You are ordered to support the War of Resistance against Japan; China enters Level 1 combat readines

"Reporting to all commanders! Urgent military situation!"

"Speak!" the vice president said in a deep voice.

The staff officer took a deep breath and announced loudly, "Intelligence confirms that this afternoon, the Japanese defensive system along the Pingshi Railway suffered a devastating blow!"

"Xiaowangzhuang, Beiling, Heiniushan, Lijiazhuang, Zhangjiabao... a total of eighteen strongholds were all wiped out in just one afternoon!"

"The Japanese soldiers and traitors stationed there have all been annihilated!"

"Furthermore, clear tank track marks were found around several destroyed outposts!"

The moment the words were spoken, the command room erupted in chaos!

"What?!"

"Eighteen outposts? In just one afternoon?"

"My God... how is this possible?"

Even the seasoned CEOs, accustomed to weathering any storm, were stunned, their faces filled with utter shock!

They knew all too well how difficult it was to eliminate a Japanese stronghold!

This would require at least one main force regiment, and they would also need to carry a large amount of heavy firepower!

The Eighth Route Army has no shortage of main force regiments, but it lacks heavy firepower!

The heavy firepower mentioned here refers to cannons with a caliber of at least 60 mm.

For example, 60mm mortars, 75mm mountain guns, and even... 105mm howitzers!

But in reality, they wiped out eighteen Japanese strongholds in just one afternoon?

"You...you say it again? How many seats?" A CEO couldn't help but pick at his ear, wondering if he had misheard.

"Eighteen! Commander, it's confirmed to be eighteen! The strongholds between Wang County and Shi County have basically all been taken down!" the staff officer repeated confidently.

"etc!"

The chief of staff suddenly rushed to the map.

"Wang County, Shi County, tank tracks... This time, this place... Could it be...?"

A glint flashed in the vice president's eyes. He exchanged glances with the other executives, clearly indicating that they had all thought of the same thing.

"It was it! It must have done it!" a CEO exclaimed excitedly. "Only it has the capability!"

99A!

Or rather, the mysterious tank in the eyes of the bosses.

That mysterious tank that decimated two Japanese battalions and single-handedly took on ten Type 95 heavy tanks!

But another CEO immediately raised a question: "That's not right!"

"That tank is indeed formidable, but how easy is it to take down a stronghold? The Japanese aren't wooden stakes!"

"Those trenches and barbed wire outside the stronghold greatly restrict the mobility of tanks. No matter how powerful the tank gun is, it's impossible to wipe out every single enemy inside the stronghold, right?"

"There will always be some who slip through the net, or who resist by relying on the remnants of fortifications..."

These words resonated with everyone, and they all nodded in agreement.

Indeed, a single tank can take on a stronghold and destroy its main fortifications without any problem, but achieving "total annihilation" is almost impossible.

Just then, the chief of staff smiled: "What if... it wasn't just one tank acting alone?"

"What if that tank is responsible for the assault, while at the same time, an elite infantry, or rather... cavalry, is responsible for the charge and mopping up the remaining enemy?"

boom!

This hypothesis, like a bolt of lightning, instantly cleaved through all the fog!

Li Yunlong's cavalry company!

All the CEOs' eyes lit up!

The logic suddenly clicked!

"That's right! Li Yunlong's cavalry company! If they were equipped with that tank..."

"Combining firepower assault with rapid clearing! Tanks will take care of the fortified positions, and the remaining Japanese will be handled by cavalry... This... this is entirely possible to annihilate them all!"

"So, Li Yunlong not only made contact with the other side, but they also cooperated? And they went all out on this in their very first move?"

One of the bosses laughed heartily, all his previous worries vanishing.

"You little rascal! You made us worry for nothing!"

The atmosphere in the command center instantly became enthusiastic, and the leaders all showed expressions of satisfaction and excitement.

Finding a merger and partnership is the best news!

This makes the bosses happier than capturing eighteen strongholds!

and many more!

Eighteen?

"Something still doesn't feel right!"

The smile on the chief of staff's face gradually faded.

"Even if a tank and cavalry company could quickly capture one stronghold, there are eighteen of them!"

"How...how is this possible? They...they weren't injured?"

Even if we capture a stronghold and, under the cover of tanks, suffer only 10% casualties, we can only fight a maximum of three, and then we can't fight any more!

If a unit suffers 30% casualties, it must be substituted for rest and recuperation.

Any army that can still fight even with 50% casualties can be called an iron army!

Eighteen outposts, a casualty rate of 180%? Are you kidding me?

The chief of staff shook his head, feeling that his basic military knowledge had been challenged once again.

The command center fell silent again, and the expressions on the faces of the top executives became extremely complex.

Emotionally, they desperately hoped that this glorious achievement was created by Li Yunlong and that hero working together.

But rationally speaking, this efficiency was so high that it was unbelievable and completely beyond their comprehension.

Unless they capture the stronghold with less than 2% casualties each time!

But... how is that possible?

A tough battle, with a 2% casualty rate?

Are you kidding me!

The vice president gave a wry smile and rubbed his temples.

"I'm absolutely fascinated by that mysterious rescue hero!"

"I really want to see him right now and ask him in person how this battle was fought!"

The other bigwigs also sighed heavily, their eyes filled with the same longing and awe.

This extraordinary individual, who appeared out of nowhere, has repeatedly pushed the boundaries of their understanding!

. . .

at the same time.

Shen Wang and his entourage, who were being closely watched by the North China Army Headquarters and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, were at this moment... preparing to eat!

This afternoon, they attacked a total of eighteen strongholds.

Why are there eighteen?

Because we're out of ammunition!

With eighteen strongholds and nearly two thousand Japanese and puppet troops, Shen Wang only managed to produce a little over ten thousand rounds of ammunition, which were almost all used up.

There are still 40 firepower and 99A units that need to be replenished.

It was getting dark, so Shen Wang decided to rest for a while and call over his helpers for supplies.

In addition to ammunition, we also plan to bring some individual rations.

"Mr. Shen, why don't you let everyone eat first? We've seized quite a lot this time, over a dozen boxes of canned beef alone!"

Li Yunlong didn't understand why Shen Wang made everyone wait to eat the food he brought.

Food...isn't it just food?

Even if it tastes good, can it be better than canned beef?

Shen Wang smiled and said, "Commander Li, don't worry, we'll be there soon. I promise you won't be disappointed!"

Canned beef?

Although they seized a lot of Japanese beef cans from various strongholds, that stuff was hardly worthy of being called rations.

At first, the Japanese canned beef was quite authentic, made with pure beef, and tasted good.

But later, when the economy couldn't keep up, they resorted to using cow blood and offal.

Later on, it became beef blood soaked in coarse grains.

It's completely inedible!

Beside him, Sha Zhenjiang couldn't help but swallow hard: "Commander Li, good things come to those who wait. Besides, when has my master ever let you down?"

"I promise you, I'll make sure you eat it, and you'll never forget it for the rest of your life!"

Sha Zhenjiang had eaten individual soldier rations before, so he naturally knew what they tasted like.

Seeing this, Li Yunlong didn't insist any further: "Alright then, let's see what other surprises Mr. Shen has in store!"

As they were talking, the supply courier arrived.

"Little Sand, distribute the rations to everyone, and tell the brothers how to eat..."
