Chapter 261 Attacking Huting Stronghold
Yamamoto Kazuki is very cunning. Even though he has obtained Chu Yunfei from the intelligence agency, Chen Ziyun is currently in the independent detachment.
However, he still dispatched an assault team to the 48th Independent Brigade to launch a combat attack on its brigade headquarters.
The purpose of doing this is to have many benefits for the Yamamoto Special Forces in their subsequent operations.
The 48th Independent Brigade as a whole has strong combat effectiveness. If the independent detachment is attacked here, they may rush to help quickly.
Once they rush to support the independent detachment quickly, it will definitely affect the Japanese army's combat plan.
However, an assault team attacking the headquarters of the 48th Independent Brigade can definitely create chaos and even achieve certain results.
In this way, the 48th Independent Brigade cannot support the independent detachment in operations, and will also suffer certain casualties.
The first assault team took the lead in attacking the 48th Independent Brigade and was able to attract everyone's attention.
When the independent 48th brigade troops and independent detachment troops focus on Lancheng.
The Yamamoto special agent team quickly raided Kangjia Town in Jingle City, which naturally increased the chance of success.
Some soldiers did not have time to react and were directly hit by bullets and died on the spot.
After all, they are here to contain the attacking Eighth Route Army troops and thus support the Yamamoto Special Forces in their operations.
Of course, the main force of the new regiment is currently deployed covertly on the periphery. As soon as these 100 puppet troops came out, they were hit by intensive firepower.
Li Yunlong cupped his hands and clasped his fists, and agreed without hesitation.
"The Huting stronghold is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If we launch a strong attack, I am afraid there will be a lot of casualties."
At this time, the main force of the new regiment had already advanced to Xiying Village and was on standby, but they were quite frozen.
However, there was never any movement from the New Regiment, and the Major Captain who was commanding the battle also had a worried look on his face.
"Wait until three o'clock in the morning, and we will storm the Huting stronghold."
"Captain, then we have to end the battle early and go back to eat dumplings."
Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun received special care and two side dishes.
Jiro Harada, who served as the major commander of the infantry squadron, quickly agreed after receiving the order.
But when he saw the Japanese and puppet troops withdrawing, the first battalion launched fire, which also caused some damage to the Japanese and puppet troops.
Chu Yunfei smiled and immediately arranged for the communications troops to generate electricity and directly contact Li Yang and Sun Xiong Artillery Battalion.
If you want to annihilate this battlefield observation group, you must first determine their location.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, the reconnaissance team returned again to report.
But the new regiment's fighting ability left a deep impression on Chu Yunfei.
"Ziyun, if our troops are like this, will they still have the ability to continue fighting?"
"The troops are dispersed and hidden. Find a place to cook some hot meals."
Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion, attached to the mountain artillery company, advanced directly towards the Huting stronghold and made preparations to attack the Huting stronghold.
Zhang Dabiao's first battalion troops began to crawl forward, secretly approaching the barbed wire fence at the front of the Little Japanese Huting stronghold.
Sixteen mountain guns of different types carried out rapid shelling, and they directly launched fierce shelling on the bunkers and gun towers.
When they heard that there would be dumplings to eat after the battle, the soldiers all showed expectant expressions.
The dense bullets formed a firepower net and hit Zhang Dabiao's first battalion directly.
These 75MM mountain guns are very destructive against ordinary fortifications.
The Huting stronghold is the tiger next to the independent detachment. Now that he is about to be eliminated, Li Yunlong is inevitably a little excited.
At around three o'clock in the morning on the 15th, the artillery battalion troops arrived on the battlefield.
At this time, the Japanese and puppet troops in the Huting stronghold were always on high alert.
Li Yunlong is not a person with a good reputation. He has a ready-made artillery battalion that can support operations and he doesn't take advantage of it. Is he still Li Yunlong?
At eleven o'clock in the evening, the surroundings became silent, and no fighting took place.
By 7:30, the sky gradually became brighter, and Li Yunlong contacted Chen Ziyun and requested artillery support.
Chen Ziyun directly issued the order, and Sun Xiong commanded six Type 94 mountain guns to begin bombarding the blockade ditch area.
Among the system tasks, in addition to annihilating the battlefield observation group, there is also a task of destroying the Huting stronghold.
Chu Yunfei saw Chen Ziyun shaking his head and saying nothing more, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Now each company takes turns to rest. No matter what, we have to capture the Huting stronghold."
The Japanese army was using their tactics here, and they had already anticipated the independent detachment's operational ideas.
At the same time, Li Yunlong also transferred the mountain artillery company and mortar company directly under the new regiment to Chen Ziyun's command.
These hundred puppet troops are searching towards the periphery to see if there is a new regiment of troops nearby.
Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun led the submachine gun platoon and followed Li Yunlong directly.
Crooked light machine guns, Czech light machine guns, Type 92 heavy machine guns, and Maxim heavy machine guns kept firing.
The system issued a mission, requiring Chen Ziyun to assist the independent detachment in annihilating the battlefield observation group.
Li Yunlong rubbed his hands and looked towards the direction of the Huting stronghold, his eyes showing murderous intent.
"When we seize the flour, we will go back and let the cooking team make dumplings, and everyone will have a big bowl of them."
Li Yunlong looked at the time and saw that he had not organized troops to attack.
Immediately after, the captain who commanded the battle began to quickly withdraw towards the Huting stronghold according to the previous plan.
Many soldiers carry explosive packs and cluster grenades!
The first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao raised his telescope to observe and was ready to command the troops to attack.
But soon, Li Yang's six Bofors Mountain Cannons began to bombard.
"Hehehe, I originally wanted to show off my skills in front of Brother Yunfei and Brother Ziyun."
At around two o'clock in the morning, a hot white-flour steamed bun began to be delivered to the front line.
And these officers, under Yamamoto Kazuki's constant reminders, firmly memorized all the combat plans.
"Brother Yun, the God of Artillery, happens to be here. If we can get support from your artillery battalion."
Chu Yunfei looked at Chen Ziyun beside him and said with a serious expression on his face.
Li Yunlong issued the order and he was ready to continue fighting.
The artillery unit began to rest, and it was not until half past six that Li Yunlong began to issue combat orders.
One after another, the artillery shells were fired towards the blockade ditch.
Li Yang and Sun Xiong reported to Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun.
In this battle, Chen Ziyun will definitely kill the observation group.
Chen Ziyun raised his telescope and looked towards the Huting stronghold.
However, these Japanese and puppet troops were well prepared. After ten o'clock, the Japanese and puppet troops gradually withdrew to the Huting stronghold.
At this time, the new regiment was already in action, and the battalions were moving quickly.
"Then it won't be easy for us to capture the Huting stronghold."
"Captain, why don't we wait to go back and eat dumplings directly at the Little Devil's Huting stronghold?"
Chu Yunfei waved his hand and refused, looking at the new group of soldiers nearby from time to time.
To the west of Jingle City, there are the cavalry and artillery battalions under the 358th Regiment.
They began to destroy the barbed wire fence and prepared for an assault.
About two hundred Japanese troops evacuated at the front, and each of their squadrons fired smoke grenades from time to time.
"The regiment commander, who is a puppet army with hundreds of days, is not easy to deal with."
"Take the Huting stronghold and let's eat dumplings here. Even if the Japs counterattack, we can still block their attack."
The conditions of the Eighth Route Army are well known. Even in winter, they still lack cotton-padded clothes.
The Japanese and puppet troops in the Huting stronghold had immediately launched an attack.
He began to conduct on-site inspections and calculate the corresponding data of the artillery.
In this battle, they killed more than a hundred puppet troops. Of course, most of those killed were puppet troops.
The reconnaissance platoon arrived in the Japanese-occupied area to search for their location and then quickly report it to Chen Ziyun.
"But I didn't expect that the Japanese and puppet troops are so cunning. Now they can only rely on Brother Yunfei and Brother Ziyun for assistance."
Harada Jiro began to command dozens of people from the first assault team, secretly advancing towards the Arashi City area.
They were like the most familiar strangers, achieving results again and again.
"After this battle is over, we can all wear cotton-padded clothes and have a lot of white flour to eat."
Chen Ziyun issued a series of orders, and the artillery battalion quickly began to set up artillery positions.
Obviously, the Japanese and puppet troops and traitors planned to set a trap for the New Regiment overnight.
The Japanese and puppet troops were attacked by the Second Battalion, who put up a brief resistance.
Zhang Dabiao's first battalion quickly advanced toward the blockade ditch with the help of artillery cover.
After several battles, the two sides were united but had no contact with each other.
Not long after, more than 80 of them were killed, and only a dozen of them fled back to the Huting stronghold in embarrassment.
The winter in Jin Province is very cold. A cold wind blows through, sending a bone-deep chill.
Many soldiers were shivering from the cold, but they persisted with their tenacious willpower.
