Chapter 707 Li Yunlong: Chaotic warfare means not obeying the rules (second update)
The battle progressed faster than expected.
It was not because of how poor the Japs' combat effectiveness was, nor because of how strong the Duyi Regiment's combat effectiveness was, but because Li Yunlong's attack was too sudden, the firepower was fierce enough, and he had a good grasp of the timing of his counterattack.
In the first round of fire attack, more than 200 Japanese soldiers were killed and 40 to 50 others were injured before they could react.
In the ensuing battle, although the Japanese gained the upper hand for a while, they crushed a battalion of machine gunners to death.
But as a battalion of firepower companies joined the battle, the situation on the battlefield was suddenly reversed by Li Yunlong.
The machine gunner and the three main companies took the opportunity to launch a general attack.
Before the two sides could fight together, another seventy or eighty Japanese were killed and injured.
The remaining seventy or eighty Japanese still wanted to fight a battalion in close combat, using their best bayonets to turn defeat into victory and break out of the encirclement.
Li Yunlong didn't give them this chance at all.
The whole battalion fired more than a dozen box cannons at the same time, and more than half of the little devils who participated in the battle were killed in an instant.
There are only about thirty Japanese soldiers left, no matter how powerful they are, the soldiers can kill them all even if they risk their lives.
"Each company will count the casualties immediately, hurry up..." Li Yunlong ordered while loading the box cannon.
A battalion commander ran over with the little Japanese captain's command sword that he had just captured and reported: "Captain..."
"This is the little devil squadron commander's command sword..."
"No one of the more than two hundred little devils slipped through the net, they were all wiped out by us."
"The three heavy machine guns and three mortars brought by the Japanese are all intact and can be used together."
Li Yunlong's expression was calm.
In the past few years, he has fought countless battles and seen more and more of the world. He has long ignored the results of this victory.
Ask yourself the question you care about most again.
"Where are the casualties?"
"I am most concerned about the casualties of the troops now..."
"Report to the captain..." The first company commander ran over and reported in time.
"Nineteen people were killed and five were seriously injured..."
"Captain..." The second company commander then ran over.
"The Second Company sacrificed 22 people and seriously injured 4 people..."
"Report to the captain..." The third company commander finally ran over.
"The third company sacrificed 31 people and seriously injured 7 people..."
Li Yunlong was very satisfied. The recruits accounted for one-third of the team, and he still killed more than 200 little Japs with less than a hundred people.
In terms of casualty ratio, the only regiment and one battalion undoubtedly won the first battle.
But he didn't show it on his face. He answered calmly: "It's okay."
"Does the proportion of new soldiers among the sacrificed soldiers be large?"
The third company commander who had suffered the greatest losses was the first to answer: "Less than 30%..."
"During the battle, many veterans sacrificed their lives to protect the new recruits."
"There are seven or eight in the third company alone."
"The new recruits are also doing well."
"More than a dozen soldiers killed the Japanese the first time they went to the battlefield. Two of the recruits killed the Japanese with bayonets, no worse than the veterans."
Li Yunlong's calm face finally flashed a smile, and he said with satisfaction.
"So, our goal of acting as a training agent has been achieved."
"The third company stayed behind to clean the battlefield and take care of the wounded."
"First and second companies, fire companies, replenish ammunition on the spot, all follow me."
"There are eight squadrons of little Japs on the battlefield. Let's kill one and there will be seven left."
"If you go faster, you might be able to kill a squadron."
The first battalion commander hesitated and reminded: "Captain, would it be a little bad if we did this?"
"According to the plan, there are eight Japanese squadrons, one for each battalion."
"If we take down two squadrons in one go, there will be troops that can't catch even a single enemy."
Li Yunlong waited for his subordinates and said, "What do you know?"
"We had a chaotic fight tonight."
"Do you know what chaos means?"
"No matter who it is, when they see the little Japs, they will get angry until we wipe out all the little Japs on the battlefield."
"If we really follow the battle plan, if some troops fail to move into place on time, or if the enemy temporarily changes their marching direction, wouldn't we just watch the enemy escape from our lips?"
"Just follow my orders."
"There are no rules in disrupting a war. There are only so many little devils on the battlefield. Whoever catches them belongs to them."
"The troops will be assembled within two minutes and then set off."
…………
As soon as the Japanese reinforcements arrived on the battlefield, they began to divide their forces to outflank the enemy. Two captains stationed at the Tangzhuang stronghold to establish a temporary headquarters.
The two stood on the top of the turret, looking down from a high position, and could vaguely see the torches held by eight infantry squadrons.
Form two encirclements inside and outside, surrounding the military column in the middle.
Four infantry squadrons quickly gathered towards one point from different directions, obviously having locked onto the railway guerrillas.
Based on their outflanking speed and distance, the railway guerrillas can be eliminated in half an hour at most.
The smile on the captain's face grew thicker and thicker, as if he had already seen victory and waved to them.
At the last moment, a burst of firefight instantly shattered their dreams.
A large amount of machine gun fire suddenly erupted from the flank of an infantry squadron.
You can tell by the sound of gunfire that the opponent's strength is no less than a battalion.
Less than five minutes later, another infantry squadron came under attack.
Then the third infantry squadron, the fourth infantry squadron...
At this time, the battlefield where the first shots were fired has returned to silence and become pitch black.
If the imperial army wins, they will definitely continue to hunt down the railway guerrillas with torches in hand.
Now I don't see any torches anywhere, so I know without thinking that something happened to the imperial army there.
"Bageya Road, what's going on?" a captain shouted with disbelief on his face.
"Didn't the brigade commander say that there is only one railway guerrilla unit on the battlefield and not the main force of the Eighth Route Army?"
"Where did the Eighth Route Army that is attacking us come from?"
"One battlefield and one reinforced battalion..."
"There are at least two regiments of the Eighth Route Army around us."
The other captain also reacted from the shock and said anxiously.
"We were fooled..."
"The brigade commander was also tricked by the Eighth Route Army..."
"Immediately contact the several squadrons that have not been attacked and ask them to withdraw from the battle immediately and retreat towards Baoding."
"Let's go too..."
"The two regiments of the Eighth Route Army are definitely not something we can fight against with our small strength."
"Staying here will serve no purpose other than increasing casualties..."
"The troops garrisoned at the stronghold retreat together and leave now."
"Boom boom..."
As soon as the order was issued, two explosions sounded at their feet.
Fire splashed, countless bricks flew everywhere in the explosion, and two large holes were blown out of the indestructible turret.
The captain's face immediately turned pale, he raised his legs and ran towards the stairs: "Bageya Road, the Eighth Route Army has already set its sights on us."
"Evacuate the turret quickly..."
"They have attack artillery, and the gun tower will collapse soon..."
Just as he reached the first floor of the turret, the second round of explosions occurred, and the flying bricks hit the captain hard, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground.
He tried his best to get up and continue retreating, but the floor fell directly from his head.
"Rumble..."
After a thunderous bang, the ten-meter-high turret instantly turned into a pile of rubble. The two captains were buried together in the rubble, becoming the two most aggrieved captains to die in the Baoding garrison.
