"Captain, the first team has entered the Japanese camp!" Wang Ping stared outside the camp for less than ten minutes when he received the first good news.
Within five minutes, the news that the other two teams had entered the Japanese camp reached Wang Ping's ears. Finally, the reconnaissance battalion entered the Japanese camp one after another.
The next battle was much easier to fight. The elites dealt with half of the artillery that they didn't even think were capable, and the whole battle turned into a massacre~
"The head of the regiment, Commander Zhang of the reconnaissance battalion, reported that they have collected more than 500 carts in the city and mobilized 500 young people to help transport supplies. The first batch of 100 carts loaded with food has already arrived on a
We set out an hour ago, and the second batch of two hundred trucks will be leaving soon!"
"Then they can get here in more than an hour!" Wang Ping replied as he glanced at the watch on his wrist.
"This place is twelve kilometers away from the county seat and eight kilometers away from the front line. We have to hurry up and completely control this place before the convoy arrives and open a line of defense..."
"Order the direct team and the first company of the reconnaissance battalion to strengthen the offensive and speed up the battle. I am giving them twenty minutes to occupy the Japanese artillery brigade station!"
Commander Wang's former enemy headquarters, combat staff, and correspondents were all in and out. They relied on them to summarize the battle status of dozens of kilometers of defense lines onto the map in front of Commander Wang.
Fortunately for Commander Wang, after replenishing the troops with mortars and ammunition, the four main regiments on the front line seemed to have taken stimulants, and their combat effectiveness suddenly exploded.
"Commander, this is the result of the battle I just compiled. By three o'clock in the morning, the four regiments had destroyed five gun towers, and the Japanese and puppet troops guarding the stronghold behind were basically forced to the defense line by our attacking troops!
"
"Although no unit has yet broken through the Japanese defense line, we still killed a large number of Japanese reinforcements through raids, estimated to have exceeded 500 people."
"In addition to taking down the Japs' forward positions and gun towers, our total strength to destroy the Japanese and puppet troops tonight may exceed one thousand!"
"No more, no less!" Commander Wang replied with a smile on his face.
"Don't forget, in another hour, we will launch a key attack on the current Japanese and puppet defense lines. Including the Yakou stronghold, there will be at least 300 Japanese and puppet troops inside!"
"Are all the artillery in place? The time agreed with Wang Ping is getting closer and closer!"
The chief of staff replied with certainty: "The two mountain guns and the four infantry guns are all in place. The muzzles of the guns are all facing the little Japanese gun tower. We are waiting for your order, commander!"
"Then execute according to the original battle plan!" Commander Wang immediately ordered.
At this time, the Japanese front line was in chaos.
The defense line was violently attacked by the Eighth Route Army, and the county commander could not be contacted. It could be said that we were in trouble both internally and externally.
Fortunately, they replenished a lot of ammunition in the afternoon, otherwise the entire defense line would definitely not be able to hold.
In this case, a brigade captain on the front line decisively took over the command of all the garrison troops. While sending people to contact the county commander, he commanded all the troops on the defense line to withstand the Eighth Route Army's attack.
The only thing that made the captain feel lucky was that there were only more than three hours left before dawn.
Since the commander could not be contacted, it took time for the dispatched communications officer to bring back the news about Liulin County. The commander decisively used the radio to report the situation here.
"Sir, what did the division headquarters say?" Seeing that the battalion commander kept sighing after reading the division headquarters' reply, the equally nervous adjutant couldn't help but ask.
The captain sighed and replied: "Don't think about the reinforcements!"
"The nearest reinforcements to us are sixty kilometers away. Although it can be reached by car in more than two hours, we are not a mechanized division and cannot transport troops by car at all. If we are on foot, it will take more than ten hours to arrive. Here we come.
Itβs no use!β
"However, the headquarters did not ignore us. A large group of reinforcements will set off in an hour and march to reinforce us. However, it will not arrive until tomorrow night, so we basically can't hope for it!"
"The only thing we can count on is air reinforcements. Planes will arrive after dawn to reinforce us. It is estimated that we will be here at 8:30. So, as long as we persist until 8:30 and another four hours, all problems will be solved.
!β
"You immediately contact the artillery brigade and ask them to reinforce the four strongholds in squadron units. They must assist the garrison in holding the defense line!"
As soon as the adjutant walked out of the command post, a communications officer rushed in and bumped into the adjutant.
"Sir, the Yakou stronghold reported that they were violently attacked by the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army also dispatched mountain artillery and infantry artillery. Three gun towers have been lost on the defense line. They must not be able to hold on. Please reinforce!"
"Nani!" The captain stood up from his seat.
Staring at the map, he asked: "Bage Ya Road, what do the Eighth Route Army want to do? Do they really want to fight us tonight and break through our defense line?"
"Can the other strongholds still hold the line of defense?"
"Okay!" the adjutant said.
"Although the Eighth Route Army's offensive firepower is very fierce, and there are mortars to provide artillery support, it does not threaten the safety of the gun towers. There will definitely be no problem in holding on until dawn!"
The captain breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "That's good!"
"In the direction of Yakou, even if the Eighth Route Army breaks through our defensive positions, they must first capture the Yakou stronghold before they can truly advance into our hinterland. As long as we hold the Yakou stronghold and persist until dawn, even if they cross our defense line, I will be able to capture it by then.
They rush back!"
"Order to garrison the Yakou stronghold and hold on until dawn!"
The adjutant replied with a look of embarrassment: "Captain, there are still several hours before dawn, and the Eighth Route Army has mountain artillery and infantry artillery. Even though the terrain of the Yakou stronghold is difficult, the battle in the first half of the night has almost exhausted their garrison, leaving only
A combat detachment of imperial troops and a platoon of puppet troops will definitely not be able to hold on for too long!"
"How many troops do we still have?" the captain asked with a frown.
"Half of the infantry brigade, but the mortar squadron and the heavy machine gun squadron are only one squad left. However, we still have an infantry artillery squad that can participate in the battle!"
"That's enough!" the captain replied immediately, a murderous aura emanating from his body at this moment.
Then he ordered with a murderous expression: "The whole night, we were suppressed by the Eighth Route Army and beaten passively. During the day, half of the infantry brigade was killed. We must avenge this revenge, and the Yakou stronghold is ours."
The perfect place to take revenge.β
"Deploy an infantry squadron, a heavy machine gun squad, a mortar squad, and a battalion of the Imperial Army to immediately reinforce the Yakou stronghold and hold it. Then I will deploy troops from other strongholds to block the gap. After daybreak,
Counterattack directly under the cover of the aviation force and kill the Eighth Route Army that has entered our hinterland!"
The adjutant immediately said: "You don't need too many troops to block the gap. You just need to hold them back for an hour or two. If there are really no troops in other strongholds, we can send a reinforcement team here!"
"Sir, I'm going to give the order now!"
The former enemy headquarters where Commander Wang is located has a very good atmosphere because the troops have been winning battles.
"Commander, the Second Regiment has broken through the Japanese defense line and is leading the infantry artillery battery to attack the Yakou stronghold. The battle will take place in half an hour at most!" A communications soldier brought good news.
"Okay, the second regiment also fought well this time. Let me tell you, commander, the most important thing now is time. We must take the cliffou stronghold in the shortest possible time. Commander Wang and the others will be there soon with supplies!" Commander Wang was happy
I immediately ordered.
