Xiao Shen, Captain Li, this is also for your own good. After the meeting, Zhao Gang came over to do ideological work for Shen Long, "We have already seen the power of special operations, and it can be said that it is your contribution that has brought Shanxi's anti-Japanese work into the counteroffensive stage much earlier than expected." ”

"But in the end, the war still depends on the frontal battle of the large corps to win, and if you are only in charge of the special forces all the time, it will be a bit too wasteful of your talent; As you can see from the previous ambush battle, you also have a good talent in conventional warfare! Zhao Gang talked eloquently, and the words were full of the same meaning, only by entering the regular army sequence, can you get more room to play and make more contributions to the cause of resistance against Japan.

Of course, this is also conducive to Shen Long's promotion, but neither he nor Zhao Gang has time to consider these personal issues, they only care about one thing, how to drive the little devil out of China as soon as possible.

"I obey the arrangement, as long as I can kill some little devils, let me do anything!" Shen Long also realized this, although the special forces are useful, the role of the regular army is irreplaceable, and Li Yunlong's independent regiment will continue to expand in the future, if he is only a company commander of a special company, there will definitely be much less room to play a role.

"You don't have to worry about the monks, the special company will continue to be under your command." Zhao Gang was very satisfied with his reaction, now there are not many literate people in the Eighth Route Army, he has always valued Shen Long, and Shen Long has never disappointed him, creating various miracles again and again.

At the end of the preparations for the battle, the army officially started, and the entire northwest of Jin was in chaos, not only the Eighth Route Army and the Jin Sui Army, but also the anti-Japanese armed forces in various regions, including the bandit mountain kings who gathered in the mountains and forests.

The Japanese reinforcements stationed in Luyang walked in the middle of the ambush, first attacked by a battalion of the Kuomintang army, exchanged fire for an hour, and both sides suffered casualties.

Mine warfare and sparrow warfare are fought in turns, and the weapons of the earth eight roads are varied, and the earthen cannons, large lifting poles, bird guns, arquebuses, and firecrackers in iron barrels in the Guangxu year are crackling and crackling, and the lethality of the earth cannons at close range is not small, and dozens of catties of gunpowder wrapped in a large number of iron sand crushed plowshares are sprayed out in a fan with a bang, and the living targets within 30 or 40 meters are either killed or injured.

The Japanese army had more and more wounded, and the commander ordered a squad to escort the wounded back to the stronghold, and whoever wanted to return to the stronghold was attacked by a group of bandits on the way, and all the soldiers of the squad died, and the bandits did not give preferential treatment to the prisoners or implement a humanitarian policy, they first robbed the military supplies, even the wounded were stripped of their clothes, and then the wounded were slaughtered one by one, and dozens of naked corpses were thrown on the road.

The Japanese army in Fu'an received the reinforcement order, just out of the stronghold, stepped on the mines again and again, sent sappers to detect the mines, and was immediately knocked down by the sudden machine gun fire, the Japanese army was in a hurry, and rushed up in battle formation, but it was empty, the Japanese commander ordered the attack to advance, the troops fought while walking, harassing all the way, and walked out less than a few dozen kilometers, and more than half of the casualties were already lost.

After receiving the request for help from Ping'an County, the only remaining senior officers in Taiyuan City argued, and finally only sent a squadron to the rescue, took a train to the northwest of Shanxi Province for reinforcements, walked dozens of kilometers, the train stopped, the commander got off the train and saw that more than 10 kilometers of railroad tracks were gone.

They finally approached the periphery of Ping'an County, but they encountered Chu Yunfei's ambush, Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment had been waiting for a long time again, they had anti-Japanese armed forces under the command of the Eighth Route Army to ventilate the news, and the Japanese devils were constantly harassed by anti-Japanese forces along the way, and they were already exhausted; Chu Yunfei waited for his work and paid a small price to completely solve this squadron.

Reinforcements from all walks of life are constantly wiped out by this improvised coalition army, and the little devils in Ping'an County have become lone soldiers, but this does not mean that these little devils are easy to solve.

Shen Long's plan encountered a small setback, these days Ping'an County has strengthened its vigilance, and he and the soldiers of the special company have changed several plans and have not been able to sneak into the city, so they have to attack strongly.

Shen Long, Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang together at the high point to observe the enemy's defense line, the city wall of Ping'an County was built in the Chongjiao period of the Ming Dynasty, the well-preserved city wall is four or five zhang high, there is a wide horse road on it, the city bricks are made of glutinous rice juice mixed with mortar, it is strong and abnormal, and the intact and neat battlements reflect the tactical characteristics of the cold weapon era.

"Xiao Shen, do you see any doorways?" Zhao Gang asked.

"It's a little hard to fight!" Shen Long sighed, although it is the city wall in the era of cold weapons, but for the Eighth Route Army, which lacks heavy weapons, it is not easy to knock down the city wall and attack the city, "The sacrifice of the frontal assault is too great, and the enemy's firepower network on the city wall is very dense, I think we should use cannons and machine guns to suppress the city head, put on a strong attack posture, and at the same time dig tunnels and plant explosives under the city wall to blow up a hole in the city wall!" ”

"Just do as you say, you and I will go with you to command the machine guns and artillery, and I will arrange for other people to dig the tunnels." Now that Xiuqin is not in the city, Li Yunlong is not so anxious, and after speaking, he went down to mobilize people.

Shen Long glanced at Ping'an County again, and then followed, Zhao Gang was a little curious, "What are you looking at?" ”

"This is a city wall built in the Ming Dynasty, I'm thinking, how did the Ming army lose such a thick city wall? I feel like they're not as good as the fruit army! Shen Long sighed.

The battle started at the north gate first, and in an instant, there were also gunshots like bursts of beans from the other three directions, and the light and heavy machine guns on and off the city were shooting at each other, and several echelons of demolition teams braved the rain of bullets in order to cover up the true purpose of the independent regiment, and their casualties were very large, Li Yunlong saw that his hands were itchy, pushed away the machine gunners, and personally shot at the city wall with the Type 92 heavy machine gun, and the machine guns hit so hard and hard that the defenders of the city wall could not raise their heads.

However, without the support of heavy artillery for the time being, coupled with the condescending geographical position of the little devil, the independent regiment was temporarily at a disadvantage, and Li Yunlong was a little anxious at this time, and shouted loudly, "Second battalion commander, where are your fucking Italian artillery?" Pull me up! ”

"It's coming, it's coming!" Shen Long happened to come here at this time, and he slipped away to debug this Schneider M1897 75mm field gun, which is the famous Miss Seventy-Five.

"Scholar, do you see the heavy machine gun position at the head of the city? Find a way to shoot him! Li Yunlong pointed to the head of the city and said.
