Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

When a general is away from home, he may not obey the orders of the emperor... Ah, well, actually no one has given Li Yuexuan an order to stay in Zhaojiayu and not enter Yangquan. But in recent years, it has become a tacit agreement that they don't want him to fight on the front line.

So, when Li Yunlong and the others saw Li Yuexuan coming, they were not very happy, but glared at him angrily.

"You kid, why are you here?" Li Yunlong is a senior person, so he speaks bluntly.

"Yes, Captain, you shouldn't have come!" Zheng Changfeng also agreed.

"But I'm here, right? Now that I'm here, let's discuss how to fight next, and we can talk about the rest later! I don't think the head of the headquarters will punish me for being here, right?"

After hearing what Li Yuexuan said, everyone knew that there was no way to get him to go back, so they just accepted this fact.

"By the way, Captain Li, when I came here, I gave an order to the troops you left behind to move to the northern railway line, dismantle the railway line first, and then build a defensive position in the north based on Zhaojiayu as a node. Now that we have attacked Yangquan, it will be most convenient and fastest for the Japanese in Jingxing to attack along the railway line! Also, your artillery company remains in Zhaojiayu." Li Yuexuan said.

"It's right to leave the artillery company behind! No matter whether the Japanese in Jingxing can get through or not, as long as we have the artillery company in charge, we will have confidence! What's more, the thing we have the most is cannons! Zhang Dabiao seized the Japanese artillery battalion for us, and there are 12 mountain cannons there. Haha, the brigade commander is in Taiyue area, so he can only watch!" Li Yunlong grinned happily.

"By the way, Commander, the villagers in Zhaojiayu heard that the troops were fighting, so they prepared some dry food overnight and organized militia and the Women's Rescue Association to bring it here! Also, my sister-in-law missed you, so she followed me!"

"You are talking nonsense! Xiuqin just got married, she can just stay in Zhaojiayu as a bride, why did you bring her here? Besides, this is a battlefield, it's not safe!" Political Commissar Zhao was anxious.

"When the war breaks out, no place is safe, and I can't control Sister Xiuqin's stubborn temper!" Li Yuexuan spread his hands.

"Hehe, while the men are fighting, the women should stay behind. I will blame her later! Now, let's continue discussing how to attack Yangquan!" Li Yunlong said as he straightened his clothes.

"First of all, can you use the Japanese mountain artillery? Secondly, when the Japanese bombers come, do we have the air defense capability? Also, the counties around Yangquan will definitely receive reinforcements, and Lao Kong's new second regiment will face reinforcements from Shouyang, Yuci, Jinzhong, Taiyuan and other directions. Can he hold on?" Li Yuexuan first asked everyone a few questions.

"I believe Lao Kong can hold on for at least one day! As for air defense, we'll leave it to fate! By the way, who can use the artillery? If not, just bombard the city walls!" said Li Yunlong.

"I knew you would say that!" Li Yuexuan sighed inwardly, and then said: "Fortunately, when I was in the headquarters arsenal, I was not idle. I also learned how to use the Japanese mountain cannons from the comrades of the headquarters artillery regiment. So when the battle starts, the mountain cannons captured by the Japanese will be under my command! And our artillery battalion will also be under my command!" "Captain Guo, we can't have too many people to attack the city, so the task of air defense is handed over to your battalion! You should immediately look for straw and other things that are heavy and smoky, and place them on our attack positions. When you hear the Japanese bombers coming, light the straw and use smoke to block the bombers' sight."

"Don't be stupid and just light fires on our positions. Spread out and set up more smoke zones! When the whole Yangquan City is covered with black smoke, let the planes overhead guess where we are!"

"Captain Zheng, don't rush to fight for the task of attacking the city. Now, immediately, dig a pit every 400 meters, 500 to 50 meters south of the railway line. It must be here!" Li Yuexuan gave Zheng Changfeng a simulation of a mountain artillery position, including the specifications of the gun pit.

"Captain Guo, burning straw can only be a passive defense. The enemy's bombs may also be dropped on our heads, so when we attack, your squadron should crowd into the attack position and dig more anti-artillery pits! Although the enemy's aerial bombs are very powerful and can kill people if they are close to the bomb, with anti-artillery pits, we can at least avoid the shock waves and fragments from the ground!"

"In addition, we don't need too many heavy and light machine guns for sieges. You should arrange for people to take over all the idle heavy and light machine guns, set up the anti-aircraft mounts for the heavy machine guns, and arrange for the soldiers to prepare for anti-aircraft shooting. Oh, and for the anti-aircraft machine guns, it would be best if there were combat pits and sandbag walls to protect our soldiers."

"In fact, it's all written in my book. At this time, there should be fake positions to confuse the enemy bombers! For example, use wood to build a mountain cannon and arrange it into a position... Now is not the time to talk about this. Now let's talk about siege!"

"On my way here, I also saw the blueprints and materials of Yangquan's renovation, so it was a designated plan for the Japanese to build some bunkers on the city wall, and we also know the locations of some bunkers! But even if we know them, it's not easy to deal with them! But it doesn't matter, I will use mountain artillery to directly bomb the outer layers of those bunkers, and use heavy mortars to bomb the tops."

"When we attack, our snipers must not sit idle. Find places all over the battlefield and build your own positions! Once the attacking team is blocked by the enemy's machine guns, the snipers will eliminate the enemy's machine gun positions! If you can't shoot the bullet into the enemy's firing hole within 300 meters, don't say that these snipers are my apprentices and the apprentices of the land!"

"Well, the most crucial point! Aren't our armored modified vehicles right next to us? It's time to use the coordinated operations of artillery, infantry and tanks! Okay, this is my simple plan. Does anyone have any opinions? If you have any opinions, please add them. If not, then let's execute it!" Li Yuexuan's position is the deputy commander of the Beishan Detachment. Here he is half a level higher in rank and has the confidence to speak with confidence.

"My opinion is, should our independent regiment launch the main attack?" Li Yunlong asked.

"Well, your independent regiment will take the lead! But for those who follow the armored vehicles, I need to arrange for the quick reaction company to follow up, because they are the only ones who have been specially trained with the special operations team! And your independent regiment, after breaking the city gate, will immediately attack into the city, quickly occupy all the high ground along the city wall, and circle Yangquan! Let's close the gate and beat the dog!"

"Okay, let's split up and act accordingly. As long as we move fast enough and get into the city before the Japanese bombers arrive, the Japanese bombers will be useless!" (End of this chapter)
