Chapter 176: Surround Three Queyi!
Half an hour later, Kazuki Yamamoto, who was carrying the rank of Osa, walked into the battle hall with a saber on his shoulder.
Walking up to Yoshio Shinozuka, his feet together, there was a crisp snapping sound.
He paused: "Your Excellency General, are you looking for me?" ”
"Yo Si." Yoshio Shinozuka nodded and said, "Yamamoto-kun, you're here." ”
After a pause, Yoshio Shinozuka said again: "I'll make a long story short, Li Yunlong led his troops to appear in Yangquan Lion Mountain, the troops of the Fourth Brigade Regiment attacked Lion Rock twice, and they all returned with heavy defeats, even the commander of the Tsuda Miwu Brigade was broken, Li Yunlong is about to attack Yangquan, can your special team behead Li Yunlong?" ”
After the outbreak of the Great War, Kazuki Yamamoto had handed over the command of the intelligence system and the special high division of the First Army to Takeo Anten, an intelligence staff officer.
"Your Excellency, with all due respect, you are acting rashly!" Yamamoto's voice didn't rise or fall in the slightest.
"Li Yunlong is indeed on the special team's must-kill list."
"That's when they have accurate information and a ninety percent success rate before the secret service decapitates him."
"Although Li Yunlong's exact whereabouts are now known, he has the strength of a regiment by his side, and this regiment is well-equipped and has strong firepower..."
"Yamamoto-kun, I don't need your explanation." Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand, interrupted Yamamoto's words, and said, "If your special forces change into the military uniforms and equipment of the Eighth Route and parachute near Yangquan, how sure are you that you can kill Li Yunlong?" ”
"Only 2 percent!" Yamamoto Kazuki is the first to say.
"2 into sure? So low? Yoshio Shinozuka frowned, this success rate greatly exceeded his expectations.
"Hey!" "According to reliable intelligence, Li Yunlong has a special force that he has carefully cultivated, and this special force has performed well in both Qi County and Liao County. ”
During the period of being in charge of the intelligence system of the First Army, this kid Yamamoto did have a lot of information about the new regiment.
"2 percent is certain, and the humble position is already high, but in fact it is only about 1 percent certainty."
"Even if the special team is lucky and finds and successfully kills Li Yunlong, there is a 90% chance that the special team will be wiped out in the siege of the Eighth Road."
"The special team should be a strategic-level force, in the words of Shanxi businessmen, replacing Li Yunlong with the special team is a loss-making deal."
"What's more, the probability of being able to replace Li Yunlong is also extremely low."
"It's just that since Your Excellency General has such an order, our special forces should carry it out."
Yoshio Shinozuka frowned when he heard this, his eyes were thoughtful, and the officers such as Hideyoshi Kusuyama did not dare to disturb.
No matter how you look at it, as Yamamoto Kazuki said, taking the secret service team to exchange Li Yunlong's head is a loss-making transaction.
In order to cut off the head of a mere Eighth Route Regiment Commander and bury the strategic-level troops, Yoshio Shinozuka was reluctant.
"Right now, Zhengtai Road and Tongpu Road have been vandalized and attacked by the Eighth Road."
"Li Yunlong's troops are also preparing to attack Yangquan City, and the garrison of Yangquan City is empty, Yamamoto-kun, do you have any good suggestions?"
Yoshio Shinozuka no longer mentions the beheading of Li Yunlong, and the old devil is now a little poor in donkey skills.
Although Yamamoto is good at special operations, he often thinks differently from conventional officers and has a unique perspective on warfare.
Yamamoto had predicted a few months earlier that the Eight Roads would launch this campaign, but at that time Shinozuka Yoshio didn't take it to heart, thinking that it was just Yamamoto's nonsense.
But now it's clearly too late to regret it.
However, it is useless for Yoshio Shinozuka to take it to heart, this is out of the policy of the commander of the North China Front, Tada Jun, and he only has the share of carrying out orders.
The forces were too scattered and did not take the Eighth Route Army into account, giving the Eighth Route Army an opportunity.
But the battlefield has developed to the current situation, and Yamamoto Kazuki has nothing to do for a while, and he can't think of any good plan to turn the tables.
……
In Yangquan, the headquarters of the new regiment of Lion Rock.
The battalion commanders and the company commanders were called to the regimental headquarters for a meeting by the signal corps.
"This is Yangquan City."
Gathering several battalion and company commanders, Li Yunlong pointed to the eastern city wall, and then drew a square on the ground to represent the city.
Without being verbose, Li Yunlong pointed to the traces on the ground and began to talk about the deployment of the troops:
"This time, our troops are relatively insufficient, so we won't play the four directions, but the main attack."
"Let's play something fresh with the devil."
"The first battalion served as the main attack, attacking the west gate of the city wall, the mountain artillery battalion was responsible for knocking on the devil's city wall with mountain artillery, and the machine gun was responsible for protecting the mountain artillery."
"Once our mountain artillery battalion knocks on the city wall, the first battalion will immediately attack the city, divide two companies to attack along the city wall, and attack the north and south gates together."
"Another company and a squadron of swords followed the road map straight to the devil's munitions depot and grain depot, and occupied these two places first."
"As for which two companies will assist and which company will continue to attack inside, Zhang Dabiao, you can arrange it yourself."
"You both remember the locations of the arms warehouse and grain depot explained by the puppet army, right?"
Li Yunlong's gaze swept over Zhang Dabiao and Lu Yingjun's faces.
The two nodded in unison: "Remember!" ”
The reason for this arrangement was that Li Yunlong was mainly afraid that the devil would blow up the arms depot and burn down the grain depot before he died, and then he would be busy in vain.
Li Yunlong nodded and continued: "The second battalion is responsible for attacking the northern city wall, and the third battalion is responsible for attacking the southern city wall. ”
"Remember, your two battalions are assists, don't fight with the devil as soon as you go up in order to grab the first credit."
"After the first battalion enters the city, your two battalions will launch a general attack and join forces with the first battalion to take the city wall."
Speaking of this, Li Yunlong looked at Sun Desheng, the commander of the cavalry battalion.
"As for the cavalry battalion, move to the east gate and wait for the devils, your cavalry battalion should not show your head, if the devils escape from the east gate, Sun Desheng you know what to do, right?"
As he spoke, Li Yunlong pointed outside the east gate of Yangquan.
Sun Desheng's expression flashed, and he said: "If a devil escapes from the east gate, the head of the regiment, you will screw off my head as a night pot." ”
"All I want is your spiritual head." Li Yunlong said, "As for your head, it's better to keep it, Lao Tzu doesn't need such a big night pot as you." ”
Hahahaha –
When the battalion commanders and company commanders heard this, they couldn't help but laugh together, and even Zhao Gang, who was not smiling, couldn't help but smile.
Revolutionary optimism is an old tradition from the Red Army to the Eighth Route Army.
It's harmless to make some jokes, and it's more lively.
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Zhao Gang couldn't help but nod slightly, Li Yunlong's combat deployment was exactly the strategy of encircling three and one in "Sun Tzu's Art of War".
This means emphasizing the need to leave gaps when encircling the enemy, and in this case, if the enemy is surrounded on all sides, it may prompt the enemy commander to make up his mind to fight to the death.
Conversely, if a gap is deliberately left behind, it can cause the enemy commander to vacillate between flight and death, and at the same time demoralize the enemy soldiers.
More importantly, leaving a gap is not to leave it alone, but to set up an ambush in the place where the enemy must escape, so that the enemy will fall into an ambush circle in the process of hasty escape.
However, Li Yunlong has never read Sun Tzu's Art of War, and he has not even fought a decent city a few times, but he can understand the use of the art of war without a teacher.
A few months ago, the county seat of Qixian was different from this time, last time it was a surprise attack, and this time it was a frontal attack.
Although Zhao Gang has read a lot of military books, if the two of them each lead a unit to fight on the battlefield, they will be played to death by Li Yunlong.
In the original play, Chu Yunfei once commented on Li Yunlong: Li Yunlong has a smart mind, if he has the opportunity to be educated, he will be amazing in the future!
Chu Yunfei, who has always been arrogant, only puts Yan Laoxi and Principal Chang in his eyes, and even he has such a high evaluation of Li Yunlong, which shows that Li Yunlong's tactical command ability is indeed outstanding.
Straight to the point.
With the completion of Li Yunlong's combat deployment.
"Yes!" The battalion and company commanders responded neatly.
"There is still about half an hour to go, and all the units have seized the time to prepare for battle, and have their weapons, ammunition and siege ladders ready."
Looking at the pocket watch in his hand, Li Yunlong added.
……
Half an hour passed quickly, and the devil plane did not come again.
However, the devil planes will not be able to stop the new siege.
On the ground of the Lion Rock and the west city wall of Yangquan Pingchuan, there are more than 100 camouflage nets.
The camouflage nets were scattered, with 12 mountain guns and 37 machine guns scattered and hidden under the camouflage nets.
Unless the devil pilot has a sharp eye, he will never find out which camouflage net is hiding mountain artillery under it.
With a flare in the air, a new regiment of general attacks begins!
The artillerymen had already aimed their guns at the city wall in advance, adjusted the firing elements of the mountain guns, and at the same time as they saw the signal flare, the artillerymen immediately pulled the fire rope.
In the next second, more than a dozen shells with a long screeching sound passed over the attacking troops of the first battalion in front of them, and fell on the walls of the west gate of Yangquan City and the fortifications outside the city.
Within minutes, the fortifications such as pillboxes and turrets outside the city were all destroyed.
Large areas of the city walls were also shrouded in smoke.
When the shelling first began, Zhao Gang was still a little worried, worried that the devil's plane would come to bombard the artillery position.
What Li Yunlong was thinking in his heart was that he hoped that the devil plane would bombard the artillery position.
However, after more than ten minutes, not even a ghost plane appeared in the sky.
In fact, it was not that the devil's plane did not come, but at this time, the captain of the 9th Flying Squadron of the First Army, Ryuichi Kato, was arrested by the gendarmerie on suspicion of lying about the military situation.
However, there are so many camouflage nets on the ground, even if the remaining few devil planes come, they will not be able to speak.
At this time, the Yangquan city wall was finally blasted out of two gaps under the continuous bombardment of armor-piercing shells and grenades fired by 12 mountain guns.
"Comrades!"
"Check your equipment and get ready to attack!"
Xu Yonghai, the commander of the first company, took the MP40 submachine gun from the guard, and then let out a low shout.
The first battalion and one company are the sharp knife company of the new regiment, also called the assault company, and it is also the best company equipped except for the sword squadron.
More than 100 soldiers from a company behind him checked their weapons and ammunition.
Behind the assault company, a battalion of fighters also began to inspect a dozen ladders, which had been prepared long ago and brought from the base areas.
Because even if the mountain cannon can collapse the city wall and blast the wall out of the gap, those piles of rubble and bricks will be piled up in the position of the gap.
It is difficult to climb by people, and this is where a ladder is needed.
Xu Yonghai pulled the bolt of the gun, opened the safe, and took the lead in crossing out from the position where the attack was launched, and the soldiers of more than 100 assault companies behind followed one after another.
