The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

"The mountain cannons are all going to fight the devil's tank squadron. What about the two artillery battalions brought by the devil? It's impossible to use mortars to fight against their mountain cannons, right?" Kong Jie continued to ask.

Huang Yu followed Kong Jie's words and said, "Commander, you are really right."

"I do intend to use mortars to kill the Devil Mountain Field Artillery Brigade."

"This thing sounds a bit far-fetched, but it doesn't mean it can't be done."

"After determining the exact location of the pocket formations that eliminated the Japanese tank brigade, we can roughly determine the position of the artillery brigade when the returning tank brigade was attacked based on the situation of the Japanese army."

"Including the seizures, we have eighty or ninety mortars in hand, if not a hundred."

"Take out sixty doors and divide them into two."

"Arrange them about two kilometers away from the road. After the Japanese chariot brigade is attacked, it will immediately lock on to the Devil Artillery Brigade."

"At that time, the mountain artillery brought by the Japanese army was still parked on the road and had not been erected."

"As long as our artillery fire is strong enough and ruthless enough, even if we can't destroy the mountain artillery brought by the Japanese army, we can still severely injure the little devil gunners, preventing them from getting close to the mountain artillery covered by artillery fire, and they will not be able to participate in the battle."

"The remaining mortars cover the infantry and tank units to attack the Japanese light infantry head-on."

"The two cavalry squadrons responsible for reconnaissance tasks are handed over to the two cavalry battalions."

"They haven't really fought against the Japanese cavalry since they were formed."

"Although the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is not as good as that of the little devil's cavalry, they are better equipped than the Japanese army and should be able to eat them."

"Pa..." Li Yunlong slammed his fist on the table in front of him, his eyes were shining brightly, and he said firmly.

"beat……"

"Such a good raid must be fought."

"There is no reason not to eat the fat that is delivered to our mouths."

"Old Kong, I support Xiao Huanghua in this battle."

"We still have the old rules. You lead a team and I lead a team. Set the battlefield near Huji and swallow the reinforcements sent by Neiji Okamura."

Huang Yu added: "I will leave a battalion here for the little devil's reinforcements to act."

"Let them feel that the Japanese troops stationed here are still fighting, so they relax their vigilance and lead the troops to reinforce the battlefield with great fanfare."

Li Yunlong clapped his hands and applauded: "This method is good...I agree..."

Kong Jie didn't answer immediately.

After staring at the map for half a minute, he answered, "Then fight this battle."

"Since we're here, we'll beat Neiji Okamura thoroughly."

"Maybe the opportunity has passed, and we will never have such a good opportunity again."

…………

Kawaguchi Osamu is the captain of the left reinforcement unit dispatched by Okamura Ningji.

When he was five kilometers away from the reinforcement target, the call from the battlefield faintly reached his ears.

It means that the Eighth Route Army is still fighting on the battlefield. As long as you are fast enough, it is still very possible to encircle them on the battlefield, gather and wipe them out.

Then the iron wall encirclement against the Yizhong base will end early.

The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and I urged the troops to speed up the march while hurrying.

When there were still three kilometers away from the battlefield, the messenger of the cavalry squadron suddenly ran towards him in a panic: "Your Excellency, Captain..."

"We found a large number of imperial corpses ahead."

"There are as many as four hundred..."

"Judging from their identities, they should have been attacked on the way back to the reinforcement station, and the entire army was wiped out."

The chief of staff of the wing said without a wrinkle: "Sir..."

"The Eighth Route Army's blocking troops who can eat more than 400 elite imperial troops in one bite must not be underestimated. Maybe they are hiding somewhere in front and waiting for us to hit the guns."

"I suggest that the troops immediately slow down their marching speed, strengthen their vigilance, and at the same time expand the search area to prevent the Eighth Route Army from ambush us."

"Boom boom boom... da da da..."

At this moment, the sound of firefights from the battlefield suddenly became denser.

Colonel Kawaguchi quickly raised his telescope and looked toward the battlefield.

Although I couldn't see the live action, I could see the flames from the shells, which dyed the sky where the battlefield was located, showing how fierce the battle was.

Immediately, he asked the communications staff officer beside him, "Have you not contacted the warring troops yet?"

The communications staff officer shook his head and replied: "We lost contact with them half an hour ago, and then we never contacted them again."

"The telegram they sent before showed that the Eighth Route Army's attacking troops were equipped with a large number of mountain artillery and tanks. When they found important targets in the garrison, they would use mountain artillery to bombard them. I suspect that their wing headquarters was hit by artillery fire and the radio station was destroyed. This led to temporary contact between the two parties. interruption."

Colonel Kawaguchi nodded, obviously approving of the communications staff's analysis.

Immediately ordered to the chief of staff: "The sound of firefights from the battlefield is getting denser."

"The troops participating in the war may be wiped out by the Eighth Route Army at any time. We must hurry up to reinforce the battlefield and encircle the Eighth Route Army there."

"Otherwise they'll slip right under our noses."

"Then everyone will be in vain."

"As for the Eighth Route Army reinforcements you are worried about."

"Although they have the strength to eat up more than 400 of us in a short period of time, have you noticed that these soldiers who died in battle were basically light infantry with very little artillery."

"The Eighth Route Army that attacked them was equipped with chariots. I don't say that everyone should know the result of a light infantry fighting against chariots."

"We have more than 2000 people, not only equipped with a tank squadron, but also a mountain artillery brigade."

"If the Eighth Route Army reinforcements really dare to touch us, I don't mind making a good start here, killing some of the Eighth Route Army first, and then going to encircle their main force."

The alliance captain's analysis is not unreasonable.

Although the chief of staff felt that there was something wrong with it, he couldn't find any evidence to refute the analysis of the joint captain, so he could only nod in approval.

"Rumble..."

A sound of horseshoes suddenly sounded more than 1000 meters away, and the sound became louder and louder, obviously coming towards the reinforcements.

Colonel Kawaguchi looked tense and immediately ordered: "No, there are cavalry coming towards us."

"The troops are ready to fight immediately, and the cavalry squadron immediately goes up to find out the opponent's strength."

Although the Japanese cavalry squadron only had hundreds of cavalry, their fearless fighting style made them go up without hesitation, even though they knew that the opponent had more troops than themselves.

And they are also very confident in their fighting power.

As a result, the two sides were killed as soon as they came into contact with the cavalry squadron.

Dazuo Kawaguchi was furious, and cursed loudly: "Bageya Road..."

"The Eighth Route Army is too cunning to use a large number of submachine guns and automatic pistols when the cavalry charged. This is not fair..."

"Woooooooo..."

Just when the regimental captain was about to continue cursing, the clamor of shells flying across the sky sounded again.

Before anyone could react, a violent explosion sounded on the road not far away.

Flames splashed, and a tank was instantly blown up, turning into a ball of fire, and an armored vehicle was blown over, emitting black smoke. (end of this chapter)
