Overview:

The Japanese 3rd, 9th and 101st Divisions were attempting to cross Wusong Creek to establish a line approximately 800 meters south of the creek. Chinese Colonel Yan Yinggao was observing the developing action from his reserve position as the Japanese attacked the 3rd Battalion, surrounding Chinese forces in Tangheizhai. Just as the Japanese were encircling the village, Yan received orders to reinforce the 3rd Battalion. On the march, Yan observed sixty Japanese troops in a column formation that was advancing on Tangheizhai. From the village, a few stouthearted Chinese soldiers mad a desperate last stand.

2023-07-23(A) Jobbo Fett vs JobboFett Japanese winA spread out defense in the south and a opportunistic setup in the north for the Chinese was betrayed by an early break of the MMC holding the only Chinese MMG from an average shot right out of the gate. White Phosphorus didn't play much of a role and I opted out of using smoke. Despite this, the Chinese couldn't make any headway and had half their OoB break by their 2nd turn. With some additional PFPh shots, I felt the Chinese simply couldn't secure a win due to the high losses. For fun, I kept playing and started aggressively banzai charging, with, through a series of KIAs via Melee, turned the tables on the attacker. Short, fast, this is a nice scenario that offers an interesting problem for both sides. Hard not to recommend.
2020-06-26(A) Andy Bagley vs Richard Dagnall Chinese winNot entirely sure what I could have done better to win this one. My units from the South made good progress and cleared to village south of the stream by game end, but got no further (might have done if my mortar had got its WP shot). The real failure was north of the stream though: my HIP squad + LMG got two shots a 6 down two, both of which missed. The Chinese dare-death squad then charged in, surviving and 8 down 3 shot from my other squad + leader, and other Chinese then followed him into CC. I tried controlling the bridge by going into the gully underneath it, but the Chines simply followed me into the gully and forced me out. Very well played by Richard.
