Rise from the sword

Chapter 472 Li Yunlong: It seems that we have to do it again.

"Recoilless gun!"

In a semi-buried bunker in the fourth position, Yamamoto gritted his teeth.

By questioning the soldiers in the front-line stronghold, the well-informed Kazuki Yamamoto quickly understood why the outer positions of the fourth stronghold were completely cleared in just three hours.

The Independence Regiment has new weapons.

A recoilless gun that can be used by a single soldier, and its power is comparable to that of the Type [-] infantry gun.

Those strong fortifications and machine gun fortresses that focused on strengthening the defense against mortars were easily wiped out one by one by the sudden appearance of direct-firing recoilless guns.

"Where did so many new weapons come from..."

Shinji Kozuo on the side stopped cursing halfway and stopped immediately.

The source of the weapon is very clear to the empire, and it has been investigated for a long time, but...

"Are there any other new weapons?"

At this time, Yamamoto was asking a squadron leader on the front line.

After receiving the news of the denial, Yamamoto breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really frightened by the endless new weapons of the independent regiment. The range of the Bofors mountain gun suddenly increased by three kilometers, and a new powerful recoilless gun appeared. If another weapon appeared.

His heart accepts it.

But the frontline positions may not be able to bear it.

"General Yamamoto."

Koza Shinji looked at Yamamoto.

Yamamoto understood what Shinji Kozuo meant—the new weapons of the independent regiment emerged endlessly, and it was impossible to defend against them. If the consumption continued, the situation would definitely undergo unpredictable changes.

The ghost knows what new weapons the Independence Regiment will suddenly pull out.

Therefore, a response must be made in advance.

"Fortify the third and fourth strongholds, strengthen the strength of the strongholds."

Yamamoto said:

"Move the long-range cannon position to the front of the first stronghold."

The offensive plan could no longer be accelerated. Materials and soldiers needed a very long time to prepare, so time was the only option. There are a large number of semi-buried strongholds in Sidao, so they can block the independent regiment for two months no matter what.

At this time, Yamamoto felt very lucky. Fortunately, he made sufficient preparations at the beginning, built four strongholds, and left enough buffers.

······
Heyuan County.

"Chu Yunfei is here?"

At dawn, the battle was completely over and the last devil was eliminated. Li Yunlong, who had been directing the battle in front, heard the news from the communicator.

Chu Yunfei, the [-]th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, had been waiting for him outside for a long time.

"Go, go meet him."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yunlong stopped suddenly, and then said to the regiment staff officer at the side:

"Is Luo Er back?"

Luo Erji, the second battalion commander, led the second company and the second temporary artillery company to block the reinforcements in the direction of Fu'an, but it was a waste of time. Before the devils reached the ambush position, the battle on his side was over. retreated.

Through the telegram, Li Yunlong already knew the news.

"Not long after I got back."

The staff officer replied.

"Let him take the second company and the temporary artillery second company to line up outside the city."

Li Yunlong chuckled.

"Yes."

The head of the regiment was about to shout again... The corner of the staff officer's mouth twitched.

Li Yunlong took the monk and others to meet Chu Yunfei, and the two teams were still far apart, so Li Yunlong greeted first:
"Brother Chu."

"Brother Yunlong."

Chu Yunfei also greeted him with a full smile.

"I'm really sorry, the [-] devils in Heyuan County resisted quite fiercely. It took a lot of time and made Brother Yunfei wait for a long time."

Li Yunlong apologized in his words, but his tone was full of complacency.

Hearing Li Yunlong's embarrassing words without even the most basic pretense, the corners of Chu Yunfei's eyes twitched, he even choked for a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched before he continued:
"Brother Yunlong's independent regiment really lived up to its reputation. In just one night, it captured Heyuan County and wiped out two brigades of devils. Chu admires it."

At this moment, Chu Yunfei suddenly felt nostalgic for the time when he was in the independent group.

It's still Zhao Gang.

At least Zhao Gang's tone sounded more comfortable when he was twitching, unlike this guy, when he twitches, it makes you envious, jealous, and makes you feel uncomfortable all over.

However, in just one night, Chu Yunfei was shocked to break through a county town guarded by two Japanese brigades.

It's not just advanced weapons, and it's not just luck that Hirata Ichiro is celebrating his birthday.

Even if the commanding officers of the devils were annihilated in advance, causing the devils in the city to lose their command, even if there were recoilless guns and enough shells, it would not be so easy to completely occupy them.

Chu Yunfei has a deep understanding of how strong the little devil's will to resist is, and although the devils in Heyuan County are only a garrison brigade, they are not idiots.

In just one night, Heyuan County was completely captured and [-] devils were wiped out. This shows that the Independent Regiment not only has good weapons, but also has strong soldiers and strong commanding capabilities.

It's a real elite unit.

"Hahaha····"

Seeing what was hidden under Chu Yunfei's eyes, Li Yunlong smiled smugly.

This feeling is comfortable.

Putting away his smug smile, Li Yunlong continued:
"Now there are still some devils left in the county, it's not safe, let's go outside the city to catch up."

Although he was wary of Chu Yunfei, Li Yunlong had to admit that in the entire national army, only Chu Yunfei was pleasing to the eye, and he was willing to have a real conversation with this person, so he was worthy of being a friend.

"it is good."

Chu Yunfei didn't doubt that there was him, and the reason was really reasonable, so he followed Li Yunlong and walked out of the city.

The two chatted while walking. During the period, the two chatted formally. The topic was the siege battle and the overall future situation of the War of Resistance. They chatted very happily. , Both of them consciously avoided sensitive topics.

As soon as he left the city, Chu Yunfei saw the second company outside the city, the second temporary artillery company, and the transport team.

"This is···"

Here we go again... The scene in front of him made Chu Yunfei's pupils shrink.

At this time, the troops outside the city lined up neatly, machine guns and mortars were neatly placed in front of the team, and the transport team was at the end.This ostentation is usually only displayed at the swearing-in meeting when the troops set off.

"Captain."

"Second Company, temporarily form the Second Artillery Company, and return to the second transport team. Please give instructions from the head of the regiment."

Luo Er, the commander of the second battalion, is also an old comrade. He was in the independent regiment during Kong Jie's time. It is only theoretically a friendly army, so he is very cooperative with the head of the regiment.

"Ah."

Li Yunlong nodded, and asked intentionally with great satisfaction:

"Didn't you fight the enemy?"

"About two o'clock in the morning, the enemy Fu'an reinforcements retreated five kilometers before arriving at the scheduled blocking position."

Luo Er explained with a gesture of salute.

"Pity."

This time Li Yunlong really felt a pity, without any embarrassment.

After all, in the blocking battle, the results of the first round of fierce shelling may even account for more than one-third of the entire battle, and subsequent casualties will be much less. Without this wave, at least two to three vehicles would be lost. Panzer IV.

Oh, and one less wave of ammo consumption.

Leader Li naturally knew that the battle in Ping'an County went smoothly beyond expectations. Zhang Dabiao commanded troops to wipe out three devil brigades in front of the devil's position. It is estimated that the total number of devils wiped out should be over ten thousand, and the distance is fifteen thousand Soon.

The ammunition depot is now fully stocked, and there is no need to save ammunition specially.

Although it can be used for training with live ammunition, it is most suitable for consumption on the battlefield and the effect is the best.

pity······
The corner of Chu Yunfei's eyes twitched, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

He really couldn't understand the meaning of Li Yunlong's words. It stands to reason that in the combat operations that focused on attacking the county town, it was obviously a good thing that the battle could be ended quickly, and none of the blocking troops exchanged fire with the enemy's reinforcements.

Reduce casualties and reduce ammunition consumption.

Why is it a pity.

This is a bit incomprehensible.

Confused, Chu Yunfei began to carefully look at the troops in front of him, and his expression froze on the spot.

The troops in front of him lined up in layers, with the infantry at the front, the artillery in the middle, and the transport team at the end. He had heard clearly before that the second company, the temporary second artillery company, and the transport team were returning.

but····
Chu Yunfei counted.

There are more than 600 infantry in the front, eight artillery groups in the middle, and more than one reinforced company in the rear transport team.

This is an infantry company?
Then, the artillery battery of eight batteries?
Looking at the weapons and equipment piled up in front, as well as the ammunition boxes, Chu Yunfei lost control of his expression management.

Eight 120 mortars, six 82 mortars, twelve 60 mortars, two m2 heavy machine guns, and more than 40 general-purpose machine guns that use ammunition belts to feed ammunition. This is really an infantry company plus an artillery Even the equipment?
Also, with so many ammunition boxes, it is estimated that there are dozens of tons of shells. What is this for?
He even saw five radio stations, more than his entire [-] regiment.

"Brother Yunlong's independent group really lives up to its reputation."

Chu Yunfei said this with some difficulty.

His guard platoon could testify that the troops had indeed just arrived from the direction of Fu'an this time. Before that, he had also received news from Brown Yanggou that the blocking troops of the Independent Regiment exchanged fire with the reinforcements from Taiyuan.

In other words, these troops were not deliberately displayed by Li Yunlong, but the independent regiment was indeed the weapon and equipment.

Chu Yunfei just lost control of his expression management, while Fang Ligong beside him was nervous, and even vigilance was written on his face. When he thought of fighting against such an army in the future, Fang Ligong felt like he was on his back.

"Hey hey..."

Li Yunlong is very humble:
"So-so, so-so."

"Brother Yunlong."

Chu Yunfei controlled his expression, changed the subject, and didn't intend to give Li Yunlong a chance to continue to be embarrassed:
"Our regiment has a damaged Bofors mountain cannon barrel. I heard that your regiment base has a machinery factory that can repair weapons and equipment. Can you do me a favor and repair this mountain cannon?"

Is this trying to test the technology of Zhao Jiayu Machinery Factory?Then let you open your eyes.Anyway, there is no need to hide this matter, it is a good thing to reveal it.

"Damaged barrel? No problem"

Li Yunlong directly agreed.

There are blueprints and master craftsmen in the Bofors Hill Artillery Regiment, and there is no problem in rebuilding a barrel.

"However, Brother Yunfei, this brother is clear about the accounts. Repairing a cannon is not cheap, especially the barrel is not easy to manufacture."

Leader Li Datuan is a good guy who never helps in vain.

"That's easy to say."

Chu Yunfei was naturally prepared:
"Scrap steel, ocean, or... food stamps will do."

"Okay, you send someone over to discuss the specific price with the experts from my machinery factory."

Leader Li left the matter to Sun Desheng.

He believed that Sun Desheng had many ways to let the [-]th Regiment know that Zhaojiayu Machinery Factory was capable of producing high-quality gun steel without leaking confidential information.

After Chu Yunfei left, Li Yunlong organized people to maintain law and order in Heyuan County, while Zhao Gang led the construction team to start surveying and mapping, preparing to build a road from Zhaojiayu to Heyuan County and a light rail railway.

Simultaneously.

Zhengtai railway line.

"Move away, move everything away, not leave a single screw to the devil."

Cheng Shifa took tens of thousands of people in the base area, and took away nearly a thousand tons of sugar, grain, and the entire train, including the rails and sleepers.

this afternoon.

Taiyuan.

Having not slept all day and night, the white-haired Yoshimoto Sadaichi looked at the report in his hand:
"Heyuan County was occupied by the Independence Regiment. Including Captain Hirata Ichiro, 500 members of the Gendarmerie Brigade and the Garrison Brigade were all crushed."

"A transport train was attacked last night. All members of the garrison team were shattered. One thousand tons of grain and sugar were robbed. The train and a kilometer of surrounding rails were also robbed."

Hey····

Yoshimoto Sadaichi sighed deeply, and with his sigh, his hair fell out even more.

He felt that he, the commander of the first army, had fallen over.

Jingle Bell·····

The phone rang, Yoshimoto hung up the phone, and General Okamura cursed. This time, Okamura Ningji showed no mercy:

"waste."

"Heyuan County was captured by Li Yunlong, and the transport train was robbed. How did you become the commander of the First Army?"

"..."

Gangcun Ningci was really angry, even Heyuan County. After obtaining a large amount of supplies in Pingan County, Heyuan County was so important, but the transport train was hijacked and lost [-] tons of supplies, which really made Gangcun Ningci Very distressed.

That's [-] tons of sugar and fine grains, materials that the country attaches great importance to.

After scolding for a long time, finally Okamura Ningji warned:

"Yoshimoto-kun, if there is another problem..."

The phone was hung up, Yoshimoto Teiichi also heaved a sigh of relief.

His position as commander of the First Army is temporarily safe.

Afterwards, Gibbon's eyes flashed brightly:
"Pick up General Yamamoto for me."

Li Yunlong made trouble for him, captured a county seat of his, hijacked one of his transport trains, caused him to be scolded, and almost lost his position. Would he swallow this bad breath silently?
······
Two days later.

Headquarters.

staff.

"Staff Mo, did Li Yunlong bring down Heyuan County?"

A few staff officers who had just returned to the headquarters asked.

"Yes, it was shot two days ago."

Staff officer Mo was sorting out the documents, he replied casually.

With the great development of the army and the large amount of supplies from Li Yunlong's side, the life of the headquarters is getting better and better, with warm clothes and enough food, and sufficient funds.Even, no one in the entire base was hungry.

"Didn't he confront Ping'an County? Why did Heyuan County be taken down suddenly and silently?"

The staff officer was startled.

The news about Li Yunlong was flying all over the sky, and there were all kinds of news. From time to time, news about Li Yunlong's capture of Ping'an County was spread, so he thought it was fake.

"And in just one night, Heyuan County was captured."

One of the staff officers said proudly.

"So fast?"

The few staff officers who came back were shocked.

"Li Yunlong is a ghost, the commander of the little devils in Heyuan County is organizing a birthday party, he sent people to infiltrate the county, took advantage of the birthday party to kill the devil officer, and then attacked inside and outside the city gate, and wiped out Heyuan in one night There are fifteen hundred devils in the county."

The tone of the staff officer who spoke was even more complacent, as if he had done this.

"sharp·····"

The newly returned staff officers were amazed.

This matter sounds simple, but it is not easy to do it. If you want to seize these opportunities, the command level of the commander is extremely high.

"and also."

The speaking staff officer became more energetic:
"Li Yunlong even deliberately pushed forward the blocking force's position by [-] kilometers in the direction of Taiyuan, beating up the devil's reinforcements in vain. As soon as the blocking position started, Heyuan County was defeated, and the devil's reinforcements had no choice but to retreat."

"This time, a record of 230 to zero was achieved."

"hiss···"

The staff officers all took a breath.

Seeing the exclamation in the staff department, Staff Officer Mo smiled.

Li Yunlong's raid on Heyuan County this time had a great impact. It not only silenced many people who said that the independent regiment was just equipped, but also greatly improved Li Yunlong's reputation.

······
a few days later.

Zhao Jiayu.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang walked into the regiment headquarters together.

"Eleven thousand."

Looking at the list in his hand, Li Yunlong smiled happily.

Contrary to his expectations, in the previous battles, not only did he complete the goal of [-], but he also surpassed the target by a few hundred. In addition to the fierce battles in the past few nights, there are only [-] devils away from [-].

"Now, the problem of medicine is completely solved."

Zhao Gang also breathed a sigh of relief.

Tank business, after reaching [-], each devil has ten tons of reinforced concrete and two packs of medical kits.

In the fierce battle on the front line, many soldiers were injured. Although Dean Liu set up a branch hospital in Zhaojiayu, there were too many wounded and the medicines were a little tight. After all, exchanging medicines was very expensive.

But now, with the amount of medicines in Boss Chen's big medical kit, it is enough for Zhao Jiayu's base area to use, and there is even a huge surplus to support hospitals in other base areas.

"Unfortunately, Gibbon still hasn't stepped down."

Then Zhao Gang clicked his tongue.

"Looks like we have to do it again."

Li Yunlong smiled:
"Just in time, the new mountain cannon has arrived, and the range-extending bomb has also appeared. Let's take Taiyuan Airport again and again."

"The new mountain cannon is powerful, and the shells are also compatible with the new howitzer. The Bofors mountain cannon can also be eliminated."

As he spoke, Li Yunlong opened a new weapon information booklet.

On the cover is a three-view of an artillery, with a line next to it - M56 camel-mounted 105 howitzer.
