Chapter 164: Blocking and Luring the Enemy
Li Yunlong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Lao Shen's worries are also right, but the current situation is already in our favor." The 5th Brigade of the Devil went deep alone, and did not wait for the other Japanese army under the command of Matsui Ishine to meet and then pursue it, this is already creating a fighter for us! ”。
"Commander, how are we going to fight?" Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, immediately asked.
Li Yunlong pointed to the map and said, "We have now arrived at the Xing'anling Mountain Range, which is near the main peak of Baicha Mountain. The forests are dense and the area is vast, which is suitable for guerrilla warfare. However, if you want to eat the headquarters of the 5th Brigade of the 3rd Division, which is alone in the depths, and solve the battle in a short time, you still need to fight an ambush. For example, it is like the ambush battle in the nameless basin of Daqingshan against the 102nd Infantry Wing of the 51st Brigade under the 26th Division of the Japanese Army! After all, there are more than 10,000 devils in the 5th Brigade, and their strength is not weak. ”。
When Zhang Dabiao and the others heard this, they looked along the map and began to ponder one by one.
Soon, Ma Wenhai, the commander of the third battalion, suggested: "Regiment commander, near the main peak of Baicha Mountain, according to the marks on the map, only this small village in Baicha Mountain has suitable terrain suitable for ambushing the devil's pursuers. ”。
"Weijiatun?" Zhang Dabiao, Shen Qun and others saw Ma Wenhai pointing to a place on the map and exclaimed.
Ma Wenhai nodded and said, "Yes, head of the regiment, this small village of Weijiatun is located less than three miles north of the main peak of Baicha Mountain. The village is surrounded by mountains and dense forests. The terrain of Weijiatun is a triangle, the village is the most prominent entrance, and the other two directions are closed. As long as we can lure the 5th Brigade to this place, and send troops to block the entrance at that time, then the devils in Weijiatun will become a turtle in an urn. ”。
Li Yunlong looked at it, but he bowed his head, which was actually good with his guess.
Weijiatun is indeed the burial place he prepared for the devil brigade of Ichiro Katayama, and the terrain here is really suitable, and the terrain of the nameless basin of Daqingshan is actually similar.
It's just that the topography of the nameless basin of Daqingshan has entrances and exits, while the terrain of Weijiatun in Baicha Mountain is roughly triangular, and there is only one intersection into the village.
Moreover, judging from the map, the width of the village entrance should not be large, and the entrance can be blocked by easily sending troops, which is very beneficial for ambushing and encircling the 5th Brigade.
Thinking of this, Li Yunlong immediately waved his hand and said to Sun Desheng, the commander of the cavalry battalion of the regimental headquarters who participated in the formulation of the battle plan: "Sun Desheng, you immediately take the cavalry battalion and rush to Weijiatun for me to conduct reconnaissance before the large army." If there are ordinary people in Weijiatun, try to organize the people of the village to move to the depths of the surrounding mountains for temporary shelter. Show our banner, and it is estimated that the common people will generally agree. By the way, from the capture of Baochang and other cities, part of the assets were taken out to compensate the people. After all, once the ambush battle unfolds in Weijiatun, it is estimated that Weijiatun will be beaten into ruins nine times out of ten after the war! We can't afford to let the people suffer. ”。
"Understood, regimental commander, promise to complete the mission!" Sun Desheng stood up and saluted heavily, and then left quickly, commanding the cavalry battalion to rush to Weijiatun one step ahead of the large army, and organize the evacuation of the people in the tunzhong.
And Li Yunlong and the others continued to discuss the details of the next operation, you must know that the 5th Brigade under the command of Ichiro Katayama is the core combat brigade of the 3rd Division, and there are more than 10,000 devils, and it will take half an hour of fierce fighting to be able to eat them.
Or, they may not be able to eat it all, but Li Yunlong and others are determined to eat most of the troops of the 5th Brigade no matter what.
After all, now is the right time!
"The most critical thing in the ambush battle of Weijiatun north of Baicha Mountain is how to lure the main force of the devils of the 5th Brigade into Tunzi. The big guys are talking about it, what should I do? ”
Li Yunlong pointed to the map and asked everyone.
The commander of the 5th Brigade, Riichiro Katayama, is a cunning old devil, and this old devil is not a fool, and it is impossible that he will not realize the plans of the new regiment when the time comes.
What's more, the little devil should have a little understanding of the situation in various parts of Rehe, and once Ichiro Katayama finds out that something is wrong, things will be in extreme danger.
Zhang Dabiao said: "Regiment commander, it is best to build a few blocking positions between the north of the main peak of Baicha Mountain and Weijiatun, and conduct several large-scale positional battles with the devils of the 5th Brigade, and fight with the 5th Brigade with great momentum. In this way, we should be able to induce the 5th Brigade to chase into Weijiatun while fighting. ”。
"You kid has a flexible brain! That's it! In this way, according to the degree of difficulty, Da Biao, you take the first battalion to take the lead, the second battalion in the middle of the second blocking position, and the third blocking position of the third battalion. But it is necessary to have the appearance of blocking and retreating, and it is not possible for Ichiro Katayama to find out that something is wrong! As long as the 5th Brigade is lured to Weijiatun, we will be able to encircle and annihilate at least most of the main force of the 5th Brigade, and there will be no problem. ”
Li Yunlong clapped his hands and smiled, there is only this way at present. However, it is also the most suitable way!
"Yes, Commander! Guaranteed mission completion! Zhang Dabiao, Shen Qun and others stood up and saluted, and everyone's fighting spirit was full.
As the plan was drawn up, Li Yunlong ordered all troops to seize the time to rest and recuperate, and ten minutes later, Li Yunlong commanded all units to move to the area north of the main peak of Baicha Mountain to Weijiatun.
After arriving at the blocking position, Li Yunlong immediately commanded all units to start the construction of the blocking position and set up a blocking artillery position.
After all, if you want to fight wits and courage with the lone 5th Brigade, you must at least beat Ichiro Katayama first, so that this old devil will be furious. Otherwise, this old devil is cunning and cunning, and he won't be lured to Weijiatun so easily!
At the same time when Li Yunlong and others were seizing the time to establish a blocking position between the north of Baicha Mountain and Weijiatun, more than 10,000 little devils from the 5th Brigade of the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army, who were pursuing from the east of Duolun City, pursued non-stop towards Baicha Mountain under the command of Major General Riichiro Katayama, the brigade commander.
Since Li Yunlong and others had already led their troops into the densely forested Baicha Mountain to hide and recuperate, the devil's group that flew one step ahead of the 5th Brigade to the area above Baicha Mountain did not find any signs of the activities of a large group of new regiments on the ground.
Helplessly, the group of little devils could only continue to cruise at high altitude, and the reconnaissance planes in the group carried out reconnaissance at low altitude according to the requirements of Riichiro Katayama. From time to time, he telegraphed to Richiro Katayama about the investigation situation.
"Brigade commander, Your Excellency the General has called and ordered us to pursue Li Yunlong's headquarters as much as possible. He's already passed through the city of Dolun and is hurrying here! "In the pursuit of the 5th Brigade, Kenjiro Saito, chief of staff of the Devil Brigade, took a telegram that had just been released and reported to Riichiro Katayama urgently!
