Chapter 831: Plan Battle

"There is no way to take risks in a war. These risks are within the controllable range. Even if you encounter an unfavorable situation, it is nothing more than a failure to encircle..."

Xiong Changling explained.

After demonstration, many staff officers agreed with this battle plan.

The main reason is that they all have confidence in their own troops.

A few days later, the Huajun began to move.

A regiment set out from the north, bypassed Chiyoda and captured Mukaihara.

Another brigade, escorted by the navy, landed from Anpu and captured Saijo.

The time given to them by the headquarters is three days. After three days, whether they succeed or not, the main force will launch a general attack on the enemy.

If the intercepting forces did not complete their respective tasks within three days, the plan for the encirclement would be declared a failure, and the enemy could retreat to the rear through those two places.

This is the downside of planned operations.

Each unit must complete the plan on time in order to achieve the desired cooperation.

For example, according to the plan, the forward troops need to know the firepower on the road at a certain time, then the person in charge of performing the task must complete it at this time.

Because other troops are charging according to plan.

If the fire point is not blown up at the planned time, the stormtroopers will be machine-gunned.

The machine gun swept away a large area, and what was even worse was that the casualties of the assault troops were too large, which would affect the subsequent capture of the mountain.

In planned operations, one link after another, if a link fails, other aspects will be implicated.

This drawback can only be solved after the popularization of telephony.

With the phone, the forward's troops can notify other troops who are ready to charge, and let them charge five or ten minutes later, so that the soldiers who clear the fire point have time to complete the task by other means.

The instantaneous communication of the telephone can temporarily adjust the battle plan on the battlefield.

This is information warfare. Information warfare can constantly change and adjust combat tasks according to the battlefield situation.

It is a pity that the army did not have such advanced equipment at that time.

There are many disadvantages to planned operations, but there are also many advantages, such as allowing the enemy to have no reaction time.

Once the planned operation is launched, it is an offensive like a tidal wave.

If the Hua army does not follow this battle plan and chooses to wait for the troops after the break to take Xiangyuan, and then launch an attack by Saijo, it will give the enemy a lot of breathing opportunities.

Without the telephone, it would take time for the intercepting force to pass the message from Saijo and Yagahara to the rear.

At this time, the enemy will be given the opportunity to adjust their deployment, and the enemy can gather superior forces to besiege the intercepting force.

No matter how strong the Chinese army is, it is impossible to completely stop it when it encounters a dozen or twenty times the enemy.

What's more terrible is that in case the soldier passing the message encounters an accident, more variables will be added.

But if they fought according to the plan, the moment the enemy learned that the retreat route was cut off, the Chinese army launched a general attack, and they would have no time to make other responses.

As long as the general offensive of the Chinese army goes well, the enemy will fall into a rout.

In the era of backward communications, planned operations are a very effective way of fighting.

This kind of combat method must also be used by troops with very strong execution.

If the Fusang people come, they still can't play this way.

Two days later, the battle between Mukaihara and Saijo started almost at the same time.

There are not many Fusang people stationed in Xiangyuan, only more than a thousand people.

In fact, they never thought that the Hua army would dare to go deep alone and attack their rear.

This kind of solo and in-depth combat has always been an extremely dangerous operation.

The battle ended quickly, and the Fusang people persisted for less than an hour before being defeated by the Chinese army.

After occupying this point, the three regiments immediately began to dig trenches, build earth walls, and build various fortifications.

They are now deep behind the enemy, if the enemy gathers ten times the enemy, they will also be in danger.

This is the enemy's retreat, and the Fusang people's counterattack is actually an inevitable event.

On the other hand, the war in Saijo was much more intense.

The location here is more important. It is not only a retreat for the Fusang people, but also an enemy for the Fusang people to store various logistical materials.

Here, the Fusang people hoarded more than 5,000 people.

And the Chinese army came to attack here, only more than 4,000 people, of which 2,000 were puppet troops.

It is important to attack this place, but the frontal general attack is also very important. Every direction needs the main force of the Chinese army.

Therefore, Hua Jun had to bring 2,000 puppet troops with him in the action to capture Saijo.

The two thousand puppet troops were recruited in Satsuma Domain, and their loyalty was enough, but their tactical literacy was much poorer.

Even worse, the terrain here in Saijo is also easy to defend and difficult to attack.

There are only two roads leading up the mountain, one of which is very narrow and can only accommodate two people at a time.

At the gate of this road, it is very spacious, accommodating more than a dozen Fusang soldiers.

More than a dozen gun muzzles are enough to block this road, but also because they don't have machine guns.

"As for the mortar, give me a bit of a fucking shot."

The Huajun officers in charge of the attack on this road scolded, because they were planning to make a surprise attack, so they did not bring field guns, but only small-caliber mortars.

The power of these mortars is a little smaller, and even if they hit it accurately, it will only kill some Fuso soldiers and cannot destroy the enemy's fortifications.

The most important thing for Fusang people is people. Whenever a group is killed, the soldiers who are prepared behind will be rushed up immediately to block the Chinese army trying to charge.

This distance that needs to be charged is more than 200 meters, and it is extremely difficult to rush through under this kind of fire blockade.

"Continue to rush for me, whoever can rush in front of the enemy, I will apply for the Silver Sabre Medal for him."

The commander made a promise, which made many soldiers tempted.

The Silver Knife Medal, the highest honor they could get. Moreover, the practical benefits are numerous.

"Second dog, Xiaohu, come with me."

A strong man raised a light machine gun, greeted the two fellow villagers, and rushed towards the enemy's fortifications.

At this time, a mortar shell fell into the enemy's fortifications, and the enemy's gunfire temporarily stopped for a moment.

"rush."

The strong man shouted and rushed towards the enemy with a few people.

In order to run faster, he did not bend over, but spread his legs and rushed forward like a 100-meter race.

"Fire cover."

Hua Jun's tactical literacy is extremely high, and he pays great attention to cooperation.

At this time, they don't care whether there are enemies emerging in the other's fortifications, it is right to keep firing guns, it is best to suppress the enemy who does not dare to emerge, that is perfect.

Machine guns, rifles, all fired at this moment, and those bullets poured out like no money.
