Li Yunlong and the others were riding in a jeep, so they arrived at the headquarters of the 1st Battalion ahead of the 4th and 5th Battalions.
"Dabiao, how is the situation now?"
Striding into the camp headquarters, Li Yunlong couldn't wait to ask.
Behind Li Yunlong were Chen Feng, Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou, as well as correspondents and telegraph operators.
As soon as he saw this, Zhang Dabiao knew that his battalion headquarters was going to become the regimental headquarters of the new regiment.
"Report to the leader!" Zhang Dabiao looked solemn, saluted and reported: "I just sent three companies to take turns to test and attack. The Japanese have at least one regiment behind the mountain, and there are only a small number of Japanese on the front slope."
Li Yunlong nodded, raised the telescope and looked at the enemy's position, looking through the telescope's field of view.
I saw that the entire position had been plowed by artillery shells countless times. It was full of craters and there was no complete place.
Later, Li Yunlong looked through the field of view of the artillery scope again, and the field of view of the 16x artillery scope became clearer.
The position that should have been littered with corpses could not see a single complete corpse. There were stumps and broken arms of soldiers from both sides everywhere, which shows how brutal the battle was at that time.
The front of the Japanese position was also dotted with shell craters made by Japanese mountain artillery, mortars and Type 92 infantry guns.
"A regiment?" Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes and immediately asked Zhang Dabiao, "Dabiao, how do you plan to capture this mountain?"
Zhang Dabiao's eyes were sharp: "I am going to concentrate the forces of 3 companies and attack under the cover of 6 Leopard tanks and artillery groups. My company will take the lead. As long as we seize the commanding heights on the top of the mountain and use superior firepower to suppress the Japanese on the reverse slope,
If our follow-up troops add up, we can defeat this group of devils!"
The first battalion and the first company are the most elite troops of the new regiment, the sharp knife company of the new regiment, and the first broadsword company of the new regiment.
Back in Cangyunling, after Li Yunlong received a deposit for 100 MP40 submachine guns, he assigned all the submachine guns to a company. The company did not disappoint Li Yunlong. Within a few minutes, he used 100 submachine guns and a dozen light machine guns to kill the Japanese.
One of the brigade was overrun.
Now there are 00 people in the first battalion and the first company. Most of the soldiers are still equipped with m3 submachine guns, and a small number of soldiers are equipped with semi-automatic rifles and a small number of light machine guns.
“This is a good idea!”
Li Yunlong looked at Zhang Dabiao, nodded and said:
"Your battalion captured more than a dozen Japanese positions in one day. To be honest, you fought very well."
"But this credit cannot be given to your entire battalion. Leave your first company behind, and let the second battalion, the fourth and fifth battalions of the division fight the remaining battles."
The First Company is Zhang Dabiao's reserve team. Good steel is used on the blade. So far in the defensive battle, the First Company has only been in position once and was used as a reserve team by Zhang Dabiao.
Zhang Dabiao also put his hope of capturing the mountain top in the first company.
"Yes!" Zhang Dabiao was slightly startled, then stood up and responded.
The 7th Company of the 1st Battalion fell on the battlefield. Zhang Dabiao wanted to lead the 1st Battalion to avenge the soldiers of the 7th Company, but he had to obey Li Yunlong's orders unconditionally.
Moreover, after fighting for a whole day, except for the soldiers of the first company of the battalion, the soldiers of other companies were indeed a little tired.
However, there was a company that participated in the battle, and a battalion also had a share of the credit for capturing the position.
"The regiment commander has ordered canned fruits and canned beef to be prepared for the soldiers of your first battalion."
Xing Zhiguo patted Zhang Dabiao on the shoulder: "Take the soldiers down to have a rest."
"Yes!" Zhang Dabiao straightened up, turned around and left with the deputy battalion commander, instructor and communications staff of the first battalion.
Not long after, the second battalion commander Zheng Yu led the second battalion to overtake the first battalion.
"Report!" Zheng Yu walked into the regiment headquarters and saluted Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and others with a military salute.
Li Yunlong looked solemn and said to Zheng Yu: "Second Battalion Commander, the third and fourth battalions of the division will come to reinforce your second and first battalions later."
"I will temporarily lend you the 1st Battalion and 1st Company. Your 2nd Battalion will be the main force, and the 1st Battalion and 1st Company will be the vanguard. The 3rd and 4th Battalions will be divided into reinforcements at any time. I must take this hilltop in one fell swoop."
"Yes, leader!" Zheng Yu said with a cold tone, "If we can't take the mountain top, I, Zheng Yu, will come to see you!"
Zheng Yu also saw the scene in which the 7th Company of the 1st Battalion used all the light in order to defend their position through the telescope.
For the sake of the comrades of the Seventh Company, the Second Battalion must also capture the Japanese positions!
"Not bad!" Li Yunlong nodded with satisfaction, "I like your boy's desperate spirit, but we can't force it. We will wait until the third and fourth battalions of the division arrive before attacking. Get ready to go!"
"Yes!" Zheng Yu turned and left.
More than an hour later, the 4th and 5th battalions of the division, which had marched in a hurry, arrived.
Li Yunlong immediately ordered the artillery group to fire.
This battle was personally commanded by Li Yunlong, and he wanted to kill the Japanese in the 10th Division.
As Li Yunlong's order was issued, a new artillery group, which had been prepared for a long time, began a new round of artillery bombardment.
"Boom boom boom..."
As the shells continued to fall on the Japanese position, the Japanese position seemed to be torn into pieces and submerged in the fire.
Since there were not many Japanese troops on the front slope, the shelling only lasted five minutes before Li Yunlong ordered tanks and infantry units to attack.
Six Panther tanks, one Satan tank, and one Xiafei tank formed a battle formation and advanced toward the Japanese position.
The tough soldiers of the first battalion and the first company had M3 submachine guns hanging on their chests and their bodies were covered with grenades and magazines. They followed the tanks and shouted for revenge for the seventh company.
Behind the first company, the three companies of the second battalion followed closely behind, and the gray waves rolled towards the Japanese position like a tide.
The enemy's mountain artillery, infantry artillery and mortars continued to bombard the enemy, but the soldiers continued to fight without flinching.
Seeing the Eighth Route Army's new regiment throwing nearly a thousand men at once to attack the position, the Japanese with shining bayonets poured in from the counter-slope of Xiaoliang Mountain and launched a counterattack, forming a yellow tide.
Countless white bayonets flashed dazzlingly in the sunset.
The soldiers of the first company who were the vanguard did not flinch. The M3 submachine guns in their hands spit out tongues of fire, and a hail of bullets composed of nearly 100 M3 submachine guns poured towards the Japanese.
The two sides exchanged fire without any cover, but the firepower of the Japanese 38 rifles was at an absolute disadvantage in the face of nearly 100 M3 submachine guns.
A company of soldiers fell down in twos and threes, while the Japanese fell down in groups.
Soon, about a squadron of Japanese soldiers came up and were all shot to bloody sieves under the intensive firepower.
Approaching the mountain ridge, the soldiers of the first company knew that there were many Japanese soldiers behind the mountain, so some soldiers threw grenades towards the back of the mountain ridge.
At the same time, the Japanese behind the ridge also threw melon grenades towards the front slope.
After a dense burst of grenades exploded on the front and back slopes, the surviving soldiers immediately rushed up the mountain ridge and continued shooting at the Japanese on the back slope of the mountain.
Under the intensive firepower of submachine guns and light machine guns, the Japanese fell in pieces and retreated like a tide.
