The Japanese did so, but they did not choose to break through. Instead, they chose to open a passage to allow reinforcements to enter Yu County.

In Kanda Masatane's opinion, Li Yunlong's troops have the ability to destroy the field artillery regiment. If his troops leave the city and break out without cover, they may suffer heavy losses if they are covered by the artillery fire of Li Yunlong's troops.

There are still many civilians in Yu County, and Li Yunlong certainly would not dare to carry out large-scale artillery coverage of Yu County. As long as Li Yunlong dared to do so, he would immediately report the news to the North China Command.

This is also one of the reasons why Kanda Masatane is confident. As long as he occupies the county town, Li Yunlong will not dare to use a large number of artillery even if he attacks the city. He has air superiority, reinforcements around him, and a city to defend. As long as he waits for the reinforcements to arrive, the troops besieging Yu County will withdraw, and he can even take advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack.

On the battlefield filled with poisonous gas, the 23rd Regiment began to prepare for a counterattack after receiving ammunition replenishment.

"Baga, you bastards, where are your gas masks?"

"Sir, the commander, when you put on the gas mask..."

The two captains lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"There are many?"

"There are only about a thousand in total."

"Everyone gather together, give it to the Second Infantry Battalion, and recapture the position for me!"

"Hayi!"

Soon, the 2nd Infantry Battalion of the 23rd Regiment, wearing gas masks, rushed into the position filled with poisonous gas.

"Strange, why didn't I hear the screams of the Eighth Route Army?"

"The last time we used poison gas bombs, the enemies were screaming."

"Perhaps all these people are dead?"

“It’s also possible that they evacuated.”

A group of Japanese soldiers wearing gas masks were talking loudly to each other, trying to encourage each other. Many of them had psychological trauma after exchanging fire with the independent column this time, and were deeply afraid that the Eighth Route Army's rockets would fall on their heads again.

"Hurry up and take back the position!"

A Japanese lieutenant, holding his command knife, shouted orders.

At this time, on the position, the soldiers wearing gas masks and wrapping their hands with white cloth were staring into the distance. When they saw a group of Japanese devils appear, they immediately aimed their weapons at the devils.

"Get closer and hit me!"

The company commander wore a gas mask and notified and reminded everyone one by one, and from time to time he looked up at the approaching Japanese soldiers.

When the Japanese were about fifty meters away.

"beat!"

At the command, the soldiers hiding in the trenches quickly stood up and pulled the trigger at the Japanese.

The sounds of light and heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, and rifles mixed together, and the Japanese soldiers walking in the front fell down like wheat being cut. These Japanese soldiers wearing gas masks never imagined that there were defenders on the position filled with poisonous gas.

After a group of people fell down in an instant, the Japanese soldiers behind them were just about to counterattack when a burst of artillery fire was heard, followed by a series of explosions. The artillery of the mortar position behind the position covered the area of ​​100 to 200 meters in front of the position with fire.

"rush!"

After killing this wave of attacking Japanese devils, the defenders in the position immediately rushed out of the trenches and launched an attack on Nanlou Town where the Japanese devils were located.

On the other side, the Japanese 47th Regiment was also launching an attack on the Wenchang Mountain position.

The 763rd Regiment stationed in Wenchang Mountain received ammunition supplies, as well as grenade launchers and other weapons sent by Li Yunlong. After seeing the Japanese launching a charge, they immediately counterattacked, and dozens of grenade launcher shells continued to fall into the Japanese crowd.

The fire from light and heavy machine guns caused the densely charged Japanese soldiers to fall one after another on the road of attack.

"Damn it, why didn't I realize before that the Japs were so easy to beat?"

Liang Dajun, the commander of the 763rd Regiment, watched the Japanese being killed one after another through a telescope, and said to the political commissar beside him with a smile.

"The Japs have lost their artillery, and their only remaining weapon is the infantry. We have the advantage of terrain and firepower, just like when we charged the Japs' positions before, it's like shooting. How can it be difficult to defeat them?"

"That's true. I originally thought Li Yunlong's plan to wipe out the Japanese Sixth Division was a pipe dream, but now it seems it's not impossible. It seems that if we fight the Japanese in the future, we have to find a way to destroy their artillery before the battle begins!"

"It's a pity that we don't have air superiority. We can only watch the Japanese planes wreak havoc above our heads. I wonder how many casualties Commander Li has suffered?"

Liang Dajun nodded and looked towards the direction of Nanlou Town with some concern. The area was covered by poison gas and the situation on the battlefield could not be seen clearly for the time being.

"Ok?"

At this moment, Liang Dajun suddenly saw a group of soldiers rushing out from the poison gas, and they were rapidly approaching Nanlou Town with the help of the craters left by the previous bombing.

At this time, in the Japanese hospital in Taiyuan City, Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko was wrapped like a dumpling and pushed out of the emergency room.

Chapter 259 Li Yunlong is angry with the devil prince

"How is your Highness?"

When a group of Japanese officers saw the doctor coming out, they quickly surrounded him. They were very worried that the doctor would say to them, "Smith, Marseilles!", and then they might all commit seppuku to thank the emperor.

"Exposed to the poisonous gas for a long time, his body has developed extensive ulcers, but fortunately, we have medicine to treat it. He inhaled some of the poisonous gas, but fortunately, the amount is not large, so he is not in immediate danger of death."

After hearing this, all the Japanese soldiers, including Ichiro Nanata, breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s okay as long as you’re not dead, it ....

Even if you die, please don't die in Taiyuan, don't die next to yourself, otherwise you will be the one who suffers.

The Japanese doctor thought for a moment and said, "But I find one thing very strange. Your Highness was clearly wearing a gas mask, and the mask was sealed very well. Why did he still inhale poison gas?"

Hearing this, Ichiro Nanada and a group of Japanese officers looked at each other. They didn't know why: "We will investigate."

"Your Highness needs to rest during this period and drink plenty of water. He also needs some effective medicine. There should be places that study this kind of poison gas."

After giving a few more instructions, the Japanese doctor left the emergency room. After returning, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, the patient was rescued, otherwise they, the doctors, might have been in trouble as well.

A ward had been cleared out and became the exclusive ward for Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko. At this time, Prince Guizi had slowly woken up and saw a group of officers surrounding him. The effect of the anesthetic had worn off. Although his life was saved, he was in pain all over.

At this time, the Guizi Prince felt that he was being bitten by something, and the pain became more and more clear as the Guizi Prince became more and more awake.

Reluctantly moving his eyes, the Japanese prince saw that he was wrapped like a dumpling, with white bandages all over his body, and Nanata Ichiro was covering him.

"water……"

The devil prince spoke, then immediately widened his eyes, and his voice seemed to change, becoming very hoarse.

"Your Highness, you're awake!"

When Ichiro Nanada saw that Prince Guizi had woken up, he gently put down the blanket in his hand, walked to the table beside the bed, picked up a glass of water, knelt down and carefully fed the water to His Royal Highness the Prince.

Don't ask why he had to kneel down. Now Ichiro Nanada has only one idea, which is to quickly send His Royal Highness the Prince to Peking, or to Fengtian or even back to the base camp for treatment. Don't leave him in Taiyuan. If something happens, no one can take the responsibility.

"Gulu!"

Even when drinking water, Prince Guizi still felt a great pain in his throat, but he still endured the pain and drank the water.

At the same time, I also remembered why I was here.

He turned his head slightly to look at Nanada Ichiro and asked his doubts.

"Who attacked the airport?"

Nanata Ichiro lowered his head, tidying up the saliva that had uncontrollably dripped from the corners of Prince Guizi's mouth, and whispered, "Your Highness, you need to rest now. I will report these matters to you when you are well again."

Ichiro Nanata did not want to tell Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko what was happening, for he was afraid that the prince would be angry to death. Even if the prince died, he could not die in front of him, but in Taiyuan.

But at this moment, a staff officer hurried into the ward: "Report, Your Excellency, the Division Commander, the Sixth Division has sent a telegram asking for assistance. They are in urgent need of ammunition..."

Before the staff officer could finish his words, he saw Ichiro Nanada staring at him as if he were a dead person, and he immediately took back the rest of his words. Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko also heard it all clearly.

"What happened to the Sixth Division? Who attacked the airport? Who? Tell me!"

Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko struggled to get up, but he felt severe pain in his body, forcing him to lie down again. However, when he lay down, his back touched the thickened mattress, and he still felt a piercing pain.

"Your Highness, no..."

Before Nanada Ichiro could finish, Prince Asaka Naruhiko gritted his teeth and said, "I! Let! You! Speak!"

"Hayi!"

Looking at Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko's expression, Nanada Ichiro finally decided to speak out. He took a deep breath and said, "The Sixth Division encountered the siege of the main force of the Eighth Route Army in Yu County. The Sixth Division has suffered heavy losses and requests tactical guidance."

"The attackers at the airport were Li Yunlong's Jin-Cha-Ji Independent Column. The attacker seems to be a man called... Doctor, Doctor, call a doctor!"

When Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko heard the three words "Li Yunlong", he felt his blood pressure rise.

It’s this Li Yunlong again, this Li Yunlong again, and this damn Li Yunlong again.

How many times had Li Yunlong ruined his own plans? He had captured Ping'an County, annihilated the 13th Regiment, and conquered Datong. He even used the gifts that Kuroda Shigenori had sent him to transport a large amount of supplies from Datong.

I finally thought of a way to eliminate him without causing any harm to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong was unable to watch his troops wailing and screaming in the poisonous gas, unable to do anything.

Instead, he was struggling and wailing in the poisonous gas, and now he was lying on the hospital bed with wounds all over his body.

Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko didn't even listen to what Nanata Ichiro said next and fainted.

After hearing that the prince had fainted again, several doctors rushed into the ward in a panic, and then sent His Royal Highness the Prince, who had just been pushed out of the emergency room not long ago, back to the emergency room to continue the rescue.

The prince cannot die in their hospital, and certainly not at the hands of these doctors, otherwise they will all be buried with His Royal Highness the Prince.

And after the Japanese prince fainted from anger again.

Li Yunlong's troops have successfully captured Nanlou Town.

The troops rushed out of the poison gas and caught the Japanese off guard. The Japanese 23rd Regiment, which had not yet repaired its defensive positions, retreated hastily again.

Now Li Yunlong's troops are only three kilometers away from Yun County. At the same time, the Japanese have also dug trenches in the last three kilometers of the city of Yun County, preparing for a decisive battle.

The attack north of Yun County was also very smooth. After eliminating the artillery company of the Japanese 45th Regiment, Zhuzi led the Type 92 infantry artillery battalion into the front line and began to provide fire support for the attacking forces. Du Qingming's artillery was very accurate.

One artillery shell can destroy the Japanese firepower point and open a gap for the attacking troops.

The attacking force from the north was large in number, and as a large number of National Army soldiers obtained weapons, the Japanese became even more unable to resist. If the Japanese soldiers of the 45th Regiment had not retreated quickly, they might have been directly surrounded by the troops coming from both wings.

"Report, telegram from headquarters, no fewer than thirty Japanese planes have been spotted flying over Yu County!"

In Li Yunlong's command center, a sudden telegram was read out. Li Yunlong heard it, took the telegram and took a look at it.
