Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

Chapter 266 The advantage is mine!

After a night of forced march.

The main forces of the New Third Regiment and the Independent Regiment arrived at the New Third Regiment's defensive front line.

At present, the New 3rd Regiment has relied on tunnels and reverse slope fortifications to withstand the attacks of the rd Independent Mixed Brigade and a division of the puppet army.

Both sides suffered casualties, but the casualties of the Japanese puppet army were three times that of the New Third Regiment.

After three days of fierce fighting, the various units of the New Third Regiment took turns attacking, and their combat effectiveness was further enhanced.

Early the next morning.

Li Yunlong, Ding Wei and Kong Jie established a temporary command center, with Li Yunlong naturally serving as the commander-in-chief.

"Old Li."

"How many people are you bringing this time?"

Ding Wei stared at the map for a while and asked.

Li Yunlong said: "Not many, just over 4000 people."

Ding Wei said in a surprised tone: "4000 people is not a lot, it's the strength of a reinforced regiment."

The New 1st Regiment is different from the Independent Regiment. The New 1st Regiment has to face the attack of an elite brigade of the Japanese Type A Division.

Even so, the New 4000st Regiment was able to allocate more than people to reinforce the New rd Regiment. This is already very powerful, right?

"Old Kong." Ding Wei looked at Kong Jie and asked, "What about you?"

Kong Jie said: "I left 2000 people at home to guard the city and brought more than 5000 people here."

Ding Wei was immediately amused: "Our regiment has over 7000 people, plus your two regiments with over 9000 people, the total strength is over 1 people."

"The total number of the Japanese puppet troops is probably over 8000."

“1万6千打8千，咱们这次兵力是2比1，优势很大啊。”

Li Yunlong and Kong Jie both raised the corners of their mouths slightly.

These 1 people may seem like a lot, but in fact the overall combat effectiveness of the troops is just average because there are many new recruits in the army.

Not all soldiers have guns, but we can ensure that most soldiers have guns. The advantage is that there are more ammunition.

And the artillery firepower is pretty good.

of course.

The 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade has relatively strong combat effectiveness, but after all, it is a Japanese unit of the second-line division, and its combat effectiveness is definitely not as good as that of the Japanese in the Type A division.

As for the combat effectiveness of a puppet army division of two to three thousand people, it was even worse.

Overall, as Ding Wei said, the advantage in this battle is on my side.

Kong Jie asked, "Old Li, with just over 4000 men in your regiment, can you hold off an elite brigade and two puppet divisions?"

Li Yunlong said confidently: "Of course, because I destroyed the field artillery position of the 39th Brigade."

Kong Jie's eyes widened, and he asked curiously, "How did you destroy the Japanese field artillery position?"

The Japanese field artillery positions must be several kilometers away from the battlefield, and they will be protected by infantry. Destroying the Japanese field artillery positions is as difficult as beheading the Japanese commander.

The battalion commanders and staff officers pricked up their ears.

"Isn't this simple?"

Li Yunlong told everyone in a proud tone about how he had sent the Blade Commando to successfully attack the field artillery position.

"Great!"

As soon as Li Yunlong finished speaking, Shen Quan, the second battalion commander of the independent regiment, could not help but praise him.

At the Japanese field artillery position, there were at least five or six hundred Japanese artillerymen and infantry.

The Blade Commando captured the Japanese field artillery position with zero casualties within a few minutes and blew up 12 of the Japanese field artillery pieces.

With the same number of troops, among the entire Eighth Route Army, perhaps only the Sharp Blade Commando can achieve this combat capability.

"Did the enemy send troops to chase the Sharp Blade Commando?" Kong Jie asked. He was a little worried about the situation of the Sharp Blade Commando. Such a powerful force should not be surrounded and wiped out by the Japanese.

Li Yunlong asked, "Why not?"

Everyone's heart was in their throat.

There must be other Japanese puppet army units around the Japanese field artillery positions.

No matter how powerful the special forces are, if they are surrounded by heavy enemy forces, they will only end up dead.

Seeing everyone's worried and solemn expressions, Li Yunlong laughed and said.

"Everyone, relax. The Blade Commandos are fine. The Japanese puppet troops are being tossed around by the Blade Commandos."

"It was like walking a dog, leading the Japanese and puppet troops in circles in the mountains, biting the enemy from time to time."

"More than 300 Japanese puppet troops were killed and fled in disgrace."

"Conservatively speaking, in this battle, the Blade Commandos killed 700 to 800 Japanese puppet troops, and suffered one minor injury."

After the Sharp Blade Commando defeated the Japanese and puppet troops yesterday, they immediately sent a telegram to Li Yunlong to report the situation.

Amidst the uproar, everyone, including Ding Wei and Kong Jie, fell into a daze. Seven or eight hundred enemies were killed, and the Blade Commando suffered only one minor injury...

What the hell is this army?
In fact, not that many enemies were killed by the Blade Commandos with guns.

A considerable number of Japanese soldiers were killed by artillery shells.

At that time, hundreds of Japanese infantry and artillerymen gathered around the ammunition boxes on the Japanese field artillery position.

Several rockets were fired, directly detonating the shells and killing or injuring most of the Japanese.

The power of a single 1mm field artillery shell is already very great. When hundreds of shells are piled together and detonated at the same time, the power is even more terrifying.

The killing of more than 300 Japanese and puppet soldiers in guerrilla warfare in the wild was a testament to the real combat effectiveness of the Blade Commando.

Xiong Shanglin had been fighting guerrilla warfare since the Red Army period, and he was a master of guerrilla warfare tactics.

For the special forces of the Blade Commando, who have undergone devilish training and have rich combat experience, guerrilla warfare is just a piece of cake for them.

Only top-notch weapons and equipment, sophisticated tactics, and top-notch special forces can achieve this record; none of them can be missing.

Of course, the combat effectiveness of Yamamoto's special forces team should not be underestimated. In the original drama, Yamamoto led more than 80 special forces to attack the Eighth Route Army headquarters in Daxiawan and encountered the independent regiment in Yangcun.

At that time, the independent regiment was also one of the main regiments, and it suffered a major defeat in the areas where the Eighth Route Army excelled in close combat and night combat.

In that battle, the independent regiment suffered more than 300 casualties, the 2nd Battalion was crippled, and Yamamoto's special forces were left with only a pile of bullet casings and a helmet.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie looked at each other and saw a hint of deep shock in each other's eyes.

Both of them had the idea of ​​forming a special forces team, which had never been so strong before.

Especially the deputy commander of the New Third Regiment and several battalion commanders, the expressions on their faces were as exaggerated as they could be.

They were still talking yesterday about using actual combat training for the troops to catch up with the New 1st Regiment in combat effectiveness as soon as possible.

But after hearing about the battle record of the new regiment of the Blade Commando, they suddenly lost hope in life.

This is simply a group of tough guys who have declared themselves back from hell. How can we catch up with them?

"Look at you all."

"Isn't it just killing a few hundred Japanese puppet soldiers?"

"What's so surprising?"

Looking at everyone's shocked expressions and eyes, Li Yunlong's mouth corners curled up.

Ding Wei regained his composure and asked, "Old Li, can your school run a special forces training class?"

This special forces unit is so awesome. Commandos, armed work teams, scouts... can't compare to it at all.

"I agree with Lao Ding!"

"Our Jinzhong Army's attached school should have a special forces training class!"

"Even if the special forces we train are not as good as the Blade Commandos, they are still much more powerful than other troops!"

Kong Jie tapped his pipe and looked at Li Yunlong with a burning gaze.

Although they both got a copy of "How Special Forces Soldiers Are Trained".

However, we are still in the stage of selecting candidates. Good talents like Wang Xikui and Wang Gensheng have been selected by Li Yunlong.

Instead of forming a special forces unit ourselves, it would be better to let Li Yunlong's special forces train them after the selection is completed.

They just have to wait for the special forces training.

"Old Li, don't force me to kneel down and beg you."

At the end, Kong Jie added jokingly.

"Ha ha…"

"no problem."

"I'll make arrangements after this battle. Just send your trainees to the attached school then."

"In a few months, I promise to train you two into a real special forces unit."

"As for weapons and equipment, I will also try to get the same equipment as the Blade Commandos."

Anyway, the Independent Regiment and the New Third Regiment are now under his command. Strengthening the combat effectiveness of these two regiments will also strengthen the combat effectiveness of the Jinzhong base.

Li Yunlong is very concerned about the development of the Independent Regiment and the New Third Regiment.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie naturally couldn't help but express their true feelings.

"Let's get back to the topic." Li Yunlong's expression became serious, and then he looked at Ding Wei and said, "Old Ding, please introduce the situation of both sides, as well as the current battle situation."

Ding Wei then said, "The situation between the enemy and us is pretty much what we just described. Whether it's in terms of manpower or equipment, we have the advantage. The only advantage the Japanese puppet army has is air support."

The new regiment brought 18 120mm mortars.

The Independent Regiment and the New Third Regiment each have 6 120mm mortars, totaling 30 120mm mortars.

This artillery firepower is the firepower of a heavy mortar regiment.

This 120mm mortar shell is loaded with RDX explosives, and its power is even stronger than the Soviet 122mm howitzer.

And it is highly maneuverable.

In addition to the artillery firepower of 82mm mortars, 60mm mortars, 70mm infantry guns and mountain guns, the Jinzhong base far exceeds the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade in terms of artillery firepower, not to mention light and heavy machine guns, rifles and submachine guns.

However, the heavy mortar regiment is still quite afraid of the Japanese air force. Once the artillery positions are bombed by Japanese planes, they will suffer heavy losses.

"In this battle, we must pay attention to the transfer and concealment of artillery positions!"

Li Yunlong nodded and gave instructions.

Although he brought a machine gun battalion, it was difficult to attack from low altitude and high altitude. Nine out of ten air defenses would fail. If the Japanese pilots flew their planes into the artillery positions recklessly, no matter how many anti-aircraft guns there were, they would be useless.

"The current battle situation is that the Japanese puppet troops of the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade are mainly divided into two groups to attack our base."

"After three days of fierce fighting, our regiment suffered more than 400 casualties, and the Japanese puppet troops suffered at least 1200 casualties."

Ding Wei introduced the current battle situation, and he was quite satisfied with it.

The Kuomintang troops rarely achieved such a record in direct battles with the Japanese and puppet troops, with a casualty ratio of 1 to 3.

Li Yunlong asked, "Will the enemy launch a surprise attack on our position at night?"

Kong Jie nodded: "This group of Japanese puppet troops did not fight very actively, and there were no surprise attacks on our positions at night."

A trace of regret appeared on Li Yunlong's face, but then he nodded.

Li Yunlong said that this group of Japanese puppet troops was only assisting, and the 39th Brigade was the main attacker, so it was normal that they were not attacking actively.

If this group of Japanese puppet troops attacked at night, Li Yunlong planned to use the same old trick again. He would send troops to pretend to be Japanese corpses on the battlefield. When the Japanese puppet troops were defeated, he would let the troops sneak into the barracks of the Japanese puppet troops and blow up the enemy's camp.

Then the main force will launch a wave of attacks and defeat and severely damage this group of Japanese puppet troops.

The horror of camp bombing is that when the army suddenly relaxes after a long period of intense fighting, once an emergency occurs, the nerves of the officers and soldiers will collapse instantly, leading to infighting and the collapse of the army.

But this tactic also has risks. After all, he has used it once on the Wangjiawan battlefield, and using the same tactic a second time is a taboo.

However, Captain Li was not panicked at all: "Since this tactic cannot be used, then we will formulate another plan to annihilate the enemy."

The morale of the officers was very high. After all, the Eighth Route Army rarely fought such a powerful battle.
