Li Yunlong's brigade headquarters set off towards Shimen County and Niangzi Pass, and the Japanese puppet army in Shimen County and Niangzi Pass also got the news as soon as possible, and they all hurried to stop the direction.

The distance between Niangzi Pass and Guangqu County is about 50 kilometers, and Li Yunlong led the troops directly under the brigade headquarters, the elite regiment, the iron-blooded 6th regiment and other large troops to march, and it was probably not until the evening that they arrived at the garrison two kilometers away from Niangzi Pass.

When the large army arrived at Niangzi Pass, they began to set up camp, and did not plan to attack Niangzi Pass so quickly.

Li Yunlong temporarily set up a sortie headquarters.

Li Yunlong, Zhang Dabiao and others observed the situation at Niangziguan at the command headquarters.

After a while, a scout walked into the headquarters quickly, came to Li Yunlong, Zhang Dabiao and others and said: "Brigade commander, the terrain of Niangzi Pass is basically clear, this is a simple topographic map of Niangzi Pass that I draw!" ”

As a scout, the must-have drawing skills are a must-have.

Before this, Li Yunlong had already made full preparations for attacking Niangzi Pass, and sent scouts to Niangzi Pass to reconnoiter the terrain and landforms of Niangzi Pass.

"Okay, worthy of being my Li Yunlong's soldier, tell me about the situation!"

The scout hurriedly pointed to the simple map drawn and said, "This lady is close to the mountains and rivers, condescending, and has built two gates. ”

The east gate is generally the brick city gate, the forehead title "Zhili Niangzi Pass", there is a platform castle, the south gate is a towering dangerous building, the air is lofty, it is thick and solid, and the bluestone is built. On the city gate, the "Su Jiang Building" stands majestically, and the Great Wall on the southeast side of the city winds along the mountain, towering and straight. The west of the city is surrounded by the peach river, which is continuous all year round. Dangerous mountains, river valleys, and the Great Wall build a natural barrier between Shanxi and Hebei. ”

The south gate is a limestone wall, also known as the inner city gate, the lower is the brick coupon, the upper is the gatehouse, the double eaves are hung with the plaque of "the ninth pass in the world", and the upper part of the door hole is written with four big characters of "Gyeonggi Domain". The castle tower was built on the doorway. On the southeast side of the gate, there is only a 45-degree stone slope ancient road that can be passed before the gate! The terrain is very dangerous! ”

Li Yunlong looked at this Niangzi Pass and nodded slightly: This Niangzi Pass is magnificent, there is indeed a husband who is in charge, and there is no trend for ten thousand people.

Zhang Dabiao looked at the terrain of Niangzi Pass so dangerous, and said in confusion: "Brigade commander, why don't you transfer the artillery regiment over and directly bombard him with a!" ”

"The terrain of Niangziguan is too dangerous, and the artillery regiment is not easy to shoot at all!!" Li Yunlong said: "It can be seen that there is only a 45-degree steep ancient slope road about 3 meters wide that can lead to Niangzi Pass, so the artillery regiment and the large corps cannot be used!" ”

"What's going on?" Zhang Dabiao asked suspiciously.

"For Niangzi Pass, we can't attack by force, we can only outwit!" Li Yunlong said loudly: "Order all the soldiers to rest for a night tonight, and be ready to attack the city at any time!" ”

"Yes!"

Immediately afterwards, the main force of the entire Iron and Blood Brigade was resting well, except for the necessary guard posts, because tomorrow will attack Niangzi Pass, there will definitely be a fierce battle.

Niangzi Pass, here is the first natural barrier to protect Taiyuan, is an important checkpoint to defend Taiyuan, Shinozuka Yoshio has already expected Li Yunlong's next battle plan, so he has already sent heavy troops to garrison in Niangzi Pass.

The company commander of the 67th Wing of the Japanese Army, Koji Matsushita, who was responsible for guarding Niangzi Pass, was an old devil who had been fighting in China for more than five years, and his hands were stained with the blood of the Chinese people.

It is worth mentioning that Koji Matsushita was the main executioner in the Nanjing Massacre!

In order to be able to hold the Niangzi Pass, the Japanese puppet army in the Niangzi Pass now has reached more than 10,000 people, all of which are commanded by this Matsushita Koji.

In the command post of the Japanese army.

Several chiefs of staff and captains walked in quickly, and one of the chiefs of staff said to Koji Matsushita: "Your Excellency Commander, the Iron and Blood Brigade has already gathered thousands of troops outside the gate, and it looks like it is menacing!" ”

After hearing this, Koji Matsushita asked, "How is the deployment of troops?" What is the equipment? ”

Another chief of staff said: "According to the reconnaissance of our scouts, they are not carrying any heavy weapons and equipment!" Just two infantry regiments? ”

"Infantry regiment?" When Koji Matsushita heard this, he immediately became puzzled: "Is this iron-blooded brigade too arrogant, and wants to capture Niangzi Pass with only two reinforced infantry regiments?" It's ridiculous! ”

When the Japanese army attacked Niangzi Pass, the aircraft and artillery were dispatched, and a brigade and two imperial association regiments were also dispatched to capture Niangzi Pass, which Li Yunlong wanted to use two reinforced infantry regiments to capture Niangzi Pass, in the opinion of Matsushita Koji, it was completely impossible.

Seeing this, Staff Officer Zhang immediately said cautiously: "Could it be that this iron-blooded brigade has some conspiracy and tricks?" Otherwise, it would be impossible for this Li Yunlong to bring only two reinforced regiments! ”

"Hehe, I think this iron-blooded brigade is used to being rampant, and there is no one in sight after winning a few battles before!" Koji Matsushita said coldly: "Now I have Niangzi Pass as a natural danger, plus these tens of thousands of troops to defend the city, I can't believe that I can't hold this Niangzi Pass!" As long as I, Koji Matsushita, am here, it will be impossible for this army to break through the Niangzi Pass! ”

"The commander has a point!" The chief of staff nodded, hesitated for a moment and said, "However, we can't be unwary of the Iron Brigade!" ”

Although Koji Matsushita was not convinced, he was still cautious.

"I'm a dignified Japanese Empire, if I can't even hold a lady's pass, I will eat, go ahead!"

For Koji Matsushita, he has long heard of Li Yunlong, and has always wanted to kill Li Yunlong.
