The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 1034 Li Yunlong: I’m not willing to give in (second update)

The independent brigade headquarters of the Sixth Army Division in the Wing.

Li Yunlong was frowning and studying the battle map on the table.

The Japanese army has withdrawn to the fourth blockade built around the iron wall. If I can't think of tactics to deal with them tonight, at dawn tomorrow, the little devils' mopping up troops will evacuate the base area under their noses. In the future It will be difficult to deal with them again.

Li Yunlong is the kind of person who refuses to admit defeat. He is particularly good at seizing opportunities and has a very keen sense of smell on the battlefield. From the bottom of his heart, he does not want to miss this good opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the Japanese army again.

But the opponent is too strong, and the independent brigade in his hand is too weak...

Almost all the tactics and tactics that come to mind are like eggs and stones, and there is no bargain.

The chief of staff on the side was also thinking about ways to solve the situation. His brows were furrowed and his mind was in a mess. He also had no ideas. He looked at Li Yunlong with helpless analysis on his face.

"Captain..."

"The little devil is escorted by plane during the day..."

"We only have this few troops left, and we can't withstand too much consumption..."

"The only chance to gain advantage from the Japanese army is to attack at night..."

"But they clung to the fourth blockade, built another defensive fortification based on the original station, and deployed three lines of defense around the station."

"Nearly a hundred mountain field guns and heavy artillery are also deployed in the station to launch artillery counterattacks at any time against the Eighth Route Army attacking them."

"Thousands of little Japanese infantry should not be underestimated..."

"Not to mention its strong combat effectiveness...almost every infantry brigade is equipped with two mortar squadrons and two heavy machine gun squadrons...the close combat firepower is extremely powerful."

"We want troops but we don't have troops...the artillery strength is not even [-]% as good as the little devils...in terms of mountain artillery and large-caliber heavy artillery, it is not even [-]% of them..."

"No matter how we attack, we will hit the little devil's gun and seek death..."

"I think this battle should be forgotten..."

Li Yunlong was silent for a long time and then continued: "I know that this battle is difficult to fight, and there is even no chance of winning, but I can't bear to watch the little devils evacuate the base area from under our noses..."

"It would be great if the heavy artillery regiment was by our side..."

"With the strength of the heavy artillery regiment, maybe we still have the strength to compete with the Japanese retreating troops."

The chief of staff shook his head and replied: "The key to the problem is that the heavy artillery regiment is not around, not even the field artillery battalion directly under the brigade headquarters and the mountain artillery companies directly under several regiments."

"Even if we temporarily mobilize our troops now, it's too late."

"Mountain artillery and heavy artillery can only march on roads. In order to prevent us from chasing them, the Japanese troops in the rear used explosives to destroy many traffic arteries and necessary roads during their retreat."

"Our troops cannot build roads in the daytime despite Japanese bombings. If we really need to move the heavy artillery regiments and field artillery battalions to the front line, we can only march while building roads."

"It's already dawn before we get to the battlefield."

"The Japanese army cannot retreat and quickly evacuate the base area and escape right under our noses."

Having said this, the chief of staff comforted Li Yunlong again: "Brigade commander..."

"We have killed enough Japanese in this counter-mopping up, not even a little bit less."

"The top priority now is to preserve our strength, return to the base area as soon as possible, restore our strength, and prepare for the next attack on Tianjin Wharf."

Li Yunlong had a look of helplessness on his face. He was about to nod and give up his inner thoughts when the radio operator suddenly ran towards him. Before he could stand still, he reported excitedly: "Report to the brigade commander..."

"Urgent call from the divisional headquarters..."

"We are required to immediately assemble troops and move towards Longkou Town, preparing to encircle and annihilate the retreating Japanese troops stationed there." "Longkou Town..." Li Yunlong quickly turned his attention to the map.

As soon as they found the specific location of Longkou Town, the chief of staff on the side analyzed with shock: "Brigadier Commander..."

"Could the military division headquarters have made a mistake..."

"I know where the Japs are stationed in Longkou Town."

"There are more than 7000 Japs stationed there tonight. Originally, the Japanese army built two lines of defense in Longkou Town. After the Japanese retreating troops arrived there, they temporarily repaired another line of defense, making it three lines of defense."

"According to the reconnaissance force report, the Japanese army has deployed a reinforced brigade at each line of defense, equipped with two to three mortar squadrons, two to three heavy machine gun squadrons, and one to two rapid-fire artillery squadrons. The blocking firepower is very powerful."

"There are nearly a hundred mountain field guns and heavy artillery in the station that can provide artillery support to the defenders at any time."

"To attack Longkou Town with the few remaining troops of the Independent Brigade is tantamount to committing suicide..."

"How about we respond to the regional headquarters...and ask the commander to temporarily terminate this battle plan that is almost impossible to win."

Li Yunlong shook his head and replied: "Kong Jie is not an impulsive person."

"There is Huang Yu watching next to him."

"Now that they have made the decision to attack Longkou Town, there is at least a [-]% chance of winning this battle."

"Call me quickly..."

"These two people must have a trump card that I don't know about..."

Li Yunlong glanced at ten lines and quickly read the entire contents of the telegram. Then he smiled, patted his head, and said regretfully: "Huang Yu's head turns quickly. Why didn't I think of this army..."

"I visited this unit several times before the counter-mopping up, but when it came time to use them, I actually forgot about them. It's so inappropriate."

"chief of staff……"

"Assemble the troops immediately..."

"I will move all the troops from the Independent Brigade below me who are still able to go to the battlefield and march quickly to Longkou Town."

"We have to reach our destination before three o'clock in the morning."

"Bring all the mountain artillery, infantry artillery, mortars, and supporting artillery shells we have."

"I can't do enough."

"As long as the more than 7000 little Japs stationed in Longkou Town can be severely damaged, the Independent Brigade will have no problem destroying all their wealth."

Wing Central Sixth Army Division Headquarters.

Kong Jie is drawing something on a huge combat map.

Several combat staff members gathered around to help. The telephone on the table not far away kept ringing. Every time he received a call, the telephone soldier ran to Kong Jie to report the news he had received. The combat staff members also marked the relevant messages. onto the map.

As time passes, the line connecting Longkou Town to Chenjiazhuang Airport has been filled with marks. Each mark represents a troop. When the time is up, they will light a huge bonfire at the marked location to guide the flight group. .

After another phone report was completed, Huang Yu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief: "Commander..."

"The route from Chenjiazhuang to the battlefield has been prepared."

"Because this area is completely within the scope of our base area, in order to avoid accidents, I asked the local troops and guerrillas to prepare a bonfire every three or four kilometers. Even if a plane deviates from the route in the air, it will be easy to face the dense bonfires on the ground. Return to the correct route quickly and complete the bombing mission."
