ALL NOVEL Chapter 10
In Hiraizumi, the Japanese 14th Mixed Brigade was shocked when they received the news that the 25th Infantry Battalion had been completely wiped out.
The brigade commander, Major General Hattori Heijiro, looked extremely unhappy.
"Bakayaluo, what a bunch of good-for-nothings.
A battalion of more than a thousand people was wiped out by the Chinese. It's a shame."
You know, even from September 18th to now, there has never been a case of an entire battalion being wiped out.
Now their 14th Mixed Brigade is probably going to be famous throughout the Kwantung Army.
But he didn't really want to be famous.
"Chengde, Chinese.....Gather all the troops and attack Chengde."
Hattori Heijiro gritted his teeth and said.
This time, no matter what, we must annihilate these Chinese people, take Chengde, and wipe out the shame.
But it takes time for them to assemble.
After all, the troops of the 14th Mixed Brigade are scattered in many places.
It took more than a day to assemble the troops.
After the assembly was completed,
Major General Hattori Heijiro set off with three infantry battalions, two field artillery squadrons and affiliated troops.
The total force is more than 5,000 people.
In addition, the Kwantung Army Aviation also sent dozens of fighter planes to support him in the battle.
As soon as the enemy in the Hiraizumi direction moved, Jiang Fan received the news. Information.
Here we have to talk about the police dog.
It is simply one of the best scouts.
Who would have known that a dog lying on the side of the road would be the eyes of the Red Alert base. In the past two days, Jiang Fan has almost figured out the situation of Pingquan.
During these two days, he has been constantly increasing his troops.
And the number of mining vehicles has increased to 15.
That means he can earn 45,000 funds every day.
The number of barracks has also increased to 10, 3 armored factories, 4 logistics centers, and 12 power plants.
These are the basis for his current increase in troops.
If the 10 barracks are fully recruiting conscripts, they can recruit 600 people every day, which is half the strength of a reinforced battalion.
30,000 funds for 600 conscripts and more than 10,000 funds for various equipment, basically all the funds are consumed.
However, he is also working hard to increase the daily funds to 100,000.
But there is a downside to this.
I am afraid that Chengde’s resources will not last too long.
Because adding mining vehicles means faster consumption.
Under Jiang Fan’s violent army, a reinforced infantry battalion and a heavy artillery battalion were added again in the past two days.
In the organization, the reinforced infantry battalion is composed of three infantry companies, an artillery company, a fire support company, a tank company and a logistics support company.
In total The force is about 1,000 people.
The heavy artillery battalion is composed of three artillery companies, a transport company, and a logistics support company.
Each of the three artillery companies is equipped with 6 FH-18 32-caliber 150mm howitzers, for a total of 18 guns.
This FH-18 150mm howitzer.
The total weight is 6.3 tons, the rate of fire is 4 rounds per minute, and the maximum range is 15 kilometers.
Among the howitzers of the same level, this heavy artillery is also considered to be the top one.
Two reinforced battalions, one heavy artillery battalion, and one anti-aircraft artillery battalion, with a total force of about 3,000 people.
This is all the troops that Jiang Fan currently has.
"Xie Ning, what do you think about the Japanese in Pingquan?"
Xie Ning looked at the map of Chengde, frowning.
"I wonder what effect the commander wants to achieve?"
Faced with Xie Ning's question, Jiang Fan smiled.
"Of course, we will wipe them out completely."
It's not that he looked down on the Japanese.
It is true that the individual quality of the Japanese soldiers is very high and their combat effectiveness is very strong.
But their equipment is at an absolute disadvantage, which is also an indisputable fact.
With the strength of the troops being almost the same,
Jiang Fan felt that it would not be difficult to wipe out this Japanese army.
Xie Ning nodded and said,"Continue to set up the position in Erdaogou. It only takes a battalion of troops to defend it.
Use the advantage of defense to consume the Japanese army's manpower.
When it is consumed to a certain extent, abandon Erdaogou and evacuate Chengde for defense.
After luring the Japanese in, we will use the advantage of armor to eliminate the enemy."
Jiang Fan nodded with satisfaction about his plan.
"Okay, let's do as you said. It's a bit difficult for us to completely wipe out this brigade of Japs with our current strength.
It seems that we need to continue to strengthen and build another trump card."
At this moment, Jiang Fan had a new idea in his mind.
The Erdaogou position was busy again.
The engineering troops were digging, reinforcing the positions, and laying barbed wire, adding many firepower points again.
A solid position is constantly being improved.
The Japanese troops in the direction of Pingquan were also approaching rapidly.
However, the advancement of the 14th Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army was not smooth along the way.
Xie Ning used the same trick again and sent out several small troops to harass the Japanese army and slow down their advance.
Although the time gained was not much, it was almost a day.
Two days passed again, and the main force of the 14th Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army finally arrived at Erdaogou.
Looking at the group of positions in front, Hattori Heijiro smiled coldly.
"Let the Imperial Warriors destroy their positions and take Chengde."
The Japanese army did not stop and immediately organized troops to launch a fierce attack.
A major battle broke out again in Erdaogou.
However, this time they faced more than 5,000 troops from the 14th Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army.
If it were on the battlefield inside the pass, it would be difficult to defend without more than 30,000 troops.
