In 1939, the Japanese invaders attempted to further threaten the scope of the New Fourth Army’s activities in the south of the Yangtze River by increasing the deployment of troops.
In order to combat the arrogance of the Japanese invaders, Su Yu began brewing a campaign against the Japanese invaders. This battle was famous. The battle of "Surprise Officer Doumen" was won at a very small price, which greatly encouraged the anti-Japanese morale of officers and soldiers and the people in Jiangnan.
Surprise officer Doumen is also the first long-distance attack new tactics used by the New Fourth Army
Next, let’s review the military command ability of God of War Su Yu:
1. Analysis of the enemy and me
In the beginning of 1939, the Japanese army suddenly increased its troops and strengthened the force of Nanjing Zhenjiang. For zone control, the Japanese army constructed the first blockade based on the existing traffic lines, and then built many bunkers within the blockade line in an attempt to reduce the range of operations of the Jiangnan New Fourth Army through this blockade method.
In order to clarify the deployment of the Japanese army as soon as possible, the New Fourth Army sent a lot of intelligence personnel to collect the Japanese army's intelligence, and then the Japanese army's deployment intelligence was continuously sent to Su Yu. Su Yu stood in front of the map, carefully analyzed the deployment of the enemy, and marked the enemy’s location in detail on the map, so as to know himself and the enemy
2. On-site survey of terrain
Su Yu continued to survey the terrain through a telescope to obtain more accurate geographic information , Provide more accurate information for subsequent battle deployments, make use of all favorable terrain, use it for my own use, and increase the living space of the troops.
3. After determining the location of the attack
Su Yu's detailed survey terrain, he began to think about which place to attack the Japanese army, and finally Su Yu decided to go unconventional and chose to strike in the central zone where the enemy thought the safest. The enemy thought the safest place, often This is where the enemy is most lax. The Guandoumen was right in the center of the enemy.
Guandoumen is a small town located on the outskirts of Wuhu. When the Japanese invaded Wuhu, they immediately occupied Wuhu’s airport. Guandoumen was very close to the airport. There was a river from south to north. The town is divided into two sides. There are many river networks around the town.
In order to protect the airfield, the Japanese army built tight fortifications on both sides of the river. Three layers of barbed wire and barriers were placed. The Japanese army built turrets with horns in the west, south and north. They cooperated and were difficult to attack. . It is a very important military position. Z2z
4. How to attack
Su Yu pointed out: If we want to fight in the enemy's central area, we must take a quick fight, give the enemy no time to react, quickly evacuate, and we must take a sudden attack to achieve this goal
5. Before the war Exercise
This battle is the first long-distance attack of the New Fourth Army. In order to ensure the success of the surprise attack, Su Yu asked the troops to conduct pre-war exercises. According to the current terrain of the official Doumen and the deployment of Japanese troops, they were targeted. Conduct exercises, discover and solve problems continuously through exercises, and strive to achieve victory with the least cost.
6. Long-distance raid operations
In the early morning of January 18, 1938, Su Yu led the troops and braved the cold wind and began a long-distance raid. In order to ensure the safety of the troops, the troops traveled northward for 25 kilometers in rain, and then concealed their actions. On the morning of January 19th, the troops took two boats. After midnight, the troops interspersed to a village that was only 40 kilometers away from Guandoumen. On the morning of January 20th, Su Yu summoned the commanders above the platoon to reconfirm their attack targets. And the battle mission, to ensure that the battle is over within 20 minutes, and quickly withdraw. At 5 o'clock that evening, the troops continued to advance to Tingtou Town. In order to ensure the safety of the main force's flanks, the cover troops were responsible for the Japanese strongholds in Qingshan and Huangchi. The main attacking troops continued to advance towards the Guandoumen. At 2 o'clock in the morning of January 21, the main force was less than 10 kilometers away from Guandoumen.At that time, a river had to be passed in front of him. Taking into account that the total attack time was already very close, Su Yu ordered to change to the land to march quickly to ensure that he arrived at the designated location on time. At about 4 a.m., the troops reached Guandoumen less than 2 kilometers away. After the commanders determined their respective combat missions, the main force encircled the Japanese stronghold in Guandoumen in two directions.
7. Su Yu issued an attack order
By the dawn of dawn, Su Yu ordered his troops to attack, the charge rang, and the sound of gunfire was deafening. The main force broke through the enemy's barbed wire and rushed into the stronghold. The puppet army and the Japanese army in the stronghold have become prisoners of our army before they can figure out what happened. With the enemy not reacting, Su Yu quickly led the troops to occupy the headquarters of the puppet army and cut off their contact with their superiors.
From the beginning to the end of the battle, it only took minutes to end the battle, plus the time to clear the battlefield, less than 20 minutes . When the Japanese reinforcements arrived, Su Yu led the New Fourth Army to evacuate safely.
After the victory of the Doumen Raid Attack, the New Fourth Army wiped out more than 300 Japanese and puppet troops. The New Fourth Army had no casualties. Only three people received minor injuries and seized a large number of rifles, short guns, machine guns, hand grenades and other military supplies. The surprise attack officer Su Yu commanded by Su Yu gave us a sense of the commanding talent of Su Yu. It was a classic case of fighting against the Japanese invaders. It effectively attacked the arrogance of the Japanese army and aroused the morale of the people in Jiangnan and the New Fourth Army. Tribute to the heroes! Peace is hard to come by, cherish the moment
