Chapter 286 This is called using one's own strength to attack the enemy's weakness
"Rumble..."
As soon as the violent explosion sounded in his ears, a white light flashed in front of the team leader's eyes, and his body flew up from the ground uncontrollably. Severe pain was felt in several places, and then he lost consciousness during the flight...
Captain Cao, the Japanese company commander who served as the company commander of the puppet army, was not spared. He hit the outer wall of the gun tower hard and fell to the ground without any movement.
"Rumble..."
The nearly ten-meter-high turret also began to collapse during the explosion. In the thick smoke, it turned into a pile of ruins in the blink of an eye...
At least fifteen Japanese and puppet soldiers were buried inside...
More importantly, the two commanders of the remaining troops died in the gun tower, causing the remaining Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold to fall into a chaotic situation where they were leaderless and fighting independently.
"Boom boom boom..."
A series of explosions suddenly occurred at the independent regiment's offensive position.
The Japanese and puppet troops instinctively thought that the grenade troops in the stronghold had begun to counterattack and were retaliating with grenades for their previous shelling.
He quickly rushed to the shooting hole, hoping to see the scene of the Eighth Route Army being bombed.
As a result, there was no fire rising from the Eighth Route Army's position, but instead several explosive packets the size of millstones were seen flying towards them at a speed visible to the naked eye...
His eyes quickly widened, showing a dumbfounded and shocked expression, and he even forgot to exclaim...
"Rumble..."
An explosive pack hit right in front of the bunker's firing hole, and the violent explosion sounded like thunder, making their ears buzz...
A powerful shock wave poured in from the shooting hole, and the two Japanese soldiers squatting behind the shooting hole were instantly lifted away. They were hit hard on the wall behind them and fell to the ground without any movement.
The remaining three puppet soldiers were also knocked unconscious by the shock wave and temporarily lost their combat effectiveness...
"Rumble..."
The bombardment continued. Under Li Wensheng's indiscriminate artillery fire, bunkers were constantly razed to the ground in the explosions. The Japanese and puppet troops hiding inside were left without bones and were blown into pieces...
"Chief of Staff... that's about it. Any more bombs will be a waste of artillery shells!" Looking at the stronghold in front of him that was completely filled with gunpowder smoke, Shen Quan reminded him anxiously, for fear that all the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold would be blown up by artillery. What would he do?
You can’t even catch it!”
"The artillery fires another round and stops...the first battalion starts attacking..." Li Wensheng nodded and ordered.
In a forest northeast of Yangling, Huang Yu is waiting for news.
After a while, Wei Dayong was seen running towards him, with an uncontrollable excited smile on his face: "Battal Commander, more than 400 Japanese and puppet troops are hiding behind Yangling... There are their warning positions and firepower points on the top of the mountain.
There are more than fifty people, equipped with one heavy machine gun, three crooked handles, three grenade launchers, and one mortar!"
"There are their guard posts and light and dark sentinels in other directions...the detection range is more than one kilometer!"
"Can you use cold weapons to kill the sentries and get close to the Japanese and puppet troops to launch a close-range surprise attack?" Huang Yu asked directly.
Wei Dayong shook his head and said: "The Japanese sentries are in groups of three, staring in three directions at the same time. We have almost no chance to touch behind them... let alone kill them with cold weapons!"
"It seems that we can only attack by force!" Huang Yu believed very much in Wei Dayong's judgment and also believed in Wei Dayong's skills. If even he couldn't deal with those sentries, there would be no chance for the others to disappear. He could only sigh and said
.
"But we only have more than two hundred people. If we attack by force, will our troops be too small?" Wei Dayong asked with a worried look on his face.
"We also need to divide our forces to attack the commanding heights of Yangling. Only by winning there can we attack the Japanese and puppet troops from a high position. Otherwise, our offensive troops will be constantly suppressed by the Japanese and puppet troops, and the casualties will definitely be extremely high!"
Huang Yu patted Wei Dayong's shoulder to comfort him: "Don't worry, I have considered two attack methods before setting off!"
"There is a sneak attack style for sneak attack, and there is a force attack style for force attack..."
"If we don't have enough troops, we'll deploy them from the rear!"
"After killing the Yamamoto special agent team that attacked Baipogou, it will be meaningless for us to arrange two more battalions at the regiment headquarters!"
"As expected, the guard camp is not far from here!"
Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!
As soon as Huang Yu finished speaking, Duan Yong, the guard battalion commander, appeared at the end of the forest, panting and running towards him.
"Consultant Huang, you guys are so boring..." He complained with a dissatisfied look on his face before he could stand still.
"The Yamamoto Special Forces were completely wiped out in one battle, and the mouth was full of food. The guard battalions were waiting in other directions, and their eyes were straight, but in the end, no hair was caught..."
Huang Yu smiled and replied: "Didn't I call you here?"
"There are more than 400 Japanese puppet troops hiding behind Yangling. They have more than ten light machine guns, two mortars, and two heavy machine guns. They have much more fuel and water than the Yamamoto special agent team!"
"Kill them, and the fire platoon directly under the guard battalion will definitely be built!"
The expression of dissatisfaction on Duan Yong's face was instantly replaced by expectation, and he immediately asked: "Advisor Huang, how shall we fight? Just give the order. The more than 500 soldiers in the guard camp promise to obey your command unconditionally."
Huang Yu didn't say any nonsense, pointed to the top of Yangling Mountain and said: "There is a Japs who are strengthening the team there..."
"Equipment one mortar, one heavy machine gun, three light machine guns, three grenades..."
"If we want to successfully attack the Japanese and puppet troops behind the mountains, we must first capture this high ground!"
"Otherwise all attacking forces will be exposed to enemy fire..."
"I have asked Captain Wei to investigate the high ground: it is easy to defend, difficult to attack, and very difficult to attack!"
Duan Yong did not hesitate to ask for a fight: "Commander Huang, the guard battalion likes to chew bones the most. The harder the bones, the better!"
"Give me this high ground, and I promise to capture it within half an hour!"
Huang Yu shook his head and said: "No...the mission of the guard battalion is to raid the Japanese and puppet troops behind Yangling!"
"You have a large number of troops, divided into three groups, forming a semi-circle to attack the main force of the Japanese and puppet troops..."
"I will lead the reconnaissance company and the special operations team to attack the high ground..."
"After taking the high ground, launch an attack on the Japanese and puppet troops from the top of the mountain, cooperate with the guard battalion to surround all the Japanese and puppet troops, and annihilate them all!"
Duan Yong became anxious when he heard this: "How can this be done!"
"You chew the bones, we eat the meat. If this spreads out, I, Duan Yong, will lose my face!"
Huang Yu hurriedly explained: "The Yangling Highlands are easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we choose to attack from the front, the casualties of the troops will definitely be very high!"
"I plan to have the reconnaissance company and the special forces attack the Yangling Highlands in a sneak attack, catch the little Japs off guard, and capture Yangling at the minimum cost!"
"The guard battalion is good at positional warfare, raids, and attacks... The reconnaissance company and the special forces team are good at infiltration and sneak attacks... The arrangement I just made just brings out their respective strengths..."
"Is it possible that you want to use your own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points... If we fight like this, even if we take the Yangling Highlands, we will pay a huge price, which is not worth it!"
Duan Yong quickly figured out Huang Yu's analysis, and without any hesitation, he directly said with a grateful face: "Then thank you, Counselor Huang!"
"The guard battalion guarantees the complete annihilation of all Japanese and puppet troops behind Yangling!"
