Chapter 475 Difficult Task
"The Japanese tanks are coming, they will definitely attack from the road!"
"That's right, the Japanese tanks are made of iron sheets, bullets can't penetrate them, there's no way the Japanese would leave their tanks unused!"
Zhao Ying'er and her brother immediately objected.
The other people from the Black Tiger Camp also nodded in agreement.
Yuan Shuai smiled calmly.
"The Japs have tanks, but we don't. Don't forget, we have 24 tanks in Pingpan City, as well as many 75mm field guns and 105mm howitzers! If the Japs use tanks against us, what can they use to deal with the tanks coming out of Pingpan City!"
Hearing this, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
Zhao Zilong even slapped himself on the forehead.
"Yeah, how could I have forgotten about Ping Pan City? But, are there really so many tanks in the county?"
"Of course there are. I have seized twelve tanks from the Tiangu Detachment alone. The Yamazaki Brigade has twelve tanks. Although some of them were damaged, I have had people move the damaged tanks to the top of the city wall and set up defenses around the tanks. The tanks have become artillery and heavy firepower points on the city wall!"
"Get the tanks onto the city wall!? How did they get there?!"
Zhao Ying'er and others opened their eyes and mouths wide.
"Use tanks to tow and push! Isn't that easy?"
Yuan Shuai's words made Zhao Ying'er blush with embarrassment.
After all, she had never fought a battle with the Japanese tanks, so of course she didn't know how the tanks climbed up the city walls.
However, Yuan Shuai is very familiar with tanks.
Those tanks that were damaged when entering the county town were directly towed by good tanks in front and pushed from behind, and sent to the city wall. Then thick sandbags were piled around the tanks to make tank bunkers.
Not only can it fire cannons, it can also shoot with tank machine guns.
So, there are now 24 tanks in the entire county.
If the Japs want to attack the county town, they must use tanks to fight tanks.
Because there are 9 105 howitzers in the county town.
Although the Japanese had 12 howitzers, if they wanted to defend Zhenlongkou, they would definitely leave a few 105 howitzers and 75 field guns in Zhenlongkou to cover wider areas such as Jiudaowan.
Therefore, General Yuan concluded that the Japanese would definitely not rashly use tanks to attack their Black Tiger Village via the main road.
Hu Zi asked puzzledly.
"Yuan Shuai, do you think the Japanese will attack the county first?"
"will not!"
Yuan Shuai shook his head again.
"If they go to attack the county town, they will definitely consider being attacked from the flank. So they will definitely come to deal with us first!"
"But you just said they wouldn't use tanks against us!"
Hu Zi was completely confused.
Yuan Shuai explained with a smile.
"I just said that the Japs won't use tanks to attack us, and won't come from the main road, but I didn't say that the Japs won't come from the flank forest!"
"If I'm not mistaken, the Japanese will definitely let a large force approach the fork in the road, making us mistakenly think that they will attack from the main road, and thus mobilize their forces here. If this is true, the Japanese will launch an attack from the flank of the woods! Because in the eyes of the Japanese, we are just some country folk, with few troops and little combat effectiveness! One battalion of theirs plus two battalions of puppet troops are enough to wipe us out!"
"Then what do we do?"
"What else can we do? We can use their tricks to attack us. We can place a lot of chess pieces on this side of the road and light a few more bonfires. We will make the Japanese think that our people have come here and let them attack from the woods as much as they want! Then we can kill the pigs in the woods!"
"But what if the Japanese attack from the main road?"
"No, at least, not now!"
Hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Zhao Dalei.
After all, Zhao Dalei is the leader of their village.
Beads of cold sweat appeared on Zhao Dalei's forehead.
After all, the other side had more than 10,000 devils and a regiment of puppet troops.
Although their Black Tiger Camp had more than 2,000 soldiers, with Fu Hongfei's regiment and the guerrillas, the total force was more than 3,500 people.
But the total number of the Japanese puppet troops was more than three times theirs.
Although he had fought against old warlords and bandits before, he had never fought a battle this big.
The disparity in military strength is already huge, and if we guess the wrong direction, we will be even more passive.
He swallowed, looked at Yuan Shuai and asked.
"General Yuan, the Japanese had arranged for people to pretend to be hunters to attack from the flank before, but they were killed by you. Will they continue to attack from the flank this time?"
Yuan Shuai did not answer, but just pointed in the direction and spoke.
"Don't forget, Longkou Town is not only guarded by Jiudaowan, but also Sanchalu!"
"The Japanese Type 105 10.5mm howitzer has a maximum range of 105 kilometers, which can just cover Sancha Road! In other words, the Japanese army is stationed in the area of Sancha Road. In this way, their mm howitzers can cover Sancha Road. It is impossible for us to support the county town from the road, or for people in the county town to come to support us from the road!"
"If you don't believe me, you can send someone to scout and see if the Japanese are setting up camp in the area around Sancha Road!"
Zhao Dalei quickly glanced at one of his men.
The men quickly turned around and rode away on their horses.
After a long time, the man came on horseback, sweating profusely.
"Reporting to the village chief, General Yuan is right. The Japanese vanguard has already guarded the three-way intersection, and some have already set up camp near the three-way intersection."
"Damn it! The Japs are trying to cut off our route to the county town!"
Hu Zi gritted his teeth and cursed.
"It's not that serious! The road is cut off, we can go through the woods, it just takes a little longer!"
As soon as Yuan Shuai finished speaking, someone rode quickly towards him from the right wing.
"Captain, it's bad. From the right wing, we found that the Japanese and puppet troops are advancing towards our Black Tiger Village!"
"how many people?"
"There are a lot of people, probably thousands of Japanese soldiers, and hundreds of puppet soldiers!"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Because Marshal Yuan just said that the Japanese might send a battalion and two battalions of puppet troops to attack the Black Tiger Village from the flank woods.
Now it has come true, and the number of people is almost the same.
"Damn, Yuan Shuai is simply a fortune teller!"
"He really guessed it right, and he even guessed the number of people!"
"Village leader, give the order!"
Many men looked at their leader.
Village leader Zhao Dalei looked at Yuan Shuai and said.
"Brother Yuan Shuai, how do you say we fight?"
"Just as I said, we'll use the opponent's tactics against us!"
"Okay, everyone listen up. From now on, this battle will be commanded by the Black Wolf Army's leader, General Yuan. His orders are mine, Zhao Dalei's orders! Anyone who disobeys orders will be punished according to the village rules!"
Zhao Dalei raised his voice and shouted.
After all, this was the first time in the history of the Black Tiger Camp that they had fought against the Japanese, and the first time they had fought against so many Japanese. This battle could only be won and not lost, otherwise, they would lose their lives and their Black Tiger Camp would lose.
He knew that he did not have the ability to win this battle, so he handed this difficult task to Yuan Shuai.
