Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 378 The Darkness Under the Lights

Under the order of Li Yunlong, the independent regiment urgently built fortifications.

Before, because there was no time to dig trenches, the soldiers just hid in the woods and grass and finished. Fortunately, it was the devil tank troops instead of the field troops.

Tank units are actually not suitable for fighting on such mountainous roads, because tanks can't run away and it's difficult to use their firepower.

The reason why the devils dared to drive tanks into such terrain was actually to bully the Eighth Route Army for not having anti-tank equipment.

To be exact, the devils knew that the Eighth Route Army had rocket launchers for anti-tank use, but they upgraded the tanks and put sandbags on them, thinking that they would not need to worry about it. The car unit becomes the target.

Otherwise, if fighting on open ground...

The Devil Tank relies on its own mobility to always keep a certain distance from the Eighth Route Army, such as 200 meters or 300 meters. At this distance, the rocket launcher cannot hit the tank, but the tank's machine guns and artillery can hit the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army has nothing to do but Passively beaten.

So sometimes tactics and environment can play a decisive role in the outcome of a battle.

If the advanced equipment is used in the wrong place and the wrong tactics are used, the enemy will also be defeated by a large score.

When building the trenches, Wang Xuexin felt more and more wrong.

The devil's chariot units are usually followed by infantry, and they are motorized infantry transported by cars.

The purpose is to quickly rush to the battlefield for reinforcements once there is a war ahead.

It stands to reason that the devil should have arrived here long ago, why is there still no movement at all.

Peeking at Zhu Ziming's side, this kid was looking around in a panic.

Wang Xuexin thought, this guy might be worried about being "accidentally injured" by the devil... Since he has betrayed, he is the devil's person. Since he is the devil's person, how can he ensure that the devil's bullets will not hit him on the battlefield?
This is the distress of the traitor. Bullets don't have eyes, so they are half-hearted and have no intention of fighting.

But there is one thing Wang Xuexin can rest assured for the time being. It is difficult for Zhu Ziming to pass information to the devils in this state. This is not the information age when everyone has a mobile phone, and information can be sent with a text message.

Wang Xuexin didn't pay attention to him anymore, and if he looked at him a few more times, he might be alarmed and aroused his vigilance.

Looking in the direction of the road, Wang Xuexin put away his engineering shovel and walked up the hill with his waist down.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were lying in the grass on the hillside looking at the road on the other side.

Wang Xuexin stepped forward and asked, "Head, is there any movement from the devil?"

Li Yun replied without turning his head: "There is not even a ghost. I wonder why this devil has changed to a vegetarian and moves so slowly?"

"There's something wrong with this!" Wang Xuexin said: "If the devils surrounded the main force of our army, they should have come up long ago. They haven't come yet, and it's probably too late to close the encirclement circle!"

Li Yunlong put away the binoculars and nodded thoughtfully: "The devil's reaction is indeed wrong, but if they are not the main force of our army, what are they doing?"

"Regiment leader!" Wang Xuexin reminded: "Could the devil's target be our independent regiment? The devil even offered you a reward of [-] oceans!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Yunlong raised his head: "My head is worth [-], but your head is worth [-]!"

As he spoke, he picked up the binoculars and planned to continue to observe the road, but then he suddenly seemed to think of something, and he was taken aback and turned back to stare blankly at Wang Xuexin for a long time without speaking.

So Wang Xuexin knew that Li Yunlong wanted to understand the point of the problem.

Sure enough, Li Yunlong then turned around and said to Zhao Gang on the other side: "Old Zhao, do you think the devil's target is us?"

Zhao Gang laughed: "That's impossible! How many of us are there? The two main regiments have at least 5000 people!"

Li Yunlong replied with a sullen face: "What if the devil's target is not troops, but people?"

"What do you mean?" Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong puzzled.

Seeing that Zhao Gang still didn't understand, Li Yunlong simply made it clear: "The devil's target is probably Xiaodongbei!"

"What?" Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong in surprise, and then at Wang Xuexin, his puzzled expression quickly turned into seriousness.

"That makes sense!" Zhao Gang nodded slightly: "We have never thought of this. Since the devils can offer a reward of [-] oceans to Comrade Wang Xuexin, it means that they realize the importance of Comrade Wang Xuexin. position... Then our task is to send ourselves to the door!"

Li Yunlong glared at Wang Xuexin and scolded, "Did you already guess that this is the case?"

"Guess some..." Wang Xuexin said truthfully.

"Guess why you didn't say it sooner?" Li Yunlong said angrily, "I'll wait until this time to hold back a bit of his mother!"

"Team leader!" Wang Xuexin replied with a wry smile, "I told you before that devils 'give up what is easy and take what is difficult', but you are still talking nonsense. I will say it now, can you believe it?"

Li Yunlong was speechless when he said that.

Zhao Gang anxiously interrupted the two words: "Don't say these things are useless. If we are the target of the devil, then the devil must be surrounding us now! I will report to the superior immediately and request to change the task..."

"It's too late!" Li Yunlong interrupted Zhao Gang, turned his head and ordered to the correspondent: "Order the troops to retreat to Dongjing immediately!"

"Yes!" The correspondent responded and conveyed the order.

Zhao Gang still wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he swallowed it abruptly.

What Li Yunlong did was actually another arbitrarily asserted violation of the orders of his superiors.

There are risks in this approach:

What if Li Yunlong guessed wrong?
What if the devil's target is not the independent regiment but the main force?
What if the superior has a bigger strategic plan?
But at the same time, Zhao Gang also thought that time waits for no one. If he really had to report to the superior one by one and then wait for the superior to change the task, I am afraid that the devils have already closed the encirclement circle of the independent regiment.

Considering the rationality of Li Yunlong and Wang Xuexin's analysis of the battle situation, Zhao Gang decided to acquiesce to Li Yunlong's self-assertive behavior.

When Li Yunlong retreated, he cursed in a low voice: "Damn it, there are really spies in our army!"

Li Yunlong is a smart man, of course he knew that if there were no spies in the army, it would be impossible for the devils to grasp the position of the independent regiment so accurately.

But just like before, Li Yunlong's first thought was Sun Ming's Jinsui Army, so he glanced in the direction of Jinsui Army from time to time.

Wang Xuexin felt helpless when he looked at him like that, this is probably the so-called darkness under the lamp!
