Chapter 231: Blocking Position
Thirty miles north of Liao County, Li Yunlong led the soldiers of the Independent Regiment to successfully join the 772nd Regiment.
At this time, the soldiers of the 772nd Regiment were busy planting mines, making traps, etc., in order to be able to delay the footsteps of the devils who were going south to reinforce in the direction to the greatest extent, the soldiers of the 772nd Regiment laid a large number of mines and traps on the road to the south.
During this time, the Independent Regiment experienced a lot of battles, as did the 772 Regiment. It can be seen that there are less than 500 soldiers of the 772nd Regiment who came to block the reinforcements of the devils, and some of them are wounded. The independent regiment attacked Liao County of the devils, and the 772nd regiment was not idle, and Commander Cheng took the 772nd regiment to kill several strongholds of the devils.
If it weren't for the order of the division headquarters, Commander Cheng might continue to attack the devil's stronghold with the 772nd regiment, but there was no way, and the landlord's family had no surplus food. The ammunition of the 772nd Regiment is not much after frequent battles during this time, and it can be somewhat replenished to attack the stronghold of the devils.
After all, compared to the battles of the Eighth Route Army, the devils are equipped with more bullets, and each devil has at least 120 rounds of ammunition, and when there are frequent battles, the number of bullets carried is even more. In the eyes of Regiment Commander Cheng and Li Yunlong, the devil is a living ammunition transporter, and it is naturally impossible not to eat it.
"Cheng Blind, you first take the soldiers of the 772nd Regiment to set up mines and traps, the soldiers of our Independent Regiment have just attacked Liao County of the devil, and they need to rest and recuperate." Seeing Captain Cheng, Li Yunlong said directly.
Regiment Commander Cheng nodded, he could see the state of the soldiers of the Independent Regiment, with the situation of the soldiers of the Independent Regiment, if they were really directly involved in such things as planting mines and making traps, I am afraid it would be a little impossible. Even if the fighters were forcibly ordered to do so, the fighters of these separate regiments would not be too efficient.
What's more, Regiment Commander Cheng also knew how difficult it would be to fight the county seat of the devil, and from the number of soldiers brought by Li Yunlong, he knew that the Independent Regiment had also suffered a lot of casualties in order to take the county seat of Liao County.
"Leave this kind of thing to our 772nd regiment, and your independent regiment will rest first." Head Cheng said directly.
Li Yunlong took the soldiers of the Independent Regiment to rest, and with the 772nd Regiment here, he naturally did not have to worry about safety. Li Yunlong was still very relieved about the 772 regiment led by Cheng Blind, just a glance just now, he could see that Cheng Blind had done everything he could.
Laying mines, making traps, and building blocking positions, etc., Cheng Blind did a good job. It is also due to the fact that there are no bridges in this area, otherwise Cheng Blind will definitely blow up the bridge directly to block the reinforcements of the devils.
"Genzi, you take the artillery company to rest for a while, I'm afraid it won't be long before the devil's reinforcements arrive." Li Yunlong explained to Liu Gen.
Liu Gen nodded, he knew that the devil came from the direction of Heshun, Heshun was less than forty kilometers away from Liao County, and with the speed of the devil's march, there was not much time left for the Independent Regiment and the 772nd Regiment. It's just that the fighters of the separate regiment have just experienced the battle, and without a certain rest, it is easy for problems to arise.
"Regiment commander, I'll first observe the surrounding terrain and find a suitable artillery position before choosing to rest." Liu Gen said.
Li Yunlong looked at Liu Gen, and after careful observation, he could see that Liu Gen was not very tired.
"Okay, then you kid go, take the monk with you, and pay attention to safety." Li Yunlong explained.
Liu Gen shook his head, "Regiment leader, the monk should be a little tired with the soldiers charging, I just need to walk around here alone, with the soldiers of the 772nd Regiment here, I will definitely not encounter any danger." ”
Li Yunlong looked around, trying to find the figure of the monk, but in the end, after seeing the monk lying on the ground and falling asleep directly, he could only nod.
As the commander of the regiment, Li Yunlong could not lead the soldiers to charge, and Zhang Dabiao's injuries had not yet recovered, so he could only let the monks lead the soldiers to charge. I have to say that the monk is a natural fierce general, and every charge is at the forefront, and he is also the one who kills the most devils.
"Okay, then you kid pay attention, and come back directly if you are in danger." Li Yunlong nodded and said.
Liu Gen left Li Yunlong's figure, looking for a suitable place to be the position of the artillery company, the artillery company did not have a lot of shells, and in the next battle, the artillery company needed to play its due role with every shell, and there could be no waste.
A good enough artillery position can help the artillery company to better shell the enemy, and the other thing is to avoid being discovered by the devil's artillery. Constantly looking for a suitable artillery position, Liu Gen walked around the rear of the 772nd Regiment, and he could see that the soldiers of the 772nd Regiment were carefully preparing for the defensive position.
The choice to use positional warfare to block the devil's reinforcements is also due to the fact that there is no suitable terrain in this area to attack and harass the devils, and there are mountains on both sides of the road leading from Heshun to Liao County, but it is too far away from the road, and it is difficult to affect the devils if they conduct raid and harassment warfare.
Therefore, if you want to stop the reinforcements of the devils, you can only choose to fight a positional war with the devils!
Half an hour later, Liu Gen found a few suitable places as artillery positions, considering the problem of retreat, the few places he found were relatively hidden, and it was not easy to be discovered by the devils when retreating.
As for whether the Independent Regiment and the 772nd Regiment can directly kill the reinforcements of the Devil, Liu Gen did not hold out much hope, with the strength of the Independent Regiment and the 772nd Regiment, the total is less than 800 people, and the reinforcements that the Devil put down from the direction of Heshun is an infantry brigade, which is almost equal to the strength of the two regiments.
Coupled with the fact that the fighters had just experienced the battle, their energy was not very high, and the artillery company did not have enough shells left, it was undoubtedly impossible to kill the infantry brigade that the devils had come to reinforce. Liu Gen could also see that when the soldiers of the 772nd Regiment were digging trenches, they dug out several trenches, and the regiment commander Cheng didn't think that he could directly kill the infantry brigade reinforced by the devils.
There is no way, who let the independent regiment and the 772 regiment go through too many battles, so many battles, the combat effectiveness of the two regiments has decreased a lot. The troops are not enough, the equipment is not as good as the devil, how can it be the opponent of the devil when it comes to fighting?
Returning to the place where the soldiers of the Independent Regiment rested, Liu Gen could see that the soldiers were all asleep, and the battle of attacking Liao County tonight consumed too much physical strength of the soldiers. It's just that when he looked at the soldiers, Liu Gen found that there was no Li Yunlong here.
Noticing this, Liu Gen walked quickly around, where did Li Yunlong go? Why not rest here? Walking around quickly, Liu Gen soon found Li Yunlong's figure, but in the moonlight, Li Yunlong's figure looked a little lonely.
