There is no need to hide Wang Xuexin's plan from his superiors. After all, it is not a bad thing in itself, and there is no violation of military orders.
However, Li Yunlong still did not tell his superiors everything. He just asked the chief for cover tasks.
This was a normal request for a fight, and the leader agreed without much thought.
Li Yunlong immediately ordered the troops to build fortifications toward the south. Landmines, directional mines, and barbed wire were all used. Directional mines were placed in the dark places on both sides of the road. Explosives were buried under the bridge and wires were wired, ready for blasting at any time.
All the arrangements were made to save people... The directional mines and explosives were detonated manually, and they could blow up the roads and bridges when the soldiers of the Shanxi-Sui Army came over.
However, before the preparations were completed, a "rumbling" sound of artillery was heard from the south, and then the correspondent reported to Li Yunlong: "Commander, the Japanese have begun to attack!"
Li Yunlong looked in the direction where the gunfire came from, and then looked at the sky in front of the sunrise, and said, "Something is wrong. Why are the Japanese attacking at this point?"
No wonder Li Yunlong said this.
The Japanese usually prefer to fight in the daytime when fighting the Chinese army... The side with the equipment advantage prefers to fight in the daytime when the line of sight is good, because at this time the advantages of their equipment, such as aircraft, tanks, artillery, etc., can be better utilized.
Therefore, if the Japanese launch a large-scale attack, they will usually choose to attack before dawn.
After a round of artillery preparations, the sky will light up, and then there will be enough time to annihilate the enemy and complete the set mission.
But this time, the time for the Japanese to start the war was noon.
This means that the Jinsui Army only needs to hold out for half a day and can retreat calmly when the sky darkens.
Therefore, Li Yunlong felt that something was fishy.
Li Yunlong's guess was correct. There was a reason why the Japanese would launch an offensive at this time.
Anda Twenty-san, the commander of the Japanese 38th Division who was in charge of the main attack before the war, made it clear: Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment was the only one the entire Jinsui Army needed to consider.
For this reason, Anda Twenty-Three can be said to have done enough homework.
He sent spies and spies to inquire about the strength and fortification deployment of the 358th Regiment, and also sent a small mainland advance team to infiltrate the Shanxi-Sui Army defense area to wait for opportunistic actions.
Each member of the mainland advance team was given a portrait of Chu Yunfei... which was based on the description of the surrendered Jin army.
Therefore, every member of the mainland advance team can recognize Chu Yunfei.
At noon that day, the mainland advance team successfully found the regiment headquarters of the 358th Regiment. At the same time, Chu Yunfei had just returned from the front line inspection.
Of course they didn't want to miss this great opportunity, and the mainland advance team immediately contacted the main force to launch an attack.
This is a common play style used by the mainland advance team.
They usually don't attack directly when they find a target. After all, they have few people and are isolated, so the success rate of direct attack is very low.
But it would be different if the main frontal forces launched an attack at the same time. Everyone would focus on the frontal attack, and no one would notice the danger coming from around them.
This mainland advance team was very professional. They found the telephone lines leading to all directions from the regiment headquarters in advance, and cut all the telephone lines as soon as the cannon fired.
In this way, the regiment headquarters lost contact with the outside world, and the sound of artillery would cover up the gunfire and explosions of the mainland advance team attacking the regiment headquarters.
Therefore, the mainland advance team can attack the regiment headquarters with confidence, at least for a period of time without worrying about reinforcements from the enemy.
However, their opponent was the battle-hardened Chu Yunfei.
Chu Yunfei, who was at the regiment headquarters, noticed that almost all the external calls from the regiment headquarters were interrupted at the same time, and he immediately became vigilant.
He immediately made the following judgments:
One: The Japanese have sneaked in and found the headquarters. There are quite a few people here, otherwise it would be impossible to cut off so many phone lines at the same time.
Two: The Japs’ target is the regiment headquarters, to be precise, he is Chu Yunfei.
Three: There is only a dead end if you continue to stay here. The Japanese will block all the exits here and throw grenades inside.
So Chu Yunfei didn't think much. He took the submachine gun from the wall and ordered loudly: "All of you are here. We are surrounded by Japanese soldiers. Follow me and fight out!"
The staff officers, correspondents and guards in the regiment headquarters couldn't believe it, and they all looked at Chu Yunfei blankly.
Sun Ming reacted the latest, and immediately took out a pistol from his waist and shouted: "What are you still doing? Protect the regiment!"
"Yes!" Only then did everyone react, pulling out their pistols and rushing out the door.
Some people didn't even believe there was danger when they rushed out because the guards standing outside the door were all well-behaved.
However, just as they were wondering, a few communications soldiers in front of them, who were leaning forward and approaching, suddenly showed their rifles and knocked down several people with a few "bang bangs", and then threw a few grenades in front of the command post.
Soon, gunshots rang out from all directions, with bullets flying from the smoke and dust everywhere, knocking down groups of Jin troops rushing out of the gate to the ground.
Chu Yunfei did not order his troops to break out from the back door.
Because he knew that the prepared Japanese would never let go of any exit. Splitting his troops to break out would only distract his own forces and allow the Japanese to defeat them one by one.
Facts have proved that Chu Yunfei is right.
His approach instantly caused the other half of the Japanese troops to do nothing in the rear.
Chu Yunfei, Sun Ming and others fought out from the window, and threw two grenades before fighting out.
This caught the Japanese off guard... All the Japanese's attention was focused on the door. They did not expect that someone would climb out of the window.
Sun Ming was ahead of Chu Yunfei. After he jumped out of the window, he rolled on the ground and picked up a "65" rifle (imitation of the 38-type cover). Then he knelt down and fired with a "bang" sound.
Killed a Japanese machine gunner.
Chu Yunfei then jumped out, the charge machine in his hand clicked, and in the blink of an eye he knocked the two Japs to the ground.
As soon as the enemy's firepower weakened, the Jin troops from the headquarters rushed out like a tide. They rushed to kill the enemy and soon opened a gap in the enemy's encirclement and rushed out.
The Japanese advance team on the mainland was actually smart. They did not pursue them relentlessly, but disappeared into the smoke and gunfire like ghosts, as if they had never appeared.
This made Chu Yunfei's scalp numb.
It would be a good thing if the Japanese catch up, there are Jin soldiers everywhere, and they can annihilate this group of Japanese with just a few companies.
But as soon as the Japanese retreated...Chu Yunfei lost his target again.
What is even more troublesome is that these people are all wearing the uniforms of the Jin army. At this time, the Japanese tanks in front of them are attacking with the infantry.
If these devils hidden in the Jin army suddenly attack at a critical moment, the Jin army will fall into chaos.
