Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

Kong Jie’s question is very crucial.

"Anyway, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. The Yamazaki Battalion has been surrounded by us on the Lijiaopo Highland, and they can't escape. It will take a long time for the Japanese's external reinforcements to reach Lijiaopo.

We have plenty of time to discuss what kind of battle plan to use to defeat the Yamazaki Battalion."

Captain Cheng was confused by the question.

To be honest, he really hadn't thought carefully about what combat plan to use to attack Lijiaopo.

Anyway, let’s seize the main attack first and then dispatch the troops there.

Kong Jie took direct action. He took some soil from the yard, put it on a wooden board, and quickly built a simple prism, which became the Lijiaopo Heights.

Then he returned to the conference room, placed the simple Lijiapo simulation sand table on the table, and said to Director Cheng:

"Old Chen, let's have a simulated attack and defense exercise around Lijiaopo, using this simple simulated sand table of Lijiaopo Heights that I made.

I represent the Yamazaki Battalion stationed on the high ground, and you represent the 772nd Regiment in the attack.

If you can defeat the Yamazaki Battalion I represent in a simulated confrontation exercise.

There is no doubt that the main attack mission this time must belong to your 772nd Regiment.

But if not, we need to think carefully about which regiment to assign the main attack mission to."

The cadres around, especially the old comrades who were familiar with Kong Jie, were all a little stunned.

At this time, Kong Jie showed active thinking and his discourse analysis was clear and distinct.

How could this be the old comrade in their memory who was brave in battle but not flexible enough?

Even the brigade commander and the political commissar were completely interested. It was the first time for the 386th Brigade to conduct a confrontation simulation exercise in this way.

Captain Cheng was also a tough guy, and he agreed immediately: "Come on, Lao Kong, do you think I'm afraid of you?"

The surrounding cadres were also afraid that the world would not be in chaos, so they all came to watch the fun.

The two sides quickly started fighting.

An offensive and defensive confrontation simulation was carried out based on the Lijiaopo Highland represented by a simple prism made of mud by Kong Jie.

"Now, I represent the Yamazaki Battalion. According to our intelligence, the Yamazaki Battalion has uniquely built all its fortifications in the central area of ​​Lijiapo Highland."

As Kong Jie spoke, he inserted some woodwork into the center area of ​​the top surface of the mud-made prism, representing the field fortifications of the Yamazaki Battalion.

"The entire Lijiapo Highland is extremely steep in the east, west and north directions. The main force can't go up there at all. Only the gentle slope in the south can be used for a small number of reinforcements to attack."

"That's roughly the situation. Old Cheng, you make your move!"

The situation thus evolved rapidly in the confrontation between the two sides:

Facing Kong Jie-Yamazaki Battalion stationed on Lijiaopo Heights.

Although the 772nd Regiment had some artillery, the number was extremely limited. With only a few mortars, it was impossible for them to directly launch artillery fire below the Lijiaopo Heights and eliminate the Japanese army.

It was even more impossible for the soldiers to fly directly to the high ground and engage in a firefight with the Japanese.

There is nothing we can do.

Captain Cheng, who had racked his brains but could not come up with a solution, could only continue to send more troops and launch an attack on Lijiaopo through the gentle slope in the south.

At this time, Kong Jie was representing the old Japanese soldier Yamazaki and commanding the young Japanese soldiers. They used various vicious tactics and strategies to continuously kill the Eighth Route Army on the Lijiaopo Heights.

such as:

By hiding their firepower and temporarily concealing a large amount of heavy machine guns and light machine guns, they repelled several exploratory attacks by the Eighth Route Army.

When a large number of Eighth Route Army troops appeared in the ridge area and launched a charge, they would unleash all their hidden firepower and catch the Eighth Route Army off guard.

The specially dug and constructed anti-artillery fortifications could withstand the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army and provide perfect concealment.

The limited artillery shells of the Eighth Route Army had no effect at all when they hit the fortifications.

The perfectly constructed light and heavy machine gun fortifications formed a dense firepower network covering from multiple angles. Any Eighth Route Army that appeared at the ridgeline would immediately face a devastating blow.

The entire Lijiaopo Highlands was built like a hedgehog, making it impossible to get close to it.

As the two sides conducted simulated confrontation drills.

As casualties rapidly increased, the unconvinced Captain Cheng continued to launch attacks.

attack!

attack!

attack!

Under the command of Captain Cheng, the soldiers of the 772nd Regiment passed the gentle slope on the south, continuously reinforced their troops, and launched a fearless and heroic charge.

however……

All this was of no avail, the Japanese soldiers stationed on the high slopes were killing indiscriminately.

Absolutely abundant supply of ammunition.

More than 500 Japanese soldiers were enough to hold the Lijiaopo Heights for several days and nights.

How many soldiers of your Eighth Route Army were killed by us?

Captain Cheng, who was constantly frustrated, almost went bloodthirsty and fell into madness, as if the simulated confrontation before him had become a real battlefield.

When he insisted on launching the ninth charge.

A voice like thunder in the clear sky rang out: "Old Cheng, there is no need to continue, your 772nd Regiment has been completely defeated.

So far you have launched eight attacks.

The casualties were probably close to 2000.

Your 772nd Regiment has only about 2500 soldiers. 2000 of them have been killed. What else can you do to continue fighting?"

"I……"

With red eyes and in a frenzy, Captain Cheng, whose military cap had long been clutched in his trembling hands, wanted to say a few words in defense, but the words were on the tip of his tongue and he couldn't say them.

goo-dong-

The cadres who witnessed the entire military confrontation exercise as spectators fell into complete silence and were deeply shocked in their hearts.

Even though this was just a military simulation confrontation exercise.

But it is so realistic.

It is entirely conceivable that if the 772nd Regiment took on the main attack mission this time.

If we had launched an attack on Lijiaopo Heights according to this tactical plan at this moment, the situation would have been extremely tragic.

The nearly 2000 soldiers who died at that time are not the current numbers.

Instead, it represents a living life.

No one knows better than Kong Jie that if he hadn't been there to stop it, such tragic casualties would have really happened.

"Old Kong, you can't cheat. There are only 500 little devils. How can their fighting power be so strong?"

Captain Cheng, who was so angry, clenched his fists and stiffened his neck.

Anyone can see it.

He is like a cooked duck with only his mouth left hard.

Kong Jie said: "According to the conventional firepower configuration of the Japanese battalion, there are about 12 heavy machine guns, about 36 light machine guns, about 36 grenade launchers, and countless various grenades and ammunition.

The Japs' sophisticated equipment, fierce artillery, and even the military quality of their soldiers are far more powerful than we imagined.

Moreover, the Yamazaki Battalion has obviously compressed its organization. Since they dare to fight alone in deep territory, wouldn't the firepower configuration of this Japanese army be enhanced?

Their machine guns and artillery will only increase in number, not decrease."

"and……"

Kong Jie said in a resounding voice: "From the beginning to the end, I haven't even mentioned the Japanese air firepower reinforcement!

Old Cheng, did you lose unjustly? "
