Jagged Changjin Lake: Kill the enemy and become stronger

The remaining little devils were divided into several teams, standing relatively scattered, forming a large encirclement circle, surrounding the villagers and the little devil commander, a total of 19 people.

At present, the total number of little devils on the wheat field is 47 people, plus 70 people on the outer security patrol, 45 people from the nine combat teams, and the one who came to the door to die while drinking water.

Qiao Lin did the math, and there are a total of 160 known little devils.

This number is basically in line with the size of a squadron of escaped devils.

Even if there may still be fish that slip through the net, the number will not be too many.

Moreover, all the villagers were on the wheat field. Even if there were some little devils in the village who hadn't been killed by him, they couldn't endanger the safety of the villagers.

It was four past five.

Qiao Lin glanced at the time, stared at the wheat field and fell into deep thought.

Although there are only more than 40 little devils on the wheat field, but the formation is tight, there are two encirclement circles, and then they can be wiped out under the premise of ensuring the safety of the villagers?

He can't kill all these little devils with one shot, but if there is a living, he is gambling with the lives of the villagers.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to directly attack in the same way as dealing with a five-man combat team.

Since you can't attack by force, you can only outsmart them, continue to disperse the forces of the little devils, and then kill them one by one?

The problem is that Qiao Lin doesn't understand the Japanese language, so he can't attract enemies through language.

Can't make a big noise and make the little devils feel threatened, otherwise what should they do if they get angry and kill people?

Qiao Lin suddenly discovered that the difficulty of this operation had exceeded his expectations, and this most critical decisive battle was not as easy to fight as he had imagined.

The situation has developed to such a point that simply killing people can no longer solve the problem.

"Brigade Commander, why don't you rest for a while, and I'll watch for you?"

The guard company commander Zhao Dabao said softly.

Five kilometers south of Qiaozhuang, Brigadier Chen and soldiers from the guard company had been lying on the ground for more than four hours.

Every few seconds, Brigadier Chen would look in Qiao Zhuang's direction.

I don't know how Qiao Lin's operation is going, and whether he is in danger.

Can he really succeed in rescuing the villagers of Qiaozhuang before dawn as he planned.

"No, it will be dawn in two hours, and the results will be out by then."

Brigadier Chen glanced at his pocket watch, shook his head and said.

Qiao Lin was alone in danger for several hours, and hundreds of villagers were hanging by a thread, so he couldn't rest in the mood.

"Brigadier, we don't fight or retreat, why are we here? Why did the young man who came with us disappear when he reached the encirclement? Is he also in our army? Is there any special mission?"

Zhao Dabao lay beside Brigadier Chen, whispering all his questions.

He served as Brigadier Chen's security company commander for six years and had performed countless missions, but this was the first time he had encountered such a strange thing as today.

He also knew that the villagers in Qiaozhuang were kidnapped by little devils, and wanted to risk his life to save them, but his superiors did not dare to risk the lives of the villagers, and he was not sure that he could rescue everyone intact.

The soldiers had been discussing privately all day how this matter would be resolved, and most of them felt that the Eighth Route Army would probably compromise with the little devil this time, and the troops would withdraw westward.

Although a little unwilling, there is no way, the people of a village, even if the sky falls, they can't let them have an accident.

Just after the soldiers were ready to retreat westward, Brigadier Chen suddenly brought them here.

I thought it was about to start an attack, but I didn't expect to just lie on my stomach like this without firing a single shot, which is really puzzling.

"Zhao Dabao, you are also an old soldier. You know the discipline of the army. When it comes to confidential matters, don't say anything or don't want to ask. Everything until we come here, I don’t know anything else, and no one will know!”

Brigadier Chen's tone suddenly became serious.

Qiao Lin's actions are confidential. So far, the only people in the Eighth Route Army who know about this matter are the commander-in-chief, deputy commander-in-chief, division commander, himself, Li Yunlong, and Qiao Lin. The number of people who will know about it in the future will never exceed one The number of hands.

Whether it is the grassroots fighters or the commanders at all levels, they will never know the specific inside story of Qiaozhuang's operation tonight.

"Yes, brigade commander, I will make the soldiers forget everything about today, including myself!"

Zhao Dabao realized that the problem might be far more complicated than he imagined, so he immediately made a promise.

The Independent Regiment Headquarters, usually at this time, Li Yunlong snored like thunder, but today he couldn't sleep, lying on the kang tossing and turning, always feeling that his body was covered with bugs, itching uncomfortably.

I don't know how many rolls, Li Yunlong suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up, jumped off the bed, pulled his shoes, and rushed into the yard, shouting loudly: "Commissioner! Correspondent!"

In less than 2 minutes, a soldier from the communications squad hurried over, ran into Li Yunlong when he rushed into the yard, and hurriedly asked, "Commander, what instructions do you have?"

Because of being too anxious, the buttons of the soldiers' uniforms were all wrongly fastened.

"Go, inform Zhang Dabiao, let him lead all the fighters of the first battalion, bring all the weapons and equipment, and come to the regiment headquarters as quickly as possible!"

Li Yunlong raised his hand and pointed to the outside of the courtyard and said.

"Yes!"

The soldier saluted, turned and ran out.

After a while, the sound of fast-running horseshoes sounded in the quiet village.

"It's Lao Tzu's guards who work, so I can't do without Lao Tzu's share in such a big battle."

Li Yunlong returned to the house, spread out the battle map, and muttered in a low voice while studying it.

The first battalion was stationed closest to the regiment headquarters, and within half an hour, the sound of galloping horseshoes stopped abruptly outside the courtyard.

Immediately afterwards, the door of Li Yunlong's room was pushed open, and Zhang Dabiao rushed in with sweat on his head, a rifle on his shoulder, and a big knife on his back. When he entered the door, he asked, "Commander, what happened?"

"Where are your soldiers?"

Li Yunlong glanced at Zhang Dabiao and asked.

"They are still running, and they can arrive in 10 minutes at most. I came here on horseback."

Zhang Dabiao replied.

Chapter 490 Privately Mobilizing Troops

"Have you brought all the guys who can fight?"

Li Yunlong asked again.

"I brought them all, rifles, grenades, crooked handles, heavy machine guns, mortars, and the family property of the first battalion. Only one infantry gun was left. If there was no shell, I didn't bring it."

Zhang Dabiao nodded quickly.

"Okay, let's take you to a tough battle, come here."

Li Yunlong waved to Zhang Dabiao, called him to his side, pointed to the map and said: "Tomorrow morning the brigade commander will probably personally lead the team to launch an attack on the little devil Yamazaki's brigade. Our regiment can't join in the excitement of this battle, so We can only find something to do on our own, and we must rush to Wuyakou before dawn to build a defensive line, firstly to prevent the Yamazaki Brigade from fleeing eastward, and secondly to block the Hatomoto Regiment supporting the Yamazaki Brigade."

Li Yunlong pointed to the map and explained the mission content in a simple and clear manner.

For some reason, he had an inexplicable confidence in Qiao Lin. He believed that Qiao Lin would be able to successfully complete the task during his trip to Qiaozhuang.

When the time comes, Brigadier Chen will lead the troops to take down the Yamazaki Brigade. He doesn't want to wait in the regiment headquarters to hear the good news, he always wants to do something.

Originally, he planned to follow the large army to reap some benefits, but after studying the map, he found that he could play a greater role.

The Jiuben Regiment is the largest force that the little devils stationed within a radius of [-] kilometers.

The deployment of the little devil's troops is the same as that of the Eighth Route Army. They are stationed in various strongholds based on the standard of the troop system. Hatomoto Jiechuan, the captain of the Hatomoto regiment, is the highest-ranking little devil officer in this area.

Although from the geographical point of view, the Yamazaki Brigade and the Hatomoto United Brigade belong to two different counties, and the road distance is several hundred kilometers.

But in fact, the straight-line distance between the two troops was only [-] kilometers. If the troops marched in a hurry and took the mountain road through Wuyakou, they could reach the other party's camp within an hour.

When the Eighth Route Army attacked the Yamazaki Brigade, Jiechuan Hatomoto would not sit idly by. He would definitely send troops to take a shortcut from Wuyakou to support.

However, in order to create the illusion that the troops were withdrawing westward, Brigadier Chen did not deploy troops at Wuyakou. Li Yunlong happened to discover this loophole.

Don't you use my independent regiment as a reserve team?I'm still unconvinced and have to prove my worth.

"Captain, I have two questions."

Zhang Dabiao stared at the map and asked.

"Let it go if you fart."

To Zhang Dabiao, Li Yunlong has never been polite.

"You said that the early brigade commander may lead the command. Do you mean that you may not really want to fight the Yamazaki brigade?"

Zhang Dabiao had long been used to Li Yunlong's way of speaking, so he didn't feel annoyed, he patted the back of his head and asked.

"It can be understood in this way, but there is a high probability that they will do it."

Li Yunlong nodded. There is no absolute thing in the world, and he can't say it to death. This probability depends on Qiao Lin.

"I think this battle is not small. Why don't you bring the second battalion and the third battalion with you. The first battalion now has only two companies of fighters, isn't it a little less?"

Zhang Dabiao raised the second question.

"You talk a lot of fucking nonsense. I've made it clear to you. I didn't receive an order for this mission. I set it up myself. I won't win the battle, but I won't. The three battalions of the independent regiment, you and I The longest time, I can only look for you, the other two battalions are not equipped, how can I drag them into the fire pit, hurry up, go or not?"

Li Yunlong sat on the edge of the kang and kicked Zhang Dabiao, cursing.

"Go, why don't you go, I will fight wherever the leader directs."

Zhang Dabiao grinned after being kicked.

It is not the first time he has done this kind of thing to follow Li Yunlong to openly violate discipline, and he has long been familiar with it.

He considers himself a rough person, and he is convinced that he can meet such a leader, and he has formed a habit of following Li Yunlong for many years.

That is, when Li Yunlong is away, follow the orders of the superiors, and when Li Yunlong is present, follow his orders.

Li Yunlong and the teacher gave orders together, but they still listened to Li Yunlong.

This is also the reason why Li Yunlong wanted to bring Zhang Dabiao over after Li Yunlong was transferred to be the head of the independent regiment.

"Good boy, I saw you right."

Li Yunlong kicked Zhang Dabiao again, and said cheerfully.

While speaking, the soldiers of the first battalion had already arrived at the regiment headquarters. Li Yunlong put on his hat and put on his gun, and walked out.

"Everyone is there, gather, set off, and march in a hurry throughout the whole process. The specific tasks will be arranged after arriving at the destination."

Li Yunlong looked at the first battalion of soldiers who were not even breathing, raised his hand and gave the order to set off again.

"Lao Li, wait a minute."
