Chapter 547 Ambush Plan!

This B-4 howitzer was equipped with the Soviet Red Army in 1931.

However, it was not taken seriously at the beginning, and it was only used for military parades. It became famous in the Soviet-Finnish War from 1939 to 1940.

This heavy-duty howitzer shined brilliantly in the Soviet-German War. It destroyed a bunker with one shot, and the German army fled when it saw it. Therefore, it is also called the German Happy Cannon.

Looking at the heavy-duty howitzer that needs a crawler tractor to maneuver in the information picture, Captain Li's eyes were extremely hot.

The father's hammer heavy howitzer given by Boss Chen should be no worse than the 240mm heavy cannon of the little devil.

After all, Boss Chen's product must be a high-quality product.

Li Yunlong looked at the correspondent Chen Baoshan: "Xiao Chen, immediately call Chief of Staff Wang and Deputy Head Xing to the headquarters for a meeting!"

The correspondent, Xiao Chen, is a 19-year-old Shanxi native. He is very smart and educated, so Li Yunlong took him by his side as a correspondent.

Xiao Chen carries a high-power walkie-talkie and a low-power walkie-talkie, and he can also send and receive telegrams.

If you are traveling far away, you will also bring a radio station, which will be carried by the guard Huang Erhu.

Chief of Staff Wang and the guards around Xing Zhiguo also brought walkie-talkies, so Chen Baoshan directly picked up the walkie-talkies and called Wang Dehou and Xing Zhiguo.

About 10 minutes later, Xing Zhiguo and Chief of Staff Wang entered the regiment headquarters successively.

"The common people are already harvesting autumn grain." After greeting Boss Chen, Xing Zhiguo said, "The harvest is expected to be finished in about ten days."

The land in northwestern Shanxi is barren, and the people rely on agriculture as their foundation. All their work is concentrated in the soil, and everything is for harvesting. They work in the fields before dawn and return home after dark.

But now it's autumn harvest time, although the harvest is not much, but now with the protection of the Eighth Route Army, the harvested food can barely last for a year.

If the family is really in trouble, there is no grain harvest, or the harvest is too little, Xinyituan will also give some grain to tide over the difficulties.

Due to the terrain, it takes about a month for all the autumn grain to be harvested, but now is a special period, no matter whether the autumn grain is ripe or not, the grain must be taken home from the field.

After the grain is harvested, it cannot be put into the warehouse or buried in the ground immediately, but must be dried in the sun before storage.

"Ten days?"

Zhao Gang frowned slightly:
"The New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment sent a telegram that it will take about 15 days for the people in their two defense areas to cross the Yellow River."

"It looks like we're running out of time."

Xing Zhiguo's tone was surprised: "Didn't Lao Ding and Lao Kong send a telegram saying that there is no problem in sticking to it for 15 days? As for us, let alone sticking to it for 15 days, even if you give the 10th Division 150 days, the devils can't get in."

Xing Zhiguo, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei and Kong Jie are old comrades in arms of the Fourth Front Army.

In private, Xing Zhiguo often called Li Yunlong Lao Li.

Chief of Staff Wang nodded and said: "There is time. After the people of the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment have crossed the Yellow River, the two regiments will withdraw from the defense area and approach us. After we concentrate our forces to defeat the 10th Division, the common people will withdraw. Go to the Hengshan and Dagushan areas, and then turn around to look for fighters to see if we can defeat one or two second-line divisions of the Japanese army."

This was also Li Yunlong's initial battle plan.

At present, it seems that there is no problem with this battle plan, and everything is developing in the direction of the plan.

The other four divisions failed to attack the defense area of ​​the new second regiment and the independent regiment, and the 10th division could not penetrate the defense area of ​​the new regiment at all.

The combination of various tactics such as mines, thickened bunkers, tunnels and reverse slopes, powerful artillery firepower, sufficient ammunition and logistical supplies, even the 10th Division of the Kwantung Army, it is difficult to shake the new regiment, and now the combat effectiveness of the new regiment , beyond all expectations.

"The situation has changed now, you two take a look at this first."

Li Yunlong pointed to the information provided by Boss Chen on the table, with a dignified and hot expression.

Seeing Li Yunlong's expression, Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou picked up the documents on the table in surprise.

One or two copies of the materials, just one for each of them. While they were reading the materials, Zhao Gang explained the general situation first, but it was not as detailed as in the materials.

Soon, the two finished reading the information.

"A heavy artillery regiment and an infantry regiment?"

Xing Zhiguo's expression became a little dignified.

"This information is very important and timely, thank you Consultant Chen!"

Wang Dehou looked at Chen Feng with a grateful expression. Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang didn't need to say, he knew from the paper materials that this information must have been provided by Boss Chen, and only Boss Chen had the ability and ability to provide such important information. intelligence.

"Chief of Staff Wang is polite. I'm here for business." Chen Feng smiled slightly. After the wave of anti-mopping up and killing the Devil's Heavy Artillery Squad is over, he can also earn a lot of merit points, which can be said to be mutually beneficial. .

Merit points have many benefits, such as being able to exchange for more female bodyguards to play poker together, and there are all kinds of styles in Europe, America, Japan, and Korea.

Although Chen Feng said so, whether it was Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, Wang Dehou or Xing Zhiguo, they all looked at Chen Feng with gratitude.

The value of this information alone is worth at least 200 gold bars on the black market.

"I said why the devils from the 10th Division didn't attack today. They were waiting for the Heavy Artillery Regiment."

Wang Dehou narrowed his eyes. He just came back from inspecting the First Battalion and found that the devils were not only not attacking, but were building trenches and other fortifications.

In addition, the 3rd and 4th Battalions in Lijia Township also sent a telegram, saying that the devils did not continue to attack today, and the same is true for other small roads.

"If we wait for the devil's heavy artillery unit to arrive, we're afraid we'll be in big trouble."

Then, Wang Dehou continued: "We must be on the way, and kill the devil's heavy artillery unit!"

He knew that Li Yunlong also had the same idea. It was written clearly in the information that if the Xinyi Regiment could kill this heavy artillery unit, it would not only solve the trouble, but also make a lot of business. Twenty 20mm howitzers, 150 B10 heavy artillery Howitzer, with such a delicious price, Li Yunlong will never give up.

There are photos of the B4 heavy howitzer on this document, but Wang Dehou and Xing Zhiguo can tell at a glance that this heavy howitzer is a vicious beast.

Of course, the power of the devil's 150mm cannon and 240mm heavy cannon is also terrifying.

Once the devil's heavy artillery unit reaches the front line, it will definitely be a disaster for the new regiment.

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's for sure." Zhao Gang glanced at everyone and said, "The devil's heavy artillery unit was transported from the Pingsui Railway to Datong by military train. The escorted heavy artillery unit had a [-]th armored train and another An army column of devils and an infantry regiment."

"Since we have obtained this information, we must kill the devil's heavy artillery unit on the way."

"There are two options before us now. The first option is to be done by the brother troops of the Jinchaji Military Region."

"The second option is to use our troops hidden in the sixth and seventh divisions on the outside line."

The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region includes most of Hebei Province, the border areas of Jin Province, and Chahar Province. The Jinchaji Military Region is very close to the Ping-Sui Railway.

Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes and said: "But if the brother troops from Jinchaji do it, we will have no business. These are 20 150 howitzers and 10 fatherly hammers. Labor and management don't want to give up easily."

Boss Chen's business requirement is that only the work done by the new regiment led by Li Yunlong is considered a business, and they can get paid afterwards.

Wang Dehou looked at Chen Feng: "Consultant Chen, if, if the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army transferred several troops from the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region to the new regiment, which was under the command of regimental commander Li Yunlong, and killed the devil's heavy artillery unit, would it be considered a business?" ?”

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, and Xing Zhiguo also looked at Chen Feng with anticipation in their eyes.

"Calculate!"

Chen Feng nodded, as long as the troops under the command of Lieutenant Leader Li counted.

Don't you, Li Yunlong, do such things too often? The helmets of the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment, as well as the ammunition of the two bases of the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment, didn't they come from such a bug?
This group of guys has become more proficient in card system bugs.

But Chen Feng didn't have any opinions, the bugs of the dog system had to be stuck hard, and the wool had to be squeezed hard.

Li Yunlong was overjoyed at first, and a bold plan emerged in his mind: "In addition to the troops of the Jinchaji Military Region, our two battalions also have to go. The devils escorting the Heavy Artillery Regiment have a member of the Class A Division." I am worried that the brother troops of the Jinchaji Military Region will suffer.”

The escort of the 5th Heavy Artillery Regiment this time was the infantry regiment of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army.

Although in terms of weapons and equipment, the headquarters supported some brother troops for the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, but the overall equipment level and ammunition reserves are very different from the general Japanese troops, let alone the infantry of the Japanese 1st Division United.

In terms of combat effectiveness, the infantry regiment of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army is also more fierce than the infantry regiment of the 10th Division.

Only when the two battalions of the sixth and seventh divisions participated in the battle, Li Yunlong was relieved.

Although it seems to be only two battalions, the total strength exceeds 4000, and the firepower is very strong.

Wang Dehou looked at the map and said: "Our Sixth and Seventh Divisions are hidden in Mount Heng, only more than 60 kilometers away from the Pingsui Railway. The problem is that these two battalions will not turn on the radio easily, how do we contact them?"

Now the Xinyi Regiment was blocked in the base area by the 10th Division, and there were devils defending both the main road and the small road to prevent the Xinyi Regiment from breaking through.

And Li Yunlong's order to the two battalions was to tell them not to use the radio to contact the regiment headquarters unless it was absolutely necessary.

Because the devils in the base area can't get in for the time being, they can use the radio freely, but outside, once the devils' detection equipment detects the signal, they will definitely be surrounded by the devils. The infantry wing of the regiment is stronger, but it is difficult for the devils to ambush the devil's logistics supply line if they find out.

Xing Zhiguo said tentatively: "Why don't you let the Sword Squadron try and see if you can infiltrate to find these two battalions?"

"You can give it a try." Zhao Gang said uncertainly, "But it's very risky."

Li Yunlong said decisively: "Then report to the headquarters first, and the headquarters will issue an order to ask the brother troops of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region to send people to Hengshan to find our two battalions."

……

Southeast Shanxi.

Headquarters.

The chief of staff is reporting to the boss about casualties and enemy deaths: "So far, the regiments in Northwest Shanxi have suffered about 500 casualties, and more than 2500 Japanese soldiers have been killed."

Although the 10th Division suspended its attack on the New First Regiment, the other four Japanese second-line divisions continued to attack the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment, and the offensive became more and more fierce.

If there were no tunnels and reverse slope tactics, as well as those bunkers, the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment would suffer heavy losses in at most three days.

Coupled with the ferocious firepower of mortars and mountain artillery, the casualties of the Japanese army were greater than those of the Eighth Route Army, and they were much greater.

Right now, the division commander is not at the headquarters, and has already led the main force of the 129th division northward. The other soldiers from the 386th brigade and the Taiyue military region are also heading northward along the Heliao highway to attack Yangquan under the leadership of brigade commander Chen.

The boss nodded, with a somewhat happy tone: "The Independence Regiment fought a beautiful battle, killing a Japanese army brigade of the second-tier division as soon as it took action. Gave us a surprise, haha!"

"Li Yunlong's Xinyi Regiment also played very well." The chief of staff said, "On the battlefield of Dagu Town, the first battalion of the Xinyi Regiment crushed the five attacks of the 10th Division in less than a day, with few casualties. The regiment also wiped out more than 1000 enemies in one day."

"I don't worry about Li Yunlong's Xinyi Regiment." The boss agreed: "I'm afraid the 10th Division is really not the opponent of Xinyi Regiment."

At this moment, the telegraph soldier hurried in with a few telegrams in his hand.

When he came to the boss and the chief of staff, he gave a military salute: "Report to the chief, a new urgent call!"

"Haha..." The boss suddenly laughed, "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here, and Li Yunlong must have brought us good news again."

After speaking, the boss took the telegram from the telegraph soldier with anticipation in his eyes, and the telegraph soldier turned and walked away quickly.

Immediately afterwards, the boss took the telegram and read it.

After reading the content of the telegram, the boss's expression became silent instead, which made the chief of staff feel shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Is there something wrong with the new regiment?"

"No!" The boss handed the telegram to the chief of staff, "You can read it yourself."

The chief of staff took the telegram from the boss and read it. The telegram contained four sheets of paper. After reading the last telegram, the chief of staff exclaimed: "B-4 heavy howitzer?"

The content of the telegram is that the regiment headquarters of Xinyi Regiment received reinforcements from the Japanese Army's heavy artillery regiment, and the request to temporarily send several regiments from Shanxi, Chahar and Hebei to the Xinyi Regiment, ambush the Japanese Army's heavy artillery regiment, and the transaction price. wait.

Needless to say, both the head of the headquarters and the chief of staff knew that this information must have come from Boss Chen again.

The boss hurriedly asked: "Do you know this howitzer?"

The chief of staff said: "This is a 203mm heavy howitzer developed by the Soviet Union. I saw photos of it when I was studying at the Frunze Military Academy. Let alone the reinforced concrete fortifications, you can even blow down the fortress!"

"So powerful!?" The boss's eyes lit up, "Then we must get it!"
