Bright Sword: The brigade commander is shocked! You call this a county brigade?

After listening to Li Yunlong's words, Zhang Dabiao showed a trace of worry on his face.

"Captain, the headquarters hasn't called yet. We have no idea what their current situation is."

Li Yunlong said to Zhang Dabiao: "Zhang Dabiao, the order from the headquarters has not been issued yet, but we must hold our ground. Even if my New 1st Regiment is wiped out, as long as the headquarters can retreat safely, it will all be worth it."

"Yes, leader!"

Li Yunlong asked Zhang Dabiao again: "Zhang Dabiao, do you know which unit the Japanese soldiers facing us are from?"

Zhang Dabiao immediately replied: "Report to the regiment commander, according to the information I received, the Japanese in front of us are the Sakata Regiment of the 3rd Regiment of the 4th Independent Mixed Brigade."

"Tan Nd, no wonder the fighting power of this unit is so strong, it turns out to be the Sakata Unit, which is an old rival of our Eighth Route Army."

"Captain, this Sakata Regiment is known as the elite force of the devils."

After hearing this, Li Yunlong shouted loudly: "TND, I'm going to attack the elite! Let them know that we, the Eighth Route Army, are not to be trifled with!"

…………

On the Japanese position.

Nobutsu Sakata stood in the command post and looked ahead, only to see the Eighth Route Army launch another tenacious counterattack, which repelled his troops.

He turned around angrily and said to the adjutant beside him:

"Pu Youjun, look at this Eighth Route Army unit in front of us. It has such strong combat effectiveness. Who did it come from?"

Pu Youjun immediately bowed and replied: "Reporting to His Excellency the Commander, according to the reliable intelligence we intercepted, the troops in front of us are the elite troops of the 18th Division of the 129th Army."

"Oh? The elite troops of the 129th Division?"

"Then let me ask you again, which regiment of the 129th Division is this unit from?"

When Pu Youjun heard this question, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He stammered and answered:

"This... This, we really haven't found out yet. So far, we haven't been able to capture even one prisoner, so we can't determine its specific number."

"Damn it! We've been fighting for so long and we still don't even know the enemy's number. How can this be justified? How can the army of our Great Japanese Empire be so incompetent!"

Pu Youjun was so frightened that he trembled all over and quickly bowed his head to admit his mistake: "Hey, please calm down, Captain. I will increase the intensity of the investigation and find out the other party's number as soon as possible!"

After venting his anger, Sakata Nobutsu said:

"Pu Youjun, did you see that? This Eighth Route Army unit in front of us is by no means an ordinary force.

Their commander must be an extraordinary person. Look at the layout of the defensive positions and the setting of the firing points. Everything seems so orderly. What we are facing this time is indeed a powerful Eighth Route Army unit. "

After hearing this, the adjutant nodded slightly to show his agreement: "Sir, you are right.

The Eighth Route Army has always been famous for its guerrilla warfare, but it is truly impressive that this unit was able to organize such an effective defensive position in such a short period of time. "

After hearing this, Sakata Nobutsu's eyes flashed with ruthlessness: "Pass my order, tell the attacking troops to capture the commander of this Eighth Route Army unit alive. I want to see what kind of person the commander of this Eighth Route Army unit is."

…………

At the position of the New 1st Regiment, the soldiers were preparing nervously, waiting for the next round of fierce attack from the Japanese.

Li Yunlong strode to the front of the position.

"Zhang Dabiao, come here!"

When Zhang Dabiao heard the order, he immediately walked out of the crowd and came to Li Yunlong.

"Captain, are you looking for me?" he asked, saluting.

"Zhang Dabiao, let me ask you, how is the headquarters' transfer going now?"

Zhang Dabiao immediately replied: "Report to the head of the group, I just received news from the headquarters that the headquarters and the hospital have all been safely transferred."

Hearing this news, Li Yunlong smiled: "Now that the headquarters has been safely transferred, we can let go and go all out!"

"Today, I want to see how powerful the Sakata Regiment is! We want to let them know that our New 1st Regiment is not to be trifled with!"

Li Yunlong said to Zhang Dabiao again: "Zhang Dabiao, pass on my order, prepare to attack the Japanese!"

Zhang Dabiao was a little surprised: "Captain, the Japanese are attacking us now."

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "Zhang Dabiao, remember, the best defense is offense! Today I want to let the Sakata regiment have a taste of our new regiment's power!"

"Yes, Commander!" Zhang Dabiao answered loudly and turned around to convey the order.

Just at the critical moment when the New 1st Regiment was ready to launch an attack on the Japanese, the communicator hurried over.

"Report to the leader, urgent news!"

"We have just received a direct order from the brigade commander, ordering the New 771st Regiment to immediately turn to the direction of Yujialing to break out and retreat, and the 772st and nd Regiments are responsible for covering our retreat."

After hearing what the communicator said, Li Yunlong said angrily:

"Tsk, in my dictionary, Li Yunlong, there is no word like 'retreat'! It doesn't matter where we break out from.

I'm going to break through the Sakata regiment directly from the front and let them have a taste of the power of the New 1st Regiment!"

The communicator was shocked by Li Yunlong's actions, but he also understood that this was an act of disobeying military orders.

He hesitated for a moment, but still mustered up the courage to say: "Commander, I will send a message to the brigade commander right away, but...but..."

"Go and tell them that our New 1st Regiment has decided to defeat the Sakata Regiment and break out from the front!"

"Yes, Commander!" Although the communicator was nervous, he quickly carried out Li Yunlong's order.

Zhang Dabiao, who was standing by, couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.

He knew Li Yunlong's temper and determination very well. He approached Li Yunlong cautiously and whispered, "Captain, doing this is disobeying the orders of your superiors."

Li Yunlong glared at Zhang Dabiao and shouted:

"Who is the leader of the new regiment? It's me, Li Yunlong! Disobeying orders?

I am going to disobey for once today! Go, execute the order, and prepare the soldiers to break out from the front!"

Zhang Dabiao was shocked by Li Yunlong's domineering attitude. He said no more and immediately turned around to convey Li Yunlong's order.

…………

Inside the Sakata Company Command Post.

Nobutsu Sakata was giving orders to his adjutant.

"Pu Youjun, the Eighth Route Army troops in front of us have extraordinary combat effectiveness. We must go all out and not relax at all."

"Time is running out. We must capture the main position of Cangyun Ridge before noon."

Pu You responded respectfully: "Yes, Your Excellency, the commander. The 3rd Infantry Battalion is fully prepared and can launch an attack at any time."

Sakata Nobutsu shook his head and said, "Not enough. Although the 3rd Infantry Battalion is brave, they alone are not enough.

Immediately get the 1st Infantry Battalion ready to attack. This time, we must take the main position of Cangyun Ridge in one fell swoop. We cannot afford to lose!"

Pu You immediately straightened up and responded loudly: "Hi, Your Excellency the Commander! I will convey your order immediately."

After saying that, Pu You quickly turned around and walked out of the command post.
