But that didn't mean that he was frightened by Huang Yu's bold idea.
He is also an adventurous person.
As soon as Huang Yu's idea came out, he was moved. The reason why he didn't nod immediately was because he was thinking about the chances of success for the troops to rush into Gu'an County.
Frowning, he analyzed the battle reports that the headquarters had received while reading: "Intelligence shows..."
"The total number of Ma Jiajun stationed in Gu'an County exceeds 27,000..."
"You just said that our artillery raid killed at least 5,000 Japanese troops. I agree with this..."
"As for the Kwantung Army that broke out of Gu'an County... my judgment is that there are more than 16,000 people, which is a thousand more than your analysis just now..."
"After all, the Japs lost a lot of people when they attacked the Dabei Slope defense line for the first time."
"Through this calculation, there are indeed only 5,000 people left in Gu'an City, mainly artillery, engineers, and heavy transport troops. The actual combat infantry should not exceed 2,000."
"The chariot force that besieged the Little Japs on the Great North Slope consisted of two companies, plus one battalion of cavalry and two battalions of infantry protecting the chariot force, with a total strength of more than a thousand people..."
"Although they are only one-fifth of the Gu'an garrison, they are well-equipped and have strong assault capabilities, and there are three heavy artillery regiments that can provide them with fire support at any time."
"If the Kwantung Army decides to defend Gu'an County and concentrate its troops on the top of the city to block our attacking troops, as long as the heavy artillery regiment stares at the city and bombs, no matter how many little Japs there are, they will be blown up."
"If the Kwantung Army decides to engage in street fighting with us in the city, then let the artillery continue to bombard Gu'an County, cover the attacking troops into the city, and eliminate the enemy's remnants bit by bit..."
"If the Kwantung Army abandons Gu'an County to save their lives..."
"Our troops directly crossed the county seat under the cover of artillery, chasing the enemy's broken troops until they were far away from Gu'an County."
"This battle is coming to an end..."
Li Yunlong became more and more excited as he thought about it, then looked at the map and continued his analysis: "Although we can only mobilize more than a thousand people to attack Gu'an County for the time being."
"But as long as we wipe out all the Japs attacking the second heavy artillery regiment, we can immediately mobilize more than a thousand people to attack Gu'an County..."
"There are still six or seven hours before dawn, and the two nearby Kwantung Army divisions have shown no signs of mobilizing. Even if they mobilize their troops immediately, we can still fight for four hours. Even if we cannot capture Gu'an County and severely inflict heavy losses on those who are left behind in Gu'an,
The little devil must be fine."
"And I have a bold inference."
"The remnants of the Kwantung Army that defended Gu'an County did not dare to fight us..."
"The more than 10,000 elite Kwantung Army troops they fought out of Gu'an County are no match for us, let alone a bunch of remnants composed of several thousand artillerymen, engineers, and heavy equipment."
"As long as we reach the outside of Gu'an City and launch an attack on Gu'an County under the cover of heavy artillery, the remnants of the Japs in the city will abandon the city and flee. We only need to send chariots and cavalry to chase them all the way."
Having said this, Li Yunlong completely put aside his worries, smashed his clenched fists on the table made of ammunition boxes in front of him, and ordered with great firmness: "That's it..."
"First raid the reinforcements sent by the little devils from Gu'an County, and then raid Gu'an County, and strive to conquer Gu'an County in one battle."
…………
In the bushes about one kilometer directly north of the Great North Slope, more than a dozen armored combat vehicles from the Wing Center base were hiding here, ready to go, waiting for the little devils to hit the muzzle of their guns.
Behind a mountain ridge five or six hundred meters away from the chariot troops, more than three hundred Eighth Route Army cavalrymen were trying to calm their horses and prevent them from making any noise.
Suddenly, a torch came into the scout's field of vision, then a second torch, then a third torch...
After a while, the torches that appeared at the end of the road formed a fire dragon, and the end could not be seen at a glance.
The fire dragon kept approaching the Eighth Route Army tank troops, and the soldiers hiding in the dark finally saw the Kwantung Army clearly under the light of the fire.
More than 3,000 elite Kwantung Army troops, carrying rifles and light machine guns, spread out in a battle formation and quickly moved toward the Great North Slope along the highway.
Fortunately, the headquarters discovered this little devil in advance, otherwise the troops defending Dabei Slope would definitely be attacked from both front and rear by the Japanese army.
Even if you succeed in holding the position in the end, you will pay a huge price in the battle.
Now the initiative on the battlefield is in the hands of the Eighth Route Army in Yi Zhong. Facing the little Japanese who are rushing towards their guns on the highway, even if the Japanese army's strength is several times their own, the Eighth Route Army hiding in the dark is not afraid at all.
"Woooooooooooo...boom..."
Just as the Japs' forward troops were about to break out of the pocket formation, the screams of heavy artillery shells streaking across the sky suddenly sounded over the battlefield. The Japs on the road were about to lie down on the ground to avoid the artillery fire when the violent explosions rang in their ears.
.
Dozens of heavy artillery pieces fell from the sky, and more than half of the shells hit the road.
The fire splashed, the smoke billowed, and the powerful shock wave was mixed with shell fragments, just like a death storm, with the impact point as the middle point, it quickly spread to the surroundings.
Even if the kid is lying on the ground with his head in his arms, as long as he is within the effective killing radius of the heavy artillery shells, the powerful shock wave will still make them dizzy, their internal organs will continue to tumble, and their ears will buzz, as if they have lost their hearing instantly...
With only one round of artillery fire, more than a hundred Kwantung Army soldiers fell along the highway. Some were motionless, while others let out heart-rending screams. No matter what the final result was, these people had temporarily lost their combat effectiveness.
"It's a sudden artillery attack. Everyone, disperse quickly...speed up and get out of here..." The little Japanese officers hidden in the team reacted immediately, running to the roadside with their subordinates, and then continued to advance towards the Great North Slope.
.
The task given to them by the division commander was to occupy the Great Northern Slope at all costs and to assist the attacking troops to withdraw to the county seat.
If he fails to complete his mission and returns to Gu'an County, he will most likely be sent to a military court, which will ruin half of his military career.
In order to complete the mission, every little devil tried his best to avoid the artillery fire while charging forward.
Little did they know that this was exactly what the Eighth Route Army wanted to see.
The more dispersed the Japs were, the harder it was to concentrate their firepower. When the Eighth Route Army's tank troops and cavalry troops came to kill them, they had no choice but to fight back and could only turn into a group of broken troops, chased and beaten by tanks and cavalry troops.
"Rumble..."
The second round of heavy artillery shells fell quickly, and a hundred or so little Japanese were blown over and fell dead or wounded on the march.
"Rumble..."
The roar of tanks reached the ears of the Japanese soldiers at the same time, and dozens of car lights suddenly appeared in front of the team, immediately illuminating their figures clearly.
"Dong dong dong..."
Dozens of truck-mounted heavy machine guns opened fire at the same time, and bullets rained directly into their bodies.
