Wang Yan said again: "Head Chu, in fact, this big drama has been sung so far, and it is almost there. ”

"You're saying that our 358th regiment's garrison should have fought back, right?" Chu Yunfei said.

"That's it." Wang Yan said, "Our independent regiment has already paid heavy casualties outside Heyuan City, with more than 10,000 attrition, if your 358th regiment doesn't fight back, the devil should be suspicious." ”

"That's right." Chu Yunfei said, "Then let's do it this evening." ”

"Good evening." Wang Yan said with a smile, "Just leave a night of marching time for the devil." ”

Chu Yunfei and Li Yunlong glanced at each other, and then the two of them laughed at the same time, communicating with people who were thinking on the same channel, which made people feel so happy.

……

Ping'an County, the headquarters of the 69th Division of the Japanese Army.

Ryokazu Yamamoto rushed into the war room and reported to Inoue Sadawei: "Division commander, aviation scouts report that the defending troops of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army have counterattacked!" ”

"Oh, really?" When Inoue Zhenwei heard this, his spirits suddenly perked up, and he said, "Jin Suijun finally fought back?" ”

"Yes, finally fought back." Ryoichi Yamamoto nodded heavily, "Although the time to counterattack is later than expected, they have fought back after all!" ”

Speaking of this, Ryoichi Yamamoto threw another appreciative glance at Higashifuji.

The reaction of the Eighth Route Army and the Jin Sui Army was almost exactly the same as that of Higashi Fujixiong.

Higashifujio just smiled reservedly, as if he had just done something insignificant.

"Yo Si." Inoue Sadawei nodded happily, and said, "What is the reaction of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment now?" ”

Ryo Yamamoto: "The Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army has been forced to shrink its forces and give up the siege of the north gate and the south gate, leaving only the west gate and the east gate have not been withdrawn. ”

"But in my estimation, the offensive against the East Gate and the West Gate will not last long."

"Because the blocking troops of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army are about to be unable to withstand it, the reinforcements of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army will soon be killed under Heyuan City to join the defending troops."

Inoue Zhenwei nodded and said: "It seems that although the independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army has a lot of troops, it is still inferior to the 358th regiment of the Jinsui Army in terms of combat effectiveness." ”

"Yes." Ryoichi Yamamoto thought so.

"Although the number of troops of the Eighth Route Army is sufficient, there are more than 15,000 people."

"But most of these fighters are new recruits who have just joined the army, and their technical and tactical literacy is very low."

"The 358th Regiment of the Anti-Southern Jin Sui Army not only has well-trained officers and soldiers, but is equipped with strong firepower and equipment, and has given a large number of casualties to the independent regiment in actual combat."

"Judging from the battle situation provided by Okamoto-kun, the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army has far surpassed any wing-level combat unit of the Imperial Army in terms of artillery firepower and machine gun firepower."

"Especially their individual soldiers, equipped with a lot of automatic firepower, which is incomparable to the imperial army."

Inoue Sadawei nodded and said: "So we must also pay enough attention, this battle is enough to show that the lethality of American weapons and equipment should not be underestimated." ”

"It goes without saying." Higashifushi suddenly said, "If the U.S. weapons and equipment were not powerful, the Imperial Army would not be so passive in the Pacific Theater." ”

"So." Inoue Zhenwei said in a deep voice, "In this sortie, the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army will be the priority target of the Imperial Army, and as for the remnants of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, it can be postponed." ”

Yamamoto Liang said for a moment: "The division commander Mingjian. ”

Inoue Sadawei glanced up at the sky outside the window, and said: "The independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army is no longer sustainable, and next, it is the turn of the imperial army to perform." ”

"Order, the 59th Infantry Brigade, the 69th Cavalry Wing, the 69th Mountain Artillery Wing, and the 69th Independent Combat Vehicle Squadron immediately advance in the direction of Heyuan County!"

"The 69th Cavalry Wing will cut off the marching route."

"Be sure to keep this operation sudden and hidden!"

"Hello!" Ryoichi Yamamoto and Higashifuji Yu paused at the same time.

……

There is a distance of about 50 kilometers between Heyuan County and Ping'an County.

There is a road between the two county seats, and this road is basically in the river valley plain, and there is almost no suitable terrain for ambush in between.

Because of this, the search team of the 69th Cavalry Wing of the Japanese Army advanced extremely fast.

The task of the 69th Cavalry Wing of the Japanese Army was to block off the highways.

To put it bluntly, in fact, it was to clear the highway and ensure the concealment of the march of the main force of the Japanese army.

The 69th Cavalry Wing originally had four cavalry squadrons, but two of the cavalry squadrons were used by the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army to collect wool in the previous half a year, so there were only two cavalry squadrons left, but it was these two remaining squadrons that had a big problem not long ago.

When the Matsushima squadron cooperated with the Sato squadron transferred from the Mongolian army to carry out the mission, it was again woolened by the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army.

So now, the 69th Cavalry Wing actually has only one cavalry squadron left, plus the miscellaneous personnel of the wing headquarters, all the personnel combined, less than 200 cavalry.

The wing commander of the 69th Cavalry Wing is called Hojo Kazukiyo, this little devil is a typical Japanese cavalry officer, proud, but strict and old-fashioned.

Hojo Kazukiyo strictly carried out Inoue's orders.

The little devil sent a cavalry squad to the left and right sides of the road.

And the distance of the forward is two kilometers, that is to say, if there is any abnormality within two kilometers, it will not be able to escape the sight of the devil cavalry.

……

It's just that Li Yunlong has thought of this a long time ago.

So the ambush was placed a full three kilometers away.

Looking at the devil cavalry driving not far ahead, Wei Dayong whispered: "It's so dangerous, if we put the ambush position at a distance of 100 meters from the kilometer, it will be exposed." ”

Duan Peng also rarely agreed: "The little devil is really cunning enough. ”

Wang Yan said: "Although the devil's tactics are rigid, it is true to be cautious. ”

As he spoke, the devil cavalry had already walked away, and Li Yunlong got up and said, "Lao Wang, pass on my order, each battalion and each company should go forward two kilometers and set up an ambush one hundred meters away from the road!" ”

Wei Dayong asked as he got up, "Regiment Leader, what if the devil kills a horse pistol?" ”

"You think the devil is your wolf tooth squad, return the carbine." Li Yunlong said, "As long as the devils pass, they will never go back, and behind them will be their big army." ”

Li Yunlong's order was quickly conveyed, and even the troops on the other side of the road received his order.

Immediately afterwards, the battalions and companies of the independent regiment entered the positions one by one, and at night, they saw that the troops involved in the ambush had more than 50 infantry companies.
