People are shining their swords, secretly helping the Iron Triangle in Northwest Shanxi

Chapter 263 Kangjia Town was attacked and Zhao Gang was injured
Chu Yunfei took the telegram from Adjutant Sun Ming's hand, checked it carefully, and the expression on his face changed instantly.

Dozens of elite Japanese troops broke into Lancheng, causing hundreds of casualties to the defenders of Lancheng.

However, the 11th regiment and the 358th regiment stationed in Lancheng failed to bring them the slightest price, and they have not even found their whereabouts.

Chu Yunfei was very dissatisfied with this. After all, if such a thing got out, Chu Yunfei, as the brigade commander, would feel ashamed.

After reading the telegram, he immediately asked Sun Ming to find Chen Ziyun.

After Chen Ziyun got the news, he immediately came to Chu Yunfei.

"Two regiments, seven infantry battalions, they have nothing to do with these dozens of little devils."

"When this matter gets out, my Independent 48th Brigade will be a laughing stock."

"Wu Ziqiang, Shi Yujia, and Liang Guoping simply don't have the slightest level of command."

"Brother Li Gong has the ability to give advice, but he is not good at commanding operations."

"Ziyun, what do you think of this matter?"

Chu Yunfei handed the telegram to Chen Ziyun, and said with a serious expression on his face.

The expression on his face was annoyed, his eyes turned towards Lancheng, and his brows were tightly frowned.

Chen Ziyun had read the content of the telegram, and he was basically sure that it was the Yamamoto Secret Service who entered Arashi City to launch an attack.

The Yamamoto Special Forces did not have a high sense of presence in these few battles, but they achieved a lot of victories.

And in most battles, they have kept zero casualties.

Before fighting in Yangcun, Yamamoto's secret service team almost destroyed Chu Yunfei's brigade headquarters. Fortunately, they fought desperately with the guard company at that time.

"This is the Yamamoto Special Forces that we fought against them before. We must not underestimate this team."

"It's just that they went to Lancheng, are they going for our brigade headquarters? Based on the information of the little devil, they should know that we are here in the independent detachment."

"Traveler, this little devil is fighting in Lancheng, is it a bait..."

The expression on Chen Ziyun's face turned serious, and he spoke slowly.

It was at this time that Li Yunlong also quickly came to Chu Yunfei's place.

Zhao Gang had already dispatched messengers to report, and Li Yunlong also knew about the combat situation in the west of Xin County.

But now Li Yunlong has some difficult choices, and he doesn't know how to make a choice for a while.

If we give up the combat strike on the Huting stronghold, all previous efforts will be in vain.

After all, the new regiment has already hit the gun tower, as long as the two gun towers are destroyed.

They can continue to advance, cross the trenches, and completely destroy the entire Huting stronghold.

Now if the new regiment withdraws, the Japanese and puppet troops can recover quickly.

The next time they want to continue to destroy the Huting stronghold, they will definitely have to pay even heavier losses.

After all, the Japanese and puppet troops will summarize based on this battle to make up for their defense loopholes.

What's more, it is still unknown whether the next battle will be supported by the artillery support of the Jinsui Army.

"Ashamed, really ashamed, I originally wanted to show my hand."

"In the end, it was calculated by the little devil."

"They came and used all their tricks to attract the main force of our new regiment to the Huting stronghold."

"After weakening our defense, they quickly launched an attack in Xin County. The pressure on the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment is not small."

"Brother Yunfei, brother Ziyun, there seems to be a problem on your side?"

Li Yunlong came over and asked with a curious expression on his face.

The three communicated and told each other about the current situation facing their respective troops.

Immediately afterwards, a cadre from the Xinyi Regiment came over with a map.

Chu Yunfei, Li Yunlong, and Chen Ziyun looked at the map with thoughtful expressions on their faces.

At first Li Yunlong thought that the Japanese and puppet troops were only coming for his own independent detachment, but considering all aspects of the situation, it was obviously not the case.

Chu Yunfei also gradually realized that this was a large-scale combat operation by the Japanese army.

As for their goals, neither Li Yunlong nor Chu Yunfei has yet judged them.

Chen Ziyun was lost in thought while looking at the map, and after his appearance, a series of butterfly effects were caused.

The current combat actions of the Japanese and puppet troops are obviously conspiring.

Reminiscent of the mission issued by the system to annihilate the field observation group, Chen Ziyun vaguely guessed something.

"The Japanese and puppet troops in the Huting stronghold, and the Japanese and puppet troops in Xinxian County, all came here for the independent detachment."

"Their task is to hold back the independent detachment, so as to create opportunities for the Yamamoto special team."

"The Yamamoto Secret Service sent one to fight in Arashi City. This is the bait. They want to focus our attention on Arashi City!"

"No, the Kangjia Town Detachment Headquarters is in danger, Zhao Gang is in charge..."

"Brother Yunlong, hurry up and contact Zhao Gang's official committee to transfer quickly."

Chen Ziyun took a deep breath, and gradually, he realized what the little devil really thought.

Li Yunlong didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly transferred a company from the first battalion, and rushed back to Kangjia Town for help.

They have only one radio here, and they usually communicate with the brigade headquarters.

As for the contact between the detachment headquarters and the regiments, they still rely on the messengers.

"Little devil is really cunning. If we are all here in Kangjia Town, we are very likely to be caught by them."

"Based on the combat capabilities of the Yamamoto Special Forces, even if they miss out in Kangjia Town, it is very likely that they will attack the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment."

"Brother Yunlong, these two regiments must quickly abandon their positions in front of each other."

Chu Yunfei pointed to the map, and also put forward a battle suggestion.

At the same time, Chu Yunfei also immediately arranged for his adjutant, Sun Ming, to contact him immediately.

He asked Fang Ligong to defend Lancheng with all his strength to ensure that the 11th regiment was prepared, and the 358th regiment was attacked by the Japanese and puppet troops, which cost a lot of casualties.

As for the 12th Reserve Regiment stationed in Jingle City, one part was dispatched and rushed towards Kangjia Town to ensure the safety of the independent detachment.

Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei, and Chen Ziyun looked at the map and continued to discuss.

They decided to shrink the positions of the new second regiment and the independent regiment when conditions permit.

Only at this time, in Kangjia Town, the Yamamoto Secret Service has already launched an attack.

Kangjia Town is where the detachment headquarters of the independent detachment is located. As the main force of the new regiment advances to the Huting stronghold, there is also the third battalion of the new regiment, which is directly under the cavalry company.

However, after the Japanese and puppet troops in Xinxian County launched an attack, the front line adjusted its defense.

The new second regiment, which was originally responsible for the defense in depth, also advanced to the front line to start defense.

The main force of the Independent Regiment has gathered at the highlands of Hesuo Town, directly fighting fiercely with the 14th Regiment of the Puppet Army.

The defense in depth gradually became empty, and the third battalion of the New First Regiment had to move forward to undertake the defense of the rear positions of the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment to ensure their rear safety.

So now there are only more than 300 troops in Kangjia Town, one cavalry company and one infantry company.

The third battalion left Kangjia Town and left the seventh company near the detachment headquarters to undertake the defense task here.

Up to now, the overall weapon configuration of the battalions under Li Yunlong's new regiment is not bad.

Each company has nine light machine guns, six grenade launchers, one 60MM mortar, and dozens of rifles.

With such firepower, even if they face a squadron of little devils, they are capable of fighting.

However, the Yamamoto special team they faced at this time was completely different.

Kazuki Yamamoto personally commanded two assault teams to quickly launch an attack, and six assault teams continued to attack in different areas.

The sound of German submachine guns firing sounded one after another, and light machine guns continued to provide them with cover.

And the two semi-automatic riflemen and two snipers of each unit are hidden on the commanding heights to provide cover for the assaulters.

These four little devils are all super shooters with strong rifle shooting skills.

The little devil equipped with a [-]-style sniper rifle locked the target through the scope and directly pulled the trigger.

It is difficult for the target that is almost locked by them to survive.

The little devil who fought with a Czech-style semi-automatic rifle pulled the trigger one after another, constantly attacking the soldiers.

In just a few minutes, the Seventh Company suffered dozens of casualties, and their position was completely defeated.

But the company commander is still sticking to his position, buying enough time for the detachment to transfer here.

But soon, the machine gun squadron of the Yamamoto Special Forces began to fire.

A MG13 machine gun was equipped with a 75-round drum, and dense bullets were fired.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the Yamamoto special team broke through the seventh company's blockade, and they quickly moved towards the Kangjia Town area.

At this time, the cavalry company had already arrived in Kangjia Town, and quickly reconciled with Zhao Ganghui.

"Company Commander, the little devil broke through the position of the Seventh Company, and has already charged towards here."

"The first row led Zhao Zhengwei to quickly evacuate, and the second and third rows tried their best to stop the little devil's troops."

After Sun Desheng received the report, he decisively issued an order.

Under the command of Sun Desheng, about [-] cavalry quickly attacked the Yamamoto special team.

More than 40 cavalry quickly covered Zhao Gang's departure.

But at this time, the mortar squadron of the Yamamoto Special Forces quickly launched shelling.

60MM mortars and 82MM mortars fired grenades one after another.

With the sound of grenade explosions, the cavalry company began to suffer casualties.

And a large number of cavalry began to actively attack the secret service team, and they were even hit by intensive firepower.

The Type [-] light machine guns of each unit of the Yamamoto Special Forces and the general-purpose machine guns of the machine gun squadron quickly seized the commanding heights.

The machine gun launched concentrated fire, and dense bullets hit the cavalry one after another.

The Type 75 light machine gun is equipped with a [-]-round ammunition bucket, and the general-purpose machine gun has a [-]-round ammunition drum.

More than a dozen light machine guns fired, and the cavalry could not maneuver effectively on the high ground, and they suffered a lot of casualties.

Especially with the little devil's submachine gun and semi-automatic rifle firing, the cavalry company was even more unable to deal with it.

Sun Desheng gritted his teeth and gave the order to dismount and fight, and they began to block with all their strength.

But Kazuki Yamamoto arranged for two assault units to quickly bypass here and pursue the transferred detachment with all their strength.

At this time, about 50 cavalry under Sun Desheng's command had more than [-] casualties, and many horses were shot and killed on the spot.

Zhao Gang was also hit here, a grenade fell nearby, and the shrapnel hit Zhao Gang.

At this time, Zhao Gang was already injured, and if he evacuated quickly on horseback, the wound would definitely bleed heavily.

Therefore, the soldiers did not dare to let him ride a horse, so they could only carry him to transfer.

At five o'clock, the sky gradually became dark.

Gunshots rang out one after another, and during the transfer process, Zhao Gang and his party were hit again.

Fortunately, at 05:30, the battlefield situation changed.

Zhang Dabiao's first battalion and third company quickly rushed to support Zhao Gang and quickly moved towards the Huting stronghold.

As for the preparation I2 regiment in the west of Jingle County, more than 200 troops were dispatched to help.

Yamamoto's secret service team was attacked by troops from different directions, and Kazuki Yamamoto quickly commanded the troops to respond.

The battle in the Kangjia Town area lasted until eight o'clock in the evening, and the various ministries fighting here suffered a certain amount of casualties.

The seventh company of the third battalion of the new regiment killed more than 70 people from the company commander down, and currently has less than 30 combat troops.

The regiment is directly under the cavalry company, with about 150 cavalry troops, with more than 90 casualties, and the company commander Sun Desheng was injured.

Zhao Gang, the official at the detachment headquarters, was also injured and needed urgent treatment.

The more than 12 troops of the 200th reserve regiment rushing to rescue were hit by the Yamamoto special team with all their strength, and more than 100 people died.

At this time, the overall strength of the Yamamoto Special Forces is very strong, especially their subordinate combat units, which are fully capable of mobile operations.

Basically, it is very difficult for a platoon of troops to be attacked by a combat unit, and heavy losses will soon occur.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the Yamamoto Special Agents captured Kangjia Town.

At this time, the first assault team, which was originally going to fight in Lancheng, also quickly came here to meet with the main force of the secret service team.

Harada Jiro commanded the troops to enter Arashi City, but failed to hit the brigade headquarters of the 48th Independent Brigade.

But they returned with zero casualties, and caused hundreds of casualties to the defenders of the Independent 48th Brigade in Lancheng.

Up to now, the Yamamoto Special Forces have launched combat strikes. They have successively brought about 48 casualties to the Independent 500th Brigade and the Independent Detachment.

And they also injured Zhao Gang, the leader of the independent detachment!
Fortunately, Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei, and Chen Ziyun were not in Kangjia Town, otherwise they would be doomed.

The secret service team took a short rest in Kangjia Town, and they began to continue their operations.

Kazuki Yamamoto is a very cunning old devil. At this time, the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment have received the news that Kangjia Town has fallen.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie quickly gathered their troops together and gradually moved towards the Huting stronghold area.

The secret service team did not carry out combat strikes against these two regiments either. They advanced directly to the west and attacked the reserve 12 regiments with all their strength!
At eleven o'clock in the evening on December 12th, the regiment headquarters of the [-]th Reserve Regiment was almost wiped out by the secret service team.

Qian Bojun and Zhang Fugui were frightened and hurriedly commanded the troops to shrink their positions with all their strength, which kept the regiment headquarters safe.

However, after continuous fighting, the total casualties of the 12th regiment of the reserve are already more than 300 people!

Kazuki Yamamoto saw that the reserve I2 regiment was shrinking its position. He did not organize troops to carry out a storm, but hid nearby to rest.

It was at this time that Kojima Shinxing, the lieutenant captain of the Xin County Special Garrison, commanded the troops to advance rapidly.

The first regiment, the second regiment, the 14th regiment, and the artillery battalion of the Royal Association Army entered the north and south areas of Kangjia Town.

The first battalion of Japanese special operations, the third squadron of artillery, and the first squadron of independent tanks were stationed in Kangjia Town.

At the same time, Xiaojima Xinxing quickly got in touch with the Yamamoto special team!
Of course, the Yamamoto special team at this time began to report to the military headquarters.

Although they have achieved certain results, their combat goals have not been achieved.

Chen Ziyun and the others did not receive any blows.

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, after the continuous attack of the main force of the new regiment, one of the two strong gun towers in the Huting stronghold had been destroyed.

However, the Japanese and puppet troops still fought with all their strength and continued to defend.

At this time, the battlefield situation has changed again.

The New First Regiment, New Second Regiment, Independent Regiment, and Jinsui Army Artillery Battalion under the Independent Detachment gathered in Xiying Village and Huting stronghold area north of Kangjia Town.

The 300-day puppet army here at the Huting stronghold, after continuous fighting, they only paid more than [-] casualties.

However, a large number of bunkers they set up were destroyed one after another, and now a blockhouse has also been knocked down.

The main force of the new regiment is to continue to attack, so as to completely destroy the Huting stronghold.

But here in Kangjia Town, there are a large number of Japanese and puppet troops, and they have more than 8000 troops.

In addition, there is also the Yamamoto special team here, they have already cut off the connection between the independent 48th brigade and the independent detachment.

Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the First Army, received a report from the front and knew that the Yamamoto Special Forces had captured Kangjia Town.

But Yoshio Shinozuka was naturally dissatisfied that Chen Ziyun and other targets were not harmed.

He discussed with the staff of the Army Command and quickly drew up a combat plan.

The Yamamoto special team quickly advanced to the Huting stronghold, looking for opportunities to continue to attack Chen Ziyun.

Xiaojima Xinxing commanded the Japanese and puppet troops, one of which stayed in Kangjia Town to contain the Jinsui Army Reserve I2 Regiment in the west, and the main force went north to attack the independent detachment.

At the same time, the independent mixed ninth brigade deployed in the west of Taiyuan, and the independent mixed 16th brigade deployed in the southwest of Taiyuan also began to dispatch.

These two brigades have to deploy a certain number of troops to launch a diversionary attack on Lancheng and Jingle City to ensure that the independent 48th brigade cannot rush to support the independent detachment.

The independent and mixed third brigade will continue to strengthen its deployment at the Huting stronghold.

The appetite of the First Army Command has grown, and he plans to use the Japanese and puppet troops under the command of Kojima Shinxing to independently form the third brigade to encircle and wipe out the independent detachment.

The Yamamoto Secret Service can find an opportunity to carry out a surprise attack and completely kill Chen Ziyun, Chu Yunfei, and Li Yunlong.

The little devil speculated that since Chen Ziyun and the others were not in Kangjia Town, they might be here at Huting stronghold.

For a while, a large number of Japanese and puppet troops began to mobilize, and they were preparing to launch combat operations overnight.

At two o'clock in the morning on the [-]th, the Japanese and puppet troops in the Huting stronghold launched a full-scale battle.

The hidden four [-]-type field guns continued to bombard the new regiment.

The Japanese and puppet troops deployed their main force to station in the two defensive trenches, and at the same time they strengthened the defense of the gun tower.

There were more than 500 Japanese puppet troops one after another, and they began to fight in the gun towers and the foxholes near the gun towers.

About a thousand troops were deployed to defend the two defensive trenches. At this time, there were only dozens of little devils in the rear dormitory.

Of course, after the headquarters of the third independent mixed brigade got the order, they also quickly mobilized troops and rushed to the Huting stronghold to help.
