Chapter 155

North review.

Inside the North China Front Army Command.

"In the vicinity of Yangcun, build a mountain horse road for supplies?"

"Supply high-quality food?"

Organized by the army, the construction project of the mountain horse road, which is hundreds of kilometers long, starts from Shitouwan and connects the surrounding base villages. The scale is huge and there are many employees.

There is no need to hide from the devil.

"Is this planning to defend Yangcun to the death?"

This news made Naozaburo Okabe happy:

"Yo Xi."

The large-scale construction of supply passages shows that the independent regiment stationed in Yangcun is prepared to defend to the death and head-to-head with the locust army.

This is a good thing.

Great thing.

Although the guerrillas have recently acquired a lot of good equipment, sufficient ammunition, and their strength has increased a lot, especially this independent regiment, the brigade-level light firepower even exceeds that of the Locust Army, and the permanent division is also inferior.

But this time, the empire dispatched a brigade.

Or a special mixed brigade.

Belongs to large-scale troops.

In addition to the 24 75-caliber mountain field guns of the brigade's own artillery unit, there are also two independent artillery brigades, equipped with two newly-serviced Type 99 150 mountain guns and four Type 105 [-] cannons.

There is also a flying wing of 24 bombers to provide air support at any time.

And Tubalu, as far as he knew, didn't have any heavy weapons.

Naozaburo Kobe wants to let Tubalu know that the Imperial Locust Army not only has brigades and regiments, but also brigades and divisions, and the latter is where the true strength of the Locust Army lies.

"Order Hattori brigade commander to submit a combat report as soon as possible."

Okabe Naozaburo put on a smile.

"Hi."

···
"Ninety-Nine Type 150 Mountain Cannon!"

"Two doors!"

In the Yangpo stronghold, the old devil Duano has been in a happy mood recently, full of hope for the future.

In fact, not long ago, he was quite desperate.

After the failure of the attack on Yangcun, General Jisaburo Okabe ordered his Tano Regiment to stay in Yangpo and confront the independent regiment stationed near Yangcun.

He is a semi-crippled infantry regiment with a total strength of only about 2000 people, confronting the tyrannical Independence Regiment and other troops stationed near Yangcun—isn't this pushing him into the fire pit?
Fortunately, as the strength of the Tuba Road increased, the security problem became more and more serious. The headquarters was specially responsible for attacking Yangcun, and the Hattori mixed brigade with a total strength of over [-] was formed.

He belongs to the Hattori brigade and will attack the independent regiment under the command of the Hattori brigade commander.

Although he does not know the final size of the Hattori brigade,
But the artillery brigade that has just arrived at Yangpo, carrying two of the latest 150-caliber mountain guns in the empire and the most advanced in the world, belongs to the Hattori mixed brigade.

150 caliber!

Mountain Cannon!

Of course, as a mountain gun, in order to achieve sufficient mobility, the barrel has to be shortened to reduce the weight. Considering the portability reduces the structural strength, so although the Type 150 mountain gun has a caliber of 105, its actual power is only equivalent to a [-] gun. Even lighter.

But enough.

Deal with a large number of civil engineering works built by the independent regiment around Yangcun.

enough!
"I don't know when to attack!"

Tightening the samurai sword in his hand, Old Devil Tano was in a happy mood.

He was a little impatient.

In the next attack, after the Type 150 [-] mountain artillery destroyed the independent regiment's fortifications, he would personally lead the team to charge and attack.

···
"The information from the headquarters is here."

In Yangcun, the Independent Regiment Headquarters, Zhao Gang took a piece of information and handed it to Li Yunlong:
"It's the devil's Hattori mixed brigade that is going to attack us."

"This brigade, adapted from the No.20 [-]st Brigade of the Japanese Army, has strengthened an infantry wing and also strengthened artillery firepower."

"21 Brigade!"

Li Yunlong flashed sharply.

He is familiar with this brigade.

I also suffered a small loss back then.

At that time, he had only taken over the Xinyi Regiment for a month, and the troops had just formed combat effectiveness. They belonged to fledgling chickens, and the devils came to sweep them up. In order to cover the transfer of ordinary people, the Xinyi Regiment was forced to fight with a brigade of the 21st Brigade, and lost a lot people.

"It is estimated that the total force is around 3000."

"Maybe even more."

Zhao Gang continued.

"3000 people!"

Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes.

"And it also carries heavy artillery with a caliber of more than [-]!"

Zhao Gang continued to talk about the information collected by the headquarters.

What the world lacks most is those who make the most of the situation. With the display of the strength of the troops, the Hundred Regiments War has gained momentum and fame, and the intelligence work has become much easier.

After all, these people are the biggest source of information.

"Heavy artillery!"

Li Yunlong dragged out a long ending sound.

The devil will dispatch heavy artillery, and it will be a large-caliber heavy artillery, which Li Yunlong had expected.

The Independent Regiment built a large number of circular fortifications and fortresses on the left and right sides of Yangcun. All commanding heights were equipped with heavy machine guns or artillery fire points, forming a three-layer fortification system that stretched for more than 30 kilometers in depth.

The fortifications, forts, firepower points and commanding heights are connected by mountain roads.

The only weak point is in the direction of Luojiawan.

But that was the absolute rear where the troops fought in the Hundred Regiments War. If the devils wanted to come in, they had to either attack from the direction of Yang Village, or from the complex mountainous area with a depth of more than a hundred kilometers deployed on both wings.

Or come in from the direction of the Taihang Mountains, the headquarters in the rear.

No matter what kind, they have to face interception and harassment by more than a dozen regiments, and the depth span can reach hundreds of kilometers. It is impossible to come in after repeated harassment.

Therefore, the direction of Yangcun is the easiest to enter. Although there are independent regiments guarding and a three-tier fortification system, the transportation is the most convenient, which is conducive to supply, and the depth span is only more than 30 kilometers.

In order to deal with the deep fortifications of the independent regiment, the devils will inevitably dispatch large-caliber heavy artillery.

The independent regiment built earthworks, which could not stop the devil's heavy artillery.

The significance of fortifications is to facilitate the display of one's own firepower, hinder the display of enemy firepower, and, under the enemy's firepower, preserve one's own vital forces.

Although the devil's artillery can destroy trenches, circular fortifications, and preset firepower positions, the reinforced air-raid shelters can allow soldiers to survive under the firepower of the devil's heavy artillery.

As long as the people are there, the battlefield is there.

Artillery is not the devil's opponent, so avoid the devil's artillery, come out after the shelling, fight the devil in close combat, fight at night, and take advantage of the light firepower of the independent regiment.

Play, backed by the advantages of a huge base.

···
“Around Yangcun…”

North Review, Headquarters, Naotomi Hattori is introducing his battle plan:

"It is a continuous and complex mountainous area. Our target Stone Bay is located about [-] kilometers deep in the mountainous area."

"Deployed near Yangcun, the Tuba Road led by Li Yunlong has a total force of more than 1 people, equipped with a large number of machine guns and mortars, and has built a deep and multi-layered fortification system."

"It is the direction with the strongest defense."

"but···"

"..."

"So, the best direction of attack is to break through from the front of Yangcun, and then only attack Shitouwan."

Naotomi Hattori knew very well that the core target of his brigade's attack this time was the place in Stone Bay, which was either a warehouse or an underground passage.

but it does not matter.

Just occupy here.

Whether it is a warehouse or an underground passage, the locust army will be able to understand it, and it can also completely destroy it, cut off the source of supplies for the guerrillas, and maybe find out who it is, the locust army officer who attacked.

And, how to obtain imperial information.

"General."

At this time, a staff officer rushed over in a hurry, with a flustered tone:
"Departing from Beiping, the military column headed for Xuzhou was attacked, including Lieutenant General Inokari Ryosuke, Major General Atsuji Kenhiko, and Major General Asuki Yasi, including 78 people."

"idiot!"

Naozaburo Okabe drew out his samurai sword furiously, and smashed the headquarters table into pieces:

"attack."

"Attack now!"

"Hi."

Naotomi Hattori nodded yes.

Although the sweeping army is not ready yet, after the three generals were attacked by Yu Sui in October, the Hattori brigade in charge of attacking Yangcun has been assembled due to repeated urging from the base camp. As of today, that is, on November [-], the armored The brigade, the two independent heavy artillery brigades and the artillery shells have all gone to the Yangpo stronghold first, and the supplies have reached half of the preset plan.

Subsequent supplies will arrive within a week.

Following the orders of Naozaburo Okabe, Naotomi Hattori led three partial infantry regiments, one artillery regiment, and other major brigades from the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Epidemic Prevention and Water Supply, and the Field Hospital to the Yangpo stronghold.

On the way, Naotomi Hattori was sitting in a truck in high spirits.

This time, his Hattori mixed brigade has four infantry regiments. Although it is not full, the infantry is as high as 1. There is also an artillery regiment with 24 75-caliber mountain guns, and two independent artillery battalions. Equipped with two Type 150 105 mountain guns and four Type 6000 [-]-caliber long-range cannons, plus an independent armored brigade, five armored vehicles, and three light tanks, the total combat strength is as high as [-].

This has not counted the two thousand supplementary soldiers.

Such a powerful force, how can the independent group resist?
Just rely on the earthworks in the mountainous area of ​​tens of kilometers?

Rely on those 1.6 mortars with a range of only 60 kilometers, and the 3.1 mortars with a range of only 82 kilometers?
Although there are a large number of these mortars, as long as they appear, the former Type 24 infantry guns can be suppressed, or they can be destroyed by [-] Type [-] mountain guns handed over to the artillery wing.

"such a pity!"

Naotomi Hattori sighed.

His artillery regiment is equipped with Type [-] mountain artillery instead of the latest Type [-] mountain artillery.

The latter has a longer range and higher accuracy without significantly increasing the weight. The key is to improve the problem of insufficient shooting stability of the Siyi-type mountain gun at high elevation angles.

However, it is enough.

"If it was the same group of people who attacked the military column and provided supplies to the guerrillas, then..."

Hattori Naotomi's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

In the military attack in March, he almost broke the jade.

He remembered this revenge.
