I am God of War in Snow Leopard

Chapter 80 Precautions
"The devil has withdrawn again!"

"Great, the devil was repulsed by Battalion Commander Xu and the others again!"

When seeing the Japanese attacking troops scrambling to retreat like a tide.

All the onlookers on the other side of the Suzhou Creek cheered in unison.

On the roof of the warehouse, Xu Qingfeng also stood up and glanced at the cheering people on the south bank.

He told Liang Shan and Chen Qifeng: "The enemy is likely to retaliate with artillery fire. The roof is not safe, so retreat quickly."

With that said, he turned around and took the lead to leave.

Liang Shan and Chen Qifeng hurriedly picked up their weapons, and retreated after them.

When he came to the command post on the third floor, Xu Qingfeng told Liang Shan: "Staff Liang, you go and inform the 7th company to resume diving training immediately.

Other companies and platoons checked weapons and ammunition, made preparations for artillery defense, took the time to reinforce fortifications, and then rested and stood by. "

"Yes!" Liang Shan responded, and immediately took the order and rushed towards the warehouse hall.

At this time, a harsh scream suddenly came from outside.

Immediately afterwards, there was a violent explosion, which rang out one after another outside the warehouse.

The retaliatory shelling by the Japanese army came as promised.

……

In the temporary command post of the 5th Brigade, Riichiro Katayama, who had just returned, asked with a dark face to Takashi Takamori who was following him: "Takamori-kun, we must think of a way to capture the Four Lines Warehouse as soon as possible. !”

Takashi Takamori bowed his head with a serious expression and said: "Hai, General, judging from the current situation, it is obviously not wise to attack by force!

Under the premise of not being able to use heavy weapons and being restricted by the terrain, it is impossible to maximize the advantages of troops.

If we continue to attack, we will pay an unimaginable price of casualties. "

Riichiro Katayama snorted coldly, "What I want is an offensive method, not an analysis of the battle situation."

Takashi Takamori lowered his head and said: "General, there is a way for me to do this, but I'm afraid it won't work in a short time."

"Tell me about it." Riichiro Katayama glanced sideways at him and said.

"Since the ground attack is not feasible, we can find another way, such as digging forward from the ground and adopting the method of soil work.

As long as we can dig out one or even multiple tunnels leading to the Sixing Warehouse.

Whether launching a surprise attack or directly blasting the warehouse foundation, you can destroy the defense of the warehouse defenders, and then capture the warehouse and eliminate them! "

After Takamori finished speaking, he looked at Riichiro Katayama and cautiously added: "However, digging tunnels takes time.

Even if we have sufficient manpower, I am afraid it will be difficult to complete without two or three days. "

"Baga!" Katayama Satoichiro said furiously: "The order from the Divisional Headquarters is for us to take it within a day.

If the delay continues, how do you want me to explain to Commander Fujita? "

Takamori Takashi looked embarrassed, and thought, judging from the current battle situation, it would be impossible to take down the Sixing Warehouse in one day if he continued to force the attack.

Moreover, the cost of casualties will be huge.

In fact, why doesn’t Riichiro Katayama understand this truth?
At this moment, a Japanese staff officer who was present suddenly suggested: "Brigade commander, we can blame the navy for the cause.

It is said that because the navy did not actively cooperate with the blockade, the warehouse defenders were able to receive a steady stream of replenishments.

Therefore, our offense has been repeatedly frustrated! "

Riichiro Katayama and Takamori Takamori's eyes lit up when they heard this, and after they exchanged glances with Takamori Takamori, he immediately said to the staff officer: "Yo Xi, this method is good, let's do it this way."

After finishing speaking, he said filial piety to Takamori: "Immediately organize an engineering unit, quickly survey the terrain, and dig tunnels.

Dig the tunnel as quickly as possible.

In addition, troops and artillery fire must be organized to continue the feint attack to cover the engineering troops' excavation and avoid being discovered by the warehouse defenders. "

"Hay!" Takamori was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed his head to accept the order.

So, the devil changed the attack to a feint.

On the surface, a small number of troops, light and heavy machine guns, and mortar grenade launchers were used to bombard and fire the warehouse from time to time.

In the dark, hundreds of engineers and strong infantry were organized to secretly dig tunnels hundreds of meters away, where the defenders of the Sixing Warehouse could not see.

……

The third floor of the warehouse, the temporary command post.

After repelling the devil's attack again, Sun Kui, the commander of the Ninth Company, came to Xu Qingfeng and raised doubts: "Battle Commander, there seems to be something wrong with the devil."

"Huh?" Xu Qingfeng, who gave the command to Sun Kui just now and went to guide the 7th company to train swimming instead of participating in the battle, said, "How do you say it?"

“Since the first wave of strong attacks were repelled by us, their next few attacks were very weak.

The number of troops dispatched is also much smaller. It seems that they are not interested in fighting, more like a feint attack! "

Sun Kui analyzed seriously.

"Do you think the devil is up to some conspiracy?"

Xu Qingfeng said indifferently: "It is very possible to engage in conspiracy, but it is not important to us, because we will not stick to it forever.

We can retreat when the brothers have learned to use the diving equipment and swim. "

"Then do we have to take precautions in advance to avoid being taken advantage of by the Japanese?" Sun Kui said.

Hearing this, Xu Qingfeng pondered and analyzed: "The water route is roundabout, so it's unlikely. After all, it failed once.

Moreover, we are training swimming, and this road is not accessible to them.

Since the waterway cannot be used and the ground cannot be attacked by force, we can only do something underground. "

Sun Kui suddenly said after hearing this: "Batalion Commander, do you mean that the Japanese might be digging tunnels?"

"That's right." Thinking of this, Xu Qingfeng became more determined in his analysis and guess.

As a later-generation special forces soldier who is familiar with the war history of our army, Xu Qingfeng has been taught a lot of classic combat tactics related to civil engineering work.

Combined with the current situation of the Sixing Warehouse, it is naturally not difficult to guess the conspiracy that the devil may be brewing.

Sun Kui also thought it was very possible, so he asked for instructions with some excitement: "Batalion Commander, if this is the case, what preparations should we make to prevent it?"

Xu Qingfeng said: "It's easy to deal with the tunnel, immediately organize people to dig a trench about two meters deep along the inner side of the warehouse wall about one to two meters away.

In this way, no matter which direction the Japanese dig in, they will have nowhere to hide.

The amount of work and difficulty we dig this kind of trench is much smaller than that of the devils digging tunnels.

It would be best if we had evacuated before the devils dug through.

If we haven't evacuated after they dug through, then all their efforts have been wasted.

Without further ado, I quickly sent the order to all other companies and platoons except for the brothers who were training to swim, as long as the Japanese did not attack.

Just dig it for me, the sooner you dig it, the better! "

"Yes!" Sun Kui responded excitedly, and ran down quickly.
