Chapter 37: The Devil Runs Away

Returning to the time and space of the bright sword again, it was already a month later, and before Wang Yue came over, he felt that something was wrong, Li Yunlong, this guy, was not in Laojun Mountain, not in Yang Village, he was actually lying in the hospital of the Eighth Route Army, if he didn't see this guy still secretly drinking, Wang Yue was worried about whether his great cause of crossing was over, you must know that Wang Yue's so-called system was anchored to Li Yunlong, if this guy had three long and two short, he wouldn't be able to cross.

Didn't bother to find a place, after making sure that there was no abnormality near the old kiln, Wang Yue came over, no way, the eastern part of the Eighth Route Army was transferred, and within the current teleportation range, this is already the most marginal, and he can't get too close to the core of the base area, so he can only put it here, there are a lot of things, Wang Yue had to go back and forth many times, and it took a whole day to finally move the materials, no way, even if the system space is upgraded, he still can't get rid of his hard work.

50 sets of small oil refining equipment (another 50 sets were requisitioned)

Wang Yue originally wanted to add a little other weapons, but considering his messy weapon caliber, he had to dispel this idea, if the follow-up Eighth Route Army lacked anything, it was a big deal that he would find a way to solve it, if he added a few more calibers, it was estimated that Zhang Wanhe would collapse on the spot.

I tried to contact the 1000 regiment, and I was able to get through at once, but it was not Li Yunlong, nor Kong Jie, but Zhao Gang guarding the radio, obviously, Li Yunlong had already arranged the contact with Wang Yue before entering the hospital.

The last time he was in the Huting stronghold, Zhao Gang was already shocked enough, but this time, the materials brought by Wang Yue were several times as many as the last time, and there were tens of thousands of tons of canned food, which made Zhao Gang, who had always believed in materialism, look at Wang Yue with the wrong eyes.

Yang Village, there are still several kilometers away from the periphery of the base area, there are several 1000 regiment sentry posts, you can do it, you can get so many supplies at once, it is simply a naked slap in the face and provocation, but there is no way, the brigade commander and Lao Li have explained, Zhao Gang must press his curiosity.

Through the communication with Zhao Gang, Wang Yue can figure out what happened.

Just an hour after he left, the Yamamoto special forces who had not seen each other for a long time still appeared on the battlefield of Laojun Mountain, under the cover of night, the agents of the Yamamoto special forces infiltrated the defense line of our army from the back mountain of Laojun Mountain under the guidance of the hidden agents, and rushed straight to the front headquarters of the 386 Brigade.

Even so, the commander of the 772nd Regiment Cheng who was in the command headquarters was also blocked by more than a dozen little devils in the command center, and a fierce exchange of fire broke out on both sides.

After taking stock of the losses, the staff officers and civilian cadres of the 386 Brigade Headquarters sacrificed 38 people, the commander of the 772 Regiment Cheng was shot several times and was seriously injured and fell into a coma, all 56 people from the Lynx of Heiyunzhai were killed, and almost all the remaining people were wounded, the radio, telephone, and simple exchange of the 386 Brigade Headquarters were all damaged, and a large number of confidential documents and personnel were lost, so that Brigade Commander Chen of the 386 Brigade had to temporarily transfer the command of some troops to the headquarters.

At this time, the big guy figured out why Tadao Yoshizawa asked the Heyuan County Special Service Team to attack in a hurry, just to confuse the Eighth Route Army and make the Eighth Route Army think that the devil's dark line methods had been exhausted, so as to cover the next actions of the Yamamoto Special Team.

The commander of the 772nd Regiment lost almost half of the commanding cadres, although the commander of the regiment Cheng was rescued, but he could not wake up in a short time, the brigade commander was helpless, and the firing line promoted Kong Jie to temporarily replace the commander of the 772nd Regiment and take over the main position of Laojun Mountain, while Li Yunlong's regiment withdrew from Laojun Mountain to rest and recuperate, as the general reserve of the 386 Brigade, ready for the final general attack.

At this time, the 386 Brigade of the Eighth Route Army and the troops of the first column of the Death Squad have formed an encirclement of the independent mixed third brigade, if you count the troops of the Jin Sui Army, at this time the headquarters of Lieutenant General Yoshizawa Tadao has been surrounded by more than 100,000 large regiments, and at this time, the Japanese puppet army in his hands is only more than 30,000 people, and the Japanese puppet army is exhausted by the continuous battle, and there are signs of insufficient ammunition supply, with the tightening of the encirclement, the end of Lieutenant General Yoshizawa Tadao seems to be doomed.

At this time, some newspapers in Chongqing had already begun to publicize the great battle in the northwest of Shanxi, and the Eighth Route Army of the Jin Sui Army mobilized more than 200,000 troops to launch a counteroffensive against the Japanese army throughout the entire Jin Province, and even surrounded the Japanese puppet army of more than 30,000 people in the Heyuan County area of the northwest of Shanxi, which seemed to annihilate this enemy and achieved the greatest victory in Jin Province and even North China in recent years.

But on the second day, the situation of the war still changed dramatically, the planes put into the devil's air force increased several times at once, according to the information from the anti-war alliance, the devil from Beiping, Tianjin, Qingdao, Jinan and other cities transferred almost all of the air force to Taiyuan, and through the southern route transport channel will also transport a large number of ammunition and aviation materials to Taiyuan, the devil's air force confidence is enough at once, in the end, even the Kwantung Army air force has sent bombers, three Type 92 heavy bombers, With a huge group of thirty medium-sized bombers, it brought great coercion to the troops of the Eighth Route Army around Laojun Mountain.

In order to reduce the pressure of the devil's air force, the Eighth Route Army troops began to smoke in the vicinity of Laojun Mountain in accordance with the plan, covering the battlefield with heavy smoke, and almost as expected, the devil plane could not find the target and withdrew, but within a few hours, the devil's bomber returned, and with the help of the guidance of the devil on the ground, they bombed the ground according to the reconnaissance photos in the early stage, but it was different from before, this time the devil used an incendiary bomb.

Jin Province in spring was very dry, and there was still wind that day, in this case, the fire quickly spread, and our army hidden in the dense forests around Laojun Mountain was also affected.

In this case, all the troops continued to endure and waited for the general attack order of the headquarters, and the encirclement around the independent mixed third brigade was still shrinking little by little, but in the evening of the same day, the aviation of the Kwantung Army appeared again, and it was different from the previous time, this time the target of the devil was Daxiawan, where the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army was located.

Although the headquarters organs were warned and evacuated in time, the intensive bombardment of the devils still caused huge losses to the Eighth Route Army, and the most important thing was that the communication between the headquarters and the front line was interrupted for almost three hours during this period.

Taking advantage of this window, the independent mixed third brigade launched a counteroffensive, but the target was not Laojun Mountain, Lieutenant General Yoshizawa Tadao concentrated more than 5,000 elites, 10,000 imperial troops, under the cover of aviation and tank troops, launched a fierce attack on the 771 regiment between Heyuan County and Ping'an County, in the face of the superior devil troops, the 771 regiment had to retreat in the direction of Ping'an County, until it was near the three ditches to stabilize the defensive line, at this time it was completely dark, and the devil's aviation had to withdraw.

Seeing that he couldn't push it anymore, Lieutenant General Yoshizawa Tadao used poison gas bombs without the slightest hesitation, in order to take Laojun Mountain a few days ago, he didn't use this thing less, and he was about to empty the warehouse of Taiyuan, at this time, he naturally had a lot of poison gas bombs in his hand, and he smashed a ton of mustard gas shells on the position of the 771st regiment.

The 771st Regiment's newly stabilized defensive line was soon loosened under the shroud of poisonous gas, Yoshizawa Tadao concentrated the artillery in his hand again, and came another ten-minute artillery attack, the field fortifications temporarily constructed by the Eighth Route Army could not hold up under this double blow, and seeing that the devil's infantry was coming up, Commander Yang had to order the troops to withdraw from the Sandaogou position, so far, the road to Ping'an County of the Independent Mixed Third Brigade seemed to be open.

Moreover, the devil's cavalry brigade also bit the 771 regiment, if it goes on like this, the 771 regiment will not say retreat, it is likely to be eaten by the devil, as for retreating into the mountains, in the absence of an order from the headquarters, Commander Yang will definitely not do it, that is no different from escaping from the battle, but at this time, the command system of the Eighth Route Army has been temporarily paralyzed.

At the critical moment, Ding Wei's new regiment appeared in time, built a position in Erdaogou, which was only three kilometers away from Ping'an County, stopped the devil, and took over the 771st regiment.

But just when the devil's side completed the deployment and was ready to repeat the old tricks, they suddenly found that the new regiment and the 771st regiment in front of them suddenly disappeared, and it turned out that the command system of the Eighth Route Army had been restored at this time, and the boss ordered the two regiments to quickly break away from contact with the devils, bypass Ping'an County, and strengthen the defense line of the first column of the peripheral death squad.

At this time, there should be more than 5,000 devils here in Heyuan County, more than 10,000 imperial army, and all departments are ready for a vicious battle, but when the fight started, the Eighth Route Army noticed that something was wrong, bullshit devils, more than 15,000 people were like a piece of tofu, and they couldn't help fighting at all.

Several of Li Yunlong's tanks rushed out as if they were surrendered, and the "devils" of the Imperial Allied Army along the way surrendered, and only a few officers resisted stubbornly, but they were soon subdued by those Imperial Allied Army.

After interrogating a few prisoners, Li Yunlong finally figured out what was going on, it turned out that in the more than 15,000 puppet troops here, there were only a few hundred real little devils, as for the rest of the devils, they had already changed into the military uniforms of the Imperial Cooperative Army, and followed Lieutenant General Tadao Yoshizawa to attack the 771st Regiment, and the devils took away almost all the technical weapons and ammunition, as for the Imperial Cooperative Army, they took away the most stubborn batch, and even the poor heavy weapons in the hands of the Imperial Cooperative Army were also taken away, The rest of the Imperial Association army didn't even have many good rifles in their hands, so naturally they couldn't resist, and they weren't stupid.

Brigade Commander Chen also encountered this situation for the first time, the devil took the initiative to retreat, and he made such a come, shouldn't he defend to the last person? Isn't it supposed to bloom in the center? As a result, you left the Imperial Alliance Army and ran away by yourself, aren't you ashamed? What about the honor of the Imperial Army? What about the dignity of the empire?

The Eighth Route Army naturally did not know that after analyzing the battlefield situation, Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka found that he did not have the strength to completely annihilate the hundreds of thousands of Eighth Route Army and Jin Sui Army around Heyuan County, and tried several times to support the independent mixed third brigade, but it was unsuccessful, and the Eighth Route Army not only sent heavy troops to block his reinforcements, but also launched a large-scale sabotage war in the entire Jin Province.

According to the statistics of the intelligence department, the Eighth Route Army invested at least 500 small-caliber mortars, and the Yangquan garrison captured one, which was actually an M35 mortar that could be fired directly at by the noodle country.

After hesitating again and again, the North China Dispatch Army directly ordered the independent mixed third brigade to break through, which led to the previous scale of luxurious bombing, it is said that even the local area has inquired about this matter, and the military department has repeatedly reiterated that a brigade must not be allowed to be completely annihilated, and it is because of this that Yoshizawa Tadao had to lead his troops to break through, which made Lieutenant General Yoshizawa, who has always been very conceited, feel very ashamed.

In the devil's opinion, if you throw more than 10,000 Imperial Allied troops to the Eighth Route Army, and give you all the county towns of Heyuan, this matter should be over, after all, compared with the Imperial Army, the Eighth Route Army has less capital here, even if you have superior artillery fire? It's not that they don't dare to easily engage in an artillery battle with the Imperial Army, not to mention the lack of shells, but also worry about the aviation of the Imperial Army.

But Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka was really wishful thinking this time, after occupying Heyuan County, the 386th Brigade and the Death Squad did not stop, and immediately pressed towards Ping'an County, and directly blocked more than 15,000 devils under Yoshizawa Tadao in Ping'an County, and the 36th Division of the Japanese Army, which was responsible for the response, had to stop because of the endless attacks and harassment of the Eighth Route Army, they were not worried, as long as it was dawn, the aviation of the Imperial Army would solve all problems.

At about four o'clock the next morning, when the sky was about to dawn, the Eighth Route Army finally took action against the devil's air force, and the agents of the Social Department assisted the artillery of the Eighth Route Army headquarters to dismantle a Type 92 infantry gun, disperse and transport it to the vicinity of Taiyuan, and then approached the airport in concealment, and shelled the Taiyuan airport by taking advantage of the opportunity of the devil's overhaul and refueling in the morning.

I have to say that this timing is very delicate, if it is usual, they have 12 shells for one cannon, even if there are results, it will not be too much, the airport is too big, and 12 shells are not a big deal at all, but this time it is different, a large number of devil aviation troops gathered at Taiyuan Airport, and there are so many aviation materials, ammunition and fuel that the warehouse can't put it, just these dozen shells accurately hit the high-octane fuel that the devil stacked on the airport runway, which instantly caused a violent chain reaction. For a moment, it was as if the entire airport was shrouded in flames.

I have to say that the quality of the devil's ground handling during this period is really good, and a large number of aviation materials and aircraft have been rescued in this situation. But even so, the airport was useless, especially those large planes, which could not take off at all, and the air pressure faced by the Eighth Route Army plummeted.

Of course, everything came at a price, in order to shoot all the shells, two artillerymen from the headquarters, four members of the martial arts team all died, but at the last moment before the sacrifice, they still threw a grenade into the chamber.

Some people always say that it is unrealistic to use a grenade to break the barrel, but he does not know that artillery is a precision weapon, and a grenade is enough to destroy all the artillery mechanisms near the bolt, even if it only damages the inner wall of the gun chamber, it will cause the gun to explode when firing.

is different from Li Yunlong's attack on Ping'an County in the TV series, this time the Eighth Route Army is very rich, 70mm guns, 75mm guns, 122mm guns, there are more than 20 guns, although there are not many shells left, but compared to the independent mixed third brigade that has been fighting for days, it is still much richer, and it took a moment to seize the position outside the city, completely compressing the devil in the city, counting the local Japanese puppet army in Ping'an County, there are still more than 15,000 people, cowering in Ping'an County, Almost every shell can harvest a lot of little devils.

This is the case, and Wang Yue also felt that this independent mixed third brigade must be finished, but he never thought that the troops responsible for blocking the 36th Division went wrong, and Qian Bojun's troops of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army who participated in the operation defected in front of the formation, causing the entire 358th Regiment's front to collapse, and the 36th Division tore open the hole at once and killed Ping'an County.

The unwilling Brigade Commander Chen stormed Ping'an County, smashed all the shells in his hand, and even Li Yunlong personally led the few remaining tank troops into Ping'an County, trying to seize the military police headquarters and annihilate the entire independent mixed third brigade, this is not the Eighth Route Army's self-defeat, you must know that when Li Yunlong rushed into the city, Ping'an County has already had three city gates taken by our army, 771 Regiment, 772 Regiment, New First Regiment, and the Death Squad all have strong troops breaking into the city, and the two armies have been mixed together. Even the devil aviation in the sky had to give up support for the ground forces, there was no way, they couldn't fire at their own people, right?

However, the strength of the Japanese puppet army was too strong, and the two sides fought fiercely for a whole morning, even though the Eighth Route Army occupied half of the county, but the devil still did not collapse at all, and even organized several brigade-scale counteroffensives, seeing that the 36th Division was getting closer and closer to Ping'an County, the headquarters ordered that the various divisions alternately cover and withdraw from the battle, and Li Yunlong was injured when the large army led the tank troops to counterattack.

In the end, the 3rd Brigade and the 4th Brigade were independently mixed, with a total of more than 4,000 people rescued by the 36th Division, and although the Eighth Route Army achieved the dazzling record of annihilating more than 7,000 Japanese troops and annihilating more than 25,000 people of the Imperial Allied Army, it did not complete the set goal of annihilating the devils and forming the 3rd Brigade independently.

The Eighth Route Army's Jin Sui Army also lost nearly 20,000 people in this battle, and the Eighth Route Army also put in the heavy artillery units and tank units that had been built up with great difficulty. After the war, there were only two CV-33 tanks left in the tank battalion of the headquarters, and only one No. 1 tank was left on Lin Yunlong's side.

There were only four 75 guns and one 122mm howitzer left in the artillery regiment of the headquarters, and there was not a single shell left, and Li Yunlong's side was even worse, in order to take the county seat of Ping'an, this guy pushed the artillery into the city, and shot directly at the devils, and in the end, they all folded in, and they didn't even drag one out, the only thing to be thankful for was that Wang Chengzhu withdrew most of the artillery.
