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

In early November 1941.

Originally, Li Yunlong wanted to hold a swearing-in ceremony for all the soldiers to go to war, so as to inspire their belief in victory in the war.

However, considering that the Japanese reconnaissance planes had been flying quite frequently in Ling County recently, they gave up the idea and only summoned officers above the company level.

Li Yunlong stood in front of everyone, looking at the dozens of officers above the company level, and couldn't help but feel excited.

Now the total strength of his independent regiment is nearly 5000 people, hundreds more than the expected expansion.

This size would definitely make it an ace main force even in the National Army.

The number of people is no less than Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment.

This independent regiment was slowly built up by Li Yunlong from an initial population of more than a thousand people.

Of course, Li Jingrong also made great contributions, but it was also inseparable from Li Yunlong. Not to mention the equipment.

The current independent regiment is equipped with more than 4000 assault rifles, and if anti-aircraft machine guns are included, the number has exceeded .

还有18门82mm无后坐力炮，数十门各型号迫击炮，10门37mm高射炮以及两门122mm榴弹炮。

In addition to these light and heavy firepower, the class is also equipped with RPG7 rocket launchers.

It can be said that the current independent regiments are even more luxuriously equipped than the infantry regiments of the great powers.

This is also Li Jingrong's ideal infantry regiment organization. Such a well-equipped, well-organized, and powerful unit.

Even if facing an elite regiment or two second-line regiments of the Japanese army, they can easily defeat them.

"Today is an important day for our independent regiment, because today we will liberate the first county town since our establishment."

"This is just the beginning for our independent regiment. In the near future, we will liberate the first city, the first province, and continue until the Japanese are driven out of our land."

"I'll just quote a saying: When you meet an enemy, you must draw your sword, blood will splatter seven steps away, and the brave will prevail."

"Our independent regiment is a pack of wolves. This time we must bite a piece of meat off the Japanese devils."

Of course, Li Yunlong could not say such profound words. It was Zhao Gang who said them.

Mobilization is exactly what he, as a member of the Communist Party of China, is good at.

Li Yunlong also stood up after Zhao Gang finished speaking.

"I don't have any other requests, just one. Take Ling County for me today. Can you do it?"

"can!"

"can!"

"can!"

Three roars were heard in unison, and the momentum soared into the sky. All the officers were excited at this moment, and their blood was boiling. They couldn't wait to rush into Ling County and kill the Japanese devils.

"Very good, follow my orders."

"tread!"

"All troops will launch an attack on Ling County according to the original plan. The first battalion to enter the city will be rewarded handsomely. When I have good equipment in the future, I will be the first to equip them."

After hearing Li Yunlong's words, the five battalion commanders' eyes lit up.

Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan turned his head to look at Zhang Dabiao and whispered, "This time, the first to enter the city must be our Second Battalion."

Zhang Dabiao smiled disdainfully and said, "Then I'll wait and see. I'm a defeated general."

"set off!"

The independent regiment divided into three groups and surrounded Ling County.

Suddenly, the sky above the entire Ling County was filled with the dark clouds of war.

Lijiazhuang.

This is a village on the outskirts of Ling County with a population of about 300 people. The village is right next to the highway leading to the county seat.

So the Japanese built two concrete gun towers here.

Considering the current firepower of the independent regiment, these concrete turrets may not be of much use.

But for the troops who lacked even grenades, these were two impregnable fortresses.

The Japanese stationed a small team of troops in these two important artillery towers.

The Type 92 heavy machine gun was mounted directly on the firing hole of the gun tower, directly blocking a large area.

When the vanguard of the first battalion appeared on the outskirts of Lijiazhuang, the Japanese soldiers in the artillery tower immediately discovered it.

"The Eighth Route Army? The independent regiment is here. Everyone, be on combat readiness. Report this news to the regiment headquarters immediately."

When the team leader saw a large group of Eighth Route Army coming towards this side, he was immediately shocked.

The famous Independent Regiment lurks nearby. They were the ruthless ones who wiped out the 41st Regiment.

Now, apart from the Independent Regiment, who else would have the courage to attack their artillery tower in broad daylight?

But he didn't know that Li Yunlong's target this time was not their artillery tower, but the county town behind them.

Zhang Dabiao saw two turrets with machine guns and shouted, "Bring the recoilless rifles over here and blow up these two damn turrets for me."

"Yes, battalion commander!"

The anti-tank company itself followed behind them, and soon four 82mm recoilless guns were set up about a kilometer away from the turret.

This was completely beyond the effective fire range of the Japanese heavy machine guns.

Moreover, at this distance, for soldiers who are already proficient in using recoilless rifles, the hit rate can be guaranteed to be over 70%.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh….”

Under the astonished eyes of the Japanese soldiers, four 82mm armor-piercing shells flew out of the barrel and whizzed towards the artillery tower.

Although the turret was made of concrete, even their Type 92 infantry gun could not penetrate the outer wall with a single shot.

But the 82mm armor-piercing shell is specifically designed to do this job.

Concrete buildings are simply unable to withstand the power of armor-piercing shells.

The shell directly blasted through the outer layer of concrete and exploded inside.

The violent energy directly blew the gun tower to one side, causing a deafening explosion.

"Keep going!" It has to be said that compared to ordinary gun towers, these concrete gun towers are indeed more difficult to deal with.

—Even an 82mm shell couldn't completely destroy them.

"Retreat, retreat to the village and use their people as hostages."

The team leader shouted in shock, not caring about his forehead being hit by the stone.

Just as the recoilless gun was being loaded, the Japanese soldiers inside came out of the gun tower one after another.

After a squad of Japanese soldiers was bombed by four artillery shells, only a dozen of them were left.

"Machine gun, kill them."

There are more than a dozen Japanese soldiers exposed on the plain, and they still want to enter the village. Could Zhang Dabiao be so stupid?

The two light machine guns at the entrance of the village began to roar, and the sound of assault rifles also rang out.

The sound of several grenades exploding was heard, and the battle was over in just a few minutes.

"Have the county brigade clean up this place. All the spoils belong to them. The rest of the troops advance at full speed. Our battalion must be the first to break in."

Ling County, headquarters of the 67th Wing.

An officer trotted into the office of the regiment commander Taro Ishihara.

"Baga, don't you know how to knock on the door?"

Taro Ishihara, who was wiping the lieutenant's sword, was so frightened that he almost dropped the sword. He immediately frowned and cursed.

However, the officer was no longer concerned with this and said, "Hey, Your Excellency, the commander of the regiment, there's an urgent telegram outside the city. A large group of Eighth Route Army troops have been spotted moving around. It's suspected that the main force of the Eighth Route Army has been dispatched."

"Almost all the artillery towers outside the city have lost contact with us."

The knife in Ishihara Taro's hand slid onto the table with a clatter. His face was already dazed.

"What? Say it again."

"Sir, we have lost contact with all the artillery towers outside the city."

Before he could react, the second communications officer ran in and said in a panic, "Report to His Excellency, the commander of the regiment, the Eighth Route Army is coming towards our county from all directions, and all the outer fortifications have been lost."

The news made Taro Ishihara look dejected, but he quickly cheered up.

"Immediately request assistance from the Jinyuan direction and tell them that we are under attack by tens of thousands of main forces of the Eighth Route Army, including the Eighth Route Army's independent regiment."

Ling County is right next to the Zhengtai Line Railway, and is only more than 100 kilometers away from Jinyuan.

As long as this telegram for help was sent, reinforcements would arrive soon. Then, soon, another piece of bad news came.

"Reporting to His Excellency, the Commander, our telephones are disconnected from the outside world, and all landline telephones have been cut off."

Taro Ishihara widened his eyes. He knew very well that the Eighth Route Army might be serious this time, and their target was Ling County.

He couldn't help but be shocked by the appetite of the Eighth Route Army. How dare they? But now is not the time to think about these things. Perhaps it is time to be loyal to the empire.

Although their 67th Regiment is a second-line local garrison force, its combat effectiveness is not weak.

He would tell the Eighth Route Army that it was wishful thinking if they wanted to capture Lingxian County without artillery.

"Immediately send all cavalry to break through and make sure to pass on the message."

"At the same time, mobilize a small group of soldiers to disperse along the mountain roads and report the news to the nearest stronghold."

"Hi!"

The cavalry that reported the news would definitely be intercepted, so this was just a cover. The real report was from the team he sent.

Soon the 67th Regiment and a puppet brigade in the city were all in action. The fortifications on and below the city walls were swarming with Japanese soldiers and puppet troops.

Two hours later, the independent regiment that had taken down the Japanese's outer fortifications one after another also arrived in Ling County.

Five infantry battalions firmly surrounded Ling County. Wei Dayong and others in the city had assembled in the early hours of yesterday morning.

Now everyone is crowded in the small warehouse, waiting for the signal from outside the city.

At the Independent Regiment headquarters outside the city, Li Yunlong put down his binoculars and said to the signalman, "Have the artillery unit aim at the Japs' city gates and bomb them to death."
