"Taierzhuang Great Victory" Our army sacrificed 50,000 people, and you may not believe the number of Japanese casualties
In the war against foreign enemies, many soldiers went to the battlefield and never came down, the war was particularly difficult, in front of the problem of either rising up to fight or the destruction of the whole country, we have no choice, so it is impossible not to die in a war. The victory of every battle in our country's war is exchanged for countless blood, but after all, fighting a war is a two-sided matter, and a large number of soldiers on our side have been damaged in the battle, and the enemy will also have it, so how big is the gap between the enemy and us in terms of the ratio of war losses?
However, now that our country has been at peace for a long time, the country is rich and the people are strong, and there are no good cases for us to study, so we may as well exchange the time for China, which is still in the period of the War of Resistance Against Japan. This period was a high-frequency period of war in our country, and the fighting lasted for several years from the moment the Japanese stepped into Chinese soil. However, Japan came prepared after all, and although it was a little arrogant, how could it dare to say harsh words that swallowed up our country without a little confidence. Their advanced armaments, in the hands of well-trained soldiers, have really become an unrivaled opponent for our soldiers.
Although the number is far smaller than that of our own army, it does not occupy the abundant resource supply. The Japanese army still pulled a hole from our country, and today we will not talk about unilateral massacres, which have no comparative significance, but talk about frontal combat when both sides are ready. The battle of Taierzhuang can be regarded as a classic not only because this battle is the first and greatest victory since the war against Japan in our country, but also because the military deployment plan in this battle is very mature and properly used.
At that time, in order to prevent Japan's wolf ambitions to continue to kill more innocent people, our country invested in taierzhuang in 1938, and several legions from all sides participated in the war in total, reaching nearly 300,000, which was already a very frightening number. The Japanese side also saw our determination to defend this place, and also invested a total of more than 50,000 troops in 4 divisions and regiments, just by looking at the comparison of the numbers, it may feel that the Battle of Taierzhuang should be fought extremely easily. After all, the number of the two sides is not proportional at all, our side is 6 times that of the enemy, and it feels completely difficult.
However, this is not the case, this battle can be said to be very difficult, fought for nearly a month, and when the battlefield is cleaned up, the whole land is red. After the defeat of the Japanese army, there were still more than 30,000 troops, leaving the bodies of 20,000 Japanese soldiers on the battlefield and the bodies of 50,000 people of our army. But one thing that must be made clear is that we are not only the defensive side, but also the victorious side. From ancient times to the present, it has always been more dead and wounded on the attackers who do not occupy the terrain. However, due to the gap in equipment, our army used a two-to-one battle loss ratio to win this crucial victory!
At that time, when the battle began, it was not that the Japanese side only had the ability to kill 50,000 people, but that more troops were restricting the actions of the Japanese army in different places and aspects, so only a small part of the 50,000 people invested by the Japanese army participated in the frontal battle. The rest were left as a guarantee for the defense of stealing camps, and the Japanese side was not only good at large-scale advances, but also good at squad-style individual combat, which were small in number but not weak in combat effectiveness. There is no support from troops, but the mobility and concealment are much higher, and it is common for a dozen people to kill a company of our army.
Therefore, the victory in this war was mainly won by the rational use of tactics, which restricted a large number of Japanese troops with combat strength, which was the key to the smooth implementation of the war. However, even so, this battle was also the smallest loss ratio in the Sino-Japanese confrontation. It also dealt a blow to the invincible momentum of the enemy invasion, and the corpses of as many as 20,000 Japanese troops were the most powerful illustration of the victory. In the same way, we should also remember this history of blood and flesh, and pay tribute to the heroes who died in the War of Resistance!
