Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

Chapter 441: Shells falling from the sky!
Jiangjunling was originally a barren mountain with no villages.

The place became lively only when the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army built a group of defensive fortifications.

Later, in order to avoid disaster, the 358th Regiment moved its headquarters and main force from Daogu Mountain to the outside of Jiangjunling, and stationed tents on both sides of the road, making the place more lively.

With the firepower of the new regiment, if three or four artillery battalions were assembled to launch several rounds of salvos at the 358th regiment’s base, the 358th regiment would be severely damaged on the spot.

However, Chu Yunfei believed that given Li Yunlong's character, he would never do such a thing, and it would not be good for Li Yunlong.

Even Li Yunlong did not dare to commit the crime of undermining the national united front in the War of Resistance.

At this time, the sound of large truck engines, the clashing of tracks, and the roar of tanks could be heard coming from the road.

The soldiers of the 358th Regiment were shocked and came out of the tents with guns in hand, and then they saw an unbelievable scene.

I saw the Eighth Route Army's exquisite heavy artillery being towed by tractors, and tanks, howitzers, mountain cannons and anti-aircraft guns lined up in a long queue of more than ten kilometers on the road.

In the big truck, the Eighth Route Army soldiers, armed with live ammunition, submachine guns and infantry, looked solemn and murderous.

The equipment is neat and uniform.

This scene stunned the officers and soldiers of the 358th Regiment!

This big truck, this big tank, this big cannon caliber, the Japanese's little cannons, little tanks and little trucks can't compare at all.

Chu Yunfei, Fang Ligong and Sun Ming were also among the onlookers. When they saw this scene, they couldn't help but gasp.

"Is this an Eighth Route Army regiment?"

"Just now I saw the artillery units coming over. There were two or three artillery regiments, and they were heavy artillery regiments!"

Fang Ligong pushed his glasses, and behind the round-frame glasses were a pair of eyes that were shocked to the extreme.

"This... the Eighth Route Army is too wealthy."

Even Sun Ming's expression was filled with shock at this moment.

Chu Yunfei was both shocked and envious. How great it would be if these heavy artillery, large trucks and tanks were his own.

I have attended military school, while Li Yunlong is just a peasant. These heavy weapons are definitely more powerful in my hands than in Li Yunlong's hands.

"What is Li Yunlong doing?"

After being shocked, Fang Ligong and Sun Ming both showed expressions of confusion on their faces.

"What else can we do? We must attack the 14th Division."

Chu Yunfei said in a deep voice.

He felt a little uncomfortable. Didn't Li Yunlong agree to cooperate with them to fight the 14th Division? Why did he just do it on his own? Not only did he not cooperate with the 358th Regiment, he didn't even say hello.

Obviously, Li Yunlong believed that the New 14st Regiment alone could deal with the 358th Division and there was no need to cooperate with the th Regiment.

"Li Yunlong is really brave!"

Fang Ligong's tone became more and more shocked.

The 14th Division was one of the Type A divisions of the Japanese Army. It was well-trained and had extremely high combat effectiveness. An infantry regiment of the enemy could easily eliminate the 358th Regiment.

Chu Yunfei said sourly: "If I had these heavy equipment, I would dare to do it."

"That's true!" Fang Ligong nodded. "Li Yunlong's weapons are much better than the little Japanese weapons."

Chu Yunfei originally wanted to stop an Eighth Route Army soldier and ask where Li Yunlong was.

But with all sorts of huge trucks and heavy weapons speeding past, he had no chance at all.

Not long after, a jeep stopped by the side of the road and Li Yunlong jumped out of the jeep.

"Brother Yunlong."

Looking at the American Willys Jeep in front of him, Chu Yunfei quickly suppressed his envy and immediately went up to it. As soon as they met, he started to question the culprit:

"You're so mean! We agreed that our two regiments would work together to attack the 14th Division. It's fine if you don't cooperate with our regiment, but why didn't you even say hello?"

"Brother Chu, look at my memory." Li Yunlong pretended to slap his forehead, "I forgot about this, I'm really sorry, I apologize to you." Not cooperating with the 358th Regiment and not informing in advance was certainly not because he didn't trust Chu Yunfei.

But he didn't trust Yan Laoxi. The 358th Regiment needed to ask for instructions from its superiors before fighting. If Yan Laoxi leaked his attack plan to the Japanese, the consequences would be unimaginable.

In addition, Li Yunlong never really trusted his allies. What if they backstabbed him at a critical moment?

Chu Yunfei was speechless. He suspected that Li Yunlong did it on purpose, but he had no evidence.

But the other party has apologized, what else can he do?

Beat up Li Yunlong?
As soon as he took action, these thousands or tens of thousands of Eighth Route Army soldiers would immediately rush up and tear the entire 358th Regiment into pieces.

"Brother Yunlong, can my 358th Regiment now join the battle?"

Chu Yunfei asked after thinking for a moment.

Li Yunlong said in embarrassment: "This is not easy to do. Our New 358st Regiment's battle plan has been finalized. If your th Regiment joins in, it will disrupt our original battle plan."

Li Yunlong was not confident in sending the 358th Regiment to fight the Japanese reinforcements, as the combat effectiveness of the 358th Regiment was not as good as that of an infantry battalion of the New st Regiment.

It would be a lot of fun if Yan Laoxi conserved his strength and ordered the 358th Regiment to abandon its position and head to Luliang Mountain at a critical moment.

"alright."

Chu Yunfei nodded:
"Then can I organize the officers of my regiment to go to the front line to observe your regiment fighting against the Japanese army?"

Chu Yunfei wanted to see the combat mode of the Eighth Route Army and the combat effectiveness of the New 1st Regiment.

Li Yunlong thought for a moment and said, "Of course you can, but I don't have any extra trucks right now, so you'll have to go on your own."

"Thank you, Brother Yunlong. That's no problem." Chu Yunfei said, "We can go there on horseback."

"Then Brother Chu, see you later."

"Brother Yunlong, see you later."

The two men bowed to each other, and Li Yunlong jumped into the jeep and followed the main force under the protection of armed guards in two large trucks.

Chu Yunfei ordered the deputy regiment commander to watch in the camp, and then quickly summoned the battalion commanders and company commanders to form a battlefield observation group, following the main force of the new regiment and heading towards Heyuan County.

Not long after, because the Blade Commando eliminated the Japanese scouts, the main force of the New 1st Regiment successfully arrived at the Japanese's first line of defense, Laofenling.

On the road from Ping'an County to Heyuan County, the Japanese built three lines of defense.

As the name suggests, Laofenling is where local people bury their relatives after their death. In order to build fortifications here, the Japanese dug up the ancestral graves of local residents.

"Laofenling, that's a good name, it's suitable for the devil's cemetery."

In the regiment headquarters, various troops were preparing for the attack, and Li Yunlong had a grim expression.

Hearing that the Japanese had dug up the local people's ancestral graves, Li Yunlong said calmly: "Then let the Japanese be buried with them."

"Fire!"

Then, Li Yunlong gave the order.

Because it was a blitzkrieg, the Japanese soldiers in Laofenling had no idea that the Eighth Route Army's motorized troops had arrived nearby.

When heavy artillery shells fell from the sky, the sleeping Japanese soldiers were awakened.

As soon as the artillery fire stopped, more than 10 tanks from the 100nd Tank Battalion of the New st Regiment and more than infantrymen armed with submachine guns had arrived at the Japanese front line.

With the visibility provided by the flares, the Japanese anti-tank guns on the flank opened fire.

"Ding!"

The 37mm shell hit the side armor of the tank but bounced off.

"Nani?"

The Japanese anti-tank gunner's face changed drastically when he saw this scene.
