Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 399 Chapter 398, let’s go when you say go!

"You said that we have mortars for long-range bombing, grenade launchers for medium- and long-range bombing, and we also have snipers and precision shooters to ensure that we can kill the enemy's manpower at a distance of 400 meters! With such an arrangement, do you think one or two squadrons can do anything to us?" Li Yuexuan looked at Political Commissar Zhao and asked.

"Hmm..." Political Commissar Zhao hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand fiercely: "I will find 20 strong, powerful, and fast-running men in the regiment to help you resist the shells! Bring more shells!"

"Okay, I'll follow your arrangements!" Li Yuexuan clapped his hands happily and said, "Then I'll take people to prepare!"

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Xingyu's voice stopped Li Yuexuan's movements. Then, Zhu Xingyu said, "I'll go with you. Bring the radio with you. If there is any situation, we can contact this side directly. We can send troops to support us at any time!"

"Ha, that's even better! By the way, the team's sniper team will go with them. This time, the main focus will be on long-range combat!" Li Yuexuan reminded.

"Don't worry, I'll make arrangements right away! But there's one thing, you can't get too close to the front line, you have to keep the distance 4 miles away from Yangquan, it won't work if you're too close! Old Zhu, keep an eye on him!" Zhao Danian's words shattered Li Yuexuan's idea of ​​taking people to the gate of the county town. However, it was better than pinning himself to death on the battlefield and not being allowed to go out to fight.

Watching Li Yuexuan excitedly preparing for departure, Li Yunlong silently lit a cigarette. Anyone could sense that he was feeling a little bored.

"Old Li, it's not easy to be the regiment commander, right?" Zhao Danian said to Li Yunlong with a smile, "As a regiment commander, you can't act as you please. After all, if we make a mistake, many soldiers may die in vain! So, be patient. Fighting the Japanese is not the same as fighting."

"Old Zhao, I don't need your false sympathy. Do you think I don't dare to lead my men to attack Yangquan? If the New 1st Regiment is still here, I will turn Yangquan County upside down! Alas, it's Old Kong's fault. There's nothing we can do!" Li Yunlong quickly adjusted his mood and whispered in Zhao Danian's ear: "This little Li is really like me!"

"Come on, Xiao Li is not like you who curses as soon as he opens his mouth. He has real skills and knowledge!" said Zhao Danian.

"Haha, we admit it! But his spirit of fighting without regard for his life is really like us!" Li Yunlong still had to be stubborn.

The march started 10 minutes after everyone agreed. This time, Li Yuexuan brought the special service squad, the special operations team, two artillery groups from the artillery platoon, the sniper group from the team headquarters, and 20 strong soldiers from the independent regiment.

At least two artillery groups were to be taken away, because Li Yuexuan planned to leave an artillery squad here to deal with emergencies. As for how many shells to carry? 20 people, each person carried two shells, and some were arranged for the special forces and special service squad soldiers, so they took away exactly 80 shells. This time, two-thirds of the shells were taken away.

Of course, these are nothing. After all, no one wants to be without shells when the time comes.

After bidding farewell to their comrades, they took their dry food, guns and ammunition, mortars and shells, and began to march along the ridge beside the Tao River. After trekking through mountains and rivers, they finally reached a small hill south of the Tao River before noon. This hill has another name, Wangmu Ridge, and it is not clear what it has to do with the Queen Mother.

Wangmu Ridge is not very big, spanning only about 1000 meters from east to west. There is no vegetation on the mountain, probably because it was cut down by the Japanese. And it seems that there was originally a checkpoint or outpost on Wangmu Ridge, but now only ruins are left, which was probably blown up by the brother troops.

"Stop and rest for a while. Tianchuan will arrange a reconnaissance team to scout the enemy situation! There is a small hill on the south bank of Taohe River ahead. You can go over there and take a look!" While staying at Wangmu Ridge, Li Yuexuan and his men could clearly hear the sound of gunfire coming from the direction of Lion's Head Mountain, which meant that the battle was still going on.

Li Yuexuan came here to find an opportunity to help out, so he naturally needed to find a suitable time to join the battle. He didn't even think about fighting a positional battle with the Japanese here. His goal was to retreat quickly after the battle, and it would be best if a group of tails could follow behind him and then turn around to eat him!
According to the map in later memory, Li Yuexuan remembered that Wangmu Ridge where he was at this time and Nanshan where Li Yuexuan and his friends were about to go were both time zones and parks at that time. But now, the south bank of Taohe River is basically desolate, some of the original villages are also dilapidated, and the railway line is even more deserted.

This situation was naturally created by the Japanese on purpose! The purpose was to make the railway area uninhabited to facilitate safety maintenance of the railway.

Of course, near the county town, Li Yuexuan saw large tracts of rice fields through the telescope, and even some small houses with plaster flags hanging on them. These were probably where the Japanese used to grow rice.

From Wangmu Ridge to Nanshan, the distance is only 3 miles, which is not far. However, the scouts sent by Tianchuan need to pay attention to the enemy situation and did not move very fast. Therefore, Li Yuexuan asked everyone to take the opportunity to eat some fried noodles to fill their stomachs in preparation for the possible battle.

After eating fried rice, some simple fortifications were even built at the foot of Wangmu Mountain. The scouts who had gone out ahead finally ran back and reported a big news: a group of Japanese troops were heading south, with a little over a hundred people, and they seemed to be a roundabout force.

"A flanking force?" Li Yuexuan searched his memory, judged the enemy's situation, and then said: "The purpose is obvious, it is to attack Lion's Head Mountain! But now we have seen them, so don't let them go! Tianchuan, take the special forces and follow the Japanese. Wait until the Japanese enter the mountain, and then destroy them all!"

Since there are devils there, Li Yuexuan will definitely not let them go! Although he knows that the Eighth Route Army finally survived this battle, it would be good to kill more devils!

After receiving Li Yuexuan's order, Tianchuan and his men excitedly left Wangmu Ridge where they were hiding, and then dispersed and secretly rushed westward. They finally found the scout who had been monitoring the Japanese, and fell behind the Japanese, waiting for the Japanese to enter the mountain and stab them in the back.

"Haha, you are here to learn how to conduct surprise attacks with a small force, right?" Seeing that the special forces had disappeared, Li Yuexuan finally had time to talk to the comrades of the independent regiment.

"Report to Comrade Peregrine, our commander never said that!" someone in the team answered.

"You didn't say it, but you meant it? Then take a good look at how we fight! Then, carry it forward!"
