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

This was a death order issued by Yoshio Shinozuka, and he strictly ordered Captain Yamabe to complete it. If he failed, Captain Yamabe's family would be implicated.

With no other choice, Captain Yamabe could only hand over the guarding of the city gate to the puppet army brigade commander Ma, and he would personally oversee the burning of supplies.

The puppet army had no fighting spirit to begin with, and now that they saw the Japanese had fled first, they were unwilling to stay and die. They abandoned all their positions and ran towards other city gates where there was no fighting, hoping to escape everything.

The troops of the first company rushed into the city gate in a confused manner and engaged in the most brutal street fighting with the Japanese.

This sudden change immediately stunned the several regiment commanders present. No one had expected this situation, but it had nothing to do with the new tactics mentioned by Li Yunlong.

Captain Gong complained, "Li Yunlong, is that all? You're probably kidding us. Our time is precious, and we don't have time to play house with you."

"Exactly. Using an artillery regiment to defeat hundreds of puppet troops is like a top martial arts master defeating an eight-year-old child. It's pure force, with no technical skills involved at all."

"Yes, if we pull our regiment up, with an artillery regiment supporting us from behind, I can easily win. There's nothing to brag about, Li Yunlong. You've made a fool of yourself this time."

Faced with the complaints of his old comrades, Li Yunlong was also very depressed. The previous large-scale artillery bombardment had already made everyone feel an unprecedented shock, but the subsequent infantry attack became a bit of a joke and was unbearable to watch.

But since he has already boasted, he can only force an explanation, otherwise his face will really be turned into a waste.

"My dear friends, according to our battle plan, things weren't supposed to go this way. The tactic my First Battalion practiced diligently is called Infantry-Artillery Coordination, a slow-moving barrage advance. It's essentially infantry attacking along explosive points with the support of artillery. It's an advanced tactic."

At this point, he seemed to have thought of something, so he quickly said, "Originally, this tactic was prepared for the elite Japanese troops, but I never thought that the first time it was used on these spineless puppet troops, it's really unlucky."

"Pass on my order. All siege troops must enter the city immediately and, according to the pre-determined battle plan, quickly eliminate the remaining enemies within."

The first battalion had just swung a swift punch, which happened to hit a large piece of cotton. They were immediately depressed and wanted to vomit blood. After receiving the order from the regiment commander, Zhang Dabiao personally led the assault company of the first battalion to launch a fierce attack on the Japanese regiment headquarters.

The task assigned to the third platoon of the second company of the first battalion was to, under the leadership of our comrades in the city, capture the Japanese prison located in the corner of Wen County and rescue the arrested comrades there.

"Hello, is this Comrade Jiaque? I am Ouyang Dashan, the platoon leader of the third platoon of the second company of the first battalion of the independent regiment."

"Hello, Platoon Leader Ouyang. We've been waiting for the main force to enter the city for a long time, and now it's finally here."

"There are eight of us in our action team. We are under your command and will resolutely complete the tasks assigned by our superiors."

After he finished speaking, he spread out a simple map and pointed to a location and said, "In the Japanese prison in the city, there is one of our comrades. This is the simple map he drew."

"The Japanese used to have a small team of soldiers defending the prison. But after they were defeated and fled, they transferred everyone to guard the city walls. Now only a few prison guards and puppet soldiers are left."

"Now that our army is approaching, the Japanese are about to face their doom. Thanks to the persuasion of our comrades who have infiltrated the interior, 20% of the prison guards have already sided with us. Once the main force arrives, we will be able to quickly rescue all the prisoners."

Platoon Leader Ouyang quickly said, "Okay, let's get started now. We must take over this prison as soon as possible."

At this time in the prison, a comrade code-named Thunder was discussing the next action plan with others.

"Xiaobao, you will lead the six brothers to the prison gate later and take over the guard duty at the gate under the pretext of changing guards. If the warden's men notice anything unusual, they will be disarmed immediately."

"Our main force has entered the city now and will reach us in an hour at most. We must hurry."

"You must remember the contact information. Once the main force arrives, immediately welcome them in and take control of the entire prison."

"I will lead the remaining people to where the prisoners are being held to prevent the warden's men from becoming desperate and harming our imprisoned comrades."

Comrade Xiaobao, upon hearing this, immediately said anxiously, "Brother Qiang, this is too dangerous. How about I take the people to the cell, and you take the people to the door?"

"I've already made the decision on this matter. Stop arguing and just follow my orders."

In fact, a year ago, Lei Dian was ordered to break into the Japanese prison alone, mainly to see if there was any chance to rescue our arrested comrades.

At that time, there was a regiment of Japanese troops stationed in Wen County. Not only was there a small team serving as guards in the prison, but there was even a Japanese military camp across the street. There was no chance at all to rescue the arrested comrades.

With no other choice, Lei Dian obeyed the orders of his superiors and hid in the prison. Because of the special background prepared for him by his superiors, he has become the de facto second-in-command of the prison.

Normally he would just provide some intelligence from the prison, such as when some prisoners were transferred out of the prison, or transferred in from other prisons. Our comrades outside would carry out rescue operations along the necessary routes outside the city based on this intelligence.

This is Comrade Lei Dian’s greatest value. In the past six months, he has successfully rescued three groups of arrested comrades and made considerable contributions.

He originally thought that he would have to face this latent life for a long time.

However, about half a month ago, things took a big turn for the better. After the main force of the Japanese troops stationed in Wen County left the city, they were defeated by our main force. I heard that even the regiment commander was killed.

Of the more than 2,000 troops that left the city, only a few hundred escaped back, and many of their weapons and equipment were lost. The enemy looked extremely miserable.

Faced with this situation, people with discerning eyes have long seen that the Japanese in Wen County are like a rabbit with a long tail, and it is only a matter of time before the county is recaptured by us.

Lei Dian also received orders from Jia Que, the online commander, to be ready at any time to carry out an armed rescue of all comrades in the prison.

When he led his men to the prison cell, because of his identity, he used his position to take over the guards of the cell. Those who were unwilling to cooperate were all disarmed and locked up.

Then he came to the cell and said to everyone inside: "Our large army has entered the city. It won't be long before they reach here. Don't worry, we will rescue everyone as soon as possible."
