Chapter 940： Japanese tactics one

In short, Akiyama Koko believes that it is not too difficult to defeat such an opponent. Except for the size of the Russians, the Russian army is actually not too good, but now, although it has not formally competed with Germany. People played against each other, but Qiu Shan Haogu already felt the opponent's extraordinary.

"From the sand table, the Germans' defense lines are almost integrated. There is no distinction between the first and second lines of defense. This makes the offensive feel very uncomfortable. There are also these key support points, although there is no difference between the support points. All offensive roads are completely blocked, but the gap between each other is very narrow. If these support points are not broken, our troops will move very slowly." Akiyama said.

To be honest, it is not difficult to make the line of defense thicker and more lines of defense. Anyone with the time, labor, and materials can do it well. Isn't it just digging holes and building houses? What's so difficult? It’s not difficult to choose some suitable areas to set up support points, preset some pockets, etc. This kind of thing belongs to a commander with a little experience, and you can see it and others can see it. This level of defense The set level is higher than the initial one, but the high level is also limited.

The layout of the German general on the opposite side has surpassed the former. According to Akiyama, the outermost line of defense is indeed very ordinary, a very simple warning point, and then the warning line. But after arriving at the main position, the problem came. The several lines of defense in Germany were connected to each other with lateral traffic trenches, turning the originally scattered lines of defense into a whole. These appropriately arranged lateral traffic trenches make the support of the troops behind them very smooth, which means that even if the opponent's troops break through the first line of defense and have not stabilized the breakthrough, they will be counterattacked by the second line of defense.

Such a system of defense is already a headache, but what makes Qiushan feel uncomfortable most is that, except for those bunkers that are obviously hard to destroy after N times of reinforcement, he can't find Germans too. Many firepower points. According to the information provided by the French, the firepower of the German machine gun is not weaker than that of the French army. In other words, there is even more than 9 MG light machine guns. However, it was not marked on the intelligence and sand table. After questioning the French Legion, the French also said they did not know. Because some situations in this line of defense are different from others.

The so-called enemy is invisible. What you can see, no matter how terrible you are, you can always have some defenses and some countermeasures, but now, it doesn’t seem to work. Akiyama Koko can figure out that the opponent’s machine gun team will definitely change positions frequently, which will give offense. Fang brought a lot of trouble, and the Germans undoubtedly have a great advantage in the mobility of firepower. In terms of artillery. According to intelligence analysis, the small and medium-caliber mortars of the Germans were scattered to the company level, while the large-caliber mortars and barrel artillery appeared to be concentrated. This is undoubtedly taking advantage of the flexibility of light mortars and the concentrated firepower of long-range artillery.

At least on the surface. As for what will happen if you really fight, then you really can't tell. In short, a superficial analysis, Qiu Shan Hao Gu feels that the opposite is difficult.

"Who is the commander on the opposite side? Junai-kun?" Akiyama asked, rubbing his stupid temple.

"It should be Albrecht, Duke of Württemberg. Of course, the opponent is the commander of a group army. As for the commander of the two divisions, if the information is correct, it should be Hans Von of the 15th Army. Major General Seckett, the opponent came from a nobleman, and his father is a general. He is a military family." Teruichi said.

"That's it? Are there any tactical characteristics?" Akiyama's brows frowned slightly, and he was very dissatisfied with such simple intelligence.

"How do you say? According to the French, the German military training is relatively solid. Generally speaking, it can be divided into two categories. One is Prussian-style tactics. Most Germans belong to this category. They are proficient in artillery and infantry. The other is the Bavarian style, the latter is more terrifying, their prince is a tactical genius, successfully combined tanks, artillery, aircraft and infantry together, like a cocktail! Then launch you An unstoppable offensive. The Russians failed, and the French and the British were equally beaten." Teruichi said.

"Well, we are not familiar with the German tactics, especially the Germans now. Then we will fight it according to our own tactics. The war will always have to accumulate experience and lessons, although the cost may be a bit high!" Qiu Shan rubbed his face, and said with a refreshing spirit.

Although I don’t know what the Germans are thinking, Akiyama still knows the hardware of his army. Although the various equipment and weapons provided by the French make the Japanese feel extravagant, in fact, the overall level of equipment is still low. At the average level of the French army, let alone compared with the Germans on the opposite side, and judging from the current situation, the German on the opposite side does not seem to be an ace army. But if you want to fight firepower, you can't beat it.

"From the perspective of troops, our personnel is twice as large as theirs! But there is not much advantage in firepower We only have 32 105MM howitzers, and a German division has at least 24. Ours Although some gunners have experienced the Russo-Japanese War, the situation has completely changed now. Most gunners have no experience in attacking targets 7 kilometers away. In the absence of supporting firepower, they rely solely on the bravery of infantry to attack the enemy’s thunder. Fields, barbed wire, trenches, and machine guns constitute a line of defense. That is absolutely terrifying."

"Since the Germans have the advantage of day artillery and a large number of automatic firearms, so good, we can just abolish their advantages? So I decided to launch a night attack!" Akiyama's idea is very simple and very good. There is an effect, that is to directly choose night attacks!

Although night attacks can be troublesome, in general, there are few night battles in the battlefield of World War I, especially large-scale division-level attacks. The night vigilance of both sides is more to defend against small-scale harassment by the other side. The large-scale night attack also started fighting at dawn. With mental arithmetic and unintentional, this is originally an advantage. In addition, Akiyama thinks that the Japanese army may be inferior to its opponents in artillery, infantry firepower and tactics, but at least one thing is absolutely the world’s best, and hand-to-hand combat is at least worthwhile. Right!
