Chapter 376: Ambush!

After everyone left, only Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were left in the regiment headquarters.

"Lao Li, don't you really want to ask your superiors?" Zhao Gang asked.

"There's no need to ask for instructions, we have an indicator of autonomous action in our hands, but we still have to call it."

Li Yunlong said: "When I leave the day after tomorrow, I will call the brigade commander and say that the new regiment will go to Niangziguan to do a side job. ”

"Okay!" Zhao Gang nodded and said.

Three days later.

Afternoon.

A tin train roared into the Jingcheng Railway Station.

At the top of the train, there was a machine-gun emplacement with sandbags, on which were mounted the Type 92 heavy machine gun and the crooked light machine gun.

The train slowly came to a halt as it entered the train station, and the carriage door was pulled open, revealing a dense crowd of devils inside.

The devils took advantage of this effort to quickly jump off the train and move, smoke cigarettes, and go to the toilet to go to the toilet.

After half an hour, the devils finished resting, and the train was filled with coal water, and then it started again, leaving the train station and heading for Shanxi.

In an inconspicuous small earthen bag, Li Changshun took a sword team member to see all this.

Immediately, Li Changshun took out the radio intercom and called: "Dong Yu, Dong Yu, I am Dong Liang!" ”

After calling three times in a row, Li Yunlong's voice came from the earpiece: "I'm Dong Mi." ”

Li Chang said by the way: "The snake has been dispatched, the snake has been dispatched." ”

"Roger!" Li Yunlong said, "Dong Liang, I order you to evacuate immediately!" ”

"Yes!" Li Changshun put down the receiver microphone and then turned off the radio intercom, and whispered to the team members next to him, "Withdraw!" ”

It didn't take long for the figures of the two to quickly disappear into the dirt bag.

At this time, in the command compartment of the train.

Isamu Yamamoto, the co-captain of the 62nd Wing, was leisurely drinking coffee.

Fumio Katayama, a staff officer sitting opposite, was drinking tea.

Isamu Yamamoto had the experience of studying in the West when he was young, so he liked to drink coffee, put hairspray on his head, and combed his hair meticulously on his big back.

Fumio Katayama couldn't help but ask: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, I heard that our 21st Division, this time we went to Shanxi to attack the Eighth Road?" ”

"That's right!" Yong Yamamoto put down the cup and said, "This time I went to Shanxi, it was to attack the Eighth Road. ”

The plan of the Japanese army to attack Zhongtiao Mountain is currently only qualified to know at the level of division commander and above.

Even the propaganda department of the Japanese army was publicizing that the Japanese army was about to launch a retaliatory action against the Eighth Route Army.

Except for the officers above the division commander, the devils all believed that it was necessary to use troops on a large scale against the Eighth Route Army.

After a pause, Yamamoto Yong said again: "My eldest brother Yamamoto Kazuki, is a red man next to the commander of the First Army Shinozuka, he called me and told me that last time the First Army dispatched 4 divisions to sweep the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Jin, the Imperial Army was defeated, the 2nd Guards Division and the 37th Division were severely damaged, and more than 20,000 Imperial Army warriors were broken. ”

Fumio Katayama couldn't help but gasp when he heard this, and his eyes widened: "The losses are so big, no wonder the above has to send troops to attack the Eighth Route Army." ”

Although the propaganda department of the Japanese army publicized to the outside world, the Japanese army only suffered a few thousand casualties.

However, some well-informed Japanese officers already knew the real situation and talked about it in private.

Yamamoto snorted coldly, leaned back in his chair, and said in an unruly tone: "If you want me to say, Commander Shinozuka and Commander Tada make a big fuss, and our 62nd Wing can penetrate any base area on the Eighth Road." ”

Fumio Katayama was taken aback by Isamu Yamamoto's words, and looked left and right: "Your Excellency, Captain, don't dare to say this." ”

"What can't be said about this?" Yamamoto snorted coldly, "Katayama-kun, there are just two of us here, we can talk freely." ”

Fumio Katayama said: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, even the 2nd Guards Division and the 37th Division have been severely damaged, can we do it with one wing?" ”

At this time, Fumio Katayama knew why his eldest brother Kazuki Yamamoto was going to call Isamu Yamamoto.

Isamu Yamamoto has always been arrogant, and when Fumio Katayama said this, he was also reminding him not to underestimate the enemy.

Yamamoto said: "The 2nd Guards Division seems to be the guard of His Majesty the Emperor, but in fact, it has never been on the battlefield in Japan, and the soldiers have no combat experience. ”

"Such soldiers, no matter how numerous and well-equipped, are just a flock of sheep."

"Although the 37th Division is the elite of the First Army, in the past few years in Jinnan, it has been fighting with the Imperial Allied Army, and the soldiers have long been corrupted, and the combat effectiveness has declined seriously."

"In this way, it is not surprising that the 37th Division and the 2nd Guards Division have been severely damaged."

"That being said." Fumio Katayama said, "Your Excellency Wing Commander, we still don't underestimate the enemy, the Eighth Route can severely damage the two divisions of the Imperial Army, which shows that the strength is still very strong." ”

"Katayama-kun, I don't need you to remind me." Isamu Yamamoto said coldly, "I don't need you to teach me how to fight. ”

"Captain, I didn't mean that..."

Fumio Katayama hurriedly explained.

……

Meanwhile.

It is 5 kilometers away from the Longwang convex section of the Zhengtai Railway.

Li Yunlong led a new regiment and was rapidly approaching the railway.

The fighters of the Sword Squadron sent by Lu Yingjun reconnoitred the pattern of the devil patrol in advance.

Occasionally, devil planes in the sky were conducting reconnaissance along the railway.

In order not to be discovered by the devil plane, he could only enter the ambush position at the time point.

Since the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, the Zhengtai Railway and the strongholds and artillery towers on both sides of the railway were destroyed by the Eighth Route Army.

Although the devils have repaired the Zhengtai Railway again, most of the turrets and strongholds have not been repaired.

It took about half an hour for Li Yunlong to lead the soldiers to the ambush site.

It is 6 kilometers away from Niangziguan and about 26 kilometers away from Jingcheng County.

Moreover, the railroad track here is a long uphill section, and the speed of the Devil Army will be slower here, and the terrain is very tricky, which is very suitable for ambushes.

This position was personally chosen by the brigade commander.

The 4th Battalion and the County Brigade, which were responsible for the blockade, had already gone to their designated positions.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang found a higher terrain as their headquarters.

As soon as a small detachment of devil patrols passed, the second battalion jumped up from the dirt slope of the ambush position and touched the opposite position.

The soldiers of the engineer company also took advantage of this opportunity to plant explosives on the railway and disguise themselves.

Explosives are still detonated by detonators modified from telephones.

In the command headquarters at the commanding heights, the guards set up artillery mirrors.

On the side, Zhao Gang had already set up his large-caliber sniper rifle, ready to hunt down the devil officer at any time.

Li Yunlong glanced at it enviously, then his eyes came to the periscope and looked down through the field of vision of the artillery mirror.

The 1st Battalion, the 2nd Battalion and the Heavy Machine Gun Battalion were already in ambush on both sides, and the fighters of the engineer company were busy burying explosives.

Since the scouts on both sides are carrying walkie-talkies, if a devil patrol comes over, they will use walkie-talkies to notify the engineer company to retreat as soon as possible.

After planting the explosives, the engineering company immediately retreated to the rear of the position.

Li Yunlong raised his hand and looked at his watch, everything was ready, just waiting for the devil train to enter the ambush circle!
