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

Li Yunlong also stayed awake all night. This matter was too big and too dangerous. If half of the Xingtian Special Forces was wiped out in the Japanese army camp, the brigade commander and the division commander would probably skin him alive to vent their anger.

Because this kind of thing is quite dangerous, Kong Hao didn't dare to tell the brigade commander, fearing that he would not agree with him taking the risk.

Only Li Yunlong is the bravest. After all, the greater the risk, the greater the reward.

According to the previous plan, Song Qingfeng had already started to act at this time, and Li Yunlong was also walking around the independent regiment headquarters, feeling that the days were passing by like years.

The combat staff thought that he was worried about tomorrow's battle. In fact, Li Yunlong was worried about the small force of less than 30 people. If they succeeded, it would not be as simple as shocking northwestern Shanxi.

Time passed minute by minute. About an hour later, someone from the independent regiment's communications department ran in excitedly and handed Li Yunlong a telegram.

"The fish has been hooked, the basket is full, and I'm home now, don't worry!"

This was a secret code agreed upon in advance by Song Qingfeng and Li Yunlong, proving that the mission had been completed and the evacuation had been successful.

After receiving it, Li Yunlong immediately fell into ecstasy. He didn't expect that this thing would really succeed. The next thing would be easy. The Gaoqiao Unit was no longer useful. It was time to close the net.

"Send a telegram to the New 1st and 2nd Regiments, asking them to tighten all pockets according to the original plan. At the same time, order the 1st and 2nd Battalions to launch a rapid attack under the cover of artillery when the time comes, and pressure to break through the enemy's defensive positions as soon as possible."

In fact, up to this point in the battle, Takahashi's Regiment still had about 2,500 people, but most of them were already exhausted. Almost all of their infantry battalions had participated in the attack and were then repelled by the Second Battalion, so their organization was no longer complete.

As for the puppet army brigade, it was in an even worse situation. More than half of them had been killed or wounded, and they were basically useless.

By five o'clock in the morning, the sky was already beginning to lighten, and it was also the time when I could sleep soundly.

Li Yunlong came to the artillery position of the independent regiment, where six Italian cannons, five Type 92 infantry guns, and twelve mortars were concentrated. These were all the artillery pieces that the three regiments could use.

Because the New 1st and 2nd Regiments were responsible for blocking the fleeing soldiers of the Gaoqiao Regiment, which required mobility and flexibility, the bulky artillery became a burden and it would be better for the Independent Regiment to use it for attacking the enemy.

The artillery companies of the two regiments were only delivered yesterday afternoon, just in time to launch the general attack this morning.

Li Yunlong looked at the huge artillery force behind him and felt a sense of pride. He thought this was his most glorious moment.

When the time came, Li Yunlong wanted to say something polite, or recite a poem to suit the occasion, but all he could say ended up being reduced to one sentence:

"Fire! Blast him!"

After receiving the order from the regiment commander, the commander of the independent regiment's artillery company commanded an artillery battalion to carry out rapid artillery bombardment at the coordinates that had been marked long ago.

Everyone has been feeling very frustrated these past few days. Although they have artillery that is more advanced than the Japanese, it has been hidden by the regiment commander. They feel very uncomfortable watching the infantry of the Second Battalion being bullied by the enemy artillery on the position.

Through the calculations over the past two days, the artillery has basically mastered the specific coordinates of the Gaoqiao Regiment's artillery positions, ammunition depots, regiment headquarters and battalion headquarters, all for today's roar.

The Japanese were too careless. They could never have imagined that a regimental-level combat unit actually hid a mountain artillery squadron, a Type 92 infantry artillery squadron, and two mortar squadrons.

According to their intelligence, even the 386th Brigade, the absolute main force of the Eighth Route Army, could not produce so many heavy artillery, let alone a mere independent regiment.

And the most crucial thing is that the independent regiment has so many artillery pieces, and they are hidden so well. Even when the position of the Second Battalion was in danger two days ago, only the reserve team was deployed and no artillery support was used.

However, all the efforts were worth it. With a roar from Li Yunlong, groups of artillery shells flew directly towards the Japanese, causing heavy casualties to the enemy.

The Italian artillery shells had a long range and great power. The first three rounds were specifically aimed at bombarding the Japanese Type 92 infantry gun positions. Eighteen shells directly blew the Japanese Type 92 infantry guns into pieces.

They also detonated the artillery shells on the position. Fires broke out and all the surrounding Japanese artillerymen were killed or wounded.

The next step was to extend the firepower to shoot at other important targets in the Japanese military camp, especially the material storage and transportation base, which was the focus of attention.

The Type 92 infantry gun was specifically designed to attack the Japanese regiment headquarters and places with dense personnel, so as to cause maximum damage to the enemy.

Our mortar units were divided into east and west artillery groups of six, using carpet bombing to destroy a large number of enemy forces.

Of course, this is also thanks to Song Qingfeng. When he was grabbing the regiment flag, he also calculated the coordinates of all important targets of the Gaoqiao Regiment. This is also a basic skill for the special operations team, it is purely "catching rabbits by robbing grass".

Takahashi Ryo was sleeping soundly at this time, when he was suddenly awakened by a burst of artillery fire. As a veteran of many battles, he immediately determined that it was the sound of mountain artillery shells flying in the air, and was immediately shocked.

This situation was due to the arrival of powerful reinforcements from the independent regiment, or Li Yunlong's own hidden artillery strength.

If it is the latter, then this Li Yunlong is too terrifying. He has been able to endure until now before taking action, so he must have been sure of victory. Now the only way to survive is to retreat urgently.

Just as Takahashi Ryo was thinking of this, several Type 92 infantry artillery shells suddenly fell into the tent behind him. Many combat staff officers who had not escaped died inside. There were even a few bodies that were directly lifted into the air by the blast of the shells, and fell heavily to the ground after a long time.

Captain Takahashi saw that the situation was so critical that he knew that most of the independent regiment would definitely rush up after the shelling ended. Now their soldiers had no fighting spirit, so the only option now was to evacuate as soon as possible.

So he issued the latest order: "Everyone retreat urgently, and order the flag guard squadron to burn the regiment flag. It must not fall into the hands of the independent regiment."

At this moment, the time bomb set by Song Qingfeng exploded, and the huge flames burned the entire tent, as if it had been hit by a cannonball.

After seeing this, Gao Qiaoliang was only sad for five seconds, then waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's better to burn it, it will save trouble. Order the troops to retreat in turns."
