At the Dongliang stronghold, the adjutant burst into Sasaki's office with a smile on his face like the wind!
"Sir, we found it!"
"The third reconnaissance team found a large amount of military equipment in this forest. It must be the target we are looking for!"
"The Eighth Route Army is so cunning. All the troops in the three woods in front of us deliberately prevented us from entering the woods and confuse the public. Fortunately, sir, you are sensible and did not fall into the trap. Otherwise, all the troops in our hands would have been dispatched before we could find the equipment!"
Sasaki's serious face finally showed a long-lost smile!
Answered decisively: "Very good. Now that the equipment has been found, the next thing we need to do is snatch it back!"
"Order: Immediately dispatch a reinforced squadron from the stronghold and march quickly to kill it!"
"We will kill all the remaining troops deployed on the blockade and concentrate the strength of the two reinforced squadrons to recapture those military equipment!"
The adjutant hesitated and reminded: "Should we order the imperial troops on the other three battlefields to kill them too!"
"There are two reinforced squadrons on each battlefield, which adds up to two reinforced squadrons!"
Sasaki shook his head and replied: "No, they won't move. They will continue to fight on the same spot and kill the Eighth Route Army that is fighting them!"
"This time I not only want to snatch back the equipment, but also kill all the Eighth Route Army troops protecting the equipment!"
"I have a hunch that this Eighth Route Army coming from Datong is probably the garrison we have been waiting for for a long time!"
"Although I don't understand when they went to Datong, why they were able to seize so much equipment and increase their troop strength! But this premonition is so strong that I have to doubt it!"
"If they are really the remnants of the garrison we are looking for and there has been no trace for so long, nothing can be said this time to let them slip away again!"
"Judging from the battle situation last night, the opponent's strength is less than 500 men!"
"We dispatched a total of four reinforced squadrons, and the aviation force provided air support. With more than twice the strength and firepower advantage, it will definitely not be a problem to capture them!"
"In addition, in addition to the attacking troops, we must bravely search for them, and the troops staying behind at the strongholds must also strengthen their vigilance!"
"If they are really the remnants of the garrison, the remaining garrison troops in Lingqiu will definitely not remain indifferent and watch us wipe out their breakout troops. They will definitely send reinforcements to rescue them!"
"The Dongliang stronghold is the only way for them to pass through. As long as they control this place, the two armies will have no chance to meet, and it will be impossible to reinforce each other!"
The adjutant replied with admiration: "Sir, you are wise!"
"Your plan is absolutely foolproof. I will go and give the order now!"
At the temporary headquarters of the garrison, Huang Sheng's face was also happy!
He rushed to Li Hao and shouted excitedly: "Captain, the little devil has been fooled!"
"A reinforced squadron was dispatched from the stronghold, and there was only one reinforced squadron left at the blockade. They all rushed towards the forest where the guard company was active!"
"There are two reinforcement squadrons and one search team of Japanese soldiers, with a total strength of nearly 500 people. The only thing I'm worried about now is whether the guard company can hold them back!"
"Not afraid!" Li Hao replied confidently!
"The Japanese have reinforcements, and so do we!"
"Now that the Japanese have locked the forest where the guard company is operating, the real hiding place of the convoy is safe!"
"Order the commando team to set off immediately to reinforce the guard company!"
"The cavalry company will also fight, but we must go after dark!"
"As soon as the Japs leave the woods, let me make a surprise attack and kill them!"
"Besides, the second battalion should be arriving soon!"
"As soon as they arrive, our problem of insufficient troops will be solved!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the familiar voice of Second Battalion Commander Zhang Yun came in!
"Captain, we are here, we are not too late!"
"You're here just in time!" The smile on Li Hao's face became even thicker, and he stared at Zhang Yun who walked in and asked!
"How many people can you bring to join the battle immediately?"
Zhang Yun answered confidently: "Two companies plus the troops directly under the battalion headquarters, a total of more than 400 people, with the fourth company behind, it will take three hours to arrive!"
"Although everyone has been driving for more than ten hours on the mountain road and is very tired! But there is still no problem if you hold on and fight!"
"No need to hold on!" Li Hao shook his head and ordered!
"We are not in a hurry, we have plenty of time to fight the little Japs! The troops will rest in place for an hour and then set off to reinforce the guard company!"
"There are more than five hundred little devils there. I ask you to command the second battalion, the guard company, and the cavalry company, and kill them all in one night!"
"After the fourth company arrives, I will personally command it. I have other tasks!"
There is no need for Li Hao to be very careful in the battle inside the mountain!
Whether it's mountain warfare or guerrilla warfare, that's what the garrison is good at!
Even if you are no match for the Japanese, there is no problem in returning your whole body!
When it was getting dark, more than a hundred people from the Fourth Company finally arrived on the battlefield!
Li Hao also began to issue orders: "Order the convoy to set off immediately and rush to the Dongliang stronghold! As long as we take the stronghold, the convoy must pass the blockade as soon as possible, return to the base and then enter the mountains!"
The smile on Huang Sheng's face disappeared, and he frowned and reminded: "Captain, plus the fourth company, we only have two companies on hand, and we don't have heavy weapons!"
"The Japanese have nearly an infantry squadron in the stronghold, as well as mountain artillery, infantry artillery, mortars, and hundreds of puppet troops!"
"The troops and firepower are several times greater than ours. I can't think of any way for us to quickly seize the stronghold and break through the Japanese blockade!"
Li Hao did not deny: "It is true that we do not have heavy weapons, but we do have explosives!"
Huang Sheng's frown deepened, and he asked emotionally: "Captain, do you mean to send a suicide squad to blow up with explosives?"
"You absolutely cannot do this: the Japanese have artillery and heavy machine guns. No matter how many death squads we send out, we will never be able to break through the enemy's interception and rush to drop explosives in front of them!"
The confident expression on Li Hao's face did not change at all, calm and calm!
Looking at Huang Sheng, he comforted: "Don't worry, in my eyes, Li Hao, the lives of the soldiers are more important than anything else! I will never make fun of the lives of the soldiers!"
"You will know exactly how to do it when the time comes, and I guarantee it will surprise you!"
The Dongliang stronghold is close to the northeast of the garrison base, and the independent battalion is also ready to attack!
Several company commanders all gathered around Zhao Wen, their eyes shining!
Everyone knows that the regiment leader is in the other direction of the stronghold, and that tonight's battle is under the command of the regiment leader!
In their eyes, the regiment leader is the anchor that enables the garrison to win battles again and again!
Now that the regiment leader is back, he will definitely be able to command everyone to fight out the little devils in the base area, rebuild the base area, and restore the strength of the garrison!
So everyone is looking forward to the next battle!
"Comrades, this is the order the regiment leader just gave us!"
"We will capture the Dongliang stronghold tonight and the main force of the cover group will return to the base!"
"Now I order: At eight o'clock in the evening, the three companies of the Independent Battalion will take turns to attack the Dongliang stronghold, attracting all the Japanese attention to our side, and giving the regiment commander an opportunity to raid the stronghold!"
"I won't emphasize the importance of this battle. After the battle starts, no one can hide it from me. They take out all the weapons at the bottom of the box and show that we will break through at all costs tonight.
Are you clear about the posture of the stronghold?"
