Chapter 961: Discovering the Devil's Movements
The distance of fifty miles is not far away, but it is not close.
When Li Yunlong was dealing with the corpse of the devil squad leader, he sent out several reconnaissance teams.
Li Yunlong himself did not rush forward.
When he arrived in the center of the Lingnan region, there was a possibility of confronting the devil's army at any time, and at this time, Li Yunlong was thinking more about how to organize his troops and prepare for battle.
The map placed in front of Li Yunlong was brought here before he came, and it marked the general topography of the entire Lingnan area, but because of the reconnaissance in the southern half of the area, the map of the southern area of Lingnan was gradually refined.
Two distinct routes, clearly marked on the map.
In addition to the route where Li Yunlong is located, there is also the route on the east side, although it seems more obscure, but it is certain that this route is also passable for vehicles.
That is to say, there are two alternatives for the devil to choose the route to the south, and the distance between the two routes is almost more than 20 miles, which can not only take care of each other, but also disperse the troops on his side.
Even Li Yunlong admired it very much, this kind of arrangement of the little devil, I have to say, is indeed a very practical marching plan.
"Commander, commander, I have discovered the movements of the devil!"
Li Yunlong was replenishing the information on the map when a member of the team rushed over.
"What are you yelling about?"
Li Yunlong raised his head and glared, "Don't be so panicked, the devils will come when they come, just beat them!" ”
The scout gasped and breathed a sigh of relief before saying, "Commander, I and the two brothers have discovered a large army of devils. ”
"So fast?"
Li Yunlong didn't think that this news was unexpected, but to be able to bring back the news so quickly, obviously, the devil's team is not far from here.
"How far is it from here?"
"About thirty miles, the vanguard of the other side is an artillery team, the speed is very fast, it is expected to arrive here at about two o'clock in the afternoon!"
Li Yunlong looked up at the sky, and it was almost eleven o'clock.
"So, in three hours, the little devil's artillery unit will be here?"
"Yes, if the devil's team doesn't stop, it will be there in three hours!"
"Okay, let the brothers prepare for battle, hurry up and put the team together and push five miles to the north, Lao Tzu seems to see that there is a hillside in the north, right!"
"Yes, Captain!"
"Just use it as a front-line position to block the devil's artillery, and push all the heavy weapons captured from the devil's hands!"
"Yes!"
As Li Yunlong's order was conveyed, all the soldiers quickly moved into action.
Not only Li Yunlong, but Wei Dayong, who was sent out to the front to inquire about the news, also rushed back quickly.
"Regiment commander, the devil's team has a lot of troops, in addition to an artillery brigade, there are several teams, I specially went around to the rear of the devil's artillery to see, followed by a large army, how can the overall scale be the strength of a division!"
"Huh?"
Hearing the news that Wei Dayong brought back, Li Yunlong also paid attention to it.
If it was just an artillery brigade, Li Yunlong didn't care too much, even if Li Yunlong didn't have many people under him, but if he faced the strength of a division, he needed to prepare well.
"Regiment commander, I think we can draw troops from the rear and come over to support!"
Hearing Wei Dayong's suggestion, Li Yunlong laughed out loud, "Monk, do you also have a time when you want to ask for help?" ”
"Commander, aren't I worried that our numbers are too small?"
Although Wei Dayong is a bit reckless in fighting, this does not mean that Wei Dayong is stupid.
He can fight against dozens of devil soldiers alone, but if the devil's strength is thousands, even if Wei Dayong is reckless, he knows that he can't fight hard with his temperament.
Because the situation of the devil troops has been basically understood, the team members have come back one after another.
Just when Li Yunlong was thinking about how to deal with it, Song Dong and Duan Peng actually rushed over with the team.
"Captain!"
"Why are you two here?"
Li Yunlong was surprised, the two of them should continue their search on the Eastern Front, and they came here at this time, although it was very timely, but this was not like the command style of Song Dong and Duan Peng.
Song Dong pointed behind Li Yunlong, "I rushed over when I saw the smoke here!" ”
Without waiting for Li Yunlong to ask, Song Dong said again, "When I first saw this smoke, I noticed that something was wrong, you rarely lit a fire so in broad daylight, and such an obvious target must be easily discovered by the devil's team, I feel that if the devil finds this product, this side will definitely become the main battlefield." ”
Listening to Song Dong's analysis, Li Yunlong nodded with satisfaction, "The analysis is good, but this inference alone won't let you come with Duan Peng, right?" ”
Song Dong laughed, "That's right, after I saw this situation, I immediately sent someone, ready to come over to find out what the situation is, the brother who sent out, didn't go out ten miles, and met the devil's team, and found that the devils on the eastern front were also marching towards this side." ”
Only then did Li Yunlong understand that the devils on the Eastern Front had actually come over.
"How many devils from the Eastern Front have come?"
Song Dong thought for a while, "What my brothers and I discovered, there are a total of two teams, a special squad, I'm afraid that now I'm afraid that I've arrived near here, I don't know where it's lurking, and there is also a machine gun squadron, I and Duan Peng rushed over, so we didn't exchange fire with each other." ”
"Well, it's right that there is no direct firefight, the pressure here is indeed a bit big, but since you are here, let's kill this devil division first!"
"Division?"
Not only Song Dong and Duan Peng, but also several key team members behind them were also shocked.
"So many people are here with the little devils?"
Li Yunlong laughed, "Of course, Lao Tzu said before that the big army of little devils will be able to meet soon, but I didn't expect these little devils to be quite willing, and they actually sent a division of troops to fight the outpost." ”
The devil's troops from the south of the Yangtze River must have more than one division, or even much more, and the appearance of this first division means that the follow-up teams of the devils will also follow up one after another.
However, what worries Li Yunlong the most is the speed of the battle.
Only by fighting a quick battle can we carry out a strategic strike as soon as possible after the devil's division and regiment units have been eliminated, so as to form a deterrent force for the follow-up devil's troops.
But now the troops brought here are still a little less.
After all, now Li Yunlong and the others are facing an integrated devil division and regiment troops, and if they want to defeat the main force of devils, they have to think of some other methods.
