Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2785 Good news coming frequently!

Duanwu, Long Qianyan and Ma Shanpao crawled in a depression not far from the Japanese position, carefully observing the Japanese defense deployment through a telescope.

Duanwu frowned and whispered, "The enemy's defenses are very tight, with light machine guns, heavy machine guns, mortars, and snipers. The firepower points are well coordinated. If we attack by force, I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses."

Long Qianyan nodded slightly, his eyes revealing a trace of thought: "Yes, they rely on the terrain and make full use of these three mountains. Each firepower point is stuck in a key position, and it is difficult for us to find a breakthrough."

Ma Shanpao was a little anxious. He scratched his head and said, "We can't just sit there and watch. We can't just stop fighting because the enemy has strong defenses, right?"

Duanwu patted Ma Shanpao on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, let's go back first and let the brothers have a good rest and recuperate, and then we can discuss countermeasures."

The three of them carefully returned along the same route and returned to the army's temporary camp.

Duanwu ordered the soldiers to rest on the spot, and then brought Long Qianyan and Ma Shanpao to the tent.

Inside the tent, three people sat around a simple map.

Duanwu pointed to the Japanese positions on the map and said, "Look, everyone, this devil's defense system seems impeccable, but if we analyze it carefully, we can still find flaws. Although they have many firepower points, they are mainly concentrated in the front and flanks, and the defense in the rear is relatively weak."

Long Qianyan's eyes lit up and he said, "Captain, do you mean that we attack from the rear? But there is also a sniper team in the rear, and how can we get behind them? These three mountains are not small."

Duanwu nodded. He felt that Long Qianyan was right. These three mountains stretched for more than ten kilometers. If they went around to the back, it would probably be dawn before dawn.

Moreover, there are many cliffs behind the mountain, which makes it very difficult to climb. If there are snipers blocking the way, even if we climb up, we will suffer heavy losses.

Duanwu felt that his conclusion was indeed a bit abrupt.

Although this plan is feasible according to the style of special operations, the first is time, and the second is that there are probably only a few people in the entire anti-Japanese brigade who can be called special operations.

So I have to put the plan aside for the Dragon Boat Festival and see if there are any other solutions.

Duanwu's fingers moved slowly on the map, his brows twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川", and his eyes moved back and forth between the Japanese positions and the surrounding terrain.

Suddenly, his finger stopped on the east side of the Pinzi Mountains, where there was a dense jungle.

This jungle is very dense and should be suitable for sneaking in.

But it is undeniable that the Japanese will definitely set up defenses here, and even ambush snipers.

But darkness is the best cover for infiltration.

And as long as you go up from this position, you will reach the artillery position on the east side of the Japanese army.

As long as this artillery position was captured, the entire Japanese position layout would be broken in an instant.

Thinking of this, the Dragon Boat Festival is already planned.

He pointed at the map and said, "We can go from the east side of the mountain. There is a large area of ​​dense forest here. We can use the cover of night and the dense forest to send a small number of elite troops in and seize the Japanese artillery position on the east side.

Once we succeed, the follow-up troops will all attack this place fiercely and disrupt the Japanese's deployment from within.

Although casualties are inevitable, this is the best outcome.

In order to avoid casualties, we can also launch a feint attack from the front, which can also attract some of the devils' attention."

Long Qianyan and Ma Shanpao came over immediately, staring at the map, as if they still didn't understand it clearly.

Duanwu could only patiently continue to explain: "Look, we will launch a feint attack on the Japanese position from the front, and let the artillery bombard the Japanese machine gun position to attract the Japanese's attention. The Japanese will definitely not sit still and wait for death. They will draw artillery to fight back.

So it is very important here. Our artillery must be dispersed and immediately move positions after firing a few shots.

We are just making a feint attack anyway, so it will be fine as long as we make enough noise.

At this time, our elite team entered the dense forest on the east side, then fought their way in, destroyed the Japanese artillery positions on the east side, and then fought their way out from the rear of the Japanese heavy machine gun positions.

Once the enemy's heavy machine gun position is lost, the enemy's front-line positions will be completely destroyed."

At this point, Duanwu looked at Long Qianyan and said, "When the time comes, you will come in with me. Our main goal is to find those snipers and kill them first. Otherwise, the casualties of this assault team will be very large."

"Yes!"

Long Qianyan accepted the order, and at this time Ma Shanpao said: "Captain, what about me?"

Duan Wu said: "When the time comes, you will stay and command your second team. If Long Qianyan and I lead the first team to victory, you will bring your people to join us. And this battle has only just begun."

At this time, Duanwu said that this was just the beginning, which was not an exaggeration, because the number of the devils was large, and they occupied three mountains that supported each other as their strongholds.

Although these three mountains are not high, with an altitude of only about 80 meters, they cover a large area and have many natural barriers that can be defended.

If there were to be reinforcements, Duanwu would hope for air support and carpet bombing of the area.

It can be said that if there really were bombers during the Dragon Boat Festival, then none of the Japanese would have been able to leave China alive.

Of course, Duanwu can only think about it. It is better to face reality at this time.

However, at this time, Duanwu received two pieces of good news.

One letter was from Wu Gan, telling Duanwu that they had broken through the natural barrier of the Valley of Broken Souls, and the troops were in the process of resting and would launch an attack on the Japanese cavalry before dawn.

Duanwu called back and told Wugan to do it boldly, as no Japanese would go to the front battlefield to reinforce the troops.

With Duanwu's words, Wu Gan naturally felt relieved.

He immediately summoned the leaders of various tribes and reported to them the unprecedented achievements made by the Anti-Japanese Brigade.

When the tribal leaders heard the victory report from the Anti-Japanese Brigade, they all looked greedy.

Before, when they launched a surprise attack on the Japanese cavalry, they were worried that there were so many devils. If there were reinforcements, they would be the ones who would be lost.

But now it seems that the Japs' mopping-up plan will not only fail, but may also lead to their total annihilation.

Although they didn't know how Duanwu did it, it was a great thing for them.

So after the Mongolian cavalry had rested for nearly two hours, the army rushed straight to the Japanese cavalry camp like a flood.

The second victory report that Duanwu received was naturally sent by the One-Eyed Dragon. They had surrounded and killed two waves of Japanese invaders who entered the Sanchong Pass, and blew up the Japanese artillery positions.

Moreover, just before that, they shot down a Japanese reconnaissance plane.

Duanwu was very satisfied with the victory report, but he warned Duyanlong that he should learn and apply the tactics flexibly in combat and beware of the revenge of the Japanese devils!
