Chapter 6: Inverted triangle ambush formation

Views:

For most people, war is a disaster and the battlefield is purgatory. But for some people, war means opportunity, and the battlefield is a stage for them to show themselves and express their ambitions.

Undoubtedly, Tachibana Koji belongs to the latter category. He was definitely born for this troubled world.

Tachibana Koji was born into a samurai family in Kumamoto. His ancestors were samurai from the Satsuma domain. His grandfather, father and elder brother were all soldiers. His own resume was even more extraordinary. He first graduated from the 6th Army with excellent results and served in the Kwantung Army. Due to his outstanding performance during his service, he was recommended by the Kwantung Army Headquarters and entered the Army University for further studies.

Three years later, Tachibana Koji graduated from the Sixth University with the top score in all subjects. He was received by the Emperor and given a sword. He was honored to become a member of the saber team.

Under normal circumstances, students who graduated from the Sixth National University must serve as staff officers in the military or field divisions for at least one year, and then they can serve as the deputy of the regiment. Tachibana Koji was lucky enough to catch up with the Battle of Songhu. Less than half a month after joining the army, he was transferred to the field wing as the wing deputy.

Just after leaving the regiment, Tachibana Koji got another opportunity to independently carry out combat missions.

Because the timely capture of Wusong Town and the railway dock cleared the way for the Japanese 3rd Division's heavy equipment and follow-up personnel and materials to land, and also laid the foundation for the victory of the Songhu Battle, Tachibana Koji received the support of the division headquarters and the He received a commendation from the Condemnation Army Headquarters, and was promoted to colonel a few days later and served as commander of the regiment.

Tachibana Koji is also the youngest regiment captain in the history of the Japanese army besides the royal family.

At this moment, Tachibana Koji was getting dressed with the help of the orderlies. Last night, he repeated his old trick again and personally led a small team to disguise themselves as refugees and sneak into the city of Wuxi. After exploring the locations of the various headquarters of the defenders, The aviation force was guided to carry out targeted bombing. In the first round of bombing, the command system of the defenders was completely destroyed.

Taking off his ragged clothes and putting on a straight woolen military uniform, Tachibana Koji immediately transformed from an unkempt Chinese refugee into a colonel officer of the Imperial Japanese Army. Deputy captain Jiro Kobayashi walked in with several combat staff officers. , paying tribute to Tachibana Kojimari.

Kobayashi Jiro said: "Thank you for your hard work, captain."

"It's nothing." Tachibana Koji waved his hand and said, "Kobayashi-san, how is the mopping up the remaining enemies in the city going? Is it going well?"

Kobayashi Jiro immediately asked the combat staff to bring a map, and then pointed to the map and said: "Captain, please see, the remnants of the Chinese garrison have been divided and surrounded by the imperial army in the west, south and east of the city. From the battle reports of each brigade, , the Chinese ** team has completely lost its organized resistance, and sporadic resistance will soon be crushed, but... "

Tachibana Koji frowned and asked, "But what? Kobayashi-san, tell me what you have to say."

"Hai." Jiro Kobayashi bowed fiercely and replied, "Captain, the Akita brigade just reported that three mopping up teams suddenly lost contact."

"Nani?" Tachibana Koji's brows furrowed and he asked again, "Where is it?"

Kobayashi Jiro walked to the map, pointed at it and said: "Commander Captain, please look, it's right here."

"Near the city center?" Tachibana Koji tapped the map with his hand, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Kobayashi-san, immediately deploy two squadrons to strengthen the Akita brigade, focus on sweeping the city center, and then tell Akita that the remaining enemies must be eliminated before noon! Today! I don’t want there to be any living things in Wuxi before dark.”

"Hai!" Kobayashi Jiro snapped his feet back and stood at attention.

(Dividing line)

Seeing Xu Ruisha observing the terrain with a serious look, Lin Feng couldn't help but ask: "Brother, are you really planning to fight the little devil here?"

We just killed another Japanese mopping up team, and gathered a few remnant soldiers by the way.

Xu Rui squinted his eyes to observe the surrounding terrain, and asked Lin Feng: "What, you think it can't be done?"

"What do you think?" Lin Feng said angrily, "You should know that the Japs' mopping up team is only an infantry squad at best, but the Japs' support team is at least a squad, or even a squadron. Do you think, with our strength? Can a mere twenty-odd remnant soldiers be able to confront a small team of Japanese soldiers?"

Xu Rui threw the half-smoked cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out, then turned around and asked Lin Feng: "I haven't even tried it, how do you know it won't work?"

"Is this still a trial?" Lin Feng asked anxiously, "We are at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, firepower, and individual combat effectiveness. Moreover, the Japanese have a large team of people as backup, but we are fighting alone. We definitely have no chance of winning. "

"Absolutely again, I told you, never jump to conclusions!" Xu Rui's expression cooled down, and he stared at Lin Feng with cold eyes and said, "Yes, we do only have more than 20 remnant soldiers. Moreover, he is still fighting alone, and the Japs are indeed powerful in numbers, but who said that victory in numbers is guaranteed?"

Lin Feng said anxiously: "Of course there is no such rule, but this is an objective law."

"Objective laws?" Xu Rui glanced at Lin Feng coldly, and then said, "I only know the laws of tactical application, but I have never heard of any laws that the enemy will win and our army will lose. Chief of Staff Lin, We cannot underestimate the Japanese, but we must not take the Japanese too seriously. Believe me, we will win this battle."

"We must win this battle?" Lin Feng said dumbfounded, "What's the reason?"

"The reason is that the little devil doesn't know how powerful I am, Mr. Xu!" After saying that, Xu Rui turned around and shouted, "Machine gun, who else knows how to play with machine gun? I want a machine gunner."

"I can!" Yang Dashu stood in front of Xu Rui and said proudly.

"You?" Xu Rui glanced at Yang Dashu and asked, "Can you do it?"

Yang Dashu said angrily: "When I carried the Czech style, you didn't know where you were playing in the mud."

"It's pretty straight, that's okay." Xu Rui moved the crooked handle of another captured machine gun to the connecting position, then handed the machine gun to Yang Dashu's hand, and said, "Make a single point and show it to me."

When shooting a single point from the camera position, the most important thing is the gun feel of the machine gunner.

Yang Dashu held the crooked handle and gently hugged the fire, hitting two single points easily.

"It's not bad." Xu Rui nodded, then pointed to a half-collapsed foreign-style house on the right, and said, "Go to the rooftop of that foreign-style building to ambush. The Japanese will pass by you later. Don't be in a hurry to open fire. Wait for me." Order."

Yang Dashu turned back to look at Lin Feng, thinking who is this person? Why should you obey his orders

Lin Feng frowned and said: "Dashu, Commander Xu's order is my order, execute the order!"

"Yes." Yang Dashu agreed, picked a deputy shooter from the remaining soldiers, and left with a machine gun.

Xu Rui turned to Lin Feng and said, "Brother Lin, the machine gun shot was pretty good just now, so I won't bother you two. If you can help me, you can be a machine gunner again."

"Okay, no problem." Lin Feng agreed simply.

Lin Feng may not be a qualified commander, but he is definitely an excellent chief of staff. Although his suggestions were not adopted by Xu Rui, when Xu Rui made a decision, he chose to obey without hesitation. Unconsciously, even Lin Feng himself did not realize that he had positioned himself as Xu Rui's chief of staff.

"That's man." Xu Rui gave Lin Feng a thumbs up, then pointed to a house on the left and said, "Go and ambush on the roof of the house over there, be careful not to expose the target, and again, again, If the little Jaap passes under your nose, don’t be in a hurry to open fire, wait for my order, do you understand?”

"I understand." Lin Feng nodded and left with a remnant soldier.

Xu Rui called the remaining 20 or so remnants to the front, then pointed to the row of houses in front that had been bombed into ruins, and said in a deep voice: "I will ambush you in the ruins over there, and be careful to hide."

"Yes!" The twenty or so remnant soldiers agreed and scattered in all directions.

Soon, only Xu Rui and the "well-established" veteran were left.

Xu Rui smiled slightly and said to the veteran: "Veteran, you should know what I plan to do, right?"

"You want to stage an ambush." The veteran said coldly, "But please forgive me, you think of the problem too simply. The kid's mopping up team can only have one squad at most, but the support team has at least one infantry squad. Just based on this There are only about 20 people, and if you want to ambush a Japanese infantry squad, you have no chance of winning."

Xu Rui said: "It is not impossible to take someone by surprise, attack them unprepared, and defeat more with less."

The veteran said: "Yes, this is indeed said in the art of war, but the art of war is just the art of war. No matter how good the tactics are, it is not enough to make up for the huge gap in troop strength, especially in firepower. You have to know that a standard Japanese infantry squad has five Fourteen people, equipped with three light machine guns, three grenade launchers, and sometimes a Type 92 heavy machine gun."

Xu Rui smiled and did not continue to argue with the veteran, but changed the subject and said: "I want to try it anyway, and the ambush position has been selected, but the Japanese are not fools. They will not sneak into the trap by themselves. So someone has to lure the little devil here, veteran, do you dare to take on this responsibility?"

The veteran glanced at Xu Rui coldly, picked up the 38-inch hijab, and left without looking back.

As soon as the veteran left, Xu Rui quickly entered the ruins ahead. If you look down from the sky at this time, you will find that the ambush point of Xu Rui and the more than 20 remnants is exactly formed by Lin Feng on the left and Yang Dahu on the right. A triangle, and this triangle is an inverted triangle with two points facing forward and the sharp corners facing backward.

This is the classic inverted triangle ambush formation.

The inverted triangle ambush formation first appeared in the Vietnam War.

In jungle terrain, using an inverted triangle ambush formation, three people can easily kill a squad. If there are three machine guns, they can even kill a platoon.

During his time at the military academy, Xu Rui once conducted in-depth research on the inverted triangle ambush formation.

In Xu Rui's view, the inverted triangle ambush formation is also suitable for street fighting, and if used properly, its power is even greater than that of jungle fighting. Now Xu Rui can finally verify his views in actual combat.

In just a moment, intensive gunfire came from the front, and they were obviously approaching the ambush position.

In less than half a minute, the veteran's figure turned around from the street corner in front of him. As soon as the veteran turned the corner, dense bullets were already poured over him like a sudden rain, hitting the green bricks on the wall behind him so that smoke and dust flew everywhere. If he had been slow, In the first half of the step, the veteran might have been beaten into a bloody sieve. This reaction speed is really not exaggerated.

Xu Ruiyue was more and more certain that this veteran must have a great background.
