Thinking about the Japanese soldiers standing still and cowering in the streets, Xia Yang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
After extracting all the mines, Xia Yang called to Hu San and asked him to lead the guard platoon to take out some of the mines and prepare to bury them outside the city gate at night.
Hu San looked at the cart of landmines, and then asked Xia Yang: "Tuanzuo, are you doing magic again? Where did you get so many landmines?"
Xia Yang patted him on the back of the head and said: "Don't ask so many questions. You and others should prepare to plant mines at night! Remember, the mines must be dispersed, and you must also remember the location of the mines. If the little devil is killed We fought them off, so we can know where the mines are and can clear them."
After hearing this, Hu San nodded and said: "Okay, boss, don't worry, I will take people to lay these mines."
At this time, Xia Yang suddenly thought of something and said to Hu San: "By the way, Old Hu, remember to bury some at the South City Gate too. I always feel that something might happen at the South City Gate tonight. "
Hu Sandao: "What's the matter?"
Xia Yang said: "I still remember what Shen Liyin, the deputy of the Second Regiment, said before, that a group of Japanese soldiers detoured back to the flank of our unit."
Hu San nodded and said: "What you mean, Tuanzuo, is that they may sneak attack us tonight."
Xia Yang said: "We don't rule out this possibility. To be on the safe side, you can also bury some at the south city gate. Then inform the soldiers guarding the city that they will put out some highlights tonight. Your security platoon will also send two squads to guard the city. , it¡¯s safer this way.¡±
Hu San saluted and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away."
After saying that, he led the security platoon and took the lead in running towards the south gate.
After doing this, Xia Yang said to Cai Heyuan: "Go and notify the three or three battalion commanders stationed at the north gate and the east and west gates, and ask them to pay attention tonight. I always feel that the little devil will be here tonight. They won¡¯t live peacefully, and they might attack us at night.¡±
Cai Heyuan said: "Attack at night? The little devil has just arrived at our Mancheng city. Why are you so anxious to attack us!"
Xia Yang said: "Surprise us and attack us unprepared. We feel that the less time they can attack us, the more likely they are to attack us."
In fact, Xia Yang¡¯s consideration is not unreasonable.
?According to some war history materials he read at that time, the Japanese army was very good at conducting night battles. And they are willing to attack the Chinese army's positions at night.
After all, the Chinese army at this time lacked night-fighting equipment such as flares and tracer bombs, and was suddenly attacked by well-trained Japanese troops, which could easily cause the collapse of the defense line.
Cai Heyuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll inform them right away."
After finishing all these, Xia Yang returned to the regiment headquarters and notified the military headquarters of the situation on his side by telegram.
The situation in Baoding City is not very optimistic. The main forces of the two Japanese divisions are concentrated on the front and left wing of Baoding City.
Although the Japanese army has not yet begun a formal offensive, this afternoon, the bombing of Baoding City and surrounding counties, as well as the national army positions, began.
In addition to reporting the situation, Xia Yang also reminded Commander Feng to be careful about Japanese attacks on our front at night. If the Japanese army attacks at night, we will definitely be caught off guard.
The key is that the directions of Baoding City are interconnected. If one line of defense is breached, it is likely that each defense point will fall into a state of fighting on its own. They were even divided and surrounded by Japanese troops, and then defeated one by one.
After seeing Xia Yang¡¯s reminder, Commander Feng also realized that he seemed to have ignored or underestimated the Japanese army¡¯s night fighting capabilities.
Although they had fought against the Japanese army several times before, the Japanese army did not show night fighting in front of them. But they have not demonstrated it, which does not mean that the Japanese army's night fighting capabilities are not strong.
After receiving Xia Yang¡¯s reminder, Commander Feng immediately sent a telegram to all regiments and divisions, asking them to strengthen their vigilance at night and be careful of Japanese movements.
No matter what, if the Japanese army really attacks tonight. It is always better for them to be on guard than to have no guard at all. It's better not to take this kind of thing lightly, otherwise tens of thousands of lives will be lost!
As night fell slowly, Hu San ran to the top of the city and said to Xia Yang, who was still observing the movements of the Japanese troops with a telescope on the top of the city: "Tuanzuo, it's dark today, and you can't see clearly with your telescope!"
Xia Yang smiled. His telescope was purchased from Huangsha Baizhan System. It has night vision function. Even if it is dark now, he can still see the situation in the Japanese camp.
However, there was no need for him to explain this to Hu San. He asked directly: "How are the mines at the South City Gate being laid?"
Hu Sandao: "They are all buried. If the Japs really attack the south gate, they will definitely have to take a plane, hahaha."
??
Hu San responded and quietly left the city gate with a group of veterans.
It was dark at this time, and the Japanese army did not have such time-honored equipment as night vision telescopes. Xia Yang didn't have to worry about Hu San and the others being discovered when they laid landmines.
¡°Besides, so what if they are discovered, when the time comes for the Japs to charge, they can¡¯t carry out a metal detector to detect and clear mines against the machine gun fire on top of the city!
At 11:30 p.m., on the position of the 59th Regiment of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army, Ichiro Banishi looked at the assembled Japanese infantry brigade with an extremely solemn expression on his face.
He glanced at the Mancheng wall in the distance and said: "Everyone! You must capture Mancheng tonight and do your part to conquer the land of China for His Majesty the Emperor."
The infantrymen shouted in unison: "Hai!!"
They are well-organized and have high morale. Everyone has a look of death on their faces. There is no doubt that these are the elite combat forces of the 59th Regiment.
Tokimori Takuno came over at this time and said to Banishi Kazuo: "Your Excellency, the regiment commander, the division headquarters has approved our artillery request. They will fire two base numbers of artillery shells for us, and the artillery shells will cover the entire city. The bombardment will end around 11:50, I hope we can seize the time of the bombardment and attack the city in one fell swoop."
Ichiro Banishi nodded and said, "Okay, how are Captain Watanabe's preparations going?"
Tokimori Takuno said: "Captain Watanabe has successfully entered the woods five hundred meters outside the south gate of Mancheng. At this time, they did not realize that there are many defensive forces on the south wall of Mancheng. The chance of success should be great."
