Bright Sword: Leading the Special Operations Squadron to Fight the Japs

The independent regiment set up heavy machine guns under the artillery fire.

Li Yunlong saw another heavy machine gun being overturned and he punched the wall in anger.

Fortunately, these shells did not discriminate people, some hit the independent regiment, and some hit the Japanese themselves. Both the enemy and us suffered losses.

The Japanese artillery fire finally stopped. The Japanese soldiers saw that the independent regiment's artillery fire did not seem as fierce as the day before, and they said in their hearts: Colonel Katayama never lied to me.

But they regretted it the next second.

The huge German tumors that were everywhere were as worthless as white radishes. They flew over their heads like locusts, with an average killing radius of 5-8 meters. They were like sickles harvesting the Japanese troops in the pile.

The lucky Japanese soldiers were not killed in the explosion, but before they could rejoice, they were killed with their chests bearing down on hundreds of light and heavy machine guns from the first and second battalions.

The light machine gun was fine, leaving several holes in the soldier's body. But the heavy machine gun was not so heartwarming, the unfortunate soldier was cut in half, with his intestines spilling all over the floor.

Seeing the Japanese soldiers all over the mountains, the special forces also got involved, carrying 95 automatic rifles to "check for deficiencies and fill in the gaps" everywhere.

"Captain, it seems the Japs left no reserve troops. They are all coming forward. The pressure on the front line is very high!"

Li Yunlong picked up a large knife.

"Order the third battalion to join the battle, and the entire regiment to prepare for hand-to-hand combat!"

Once the hundreds of people from the Third Battalion got involved, the Japanese advance slowed down immediately, but they still collided with the Independent Regiment by stepping on corpses.

When Wang Meng was training the independent regiment, he never neglected the three major subjects of assassination, grenade throwing and shooting. Therefore, his assassination skills improved a lot compared to before, and he was basically able to fight on equal terms with the Japanese.

Each company also had an officer equipped with a mirrored box, who was also playing whack-a-mole with an automatic weapon.

The Japanese lines were still loose, and Li Yunlong saw that it was almost time, so he ordered the signal flares to be fired.

The sound of rumbling horse hooves came from the flank of the position. Sun Desheng led the cavalry company and rushed into the group of Japanese soldiers, waving sabers. They were like a bloody wind, leaving behind the remains of Japanese soldiers wherever they went.

Sun Desheng's cavalry company charged back and forth three times, completely breaking the Japanese's psychological defenses and becoming the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Finally, the Japanese began to retreat.

The North China Front Army sent an order that the Eighth Route Army headquarters had been moved and Dushan no longer had any strategic value, so Colonel Katayama began to consider retreating.

"386th Brigade Independent Regiment! Li Yunlong!"

Katayama chopped the table in half with a knife, uttered some vicious words, and gathered his remaining troops to prepare for retreat.

Don't chase poor bandits.

Although the independent regiment was not seriously injured in this battle, its ammunition was almost exhausted. In addition, the headquarters also sent an order for the independent regiment to withdraw from the battle and move towards the base.

In the Dushan battle, the independent regiment lost more than 300 soldiers, killed more than 1400 enemies, and seized countless supplies.

The independent regiment quickly cleaned up the battlefield and moved to the rear.

Along the way, Li Yunlong pulled Wang Meng and begged him to get him some heavy artillery.

"Brother Wang Meng, although we fought beautifully this time, you can see that many soldiers were sacrificed. I analyzed it and found only one reason: insufficient firepower! If I had dozens of mountain cannons, I could have just fired at them. Why did I let the Japanese get close to me?"

I've been fighting these past two days and haven't opened the handheld terminal yet, so I don't know if I've unlocked the artillery's arsenal, but it should be about the same.

"Captain, I can get artillery and tanks, but we are short of people. We have worked hard to train dozens of car drivers and gunners, but our soldiers are not well educated and our progress is too slow."

Although Li Yunlong is usually not interested in intellectuals, artillerymen, car drivers, and even tank drivers are all technical jobs, unlike infantrymen who only need to pull the bolt.

Cats have cat lanes, rats have rat lanes.

"Brother, can a living person be killed by holding his urine? Just get it. I, Old Li, will hire a few hundred literate people for you even if I have to sacrifice my reputation."

"Okay, it's a deal! By the way, Commander, I've been thinking about expanding the size of the special operations team recently. I want to take some of the soldiers in the special operations team and make them instructors."

"Okay! Tell me what you want, and then we'll go find the brigade commander together. If that doesn't work, we'll go find the boss!"

Although no special forces soldiers have been killed yet, the more brutal the battle, the more likely they are to die. These soldiers are precious, and the advanced weapons and equipment will be waiting for them to operate.

When Wang Meng arrived at the independent regiment's new base, he couldn't wait to open the handheld terminal.

He was surprised to find that he had unlocked the intermediate arsenal, which included mortars, infantry guns, mountain guns, anti-tank guns, armored vehicles, and tanks.

Moreover, he found that after unlocking a new weapons depot, the system gave him 1 points, and now he has a total of points. In addition, all the firearms in the primary weapons depot are % off, and the Mauser rifle that used to cost point can now be directly exchanged for rifles.

150 mm infantry gun 20 points;

75mm light infantry gun: 15 points;

37mm anti-tank gun: 10 points;

81mm mortar: 10 points;

50mm mortar: 5 points;

There are ten shells of various types at 1 point.

In addition, the Type 95 automatic rifle and Type 92 pistol are also unlocked.

"Hahaha, we've made a fortune, so let's get all the German equipment!"

The independent regiment set up by Wang Meng was composed of three infantry battalions, an anti-tank company, an artillery company, a cavalry company, a transport company, a special operations team, a medical company, and a communications company.

Anti-tank company equipment:

Twelve 37mm anti-tank guns, each with 180 rounds of ammunition.

Four MG34 light machine guns, each with 1000 rounds of ammunition.

Artillery battery equipment:

Four 150mm infantry guns, each with 40 rounds of ammunition.

Twelve 75mm light infantry guns, each with 120 rounds.

Four ammunition trucks and 15 tractors.

Transport company equipment:

50 trucks.

Infantry battalion equipment:

There are 6 infantry companies, each equipped with twelve light machine guns, four anti-tank guns, and six 50mm mortars.

A heavy machine gun company, equipped with 6 heavy machine guns and twelve 81mm mortars.

One infantry artillery battery, eight 75mm light infantry guns.

满打满算下来，一个步兵团有150毫米步兵炮4门、75毫米轻型步兵炮36门、37毫米战防炮12门、81毫米迫击炮36门、50毫米迫击炮118门。

Wang Meng handed the organized artillery equipment to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong's eyes were dazzled by what he saw. If all these equipments were in place, he would not change them even if he was given the title of division commander. Moreover, there were some newer individual equipments, such as MP40 submachine guns for squad leaders, which greatly enhanced the firepower of the infantry squad.

"Brother Wang Meng, you are not trying to make our Old Li happy, are you?"

Wang Meng snatched the paper from Li Yunlong's hand and put it in his arms.

"Captain, I say the same thing again. I can get the equipment, but you must ensure that there are people to operate it, otherwise it will all be junk."

"No problem! Get some for me first. They can be used as teaching aids. We can also exchange them for the rifles we captured."

Wang Meng was also not vague. He spent 150 points that day to exchange for 300 MP40 submachine guns, which were replaced for each squad leader, signalman, and service personnel directly under the regiment headquarters.

The next day, Li Yunlong loaded the captured Type 38 rifles and the Japanese weapons onto the car.

"Wang Meng, come with me!"
