Chapter 368: Aerial Threat

The battlefield at almost seven o'clock in the morning is a breeze!

It wasn't dawn yet, and it was still an hour before it was completely dawn. However, less than a few miles between the town of Maojiasoo and the north bank of the Kouquan River, countless Japanese soldiers were killed along the way.

Seven or eight thousand soldiers of the Independent Brigade are already cleaning up the battlefield. One after another, Li Yunlong also specially contacted thousands of guerrilla units in the mountainous areas on both sides of the railway line to join the operation of cleaning up the battlefield, believing that it should be possible to clean up the battlefield before dawn.

"Brigade commander, this is Major General Fujii Kamiya, commander of the 33rd Brigade of the 77th Division of the Japanese Army, this is the chief of staff Yuichiro Yamazaki who was killed by the soldiers with submachine guns and beaten into a sieve. In addition, the commander of the 21st Infantry Wing of the 77th Devil Brigade Shosaburo Tado and other officers at all levels were all killed by the soldiers of our independent brigade! According to preliminary statistics, except for a few devil soldiers who escaped at night, all the rest were annihilated by us. ”

The staff officer of the brigade headquarters, who was responsible for summing up the results of the battle, said to Li Yunlong, who was inspecting the battlefield, with a happy report.

In fact, everyone didn't expect that they would be able to completely annihilate the 77th Brigade of the Devils. There are more than 10,000 devils in this, and the independent brigade has now been able to completely and independently solve a devil brigade, which is not a problem, and it is very easy and comfortable.

"Good !!"

Li Yunlong nodded, and under the light of the torches, he had clearly seen the corpses of the officers at all levels of the 77th Brigade of the Devil who were killed, and then continued: "Order the brothers, hurry up and clean up the battlefield." By the way, just by the river on the north bank of the Kouquan River, build another surprise for me, and give the little devil a great deterrent! It doesn't take too much, just use hundreds of devil corpses! ”。

"Understood, Brigadier Commander!"

The statistical staff officer nodded, immediately stood up and saluted, and then turned to leave.

And just when the Independent Brigade surrounded and annihilated the remnants of the 77th Brigade and was seizing the time to clean up the battlefield between Maojiasoo Town and the north bank of the Kouquan River.

At this time, in Taiyuan City, in the command room of the First Army of the Devils, he received a farewell emergency message from Fujii Kamiya at the last moment, and after reading it, Miyano Taro sat on the stool and was silent for a long time.

"General!" The staff officer on duty, Jino Okada, couldn't help but whisper, his expression sad.

An elite brigade went north with great difficulty, originally to reinforce the Datong defenders. Unexpectedly, the speed of the independent brigade's attack was too fast, and after the 110th Brigade of the 31st Division of the Yangyuan County began to attack last night, the independent brigade went on a rampage all the way, maneuvering along and near the Tongpu Road in northern Shanxi.

With this hand, the Japanese army was exhausted. Unexpectedly, until now, the independent brigade seized the advantageous fighter opportunity and ate more than 10,000 devil elites under the 77th Brigade of the 33rd Division, which went deep into the north.

A series of high-speed combat ambushes of this independent brigade dazzled Okada Jino! Even Okada Jino had to admit that Li Yunlong, the commander of the Independent Brigade, had greatly increased his strength, and it would be very difficult to deal with the Independent Brigade again.

And Miyano Taro didn't know that Okada Jino sighed in his heart at this time, but he smiled bitterly and said in a condensed voice: "More than 10,000 imperial troops of the 77th Brigade were ambushed and killed by the Independent Brigade, we didn't expect that Li Yunlong would have such courage. But now, it's useless to say anything! ”。

"What should we do, General? Now the independent brigade is in the area from Maojiasoo Town to the north bank of the Kouquan River. I'm afraid that our forces in the vicinity will not be able to continue to advance the independent brigade for a short time! Okada Jino couldn't help but say, now think about it, what should I do next?

When Taro Miyano heard this, his eyes suddenly stared at the watch he was carrying on his right wrist, and the time had come to about ten o'clock in the morning.

"In less than an hour, it will be dawn! Contact the flight commander of the 82nd Flying Brigade of the Aviation Corps, the 83rd Flying Regiment. Let them do a good job and as soon as it is dawn, they will go out to find the independent brigade for bombing! Now is the only time to do these things! As for Datong, which was conquered by the Independent Brigade, after dawn, it was impossible for the Independent Brigade to be stationed in Datong City! We don't have to send troops, sooner or later we will take it back! Taro Miyano still waved his hand confidently and said in a condensed voice.

If the Independent Brigade were to hold all of them in Datong City, once dawn and their fighters bombed it, they would be able to blow up Datong City.

And the independent brigade itself is just a lone army, maneuvering and fighting in all directions. Once they are trapped in a city, although Datong is an important town in northern Shanxi, once the independent brigade wants to stick to Datong for a long time, it is bound to be able to concentrate its forces into the city.

But in this way, most of Li Yunlong's independent brigade will be trapped in Datong. And the current superior air power of the Japanese army is enough to crush the independent brigade.

Therefore, if it is not a fool, Miyano Taro knows that once it is dawn, Datong City will be an empty city, and it is impossible for the Independent Brigade to stay and garrison in Datong at all. After all, Taro Miyano also knows that Li Yunlong is not a Shabi!

"Hay, General! I immediately contacted the flight commander of the 82nd, 83rd of the Air Forces! Okada Jino's eyes lit up, but he didn't expect it.

As for where the independent brigade will attack next, as long as it goes south, it will be strictly defended and blocked by the devil garrisons in the cities south of the Kouquan River. Other directions are also possible directions for the attack of the Independent Brigade, which is no longer possible for Taro Miyano and Jino Okada, and it is no longer possible to judge the target of the next attack of the Independent Brigade.

After all, in the northern area of Jin, there are many targets that the Independent Brigade can attack. Although, the garrison of many town devils will not be too big. However, once the independent brigade gives up its cavalry superiority and attacks the towns that the devils have firmly defended, sooner or later it will consume part of its forces on the way to attack the towns.

It's just that Li Yunlong is very cunning, and Miyano Taro thought about it and felt that it was impossible for him to be so shabi!

And Miyano Taro then sent the news of the annihilation of the main force of the 77th Brigade to Okabe Naosaburo, who commanded more than 100,000 Japanese troops to fight on the front line of Nakajo Mountain.

The command of the Japanese army on the front line of Nakajo Mountain!

"A bunch of rubbish! Eight grid tooth road! After reading the telegram forwarded by Taiyuan handed over by Jitaro Kawaguchi, Naosaburo Okabe roared.

An elite brigade's arduous transfer to the north was actually eaten by the independent brigade after the battle against Datong.

In the midst of his anger, Naosaburo Okabe couldn't help but feel cold all over his body, was the strong combat effectiveness of the Independent Brigade already terrifying? An elite brigade of more than 10,000 Japanese troops was solved in such a short period of time?

"Your Excellency, Commander, it is now less than an hour before dawn. If Li Yunlong wasn't very stupid, they would probably abandon the captured Datong. After all, after dawn, the 82nd and 83rd Flying Squadrons of our Imperial Air Force had more than 30 fighters going north, and under the overwhelming bombardment, they could not hold Datong at all. In the face of our air threat, the Independent Brigade can only abandon Datong, Your Excellency, Commander, sooner or later Datong will return to the hands of our imperial army! Jitaro Kawaguchi said in a low voice.
