us to break out, but where were the dead soldiers?! Things that could have been avoided were not avoided.

Many times, we must think more and not be blindly confident. No matter whether the enemy thinks of it or not, we should be prepared. This is what the battalion commander has always taught us.

Don't forget all the things he taught you as soon as you leave the battalion commander. If others find out, you will think that the battalion commander doesn't know how to lead troops. "Liu Changshun started preaching. In fact, he had done the same before.

Without the battalion commander, he felt that he was very good. His temporary success made him somewhat blindly confident, and he completely forgot what the battalion commander had taught him before.

Fortunately, the battalion commander reminded him.
