Rise from the sword

Chapter 140 Annihilation
Even if the Independent Regiment now has an advantage in strength, firepower, position, and even the quality of soldiers compared to devils, there is not much difference.

But Li Yunlong still charged without hesitation.

Just like the new group.

The second battalion and the third battalion, with a total of [-] hundred troops, launched a high-speed charge against the devils, like a tiger descending a mountain, the distance between the two sides was quickly shortened, and some parts even opened up. All suffered heavy casualties.

There is an old saying that applies not only to fighting but also to war.

Beat up the drowning dog.

Now when the devils intersperse, encountering the impact of the independent regiment, the formation is scattered, the organization is chaotic, the command is lost, and the combat effectiveness is greatly reduced. The troops are only more than one kilometer away from the Devils artillery position.

At this distance, troops charging at high speed will be able to charge in no more than 10 minutes.

After being charged and approached by the infantry, the devil artillery is just a display.

If the Japanese and the Japanese open their positions, set up their formations, and exchange firepower, the independent regiment can still win, but at that time, because the devils have already established a temporary defensive position, the artillery squadron has enough time to adjust its position, and the casualties of the independent regiment will be reduced. much higher.

So Li Datuan gave up the firepower preparation without hesitation, and directly launched the whole army to charge.

The artillery company in the rear also let go of their arms and shelled at full speed. In the devil's position, dense shells fell like rain.

······
"Come with me!"

In the assault team of the Second Battalion, Commander Li brandished a shell gun in one hand and a large blade in the other, and charged in the front line of the team.

There is even a vague possibility of gradually charging to the front row.

Along the way, when encountering devils, Li Yunlong first raised his hand and swung the shuttle. If he was not dead, he stabbed him to death with a big knife.

It's not that Li Datuan gave up hand-to-hand combat. He always believed that killing the devil with a big knife is the most exciting thing, but now that the independent regiment has more weapons and ammunition, if he doesn't use a gun, the devil will be snatched by other soldiers.

Helpless, Li Datuan had no choice but to show off his regiment's top marksmanship, shooting one kid at a time.

At this time, he was also in the Qianfeng team, seeing his regiment leader charging in the front row, Zhao Gang jumped anxiously.

It's outrageous for a good regiment commander to give up and insist on rushing to be a commando, and he still rushes to the front row, although the regiment commander of the Eighth Route Army is dressed the same as ordinary soldiers.But the devil's bullets don't have eyes. If the **** is hit by a devil's bullet, who will lead the independent group?

"Monk, protect the head of the group well."

"If something happens to the head of the team, the labor and management will ask you."

Although Zhao Gang has been exercising with the army every day since he came to the independent regiment, his physical strength has been greatly improved, but compared with the old fritters of the commando team, there is still a lot of gap. He can't catch up with the assault forward to stop the leader. Can get angry at the monk.

Having known Li Yunlong for so long, Zhao Gang knew that it was impossible for Commander Li to charge without taking the lead, so he just asked a tall monk to help.

"Yes."

The rise of the monk's killing, the two Desert Eagles in his hand made low-pitched sounds one after another, and each shot shattered a devil.

Hearing the order from the political commissar, the monk remembered his duty as a guard, and rushed to follow Li Yunlong.

——Go and grab the head with the team leader.

·····
Careless...

Deceived by Li Yunlong...

Feelings of remorse emerged in Koizumi Taze's mind. Seeing the Eighth Route Army all over the mountains and plains, and seeing the sudden dense rain of mortar bombardment, at this moment, he finally understood.

Counted myself.

What Li Yunlong and his troops showed before was all fake, to paralyze him.

It's not that there are no more shells, but that their use is deliberately restricted to give him the illusion that he doesn't have enough ammunition.It is not that the loss of troops is serious, resulting in insufficient troops, and a large number of recruits are used, but that the recruits are trained through night battles and their growth is accelerated.The siege of the gun tower in Shuangma Village was just to attract him to come to support.Moreover, the strength of this independent regiment may be far more than the 700 he expected.

Under the wrong report, he made the wrong decision.

If he had sent troops to establish defensive positions on the two wings during the attack, or sent scouts to spread the scouts on the two wings, the situation would not be in such a desperate situation now. ——Surrounded by people, and there is no defensive position to block it, I can only watch helplessly as the opponent divides and surrounds our own forces.

Unfortunately, no if.

No wonder he was able to make the imperial army suffer a lot many times. Li Yunlong is really extraordinary.

Suddenly shocked, Koizumi Tazawa also broke out fiercely in his heart. He drew out his katana sword and brandished it. With the last madness and the pride of the so-called bushido spirit, he charged towards the independent regiment.

On the battlefield of gunpowder, the sky is full of shouts and killings.

After more than an hour of fighting, the gunpowder smoke began to dissipate. Except for a few devils who escaped, the independent regiment won a complete victory in this battle, and the more than [-] devils supporting them were almost wiped out.

And the devils also showed their so-called Bushido spirit, almost all of them were jade pieces of the Great Japanese Empire, and none of them survived.

Including the devil's artillery squadron.

At the last moment, the Devil Artillery Squadron blew up all the cannons, and then carried a rifle bayonet to launch a jade-breaking charge. Finally, it got what it wanted, and no one was killed by the independent regiment.

···
On the road, the devil artillery position.

Looking distressed at the shattered cannon, Li Datuan stuck the shell gun in his hand in his waist.

Pity.

If a mountain cannon can be captured, then the cannon tower of the devils in Shuangma Village will be much simpler.

Then, he said loudly.

"Quickly count the casualties and clean up the battlefield."

The battle lasted for an hour, and it was easy for Li Datuan, who had practiced martial arts since childhood and had a strong body, to come here. At this moment, Li Datuan felt that he could fight for another three hours.

Beside him, the soldiers of the Second Battalion and the Third Battalion were also full of morale, their faces glowing red, and it was impossible to tell that they had gone through a brutal war.

A good diet finally showed its effect. In terms of physical strength, the soldiers of the independent regiment had no disadvantages compared with the devils.

"The number of soldiers killed in battle is estimated to be around 260, and the total casualties may be no less than [-]."

Shen Quan is worthy of being an intellectual, he and Zhao Gang made some statistics and came up with a rough figure.

His tone was sad.

Even if there is an error in the rough statistics, it will not be too large, with a maximum error of 30 people.

In other words, this time the ambush, plus the number of injured, the number of independent regiment attrition will be around 330 people.

Take a quarter of the attacking force.

A quarter of the casualties, for any army, can be said to be heavy casualties.

"Organize a force to support the gun tower in Shuangma Village, and the rest quickly cleared up the battlefield, and then retreated to Yang Village with supplies for repairs."

Li Yunlong's tone did not change at all.

Annihilation of 350 devils and a reduction of [-] people are already very good.

It's a big win.

Although the independent regiment had the upper hand in terms of firepower and troops, the devils were not bad. Under the desperate attack of the little devils, several teeth were knocked out of the weak independent regiment, and more than 300 people were lost, which was not small.

but····

"Old Li, big victory. We wiped out about [-] devils, including an artillery squadron. The devils lost three [-]-type mountain guns, [-] cars, and a large number of mules and motorcycles."

Zhao Gang's tone was excited.

The little devil is not rich, and soldiers are scarce.

The elimination of [-] devils is enough to make the little devil feel bad for a long time, and make the already insufficient troops even more stretched. There are also three cannons and [-] cars. These things are all a major blow to the devils.

As for casualties...
There are casualties in battle.

Every soldier in the Independent Regiment is ready to die, including Commander Li Da.

If he was afraid of death, he wouldn't rush to the front line and slash people with a big knife.

Li Yunlong's 'bad habit' is also one of the reasons why the independent regiment's morale is so strong and its combat effectiveness is so strong-the regiment leader personally hacks and kills devils, and is not afraid of death. Officials are not afraid of death, how can the subordinates be afraid?Although there are many mistakes in the ancient thinking mode, at this moment, it has played a great role in forging an army made of iron.

Zhao Gang also thought of this. He looked at Li Yunlong, who was covered in devil's blood, with complicated eyes.

"Five hundred devils, haha, the devils in Shou County are finished."

Hearing the news, Li Yunlong was immediately overjoyed: "There are at most 800 devils in Shou County, and now we have almost killed more than half of them. Next, what will he do to stop the attack of labor and capital?"

It is impossible to mobilize all the devil garrisons in Shouxian County. At least one squadron of defenders needs to be left, otherwise labor and capital will occupy Shouxian County. In addition, there are [-] new artillery towers and three old artillery towers that need to be garrisoned.

The pitiful troops of the devils are not enough at all.

Coupled with this battle, before there is no new reinforcements, he is afraid that the little devil will not dare to go out.

"Yes, pull out all the blockhouses around Shou County." Zhao Gang said excitedly.

"I don't know if those old gunhouses in Jiazhuang are part of this business?" Leader Li muttered.

Half an hour later, Li Yunlong personally led a support team of 400 people to Shuangma Village to support the first battalion in attacking the Shuangma Village gun tower.

Although the devil's artillery tower is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but in the absence of military support, in the face of superior forces, no matter how strong the fortress is, it will be fully worn to death. Moreover, the devil's artillery tower is far from being strong, it is just a bully It's just the Eighth Route Army without heavy weapons.

After Li Yunlong almost wiped out the support troops in Shou County, night gradually fell.

Under the night, the gun towers in Shuangma Village did not last long. The mortars blew up the searchlights, and the soldiers approached to suppress the firepower of the machine guns. After the flares ran out, the blind devils were unable to stop the independent regiment from approaching, and were finally thrown into the ground by grenades. Machine gun holes, explosive packs close to the wall of the gun tower...
As a result, the artillery building in Shuangma Village was easily taken down by the greatly strengthened First Battalion.

In the early morning of the next day, the entire independent regiment withdrew to Yangcun.

"In yesterday's battle, the regiment suffered nearly 350 casualties, including 70 killed and [-] seriously injured."

Without rest, Zhang Dabiao, who had not slept all night, immediately counted yesterday's casualties.

In the battle to ambush the devil brigade that wiped out 500 people, the second battalion level and the third battalion paid the price of reducing 280 soldiers, and in the subsequent battle to attack the artillery tower, another 430 independent regiment soldiers were killed.Counting the seriously injured, the Independence Regiment lost [-] people overnight.

In addition to the casualties in the previous month, the independent regiment lost more than 800 people in a short period of time.The entire team changed from a total of nearly 400 people to less than 600 in an instant.

"A total of 570 devils were wiped out yesterday, including one lieutenant and two majors."

Zhang Dabiao continued to report.

The devils were wiped out, and the independent regiment had enough time to count the results.

Excluding the [-] or so devils who escaped, the [-] devils who supported Shuangma Village from Shou County and the [-] devils stationed in the gun tower of Shuangma Village were all killed.

If you count the previous battle results, during this period, the independent regiment wiped out nearly a thousand devils, but the independent regiment did not have a channel to get the specific casualties of the devils, so it did not know its share of the results.

"It's a pity, Lieutenant Commander, devil." Li Yunlong clicked his tongue.

Koizumi Tazawa finally died under a stray bullet, which made it a pity for Li Yunlong, who had always wanted to compete with the devil to see whether his sword skills were better than the devil's oriental sword skills.

"Currently, there are 100 soldiers in our regiment that can still be put into combat. There are only more than 70 mortar shells left, which are basically exhausted. There are still enough bullets left, but there are not many grenades."

A wounded warrior cannot fight until he recovers.

Excluding the wounded, there are only 100 people left in the Independence Regiment. As for the militiamen that were called yesterday, they have already returned to their respective villages.

"It's okay, the new cannon has arrived."

Looking at the lighted iron box communicator in his hand, Li Yunlong smiled all over his face: "A new batch of weapons and ammunition is coming soon."

Today is the day when Brother Chen Feng came to deliver the promised [-]-type infantry artillery. As long as he has these two [-]-type infantry artillery, unless the devil immediately sends troops to support Shouxian, the dozen or so artillery towers around Shouxian will be his. In less than five days, he could remove all the contents of the bag.

In this way, at least more than 50 tons of weapons and ammunition will be available soon.

In addition, I don't know if the original devil's gun tower counts?
Li Yunlong planned to ask Chen Fan this time.

If counted, another nine tons of weapons and ammunition were obtained.

"Walk."

Li Yunlong greeted Zhang Dabiao, Zhao Gang and others: "Go and receive our [-]-type infantry artillery, and then take a day off before pulling out all the devil's artillery towers."

Afterwards, the two headed to the old place with hundreds of people including the artillery company.

Although they had been busy all night and didn't sleep, at this moment, when they thought of the upcoming cannons and shells, everyone in the independent regiment felt full of strength.

·····
Shou County.

The twenty or so devil soldiers who fled back in a hurry reported the failure to many people in Heidao who were stationed in Shou County.

At first, many people in Heishima didn't believe that a brigade of 500 people could be completely wiped out. He predicted that it might fail, but in the end most of them escaped. After all, this is an imperial brigade with complete firepower.

But after waiting all night, he realized that I'm afraid... he was really wiped out.

"Take Taiyuan..."

Many people in Heidao didn't have time to rejoice that they had once again become the leader of Shou County, so they quickly notified Taiyuan of the news.
