Rise from the sword

Chapter 224 Here Comes!

Seven o'clock in the evening.

In this cold winter season, the sky in Jindi is already dark, and the moonlight is also blocked by a few dark clouds tonight. Even the eyesight of the old Orion, without the illumination of fire lights, it is difficult to see things 50 meters away.

"Set off."

Looking up at the sky, Li Yunlong, holding a large blade, breathed out loudly.

clatter...
A series of slight rustling sounds sounded, and the soldiers of the two regiments picked up their weapons and equipment one after another, carrying ammunition boxes, leading mules and horses, and carrying all kinds of baggage, and stood in front of the officers of their respective battalions, companies and platoons. Under the command, they drove towards the predetermined destination in an orderly manner.

During this period, there was no confusion in the team of more than 2000 people, and there was not even a loud cry. Almost all the officers and soldiers kept their voices down as much as possible.

Behind the team, Zhao Gang stood on a high ground, watching the smooth and quiet flow of gray people blending into the night in front of him, and listening to the small movements of the troops, he let out a heavy breath, relaxing his tense nerves.

The Independent Regiment and the Xinyi Regiment cooperated in an all-round way and jointly organized a huge team of more than [-] people. They traveled hundreds of miles away from the garrison and went deep into the hinterland of the Japanese-occupied area to rob tens of tons of supplies transported by the Japanese military train.

In this battle, there was no follow-up support and no friendly forces, and they relied entirely on themselves from beginning to end.

It is the first time for the independent regiment to undertake a combat mission of this scale and nature.

Zhao Gang was already under a lot of pressure in his heart, and he was always worried about accidents.

After Li Yunlong decided to lead the team to wipe out the devil brigade in Wendian Village, Ding Wei's identity was not suitable, and the job of unified command finally fell on Zhao Gang's head, which made him feel a sense of Alexander.

In this mission, if any accident occurs and the devils discover it in advance, the blow to the combat plan will be devastating. It will mean that more than 30 tons of medicines and a large number of mechanical equipment that can know weapons will be far away from the troops.

Fortunately, so far, so good.

Even though the devils in Wendian Village were very vigilant, the railway was guarded 24 hours a day, and there were always patrols around, but they still couldn't find the Independence Regiment and Xinxinyi Regiment hiding five kilometers away from them.

And when he saw these skilled and smooth fighters in front of him, the tension in Zhao Gang's heart suddenly gradually disappeared.

Whether it is an independent regiment or a new regiment, it is a core regiment that has been established for more than two years, and it is an absolute elite regiment.

Needless to say, the new regiment, the old troops brought out by Li Yunlong, whether they are officers or soldiers, are experienced in many battles and are at the level of the top main force regiment. Since Ding Wei took over this year, not only has the combat effectiveness not declined at all, but also Steadily rising.

As for the independent regiment, since Li Yunlong's arrival, he has gone through so many actual battles, supplemented a large number of excellent grassroots officers trained by the headquarters, plus the weapons and equipment provided by Boss Chen, as well as his cultural and knowledge education. The troops at the regiment level, the entire Republic of China, and the independent regiment deserved the number one.

Even the so-called elite group of German weapon masters had to go around when they saw it.

Moreover, for this mission, they have detailed information and formulated a detailed combat plan before the war.

Although the battle cannot go completely according to the plan, some unpredictable accidents are inevitable. After all, no one can predict everything, but the confidence brought by these fighters to Zhao Gang's heart, next, no matter what accidents occur, They are all capable of coping.

Seeing that the last few troops were also on their way, Zhao Gang touched the guns on his waist, and followed them with strides.

······
Ten past eight at night.

It is about one kilometer away from the railway line of Wendian Village.

Li Yunlong squatted halfway, holding a knife, and looked at the assembled battalion and company commanders.

"Act according to the predetermined plan."

Scanning around, Li Yunlong repeated the battle plan he had made long ago:

"Ding Wei, Zhang Dabiao, the two of you lead the third battalion of the independent regiment, the artillery company, and the transport company, plus the two battalions of the new regiment, go to the railway line to deal with the Japanese army column."

"Immediately transfer the things along the road after getting them, pass the bridge of Luoshui Lake and then go up the mountain. When throwing stones, remember to put some oil in the lake water."

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

Ding Wei and Zhang Dabiao nodded at the same time.

"Wang Gensheng, Cheng He, you two take your respective teams to rescue the refugees imprisoned by the devils, and kill all the little devils over there. As for the puppet soldiers, most of them are bandits and bullies brought by the devils from nearby. , when the time comes to check, kill everyone who should be killed."

Li Datuan's eyes flashed sharply.

There are only more than 30 devils guarding the place where the devils detain refugees and captured civilians, and there are more than 100 useless puppet troops. This force is easy for the special team of the independent regiment to deal with. The new spy platoon he led was almost foolproof.

"it is good."

Cheng He and Wang Gensheng nodded at the same time.

They have already read the information of Wendian Village and know what these devils and puppet soldiers have done, especially those puppet soldiers, relying on the backing of devils, some of them are doing all kinds of evil, so the tone of their responses is murderous steaming.

Even if the group leader didn't say anything, the two of them didn't intend to let the group of beasts go.

Afterwards, Li Yunlong looked at the company commanders of the two independent regiments.

"There are two devil brigades stationed in more than 30 places around Wendian Village. If we do something here, they will definitely come to support. The distance of more than 30 miles can be reached by a devil car in an hour at most."

"Both of you take a platoon each to plant mines in their path."

"Each person takes [-] pieces, and bury them all on the road. Remember to bury them in sections to delay the devil's marching speed as much as possible. Then you monitor the devil's situation on the road. Remember to notify immediately if there is any unexpected situation."

Finally, Li Yunlong reminded:
"Even if the delay fails, don't fight the devils, retreat immediately, and report to the political commissar."

For a brigade-level devil garrison, even if it is a semi-brigade of 500 people, the support is at least the size of two squadrons with more than 300 devils, and they carry heavy weapons. A platoon of troops can't buy much time to stop them, and there is no need to die in vain .

"Yes."

The two captains nodded.

Li Yunlong looked at Zhao Gang and said, "Old Zhao, you can lead the guards here to unify the command."

This time, the troops are fighting on multiple fronts and need a unified and adjusted command, otherwise there may be problems with the cooperation between the various troops.

"it is good."

Zhao Gang nodded.

"First Battalion, Second Battalion, follow me."

Qiang, lifting the big blade, Li Yunlong stood up and walked towards Wendian Village.

Behind him, over a thousand soldiers from the first battalion, the second battalion, and six artillery squads of the artillery company followed. The long line quickly disappeared into the night, thinking about the devil brigade's station.

"Third Battalion, Transport Platoon."

"Artillery Company..."

"New group..."

Immediately afterwards, Ding Wei, Zhang Dabiao, Yan Sheng, and Huang Baowang of the transportation company also led their respective troops, leading hundreds of large mules and horses, and headed for the railway on the other side of Wendian Village.

"Walk."

The last ones to set off were the two company commanders who were in charge of containing the nearby devil garrison.

The two of them brought a platoon of soldiers, nearly [-] German-made large tumors, and some self-made new gadgets, ready to let the devils hone their night-time demining skills.

······
At 12:30 in the evening, there was still an hour before the arrival of the devil army column.

At the junction of the railway and highway in Wendian Village, Zhang Dabiao, Ding Wei, Yan Sheng, and Huang Baowang met in a hidden place after completing their deployment of troops.

"The explosives have been laid."

Zhang Dabiao, who was in charge of laying explosives to blow up the railway tracks, spoke first:

"There is a devil's railway sentry post 300 meters away from the intersection where we started. There are two little devils inside. I buried the explosives directly next to their sentry post, and the distance is only more than 30 meters."

"These two little devils are hiding in the guard post to enjoy the fire, and they should be able to blow up together to death."

Grinning his white teeth, Zhang Dabiao's tone was gloomy.

If it weren't for the fear of scaring the snake, he would have wanted to kill the two little devils to relieve his anger. Anyway, it's freezing cold at night, and there won't be other devils coming. As long as he moves quickly, the little devils won't be on the alert. Time would do, but he held back.

But the brave man of Yigao actually buried the explosives 30 meters away from the devil's sentry post. Anyway, the little devil locked the sentry post tightly and closed it, and there was wind outside, so the little devil couldn't hear the movement.

Tens of kilograms of explosives, although they are all black powder, are not as powerful as yellow explosives, but they are not enough to withstand the large amount. In addition to the gravel around the railway, after the explosion, the chances of the little devils at the sentry post surviving are terrible is very small.

"I'm ready here too."

Yan Sheng then said:

"According to the length of the devil's army column and the position of the devil's armored vehicle, I deployed the two artillery positions in suitable positions. As soon as the little devil's armored vehicle is ready to get off the railway, it can fire immediately."

"Guaranteed to kill the little devil's armored vehicle in the first round."

His tone was full of confidence.

Although the information said that the little devil's armored vehicle would be located 400 to 100 meters before and after the military column, and the position was not very fixed, but the error of a mere [-] meters would not cause any problems for the artillery company.

The one-and-a-half minute conversion time of Devil's armored vehicles is their culprit. The artillery company has prepared a firepower network composed of four cannons for each armored vehicle, which is definitely enough.

"The transportation company is fine."

Huang Baowang said: "The trucks and tools that are ready to carry the machine have been assembled and hidden near the intersection. It only takes 10 to [-] minutes for me to complete the shipment."

The job of the transportation platoon is to transport heavy machine parts, that is, those two big guys that are nearly a ton.

As for the other machine parts, they are not heavy, the largest one weighs more than 100 kilograms, and a big mule can fight up the mountain alone. The soldiers of the two battalions brought by Ding Wei were burdened.

The three battalions have a total of more than 400 soldiers, and it is enough for no one to carry thirty catties.

"it is good."

"When the time comes, you must act quickly."

"Strive to resolve the battle within 10 minutes, including the loading and unloading of medicines and machinery, and it should not exceed an hour."

Ding Wei nodded: "Also, tell the soldiers not to damage the medicines and machinery as much as possible, and don't throw grenades around and blow them up, otherwise Li Yunlong will drag his machete and chop us up."

"Yes."

Zhang Dabiao responded with a smile.

If the machine or the medicine were accidentally damaged, the head of the team might really chase them down with a machete.

····
On the road on the two wings of Wendian Village.

The two company commanders who were in charge of laying the mines also completed the laying of the mines. At this time, they led the troops to hide in the predetermined position, and informed the soldiers of the guard platoon who came to inquire about the specific actions.

"Every 500 to 700 meters, I prepared a minefield, and each minefield buried fifty mines."

The company commander's tone was full of confidence.

Being selected to do this task proved that he is a master of thunder in the independent group.

The company commander continued: "The minefields are all located at the turning point of the road, or after all, the road cannot be bypassed. I can guarantee that the devil's reinforcements will definitely not pass through within two and a half hours."

Demining at night, especially those veterans who are responsible for laying mines, is not an easy task.

As a company commander, he naturally knew that the Devils used metal detectors to clear the mines. To deal with this kind of detectors, the answer is actually very simple. A piece of iron will be mistaken for a mine, and if the iron is removed, the mine will not be detected. Find.

Although the landmines they used were made from German-made large tumors, it couldn’t be easier to take out the explosives inside, put them into clay pots, stuff some stones, and install fuzes. It can be completed in a few minutes, because there are specific combat missions issued before departure, this time, he has prepared a lot of these mines.

Two and a half hours was still his conservative estimate.

·····
On the other side, Li Yunlong also prepared his position, and his deployment was the same as what Zhang Dabiao said before.

Only on a larger scale.

Three companies plus half of the artillery company's artillery firepower is deployed on the front line of defense. One of the companies is a reserve team. It uses not strong troops to lure the devils to launch a group attack, and then the four companies attack in two directions on the flanks, dividing and surrounding the devils. .

After the last circle, cut off the devil's retreat and completely surrounded the devil.

Two battalions, four companies, one artillery company and one artillery company, with a total of 1000 people, were preparing to wipe out all the little devils in Wendian Village.

By the time the soldiers in the guard platoon gathered the news from various places into Zhao Gang's hands, it was already [-]:[-] midnight. At this time, in the vision of Zhao Gang standing on the top of the mountain, a bright beam of light lit up in the distance. He saw The headlights of the locomotives pulled by the Devils.

"coming."

Zhao Gang took a deep breath, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"coming."

The first battalion and the second battalion were deployed in the encirclement positions outside Wendian Village. Li Yunlong held up his binoculars and looked at the army columns of devils approaching in the distance. He grinned his big white teeth.

"coming."

At the intersection of railways and highways, Zhang Dabiao put down the binoculars in his hand when he heard the sound of steam chirping and clanging, and put his hand on the lead wire of the explosive.

"The devil train is coming, get ready."

Yansheng ran to an artillery position and personally operated a [-]-type infantry artillery.

　There is one more chapter, but it will be very late.
