Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

"Hahaha, I think it can be used to practice assassination!"

"..."

When a group of Japanese soldiers saw the escaped "prisoners" being killed, they immediately became excited and kept waving their hands at the approaching tanks.

Akeda Saburo put aside the last bit of worry in his heart and immediately said, "Open the city gate!"

"Hayi!"

"Let's go pick up these prisoners!"

"I want two prisoners!"

"I want three!"

"I want……"

The Japanese soldiers on the city gate tower rushed down the tower excitedly and enthusiastically discussed the issue of how many prisoners they wanted.

After the Japanese captured prisoners, if they did not need them to work, they would assign them to various troops and use them as test subjects for courage tests. The so-called test of courage was to let some Japanese who had never killed anyone kill people.

Some prisoners were used as targets by the Japanese, fixed in one place for them to practice swordsmanship or shooting.

Li Yunlong sat in the first tank and used the observation post to constantly observe Ping'an County in the distance. He only smiled after Ping'an County opened the city gate.

"Go straight into the city!"

Soon, the tank Li Yunlong was riding in passed through the city gate and entered Ping'an County.

After entering the city, Li Yunlong saw two Japanese tanks parked on both sides of the gate. The tank crew members had already crawled out of the tanks, sat on the tank turrets, and were waving at Li Yunlong.

The cavalrymen behind Li Yunlong also entered Ping'an County under the escort of tanks.

"Is this the man from the Independent Column?"

"They should all be killed!"

"Number 0346 is the car that Oda-kun and his friends drive. I really envy them."

"..."

Just as the Japanese soldiers were talking, Ma Renxin and Sun Desheng looked at each other, untied the ropes in their hands, and then the two of them drew their sabers almost at the same time and slashed at the Japanese soldiers beside them!

“Attack!”

The Japanese soldiers were watching the "captured" cavalrymen and were very close to them, so when Sun Desheng and Ma Renxin's swords hit the two men, the Japanese soldiers had just put down their guns from their shoulders, and their sabers directly killed the two Japanese soldiers.

The rest of the cavalry soldiers also took action almost at the same time as Sun Desheng and Ma Renxin, slashing at the Japanese soldiers beside them with their sabers.

At this time, the Japanese had not yet reacted and just thought that this group of "captured" cavalry had rioted.

"Baga! Kill them!"

A Japanese sergeant roared and prepared to draw his gun, but at this moment, Li Yunlong turned the muzzle of the gun and aimed at the Japanese on the left side of the city gate, while another tank entering the city aimed at the Japanese on the right side of the city gate.

"Da da da……"

"Da da da……"

In an instant, the machine guns on the two tanks began to fire at the unsuspecting Japanese soldiers. Under the surprised eyes of the Japanese soldiers, the bullets mercilessly penetrated their bodies, breaking their limbs and torsos.

"Act according to the plan and take control of the military camp immediately!"

"Yes!"

Ma Renxin jumped on his horse and led the cavalry to rush towards the puppet army and the devil's base in Ping'an County, while Wei Heshang and others who were hiding in the cavalry camp began to rush up to the city wall.

Chapter 123 I’m rich, I’m rich, I’m really rich!

"report!"

"speak!"

"The cavalry battalion has taken control of the barracks and captured 277 puppet soldiers and 17 Japanese soldiers!"

"Very good! Have the cavalry battalion allocate some troops to patrol the city. Anyone found taking advantage of the situation to loot or commit crimes will be severely punished!"

"Yes!"

When Li Yunlong's tanks entered Ping'an County, Ping'an County had basically fallen into Li Yunlong's hands, with only a few Japanese devils and puppet troops left to resist.

"Report, the first battalion has successfully captured the north gate!"

"Report, the Second Battalion has successfully captured the East Gate!"

"..."

"Report, the first company of the cavalry battalion reports that we successfully intercepted three Japanese soldiers and seven puppet troops at the north gate. Not a single one escaped!"

Half an hour after entering the city, the rest of the troops followed suit and began to attack the other three gates of Ping'an County. However, before Li Yunlong's tanks entered Ping'an County, the remaining troops of the cavalry battalion were scattered outside the other three gates of Ping'an County, hunting down the Ping'an County defenders who were preparing to escape.

Li Yunlong sat in the temporary command center and listened to reports from all sides. It was the first time for Li Yunlong and the Eighth Route Army to recapture the county town.

"Report, the west gate has been captured. Two Japanese soldiers and five puppet soldiers tried to escape, but were captured by our cavalry outside the city."

After hearing that the last city gate had been breached and that not a single Japanese soldier or puppet soldier had escaped, Li Yunlong smiled. He no longer had to worry about the Japanese soldiers finding out that Ping'an County had been captured.

"Well, Lao Zhao, I'll leave it to you next. Comfort the people in the city!"

Zhao Gang raised his head, put down his brush, pointed to the notice he had just written on the table, and said, "Have the soldiers who can read post it on the notice board in the city and read it out!"

"Yes!"

"Old Li, lend me your guard company. I need to organize a patrol team to patrol the city and find out if any soldiers are not following our discipline!"

Zhao Gang paused when he said this, looked at Li Yunlong and said: "Punish him severely!"

Zhao Gang was worried that Li Yunlong would protect his son, so he immediately explained, "The county town is different from the mountains. We have a strong base of people in the mountains, but in the county town, there are inevitably all kinds of people. If something goes wrong, the impact will be bad!"

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "I know. I'll call a meeting now and gather all the company leaders to publicize our discipline. Don't worry, Lao Zhao, if anyone dares to break the law, I, Li Yunlong, will not tolerate it!"

Li Yunlong knew very well why our army was able to achieve victory in the end. It was not due to sophisticated weapons and equipment, but to the people and the iron-like military discipline.

"That's fine, but Lao Li, are you ready for Ping'an County?"

Li Yunlong was also thinking about this problem now. He sighed and said, "The worst plan at the moment is to stay in Ping'an County for two days and then retreat. Oh, and Lao Zhao, tell the troops stationed at the city gate not to throw away the Japanese flags. Keep them hanging on the gates. Tomorrow morning, have the soldiers guarding the city gates change into Japanese uniforms. I guess the Japanese can't contact Ping'an County and will send reconnaissance planes. Don't expose us!"

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away!"

"By the way, we can hold a public trial tonight and arrest all the bullies in the city to prevent them from tipping off the Japanese!"

"Okay, I'll arrange it!"

After Zhao Gang finished his arrangements.

Li Yunlong immediately went to the warehouse in Ping'an County.

A big part of the reason for taking over Ping'an County was for the warehouse in Ping'an County.

Li Yunlong's army now has ten detachments, each detachment is a battalion, and now there are only four battalions at most. It's not that Li Yunlong doesn't want to expand, but there is no food and weapons for expansion.

The food obtained during the bandit suppression was enough for the independent column to eat for half a year, but Li Yunlong knew that the Japanese's revenge would come soon. This encirclement and suppression would last for a long time, and the Japanese would implement the Three Alls Policy, so preparations must be made in advance.

Secondly, Li Yunlong attacked Ping'an County in order to obtain some resources in Ping'an County, such as sugar that had been completely used up, and gasoline and other supplies that could not be replenished through conventional channels.

In addition, Li Yunlong also plans to recruit soldiers in Ping'an County. Ping'an County is not a populous county, but there are more than 20,000 people living in the county town. He should be able to recruit some soldiers to expand the military force.

"How are the supplies in the warehouse?"

"Old Li, we're counting the supplies in the warehouse. We've got a big harvest!" Old Xing excitedly approached Li Yunlong and said, "I checked the records of the Japanese warehouse. They added a large amount of supplies before the New Year. Take a look!"

After saying this, he pointed to the food piled up in the warehouse and said, "When the Japanese invaders raided in winter, the Sixth Division was centered in Ping'an County. They stockpiled a lot of supplies here. When they retreated, they didn't transport all of them away, and left a lot here!"

Old Xing smiled and took Li Yunlong to an arms warehouse. When he opened the door, Li Yunlong's eyes widened.

"Two Type 92 infantry guns!"

"Fifty more shells!"

Although Li Yunlong had a 100mm heavy artillery, it was too heavy and not very convenient to carry. However, the Type 92 infantry gun was much lighter and was enough to deal with the Japanese. As for the 100mm heavy artillery, Li Yunlong could not think of any place to use it except to attack Taiyuan, and the shells were very expensive.

"I remember the last time our troops captured a cannon, the Japanese chased us for several days to get it back, and even wrote slogans everywhere asking us to return the cannon."

Li Yunlong remembered a story he had read before and couldn't help laughing.

"I heard about it too. It's something happening in Suzhong!"

"Do you think the Japs will ask us for artillery?"

"Hahaha, I guess they're still thinking about getting Kazuo Shinozuka's body!"

Li Yunlong smiled as he checked the other weapons and ammunition in the warehouse. There were not many rifles, only about 7.7 in total, all new. There were also a lot of bullets, about in total, but most of them were mm machine gun bullets used on the Japanese tanks.

In addition, more than 200 37mm artillery shells were seized, which were also the shells used on the Japanese Douding tanks.

"It's not over yet. There's more in this room. This is just the beginning. These are just the weapons and equipment left behind by the tank brigade."

Old Xing took Li Yunlong into another warehouse. After looking through the warehouse, Li Yunlong slapped his face and asked, "So many?"

Twelve mortars, more than sixty grenade launchers, more than a dozen boxes of artillery shells and dozens of boxes of grenades were piled up in the house. In addition, many rifles and light and heavy machine guns were also seen.

"I checked the records. This is what was left behind by the Japanese infantry battalion that we defeated. The Japanese originally planned to recruit another puppet army battalion in Ping'an County, but before they could recruit anyone, we took Ping'an County first!"

"They've really made a fortune! If old bastard Kong Jie knew about this, he'd probably be jealous. Hahahaha. Oh, and I heard their independent regiment also sent troops to attack the stronghold? Notify the third battalion and let them choose weapons first!"

Chapter 124 Kong Jie: Something is wrong, something is very wrong!

Xiaotonghe stronghold.

With the last Japanese firepower point being eliminated, this Japanese stronghold with two artillery towers was completely eliminated. A company of soldiers from the independent column led four district teams to start cleaning up the battlefield.

The guard company led by Kong Jie also joined the battle. To be precise, if Kong Jie's guard company had not joined, the battle would not have ended so quickly. After all, there was a small team of Japanese devils and more than 30 puppet soldiers stationed in this stronghold, and their firepower was very fierce.

"Captain Kong, thank you for your great help this time. If you hadn't arrived in time, we really might not have been able to capture this stronghold. This time, we have seized two Type 92 heavy machine guns, four Type 99 light machine guns, 58 rifles, a mortar, a truck, a three-wheeled vehicle, and some bullets. We haven't counted them yet. Please see what you need!"

Just as Kong Jie was looking at the rocket launchers used by Li Yunlong's soldiers, Ding Chengye, the company commander of the 8th Company of the 3rd Battalion, walked over quickly.

"Let me choose first?" Kong Jie stared at Ding Chengye with wide eyes, somewhat doubting whether this guy was a soldier under Li Yunlong.

You have to know that Li Yunlong is a guy who would never take advantage of anything if he could, and even not taking advantage of anything is a disadvantage for him. Now he is actually offering the spoils to himself? Has his conscience changed?

"The commander sent someone to inform me that if the independent regiment comes to help, they should be given priority in selecting the spoils!"

Kong Jie looked at Ding Chengye in front of him and thought for a moment before saying, "Really?"
