Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

The Japanese also knew this, so even though it was an important place like You County, they only sent one battalion to garrison it.

In the enemy's mind, a battalion of troops could easily withstand the attack of a Chinese infantry division and hold out until the arrival of nearby reinforcements.

Besides, the First Army is currently on the offensive, and there is not a single infantry division of the Chinese Army nearby that can break through the numerous strongholds and reach the city of You County.

It is also because of this that the Japanese believed that their defense measures were impregnable, and that You County had very developed transportation, with a railway and several roads connecting to other places.

If attacked, reinforcements from other places will arrive in two days at most, so there is no need to worry about safety.

At this time, Captain Long, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly raised his head and asked with a hint of meaning:

"Captain Li, I haven't seen Captain Kong these past two days. Is he on another mission?"

These words immediately awakened Chu Yunfei from his dream, and he also realized that he had not seen Kong Hao in the battle during the day.

Logically speaking, if the Independent Regiment has such an ace, they certainly cannot hide them. If they are not here now, they must be carrying out a more important mission.

Li Yunlong pointed to You County and said proudly:

"Xiao Kong has already led his team into You County, preparing to carry out a decapitation operation."

"What the Japanese Yamamoto Special Forces can do is even easier for our special forces."

"When our troops are preparing to attack the city, we will destroy the enemy's garrison headquarters and take advantage of the chaos to open the city gates to welcome our troops into the city. Do you think this battle can be won?"

After listening to Li Yunlong's complete plan, the three regiment commanders' eyes suddenly lit up. If they could really destroy the Japanese command system and successfully open the city gate, this battle could be fought.

Ever since several regiments worked together to wipe out an entire field regiment of the Japanese, everyone's vision has become much higher.

In the past, if a squadron of Japanese devils was wiped out, the three regimental commanders would probably be so happy that they couldn't sleep and would even report it to the authorities for credit. But now, if a squadron of the enemy is wiped out, it's just a normal thing for everyone. It's nothing to brag about.

Especially Chu Yunfei, who has the best strategic vision. At this time, he has already completed the combat mission. He can break away from the limitations of one city or one place and consider the problem from the overall perspective.

The complete annihilation of the Noda Regiment did resolve the crisis in Hexian County, and the headquarters of the Second War Zone in the rear was also safe.

And after this victory report is sent back, it will also boost the morale of other troops and stabilize the current situation.

However, doing so will not solve the fundamental problem. But if we can capture Youxian, the Japanese supply transit base, then the enemy's front-line troops will definitely face a shortage of ammunition, and the next battle will be easier to fight.

In fact, both the enemy and us are now in a stalemate. Although the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army suffered heavy losses and lost a lot of territory, the two divisions belonging to the First Army also suffered a lot of casualties, and also consumed a large amount of combat supplies.

As long as we capture You County and destroy the massive amount of supplies stored there, all these crises will be resolved.

Chu Yunfei carefully drew the map between Hexian and Youxian, and after carefully planning for a long time, he raised his head and frowned and said:

"Brother Yunlong, how confident are you that you can win this battle?"

After hearing this, the other people present also looked at Li Yunlong with sharp eyes, wanting to get some affirmative answers from him.

Li Yunlong smiled and replied, "At least 70%."

Hearing this success rate, Chu Yunfei nodded in agreement. His estimated chance of success was more than half, which was already a very high number.

In an army, it is impossible to make a perfect combat plan when formulating it. When carrying out a mission, it will certainly face various variables. The key lies in the commander's ability to adapt to changes.

If you are absolutely sure about the final result, be careful, as you may fall into a trap carefully set by your opponent.

Generally speaking, as long as the success rate exceeds 50%, a good commander will choose to take action. If it exceeds 60%, he should take action immediately. If it reaches 70%, he should definitely take action without hesitation.

The reason why Li Yunlong was so confident was that the independent regiment must have many unknown secrets, such as the mysterious small unit that could easily defeat Yamamoto's special forces. If this kind of unit was used well, its combat effectiveness would be no less than that of a main battalion.

If we put a main battalion in the enemy's belly and cause havoc, the Japanese will have a lot of fun.

It's just a battalion of defenders. It's not a big deal as long as it's a surprise attack.

"Brother Yunlong, since you have set up such a big stage, my 358th Regiment will help you no matter what."

"Captain Li, our Sichuan Army 645th Regiment is the same."

"Captain Li, our Shaanxi Army 244th Regiment will not miss such a good opportunity."

Seeing that everyone agreed with the battle plan, Li Yunlong asked Zhao Gang to introduce it in detail.

In fact, it is very simple to explain. The 358th Regiment had a mountain artillery battalion, and it seized an artillery squadron from the Noda Regiment, as well as the Japanese battalion-level Type infantry artillery and the independent regiment's own artillery company.

They could easily disperse these artillery pieces, using the mode of one company plus two mountain guns or infantry guns, to destroy the Japanese strongholds between Hexian and Youxian in a fan-shaped manner, while also preventing the Japanese from grasping the focus of their attack.

Because the attack was carried out by a small force and over a large area, it was like boiling a frog in warm water. The Japanese now had limited manpower and basically could not send many reinforcements to put out fires everywhere.

What followed was the highlight. A main force of about 358 people were drawn from the th Regiment and the Independent Regiment respectively. They used the others to open a gap in the Japanese defense and divided into small groups to head towards Youxian County via small roads or mountain roads.

The attacking troops were not allowed to carry any heavy siege weapons except for a limited number of mortars. This was why the Japanese believed that their fortifications had no loopholes.

Without the assistance of heavy siege artillery, let alone 3,000 people, even 5,000 or even tens of thousands of people would not be able to break through the city gate's fortifications in a short period of time.

In fact, it is not only the Chinese army that is like this, the same principle applies even to the Japanese invaders who come to attack the city.

If the Japanese did not have heavy artillery, as long as the Chinese army generals defending the city were firm in their beliefs and the soldiers were willing to fight for their country, and at the same time, they had sufficient ammunition and effective logistical support, even if the enemy's number was several times that of the defenders, they would not be able to do anything to our city.

It’s just a pity that the Japanese are best at the tactic of “artillery bombardment and infantry charge”. Their artillery advantage is too great, and our troops of the same level are no match for the Japanese at all.

In addition, the Japanese also have airplanes. This is a complete dimensionality reduction attack by an industrial country on an agricultural country. In fact, most of the Chinese soldiers are good. They are using their flesh and blood to resist the enemy's planes and cannons.
