Chapter 417: Entering the Sealed Hill

Sure enough, it was accompanied by Tian Junliu's order to convey.

At this time, the various units of the Imperial Association Army, which had already launched a peripheral encirclement of the Hengshan area, suddenly launched a fierce attack on the towns controlled by Li Yunlong's troops such as Hunyuan, Pingxingguan, Laiyuan, and Weixian.

It's just that the various units of the Imperial Association Army that seem to be attacking fiercely are attacking fiercely, but they can't do anything during the attack, and there are actually not many Imperial Cooperative Army killed.

Because, the attacking Imperial Association army seemed to be violent, but once it encountered the stubborn counterattack of Li Yunlong's defenders, they immediately retreated in a panic.

Soon, the remaining 180,000 horses of the Imperial Alliance Army stormed the Hengshan area and retreated in less than an hour.

In particular, according to Tian Junliu's key attack on Hunyuan, it was also repulsed, and the Imperial Association army attacking in that direction was killed by the defenders at least more than 3,000 people.

When it was transmitted to the headquarters of the Devil Front Army in Beiping, Tian Junliu, who learned of the battle situation, suddenly couldn't help but vomit blood!

"Eight Grid Tooth Road, the Imperial Association Army is really not even cannon fodder! Eating the food of the empire, it's just a bunch of garbage! Tian Junliu really couldn't help but complain, asking these Imperial Allied troops to besiege Li Yunlong's base and block the other party's supply line is simply extravagant!

Watanabe Shintaro on the side was also very helpless, and said: "Your Excellency, the total number of imperial troops attacking Hunyuan City is 20,000, but the siege losses are more than 3,000 people. Attacks from other directions, all in one, also lost a total of five thousand! That's not going to work! ”。

"Of course not, the Imperial Association is too rubbish! Eight grid tooth road! ”

Tian Junliu scolded and said, "But I can't beat Li Yunlong's intention to send troops!" This can't be done, Watanabe-kun, you must send someone to go deep into the core area of Li Yunlong's base area to find out the other party's movements at this moment. Otherwise, the next thing will be more troublesome. ”。

Shintaro Watanabe said, "Yes, Your Excellency the General!" I personally deployed a reconnaissance force to go deep into the Hengshan area! ”。

It's just that whether he can successfully sneak in, Shintaro Watanabe is a little uncertain at this time.

After all, at this time, the Hengshan area has been run by Li Yunlong, and it is too difficult to sneak in and investigate.

But seeing Tian Junliu's angry face, Shintaro Watanabe also has no choice, so let's bite the bullet!

Just when Tian Junliu could no longer contact Luo Zimo, the inner line, he had to continue to deploy reconnaissance troops to infiltrate the Hengshan area.

At this time, before the Imperial Association Army launched an offensive, Li Yunlong had already commanded 15,000 men and horses, with war horses as support, and after moving south along the Guanshui River, he walked through the Pingxing Pass.

Then, the army followed the secret road in the mountains, all the way south, after passing the Qinxi Mountain, along the inner Great Wall where Ji Province and Jin Province meet, that is, the Taihang Mountain Range, southward!

Rushing all the way south, Li Yunlong and others took advantage of the favorable situation of ambushing the prince of the devil and mobile operations to cross this route, and marched all the way south.

In addition, they are all cavalry mode battles, and 15,000 cavalry are running like crazy and extremely fast.

One night, he quickly crossed the Zhengtai Railway and went south from the railway between Niangziguan and Jingcheng.

And the devil didn't know at all, after all, the devil didn't expect that Li Yunlong and others would suddenly send troops south, and directly rush into the south and attack the Central Plains.

By the time Li Yunlong led the army to the south, galloping all the way, the speed was extremely fast, and at about three o'clock in the morning of the next day, it had already moved to a place less than five miles east of the Huangze Pass.

At this time, part of the Japanese army outflanked and part of the strength of the Zhongtiaoshan Nationalist Army advanced westward from the northern Henan area, attacking and outflanking the defenders of the Zhongtiaoshan Nationalist Army from the east.

And the Pinghan Railway goes all the way south, which is also the supply line of this devil.

At this time, the 15,000 men and horses commanded by Li Yunlong and others, who had already moved to the east of Huangze Pass, took advantage of the night to continue southward directly, bypassing Wu'an and continuing southward, directly killing Liuhegou and Fengle Town and continuing southward, and continuing to run south through the Qi River.

Soon, at about four o'clock in the morning, everyone entered the Fengqiu area north of the Yellow River!

In the deep mountains and dense forests on the side of the north road of Fengqiu City, the 15,000 cavalry who had trapped the horse's mouth were resting, less than five miles away from Fengqiu City.

Li Yunlong immediately sent scouts to investigate, after all, although Fengqiu was already close to the Yellow River, but to cross the river, it was necessary to take Fengqiu and Chen Qiao south of Fengqiu!

Li Yunlong summoned Zhang Dabiao, Shen Qun, Ma Wenhai, Wang Chengzhu of the artillery regiment and several others to spread out the map in the dense forest on the spot and start a battle discussion.

"Da !!"

The crisp sound of horses' hooves came from the south, and Li Yunlong secretly waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.

Sure enough, several horses ran from the road into the dense forest.

Soon, in the sight of Li Yunlong and others, it was the scouts who withdrew.

Li Yunlong waved his hand and asked a few soldiers to step forward and hold a kettle to give the soldiers who came back from the reconnaissance a drink of water.

After resting and breathing, the reconnaissance soldiers had stabilized, and one of the reconnaissance team leaders quickly reported to Li Yunlong and others the situation of the enemy army in Fengqiu.

"Report to the division commander, according to the investigation, the four gates of the sealed mound are closed. The city has been heavily defended, but we carefully reconnoiter the direction, and the devils in Fengqiu are probably less than two squadrons of troops, about five hundred! There are also Imperial Cooperative Army, probably five or six hundred! ”。

Li Yunlong nodded, and then said: "Then the enemy army of Fengqiu is composed of more than a thousand puppet troops and devils. It depends on the situation, is it a third-line garrison? ”。

"Yes, Commander! The firepower at the head of the city was not strong, and there were not many machine guns. It is estimated that most of them have been mobilized to the direction of Nakajo Mountain in the direction of the west! The scout captain spoke up.

Li Yunlong and the others bowed their heads, in this way, it shouldn't be much difficult to take down Fengqiu!

After thinking about it, Li Yunlong pointed to the map, and under the light of the flashlight, he said in a condensed voice: "If you want to cross the Yellow River and force the Kaifeng area, the best place to cross the river is nothing more than the Chenqiao area." And the sealed mound north of Chen Bridge is a place that must be passed, which is a roadblock! Must be taken! ”。

"Division Commander, give the order!"

Zhang Dabiao and others are gearing up to fight!

"Don't worry, whether you have entered the area of Chenqiao to investigate. Are there ships in the port there? Li Yunlong pressed the big guy's heart to ask for battle, and continued to ask the reconnaissance captain.

I saw the reconnaissance captain report: "Report to the division commander, according to the order, after we reconnoiter the situation of the enemy forces in Fengqiu, we will continue to go south, sneaking all the way to the area of Chenqiao to conduct reconnaissance." There are a large number of wooden ships in Chenqiao Port, and some are locomotive ships, and the number of ships is about 500. The enemy army guarding the port was 300 Japanese troops, and there was no Imperial Army, so it is estimated that the devil did not believe in the Imperial Army. ”。

It seems that the devil also attaches great importance to the crossing of the river in the area of Chenqiao. This is the closest connection channel to Kaifeng on the other side, but the devil didn't expect that we would suddenly kill it! Hum! Li Yunlong sneered.

Subsequently, Li Yunlong formulated an attack task and said: "The sealing mound must be taken, if we can't take the sealing mound, we can't enter the area around Chenqiao." But Fengqiu must be taken down quietly, and it will not be able to attract the attention of the devils in the area of Chen Qiao. Otherwise, the devils guarding Chen Qiao will inevitably burn the ship immediately! ”。
