If there is a country that is best at night warfare in the world, it must be China, and there is no one.

Although the Japanese had a great advantage in firepower, the Chinese commanders would take advantage of the darkness to organize small groups of soldiers to raid their positions.

In this way, in the darkness of the night, the Japanese troops could not distinguish the enemy's position, and many points of fire would be exposed.

And when their firepower leaks, they will be subjected to heavy artillery fire, and then countless Chinese soldiers will rush into their positions, and then charge regardless of the cost of their lives.

You can understand the tactics of the adult sea, or you can understand it as the helplessness of that era.

It is precisely because of this that after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, although the Japanese army had a huge advantage on all sides of the battlefield, they easily did not dare to start a night battle.

During the day, observation balloons and reconnaissance planes have to be high, and coupled with artillery fire, there is no problem in hitting there, but it is much worse at night.

The power of the artillery will drop a lot, and you will have to face endless crowd tactics.

However, the Japanese army can no longer take care of so much, and almost all the Japanese troops are engaged in night battles, and it can be said that an earth-shattering war has begun.

At night, Linyi City is brightly lit.

Liu Yuan stood quietly on Linyi City, squinting his eyes, looking at the war-stained sky in the north.

If heaven wants to make it die, it must first make it mad. The Japanese army is really crazy.

What would you do if you were the commander of the Japanese army? An excellent battle map appeared in my mind, and I would definitely not start a big war so blindly.

Instead, he took advantage of the fact that reinforcements from all over the country did not arrive, resolutely gave up, changed hands and rushed through the blockade of the Hulian Independent Army, and joined forces with another unit, the Japanese Standing 10th Division, to tear apart the relationship between China in Linyi and Tengxian.

However, the commander of the Japanese army has obviously confused his mind, and it seems that his head is really very valuable in the thinking of the Japanese head.

Otherwise, how could they still try to defeat the Chinese army in the northern part of Linyi before reinforcements arrived, and then look for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with the Chinese troops in Linyi?

"How are the preparations for the troops that poke Seishiro Itagaki Chrysanthemum?" Liu Yuan asked Tang Enbo, the anti-Japanese iron man standing beside him.

Today's Towneburgh is much more honest than before. I don't have the mind to get along with Liu Yuan.

Tang Enbo looked at the firelight in the sky, his heart was full of admiration for Liu Yuan, he was on the front line alone, he did not panic at all in the face of hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops, and used his body as bait to lure the enemy deeper, which really requires a courage, and he can't do it at least.

This is also the difference between a general and a handsome.

Tang Enbo saw that Liu Yuan had been looking at him, and he knew that he was probably distracted.

The adjutant whispered a few words in his ear, and Towneburgh responded, "It's 3:30 a.m. today." ”

Liu Yuan nodded and didn't say anything more.

Sun Lianzhong looked at Liu Yuan worriedly, "Commander, do you want to send a force from Linyi to rescue the independent army, I'm afraid that they won't be able to hold it and let the defense line collapse, if no one wants to go." I am willing to take on this responsibility. ”

After all, Hu Lian is a member of the Southwest Army, if something happens, the people of the Southwest will definitely feel very uncomfortable, and the Southwest Army is in the same breath, although the commander does not know what the considerations of Lu Dao are, but the gang still has to help.

"Hmm!" Liu Yuan glanced at Sun Lianzhong, he didn't expect that this man who almost jumped to his feet and scolded himself a few days ago would have such thoughts now.

"Commander, our corps commander is tired and talking nonsense." Chief of Staff Yu Deshui pulled Sun Lianzhong aside, and now there are five thousand people left under Sun Lianzhong, if he fights again, he will become the commander of the light pole, "Although General Hu Lian is dangerous, General Hu Lian has always been wise, and he will definitely not mess up, and we really don't have much strength, even if we send thousands of us to the whole line, it will not have much effect." ”

Sun Lianzhong glared at Yu Deshui fiercely, but he didn't say anything out of helplessness. Liu Yuan laughed and teased Sun Lianzhong and said, "I heard that when Hu Lian, a little cub, was in the southwest, he teased you a lot." ”

"The army has a small hill, that's normal, our Northwest Army was wiped out to the Tenth Army a few years ago, we surrendered, and it's normal for others to look down on us, but since the war in Linyi, my Sun Lianzhong has proved with practical actions that the soldiers from our Northwest Army are also virtuous, and Hu Lian can send troops to support me when I am in the most difficult time, and I will also help him on this point."

Liu Yuan showed a satisfied smile on his face, "In the decisive battle of western Anhui, the Tenth Army and the Northwest Army were hit hard, although I achieved Liu Yuan's prestige, but I have always been ashamed of the civil war, and now the anti-Japanese war is my duty and infinite glory by the soldiers, and the practice between Hu Lian and Commander Sun should be emulated by my generation." ”

Liu Yuan still looked at Tang Enbo when he spoke, Tang Enbo's old face was red, and he felt a little self-blame in his heart, but many times, the dignity of men decides, even if he is wrong, he will not easily admit his mistake. And Wang Zhonglian and others didn't say a word.

"Commander Sun, your combat effectiveness has suffered a lot of losses, but our 20th Army Corps has just entered the battlefield, and our strength is okay, why don't I send the 32nd Brigade to support, what do you think, Commander?"

Since ancient times, heroes have cherished each other, Hu Lian can hold on for so long, it is impossible for Tang Enbo not to admire him, and he also wants to express his attitude to Liu Yuan euphemistically.

Hearing Tang Enbo's words, Sun Lianzhong raised his eyebrows, and looked at the commander of his family with admiration, he is really not an ordinary person, Tang Enbo, a tiger, can be cleaned up and obedient, I'm afraid Chiang Kai-shek doesn't have this ability.

"From the observation of the entire front, the importance of Linyi is self-evident, the 32nd Brigade still stays to protect Linyi, and I will go to reinforce General Hu Lian." Sun Lianzhong's ruthless heart, beating the tiger brothers, going into battle with father and son, at this time, it is better to support Hu Lian by himself, which can prevent unnecessary accidents from happening.

Liu Yuan nodded secretly and said to the two of them, "You two take a rest, I believe that General Hu Lian and General Yu Chengwan, Itagaki Seishiro is so arrogant, I want to see how he ends up when my reinforcements come." ”

Itagaki Seishiro's life is very sad, at this time he seems to have found a beautiful girl hooligan, and he wants to strengthen people, but he takes off his pants and finds that he can't subdue people in a short time, and the police behind him are coming soon, isn't it embarrassing?

The Chinese generals are really good at fighting at night, and their losses are definitely very large, but they just can't break through the defense line, and occasionally they can break through the defense line, and they will find the corpses of Chinese soldiers densely packed on the position, and the Chinese soldiers will all die before they lose their positions.

At 3:30 a.m., at the riverside ferry, the night wind gusted. The soldiers of the 79th Brigade are ready.

The sneak attack troops were crossing the river en masse, and hundreds of large boats were at their disposal, and the soldiers of the 79th Brigade secretly got on the big boats.

Before reaching the other side, the devil's sentinels discovered the 79th Brigade, and the sneak attack immediately turned into a forced crossing.

The commander of the 79th Brigade himself was in the middle of the first wave of strong attacks, and he personally commanded the troops to counterattack, and more than 20 mortars fired at the Japanese artillery on the shore.

The machine gunners did not dare to stop, firing frantically.

Seishiro Itagaki rolled all his troops into the northern battlefield, where he thought of his own rear problems. The first wave of attacks rushed to the riverbank.

Liu Yuan got the information that the sneak attack was successful, and said to Tang Enbo with a smile, "See, this Itagaki Seishiro is so arrogant, he punches out all his fists, as long as we take the stick and lightly tap it on his chrysanthemum, he can't stand this pain." ”

Liu Yuan said his tactics so obscenely, but Yu Deshui said very cooperatively, "The commander's surprise soldiers are prominent, like a steel knife inserted into the enemy's back, and Itagaki can only release the reserves." ”

The captain of the 17th Wing, Kameda Daisa, was directing the troops to launch an attack in Yaoguantun, and he knew that if he didn't work hard at this time, there would not be many opportunities to fight hard.

In desperation, Kameda launched a Lang tide attack, and the Japanese soldiers attacked their frontline area in waves, and they even rushed into Yaoguantun several times.

The Chinese soldiers and the local people fought with them as if they were crazy, and he even saw several Chinese boys surrounding an Imperial soldier, using their hoes to raise and fall on the Imperial soldier.

The Chinese are so shameless, how can they let their children go to war, those damned little cubs, with slingshots, specifically hit the eyes of the imperial soldiers, and then run to the side, strengthen the guns in the hands of the soldiers, and run away.

This is the battlefield, he suddenly remembered, a few days ago in the captured China newspaper, General Liu Yuan wrote on it that the Japanese army is like the Yellow River mixed with mud and sand, dirty, but we are the sea, we have an endless number of Chinese soldiers and civilians, we will digest them sooner or later.

The troops gradually lost their hold, and they eventually withdrew from Yaoguantun, but he was sure that the losses in China were definitely heavier, because they even mobilized the people.

He knew very well that the Chinese troops loved their people and would not let them go to war unless absolutely necessary.

The sky was already slightly white, looking at the sky, Liu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, this most difficult day has finally passed.

The war has been going on so far, although the front has been crumbling, but there is still the strength to fight again, although the Japanese army is strong, but it has shown a certain decline, and the first step is our counteroffensive.

Tang Enbo saw the inexplicable smile on the corner of Liu Yuan's mouth, and felt a little chill all over his body, this Liu Yuan is really not simple.

But he is also mourning for Itagaki Seishiro, this Liu Yuan is really going to clean up the mad dog of Itagaki Seishiro.

Liu Yuan glanced back at Ang Lee, a man who had been standing silently beside him since he returned from the United States, his eyes were full of exhaustion, but when he saw himself, his face was always full of loyalty and smiles.

"Send a telegram to the chairman of the committee, saying that I will launch a round of counteroffensive in Linyi, and Itagaki Seishiro will be annihilated in four days at the latest."

Li An nodded silently and said, "Zhilu Dao, the situation has stabilized, you should rest early." ”

Liu Yuan nodded, and walked back to the headquarters with Tang Enbo, at this time, Tang Enbo would definitely not pretend to be B, because the reinforcements had already arrived on the battlefield, and he had no capital to pretend. And he found that his current self sincerely admired General Liu Yuan.

"Call Xu Guangda and them." Liu Yuan said to Li Erniu.

"They're still resting." Li Erniu said with a little worry.

"They've had a lot of breaks." Liu Yuan continued to ask.

"It's been fifteen minutes." Li Erniu looked at his watch and said.

"Enough, wake them up, young people just can't, Lao Tzu hasn't slept for a long time, they actually sleep." Liu Yuan scolded twice.

For Liu Yuan, a stern official, Sun Liren and others have some complaints, and Liao Yaoxiang has some complaints.

Xu Guangda was in good spirits, he came by car, he had already squinted in the car for a while, naturally he was not so tired, Sun Liren was a military commander, he dared to sleep there, and naturally he was in a hurry, "The war is urgent, don't complain about your superiors." Townwood poured a cup of bitter tea for a few young men.

Xu Guangda subconsciously thought that the good old man Zuo Quan was coming, or the party representative Nie Rongzhen, and when they took a look, they found that it was the legendary anti-Japanese iron man Tang Enbo, and he felt the personality charm of the commander, but he still didn't know how to do it.

Xu Guangda was the first to see Liu Yuan standing on the side, saluted and shouted, "Report to the commander, the first mechanized brigade has all entered Linyi, and all the baggage troops of the army have arrived, please instruct." ”

Liao Yaoxiang scolded Xu Guangda severely, I'll go, don't be ashamed, you guys are trucks, and you're embarrassed to talk about the baggage troops. "Our baggage troops and artillery regiment have not arrived, but the morale of the soldiers is good, please give the order to the commander."
