Bright Sword: Double penetration of the dealer, shocking Li Yunlong

While he was still inspecting the wounded and sick in the field hospital, he heard a roar in the sky above Yunfengling.

As soon as he heard the sound, he immediately knew that the regiment headquarters had sent the Army Aviation Corps to transport supplies.

Since there were many wounded and sick soldiers this time, the Army Aviation Battalion not only dispatched 12 Mi-8 transport helicopters, but also dispatched 8 Mi-24 Hind attack helicopters to assist in transportation.

The entire helicopter fleet set off in five batches, with each batch departing about half an hour apart.

The first batch of four Mi-4 medium transport helicopters arrived over Yunfengling.

Under the guidance of the ground indicator lights, four Mi-4 transport helicopters landed smoothly and directly filled the entire flat ground.

"Hurry, go move the things, quick!"

The Mi-8 helicopter had just landed and its rotor was still running when a large number of soldiers rushed up against the whirlwind.

The dust raised by the rotor made it difficult for everyone to open their eyes.

In less than half a minute, the rotor slowed down and the tail door was lowered.

Soon an officer from the Army Aviation Battalion came up to Wang Huaibao and saluted him.

"Reporting to Captain Wang, we have already delivered the supplies. Here is the list for you to take a look at."

Third Battalion Commander Wang Huaibao took the list and took a look at it.

Most of the items transported this time were ammunition, with machine gun bullets, rifle bullets, grenades, and mortar shells accounting for the majority.

Judging from the numbers on the list, there are almost 3 bases.

Even if we fight at the intensity we had today, it would be enough for about three days of consumption.

Apart from ammunition, the rest are basically medicines and supplies.

There was also a batch of dumplings, pork and cigarettes.

After seeing these supplies, Wang Huaibao smiled lightly and said, "The commander is planning to train our Eighth Route Army into veteran soldiers."

"Okay, I'll take the list. A group of seriously injured soldiers will be arriving soon. Please arrange for their loading."

The Army Aviation Battalion officer saluted and said, "Yes!"

The noise of the helicopter fleet was particularly loud in the night sky.

Even though they were almost ten kilometers apart, the 36th Division and the 14th Mixed Brigade could hear the deafening roar.

"What is this sound?"

At this moment, Taisho Goo and Kojima Masamasu were still discussing tomorrow's actions.

After hearing this voice, the two of them walked out of the courtyard and looked towards Dayukou.

But it was too far away and they couldn't see anything at all.

Kojima Masayasu's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Not good. The sound came from Yunfeng Ridge. There must be something wrong."

"I suggest launching a night attack in the early morning to continue to wear them down and test their firepower."

"See if they've been replenished."

Taisho Goo fell into deep thought. After a few seconds, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send out another regiment."

"They had gone through intense fighting during the day, and were exhausted both physically and mentally."

"There's no way they'll sleep well tonight."

A smile also appeared on Masaki Kojima's face.

"I think so too. Reinforcements will arrive tomorrow, and that will be the end of the Independent Regiment."

The night attack lasted until after five in the morning, and the Japanese army stopped the attack only when the sky was slightly bright.

The Japanese army's night attack this time was mainly for harassment, not for attack.

Its main purpose is to prevent the soldiers in Yunfengling from resting.

This is also the Japanese's strategy to tire out the enemy.

But the result may disappoint the Japanese.

The third battalion commander, Wang Huaibao, quickly saw through the Japanese's tricks.

So the soldiers were arranged to take turns fighting in company units.

At the same time, mortars and other weapons were used extensively to suppress the Japanese attack.

This not only failed to achieve the Japanese goal, but also left behind more than a thousand corpses.

"Commander, the drone has detected a large number of Japanese reinforcements. They are approaching us in a motorized march."

Li Yunlong was a little surprised when he heard the news.

"Motorized march? It seems that the troops returning this time are the Japs' elite."

The Japanese army's motorization level is not high, and now only the elite divisions are equipped with a large number of trucks and motorized vehicles.

Therefore, only the elite troops of the Japanese army were capable of marching in motorized form.

"how many people?"

The intelligence officer replied, "Our preliminary estimate puts the number at between 20,000 and 25,000."

"And this Japanese force is also equipped with large-caliber artillery."

Li Yunlong snorted and said, "It seems that the ones returning this time should be the 8th Division. They are the only ones closest to us."

"This is a tough opponent, so we must be prepared for a good fight."

The Eighth Division is a veteran elite division of the Neon Empire, established after the First Sino-Japanese War.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Eighth Division was stationed in the Northeast and was affiliated with the Kwantung Army.

If he had encountered the Kwantung Army before, Li Yunlong might have been a little nervous.

But now he really wants to confront this so-called elite division of the Kwantung Army.

Let’s see whether the Kwantung Army is stronger or his independent regiment is stronger.

If he could defeat or even annihilate the Eighth Division in this battle, then the fame of his independent regiment would spread throughout the country.

"Pass on my order. Have Zhang Dabiao and Sun Desheng prepare to attack and confront this Eighth Division."

"Yes, Commander!"

The motorized marching speed of the 8th Division is still very fast.

In less than half an hour, their vanguard: the Cavalry Regiment arrived at Dayukou Pass first.

The rest of the troops also arrived at the garrison camp within more than an hour.

It is nearly 15 kilometers away from the main position of Dayukou Pass.

Upon arriving, Lieutenant General Shizuo Yokoyama, commander of the 8th Division, said directly, "Take me to the front line to have a look."

"I want to see what this independent group that can bring shame to the empire has."

"Hi!"

Since the boss wanted to go to the front line to take a look, they, the subordinates, didn't dare to say anything.

The commander of the 36th Division, Ohsho Go-o, could only bite the bullet and say, "Sir, I will arrange for someone to escort you there."

Even though both of them were division commanders and at the same level.

But Shizuo Yokoyama's career was obviously brighter than his, so he still needed to be polite to him.

Yokoyama Shizuo looked at Taisho Goshio with a cold and arrogant look and said, "No need. Too many people will easily expose us. I can go with my own people."

Because they were a small target along the way and the fighting on the front line had started again, no trace of their group was found.

After arriving at a place with a good view, Shizuo Yokoyama stopped moving forward.

This place is very close to the battlefield, only less than three kilometers away.

He raised the telescope and looked towards the main position of Dayukou Pass.

At this moment, a battalion of the 36th Division was launching an upward attack towards Dayukou Pass.

The grenade launcher in the rear fired a shell from time to time, causing a series of small explosions on the position.

After seeing this scene, Yokoyama Shizuo frowned and whispered, "What a bunch of idiots! Launching such an attack without artillery cover is simply sending the soldiers to their deaths."

There was no cover at all in front of Dayukou Pass.

Moreover, the enemy's main position is located on a high ground, and the machine gun has a very good firing range.

Although his understanding of the independent regiment was limited to literal information, he also knew that the independent regiment was well-equipped.

A battalion of troops launching a charge without any cover is no different from seeking death.

An officer from the 36th Division overheard this and explained, "Your Excellency, it's not that we don't want to launch artillery cover, but most of our artillery has been destroyed."

"Once we launched the artillery attack, the independent regiment's counterattack would come quickly, and our artillery would be destroyed before we could even move."

After hearing his explanation, Shizuo Yokoyama just snorted coldly and said nothing more.

However, he still looked down on the 36th Division in his heart.

If they had come, the battle would never have developed like this.

It is obvious that Lieutenant General Shizuo Yokoyama from the Kwantung Army is still very dissatisfied with this independent regiment.

However, the independent regiment has always been specialized in dealing with those who disobey.

When the troops of this brigade rushed to a place about 300 meters away from the position.

Fierce gunfire broke out at the Dayukou Pass position.

Bullets poured down like a waterfall.

Even in the daytime, you can see dense bullet marks streaking through the air.

The Japanese soldiers rushing in the front were immediately riddled with bullets and began to fall down in groups.

In just a short while, at least hundreds of Japanese soldiers fell, which shows how intense their firepower was.

The 4th Motorized Infantry Battalion of the Independent Regiment has now taken over the main position of Dayukou Pass.

Take an infantry company as an example. Basically, each squad is equipped with a Type 81 squad machine gun.

Each infantry platoon also has a firepower squad.

This reinforced squad is equipped with two Type 80 general-purpose machine guns and a 60mm mortar.

连下面还有一个火力加强排，装备了3挺80式通用机枪、3门60mm迫击炮和一挺85式重机枪。

A platoon has three squad machine guns and two general-purpose machine guns.

These three platoons consist of 9 squad machine guns, 9 general-purpose machine guns and a 12.7mm large-caliber heavy machine gun.

A company has 17 machine guns.

From this we can see how abnormal the firepower of the current independent regiment is.

Even the American infantry company during World War II did not have such luxurious firepower configuration.

If it is still a pure infantry like before.

Although the equipment is very luxurious, it is also a huge burden for the soldiers.

But now the 4th Battalion is a motorized infantry battalion. With the addition of vehicles, it can carry a large number of heavy weapons and ammunition.

Let’s take the infantry company as an example. Each infantry company has about 240 people.

就装备了2辆5吨重卡，6辆2吨轻型卡车，8辆鹰酱产的吉普车。

Therefore, the current independent regiment has basically reached its current ceiling in terms of firepower configuration.

When Shizuo Yokoyama saw the density of firepower, his jaw almost dropped, and he was no longer as arrogant as before.
