The correspondent had already told the news to the Hundred Battle Group and the New Second Group on horseback.
Without going into too much detail, he just said that the independent regiment would join the team attacking Yucun. At that time, a group of troops would disguise themselves as Japanese soldiers and sneak into Yucun, hoping that various ministries would attack Yucun from both inside and outside.
This was not because Li Yunlong deliberately tried to hide his identity, but because he knew that there were many Japanese and puppet spies among the Eighth Route Army, he tried to say as little as possible and as late as possible.
To be honest, it would not be too late to provide detailed information when the tank detachment is almost at the end of the field. By then, the spies will not have time to inform the enemy.
Kong Jie, the leader of the New Second Regiment, was shocked when he saw the news: "Li Yunlong underestimated the Japs in Yucun too much. He thought he could sneak into the city disguised as Japs just by wearing a layer of Japs skin..."
If it's that simple, why do we need to fight together for three days and four nights? It's a good thing!"
Li Changfu, the leader of the Hundred Battle Regiment, had similar thoughts. He was red-hot when he attacked Yu Village. Although Yu Village was not big, its defense was very good.
Isolation ditch, barbed wire, and finally an earth wall and gun tower, and a bunker at the commanding heights.
What's more important is that the Japanese have stored a large amount of ammunition in Yucun... It is understood that the Japanese also use Yucun as an ammunition supply point, and there are at least two warehouses used to store ammunition.
This gave the Japanese a lot of firepower. Whenever there was any movement on the Eighth Route Army's side, they would immediately be hit hard by enemy artillery fire and machine guns.
After three days of attacking like this, the Hundred Battle Group, after losing troops and generals, only used "ghost cannons" to smash a gap in the enemy's wall, but this gap was quickly filled by the Japanese with firepower.
Now, Li Changfu can only place his hope on the tunnel dug underground... This tunnel will be dug all the way to the bottom of the enemy's gun tower, and then piled with explosives to blow it down. At this time, there will be a firepower gap, and the enemy will not have time to attack it.
When it was replenished, the soldiers rushed in.
Therefore, the Baizhan Regiment and the New Second Regiment were facing the Japs in a feint attack, firstly to attract the Japs' attention, and secondly, to cover up the sound of tunnel digging with the sound of gunfire.
Li Changfu estimated that the tunnel could be dug before dawn tomorrow, and he could launch an attack in the dark before dawn and win in a single battle.
At this time, when he heard that the independent group was coming, Li Changfu couldn't help but cursed: "Who does Li Yunlong think he is? Do you really think that a small northeastern man who can speak the language of the devil can make the devils in the world give way?"
Then I thought again, I had just contacted the headquarters, and the headquarters did not say that the independent group would participate in the attack on Yucun!
If he really did what Li Yunlong said, wouldn't that disrupt the Hundred Battle Group's plan?
Could it be that... Li Yunlong took it upon himself to snatch the meat?
Thinking about it, Li Changfu immediately sent a telegram to the headquarters to inquire.
The headquarters is worried because it has lost contact with the independent group.
The leader walked back and forth in front of his desk, wondering if the Independent Regiment would have any problems under the siege of the Japanese!
After all, the Independent Group is not the main group, with only a thousand people.
However, preliminary estimates of the Japs numbered between 1,500 and 2,000, plus a squadron of tanks.
With this ratio of troops and fighting on the plains, the Independent Regiment would be in danger!
Just when I was anxious, I received a telegram from the Hundred Battle Group.
The chief looked at the telegram feeling both happy and angry.
"You've broken out!" The leader took the telegram and said to the chief of staff: "It's not easy. You can break out under such circumstances! This Li Yunlong still has a few tricks up his sleeve!"
It's no wonder that the leader's judgment was to break through. Under such circumstances, it was already very difficult for the independent group to break through.
How could he have imagined that the Independent Regiment did not break out of the encirclement, but defeated and annihilated the Japanese who surrounded them.
"But..." the chief of staff was a little strange: "Why did the independent regiment break out in the direction of Yucun? Shouldn't they return to the headquarters?"
"Li Yunlong refuses to admit defeat!" the chief said, "No, I'm going to fight Yucun!"
Then the leader continued: "However, what should we use to attack a place like Yucun that has solid fortifications and a complete defense system? At the same time, there are not many rocket launchers in the hands of the independent regiment."
The chief of staff read the telegram carefully and said: "It seems that Li Yunlong is planning to disguise himself as a Japanese soldier and sneak in, so that the New Second Regiment and the Hundred Battle Regiment will cooperate with the independent regiment to attack."
"Nonsense!" said the chief: "How can it be so easy for the Japanese to disguise themselves? Did Yucun just come in?"
After saying that, the leader turned his attention to the radio station and ordered: "Order the independent regiment to stand by and do not take any unauthorized actions without orders!"
As soon as the order was sent to the Hundred Battle Group, Li Changfu immediately sent a correspondent with the order to intercept the Independent Group.
This order was directly ignored by Li Yunlong and he pretended that he had not received it.
Almost everyone does not believe that the independent group can succeed, including the leader.
Indeed, it is not easy to successfully sneak into the city by pretending to be a Japanese. The only one who can speak Japanese is Xiao Dongbei, and the secret will be exposed if you ask casually.
The problem is that……
They didn't know that the Independent Regiment had won a great victory, and they didn't know that the Independent Regiment drove up with tanks and a dozen shoulder straps.
Only the devils have these things, especially tanks.
So the first impression this gave the Japanese was that they were their own people, just like the Eighth Route Army would immediately regard a tank as an enemy upon seeing it.
During this period, Wang Xuexin asked the team to stop and rest for a while.
This is done firstly to wait for the independent group behind to catch up, and secondly because the monk needs to rest.
In tanks of this era, the joysticks, gearshifts, brakes, etc. were not assisted, and it was all manual labor.
Fortunately, the monk had some skills, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to persist until now.
But even so, the monk almost collapsed from exhaustion. He almost climbed out of the tank. After landing, he turned over and lay down directly. He cursed: "Xiao Dongbei, you fucking said you want to change people, you
Let the Independent Group find someone who can do this job and try it!"
Wang Xuexin replied calmly while looking at the map: "I tell you, monk, no one else can drive for an hour like you, but I can tell you clearly, we are only five or six miles away from Yucun.
The speed of the tank is about ten minutes... Do you really want me to find someone?"
"Don't!" The monk immediately gave up: "Let me tell you, how can I let someone else take over after driving this far? Isn't that why I marry my wife and let others enter the bridal chamber? I'm not stupid!"
The speed of the Type 97 tank is about 37 kilometers per hour, but that is the maximum speed on flat ground.
It was night at this time, and the road conditions were not good, and from time to time the road would be cut off and we would need to take a detour, so the tank was not much faster than walking.
It didn't take long for the large troops following behind to come up.
Li Yunlong rode up to the tank, jumped out, and asked, "How are you, are you ready?"
"Report to the leader!" Wang Xuexin replied: "Ready!"
Li Yunlong nodded and said, "Then I will send detailed information!"
