Bright Sword: Take down the devil stronghold at the beginning

Chapter 273
Because the little devils are relatively wealthy, each large stronghold has radio stations that communicate with the outside world.

After discovering that the phone line was cut off, the little devil immediately contacted his superiors through the radio.

"Report to the commander of the unit that our telephone line was cut off by unknown forces. At the same time, there were gunfire sounds from the north and south. It seems that something is happening. However, the situation outside is unknown. We request tactical guidance."

After the little devil finished sending the telegram, he stood in front of the transmitter and waited for a response.

However, I didn’t receive a reply from the other party until more than an hour later.

The recovery words were very simple, "You will stand by and hold the stronghold."

The little devil held the translated paper and couldn't believe it.

The little devil turned to look at the radio operator on the opposite side, "Are you sure that's all."

"Sir, that's it. That's all."

The little devil looked at the order and was very worried.

Of course, what worried him even more was that the sound of gunfire had disappeared more than half an hour ago.

It wasn't like he didn't do anything. He sent several spies to explore the place where the sound came from.

However, the heavy rain was too heavy, and the scouts returned after walking a short distance.

Of course, they didn't gain anything, they saw some things from a distance.

"Reporting to the captain, there are enemies attacking our positions along the railway, and it seems that our troops have been defeated."

"Continue to send the report to the commander."

"Yes."

It's a pity that apart from that report, his superior didn't reply with a report.

In fact, he can't blame his superiors for this.

The little devil's headquarters is already busy.

All reports from various places are summarized here.

Countless staff officers and intelligence officers came and went.

Their transmitters are working at full capacity, receiving and sending out signals all the time.

The map has been scribbled and altered by little devils.

The little devil, the supreme commander of North China, was woken up overnight and came to the war room.

"what happened?"

"Report to Commander, the Tubal Road along Zhengtai Road is under attack."

"Oh, where was it attacked?"

The little devil commander was a little unhappy, and even big things bothered him to rest.

Wasn't it just that they were attacked? It was really a disgrace to the Imperial Japanese Army that they couldn't handle such a small thing.

The commander waited for a moment and found that there was no sound, so he turned to look over.

Where is the adjutant's expression faltering, and finally he hesitated to speak.

"Report to Commander, the railway from SJZ to Taiyuan, Yangquan Coal Mine, Baigui to Changzhi Railway and the northern section of Pinghan Road have all been attacked."

The commander didn't take it seriously at first and said casually, "It's not just Tubal."

The commander's expression froze. "What did you say?"

The commander looked at the adjutant with surprise.

The adjutant had no choice but to repeat, "Report to Commander, the railway from SJZ to Taiyuan, Yangquan Coal Mine, Baigui to Changzhi Railway and the northern section of Pinghan Road have all been attacked." The commander's face suddenly changed, and flames filled his eyes.

"How could this happen? Are all the intelligence agencies just idiots? For such a big operation on Tubal Road, no news has been received at all about the slightest disturbance."

On the other side, standing in the corner, trembling, the commander of the intelligence department who had always wanted to reduce his presence felt the biting chill.

I have tried my best to hide, but unfortunately I couldn't avoid it after all.

Seeing the commander looking at him angrily, he had no choice but to take a few steps forward.

"Report to Commander, the intelligence department received some information before the Tubal Road operation. However, the people below thought it was just a small operation on Tubal Road to attack the strongholds of our Imperial Japanese Army, so they just sent a message to the strongholds below. The news told them to step up their guard. I didn’t expect Tubal Road to be so bold as to attack our railway."

"A bunch of losers." The commander picked up whatever was handy and threw it at his men.

After venting, the commander focused on business.

"What's the situation now?"

"Report to the commander, the Tuba Road captured our railway line and cut off the connection between our various strongholds. Now we can only communicate through the radio. There are also some strongholds without radio stations, and they have not yet been contacted."

The commander thought for a moment and said, "Order nearby troops to provide immediate support."

"Report to the commander, we have contacted nearby troops. However, because the railway was damaged by Tubal Road, we cannot rely on railway transportation for rapid support and can only move by land. However, heavy rain damaged the road, making the movement very difficult, so The latest support will also take a day, and it is not clear whether there is an ambush on Tubal Road."

"Hmph, these Tubal Road gangs definitely want to destroy our railway. We must quickly provide support and repel these Tubal Road gangs."

"Yes."

After the commander finished giving the order, he continued to look at the map. At the same time, his staff officers were not idle either.

As the saying goes, misfortunes are the source of blessings, and blessings are the roots of misfortunes.

The little devil looked at the dense red dots on the map.

"Tubal Road has dispatched so many troops. Very good. They usually hide in the mountains, but now that they have come out. Then let me take them down in one fell swoop."

The little devil began to design a battle plan.

Back to the topic, after more than two hours of running around, the New Second Regiment arrived near the Japanese stronghold.

There is a squadron of Japanese soldiers and puppet troops in the stronghold. In addition, they rely on complete fortifications, so this battle is not that easy to fight.

In fact, in terms of fighting, there are only so many devils, and the new second regiment can take them down with a single charge.

However, the Japanese had a position and strong firepower. The New Second Regiment launched several charges but were repelled.

Because they were traveling in the rain and had a sneak attack on the railway at night, the soldiers rushed over to attack without a good rest.

The soldiers' bodies couldn't bear it any longer.

Li Yunlong watched from below and shouted, "Get back first."

"Captain, I will lead a battalion to charge." Zhang Dabiao was a little unwilling, so he persuaded.

"Whatever you charge, just charge hard. That's not how battles are fought. Go back and think about how to defeat these devils."

"Yes."

The soldiers of the New Second Regiment withdrew and took a short rest.

Li Yunlong and others held a meeting in a temporary wooden shed.

At the same time, it is not that the little devil is not close to the railway in the nearby cities, so the nearest reinforcements of the little devil have already handed over the fire to the blocking troops.

Fortunately, because the goal this time is to destroy, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army have destroyed the road endlessly, so it is difficult for the Japanese reinforcements to move forward.

In desperation, we can only abandon the heavy equipment and move forward with light equipment.
