Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 834 Release
When the train was "rumbling" to Yuncheng, the independent group in Yuncheng was not idle.

Li Yunlong ordered the first battalion to divide into several directions and launch a continuous feint attack towards the devil's position.

Needless to say, the purpose of the feint attack is to attract the attention of the devils to cover the train, and the other is to keep the devils from being nervous and unable to rest.

However, the effect of the latter is not very good, because the devils in the Zhucun Brigade are all experienced veterans, and this kind of interference will not cause them too much trouble.

As for the devil's gas bombs... Wang Xuexin believes that the devils will not use gas bombs when the Eighth Route Army's offensive force is small and the impact is not very strong. After all, this thing still needs cost and is risky to use. There is no need to use it.

Wang Xuexin is still in Li Yunlong's headquarters, because he feels that the situation on the battlefield has changed.

Wang Xuexin pointed to the map and said: "The artillery used by the devils to fight poison gas bombs is usually the 90-type 3.8mm mortar. This thing has a range of [-] kilometers, which means..."

Li Yunlong immediately understood the meaning of Wang Xuexin's words. He nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "If we want to ensure the safety of Yuncheng and the people, we can't just defeat the enemy like the previous plan! Now In this situation, we must drive the devils to a distance of 3.8 kilometers, and we must hold on, otherwise, their gas bombs will hit Yuncheng City!"

Zhao Gang couldn't help frowning: "However, 3.8 kilometers away...it's a plain, there are bunkers, gun towers, and tunnels in Yuncheng, but there is nothing there. How will we guard it then?"

Li Yunlong sighed, and said: "If you can't keep it, you have to keep it! Otherwise, if the poisonous gas bombs hit the city, it will be over!"

Zhao Gang did not deny this.

In fact, as a political commissar, he certainly knew the importance of the common people. The problem was that all the arrangements made by the Eighth Route Army around Yuncheng were useless, and he was forced to fight against the devils on the plain outside the city. At that time...

Zhao Gang said: "If we stand firm 3.8 kilometers outside the city, wouldn't we fulfill the devil's wish and turn this battle into a war of attrition to strangle our army's vital forces? Moreover, the devil's advantage may be better than fighting Yuncheng." Still big!"

Zhao Gang was right.

Previously, the chief was worried about the devils fighting a war of attrition in Yuncheng, but now the devils forced the war of attrition to move outside the city. This situation is even worse for the Eighth Route Army.

This is not counting the possibility of the devils using poison gas bombs.

Wang Xuexin thought for a while, then said: "Leader, political commissar, I think we can make some preparations for this battle in advance."

"What preparation?" Zhao Gang asked.

"First of all!" Wang Xuexin said: "Since the devils in the No. 9 position can fire poison gas bombs, it means that they have complete anti-gas equipment. We should find a way to hand over a batch for emergencies!"

Zhao Gang pointed his finger in the air, and agreed: "Yes, if we also have gas masks, the devil's poison gas will not be effective, and it will not be so easy to hit our defense line then!"

"Secondly!" Wang Xuexin continued: "The focus of our defense should be the upper hand rather than the front!"

Li Yunlong nodded in agreement. It is meaningless to defend the front when the enemy has poisonous gas bombs. Only the upper hand can give the devil a fatal blow.

But in other words, once the upper hand loses, it means the loss of the entire defense line.

In addition, there is another problem: there are upwind places and upwind places, one layer after another all the way to Luliang Mountain, how to keep every upwind place has become a problem again.

However, if you want to defend Yuncheng, you have to do this, otherwise the final result will be that Yuncheng will become an empty city after all the lives are wiped out.

"Finally!" Wang Xuexin said: "It is still the infantry and artillery coordination. There are 17 field artillery in the city with a range of 18 kilometers, which can effectively provide cover for the defenders outside the city, and can also prevent the devils from approaching without heavy artillery cover! "

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang nodded helplessly.

This point is also problematic. Although the heavy artillery can provide cover, the shells are limited. Although a lot has been seized, the Eighth Route Army cannot produce it by itself.

But there is no other way now, so we can only take one step at a time.

When several people were discussing countermeasures, the communications soldier called out: "Commander, the train has been stopped!"

Li Yunlong was taken aback, and asked, "Where did you stop?"

"It's five kilometers away from here!" The correspondent replied, "It's the devil's transfer station!"

It turned out that Wang Xuexin missed a little calculation.

Although the devils did not dismantle the railway line, it is impossible for the train to drive directly to the front line. It will be easily destroyed by enemy artillery fire, and the supplies may be seized and used by the enemy.

Therefore, the train usually stops at a transfer station five kilometers away from Yuncheng, where the materials are unloaded and then transported to the front line by manpower or cars.

In this way, it was not surprising that the train was stopped at the transfer station, which was the terminus for the devil, and the devil even brought people forward to carry supplies.

At this time, the monk was a little embarrassed.

He originally wanted to break through by force.

Forcing a pass is one way, but the speed of trains in this era is relatively slow... In fact, the speed of the devil's freight train is already considered fast, with a maximum speed of about 50 kilometers per hour. The operating speed also reached 130 kilometers.

If this was a train in the late Qing Dynasty in China, it would travel at 20 to 30 kilometers per hour, which is not as fast as a modern eDonkey.

But 50 kilometers per hour is not enough, at least 4 minutes for five kilometers, the devils only need to call the devils in front of the railway, throw a few grenades and blow up the railway, and it will be over.

Therefore, the monk did not dare to act rashly and could only be anxious on the train.

Fortunately, the puppet platoon leader named Li Changguo was clever. He rolled his eyes, got out of the car and said to the devil, "Taijun, these goods cannot be unloaded here!"

Immediately, an interpreter came up and asked: "Why can't you unload it here, the battlefield is ahead, do you want to drive up to die or what?"

Li Changguo explained in embarrassment: "You think I want to? But... there are 'special shells' in these goods. The superiors have explained that they must be sent to the front line immediately. Can this be delayed?"

The translator's scalp tingled when he heard "special shells".

Not everyone can unload this thing, if one is not careful, the entire transfer station will be ruined.

What's more, the front line was really lively, and the troops urgently needed "special shells" to save their lives, so they explained to the devils with a frightened face, and then let them go.
