Chapter 416 Winning the bid

Standing in the middle of the yard with a swagger, Gao Pinbiao had a thousand and ten thousand reasons to be rampant. Because he had this strength, the chief of staff and adjutants on the side were very anxious.

"General, the **Suihua defenders were attacked by four hours of high-intensity during the day by our 27th Brigade, and they can launch raids at night, which shows that their troops are not very strong."

Gao Pinbiao looked cold and said stubbornly: "My judgment is not wrong. The opponent's military strength is not good enough. I want to use bluff to induce our army. Aoki Jun, don't be fooled."

"I've been taught. But the general..."

Aoki Heisabashiro's tone was dry, not as if he was convinced by Gao Pinbiao. Of course, as the chief, Gao Pinbiao had no obligation to explain.

The two of them stood in the yard without saying a word, thinking about their own thoughts.

What Gao Pinbiao thought about was related to the war. Even if Suihua was fought tomorrow, the casualties of the 27th Brigade would be more than 2,000. If Tieli attacks again and encounters defenders like Suihua, it would definitely be a tragedy for Gao Pinbiao.

Even if the railway line between Suihua and Bei'an can be opened, the 27th Brigade will add up to the casualties along the way, and it is hard to say whether the troops still have combat effectiveness. How can they threaten the 1st Column with strong combat effectiveness?

Consumption!

The battle that is completely consuming is the battle method that the Japanese army is most worried about and fears the most.

Although the Zeng Yiyang tribe in the northeast also used casualties similar to those of the Japanese army, and finally lost an important strategic center, what was the result?

Zeng Yiyang could pull out an army of 50,000 from more than 10,000 people within a year.

After many wars, there must be at least 20,000 to 30,000 casualties, but Zeng Yiyang's troops are fighting more and more. The enthusiasm of the local people in Northeast China to join the army is unprecedentedly high. Compared with Japan? The entire empire has only formed seven new divisions in a year.

Moreover, his combat effectiveness is still very weak, so he can only be used as a garrison force.

It won’t take long before Zeng Yiyang could use casualties to consume the Kwantung Army without any temper. It was like an elephant turning into a mouse, and no one could stand this gap. Gao Pinbiao was a soldier, a soldier with a very serious national plot. Such a person saw the enemy’s strength day by day, and he could imagine his mood.

Gao Pinbiao wanted to fight this battle from the bottom of his heart, because it was a battle that had a profound impact on the entire Northeast and even the Far East.

After decades of being in the army, Gao Pinbiao understood the principle of sailing against the current, and if he did not advance, he would retreat.

It doesn't matter if the brigade headquarters evacuated the city, but the next day, the 27th Brigade wanted to take Suihua in one go, which means that at the critical moment of the battle, he could not retreat. It was like a military flag of an army, and he could never fall.

"General, Lieutenant Yokoyama reported that a ** assault squad had approached the location of the Brigade Command. The Lieutenant asked His Excellency General to transfer immediately."

Chief of Staff Aoki Nakasa nodded and said, "You go down first."

The guards' words saved the Chief of Staff Aoki, but this kind of rescue was more like irony.

Aoki Nakasa was worried about the artillery in the hands of the ** troops, and Suihua had a place that was as big as a general attacker. No matter what type of artillery it was, once the brigade command center was discovered, the mentality of not trying luck in the south was not revealed. For Gu Jingsheng, this mentality was like encountering a lottery draw on the street. It would not cost much to buy a lottery ticket, but what if he won?

This fun is a big deal.

In fact, the mortar platoon of the 22nd Regiment was indeed able to attack any area of ​​the city, but because the advantages of the mortar were not used in street fighting, this has never been useful.

The Japanese army regards attack as the soul of its army's combat, but once the attack is blocked, it becomes a positional war or a war of attrition, and the Japanese army does not really use too many ways.

Especially in Suihua, Gao Pinbiao could order the artillery corps to blow up Suihua, but he couldn't speak up and let the air force wander around the 27th Brigade around the clock, because the battlefield was too small, and there were only so many defenders in the general offensive.

Originally, Gao Pinbiao was struggling with issues such as morale, but now, he had no need to consider these. A small team with unknown numbers and small attacks in the night protection area sounded very familiar. Isn’t it a common tactic used by the Japanese army? Now, this unit is hundreds of meters away from the command center. Once the brigade command center is removed, for Gao Pinbiao, regardless of whether it is life or death in the end, his military career will end early.

"General, you can't hesitate anymore!"

"I didn't hesitate, I have been holding on to the honor of an emperor!"

Gao Pinbiao's tone was still very hard, but there was some suspicion in his expression, but soon his mentality changed. He understood that this was just a chance, and there was a reinforced machine gun squadron guarding the streets. Not to mention that the Chinese team was attacking, even if it was him who attacked, the chance was not too great.

"The brigade command is too close to the front of the battlefield. Not only Suihua, but also in Lanxi, the brigade has a gang blocking force, so the opportunity may not necessarily be realized in Suihua."

Aoki Nakasa made a bitter explanation, but Gao Pinbiao obviously became interested in the content of his advice and asked: "Beyond Suihua..."

Gao Pinbiao couldn't help but nod, as if this made sense.

For the 27th Brigade, it is a matter of time to win the battle in Suihua. But if the ** reinforcements arrive on the battlefield after Suihua breaks the city, the result will be very difficult to say.

"That's right, once our troops left in Lanxi are attacked, the logistics of the brigade will not be guaranteed. Since the battle, I have been studying Zeng Yiyang's tactics. He is the main force of opportunity. As long as he has opportunities on the battlefield, he will not let it go no matter how great the benefits are. If, I just said that if Zeng Yiyang found that the 27th Brigade was easier to deal with than the 12th Division, I suspect that the three columns commanded by Chen Guang would suddenly appear around Suihua..."

Aoki Nakasa's idea was a bit pessimistic, but in fact he came up with this idea overnight.

The more difficult the battle in Suihua was, he thought the greater the possibility. The reason was very simple. The facts of many battles proved that the powerful attack troops that had always been highly anticipated were blocked. In the short term, if they lost the advantage of their campaign operations due to excessive losses, they would inevitably fall into trouble or even desperate situations.

Perhaps, Gao Pinbiao thought Aoki Nakasa's words made some sense, but he did not pay much attention to them.

First of all, Gao Pinbiao was very curious about what the defenders of Suihua would make this raid at night?

Also, whether his brigade escort forces can annihilate this small force.

After all, according to the situation on the battlefield, a brigade of reinforcements from the barracks had been blocked near the barracks. This is the most critical factor in the entire battlefield. The Suihua defenders must have seen this and will find that this is an opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Suddenly, the Japanese heavy machine gun position not far away suddenly started to attack.

The sound of gunfire like a bean-burning gun covered the surroundings. When the gunshots in the distance were heard, only the sounds of the 92 heavy machine guns were close to each other.

No need to say anything more, the opponent accidentally made a good show of attacking Huanglong.

But Gao Pinbiao was unwilling to applaud the Chinese team because he was the biggest loser of this battle. Perhaps Major Tanimura would be responsible for the failure on the battlefield, but as the highest-level Japanese commander on the Suihua battlefield, Gao Pinbiao's evaluation of the situation has already had problems.

Especially when the attack is unfavorable, we insist on using superior forces to attack.

Of course, these are all correct, but the biggest problem is that once the 27th Brigade is in Suihua for one day, two days, or even three days... the battle still has no result, and it is not only Gao Pinbiao's nerves that affect it. Kita Sei will not be able to sit still when the time comes.

At that time, Gao Pinbiao would face several pressures, from the ** army in Suihua.

The ** reinforcements in the rear were also the anger of Seiichi Kita.

All this is a responsibility that he, a major general, cannot bear, because his opponent is not the Soviet army, but an inconspicuous regiment-level small unit in Zeng Yiyang's army. The Kwantung Army cannot tolerate that it cannot win if it has absolute strength on the battlefield. This is related to the morale of the entire hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army, and even Japan will doubt the combat strength of the Kwantung Army.

Gao Pinbiao's chief of staff gave him advice to attract his opponent to the edge of the city wall and speak with artillery.

For Gao Pinbiao, he refused to accept the 22nd Regiment stationed in Suihua, evacuated the battlefield due to casualties. He did not accept it, nor could he accept it.

Gao Pinbiao seemed very firm at this point and smiled and said, "Aoki Jun, the bait has been hooked. This should be the reserve force that the opponent has not used, and it is the reserve force with the strongest combat effectiveness."

"The general means..."

"With the most elite guard squadron, you may not have to wait until dawn and the battle will end." The battle that broke out at close range was not a threat to Gao Pinbiao, but rather a face-to-face duel.

As the deputy, Aoki Nakasa didn't say much.

The tactics he suggested were too conservative and took longer in time, but in his opinion it was the safest tactic. Because the artillery advantage of the 27th Brigade could cause fewer casualties in infantry.

Suddenly, continuous explosions rang outside the courtyard wall.

The sound should be the sound of the grenade explosion. The sound is very loud and very close.

At this time, even Gao Pinbiao's face changed, which means that the opponent's small troops had attacked less than 100 meters away from the brigade command post. If the opponent had artillery... the consequences were unimaginable...

"Immediately order all personnel of the brigade headquarters to pick up their weapons and prepare for battle."

Gao Pinbiao didn't dare to order evacuation at all, because once he met his opponent outside the yard, it would be an encounter that no one dared to conclude. The result of the battle is likely to be that the brigade personnel who did not have much combat effectiveness will become the target of the massacre.

But Gao Pinbiao's reaction was already a little late.

The tallest roof of the yard was first attacked by grenades, and the explosion blew up the tiles of the entire roof and tilted down the eaves like sand.

In the chaos, Gao Pinbiao groaned and fell to the ground...
