The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 1179 Li Yunlong is high-spirited

At this time, the main force of the Japanese army heading south, led by Morita's tank division, was ambushed by the National Army's 35th Route Army led by Commander Fu.

One side is hastily setting off, while the other side is ready to go.

The Japanese army fell directly into a bitter battle.

Commander Fu made a domineering statement at the headquarters: "When I attended the secret meeting at the Eighth Route Army base this time, I patted my chest and promised that I would handle this old devil Morita.

I have rounded up all the little devils going south.

Beat me, hit me hard, and try to completely eat this group of Japanese soldiers.

Even if we can't kill the little devils, we will drag them to death alive, starve to death, and freeze to death in the ice and snow! "

The planned reinforcements of the Japanese army were completely stopped by the 35th Route Army. After hearing the news, Junroku Hata and Okabe were so anxious that they had no choice but to hastily mobilize some more aviation units. Rush for reinforcements.

……

On the other side, the battle to encircle and annihilate the 14th Division of the Kwantung Army continues.

The officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army built the entire Yangyuan area into a multi-layered iron barrel circle inside and outside, and surrounded them layer by layer, trapping the [-]th Regiment of the Kwantung Army within it.

Li Yunlong took the mobile force commanders Lao Qin, Lao Wei, Lao Cheng who were cooperating with him in setting up the net, as well as the visiting Commander Su. In the forward observation post, he pointed to a place between two large hills in the depth of the defense line in the distance. On the raised hill, he said:
"The Allied Assault Brigade and our Eighth Route Army troops have built a defense line here. On this hillside, many anti-tank gun shooting fortifications converted from Soviet-made F22-type 76.2 field guns have been built. The chambers of these guns have been enlarged and the muzzles are equipped with defuse flame weapon, improved the gun mount, and installed a new sight. Its combat performance in all aspects is much better than before.

The 14th Division of the Kwantung Army was hit head-on when it broke out from this direction! "

Commander Su looked at these British and American soldiers repairing fortifications in the snowy weather, and wondered: "Li Yunlong, what's going on with these foreign soldiers?"

Li Yunlong on the side chuckled and explained:
"Commander, you've seen it, don't tell me, these foreign soldiers are doing really well, they are all very enthusiastic.

Most of them are some of the prisoners we rescued after we conquered the important Japanese cities during this period. Not to mention, there are quite a lot of talents here, including pilots, technical troops, and captured Allied soldiers in the Southeast Asian battlefield. .

After we rescued them, we learned that our Eighth Route Army was a team that was serious about fighting the Japanese and could really fight the Japanese. These soldiers came to apply, saying that they wanted to fight the Japanese with our Eighth Route Army and avenge their dead comrades.

I reported this to the boss later, and he agreed, so these foreign soldiers went to the battlefield with us this time. "

Commander Su said: "So that's what happened. We need to take more care of these foreign friendly troops!"

"Don't worry, they are ranked last in this battle order. They are responsible for repairing fortifications and cleaning the battlefield. We, Lao Li, can't bear to leave it to them to do such exciting things as killing Japanese soldiers!"

"You boy!"

As he spoke, Li Yunlong continued to visit with a group of commanders.

“Over there, look at those relatively hidden buildings over there, guess what they are for?

Hehe, I guess none of you can guess it! "

Li Yunlong said proudly: "It can be said that we are quite well prepared for this ambush.

We have not only built fortifications here, but also prepared shacks, rotating troops to warm up and rest at any time. Ammunition and supplies have been prepared, and the fortifications are being camouflaged and watered to reinforce, resolutely blocking the possible arrival of mechanized troops from the north and south of the Japanese and blocking the Japanese. The forward troops merged with the central army, and howitzer positions and material supply bases were deployed on the large hills on the left and right sides to provide enough supplies for the armored troops that repeatedly charged.

Our anti-aircraft artillery unit is also deployed in this area. In emergencies, we have reserved a position for the anti-aircraft artillery to shoot horizontally. If there are too many Japs, there are also shooting positions for mobile anti-tank destroyers and assault guns on the position.

All the positions were marked with artillery bombardment coordinates, and air communication tests were also conducted. If the situation went bad, the air force could be directed to conduct air strikes at any time. "

This is really something that real people will look upon with admiration after three days.

Commander Su couldn't help but sigh: "Li Yunlong, your current command experience is really getting closer to the modern warfare system!"

"Hey, where are you now? You still have to learn, you still have to learn! Commander, don't praise me. Something will go wrong if I praise you!"

Li Yunlong said happily, his words seemed to be modest, but there was no trace of humility at all.

Lao Cheng on the side muttered: "This big head Li never forgets to show off his virtue wherever he goes!"

Li Yunlong's ears were so sharp, and he immediately replied: "I mean, Blind Cheng, don't be dissatisfied. With my arrangement, you might not be able to do it if it were you!

This time I’ll give you another lesson! "

Li Yunlong said proudly and continued to show everyone around.

Along the way, both Kong Jie's troops and the British and American soldiers greeted him with great respect, so Lao Li raised his head even higher.

As we walked, we saw a few British soldiers sharpening their swords. We followed the sound and looked over. Good guys, we saw two people sharpening their broad swords with two shields written on them next to them.

Li Yunlong was happy and asked: "Captain Jack, do you plan to use that ancestral broad sword to compete with the Japanese in swordsmanship later?"

Jack said in slightly deflated Chinese: "Sir, back in Dunkirk I chased the Germans with a longbow, broadsword and pistol.

Today I want to show little Japan how powerful the British knights are.

Our commandos all wear body armor with bulletproof steel plates, so we are not afraid of Japanese bayonets.

After a while the battle started, when hand-to-hand fighting broke out, sir, please take a look at how we defeated a Japanese squadron with one platoon. "

"Good boy, have courage!"

Li Yunlong praised him, but in the end he still preferred the broadsword passed down by his ancestors.

"In this way, after the hand-to-hand combat begins, I think we might as well compete.

Let’s see which one is better with your broadsword, or our Eighth Route Army’s broadsword. "

"Yes sir!" Jack responded with a standard military salute.

Li Yunlong turned to Lao Cheng and said, "Don't tell me, these foreigners are really energetic."

He then saw American commando captain Troy Logan next to him.

"I said, Lao Tuo, what are you planning on?" Li Yunlong asked carelessly. This is his territory, and there are no foreigners he is not familiar with.

Toyrogen replied: "Dear Commander, my name is Toyrogen, not Laoto. I am warming up, and I heard that the Japanese elite Kwantung Army is coming today. I am going to capture ten little Japanese alive and come and fight with me. , as a boxing champion, I have to let them taste the power of the American boxing champion!"

Li Yunlong has a deep understanding of Troy Logan's boxing skills.

When the two first met, it was Kong Jie who took the initiative to let Li Yunlong and Troy Logan compete, try something new, and try the American boxing skills.

The result... in Li Yunlong's words: "This kid's bastard boxing is really amazing. He was greeted with punch after punch, and there was no time to dodge. Most people really can't resist it."

Looking at the bruises on Lao Li's eye circles that have not yet been removed, you can tell the result of the two people's discussion.

Li Yunlong said happily: "No matter what your background is, I will call you Lao Tuo. I say Lao Tuo, if you can really capture ten little devils alive, I will treat you to a drink, drink the wine I brewed!"

Toirogan said: "Sir, I won't drink wine. If we do that, can we improve the food? We want to try the specialties from all over your country!"

Li Yunlong shook his head quickly: "No, no, with so many people in your army, even if each class eats one special dish, it's not enough. Where can I find so many special chefs?

I don’t know where you went to find so many recipes, but I haven’t tried them yet! "

Troy Logan said: "Then can we get some good wine?"

Li Yunlong nodded, "Which whiskey and brandy will be fine?"

Toyrogan immediately cheered: "Sir, please wait a moment, let's go and tie up the little devil now!"

Ha ha ha ha--

The crowd burst into laughter.

After returning to the headquarters, looking at the map in front of him, Commander Su said: "I am still a little uneasy. The 14th Division dared to attack Yangyuan from Conghua Shaoyuan at night, just because it was close to dawn when it arrived in Yangyuan.

Whether we ambush or block, it will soon be dawn and they will receive air support immediately.

Moreover, they are a fully mechanized division, and ordinary ambush will not work at all. It is impossible for us to build a huge field fortification group around Yangyuan in a short time.

Even if the current 14th Division has fallen into our ambush circle, it is an elite division after all, with a huge scale, and it is impossible for us to wipe out all of them in a short period of time.

After the encirclement and annihilation war started on our side, the only ones that the Japanese army could quickly increase in number were the Japanese No. 13 Division followed by the Huashaoying Battalion in the east, and the 101st and 35th Divisions in the southwest.

As for Morita's [-]rd Tank Division to the north, it is still in the Houhe area and cannot be reached in a short time. "

Li Yunlong said: "The main force of the 385th Brigade is also blocking the attack in the southwest. Commander, what are you worried about?"

Commander Su said: "I'm afraid that Harada will take a detour in the direction of Datong and go straight into Yanggao County, cutting off our retreat!
Everyone look at the map.

As our 120th Division abandons Xinkou, the Japanese 26th, 35th, 101st, and 106th Divisions will be liberated immediately.

Among them, the 26th Mixed Brigade defended Dai County, the 106th Division attacked Shuozhou County along the Tongpu Line, the 101th Division passed through Yanmen Pass and attacked from the east of Shuo County; the 35st Division and the 16th Division gathered in Yingxian County, No. The [-]th mixed brigade guarded Xinkou, and the third mixed brigade guarded Yanmen Pass.

The Japanese 35th and 101st Divisions can attack in two directions, going to the west of Yangyuan County on one side and Yanggao County on the other. The Datong defenders have to defend the city and cannot support our side immediately.

At that time, there will be Japanese reinforcements outside and the 14th Division of the Kwantung Army inside. In this way, will the siege we originally formed against the [-]th Division of the Kwantung Army be attacked by the Japanese with the reverse middle-and-center tactics, resulting in being attacked from both sides?

Moreover, the Japanese No. 13 Division has already advanced towards Huashaoying. It is estimated that there will be reserve troops rushing here in the future, so that we will be engaged with the enemy on three sides! "

It has to be said that Lao Su and the commanders of the various base areas present were all battlefield veterans with strategic vision. It was obvious at a glance that the plan to eliminate the 14th Division was good, but there were still crises and loopholes.

Li Yunlong, on the other hand, sat firmly on the folding chair and started singing with Lao Qin and Lao Wei at the small table while eating.

"Ah, ah, ah, I am Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Kingdom! I have learned a lot of civil and military skills, I have a strategic mind, I know astronomy and geography, and now I am serving the country on the battlefield! I have good command, strategizing, and sit firmly in the army tent! Inoue's son doesn't know how high or low he is when he comes to challenge, I will kill him without leaving any trace of him, and bury his bones somewhere else!"

After singing a few words, Li Yunlong said proudly: "Old Kong has long guessed that Harada is a cunning fox. He is lingering around Yingxian County, not just to see the main force of the Eighth Route Army appear before he takes action. ?

This old devil is trying his best to take advantage and not suffer any losses.

A typical big profiteer who is greedy for money and profits.

As for our main force - aren't we exposed now?

In the Yanggao County Railway Goods Yard, Lao Kong left dozens of carloads of supplies, including flour, rice, canned goods, drinks, beer, cigarettes, fuel, various metal ingots, and various types of artillery shells, waiting for Harada to move them.

Do you think he immediately gave up supplies and went south to deal with the main force of our Eighth Route Army?
Or should we defend Yanggao first, evacuate the Eighth Route Army's supplies, and then move south?
A slight delay in time will cause the fighter plane to be delayed.

There are also our reserves between Datong and Shuozhou, the reinforcements of the Yan'an Left Behind Corps, the troops of Brigadier Zhang of the 120th Division, the third heavy artillery brigade of the headquarters, a heavy artillery brigade in the Luliang Mountain base area, and the Luliang Mountain Armored Forces are there. Here, we are just waiting for the devils to take our retreat!
It’s not yet certain who will surround whom by then!

In addition, today our air force will fight with the Japanese for air supremacy with all its strength. It is estimated that the fight will last from dawn to dusk, and both sides will basically not receive the support of bomber units.

Our bomber force includes strategic bomber force, medium bomber force, and various dive bomber forces, all of which are greeting the Morita Division coming from the direction of Atsuwa.

The Japanese should now understand that this 35th Army is not the 35th Army, right? "

Speaking of Harada, an old devil who is both greedy for money and afraid of death.

Even Commander Su couldn't help but laugh, and his original worry turned into relief.

A mediocre commander controls the battle situation, but an excellent commander controls the people's hearts.

Seeing that Kong Jie had already expected everything.

Li Yunlong continued: "And I dare to say that no one in China, including the whole world, will believe that our Eighth Route Army can fight against the No. 14 Division of the Kwantung Army in a frontal field battle, between the two major Japanese combat groups. Should the regiment carry out encirclement and annihilation?

But what if we just made it this far?
I think the whole world will be shocked by it! "

The commanders present were shocked by these words.

Li Yunlong continued: "Okay, Lao Qin, Lao Cheng, Lao Wei, let's get ready, it's not far from dawn.

This time I personally lead the armored troops to charge, and you help me set up the encirclement on both sides and the joint defense.

I have to kill him to my heart's content! "
