As soon as Li Yunlong opened his mouth, he realized that the occasion was wrong. This was the headquarters of the 772nd Regiment, not his independent regiment.

If he continues to be as outspoken as before and calls people "Blind Cheng" to their faces, he will suffer a great loss.

As the saying goes: He who knows the current situation is a hero, so he quickly changed his words and said:

"Captain Cheng, the brigade commander has his own plans. Why are you so bothered? Are you more powerful than the brigade commander?"

"By the way, your 772nd Regiment is the Brigade Commander's favorite, and you actually have so many mortars."

"Our independent regiment doesn't even have one now. Even the new regiment only has a Japanese Type 90 mm light mortar without shells. It's good to have a mother. Unlike us, who are not loved by grandmas or grandpas, we have to go out to find food by ourselves."

Facing Li Yunlong's sarcasm, Captain Cheng responded bluntly:

"Of course. We are the main force, and we have the heaviest mission. We also have strict discipline. We are not like some people who treat making mistakes as easy as drinking water or eating."

"Disobeying orders on the battlefield is such a serious crime. If it weren't for the brigade commander's protection, some people would have been shot several times."

Just as the two men were arguing and mocking each other, the brigade commander arrived at the Zhangcun stronghold with the guard company and special forces.

When Captain Cheng saw the small troop coming with the brigade commander, his eyes widened and he almost drooled.

"Li Yunlong, these are your soldiers. What a luxury."

"There are only thirteen of us, equipped with a Czech light machine gun and a grenade launcher, and the rest are the Japanese Type 38 rifles."

"Wait, my God, what do I see? Each of them has a Mauser pistol on his back."

"Li Yunlong, your independent regiment is no longer viable. Even the machine gunners are equipped with Mauser pistols. It's such a waste."

"If you have a lot of Mauser pistols, you can give us some. Some platoon leaders in our regiment don't even have Mauser pistols."

Seeing Blind Cheng's surprised expression, Li Yunlong was extremely pleased. He could be considered to have won the game completely.

He pretended to be profound and unfathomable, and boasted proudly:

"These are small scenes. Our independent regiment has nothing but ammunition. Equipping some elite troops with pistols is the most basic operation."

"I say, Old Cheng, you are born poor, your eyes are shallow, and you have never seen the world. What's the big deal?"

"Something even more miraculous will happen soon, so don't let your eyes pop out when that happens."

Li Yunlong was really showing off this time, which made Captain Cheng very angry.

But after he finished speaking, he stepped forward and greeted:

"Brigade Commander, Kong Hao, you are all here."

"Li Yunlong, how are the preparations here? Everything depends on you from now on."

Commander Cheng, who was following behind, quickly replied: "Commander, everything is ready, just waiting for you to come and take command."

However, the brigade commander turned to look at Kong Hao and said with a smile:

"Xiao Kong, you are the protagonist in this battle. Everything will be arranged by you."

Kong Hao walked forward and said to everyone:

"Brigade Commander, Captain Li, Captain Cheng, this tactic is actually very simple."

"We will send four companies to launch a feint attack on the Japanese stronghold from four directions, and fire outside the range of the light machine guns in the artillery tower to attract the enemy's attention."

"Also, have the artillery disperse and fire a few shots at each location, and the other soldiers can just throw a few grenades to create some smoke."

After hearing this, Captain Cheng asked anxiously:

"What should we do with the four sturdy artillery towers of the Japanese? It seems that doing this will not achieve any effect except wasting ammunition."

At this time, Li Yunlong on the side jumped out and said loudly:

"Old Cheng, let's leave these small artillery towers to our independent regiment. You don't have to worry about it."

He deliberately emphasized the three words "Independent Regiment" in order to tell Commander Cheng that the Independent Regiment would be the main attacking force in this battle, and the 772nd Regiment would only be cooperating in the battle.

In other words, Li Yunlong had never seen the power of the RPG-7 rocket launcher, otherwise he would definitely have boasted about it.

For example, all of you just stay aside and watch my special forces show you a unique skill, tearing apart the Japanese artillery tower with bare hands.

When Captain Cheng heard that Li Yunlong had mocked him again, he was so angry that his teeth were itching. However, since the brigade commander was present, he couldn't say anything, so he could only sulk in his heart.

However, he also wanted to see how Li Yunlong would end up if he failed to capture the Zhangcun stronghold.

Kong Hao led the special forces team slowly approached the battlefield. Following an order from Captain Cheng, the Guard Company of the 771st Regiment and the Guard Battalion of the 386th Brigade simultaneously launched an attack on the Zhangcun stronghold.

At this time, the highest commander of the Japanese army in charge of guarding the Zhangcun stronghold was named Inukai Taro, with the rank of lieutenant and was the captain of a reinforced team.

At first, he was shocked when he heard that the stronghold was attacked. After all, the Xiaowangzhuang stronghold was captured a few days ago, and the people above had ordered all strongholds to step up their guard.

However, when Captain Inukai saw the situation of the attacking troops from the top floor of the main bunker, he immediately felt relieved.

The troops besieging them only had more than 500 people in total. It was simply a dream for these people to want to capture their stronghold.

However, being cautious by nature, he still reviewed his own situation, especially previous cases where watchtowers or strongholds had been conquered.

For example, the Eighth Route Army guerrillas are best at disguising themselves and sneaking into strongholds, and then attacking the strongholds with the help of both inside and outside forces. In response to this situation, no new people have entered their stronghold for two months, which basically blocked this path.

In addition, all the supplies were transported in from the county town by truck, which was enough for more than 300 people to consume for three months.

Moreover, the Zhangcun stronghold is a material supply station for some nearby small artillery towers. It has all kinds of supplies, so the least worry is being besieged.

As for destroying well water, digging tunnels and blasting, there are already countermeasures for these tricks and no one will be allowed to succeed.

It was also because of this that Captain Inukai was so arrogant that he didn't even make a phone call to request tactical guidance, for fear that the arrival of reinforcements would scare the Eighth Route Army away, thus losing a lot of credit.

Moreover, the defenders of the Zhangcun stronghold were all elite veterans. Even the puppet troops were the most diehard and stubborn, and they all clamored to make these local Eighth Route Army pay a heavy price.

However, to be on the safe side, Captain Inukai sent a combat team to each of the other three small bunkers.

In name, it was to assist in defense, but in reality it was to supervise all puppet troops to prevent them from surrendering when the war became critical.

However, our attacking troops had already received the order and were just firing calmly. No one showed their heads, just treating it as shooting practice.

After firing two shots, they threw a few grenades made in the border area into the open space. The ones that produced a lot of smoke could be used as smoke bombs.

The Japanese defenders were confused about the situation and thought it was some new tactic, so they could only keep firing blocking shots.

Kong Hao, carrying his box, brought a special forces member to a secluded place 400 meters away from the Japanese stronghold.

He first opened the box, took out the RPG-7 rocket launcher and introduced it:

"Liu Jindou, you are a rare and highly educated talent in our special forces. From now on, this rocket launcher will be kept and used by you. You must study hard."

Liu Jindou, who was in his twenties, was very excited when he heard this. This was a secret weapon that could destroy the Japanese's sturdy artillery tower in one fell swoop. Being selected to operate it was also a recognition of his ability.

"Open the ammunition box first and help me load it."
