Chapter 212: The Allied Army Fights Fiercely in Sanyuan
Yu Chenglong felt in his heart that such a big action was still a bit risky, but Commander-in-Chief Yang, General Political Commissar Qin Gang and the headquarters had already made a decision, he could not oppose it, and he had to obey the order.
But the suggestions and ideas still have to be put forward, he hopes that after the team takes the county seat of Sanyuan, they will quickly seize the strategic materials of the little devil, and then retreat immediately, because now the Manbei General Army does not have the conditions to occupy the county seat.
"Your suggestion will be seriously considered. However, the battle plan cannot be changed, this is approved by the higher authorities, and it is also the instructions of the higher authorities, and we must resolutely implement it.
After the battle began, the reinforcement teams on both sides should be in constant contact with the general headquarters and should not retreat without receiving orders. Let's split up now, and I wish us a victory! ”
General Political Commissar Qin Gang did not answer Jackie Chan's suggestion directly, but directly asked the commanders present to immediately go back to the team to carry out the order, which made everyone stand and salute.
"Obey the command, obey the order, and resolutely fight this battle!"
The meeting ended, and Yu Chenglong immediately returned to the team, conveyed the order of the headquarters, made a pre-war mobilization, and then led the team to the direction of Sifangtai.
When we got close to the square platform, it was getting dark. Yu Jackie Chan ordered the team to rest and eat in place. He and Deputy Captain Li and others went to Sifangtai to reconnoiter the terrain.
This square platform is a large mound that abruptly emerges on the plain, the south slope is steeper, the north slope is gentle, it is an irregular square, the top is flat, and it is covered with artemisia and artemisia grass, so it is called the square platform.
Near the south side of Sifangtai, there is a large road running east-west, and in the westward direction of the road is a larger village, five or six miles away from Sifangtai.
The quadrangle is surrounded by dense crop fields, which are now completely covered and easily concealed and retreated. If you use it well, you can completely inflict heavy damage on the enemy.
After reconnoitering the terrain, Yu Chenglong ordered Deputy Captain Li to take 40 people to build fortifications on the Sifang Platform, preparing to block the enemy from the front.
Director Xunyang was sent to take 20 men to hide in the crops on the south side of the road, and once the frontal resistance was broken, he would lead the team to rush onto the road and intercept the enemy.
Ordered Squadron Leader Fang to take 20 people to hide in the crop field east of Sifang Terrace, as a reserve to support Deputy Captain Li and them at any time.
Yu Chenglong himself led twenty people to hide in the crops west of Sifangtai, preparing to attack the enemy from behind, and completely defeat the devil team who came to reinforce Sanyuan County.
The arrangements were ready, and Yu Jackie Chan ordered the team to set off in the dark. In the northeast corner, four miles away from the Sifang Terrace, the horses are gathered in a depression to graze.
Then he ordered his brothers to climb the square platform and build fortifications with Captain Li and them. After midnight, he asked his brothers to finish the dry food they had brought with them, and then each of them led people into a pre-arranged position.
The sun has risen, and the road is silent. The signal corps of the headquarters came to report that the battle to capture the city of Mihara had started as planned and was going well from the beginning.
The teams that surrounded and attacked on all sides basically entered the city and were advancing into the city, and the resistance encountered was not great, and it was estimated that they could take the county seat of Sanyuan as planned.
The commander-in-chief ordered the two brigades tasked with blocking the attack to closely monitor the enemy's situation, be ready to fight off the devil's reinforcements at any time.
No one is allowed to retreat until the order to retreat is given at headquarters, and it is necessary to hold on at all costs. Even if you encounter trouble, you must overcome the difficulties and persist until after the order from the headquarters is issued.
Towards noon, the sentinels sent out ran back to report that the little devil had indeed sent reinforcements and was about to arrive in front of our position.
Yu Chengchan ordered all the hidden teams to immediately prepare for battle and meet the Japanese devils who came to reinforce them. At all costs, we must never let go of a single soldier and block the reinforced devils to the west of the position.
In front were three cars, full of about fifty or sixty devils, with machine guns and small cannons on them, and behind were the Manchurian army, following on horseback. Along the avenue south of Sifangtai, from west to east to support Mihara County.
Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to Sifangtai, the speed of the devil's car slowed down, first, waiting for the Manchurian Army behind, and secondly, being wary of the terrain of Sifangtai.
After all, this quadrangular platform is an ideal hiding place for reinforcements along the way, and it is normal for a little devil with military literacy to be wary of this place.
When approaching the Sifangtai, the devil used a machine gun to shoot at the Sifangtai indiscriminately for a while, and when he saw that there was no movement, he did not see anything abnormal, and the Manchurian army behind also followed, so he walked forward with confidence.
With the explosion of a grenade, the devil's three cars were paralyzed in place, unable to move. A few devils died on the spot, and the rest of the devils jumped out of the car one after another.
Unexpectedly, there was really an ambush, the commander of the little devil immediately ordered the personnel to jump out of the car, and soon organized a counterattack, most of the little devils took advantage of the cover of the car to shoot at the square platform.
The Manchurian troops who came behind also dismounted one after another, hid on the side of the avenue on the south side of the road and fired at the Sifangtai. There was another violent explosion of grenades, and the devils hiding under the car were killed and wounded.
Seeing that the firepower was very fierce, the devils in front immediately retreated, retreated to a certain distance, set up steel cannons, fired at the Sifangtai position, and forced the Manchurian army behind to charge forward.
The Sifangtai position was under artillery fire, and some brothers died in the artillery fire! After repelling an attack by the Manchurian army, the second round of artillery fire from the little devils bombarded again.
The gunfire on the quadrangle platform was obviously weakened, and even the grenades that had been more effective before were sparse at this time, and at this time, the Manchurian army's offensive began frantically.
When Yu Chenglong saw that the opportunity had come, he shouted, rushed out of the crop field with twenty brothers, and the two machine guns opened the way, rushing straight to the little devil and the attacking Manchurian army.
The devils were a little overwhelmed by this sudden attack, and immediately withdrew in the direction of the village in the south of the road, and the Manchurian army also withdrew and ran in the direction of the village together.
And Yu Chengchan did not lead people to chase after him, but blew up the cannon discarded by the devil and led the people to retreat to the crops, but also killed and injured six or seven brothers.
After careful observation for a while, the little devil still didn't move, so Yu Chenglong took the team back to the Sifang Platform and met with Deputy Captain Li.
The number of people was counted, and more than a dozen people were injured and more than a dozen were killed in both teams. Yu Chenglong asked the injured brother to withdraw to the place where the horses were put first, and waited to retreat together.
He and Deputy Captain Li led less than 40 people and continued to hold the position in Sifangtai. Yu Chenglong knew that the little devil would not give up and would definitely organize a more fierce attack again.
