Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

"Captain, there's a big fish ahead, it looks like a Japanese lieutenant general."

A soldier saw Yokoyama Isamu staggering in place and couldn't help but shout excitedly.

"Lieutenant General of the Devil? Where is he?"

When Yang Wanli heard about the Japanese lieutenant general, he couldn't help but get excited. His commander had been clamoring to capture a lieutenant general before, but he never did. Now he had encountered one.

"just in front!"

Following the direction of the soldier's finger, Yang Wanli saw a Japanese general.

At this moment, Yokoyama Isamu looked at everything in front of him and knew that it was over. There were still gunshots all around, and the enemy was launching an attack. Not only were the logistics troops of the 1st Division stationed there destroyed, but the 3rd and 69th Regiments on the mountain were also destroyed.

Thinking of this, Isamu Yokoyama knelt on the ground and drew out his samurai sword.

"Your Majesty, Yokoyama Isamu's poor command has led to the demise of the First Division. He must commit suicide..."

"Captain, this old devil seems to be preparing for seppuku!"

The soldier beside him wanted to remind Yang Wanli, but Yang Wanli had already rushed out. It was not easy to meet a Japanese lieutenant general, and he must not let this Japanese lieutenant general commit suicide.

"what!"

Yokoyama Isamu roared and was about to commit seppuku.

A foot stretched out and kicked Yokoyama Isamu in the face.

Kneeling on the ground, Isamu Yokoyama fell to the side uncontrollably.

Then Yang Wanli stepped on the hand holding the samurai sword of Hengshan Yong and said: "You damned little devil, you want to commit seppuku in front of me? Do you have my consent?"

As Yang Wanli spoke, he wiped his nose with his hand.

Fortunately, I acted quickly, otherwise I would have committed seppuku by this old Japanese. A dead Japanese lieutenant general would have no way to show off in front of the commander.

Chapter 399 The whole army attacks

A few minutes ago, on the Arxan Fortress, Commander Sasa Shinnosuke of the 1rd Infantry Regiment of the st Division of the Japanese Army was preparing to mobilize troops to continue the attack on the fortress. (Note )

"Sir, Captain, look up at the sky!"

At this time, the commander-in-chief of staff pointed at the 107 rockets passing through the sky and shouted a warning.

These words made everyone look up at the sky, only to see a "meteor shower" passing over their heads and falling towards the direction behind them.

"It's artillery fire!"

Sasaki Shinnosuke reacted instantly and turned to look at the First Division's base behind him.

"boom!"

The first explosion sounded, followed by continuous explosions and flames from the 1st Division’s base.

"This, how is this possible!"

Sasaki Shinnosuke almost lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Several Japanese officers beside him were quick to support him and prevent him from falling.

"Sir, Captain, should we continue the attack?"

The chief of staff asked in a low voice as he looked at the division headquarters which had been reduced to a sea of ​​fire.

"Immediately send troops to the division headquarters to check the situation..."

Before Sasa Shinnosuke could finish his words, a flare suddenly appeared above their heads, illuminating the surroundings as bright as day.

"Flare!"

When the flares were launched into the air, the Japanese soldiers instinctively wanted to find cover. From this point of view, the troops of the Japanese 1st Division were much stronger than other Japanese troops.

At the moment the flare was launched into the air, a muffled sound was heard in the distance.

Then, grenade launcher shells fell like raindrops around the headquarters of the 3rd Regiment.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"Kill the devil!"

Ding Wei's second column also began to counterattack.

The moment the 107 rockets were launched, Li Yunlong's troops launched a full-scale counterattack. The counterattack was not only aimed at the Japanese rd Regiment, but also the Japanese th Regiment was bombarded.

However, the Japanese 107rd and th Regiments were not bombed by rockets.

However, hundreds of grenade launcher shells fell around the Japanese troops from all directions, causing heavy casualties to the two regiments.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

"..."

Explosions continued to sound, and then groups of Eighth Route Army soldiers emerged from places the Japanese army had never expected.

The Japanese army was indeed very capable in building fortresses, but when it came to digging tunnels, they were mediocre. When the Arxan Fortress was built, the exits were relatively fixed, either on the hillside or in a cave.

After Li Yunlong sealed off all these places, his troops dug out exit locations that the Japanese troops could never have imagined.

Some thick tree trunks served as the exits of the fortress, a tunnel exit was hidden under a pile of rocks, and there was even an exit underneath the temporary headquarters of the Japanese 3rd Regiment.

Some of these exits were thought up by Li Yunlong, and some were dug out by experienced veterans based on their experience.

The exit was not big and could only accommodate one person in and out, but in this chaotic situation, a soldier suddenly rushed out, terrified the already panicked Japanese army.

"The Anti-Japanese Allied Forces are coming!"

"retreat!"

"Fight back!"

"..."

There was a brief period of confusion in the Japanese army's command. At this time, Sasa Shinnosuke, under the cover of several Japanese officers, retreated into the darkness that was not covered by flares.

"Send a telegram to the division commander immediately. No, send a telegram to the headquarters. The 1st Division has suffered a devastating blow. Soviet troops are involved in the battle. Request tactical guidance, request tactical guidance!"

Although Sasa Shinnosuke did not see the Soviet troops, he could tell from the artillery that this was definitely not the number of artillery that an ordinary army could possess.

The field artillery regiment of the 1st Division, or even the artillery squadrons of the 1st Division and each regiment combined, could not have such a large number of artillery pieces.

As for the Anti-Japanese United Army? Sasa Shinnosuke had already put this ridiculous idea behind him since this afternoon. It was not like he had never fought against the Anti-Japanese United Army before. Although the soldiers of the Anti-Japanese United Army had strong wills, their weapons were very simple.

The enemies they saw today when they entered the fortress were all equipped with a large number of weapons and ammunition, including bullets, grenades, and even gas masks.

The Anti-Japanese United Army definitely did not have so many weapons and equipment, nor did it have so many well-trained soldiers.

Around Arshan, there were a large number of artillery pieces and well-trained soldiers, but there was only one force, and that was the Soviet army.

The troops they fought against were definitely Soviet troops, even though they shouted "Kill" instead of "Ura" when they charged. Maybe it was a disguise, or maybe they were Chinese troops trained by the Soviet army.

In short, in Sasa Shinnosuke's view, he and the 1st Division were definitely not defeated by the Chinese troops, but by the elite Soviet troops.

"Your Excellency, the Captain, we!"

"Retreat!"

Sasaki Shinnosuke did not hesitate at all. A large number of enemy troops had appeared around them, and the command center was under artillery fire. Now the morale of the army was in chaos. If they did not retreat, the entire Third Regiment might be killed here.

"retreat!"

"Fall back!"

The 3rd Regiment began to retreat, but it wasn't easy. Several flares were launched again and landed on the top of the 3rd Regiment. This time, there were more flares, covering the entire 3rd Regiment.

The soldiers rushing out of the fortress could clearly see the movements of the Japanese army.

In addition, the hastily retreating Japanese army had no armored cover and was once again exposed to the firing range of the fortress's firing holes.

"boom!"

"Da da da……"

"Da da da……"

Gunshots rang out again, and Japanese soldiers fell one after another. The already panicked Japanese soldiers began to gradually collapse, and the originally orderly retreat gradually turned into a rout.

When some Japanese troops withdrew from the vicinity of the Arxan Fortress after narrowly escaping death, before they had time to rejoice in their escape, a regiment of the First Column had been waiting for a long time.

The First Column had a total of four regiments, three of which had already rushed towards the headquarters of the Japanese First Division, and the remaining regiment was left behind to cut off the retreat of the Japanese troops on the mountain.

"Da da da……"

A burst of rapid machine gun fire rang out, and the Japanese soldiers who had just come down the mountain were caught off guard and were killed.

Enemies were everywhere, gunfire was heard everywhere, shells were raining down from overhead, and cold gunfire was heard from corners around them, keeping the Japanese soldiers on edge. Now they had just arrived at a place they thought was safe, but they were ambushed again.

A regiment of the First Column responsible for blocking the enemy became the last straw that broke the camel's back for the Japanese Third and 49th Regiments.

Note 1: Sasa Shinnosuke, a Japanese war criminal, killed hundreds or even more Chinese civilians.

Chapter 400 Kong Jie Asks for His Name

In the First Division’s headquarters.

"Hey, Commander, look what I caught!"

When Kong Jie led his men into the Japanese base, Yang Wanli ran over with a smile and said mysteriously.

"What did you catch? Did you catch the Japanese lieutenant general?"

Kong Jie glanced at Yang Wanli unhappily. This kid was becoming more and more unruly. He had to find a time to give him a good beating.

"Hey, Commander, how did you know? I captured the commander of the Japanese First Division, Yokoyama Isamu, a Japanese lieutenant general!"

After hearing this, Kong Jie paused and turned to look at Yang Wanli: "Is this true? You captured a Japanese lieutenant general alive?"

"Really, it's right there!"

Yang Wanli excitedly brought Kong Jie to Hengshan Yong and grabbed his head: "Commander, look at this, Hengshan Yong, the commander of the Japanese First Division, a genuine Japanese lieutenant general."
