Under the command of Li Yunlong, the main force of the new first regiment continued to head north and gradually approached Yongnian.

In the command center, Li Yunlong stared at the map and asked: "How many enemy troops are there in Yongnian now?"

Xing Zhiguo replied: "According to the latest information, the Japanese's troops in Yongnian have increased to about 1,500 people, and there are about a few hundred puppet troops."

Li Yunlong said: "The puppet army has limited strength, so it is not worth worrying."

"If these more than a thousand Japanese devils guard all important sections of the road, it will be difficult to deal with."

"But now that we have reached this point, we have no choice."

"Attack Yongnian!"

Xing Zhiguo frowned and said, "What if the Japanese defended the enemy? This battle is not easy to fight!"

Li Yunlong said: "We should gradually adapt to such a tough battle. We shouted to recover the rivers and mountains all day long, and the Japanese would not quit on their own initiative."

"Especially for some important towns, sooner or later, we will fight back one by one. Only in this way can we completely defeat the Japanese and expel them from China."

"So our troops must gradually adapt to such tough battles, and cannot just stay in fighting guerrilla warfare with the Japanese and field wars."

Xing Zhiguo nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, but I would like to advise you to think more."

Li Yunlong said with a serious look on his face: "No need to think about it, the troops are ready for attack immediately."

"Send troops to redirect to Yongnian's wings and send scouts to closely monitor the movements of the enemy in the north. If a large number of enemy troops reinforce Yongnian, be sure to stop them outside the city and eliminate them."

"But the gap in the north cannot be completely blocked. It will leave a glimmer of life for the Japanese to force them to abandon the city and escape."

Xing Zhiguo quickly responded: "I understand, I will make arrangements now."

...

At this moment, in the headquarters of the Yongnian Japanese Guards, Matsuura Nakazuki looked at the map in front of him with a worried look.

A lieutenant from the Japanese next to him introduced: "From the current situation, the enemy has at least a few thousand main forces, and it is approaching Yongnian."

"They are making preparations before the attack, and they have a preliminary judgment that they want to attack Yongnian."

Matsuura Nakazuzu said angrily: "Baga Yalu, these hateful territorial eighth routes, when did they become so bold and arrogant?"

A Japanese officer next to him said: "Please Lord Zhong Zuo, this Eighth Route Army is under Li Yunlong's unit and the number is Xinyi Regiment."

Hearing this name, Matsuura Naka's left eyelids twitched.

"Li Yunlong!"

"Hayi!"

The Japanese officer continued: "Li Yunlong's new regiment is the most elite unit in the Eighth Route Army."

"And this guy Li Yunlong is bold and dares to do almost anything, so it is not ruled out that they will take the risk of attacking Yongnian."

"With the combat power of the new regiment, we may really not be able to defend Yongnian."

Hearing this, Matsuura Nakazuzu said furiously: "How can Yakura, how can you increase the ambition of others to destroy your own might? A group of bastards."

"Hayi!"

The Japanese officer responded respectfully, and was so scared that he closed his mouth and stopped talking.

Matsuura Nakazusa continued: "Our troops are still sufficient. As long as we defend ourselves to ensure Yongnian's safety, there is still no problem at all."

"Li Yunlong's troops are indeed somewhat powerful, but after all, they are just a squad of the Eighth Route Army."

"If they really dare to attack Yongnian, then we will fight them to the end. Are we on the defensive side or have a certain advantage."

"If we can take the opportunity to eliminate more of the Eighth Route Army Group and even defeat this new regiment, then we will make great contributions."

These Japanese devils naturally knew Li Yunlong's power. If they could take this opportunity to defeat Li Yunlong, it would definitely be a great achievement for the Japanese devils.

So although Matsuura Nakazuo was a little worried, he was also a little excited, and risks and opportunities often coexisted.

Matsuura Nakazuki weighed his strength, and he didn't think he would definitely lose.

What's more, whether to fight or not is no longer allowed to do so, he can't abandon the city and run away, right?

So he had no choice but to fight to the death with the New Orleans.

Under the instigation of Matsuura Nakazuki, the Japanese present seemed to have recovered some fighting spirit.

Matsuura Nakazusaki continued: "Order all troops to strengthen the fortifications and prepare for combat."

"If the enemy dares to attack, we must make every effort to block and ensure Yongnian's safety."

"If anyone dares to escape in the face of battle and lose his position, he will be severely punished."

“Hayi~!”

The Japanese officer present responded quickly.

Matsuura Nakano waved his hand and said, "Go and prepare."

These Japanese officers left one after another.

When everyone was almost dispersed, Matsuura Nakazusaki said: "Sutoki, immediately send a telegram to the headquarters to report the current situation to the commander truthfully, and request that the commander be able to provide tactical guidance.

.”

"Hayi!"

Lieutenant Zuo Teng responded quickly and hurriedly ran to send a telegram.

This telegram was conveyed to Ning Er of Gangcun as fast as possible.

Ningji Gangmura also looked carefully twice, and then asked, "Kun Kasahara, do you have any opinions?"

Kasahara Yukio said respectfully: "Commander, based on our understanding of this guy Li Yunlong, they will definitely attack Nagainian."

"With their current combat effectiveness, Yongnian may not be able to defend it."

Ning Er, Gangcun sighed helplessly and said, "This is exactly what I am worried about, but if you can't hold on, you can't give up Yongnian directly."

"In this way, the enemy will inevitably occupy Yongnian and take the opportunity to continue northward, conquering large areas north of Yongnian, and destroying more railways."

"In this way, the losses of the Imperial Army will be further increased, and it will be even more difficult for us to reopen the Pinghan Railway."

Kasawara Yukio nodded and said, "No, so giving up Nagainian is indeed unfavorable to our army."

"If you stick to it, Yongnian's imperial army will be in danger."

Ning Er, Gangcun, gritted his teeth and said, "Then he has to defend. We only need to defend the city. No matter how powerful he is, he will consume a lot of troops to capture Yongnian."

"Further consuming the enemy, especially Li Yunlong's troops, is beneficial to our next battle."

Kasahara Yukio said: "What you mean is that even if Li Yunlong can conquer Yongnian, he will be seriously injured."

Ning Er Gangcun nodded and said, "Yes, if they really dare to attack Yongnian, they will definitely have to pay a little."
