Because of Xu Zhigeng, the Yamazaki Battalion of the Japanese army, which should have been eliminated long ago, was still alive and well.
In the headquarters of the Yamazaki Brigade, the mustached Yamazaki was studying the sandbox in the combat room.
This sandbox was the Black Cloud Stronghold.
Beside him, the four senior captains were present.
"Sir, this Black Cloud Stronghold killed Xiao Ye. We must avenge him.”Kawashima said angrily.
" Captain," Yoshino said," we used to chase after those bandits and beat them to death. Their equipment is very poor. At most, they have the strength of a battalion.
As long as we bring the artillery to support them, we will definitely be able to take them down.”
Company Leader Sanben of the transport squadron nodded."That's right, Captain. I heard that those bandits have joined the 8th Army. If we kill them, the higher-ups will definitely promote you to the regimental commander.”
They didn't even care about the Eighth Route, let alone these bandits.
They did not care about these bandits at all.
The other Company Leader didn't say anything, so he dragged it on.
Yamazaki nodded after listening to the three captains.
Indeed, even Eight Paths only dared to play hide-and-seek with them.
These bandits had even worse equipment and had not experienced much battle. They were just a bunch of trash and were easy to deal with.
Moreover, the three of them were right. These bandits had already joined the 8th Rank. As long as he killed these 8th Rank bandits, he would definitely be promoted.
The regimental commander was Yamazaki's pursuit.
He was now the Japanese army's junior officer. If he could become a regiment commander, he would at least be a lieutenant.
This was simply a free military merit.
Then, he looked at Senior Captain Yamamoto Kawaying, who hadn't said a word.
"Yamamoto, what do you think?"
This Yamamoto Kawaying was not an ordinary person. It was said that his younger brother had returned from studying in Germany. He had now formed a special forces team and was very popular in the headquarters.
Moreover, the Yamamoto family was very popular in the country. Their family had a person named Yamamoto 56, who was now a lieutenant general.
They were nobles.
Yamamoto Kawaying looked at the sand table.
"Have you thought about how Xiao Ye and the others died? I think they fell into the trap of these Tu Ba people. The Black Cloud Stronghold is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If we charge in without cover, we only need a few machine guns to cause us heavy losses.”
"Even if we successfully take down the Black Cloud Stronghold, we won't be able to gain any benefits. If there are many casualties, I'm afraid that I'll be the only one who can take over your position as the captain.”
Yamamoto Kawakage said with a smile.
Hearing this, the few of them also reacted.
If the Black Cloud Stronghold kept defending and did not counterattack, what would they do?
Forcefully charging? Even if they did, they would suffer heavy losses.
"Then what should we do?" Yamazaki looked at Kawaying Yamamoto. He didn't blame Yamamoto for what he had said earlier and asked in confusion.
Since Yamamoto had said it, he would not scheme against him.
Yamamoto Kawaying smiled.
He pointed at the sand table and said,"Do you see that? There's a high ground here. It's about a kilometer away from the Black Cloud Stronghold."”
"As long as we arrange our artillery here, we can continuously bombard the Black Cloud Stronghold and suppress them.”
"Our command center is also set up here, so we can observe the battle situation. Even if they seized three grenade launchers from Xiaoye, we don't have to be afraid. Those grenade launchers only have a range of 200 meters, so they don't pose much of a threat to us.”
"Then, under the cover of the artillery, we can attack the entrance of the Black Cloud Stronghold.”
Senior Captain Kawashima pointed at the Black Cloud Stronghold and said,"There's only one passage in front of the Black Cloud Stronghold. It's very narrow. At most, two cars can pass through. In your words, as long as we have a few machine guns, we won't be able to attack.”
Yoshino nodded, feeling that it made sense.
Yamazaki frowned as well. Yamamoto Kawaying hadn't solved the root problem yet.
Yamamoto Kawaying smiled." I know the 13th Armored Regiment next door. They happen to be resting in Taiyuan. I borrowed three tanks from them. With the cover of the tanks, those 8th Armored Regiment won't be so scary."”
Hearing this, the few of them were speechless. This was what a noble should be like. Their network was so wide that they could even borrow a tank.
However, if they had tanks, they wouldn't have to fear those guns. Even the grenade launchers that Ono's squadron had seized would be useless.
"How long will it take?" Senior Captain Sanhon asked.
"If I borrow it, it will be very fast. It will only take a few days.”
They would be able to launch an attack in about a week.
Hearing this, the few of them nodded.
"Alright, in that case, we'll attack the Black Cloud Stronghold a week later and take revenge for Xiao Ye.”
"Hey!" Everyone nodded.
………………………………
"Zhao Xiong, lead them for a five-kilometer run. I'll give you twenty minutes to bring all your equipment.”
At the back of the Black Cloud Stronghold, Xu Zhigeng directly gave the order.
Zhao Xiong nodded and left with the special forces.
Xu Zhigeng looked at the training plan written on his wooden board.
"Combat skills, mobility skills, infiltration skills, spying skills…”Looking at his training program, Xu Zhigeng smiled.
"I wonder how strong the soldiers trained by the special training techniques in the future will be? Xu Zhigeng is looking forward to it."
For five consecutive days, Xu Zhigeng trained Zhao Xiong and the others on how to hide, including all kinds of firearms, grenades, rifle grenades, small-caliber artillery, and anti-tank weapons. Hand-to-hand combat was the most important.
Xu Zhigeng worked hard to make them adapt to street fighting and night fighting, and to be able to search for and escape.
He even taught them how to clear mines and pass through minefields.
However, there were no mines now, so they could not teach on the spot.
At this moment, the people from the Munitions Factory arrived.
Zhang Wanhe made a lot of mines for them, including 50 anti-tank mines and 200 infantry mines.
After getting these things, Xu Zhigeng immediately began to teach the special forces how to set up mines, how to set up booby traps, and how to set up anti-tank mines.
A few companies also came to watch. These skills were required by every infantryman.
Then, Xu Zhigeng patiently taught him how to dismantle the mines.
After a whole day of learning, the special forces team was very familiar with the deployment of mines, but they were still not familiar with the demolition of mines.
However, this kind of thing required accumulation and could not be learned in a short time.
"How are your shooting skills?”
Xu Zhigeng looked at Zhao Xiong and asked.
These few days, they had been practicing their shooting with all their might, and their bullets were not even limited. These guys were already outstanding, so they should be even stronger now.
"Battalion Commander, everyone can hit a moving target at two hundred meters.”Zhao Xiong saluted.
Xu Zhigeng nodded." Alright, you guys take a rest. Gather here at six o'clock in the evening."”
This was not the future. This was an era of war. If they could train in actual combat, what was the point of doing anything else?
Tonight, he would let them have a try and see the effect.
