    At 5:30 in the morning on July 29, just as the national troops on the front line received the order from the Second Corps Headquarters to take action, the 61st Army, which was on its way to Lion Rock, unexpectedly encountered the Botian Detachment, which was preparing to counterattack Jiujiang.  Encountered a tragic encounter.

    Dajianshan is a small mountain more than 20 kilometers southwest of Jiujiang. During the march, the scouts sent out from the front suddenly issued a warning, and then news came back that they had discovered Japanese soldiers two kilometers away.

    Li Guoyao immediately realized that it was the Botian detachment returning to support Jiujiang, and it was too late to retreat at such a close distance.

    Moreover, there is Dajianshan in front of them. They must seize the commanding heights before the Japanese army arrives. Otherwise, once the Japanese army takes over the Dajianshan highlands first, it will not be easy for the 61st Army to annihilate the Botian detachment. The Japanese army defending the mountain can definitely wait until  The arrival of reinforcements.

    Immediately, Li Guoyao ordered the troops to advance at full speed and occupy the high ground of Dajianshan.

    At the same time, the Botian detachment also noticed the anomaly. The Botian detachment can be regarded as a division with a long history of fighting and has rich combat experience.  Its leading soldiers are also the elite of the Japanese army, so when the scouts of the 61st Army discovered the leading soldiers of the Japanese army, they also discovered the scouts of the 61st Army.

    It¡¯s just that because of the distance, they didn¡¯t see clearly who the other person was.

    When the news was reported to Shigeichi Hatada, the commander who had just been promoted to Army Lieutenant General realized that he was in big trouble.

    There is no need to think that the people on the opposite side must be the Chinese army, and they should be the elite of the Japanese army.  Since they can feel this place, it can only mean one thing. The defenders in Jiujiang City have all been shattered.

    The Chinese army that was able to annihilate more than 600 Japanese Imperial Army in such a short period of time was definitely not an unknown person. It was likely that they encountered those elites carefully cultivated by the Japanese government.

    ¡°And it cannot be a coincidence that this unit appears here at this time. It is very likely that their purpose is to go to the front line of Lion Rock to encircle their detachment.

    Thinking of these, Bo Tianzhong suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he retreated early. If he was really surrounded by the Japanese army on the front line of Lion Rock, he would really have no chance of escaping.

    Now Juichi Namada is also in a dilemma. If he retreats at this time, the Japanese army will definitely press forward. At that time, it will be one side running away and the other chasing him. Even if he can successfully escape the pursuit of the Japanese army in the end,  , the headquarters will also cause considerable losses. This is by no means the result that Namada Juichi wants to see.

    Now we can only defeat the Chinese army in front of us, recapture Jiujiang, and then stand firm in Jiujiang City waiting for reinforcements.

    So even if Jiujiang City is besieged, the base camp will not punish him.

    On the other hand, if he escapes and Jiujiang City, which was finally captured, is recaptured by the Chinese army, he will be punished even if he saves his troops.

    Then Juichi Namada carefully considered the strength of both sides. In his opinion, there are still more than 4,000 capable soldiers in his unit. Except for a small number of them being soldiers from the island, the rest  They are all local soldiers from Kumamoto, Japan, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong.

    If the enemy army on the opposite side is less than 10,000 people, then the chance of winning is about 70%, or even higher.

    This is not because Shigeichi Hatada looks down on the Chinese army, but in previous battles he fought against the Chinese army. In many cases, one detachment faced two or three armies of the national army, and the strength comparison was basically not less than 3:1.  , even sometimes reaching 8:1.

    Chuichi Namada is a standard military adventure maniac. As long as there is a one-tenth chance of winning, he will have an idea, and if there is a three-tenth chance of winning, he will dare to take action.  Now that there is a 70% chance of winning, he can completely throw away any scruples and don't think it is a risk at all.

    There is just one thing that worries Namada Juichi, that is, after continuous battles, his troops are running out of ammunition. If they cannot defeat the Japanese army on the opposite side in a short time, the consequences will be very serious.

    But no matter what, Namada Juichi has decided to take back Jiujiang by force. This is the only way for him and his army to survive.

    At the same time, Chuichi Namada should also realize the importance of Dajianshan not far away.  Because it is the only high ground nearby, and it guards the road at the foot of the mountain. Whoever can seize that high ground will seize the initiative in the war.

    Even if it is impossible to recapture Jiujiang by then, he can still leave a force to block the Japanese army, so that the large force can retreat smoothly.

    Thinking of this, Shigeichi Namada no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered the first regiment of his unit to immediately abandon the baggage and move forward with light equipment. They must occupy Lion Rock before the Japanese arrived, and then build simple fortifications there.

    With the same purpose, the two armies met at six o'clock in the morning.Rushing towards Lion Rock at the same time, the scene was spectacular.

    The battle started at 5:52 in the morning. The vanguard troops of both sides first encountered each other near Dajianshan, and the battle began immediately.

    However, before the vanguard soldiers could tell the winner, the main forces of both sides arrived, and then the two armies of nearly 14,000 people started fighting at the foot of Dajianshan.

    This was a battle without any technical content. There was no tactical arrangement or plan. When the two sides were strangled together, even the command was messed up and it was a complete mess.

    There is no other way, this is what encounters are like, unexpected encounters, and fighting for one's life.

    Since the two sides were directly entangled, all subsequent artillery was useless. No one dared to fire, lest they accidentally injure their own people.

    Outside the battlefield, Li Guoyao stared at the scene in front of him in stunned silence.

    As a special operations commander, Li Guoyao has always paid more attention to the use of tactics. He prefers to achieve the maximum war effect at the minimum cost, and does not like the kind of fighting without technical content in front of him.

    But at this point, he could only wait and see what happens. At this time, the troops were already red-eyed and could not withdraw at all.

    When Li Guoyao was at the battlefield, Juichi Namada was also observing the battlefield through a telescope. He was surprised to find that the army on the opposite side was a replica of the Imperial Army.

    The weapons and equipment are the same, and more importantly, the soldiers' aura and eyes are the same, the same ferocity, the same fearlessness.

    In comparison, some of the soldiers under his command were full of horror!

    No need to think about it, Namada Juichi also knew that those imperial soldiers and civilians were definitely not purebreds, and were probably the second-class citizens of the Bay Island.

    Since these people were forced to come here, their loyalty to the empire is not high. It's okay to fight with the wind. If these people's families were not still under the control of the imperial army, these people would have dispersed long ago.

    " Moreover, these local soldiers from the Bay Island were often bullied by the purebred Japanese, and they were very resentful. It is understandable that they would show cowardice on the battlefield.

    But it doesn¡¯t matter. Now the two sides are fighting together. No one has a way out. If they want to survive, they must rely on the spear and bayonet in their hands.

    Thinking about it at this time, the people on the opposite side cannot be related to those cowardly Bay Island people. There are only enemies of life and death on the battlefield, and there are absolutely no friends.

    Even if those people from the Bay Island want to have reservations, those people on the opposite side will not let them go, so they will definitely fight with their lives later.

    At the same time, Namada Juichi was very glad that he had just ordered his troops to fight with the opponent as soon as he came up. This not only made up for the shortage of ammunition in his unit, but also gave full play to the advantages of the Imperial Japanese Army in hand-to-hand combat.

    Otherwise, judging from the opponent's weapons, equipment and combat experience, if it really turns into a tug-of-war, the consequences will be disastrous. It may not take long for their detachment's ammunition to be consumed by the opponent, and then they will really be ready to be slaughtered.  of lamb.

    Now that it¡¯s fine, the two sides are entangled together. The enemy¡¯s firepower advantage cannot be used, and they can only fight with the Imperial Japanese Army with bayonets.

    ??The skills of the Imperial Japanese Army in bayonet fighting are recognized all over the world. Although the Chinese army on the opposite side has a lot of troops, if they really want to fight face to face, they will never be the opponent of the Imperial Army. It is only a matter of time before they are defeated.

    Is this really the case?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
