Chapter 367: A Major Operation Tonight
"The turtle-shell formation the Japanese Army has set up this time!"
"Even with artillery strikes, we cannot hit the Japanese Army's vital points!"
"Moreover, the places where the Japanese Army has set up camp have also been specially calculated."
"They have carried out carpet bombing on artillery positions that could be hit by our Type 41 Mountain Guns and Type 92 Infantry Guns."
"Now, even if we pull up our artillery and set up artillery positions, the Japanese Army's camp..."
"... has built defensive fortifications, so our artillery fire cannot hit the devils' vital points."
"Instead, it would just be a waste of shells!"
"We will stick to the old method: pre-set a few ambush locations, bury landmines, and strike the Japanese Army's pursuing troops."
Jin Jizhong looked at Chen Qian and fished a Cigarette out of his pocket.
Yu Hua took the operational plan from Wang Mingzhang's hands and looked it over for a while.
Wang Mingzhang also sighed, "It seems!"
"If we alert the Japanese Army, we will just fight on the periphery and then withdraw."
Wang Mingzhang nodded: "Understood, understood!"
Everyone also began to use their own methods, with things like Cigarettes, Beef Canned Food, and Japanese Army sabers.
Wang Mingzhang felt like a cat was clawing at his heart; he was a bit unwilling!
"I will now announce our mission."
"Right now, the Pingjin Area Army is extremely cautious about our Sichuan Army!"
"The Second Regiment commander will lead the troops to the pre-set Number One Position to intercept the Japanese Army's pursuing troops."
We must teach the Segaya Detachment a lesson so they know that Teng County is not a place you can just come to whenever you want.
"Tonight, just like before in the Second War Zone, we will conduct a Night Raid on the devils."
They all promised Chen Qian that they would definitely honor him, the old man, in the future.
The Reinforced Battalion could be put to use; Liu Dashuai saw that the Reinforced Battalion directly under the Division had such good results.
Therefore, among the several Regimental Commanders and Battalion Commanders of the 122nd Division, Yu Hua was only slightly more familiar with Jin Jizhong.
"Even if not one in a hundred, they are at least one in ten."
At this moment!
We must not let these four scoundrels go find Wang Mingzhang, otherwise this Division Headquarters will be as noisy as a vegetable market.
"Our Sichuan Army hurt the devils badly in the Second War Zone and the Seventh War Zone."
Especially Jin Jizhong, that old fellow, who kept winking at Yu Hua.
"Following our old methods from before, we must prepare landmines and Explosives for the devils."
When Yu Hua was temporarily assigned to the 122nd Division, he was in the Jin Jizhong Regiment.
Yu Hua went outside to announce the operational plan for tonight.
There were even some who had received advanced training at the Whampoa Military Academy!
Everyone was eager and ready to draft a perfect operational plan.
"The Third Regiment and Fourth Regiment will respectively intercept the Japanese Army's pursuing troops at the number two and number three pre-set positions."
Plus!
The 122nd Division had been through several major battles.
The commanders of the Guard Battalion, Machine Gun and Artillery Battalion, and Artillery Battalion, which were directly under the Division Headquarters, also ran to the Division Headquarters.
The Silencer for the Mauser 98K Rifle produced by the Sichuan Arsenal.
They all knew that this group of people had come to fish for a fight.
"At the same time, be sure to be careful when scouting the sentry posts."
"Remember, fire one shot and leave, heading toward our pre-set positions."
"We can give it a try!"
Previously, the Mauser 98K Rifles produced by the Sichuan Arsenal were equipped with Silencers.
Jin Jizhong and the others saw Yu Hua and Wang Mingzhang arrive, and everyone knew that the combat mission had certainly been handed down.
The other three Regimental Commanders saw Jin Jizhong playing with sugar-coated bullets.
Yu Hua pretended not to see Jin Jizhong's winking.
At the same time!
Then he made adjustments to some of the content inside.
Tonight, a Night Raid on the Segaya Detachment!
"The remaining two battalions of the Jin Jizhong Regiment will prepare to cover the withdrawing troops."
Chen Qian happily accepted the benefits, but he didn't mention a word about the fighting tonight.
Subsequently!
These five models were also the naming conventions for Silencers produced in Germany at the time.
"Since you are all here!"
When Yu Hua was in the Seventh War Zone.
"We will conduct a Night Raid tonight!"
When Yu Hua said this, the battalion commanders who received the mission were also very happy.
Personnel changes had occurred, and the Regimental Commanders and Battalion Commanders Yu Hua knew were even fewer.
The Mauser 98K Rifle, capable of being fitted with a Silencer and a scope, was a pretty good rifle in World War II.
Looking at the map!
The location where the Japanese Army has set up camp; these are over twenty thousand Japanese soldiers.
Now!
"Jin Jizhong Regiment 1st Battalion and the Machine Gun and Artillery Battalion, withdraw to the number three preset position."
"The Division Headquarters Reinforced Battalion, Guard Battalion, Jin Jizhong Regiment 1st Battalion, and the Machine Gun and Artillery Battalion, split into three groups to go and scout the Japanese Army positions."
"These silencers and scopes really are damn good things."
A group of Staff Officers, upon learning they were going to fight today, were all very excited.
Among these Staff Officers, quite a few were student soldiers who had enlisted.
To suit the occasion, Yu Hua simply adopted the original names and did not change them.
In any case, Yu Hua would not let the Japanese Army sleep well.
Once everyone met up, they all started tormenting Chen Qian.
"If the Japanese Army is not alerted, provide cover for the Machine Gun and Artillery Battalion to break through and utilize the mortars and grenade launchers."
"First, use the silencers to take out the Japanese Army's sentry posts."
It is unknown which Staff Officer leaked the news that the Division Headquarters was drafting an operational plan.
It spread to the 22nd Group Army.
The four Regimental Commanders of the 122nd Division all scrambled toward the Division Headquarters.
"With this stuff, tonight, the little Japanese sentries can only admit defeat!"
There were five models in total, and Yu Hua still named them L23, L25, L26, L27, and L53.
"Deputy Division Commander, this is the cigarette I captured from the Japanese Army last time."
"The taste is damn good, you try it!"
Tonight!
"Brother Yu!"
Yu Hua saw that several key officers of the 122nd Division had all gathered at the Division Headquarters.
"Bomb the Japanese for me."
"Take a look at the operational plan drafted by several Staff Officers."
"Regarding our Group Army, didn't you suggest that each Division train a Reinforced Battalion?"
"See if we can provoke the anger of the Japanese Army and make that old Japanese soldier Segu Qi send troops to pursue."
Chen Qian was playing tai chi outside!
"When withdrawing, the Reinforced Battalion will withdraw to the number one preset position, and the Guard Battalion will withdraw to the Number Two Position."
Now!
The four of them were as anxious as if they were getting married for the first time!
Chen Qian, as Deputy Division Commander!
Seeing the four Regimental Commanders arrive, he also blocked them in front of Wang Mingzhang.
Yu Hua, on the side, heard this and pondered for a moment.
"Brother!"
Under the Chuan Army, there are seven Group Armies, and each Division directly administers one Reinforced Battalion.
"Bring the 82mm mortars and grenade launchers to poke the Japanese in the ass."
"I think it's feasible."
"Remember to let the brothers of the Reinforced Battalion carry Mauser 98K Rifles equipped with scopes and silencers."
Such a large mass, if we don't go and raid them tonight to give the Japanese a taste of our power.
Inside the Division Headquarters, Wang Mingzhang looked at Yu Hua: "Brother Yu."
Each Division of the 23rd Group Army also trained a Reinforced Battalion, and furthermore, for tasks like sneak attacks or infiltration and assault missions.
Yu Hua began to summon the Staff Officers of the 122nd Division to let them draft the operational plan.
After Yu Hua finished speaking!
After adjusting it!
It still lacked some refinement!
Within the Chuan Army units, only a small number of Sniper soldiers were equipped with silencers.
"The soldiers of this Reinforced Battalion are all carefully selected, regardless of their marksmanship or combat ability."
"Can we split this Reinforced Battalion into small squads?"
Immediately!
Just like that!
Yu Hua finished issuing the combat mission for the 122nd Division!
For a moment, inside the Division Headquarters, several Regimental Commanders and Battalion Commanders were all beaming with joy.
Tonight's raid is quite a major operation!
Having just argued until their faces were red and their necks were thick, wasn't that all for nothing!
