Chapter 654: Three Strategies Against the Enemy

After Sun Ziyuan and Yin Jinshan heard Sun Weiguo's words, they couldn't help but be surprised, they didn't expect that the Jibu Battalion would actually conquer the county seat of Xiyang County.

When they received the telegram of the total annihilation of Lijiazhuang Town, they felt that the operation in Xiyang County must have failed, but they did not expect such a result.

The two regiment commanders showed different expressions on their faces, Yin Jinshan had pride and pride on his face, and there was a firm expression of not admitting defeat, the Jibu Battalion was the establishment of the Sixth Cavalry Regiment, and one of their battalions had achieved such a record, and the main force of the Sixth Cavalry Regiment had not yet completed the task, which made Yin Jinshan feel very uncomfortable, and he made up his mind to completely annihilate the Japanese troops in Lijiazhuang Town.

Sun Ziyuan looked enviously at Yin Jinshan beside him, he knew that he, the regiment commander, had the role of balancing the officers of the first regiment, but Sun Ziyuan didn't want to take the troops of the first regiment to fight a few beautiful battles and convince his officers.

The two regiment commanders had a common idea in their hearts, and they decided to fight bravely and annihilate the Japanese troops in Lijiazhuang Town.

After Sun Weiguo saw the expressions of the two regiment commanders, he knew that his agitation method had played a role, and he did not continue to fight the two regiment commanders.

Looking at the map, Sun Weiguo had a solemn expression on his face, and he and Qin Xianliang talked softly.

In view of the situation of the Japanese troops in the vicinity of Lijiazhuang Town, Sun Weiguo immediately made arrangements.

Different from the previous siege operations of the two regiments, Sun Weiguo planned to encircle the Japanese army this time, let go of the Japanese army, and contain the Japanese army.

The specific combat plan was to let go of the 16th Brigade of the Japanese Army in Yangjiayu Village, let them break away from the Japanese troops in Lijiazhuang Town, attack and encircle them with the armored battalion and cavalry battalion of the 6th Cavalry Regiment, and annihilate them by means of movement warfare, the rest of the 17th Brigade of the Japanese Army on the periphery of Lijiazhuang Town will continue to be contained by the troops of the 1st Battalion of Huanggang, and the troops of the 18th Brigade of the Japanese Army in Huanglong Village will be besieged by the main force of the 1st Regiment of the Pre-1st Regiment, and after the 6th Cavalry Regiment has solved the 16th Brigade of the Japanese Army, the Japanese troops in Lijiazhuang Town and Huanglong Village will be dealt with respectively.

Of course, at present, the Japanese bombers are still continuing to fight, and the operations of various units can only be done after the Japanese bombers are over.

Moreover, Sun Weiguo demanded that the combat operations of all units must be fast, because it is very likely that the Japanese bombers will rush to Xiyang County again to support the operation.

In particular, once the Japanese troops learned that the brigade headquarters of the independent mixed Fifth Brigade had been terminated, they were likely to be angry and desperate to bomb Xiyang County.

Combat orders began to be given, and it was at this time that the sirens began to sound.

Black dots began to appear in the sky, and the four black dots gradually became clear from far to near, which was an airplane.

"Japanese planes, quickly hide." Someone outside had already begun to shout loudly, and the warriors immediately made dodging movements.

Huang Guohua took a few guards to immediately cover Sun Weiguo out of the house, if Sun Weiguo was in the house, once the house was hit by the Japanese aerial bomb, the consequences would be unimaginable, not to mention that now the main officers of the new Second Brigade are here, if they are hit by aerial bombs, then the morale of the new Second Brigade will drop to the extreme.

When Sun Weiguo came to the outside of the house, he immediately raised his binoculars and looked at the sky, and at the same time, the four planes also began to reduce their altitude, apparently they also discovered this small force in Jiedu Township.

"Don't shoot, it's our plane." When Sun Weiguo saw the pattern on the plane clearly, he hurriedly shouted.

Several soldiers who were setting up light machine guns couldn't help but be stunned, they heard Sun Weiguo's words, and looked towards the sky in disbelief.

After the planes lowered their altitude, the pilots clearly saw that the troops in front of them were the troops of the Eighth Route Army, which flew quickly over Jiedu Township and flew directly over Lijiazhuang Town.

"It's our Iron Bird, squad leader, do you see, it's our Iron Bird, and we also have Iron Bird to support the operation."

A guard soldier who had followed Sun Ziyuan in advance called out excitedly, tears of excitement appeared on his face.

"That's a plane, it's our plane, and our plane can also bomb the little devils, no, we only have four planes, but there are six little devils' planes, and this precious plane must not be shot down...... Bah, look at my crow's mouth, our plane will definitely not be shot down. ”

The squad leader looked at the disappearing plane, and he muttered to himself.

The mood of the officers and soldiers was high, and Sun Weiguo gradually put down the binoculars.

Qin Xianliang, Sun Ziyuan and Yin Jinshan knew that the opportunity was rare, so they immediately saluted Sun Weiguo and immediately hurried back to the front line with the guards to command the battle.

Sun Weiguo watched them leave, he returned to the truck, he wanted to return to the brigade headquarters to command the operation.

Moreover, Sun Weiguo knew that from now on, the mixed Fifth Brigade would not pose a threat to the New Second Brigade, and the only ones who could really pose a threat to the New Second Brigade were the troops of the First Brigade and the 21st Division.

In the sky over Lijiazhuang Town, Xiyang County, six Japanese light bombers were still carrying out unscrupulous bombing, and after the aerial bombs were dropped, the Japanese bombers began to lower their altitude, and they began to strafe at low altitudes.

The Japanese bombers were so arrogant that they would not be escorted by fighter planes when they went out, and after they dropped aerial bombs, they would also carry out low-altitude strafing.

This is the saddest thing, the Chinese troops not only lack aircraft, but also very short of anti-aircraft weapons, in the face of the Japanese low-altitude strafing, there is no other way but to dodge.

The devil soldiers hid in the position, their faces were full of smug expressions, and when the Chinese officers and soldiers saw this scene, they could only hide helplessly.

"Look at those Zhina troops, it's ridiculous that they are hiding in the trenches like rats, they were still attacking us before, but now they can only dodge like rats, hmph, these Zhina troops want to defeat us, don't dream."

"The Imperial Army will definitely be able to annihilate them, and when the planes strafe them, we will immediately attack them, and we will definitely crush them, and these Chinese troops dare to attack us, they are really beyond their strength."

The devil soldiers talked triumphantly, and the low-altitude strafing of the Japanese planes gave them a great morale boost.

On the contrary, here in the Chinese position, the mood of the officers and soldiers was very low, and they hid in the trenches, looking helplessly at the Japanese bombers.

"When will we have such a plane to assist in the battle, and we can only dodge like this in the face of the little devil's plane? What about our planes, won't any of them come here? One of the warriors muttered to himself.

"Hide up, the little devil's plane is here again." A company commander shouted.
