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

The New Third Regiment has two artillery units?

Moreover, thirty grenade launchers far exceed the number of artillery batteries!

Although grenade launchers are individual combat weapons, thirty of them together may not be weaker than an ordinary artillery battalion!

Even Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment's twelve large-caliber mountain guns were no less formidable!

"to be frank!"

"I can hardly believe it!"

The boss shook his head. It was a regimental-level organization that had only been established for a month!

These achievements are the limit!

Deciphering Yoshio Shinotsuka's conspiracy, including the reconnaissance unit, has nothing to do with combat ability; it only proves that Xie Jinyuan is a talented person!

But even the headquarters of his 386th Brigade couldn't possibly be that wealthy in terms of weaponry and equipment!

After all, the new Third Regiment is only a regiment-level organization with a thousand men!

How can two artillery units be supported?

"Boss! Don't you think there's a possibility?"

"Is the New Third Regiment not a regiment's worth of troops?" After a pause, the deputy chief of staff asked.

Because neither the 386th Brigade Commander's account, nor the newly appeared reconnaissance company, nor these artillery companies seem to be the main force of the New Third Regiment!

It's more like a functional program!

"impossible!"

"If the battalion-level unit that appeared at Yushu Ridge wasn't the main force of the New Third Regiment, how many troops do you think the entire New Third Regiment would have?" the commander interrupted.

“At least three thousand!” the deputy chief of staff said.

Four hundred men are not part of the main force, so the entire New Third Regiment must have at least three thousand men!

"That's it!"

"Do you think a regimental-level unit that has only been established for a month can expand its strength to three thousand in such a short period of time?" the boss asked meaningfully.

At the same time, it's not just a matter of expansion; the daily military supplies for 3,000 people are not something a regiment-level unit can sustain!

Therefore, an artillery company is already the limit of a regimental-level organization!

"That means Duan Peng's information was inaccurate!" The deputy chief of staff nodded and said.

Given the mobility of the grenade launcher, it is feasible to deal with the Yamazaki Battalion first before heading to Heian County!

After a moment of contemplation, the deputy chief of staff continued, "Then, sir! Shall we issue a full-scale operational mission now, or..."

With the third major sweep imminent, the natural next step is...

"Don't issue it yet!"

"Before the full-scale operation begins, we must first take Ping'an County!" the boss interrupted.

The Yamazaki Battalion has been captured, and the other mine that Yoshio Shinotsuka planted in northwestern Shanxi, Ping'an County, must also be removed!

Announcing the third major offensive now is undoubtedly not the best opportunity, and it is very likely to affect morale!

The best opportunity will be to seize Ping'an County and press the attack!

This is also the main reason why he didn't reveal the third major sweep to the commander of the 386th Brigade!

"How about this? Transfer an artillery battalion from headquarters!"

"Regardless of whether Duan Peng is right or wrong, even if Xie Jinyuan really did send an entire artillery company over there!"

"It's unlikely to pose a significant threat to Ping'an County!"

We must prepare for both possibilities!

The boss said in a deep voice.

Ping'an County is no easy nut to crack!

"Yes, sir!"

The deputy chief of staff suddenly stood at attention.

……

at the same time!

Ping'an County!

Located in the heart of northwestern Shanxi!

With its open terrain and strategic location guarding the vital passage to the south, it was a place of strategic importance for military strategists, and at the same time, a thorn in the side of the anti-Japanese armed forces in northwestern Shanxi!

Meanwhile, near Ping'an County, a large number of gray military uniforms appeared!

Alternating light and heavy firepower for cover!

Waves of soldiers carried ladders and rushed towards the vicinity of the city wall of Ping'an County!

However, before they could reach their designated positions, they were repelled by the Japanese army's light and heavy firepower!

The casualties were heavy in a short time!

"Stop rushing!"

"Stop charging!" Li Yunlong suddenly sprang out from behind cover, his face ashen.

"Captain!"

Zhang Dabiao looked puzzled.

"I told you not to charge!" Li Yunlong glared angrily at Zhang Dabiao!

They tried to break through Ping'an County's defenses more than a dozen times but still couldn't get through!

This battle was lost from the very beginning!

"Commander! Let me lead the brothers in one more charge!"

Zhang Dabiao gritted his teeth and said.

He knew what it meant if he couldn't take Ping'an County!

This time it's countless times more serious than Cangyunling!

Without the approval of higher authorities, a large-scale campaign was launched without authorization!

The casualties caused at the same time, as well as the addition of other units to the battle!

Not to mention being dismissed from his post, even being executed wouldn't be an exaggeration!

"I told you! Don't charge!"

"Didn't you hear me?" Li Yunlong roared angrily.

"Yamamoto! I know you're here! If you're a man, come out here!" Li Yunlong shouted angrily at the city gate tower not far away, his eyes bloodshot.

"Lord Li Yunlong!"

There's an old Chinese saying: "Where there's life, there's hope!"

"Of course, you can also choose to continue the attack!" A voice slowly came from the city gate tower, and Yamamoto's figure slowly appeared!

"Yamamoto!"

"I will not take the lives of my soldiers lightly!"

"Using women as leverage, what kind of soldier are you! If you're a man, fight me for real!"

Upon seeing Yamamoto appear, Li Yunlong kicked away the sandbag beside him and said with bloodshot eyes.

"Lord Li Yunlong! I advise you not to waste your energy! This is a pointless endeavor!"

"If I were you, I would retreat now, perhaps it's not too late! Let's offer a sacrifice to your Eighth Route Army's supreme commander!"

Yamamoto shook his head.

At the same time, a hint of disdain was revealed in his eyes!

That's just how Chinese people are—they act on impulse!

You must understand that this is Ping'an County. Even if the troops in front of us were several times larger, they would not be able to break through without heavy weapons!

The only reason they're showing up now is because they feel sorry for him!

"Yamamoto! What the hell are you spouting?"

"Lord Li Yunlong!"

"You think my elaborate sneak attack on Zhao Jia Yu was really for you, or rather, for your Independent Regiment?" Yamamoto said with a look of disdain.

Keep in mind that he was the first soldier in the empire to learn special operations tactics!

They even formed the empire's first special operations force!

His gaze was always fixed on the high-ranking Chinese commanders!
