Chapter 148: Li Jiapo

The 386 Brigade and the headquarters of the Mobile Column.

When the brigade commander walked into the war room after answering the phone,

Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie and Cheng Shifa have arrived.

Seeing the brigade commander come in, Li Yunlong was the first to stand up.

"Brigade commander, you can hand over the Yamazaki Brigade of Dog Day to our independent regiment." Li Yunlong patted his chest and said, "It won't take half a day's work, I will definitely cut off the head of Jihei Yamazaki and give it to the brigade commander to use as a night pot." ”

Cheng Shifa became anxious when he heard this, and shouted: "Brigade commander, you can't hand over the task to the independent regiment. ”

That is, Cheng Shifa is always competing with Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei and Kong Jie are very interesting, and they don't plan to compete with Li Yunlong at all.

"Cheng Blind, what are you talking about?" Li Yunlong was furious, "Why can't you hand it over to our independent regiment?" ”

Cheng Shifa said: "When we hit Yangquan County last time, the brigade commander gave you the main attack task to your independent regiment, why did the Yamazaki brigade return it to your independent regiment this time?" Can't all the good things belong to you Li Yunlong, right? ”

"The brigade commander handed over the main attack task of Yangquan County to our independent regiment, that is because the combat effectiveness of our independent regiment is strong, and the combat effectiveness of your 772nd regiment is not good, and you can't afford the heavy responsibility of the main attack, so who can blame it?" Li Yunlong snorted.

"Fart!" Cheng Shifa was also furious, "What is worse than your independent regiment in our 772 regiment?" ”

Cheng Shifa was so depressed that he was going to die, the conscience of heaven and earth, the 772nd Regiment was one of the two old regiments of the 386 Brigade, but Li Yunlong, a dog, kept saying that the combat effectiveness of the 772nd Regiment was not as good as that of the Independent Regiment, is this really unreasonable?

What's even more worrying is that the brigade commander and the chief of staff seem to think so too?

There are also battalion and regiment-level cadres of the entire mobile column, and it seems that the independent regiment can fight better than the 772nd regiment It seems to be a consensus?

Thinking of this, Cheng Shifa really wanted to hit his head against the wall, God, this is not the case, the 772 regiment is the most fierce.

"Hmph, what's worse than our independent group?" Li Yunlong rolled his eyes and said, "If the brigade commander hadn't transferred the ammunition reserves of our independent regiment to your 772 regiment, the 2000 people of your 772 regiment would have to fight with the devil with a burning stick, and you still have the fucking face to argue with Lao Tzu?" ”

After a pause, Li Yunlong said again: "If I were you, I would just buy a piece of tofu and kill me." ”

Hearing this, Ding Wei and Kong Jie couldn't help but exchange a look, and their faces were speechless.

This is the main reason why the two of them haven't said a word since they entered the war room, who can fucking say anything more than Li Yunlong?

In terms of fighting, Cheng Shifa is not necessarily inferior to Li Yunlong, but in terms of verbal kung fu, the three Cheng Shifa tied together are not Li Yunlong's opponents.

After less than two rounds of fighting, Cheng Shifa was defeated.

Cheng Shifa could only ask the brigade commander for help: "Brigade commander, you can't be biased this time." ”

The chief of staff couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand, and said in his heart Cheng Shifa, Cheng Shifa, you are really an iron man, do you ask the brigade commander for help like this?

Are you like this, didn't you directly pull the brigade commander into Li Yunlong's camp?

Sure enough, the brigade commander listened to a face and said in a deep voice: "Lao Tzu has always treated several regiments under his command equally, and he has never been partial, and Lao Tzu's selection criteria have never been one, whoever does it, if it doesn't work, give it to me, don't fucking occupy the pit and don't shit!" ”

"That's right!" Li Yunlong said, "What the brigade commander said is right, whoever does it will go up, you can't be blind, just stay honestly, when you were in Hubei, Henan and Anhui, it was Lao Tzu who taught you to shoot guns, and now Lao Tzu will teach you to fight again, and Lao Tzu will teach you how to attack the highlands!" ”

The brigade commander said: "Li Yunlong, don't get too early first, if you can't come up with something new, you won't have a share in this battle." ”

"Brigade commander, don't worry." Li Yunlong patted his chest and said, "Our independent regiment will definitely be able to take Lijiapo, and the reason is actually very simple, because our independent regiment just conducted a highland attack exercise a few days ago!" ”

A few days ago, when Wang Ye proposed to conduct an exercise to attack the fortified positions on the high ground, Li Yunlong still felt inexplicable.

But now, Li Yunlong just wants to reward Wang Ye with a bowl of sweet potato roast, this kid is really one of his lucky generals, their independent regiment has just completed the drill of attacking the highlands, and this side is really alive.

And it's a real highland battle!

The brigade commander couldn't help but glance at the chief of staff, and said in his heart that Li Yunlong can always play a little new trick.

"Okay, don't talk yet." The brigade commander nodded, and said to Cheng Shifa, "Cheng Shifa, I just said, Lao Tzu's selection criteria have always been only one, whoever does it will be on the list, now you can tell me what you think, if this battle is handed over to your 772 regiment to fight, how are you going to fight?" ”

Cheng Shifa said without thinking: "The first point of the battle is to destroy the enemy's firepower. ”

"So I plan to first invest a company of troops to launch a feint to lure the Japanese army to expose the firing points, and then use the firepower of the artillery company to carry out fixed-point elimination of the Japanese firing points, and after pulling out most of the firing points of the Yamazaki brigade, put the main force of the regiment to launch a general attack, and finally annihilate the main force of the Yamazaki brigade in one fell swoop."

In the end, Cheng Shifa waved his hand vigorously.

It was as if the Yamazaki Brigade had been completely annihilated by the 772 Regiment.

However, when the brigade commander heard this, he frowned.

What Cheng Shifa said is actually the standard process of tackling tough battles, and there is nothing wrong with it.

But combined with the terrain of Lijiapo, the problem is big, if you really fight like this, the casualties will be very large!

The brigade commander said: "The terrain of Lijiapo is very strange, the top of the slope is a platform with a diameter of about 500 meters, three sides are cliffs, only the south is a gentle slope, but the width of the gentle slope in the south is limited, and an attack can be carried out at most with the strength of one company, and the firepower of the Yamazaki brigade is not deployed on the ridge line of the mountain, but at a distance of 80 meters behind the ridge line, so I am afraid that the shells of your artillery company will not be able to carry out targeted elimination of its firepower." ”

"Huh? This ......" Cheng Shifa was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

Is Jihei Yamazaki, this old devil, so cunning?

After that, Shi Fa quickly reacted, and then said: "Brigade commander, since we can only develop one company at a time, then we will grind one company at a time, and we don't believe in grinding the immortal Yamazaki Brigade!" ”

"Isn't it just an isolated group of enemies? Thousands of people died. ”

"Our 772nd Regiment has an advantage in both strength and firepower."

"I don't believe that our 772nd Regiment can still kill the Yamazaki Brigade."

The brigade commander didn't say much, turned his head and asked Li Yunlong, "Li Yunlong, what about you?" ”

"Cheng Blind, you listen to Lao Tzu, see how Lao Tzu fights the highland battle." Li Yunlong snorted, and said to the brigade commander, "Brigade commander, one company after another is put into the attack, this is called adding fuel tactics, it is a taboo for soldiers, and our old Li will definitely not make such a low-level mistake." ”

"You ......" Cheng Shifa was angry when he heard this.

The brigade commander stretched out his hand to stop Cheng Shifa, and said, "You go on." ”

Li Yunlong asked, "Brigade commander, what kind of soil is Li Jiapo?" Can you dig it? ”

The chief of staff said: "According to the report of the Decisive Column, the soil on the gentle slope to the south is relatively loose and can be dug up. ”

"That's good." Li Yunlong said, "Yamazaki Jihei, this old devil is cunning enough, and he deploys his troops and firepower fifty meters behind the ridge line of the mountain, so that our artillery fire and machine gun fire under the hillside cannot hit them, but as long as our infantry crosses the ridge line, they will enter the firing range of their machine gun fire!" ”

"So if you blindly attack, it will be impossible to take Lijiapo before the ammunition of the Yamazaki brigade is exhausted."

"How much ammunition the Yamazaki brigade carried, we don't know Lao Li, but it should be no problem to reimburse all the 772 regiment of Cheng Blind on Lijiapo."

The brigade commander said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, just talk about the main point." ”

"Yes." Li Yunlong said loudly, "The point is that the deployment of Yamazaki Jihei can certainly avoid the support fire of our column, but for the area below the ridge line of the mountain, the movement of our troops will become blind and deaf, and our troops can easily move to the ridge line." ”

"And then in the form of earthwork, move forward."

"It doesn't take much, it's enough to push forward fifty meters."

"Fifty meters forward with earthwork, only thirty meters from the Japanese fortifications."

"At this distance, even the girls can throw grenades into the devil's fortifications, and then concentrate all the grenades and grenades in the whole regiment and throw them all at the head of the Yamazaki brigade within a minute."

"Our independent regiment now has more than 3,000 border grenades and more than 500 melon grenades."

"Such a dense firepower fell on the heads of the Yamazaki brigade in one minute, it must be enough for the little devil to drink a pot."

"Then, while the little devil was blown to pieces, the whole regiment launched a general attack in a dense formation, rushing up to the platform at the top of the slope and engaging in white-knuckle combat with the Yamazaki brigade."

The brigade commander looked at the chief of staff again.

Li Yunlong's method is much more clever than Cheng Shifa's stupid method.

Only Cheng Shifa was still unconvinced, and said: "The devil of the Yamazaki brigade seems to be dead?" When you are working on the soil of the independent group, won't the devils fight back? ”

"The Yamazaki brigade also has artillery and will also carry out artillery shelling of the independent regiment."

"Are you sure that the way of earthwork is less than the casualties of the assault?"

"If you want me to see the way the earth work is done, the number of casualties will only be greater."

"The devil's artillery is not bad, the artillery is extremely accurate, a shell falling into the tunnel can kill and injure a group of people, do you think there are more people in your independent regiment? Or are there more shells from the Yamazaki brigade? ”

"It's easy." Li Yunlong said, "Let's dig a narrow tunnel." ”

A narrow pit is a trapezoidal pit with a narrow top and a spacious bottom.

This type of tunnel is effective against shelling, because it is difficult for shells to fall into the tunnel.

Cheng Shifa said: "The narrow mouth of the tunnel is useless, the devil has infantry in addition to artillery, if I am Yamazaki Zhihei, I will put in the infantry counter-assault, rush to the top of the tunnel and stuff grenades down, how can you break it at this time?" ”

Li Yunlong couldn't help but be stunned for a second when he heard this, he hadn't thought about this question.

However, Li Yunlong reacted quickly, and immediately said: "Then use artillery to implement counter-suppression." ”

Cheng Shifa said: "I'm afraid it's useless to use artillery, how many shells does the artillery company of your independent regiment have?" Even if you use the column artillery regiment to support you, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold out for a few minutes. ”

The brows of the brigade commander and the chief of staff frowned subconsciously.

If the counter-assault of the devil's infantry cannot be stopped, then the fighters of the independent regiment digging the tunnel will be attacked by the devil's unscrupulous grenades, and the number of casualties will definitely not be small.

Just then, a voice came from outside the door.

"It's also simple, you can suppress the devil infantry with heavy machine gun fire."

With the words, Wang Ye strode in with a dusty meteor.

"Heavy machine guns?" Cheng Shifa said, "Xiao Wang, I'm afraid you don't know the terrain of Lijiapo, right?" ”

"How so?" Wang Ye smiled, "I just came from Lijiapo, how can I not know the terrain of Lijiapo?" ”

Cheng Shifa said: "Since you know the terrain of Lijiapo, how can you say what you just said?" Suppressed with a heavy machine gun? How to suppress? Do you mount the heavy machine gun to the ridge line at the top of the Li family slope? ”

"Haven't you thought that the soldiers of the heavy machine gun company of your independent regiment have worked hard to lift the heavy machine gun up and then assemble it, but it is very likely that before a bullet protection board is finished, the devil's shells have already been overwhelmingly smashed over, and the Yamazaki brigade has two squadrons of mortars in addition to grenadiers!"

Wang Ye smiled: "Commander Cheng, I didn't say that I wanted to mount the heavy machine gun on the ridgeline. ”

"Don't put it on the ridge?" Cheng Shifa was stunned for a moment and said, "If you don't put it on the ridge line, how can the heavy machine gun suppress the devil infantry who are counterattacking?" Could it be that the bullets fired by the heavy machine guns of your independent regiment can still turn around? Ha ha. ”

After finishing speaking, Cheng Shifa felt funny and laughed twice, but the smile on his face froze in the next second.

Because Wang Ye said to him very seriously: "Commander Cheng, you are right, the bullets fired by the heavy machine guns of our independent regiment can really turn, in fact, the heavy machine gun bullets of your 772nd regiment can also turn." ”

"What do you say?" The smile on Cheng Shifa's face froze, and his face was incredulous.

Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, the chief of staff, and the brigade commander were also dumbfounded.

Wang Ye continued: "In addition to the straight line shooting, there is actually a kind of transcendence shooting, the Battle of the Somme, the German army concentrated 200 Maxim heavy machine guns, four kilometers away from the British trench position to carry out overshoot shooting, in less than half a day to kill and wound 60,000 British troops, directly led to the British offensive stillborn. ”

"More than 60,000 British troops killed or wounded?" Cheng Shifa was dumbfounded, "Really? ”

"It's a bit impressive." The brigade commander said, "When I was studying in Whampoa, I was introduced by a foreign instructor. ”

"Beyond the Shooter?" Ding Wei said, "Xiao Wang, you mean, heavy machine guns can still be used like mortars?" Make a curve and hit the anticline of the mountain? ”

"Yes." Wang Ye said, "Not only the anticline, but even into the tunnel!" In the Battle of the Somme, 60,000 British troops were killed by 200 German Maxim heavy machine guns while hiding in the tunnels. ”

"I really didn't expect this." Ding Wei said, "I've seen it for a long time!" There's also one more way to fight! ”

The brigade commander stood up and said, "Li Yunlong, the Yamazaki Brigade will be handed over to your independent regiment." ”

"In addition, in order to strengthen the heavy machine gun firepower of your independent regiment, I will temporarily transfer the 772nd regiment, the new 1st regiment, and the 9 heavy machine gun companies of the new 2nd regiment to the command of your independent regiment."

"With these 72 Type 92 heavy machine guns, it's enough for a devil to drink a pot."

Li Yunlong got up and said, "Brigade commander, don't worry, the independent regiment will never drop the chain!" ”

Now, Cheng Shifa has nothing to say, what else is there to say? Who let him not have a soldier like Wang Ye?

However, what did Wang Ye say beyond shooting? How can I not believe it? See if you can hit the dog's day, if you can't hit this transcendent shot, don't blame Lao Tzu for laughing at you.

……

On the way back to the independent regiment, Li Yunlong also had the same worries.

"Xiao Wang, the transcendence shooting you are talking about, is it really fake?"

"Don't be unable to fight when the time comes, let Cheng Blind's joke still be secondary, and the troops will be in trouble if they suffer a big loss."

"Commander, don't worry." Wang Ye said solemnly, "The Transcendence Shooting Method is absolutely true, if it is fake, and I have gone to the vicinity of Lijiapo to investigate just now, and even the heavy machine gun position has been selected." ”

"It is about four kilometers away from the Japanese position at the top of Lijiapo, in a straight line."

"There is a mountain between the two positions, and I don't know how the devil died when he died."

"Haha, that's good." Li Yunlong said with a smile, "In this way, you can carry out civil work with confidence, otherwise, if the little devil counterattacks, the situation will be really a little tricky." ”

……

Li Jiapo, Japanese position.

"Second Lieutenant, please telegraph to the headquarters of the 1st Army."

Yamazaki Zhihei held his saber and said to the leader of the communication team with a proud face: "My Yamazaki troops have seized Lijiapo and have built complete fortifications relying on the favorable terrain. ”

After a pause, he continued, "One more sentence." ”

"With the strong fortifications built by this unit,"

"and sufficient ammunition for the troops to carry with them,"

"It's more than enough to stick to it for three days, and it is enough to hold on for five days."

"Therefore, Your Excellency the Commander can wait for two days for the main forces of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army to gather on the periphery of Lijiapo, and then concentrate the main force of the 1st Army to carry out counter-encirclement of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army."

The second lieutenant copied the telegram and translated it into dots and sent it.

After sending the telegram, the second lieutenant of the devil took the communication corps to repair the fortifications.

Since the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese army has developed a fine tradition of advocating the repair of fortifications, and the first thing they do when they camp in a place is to build fortifications around the camp, and if they camp for more than three days, they can build a simple military camp, and if they camp for more than half a month, they can even build a small fortress.

The devil's communication soldiers also have to repair fortifications.

However, Yamazaki Jihei patted Captain Ghost Water on the shoulder and said: "Second Lieutenant, you better sit down and rest, the existing fortifications are enough, so you better save some physical strength, when the main force of the 1st Army launches a counteroffensive from the periphery, we will also carry out a large-scale counterattack against the Eighth Route Army, and we will not be able to hold it without sufficient physical strength." ”

"Hello!" The second lieutenant of the devil paused, and really stopped repairing the fortifications.

After all, who really likes manual labor?
