During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

"It wasn't me, it wasn't the brother unit that covered for Li Yunlong!"

"What makes Li Yunlong think he can take Ping'an County?" the brigade commander asked angrily.

"Commander! We can take Ping'an County!"

"This Li Yunlong is more than just a few skilled men!"

"According to the report, in the battle of Ping'an City, Li Yunlong deployed more than a dozen heavy artillery pieces! And they were all large-caliber heavy artillery pieces!" the deputy chief of staff said with a meaningful look.

More than a dozen heavy cannons!

No wonder Li Yunlong dared to cause trouble for Ping An City!

Keep in mind that the brigade headquarters couldn't even muster a dozen or so heavy artillery pieces! Otherwise, they wouldn't have been in such a passive position during the Battle of Yushuling!

"A dozen or so heavy cannons?"

"He, Li Yunlong, has more than a dozen heavy artillery pieces?" The brigade commander immediately stood up, looking incredulous.

"Correct!"

"Moreover, the Independent Regiment's strength has also increased significantly!"

"It was a wise choice for the brigade commander to put the Independent Regiment in Li Yunlong's hands!" the deputy chief of staff nodded.

Li Yunlong may cause trouble, but he's a real expert at leading troops, fighting battles, and developing the country!

It's only been a short time since the Independent Regiment was handed over to him. A dozen heavy artillery pieces—that's almost a whole artillery battalion!

"no!"

"It would be a complete waste to put these dozen or so heavy cannons in Li Yunlong's hands, and they might even cause some trouble!"

"Get me on the Independent Regiment's call!" After a moment of contemplation, the brigade commander stood up and quickly ordered.

If anyone dares to set their sights on him, at least 70% of those dozen or so heavy artillery pieces will belong to the brigade headquarters!

"Commander! It's probably not a good time now!"

"Judging from the timeline, the battle of Ping'an City has just ended, and the Independent Regiment should be on its way back to headquarters!"

"We haven't been able to make contact yet!" the deputy chief of staff said, shaking his head.

What we know now is that this is just a message hastily transmitted by the communications authorities!

The specifics will only be known once Li Yunlong's troops return to the Independent Regiment!

"Then let's answer the call from headquarters first!"

"That son of a bitch, Li Yunlong!"

"He caused trouble, and now I have to take the blame for him!" The brigade commander said, his lips twitching unconsciously.

The battle of Heian-jo was fought with a considerable number of troops!

Even headquarters is probably still in the dark! So we must report the facts to headquarters as soon as possible!

But when I think about the mess Li Yunlong made!

The brigade commander felt a chill run down his spine again!

"Yes, Commander!"

……people.

Headquarters in Daya Bay!

"Boss! More and more troops are getting involved in the war!"

Inside the headquarters, the deputy chief of staff looked at the messages and sighed helplessly.

Most importantly, it wasn't just the Eighth Route Army!

Even on the Jin-Sui Army side, after the 358th Regiment was deployed to the war, more and more troops joined the battle!

"Now it all depends on that kid Li Yunlong!"

"If we can end the Ping'an Campaign in the shortest possible time, we might be able to escape!"

“If we delay a little longer, I’m afraid…” the boss said, taking a deep breath.

The war has reached a stalemate, and both he and Yoshio Shinotsuka are racing against time!

"Boss!"

"If Yoshio Shinotsuka were to send troops at this time!"

“Then we…” the deputy chief of staff said with a solemn expression.

We are completely mired in the quagmire of war, and extricating ourselves from it will not be something that can be accomplished in a day or two!

If Yoshio Shinotsuka were to send troops at this time, everything would be over!

"no way!"

"We can only leave it to fate!" the boss said helplessly, shaking his head.

So now we can only pin all our hopes on Li Yunlong and the artillery battalion that was transferred to Ping'an City!

The sooner the peace and tranquility of Ping'an County is over, the sooner the Eighth Route Army can begin its strategic deployment!

Let's get this going and have a good fight with Yoshio Shinotsuka!

"Report!"

"Boss! Urgent intelligence from the Second World War zone!"

Just as the deputy chief of staff was about to speak, the communications officer's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door!

"Urgent intelligence from the Second World War zone?"

The boss's heart skipped a beat!

The two exchanged a glance, and a sense of foreboding crept into their hearts.

"speak!"

After the correspondent came in, the boss gestured.

"Commander! A telegram has arrived from Commander Yan's headquarters in the Second War Zone! The Japanese Expeditionary Army's First Army stationed in Taiyuan has dispatched five field divisions, totaling over 100,000 troops, and has already set off for northwestern Shanxi!"

"Two of them are Class A divisions that fought in the Battle of Shanghai and the Battle of Kwantung!"

The correspondent finished speaking haltingly, his hands trembling uncontrollably!

"Boss! You've finally arrived!" the deputy chief of staff said, his face pale.

Five field divisions!

Over 100,000 troops!

Two Class A divisions!

"Shinotsuka Yoshio, this time you're really asking for an exorbitant amount!" The boss's expression was equally grave.

It would be absolutely impossible for the First Army alone to mobilize such a massive force of hundreds of thousands of elite troops. Even the combined forces deployed by Yoshio Shinotsuka in the previous large-scale battles did not amount to this many!

More importantly, there are two Class A divisions. Every Chinese soldier knows the meaning of the words "Class A division"!

In other words, Yoshio Shinotsuka really does, as Duan Peng said, want to completely wipe out the entire anti-Japanese armed forces in northwestern Shanxi!

"Boss! What do we do now?" After a pause, the deputy chief of staff asked with a bitter expression.

"Pass on the order!"

"It can't be hidden anymore!"

"The earlier you prepare, the better!"

The boss shook his head.

The reason for waiting until the battle of Heian County is to remove the thorn that Yoshio Shinotsuka planted within our ranks, and at the same time, to take advantage of the morale boost from the battle of Heian County, there may still be a glimmer of hope!

But now it seems that even though Ping'an County has been captured!

It's all in vain!

Yoshio Shinotsuka moved too fast!

It was so fast he didn't even have time to react!

"Boss..."

The deputy chief of staff looked helpless.

I was just about to issue the order!

"Report! Boss!"

"A call from the headquarters of the 386th Brigade!"

The communicator's voice rang out again.
