How many troops are there in the Japanese Yamazaki Brigade in "Bright Sword"?
When it comes to the Japanese army, what most people can think of is the harm that the Japanese army once brought us, but in the process of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's continuous advancement, we have a more different understanding of this history. Once in the TV series that we are familiar with, Li Yunlong led an independent regiment to approach the Japanese position by digging trenches, and finally wiped out the opposing army with grenades. The praise gained through this battle made countless people admire him. At that time, the unit he led the independent regiment to break through was Yamazaki Brigade of Japan.

So how many officers and men are there in a Japanese Yamazaki brigade, and why is it so difficult to fight?

Of course, any work of art is based on life and has undergone a series of processing. The historical prototype of this Yamazaki Brigade is actually the Okazaki detachment of Japan. In the history of China's combat, this battle is called the battle of Guanjia' an. His commander graduated from the Japanese Army, and the 37th student of the Army NCO School, Okazaki Kensuke, was assisted by Nakazo.

Because this army is formed temporarily and has no formal establishment, they usually call this temporary team a detachment. In this battle, our army also paid a considerable amount of manpower, and the number of people owned by the nine regiments was absolutely overwhelming, but the final result was not as adowa as depicted on TV.

Many people think that the Yamazaki tour in Japan is very difficult to fight. Why is it so hard to fight? In fact, the main reason is that in this special period, there is still a certain gap in the strength comparison between our two sides. Compared with Japanese military strength, China's army has long been limited to technology and firepower.

Under the real historical circumstances, Yamazaki's detachment has only 500 people, but its weapons are relatively advanced, so it can still achieve the scale of Japan's first-class brigade in the face of the attack of the Eighth Route Army. It can be seen that weapons are the most important link in the battle. If you don't do well in this link, even if there are many people, you may fall into a disadvantage.

At that time, it was difficult to fight because although it was a detachment, its firepower had exceeded that of the Eighth Route Army at that time. They have sufficient ammunition and equipment, and even have an absolute advantage in the number of weapons, so they have a greater chance of winning than the Eighth Route Army.

At that time, our army was equipped with a certain number of mountain guns, verbal attack guns and heavy machine guns, basically from some equipment seized on the battlefield before, so it lacked normal maintenance procedures and the smoothest ammunition supply, and could not play a role in long-term operations. Although these guns have improved our combat effectiveness to a certain extent, we will certainly suffer in the long-term battle because the ammunition can't keep up.

At that time, the Okazaki detachment only prepared three mountain guns, but due to the disparity in strength under special circumstances, the Eighth Route Army did not completely annihilate at that time, but occupied the strategic location of Guanjia. Of course, six heavy machine guns were also seized in the battle. But in the end, only half of this small team of 500 people was destroyed, and the others still existed.

Another reason why the battle is difficult is that the Japanese army's training and demonstration are relatively complete, and our Eighth Route Army's equipment strength can't keep up. Coupled with the terrain advantage at that time, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties when it was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

However, the TV series we watched showed that Li Yunlong's 300-member army had 3,600 grenades, and it was with these things that he was able to defeat Yamazaki Brigade in such a unique way. Therefore, looking back at history, we can find that this is an exaggerated artistic expression to promote patriotic feelings.

Although we can see the bravery of our army to some extent, considering that resources and military equipment were so scarce during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, it is impossible to have so many grenades. Therefore, the composition of this artistic treatment also makes us realize that Yamazaki's trip is not as good as we thought, and we can only rely on our own strength to finally occupy an important position.
