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

A few months ago, Wang Meng arrived in Taihang Mountains and built this place as a permanent base.

After several months of development, the cement in the system was also discounted by 0.1%, and one point could be exchanged for one ton.

Relying on the cement exchanged from the system, Wang Meng built permanent fortifications relying on the Taihang Mountains, and expanded the path into a highway that could be used by cars.

Wang Meng took Li Yunlong on a motorcycle and began to inspect the caves in Taihang Mountains.

Sun Desheng’s tank battalion is hidden in dozens of caves behind Shipo Township.

Once the battle begins, the tanks can quickly follow the road at the foot of Taihang Mountain to support the Third Regiment's battle in the Grand Canyon Town or the Second Regiment's battle in Dongjingling Township, or they can directly rush down the slope and enter the fields of the First Regiment's Shipo Township.

"Report to the commander, the independent column tank battalion is organizing combat formation training!"

"Go on, don't damage your fellow villagers' land!"

"Yes!"

Thirty Tiger tanks first marched in a long line. When they were ten kilometers away from the imaginary enemy, they began to deploy in a line and advance in parallel to take advantage of their firepower.

"Commander, are we going to have a big battle? This time it's our tank battalion's turn!"

"You will have your share of battles to fight. You may need to coordinate with the cavalry company and the reconnaissance battalion's tank infantry. Only their mobility can keep up with your tanks. You should meet up and practice in the next two days."

"Yes!"

The Japanese tanks in Shanxi were used as infantry support weapons to protect the infantry advance, and the tank battalion of the independent column had no chance of a decisive battle with their tanks.

The infantry protected by the Japanese tanks could kill the tanks using incendiary bombs, blasting tubes, and cluster grenades.

Therefore, Sun Desheng's tank battalion must also have infantry support.

Li Yunlong and Wang Meng left Sun Desheng's tank battalion and rode motorcycles to Wang Chengzhu's artillery regiment position.

The artillery regiment prepared three permanent fortifications, also with dozens of holes dug on the Taihang Mountains, behind the first, second and third regiments for easy support.

After the artillery battalion was upgraded to an artillery regiment, the original infantry artillery was given to the infantry regiment, which was equipped with two 105mm howitzer battalions, totaling 60 guns, and one 37mm anti-aircraft gun battalion, totaling 60 guns.

"Commander, the artillery regiment is conducting an anti-aircraft maneuver drill."

"continue!"

60 tractors pulling 60 howitzers quickly entered the cave, and then towed them all out of the cave, maneuvering quickly left and right along the road.

The anti-aircraft guns also turned quickly, aimed at a huge kite in the air, and began shooting and shooting it down.

Li Yunlong and Wang Meng continued their inspection and first arrived at a regiment's position. The 75mm infantry gun and 37mm anti-tank gun were placed in the anti-tank holes and could be pulled out and fired at any time.

Many individual anti-artillery holes were also dug around the trenches.

"Zhang Dabiao, the fortifications are well dug. When the time comes, you and the Third Regiment may face the enemy head-on, so be careful to prevent artillery and air defense!"

"Yes, just wait for the Japs to come and get beaten!"

Li Yunlong planned to go to the Second Battalion and let Wang Meng go to Dongjingling Township alone to face the Second Regiment Commander Shen Quan.

He was always the second in command, Zhang Dabiao ate meat while Shen Quan drank soup. But this time his base was the farthest from the direction of the Japanese attack, so he might not even be able to touch the Japanese hair.

"Chief of Staff, please give us some justice. Is it possible to bully others like this? You make me sit on the bench every day!"

"Captain Shen, stop talking nonsense. You have been on the bench for more than three regiments. Besides, our commander likes to fight positional battles."

Shen Quan was a little confused.

"What do you mean?"

"You can figure it out slowly!"

After Wang Meng finished speaking, he went to check the combat readiness to see if the soldiers had enough ammunition, food and water.

Shen Quan stood there for a minute and finally figured it out. If Li Yunlong didn't fight a positional battle, he would take the initiative to attack. The positions of the first and third regiments were in the front and should not be changed.

Therefore, if there was to be a surprise attack on the Japanese, it would definitely be the mission of his Second Regiment.

"Hahaha, I'm rich!"

It was already evening when Wang Meng returned to the headquarters. He, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were preparing to have a few drinks to relax before the big battle.

Li Yunlong rummaged around in the headquarters for a long time and took out a box of Japanese sake and canned food seized last time, crushed a packet of instant noodles, and fried a plate of peanuts.

"Lao Zhao, Mengzi, this Japanese sake is not very strong. It is not as good as Digua Shao and Fenjiu. But today we will drink the Japanese celebratory wine in advance!"

"it is good!"

After three rounds of drinking, although the sake was not strong, several people were a little tipsy, especially Zhao Gang, who leaned against the kang table with his hand on his forehead.

"Lao Li, pour it for me!"

Li Yunlong was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that this elegant Zhao Gang would swear and drink on his own initiative.

"Nonsense, when has Old Li ever poured wine for anyone? When I drink, I am always served by others. Hehe, but Old Li is happy to pour wine for you two."

Li Yunlong filled Zhao Gang and Wang Meng's wine bowls and was somewhat moved.

"Old Zhao, we used to think that political cadres were just good at talking and we couldn't get along, so we tried every possible means to get rid of you. But later we found out that you, Old Zhao, are really capable. Your individual soldier quality is beyond reproach, and the soldiers are also led by you to cry. I salute you!"

Li Yunlong picked up the wine bowl and clinked it with Zhao Gang, then drank it all in one gulp.

"And Mengzi, if we talk about who I'm most grateful to, it's not my father or my mother, but you, Mengzi. With the weapons and equipment you provided, we are strong and not afraid of anyone. The most important thing is that the lives of the soldiers were saved and the casualties were greatly reduced. Cats have their ways, and dogs have their ways. I won't ask where your weapons come from. As long as they can fight the Japanese, they are good stuff. Have a drink!"

After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he clinked glasses with Wang Meng again and emptied his wine bowl.

While the three of them were not completely drunk yet, they sorted out their thoughts.

Just as Wang Meng expected, Li Yunlong planned to take the initiative and let the Second Regiment, the Reconnaissance Battalion, the Cavalry Company and the Tank Battalion take the initiative to attack and try to destroy the enemy's heavy firepower along the way.

After all, being bombarded doesn't feel good.

After the raid is completed, the second step is to sneak into Pingshun County and carry out sabotage behind enemy lines, preferably by burning their food supplies.

The third part is to confront the enemy head-on. We use howitzers at long distances, and infantry guns and mortars at close range.

What Wang Meng is most worried about now is the enemy planes. Although they have a large number of anti-aircraft artillery units, if the Japanese planes really fight you to death, it will be a bit difficult to cope with.

The next division of labor was: Li Yunlong urged each regiment to build more air-raid shelters while there was still time, Wang Meng replenished ammunition, and Zhao Gang made pre-war mobilization.

The independent column was ambitious, and the brigade commander was also busy. This time the headquarters was determined to teach the Japanese a lesson, so except for the independent regiment, the rest of the 386th Brigade was mobilized.

"Notify all regiments to come to the meeting and work together to wipe out this group of devils!"
