As night fell, the Japanese soldiers at Dayukou Pass all went into their tents to rest.

Not only do I have to work during the day, I also have to train, which consumes a lot of physical energy.

So before ten o'clock, the entire Dayukou Pass fell into silence.

Except for the soldiers on guard duty and patrol.

Zuoyun County is not far from Dayukou Pass, only about 30 kilometers away.

Well within the range of the self-propelled artillery battalion.

Tonight's attack on Dayukou Pass will be a joint operation involving multiple arms.

Therefore, the person in charge of commanding this operation was not Li Yunlong, but Li Jingrong.

Because Li Yunlong himself knows his own level. This is a brand new tactic, and only Li Jingrong can do it.

This time, the purpose was to capture Dayukou Pass with lightning speed.

Li Jingrong mobilized a tank battalion, a mechanized infantry battalion, a self-propelled artillery battalion, the newly established army aviation battalion and the assault brigade.

In addition, the First Aviation Brigade will be mobilized to participate in this operation.

Both the J-5 fighter and the Q-5 attack aircraft are equipped with night vision equipment.

Although it is not possible to fight around the clock, there is no problem fighting at night.

Tanks, helicopters, special forces and fighter jets, this new type of multi-service joint operations will show its brilliance in this operation.

The battle plan formulated by Li Jingrong was also very simple.

The first step was to mobilize an independent self-propelled artillery battalion to build an artillery position about 20 kilometers away from Dayukou Pass.

The Type 83 152mm self-propelled howitzer has a maximum range of 30 kilometers when using rocket-assisted ammunition.

Not to mention the range of the 2S7 self-propelled howitzer.

With a caliber of 203mm, even with ordinary high-explosive grenades, its range can reach 32 kilometers, and its maximum range exceeds 50 kilometers.

Dayukou Pass was completely within the range of these two heavy artillery pieces.

The reason why the Type 85 self-propelled rocket launcher was not used was because it was completely unnecessary.

It is enough to use the heavy firepower of a self-propelled artillery battalion to deal with a regiment of Japanese devils.

There is absolutely no need to waste too much ammunition on them.

After the Aviation Battalion set off with the assault brigade, the self-propelled artillery battalion used heavy firepower to launch a fierce bombardment on Dayukou Pass.

24 152mm self-propelled howitzers plus 12 203mm howitzers.

This firepower is enough to destroy the fortifications built by the Japanese and undermine their fighting will.

By the time the Army Aviation Battalion arrived, the artillery fire had lasted for more than 10 minutes.

24 Mi-24 Hind attack helicopters and 12 Mi-8 transport helicopters will launch a fierce air fire attack on the surviving Japanese troops at Dayukou Pass.

After opening up a landing site under heavy fire.

The transport helicopter group can just drop off the assault brigade.

Although the current assault brigade is still only 200 people in size.

But their equipment is relatively advanced, including assault rifles, light and heavy machine guns, rocket launchers, mortars, bulletproof vests, etc., all of which are not bad, and are equipment produced around 2000.

Moreover, Li Jingrong also equipped them with binocular night vision goggles and some night vision equipment, which greatly enhanced their night combat capabilities.

After all, Li Jingrong is training the assault brigade in the direction of a special forces unit, so the equipment must naturally keep up.

However, on the front battlefield, special forces cannot play a big role, so the attention they receive is limited.

After they appeared on the scene, they were responsible for dealing with the surviving Japanese troops on the ground.

The role of the tank battalion and mechanized infantry battalion was to occupy Dayukou Pass to face the Japanese counterattack.

As for why the First Air Brigade was not deployed in this combat plan.

That’s because their target is not Dayukou Pass at all.

Instead, when they launched the attack, the Japanese reinforcements were their target.

At night, their infrared night vision equipment could easily detect Japanese troops on the ground.

All you need to do is throw all kinds of ammunition at the heads of the Japanese.

Moreover, Li Jingrong specially prepared a batch of 2501 bombs for them.

This type of bomb also has another name, which is aviation cluster bomb.

This type of cluster bomb was also introduced and imitated by the Chinese from the Russians.

The types of ammunition loaded inside are also different and are carried randomly.

For example, a 10-kilogram high-explosive bomb, a 2.5-kilogram high-explosive bomb, and a 2.5-kilogram incendiary bomb.

These are all powerful weapons used to kill exposed targets in the wild.

The Japanese marching troops were one of the best targets.

If the First Air Brigade is responsible for air cover, the Japanese reinforcements will not be able to reach Dayukou Pass in a short time.

This is the battle plan formulated by Li Jingrong.

Zuoyun County, Datong Military Sub-district Combat Command.

Li Jingrong raised his right wrist and watched the hands of the mechanical watch beating continuously, and his heart seemed to be beating along with the hands.

This was his first time commanding a military operation of such a scale, and he was still a little nervous.

Over such a long time, he has read quite a few military books.

Having spent such a long time with Li Yunlong, his command ability is theoretically no problem.

He is no longer the ignorant young man he was when he traveled through time.

When the pointer reached 12 o'clock, Li Jingrong picked up the phone on the desk.

"I am Li Jingrong. I declare the Nightfall Operation officially underway. All units must proceed according to the planned plan."

Following this phone call, the order was quickly conveyed to all combat units.

The current independent regiment has the most advanced and complete communication system in the world, and combat orders can be directly issued to the platoon level.

For example, radio stations have now been decentralized to the company level.

Squads and platoons have already begun to be equipped with portable walkie-talkies.

For this purpose, Li Yunlong established a huge communications center in the combat command headquarters, and its scale has been upgraded to a communications battalion.

With this configuration, even the so-called rich Americans are inferior to them.

Guojiaping!

This is one of the artillery positions chosen by the independent self-propelled artillery battalion.

At this moment, in a flat field in Guojiaping, 24 Type 83 152mm self-propelled howitzers are ready for battle.

Less than 800 meters away from them, another 12 2S7 self-propelled howitzers were ready.

Under the guidance of the drone's coordinates, they had already adjusted the artillery parameters.

Just wait for the order to fire the shells directly.

"Battalion Commander, the order has come down. Let us fire at the designated target."

Battalion Commander Fang Tianrui was immediately inspired and picked up his walkie-talkie and shouted, "Attention, all teams, fire at the target immediately."

"Repeat, fire at target immediately."

Dayukou Pass, artillery tower and sentry box.

Three Japanese soldiers were guarding a spotlight and a heavy machine gun, constantly scanning the flat ground ahead.

If anything happens, they can provide timely warnings.

The weather in the north in July is still a little hot even in the early morning.

Only when the gentle breeze blows by and takes away some of the heat can you feel a little cooler.

"Tianmu-kun, you fought against the Independent Regiment before joining our regiment. Are they really that powerful?"

The assistant machine gunner asked the Japanese soldier named Tianmu standing beside him.

After hearing his questions, the Japanese soldier in Tianmu couldn't help but recall some bad memories.

As a member of the 14th Regiment of the 59th Division.

As they were marching leisurely in their cars.

Suddenly they felt the sky change color.

Then came the overwhelming rockets, which came crashing down like a tidal wave.

That was a scene he never wanted to recall in his life.

Since this battle, the 14th Division suffered heavy losses.

After he recovered, he did not return to his original unit due to health reasons, but was transferred here to serve as a heavy machine gunner.

He quickly shook his head, dispelling the memories from his mind, took a deep breath and said, "They are very powerful, especially their artillery."

"I don't think you want to see that."

The deputy archer said unconvincedly, "Humph, they are just a bunch of peasants. Facing the imperial offensive, they will definitely be defeated."

The Tianmu kid sighed and said, "I hope so."

Suddenly, in the distant night sky, a few flashes of red caught his eye.

Under the cover of night, several objects emitting orange-red flames were moving at high speed in the sky.

Their goal is clearly in this direction.

After seeing this, the pupils of the Tianmu little devil shrank, and he shouted frantically, regardless of anything: "Enemy attack, artillery fire, Chinese artillery fire."

The veteran in charge of the searchlight has more experience.

This place is a mile away from the camp, and even if you shout at the top of your lungs, it will be difficult to alert anyone in the direction of the camp.

He simply picked up the rifle beside him and fired a shot into the air.

The sound of gunfire is the best warning.

But their warning was too late.

The shells had already flown over the camp.

Three shells whizzed down directly below the camp.

These three shells are just calibration shells.

“Boom boom boom…”

Three 152mm caliber artillery shells hit the camp, causing a violent explosion.

The hit rate of these three shells was still very high, and all of them hit the camp.

Many Japanese soldiers were blown into the sky while they were still asleep, and they went to see their Amaterasu.

After these three shells fell, the entire camp exploded.

Although most of these Japanese soldiers were new recruits, their reaction speed was still very good.

They all ran out of the tents in the camp, most of them were in a panic, and many of them were only wearing shorts.

"Baga, bombard! Those who don't want to die, hurry up and act."

The captain of the regiment, Sakisu, also hurried out of the tent, his hands still busy buttoning his clothes.

"Baga, what happened?"
