Chapter 159, Brigadier's Worries
"Go back and tell Li Yunlong that he doesn't need to worry about anything else. The New Second Regiment will do one thing for me. Use the fastest speed to wipe out the little devils and take Yushe County."

The brigade commander spoke loudly to the cavalry communicator.

Watching the people leave, Chief of Staff Zhou, who had just wiped his face with cold water, walked in with a little curiosity: "Old Chen, what happened to the New Second Regiment?"

"The New Second Regiment will launch an attack on Yushe County tonight. Li Yunlong has a lot to worry about, and he cares about our situation here!"

The brigade commander explained casually.

Li Yunlong sent someone to ask for instructions and report, and he was very happy.But there are some things that Li Yunlong should not worry about.

How much belly, how much food to eat.

If you want to eat too much, you are not afraid of choking to death!

Chief of Staff Zhou heard something was wrong, "What's wrong, Li Yunlong made you angry again?"

The brigade commander has always managed his emotions very well, otherwise he would not have been able to do a good job in espionage work in Shanghai before.

But if you want to hide it from the partners who live with you day and night, it is not so easy.

The brigade commander looked away from Liao County on the map, and said in a very helpless tone: "This Li Yunlong doesn't boast, and when he praises, he will turn his tail.

The task of attacking Yushe County was given to their New Second Regiment, and he was still thinking about Liao County.

Typical of eating from the bowl and looking at the pot, he is not afraid to overwhelm him. "

Li Yunlong thought that there was no one in the Eighth Route Army, so he was the only one who could fight with the new Second Regiment?

Without him, Butcher Li, and Butcher Zhang and Butcher Wang, the Eighth Route Army would not have to eat hairy pigs.

The brigade commander was afraid that Li Yunlong would have a long look at Shu, thinking about this and that, and in the end he couldn't even take down Yushe County.

Knowing the brigade commander's worries, Chief of Staff Zhou pondered for a while, and expressed his opinion: "I think the New Second Regiment is okay, but Yangquan and the others played very well.

There is also no shortage of weapons and equipment for attacking the fortifications. Although one regiment takes over the tasks of two regiments, I don't think it is a problem. "

Even in the past six months, the th Brigade has made a lot of progress in equipment.

However, the frontal combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army was still far inferior to that of the Japanese army.

According to the plan of the brigade staff, to attack Yushe County and Dongtuan Fort, either four basic regiments or at least two main regiments will be used.

Only by forming a numerical advantage in military strength and a certain advantage in local firepower can Yushe County be taken as soon as possible.

The New Second Regiment is indeed a main force, but he has one regiment but two regiments, and he is still thinking about the affairs of Liao County. Does he really regard the New Second Regiment as a universal nail?

"Just speak up for him. Sooner or later, he will have to make trouble."

The brigade commander took two steps back and forth, "Did you know that he took Yuan Lang to the county town for reconnaissance, and encountered devils in the village...

Yuan Lang was alone with Zhou Xuan, the puppet army of the th day. If something happened to him, how would I explain it to the superior? "

The cadres and soldiers below rejoiced when they saw the heroic deeds of one dozen forty.

But the brigade commander saw it from a different angle. Yuan Lang brought enough equipment for a reinforced regiment, new tanks and artillery.

What is this... is a walking treasure.

If such a treasure is not carefully protected, it is allowed to take risks.

If Li Yunlong was here, the brigade commander would have to point to his nose and ask, "Has your head been kicked by a donkey?"

Chief of Staff Zhou was amazed when he heard what had happened, and he was on par with the company commander surnamed Lu of the Eastward Column.

One was hacking to death 27 devils with two knives, and the other was going around in the village, almost single-handedly killing the -day puppet army.

It's all like a legend.

"Hey, calm down, Old Chen, this incident was purely accidental. I'll find a chance to talk about Li Yunlong later, so that he can remember it long."

Chief of Staff Zhou's intention of protecting is obvious.Li Yunlong, a titan who can fight tough battles, is liked by everyone.

The brigade commander is just good at talking, and he admires Li Yunlong very much from the bottom of his heart, otherwise he wouldn't always wipe his ass.

As for Yuan Lang's deeds, Chief of Staff Zhou suggested: "I think we can ask the border newspaper to do a good report, and then apply for a commendation from the headquarters. I guess the first-class merit has not escaped."

In order to protect the common people, he bravely fought the -day puppet army alone and wiped them out.

It's a morale booster with positive publicity value.

The brigade commander directly expressed his approval, and the matter of the new second regiment was turned over for the time being.

They still have more important matters, and there are still many problems in the overall situation.

Yushe County and Liao County, seven strongholds between the two counties.

There are big ones and small ones, the big ones are like the Dongtuanbao stronghold, almost more troops than Yushe County.

The small stronghold also has 30 people.

Among them, the eastern section of Yuliao Highway, apart from Liao County, the largest stronghold is Guantou.

The guards are more than 100 people from the underground squadron of the Japanese army. There are two infantry guns, one mortar, two heavy machine guns, eight light machine guns, eight grenadiers, and more than 100 rifles.

According to the deployment, the No. 12 regiment, the backbone regiment of the th Brigade, attacked Guantou.

The battle with Yushe County will also start at the same time tonight.

The brigade commander specially transferred a -type infantry gun and four mortars from the artillery battalion directly under the brigade to strengthen the attacking troops.

But even so, the Brigadier was still a little worried.

"Are you worried?" Chief of Staff Zhou asked.

"Yes, I have seen the terrain of Guantou. There are fortifications on the mountain, and there are bunkers at the bottom of the mountain. The firepower on the mountain and the mountain can support each other.
The mountain is steep, easy to defend, but very difficult to attack.Twelve groups are really not easy to chew on this hard bone. "

The brigade commander was worried that the troops would suffer too many casualties and it would take too long.

Yushe County and Liao County are like two buckets on a shoulder pole. There are more Japanese troops in Liao County, more than 400.

The brigade commander's plan is to first take down one end of the shoulder pole, and pull out the nails nailed on the whole pole.

Or attract the enemies in Liao County and destroy them.Or use Liao County as a round target to attract enemies from Heshun and Wuxiang.

Compared with the enemies in Heshun and Wuxiang, Liao County has fewer enemies.Moreover, it will be much easier to attack Liao County if its vital force is eliminated.

If you want to do the former, you must wipe out the enemies in Guantou and other places before the enemy reinforcements from Liao County arrive.

Just the right time is a very important issue.

Chief of Staff Zhou thought for a while and said, "We still have to give Commander Tao a chance. If we can't fight tonight, then I will supervise the battle for you."

……

On the 23rd, at eleven o'clock in the evening.

According to the time specified by the superiors, the head of the twelfth regiment Tao gave the order to attack.

Four infantry companies, carrying four mortars and one Type infantry gun, launched an attack on the Japanese army at the head of the tube.

At the same time, the New Second Regiment, which entered the attack position, also launched an attack on Yushe County under Li Yunlong's order.

The soldiers of the first battalion opened up the skirmish line, took the squad as the core, and approached the Ximen Chengguan quietly and covertly.

"Wang Wang, Wang Wang Wang..."

A bark of dogs made the night no longer silent.

It turned out that after what happened yesterday, the Japanese army raised its alert level to the highest level.

The soldiers kept watch day and night, and even got some dogs to help them spot the enemy.

The ears of dogs are much more sensitive than those of humans. When soldiers of the Eighth Route Army approached, they were spotted by dogs.

After a few gunshots at the city gate, the attacking troops could not make a sneak attack and had to change to a strong attack.

Li Yunlong has long been prepared for this situation.

During the reconnaissance last night, he saw that the enemy's fortifications were solid and well-defended, and he already had a premonition that the possibility of a successful surprise attack was unlikely.

Sneak attack can be done in a small way, but he just took it as one of the plans with the mentality of giving it a try.

"Notify Zhang Dabiao, call after the artillery fire is over." Li Yunlong said to the correspondent, and rang the phone.

This is the communication soldier, a telephone line temporarily connected to the artillery position.

After the call was connected, he didn't talk nonsense, "Howitzers, five rounds each. Give me a blast."

Yuan Lang over there hung up the phone and conveyed the order, but secretly complained in his heart: "Lao Li never recognized his relatives as soon as he went to the battlefield. I should have called a tool man to answer the phone."

He doesn't have a masochistic physique, and he won't feel happy when others scold him.

Yuan Lang, one of the artillerymen, had already set it himself, and the commanding platoon leader waved a small red flag and shouted the password loudly.

The shells were loaded and salvos were fired.

The sound of the rumbling guns almost deafened people's ears.

In the Xichengguan that was bombarded, the devils enjoyed not only the sound of guns, but also violent explosions, strong shock waves, and all kinds of debris scattered all over the sky.

The buildings constructed of masonry and cement were shattered by shells, and many of them collapsed.

"Mother……"

"My God..."

In the past, Japanese soldiers who had not enjoyed the attack of large-caliber artillery shells were suddenly attacked.

Shouting in horror and everything.

Worse than them was that they were turned into corpses in the artillery fire.

In the headquarters of Yushe Middle School, Major Noguchi gasped.

The worst has come.

It's the large-caliber howitzer owned by the legendary Eighth Route Army... Damn, those guys with corpses on top of them, bastards add eight levels.

Also vowed to guarantee, guarantee your mother! ! !

Major Noguchi greeted the eight generations of ancestors of those people. No matter how beautiful the words were, they were not the ones who suffered the crisis of life and death.

While waiting anxiously and cursing, the Xichengguan defenders called.

"Sir, Xicheng Pass is under heavy attack, and the enemy has used large-caliber artillery. Please reinforce quickly!"
