Cao Wangde took his puppet army and left all the weapons and equipment after withdrawing.
More than fifty puppet troops who chose to stay in the Eighth Route Army to fight against the Japanese cooperated with Li Yunlong's team to quickly clean up the battlefield at the Yangquan stronghold.
After the seizure information came out, Li Yunlong's mouth almost broke out in laughter.
Because of the sudden attack by puppet troops like Cao Wangde, the Japanese army, which had originally held out hope, did not even have time to focus on destroying the weapons and ammunition in their hands.
In addition, under the command of Li Yunlong, the fourth battalion attacked the stronghold with a fierce offensive. The Japs had little power to fight back. The two sides did not fight fiercely, and the Japanese troops who fought did not consume much ammunition.
Now, the materials, equipment and ammunition in the stronghold fell into Li Yunlong's hands.
Zhang Dabiao came over to report with a smile on his face, and said: "Commander, three heavy machine guns have been captured. One of them is placed in the warehouse. It is brand new and has not been touched at all.
A dozen light machine guns, ten grenade launchers, and quite a few rifles were seized. In addition to those seized from the Japs and those seized by the puppet troops on their own initiative, there were nearly five hundred, plus a large number that the Japs had no time to blow up.
Ammunition, we have made a lot of money in this battle."
Li Yunlong nodded and said with emotion: "Lao Kong gave us a big gift! I owe Lao Kong another favor."
"It's just..."
"Just what?"
"It's just because our artillery fire was so fierce that we used infantry artillery to blow up the enemy's turrets. Many weapons were damaged. Nearly 40% of the captured equipment was damaged."
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, the repair shop of our independent regiment is not a decoration. Just take these damaged equipment back and let them repair them."
"Yes!"
The soldiers continued to clean the battlefield. Wang Chengzhu, commander of the artillery company, directed the soldiers of the artillery company to gather the infantry cannons and projectiles, apparently preparing to transport them back to the station.
Looking at the ten catapults, they played a big role in this attack on the big stronghold.
Li Yunlong was a little sour. Lao Kong just quietly set up a repair shop. The key is that it is really useful. It is a new type of explosive pack, and it is a projectile that can project cluster grenades and explosive packs.
,How come this kid is so lucky?
Even talents are everywhere. One expert gunner, Wang Chengzhu, is not enough, but there is also a howitzer.
Li Yunlong strode over and came up with Wang Chengzhu's idea.
If Li Yunlong remembers correctly, this pillar was borrowed from Kong Erluzi when he was the leader of the new regiment.
I haven’t paid it back yet!
"Zhuzi, hehe, this battle was really good. How about I treat you to some sweet potato roast later?"
Wang Chengzhu replied: "Report to the deputy commander, the commander said, if I win this battle, go back and record the merits for me. As for the sweet potato burning, as long as there is no bad thing, I can take care of it at any time!"
"Deputy leader, if you want to drink sweet potato roast, I can buy it for you."
Li Yunlong: "..."
Damn it, you stupid Kong Er, you...
"Ahem, Zhuzi, let me discuss with you. You also know how you came to this independent group back then..."
"You, the deputy leader, didn't sell it to me!"
Wang Chengzhu is an honest man and does not hide his words.
Li Yunlong choked, widened his eyes and cursed, "Damn it, who said this?"
"The captain said that Gensheng and I were exchanged for supplies from you, the deputy captain," Wang Chengzhu said.
Li Yunlong: "..."
"You successfully hit Li Yunlong, personal charm 1."
Kong Jie: "???"
On the southbound highway, Kong Jie, who was watching the soldiers of the third battalion cleaning the battlefield, was stunned on the spot.
What's going on?
……
Li Yunlong is at his wits end. Well, Zhuzi is still the same tempered guy as before.
Once this honest man tells the truth, his words really hurt his heart.
Li Yunlong simply stopped beating around the bush and said, "Zhuzi, if I go to Lao Kong and tell him clearly and ask him to let you go to me, and you become the platoon leader of the artillery platoon in my new second regiment, will you be willing?"
?"
Wang Chengzhu fell silent, looking embarrassed.
The howitzer on the side fanned the flames and said: "Company commander, go, you go, from now on I will be the company commander of the artillery company!"
Li Yunlong: "..."
"Report to the deputy commander, grenades, infantry guns, mortars, I don't care if I am the company commander of the artillery company or the platoon commander of the artillery platoon, but I care about these guns of mine, as long as they are in the independent regiment, where can I
I won’t go either!”
Their eyes met, and the two sides were silent. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment. After a moment, Li Yunlong suddenly laughed, patted Wang Chengzhu on the shoulder and said: "Zhuzi, I am joking with you, do you really take it seriously?"
Li Yunlong has finally given up the idea of poaching people.
Even Wang Chengzhu couldn't pass this test, let alone Kong Er. If he could give someone else, he would have to go to hell.
While the soldiers of the fourth battalion continued to clean the battlefield, the scouts sent to the third route to investigate the situation soon returned and reported to Li Yunlong:
"Reporting to the deputy commander, when we rushed over, the battle with the three-way reinforcement team headed by the commander was over."
Li Yunlong nodded and said happily: "I guess our attack speed is too fast. The Japanese and puppet troops haven't arrived yet. We heard that the stronghold has been breached by us, so we withdrew."
The scout said: "Deputy Commander, just twenty minutes ago, the reinforcements along the southbound highway, a squadron of Japanese soldiers plus a battalion of puppet troops, were completely wiped out by the troops led by the third battalion commander in the middle section of the southbound highway.
Except for the more than 100 puppet soldiers who were captured.
It is said that the Japanese and puppet troops heading north and east were because we attacked the stronghold too quickly. After learning that the Yangquan stronghold was breached, the Japanese command directly issued an order to retreat. The first battalion commander and the second battalion commander were
The Japanese and puppet troops ambushed by the battalion commander immediately chose to retreat, so they were only severely damaged and some of the Japanese and puppet troops escaped."
"What? So, in less than an hour, all the Japanese and puppet troops who came to support from Sanxiang County were completely wiped out, and the other two were severely damaged and fled?"
"Yes." said the scout.
Li Yunlong was silent, and the fourth battalion commander Zhang Dabiao, who also heard the news, was shocked.
Originally, the Fourth Battalion had captured the Yangquan stronghold in less than an hour. Deputy Commander Li Yunlong and Fourth Battalion Commander Zhang Dabiao were feeling proud.
Who would have known that in such a blink of an eye, the three battalions of Commander Kong Jie would directly wipe out all the Japanese reinforcements and severely damage the other two Japanese reinforcements.
The regiment commander Kong Jie did not even participate in the reinforcement command of the three battalions.
This little achievement of establishing a stronghold suddenly felt like it was nothing.
This reminded Li Yunlong of the conversation he had with Kong Jie a few days ago:
"Lao Kong, there are three lines of reinforcements. Each of the Japanese reinforcements can dispatch at least one squadron of Japanese troops. Coupled with a large number of Imperial Army troops, the two sides will start a positional battle. The Japanese have a great advantage in artillery fire. The pressure on your three battalions is not small.
, what method are you going to use to fight for reinforcements?"
"Lao Li, you don't have to worry about this. I have my own plan."
"Okay, since you, Lao Kong, have said so, I won't ask any more questions. As long as your three-way reinforcement team can hold on for more than two hours, my stronghold can definitely handle it."
"Don't worry, let alone two hours, two more hours is fine. Lao Li, after you take over the stronghold, don't retreat in a hurry. Clean the battlefield carefully. Don't miss a single bullet casing. Turn around.
The garage can also come in handy."
……
Now Li Yunlong finally knows why he did not receive any reinforcements from the Japanese and puppet troops during the whole process of attacking the stronghold.
Annihilate all the way and hit hard on both!
Doesn’t this mother look like she’s going to fight for help?
Li Yunlong suddenly wondered whether Lao Kong was rushing to annihilate the three-way reinforcement force of the Japanese?
"Tell me carefully, how did the first battalion, second battalion, and third battalion carry out this reinforcement battle?"
"Yes!" the scout squad leader replied: "The deputy commander, the first battalion, the second battalion, and the third battalion. Their specific tactics to ambush the Japanese are different, but they all use concrete. The reinforcements of the Japanese and puppet troops must pass through in advance.
On the road, bunkers and machine gun fortifications were built."
"Concrete?"
"Yes, it is the sand, cement, and some gravel and concrete that we captured during the attack on the small and medium-sized turrets of the Japanese during this period."
Li Yunlong suddenly said: "Damn, that's what happened. I understand. With these concrete bunkers as defense, the Japanese artillery fire was of no use at all. No wonder the three Japanese and puppet reinforcements were almost wiped out.<
/p>
In the past two years, we have been tortured so much by the Japs’ bunker strongholds. His brain is really fast, and he also used the bunkers to disgust the Japs!”
