Bright Sword: Hosting the independent regiment, all become special forces

Chapter 285 The Eighth Route Army Begins to Attack

The traitor hurriedly lay down on the ground, and even the soldiers began to lose their vigilance, the sound of the artillery was too close.

"Where to shoot! Where to shoot?"

"Listen! It sounds like a grenadier! East?!"

Li Daben interrupted loudly: "No, it's the west side, go up and have a look!"

Li Dabenshi, Hu Sai, and Duan Peng rushed to the commanding heights quickly, observing the past along the sound of the guns.

In the distance, at the same position as before, the group of scouts didn't know what to think, and launched a tentative attack on the gun tower, which provoked the attack of the grenadier.

The gunfire had stopped, and the three of them put down the binoculars in their pockets.

"Damn, whose subordinate is this? Why are you so fierce? Could it be from two special operations brigades?"

"Probably not, there is no one who scouts in broad daylight, it's like crazy, don't care, since you bumped into it, you can't ignore it! Copy the guy, go help!"

Duan Peng left a platoon of soldiers behind, and led the rest of the soldiers to support them not far away.

Li Daben and Hu Sai took the remaining platoon fighters to watch over the puppet soldiers who had just joined the Eighth Route Army.

"Captain! They are fighting in front, so we can't watch here, can we?"

"Yes, Captain, isn't it just a blockhouse? With so many of us, why can't we build a blockhouse?"

"Yes, Commander, this is a good opportunity to make meritorious service. Maybe the Eighth Route Army will appreciate us even more."

Hu Sai was a little moved after hearing this, and turned to look at his friend Li Daben.

Seeing this, Li Daben sneered and said, "Are you really going to fight the gun tower? I've said my ugly words before. If you are afraid of death, what should you do?"

"Who is not afraid of death, you said that!"

"That's right, if we have the heart, we can also help others!"

Li Daben shook his head: "No, wait here!"

"I want to pee!"

"Fix it on the spot! Grandma, why are you doing so much shit? Are you a fucking Japanese spy?"

When the soldier of the puppet army heard this, he was immediately annoyed: "Fart, Li Datou! You are on the horse. I'm sorry, commander, I'm a little excited."

Li Daben was not angry at all, and waved his hand: "Just spread it here, don't smoke other comrades!"

Duan Peng's actions were quick. As soon as he rushed to the front, he received some retreating wounded and asked quickly, "Which part are you from?"

"We are from the Lingqiu County Brigade, and we are on a reconnaissance mission. I didn't expect these devils to shoot directly at the people who approached, and even used mortars!"

Upon hearing this, Duan Peng said viciously: "Fire cover!"

Some soldiers used rifles to shoot indiscriminately in the direction of the blockhouse. As for them going to attack the blockhouse in broad daylight, it was purely to make themselves feel uncomfortable.

After rescuing the remaining two wounded soldiers, the reconnaissance company also slightly injured a soldier.

The soldiers were taken back to the team, and the reorganized puppet army team embarked on the journey again.

Towards evening, Duan Peng and other talents returned to the station. It is really that the physical fitness of this group of puppet troops is too poor.

After Zhang Wei heard that almost all of them were brought back, he also came from the war room to the entrance of the village where he was stationed.

Duan Peng and others came up to greet them, and Li Daben reported: "It's a good thing that the commander did not disgrace his life. Hu Sai and the others are mostly willing to accept the reorganization, and some troublemakers and spies were also killed by us."

"Also, there may be some problems among this batch of teams. I suggest that the recruits should fire guns first, and not fire bullets. After checking their identities, then..."

Zhang Wei nodded: "Good job, what happened to these wounded?"

"When the Lingqiu County Brigade was conducting makeup reconnaissance, it was attacked by the Japanese army, which is why this happened."

"Oh? You mean, even if you are dressed as civilians, you will be attacked when you pass by the bayonet and the gun tower?"

"Yes, Chief, there is a main road near the blockhouse. I would never do this before, but I don't know why the blockhouse has become more vigilant now."

"Okay, I know, go and treat the wound again, don't get infected, go down and rest first, the troops are about to leave!"

But the devil suddenly couldn't get in touch with Hu Sai and the others. Those who didn't know thought that Guangfa County was gone, and immediately asked Guangling County to send troops to investigate.

As a result, nothing else was found in this investigation, and they were directly caught by the marching troops of the Eighth Route Army, and the entire team was wiped out without even hearing a sound.

After doing this, Yue Jiangyou, the head of the 41st Division, really panicked. What happened?Is it possible that the Eighth Route Army has begun to attack the northern Shanxi area?

Didn't receive the information that there was a troop gathering, why did a puppet army disappear so silently?

The reinforcements sent by Guangling County are gone, which is really strange.

Yue Jiangyou really had no choice but to issue a combat order to all the strongholds to stay put and not to go out.

Later, the incident in Guangfa County was reported to the North China Front Army Command.

After all, the loss of a county is not a small matter.

But at this time, Ningji Okamura was haggard, and his expression changed slightly: "There are a large number of unknown armed men in Guangfa Guangling County, and even Guangfa County has lost contact?"

"Hayi!" The adjutant suddenly lowered his head, and immediately asked in confusion: "General, there are only a few troops in the Eighth Route Army that can actively attack the county town, but there is no such main force as the Eighth Route Army in northern Shanxi!"

The information sent by Yue Jiangyouzhen is quite particular, and a sentence was added at the end of the telegram, which has not been verified.

The so-called unverified means that the intelligence is likely to be wrong.

But what happened in Guangfa County has already happened.

"There is an old saying in China, it is better to believe what you have than to trust what you don't have. The maneuverability of the special column is comparable to our cavalry regiment. It has not received any information from the special column for a week. It is very likely that they have sent troops to the north. The target is Datong County."

Speaking of this, Okamura Ningji then asked: "Has the aviation unit detected any useful information recently?"

"Unfortunately, the general, our air force, has not received any useful information."

Neiji Okamura rubbed his temples, and said tiredly: "After all, it is in China's territory, and the local people can also help the Eighth Route Army troops hide, and the sky can't explain anything."

"Compared to other troops, the Eighth Route Army is very difficult to deal with, and the troops under Zhang Wei and Li Yunlong are not only powerful in combat, but also extremely cunning! Order, Yue Jiang Youzhen, the troops belonging to the 41st Division are not allowed to go out at will, and have to stick to it!"

"Hayi!" The adjutant bowed his head suddenly, and praised: "The commander is far-sighted and admired by his subordinates. As long as we wipe out the Jinsui Army in the southeast of Shanxi, the Jinsui Army can't go south, but can only go north to squeeze the base of the Eighth Route Army."

"At that time, we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight!"

Neiji Okamura waved his hand and said: "Order, all ministries should step up preparations for food, and the autumn harvest will be here soon, and a telegram will be sent to the base camp to ask them to redeploy reserve soldiers and even recruit recruits to re-form the Fourth Mixed Brigade as soon as possible. The Ninth Mixed Brigade."

"Also, order the entire Taitai Railway to strengthen defenses. Once you find enemy movements, report them immediately, and don't rush to chase them!"

"Hay!"

After Yuejiang Youzhen received the order, he immediately ordered all the garrison troops and field troops under his command to be ready for battle at any time.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army took advantage of the darkness to quickly complete the combat deployment.

Because the scheduled combat time has not yet been reached, the soldiers are all hidden, and the battle plan needs to launch an attack in advance, so these troops attacking distant strongholds marched first.

The troops behind will only act tonight, and they also need to use the night to approach and shorten the attack distance to facilitate the attack.

Zhang Wei did not participate in combat operations, but was in the command headquarters. In this position, many battles did not need to be done by himself, but Zhang Wei couldn't bear the loneliness, and sometimes he would personally lead the charge.

When you reach the position of regimental commander, you need to take command instead of being a commando captain.

Another day and night passed, and in the early morning, the cadres in charge of command all over the place checked their pocket watches, because they needed to launch attacks at the same time, so that they could not beat the 41st Division's hands.

"Check the watch!"

The regiment headquarters in the two places were benchmarking, and after the time was checked, all the strongholds were launched to launch the most tearful attack.

Yue Jiangyou really happened to be on duty at the headquarters, not to mention that his phone was ringing off the hook, telegrams from various counties and towns were constantly being sent to the headquarters.

Yue Jiangyou was really panicked: "What the hell is going on! Why is the attack report flying like snowflakes?"

"idiot!"

Yuejiang Youzhen slapped the desk angrily, he had done everything he could, and now he could only hope that the defenders everywhere could withstand the attack of the Eighth Route Army.

Although the special column at this stage is not considered rich, it does not even carry weapons such as field artillery.

But there is no shortage of support weapons such as mortars.

On the battlefields everywhere, artillery fire roared, and the soldiers quickly attacked the stronghold with the help of the cover of night and the support of artillery fire.

In the three counties, the battle started almost at the same time.

That night, the little devils in Guangling County stayed awake all night, and they were all vigilant, and entered the city wall and the outer defensive positions.

Because they don't know what's going on with the gunfire everywhere, not to mention that there are only three squadrons of defenders left in the county, not even a brigade.

Maybe it will be attacked by the Eighth Route Army again.

The commander of Guangling County, Xiaomi Chuanzhongzuo, stood on the city wall frowning, using a telescope to observe the surrounding situation through the bright sky.

"Your Excellency Zhong Zuo, do you want to attack the county seat? There are guns and guns everywhere."

Mi Chuanzhongzuo nodded, then shook his head: "Not necessarily, but we must not let our guard down."

Soon the sky began to brighten, and the sound of guns in the distance gradually stopped.

Zhongzuo Xiaomi Chuan and others were still staring at the position until noon.

"Lieutenant Commander, are they going to attack?"

Chuanzhong Zuo Xiaomi shook his head: "Now I have no clue at all, so I sent a report to your Excellency, the head of the division, asking for tactical guidance."

"Hay!"

Not to mention that Yuejiang Yuzhen of the 41st Division did not understand what was going on, Neiji Okamura of the North China Front Army Command also had to drag his exhausted body and stay up all night.

The strongholds in the three counties were removed at the same time, and Guangfa County also fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army.

The No.40 First Division could not even gather troops, because it was very likely to be attacked by the Eighth Route Army troops during the march.

Zhang Wei had reported the battle plan a long time ago, but after fighting all day, the devils didn't move at all.

In the combat room, Zhang Wei paced back and forth, and Xing Zhiguo, who was next to him, persuaded: "Commander, don't leave, I'm dizzy!"

"Old Xing, what do you think the devils are up to? How come they haven't moved at all, can you really bear it?"

"What should I do if I can't help it? Is it possible to come out to fight with us? We can kill them by walking the dog!"

Zhang Wei gritted his teeth: "Give Heihu and Langya an order to harass the Japanese defenders in the two counties without interruption. The Artillery Regiment and the Anti-aircraft Artillery Battalion are divided into two groups, ready to take down the county."

"Little Huzi! Go, call the head of the cavalry regiment."

"Yes!"

Xing Zhiguo asked suspiciously: "Commander, are you not in such a hurry? If we pull out the county seat now, the devils are likely to counterattack! You must know that the Manchurian and Mongolian garrison troops have also gone south to fight before, and they are likely to be besieged by the enemy. !0"

"It doesn't matter! Lao Xing, you should first find out the basics of this group of recruits, and try to finish drinking tea within a month. I guess this winter, the devils will launch an unprecedented large-scale attack. At that time, we can There is no chance!"

"Okay, then I'll go!"

As soon as Xing Zhiguo left, Zhang Dabiao said excitedly: "We are going to fight again, Commander, are we going to take these two counties this time?"

"Otherwise? Since the devil doesn't want to move, let's let him move. I don't believe it. The 41st Division can really stay!"

The head of the headquarters was also confused at this time, why did the devil not move?

So many strongholds have been pulled out, even hundreds of people have been lost, and there is no retaliation?

"Tell me, what is this little devil planning? How can he be so patient?"

The chief of staff laughed: "Boss, do you think this little devil is powerless!"

"If the devils are so weak, then it will be easy! Order the troops to launch a full-scale attack along the railway line. Isn't the arsenal just resumed production and lacks high-quality steel? Let's send them some!"

"Yes!"

Following the boss's order, the troops in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area and the Northwest Shanxi base area immediately began to prepare

After Li Yunlong received the order, he immediately handed over the task of breaking the attack to the two regiments of Ding Wei and Kong Jie.

Li Yunlong also immediately thought of his two good comrades in this kind of good job where he could eat meat.

I don't know if Kong Jie and Ding Wei had planned for this matter long ago.

On the same day, a battle plan was drawn up and handed over to Lao Li Yunlong and others.

Li Yunlong didn't even look at it, and agreed to the battle plan with a wave of his hand, so the mighty plan for the third attack on the Zhengtai Railway began immediately.

On the third day, the soldiers who had been deployed quietly waited for the general of the night.

This battle was originally just a tentative attack to find out the intention of the Japanese army, so it became bigger and bigger.
