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

"Who cares? Just beat him."

When the Japanese army approached to about 200 meters from the position, a burst of fierce gunfire broke out from the second battalion's position.

Automatic rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and mortars madly poured ammunition on the Japanese army.

Bullets came like a storm, and the Japanese soldiers in the front began to fall in large numbers.

The Japanese troops in the rear continued to charge forward under the hail of bullets without hesitation.

Although their combat effectiveness is relatively weak, their fighting spirit is beyond reproach.

"What? Are all the Eighth Route Army's equipment for assault?"

When he saw such fierce firepower coming out of the position, Yamano Nakao immediately felt something was wrong.

At this moment, the words his companion had said before emerged in his mind.

"If you find that the Eighth Route Army on the other side has very fierce firepower and is equipped with submachine guns capable of continuous fire, then there is no doubt that the enemy is the Eighth Route Army's independent regiment."

"If you encounter this army, don't charge, retreat immediately."

"If you can't retreat, wait for reinforcements where you are. Perhaps you still have a chance of survival."

Yamano Nakao said unconvincedly, "They are just the Eighth Route Army. How can we be afraid of imperial soldiers?"

His companion looked at him speechlessly and said, "The last person to say that was the commander of the 41st Division."

41st Division.

Although more than 41 people from the st Division escaped, they were not completely wiped out.

However, this division had already been sentenced to death within the Japanese army, and its number had been directly revoked.

Yamane Nakafu was shocked when he thought of this and shouted, "Retreat, stop the attack."

"Sir, what's wrong?"

"Although the Eighth Route Army's firepower is fierce, with the bravery of the Imperial warriors, they will definitely be able to take it down."

Yamano Nakafu's heart trembled and he said, "Independent Regiment, the other party is the Independent Regiment."

"Yes. Your Excellency, Captain, I will arrange the retreat immediately."

"Drip drip drip..."

The sharp whistle was very penetrating, and it was the signal to retreat.

The Japanese army, which launched an attack on the second battalion's position like a tide, also retreated like a tide.

"Oh no! The Japs are about to run away! Let Zhang Dabiao take action! Quick!"

Needless to say, Zhang Dabiao, who was very keen on grasping the opportunity, knew after seeing this scene that the Japanese wanted to escape.

"Blow the charge and kill them!"

After saying that, Zhang Dabiao jumped out and led his troops to attack from the side of the 312th Regiment.

The charge was also sounded at the second battalion's position, and all the soldiers held automatic rifles and fired as they marched.

The retreating Japanese troops were caught off guard.

The retreat turned directly into a rout.

An hour later, the battle here was over.

This time, more than a thousand Japanese soldiers were killed, and the remaining Japanese soldiers were allowed to escape.

Although this little Japanese soldier doesn't seem to have much combat power, he is still a real headache when he fights for his life.

"Damn it! If they hadn't run so fast, I would have kept them all here today."

After gathering the remaining troops, Yamano Nakao hastily retreated to Yangquan.

When I went out in the morning, the Japanese were still very majestic.

Why are they back at noon? And they look like they were beaten pretty badly, with quite a few wounded.

The people were very surprised after seeing this scene.

"The little devils are at a disadvantage."

"Isn't it? Do you think it's the Eighth Route Army that's fighting back?"

"It's very possible. It would be great if the Eighth Route Army could fight back."

Major General Kawatani, commander of the 115th Division, slapped Yamano Nakao in the face, stunning him.

"Baga, you dare to come back? I need a reason why the troops suffered such heavy losses."

Yamano Nakao covered his face and cried out in injustice: "Your Excellency, the division commander, it was the independent regiment. We encountered the independent regiment."

After hearing the words "Independent Regiment", Major General Kawatani's pupils shrank and he shouted, "How is this possible? Isn't the Independent Regiment in Ling County? How could they come to our Yangquan?"

"You're just making excuses for your defeat. You're dead."

Yamanaka Fu immediately became anxious.

"Your Excellency, the Division Commander, it is indeed an independent regiment. They only have a few hundred people, but their firepower is higher than that of our entire regiment."

"And all they were equipped with were those submachine guns."

Seeing that Yamano Nakao was so confident, Major General Kawatani also became a little skeptical.

However, it seems that only the independent regiment can cause them to lose more than a thousand people within a few hours.

You have to know that this is the strength of a battalion.

But he still confirmed it.

If Yamano Nakao dared to lie, he would chop him to pieces.

However, after asking many people, what they said was basically the same as what Yamano Nakao said.

Moreover, it can be confirmed from these scattered intelligence that the other party is indeed the Independent Regiment.

This made Major General Kawatani feel a little upset.

The shadow of a famous tree.

The Independent Regiment and Li Yunlong have become an opponent that most Japanese troops do not want to encounter.

"Baga, why are they running to Yangquan instead of staying in Ling County? Could it be..."

Suddenly his pupils shrank and he wanted Ling County again.

"Could it be that the Independent Regiment wants to replicate the Battle of Ling County?"

But they are not the 67th Regiment, but an entire division.

Does the independent regiment have the courage to attack Yangquan where an entire division is stationed?

But he didn't dare to gamble, and wasn't the independent regiment the target that the commander wanted to eliminate this time?

As long as he could keep the independent regiment here and wait for the arrival of reinforcements, it would be a great achievement.

By the time the independent regiment is annihilated, won’t his contribution be insufficient?

As for letting the 115th Division take the initiative to attack and annihilate the Independent Regiment, he was not so stupid as to do so.

If this independent regiment was so easy to deal with, the commander would have taken care of it long ago.

So he contacted Taiyuan directly.

"What? The Independent Regiment fled to Wild Wolf Valley in Yangquan? Is this news accurate?"

Yoshio Shinozuka, who was in charge of the mopping-up operation, jumped up and asked when he heard the news.

"Reporting to the Commander, a regiment of the 115th Division has engaged the enemy and lost over a thousand Imperial warriors in less than three hours."

"And based on the description of the firearms and firepower, it fits the characteristics of an independent regiment very well."

Yoshio Shinozuka took a deep breath, nodded, and a bloodthirsty smile appeared on his face.

"Yo, we finally found the Independent Regiment. This Wild Wolf Valley is the burial place of Li Yunlong and his Independent Regiment."

"Order the 9rd Tank Division to move south, and the th Mixed Brigade to cut off the Independent Regiment's retreat route to Ling County."

A tank division, plus a 115th division and a mixed brigade.

This time, the independent regiment has no chance of escaping.

The 3rd Tank Division is an ace in his hand.

Used to deal with an independent regiment, it is considered a great respect for Li Yunlong

"Main Mission: Assist the Independent Regiment to successfully complete the mission and break out."

"Reward: The greater the damage inflicted on the Japanese invaders, the higher the completion rate."

When Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan just started fighting, Li Jingrong heard the task reminder from the system.

This task may seem easy, but it is actually quite difficult.

Li Jingrong's head began to hurt as he looked at the Japanese military intelligence provided by the system.

"The Japs are really spending a lot of money this time."

Then he took the information and walked into the temporary regimental command headquarters.

Seeing his heavy face, Li Yunlong asked with concern: "Brother, did something happen?"

Li Jingrong nodded and said, "Captain Li, Commander Zhao, I have obtained detailed information on the Japanese army's deployment and strength. Let me explain it to you."

After hearing his words, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were both shocked.

Li Jingrong came to the hanging map and pointed at the nearest Yangquan with his stick and said, "The Japanese troops currently stationed in Yangquan are the 115th Division."

"The 21st Division and the 9th Brigade are stationed in Ling County."

"The 33rd Division is stationed in the Shouyang area."

"The 35th Division is stationed in Leping to the south."

"There is also the 14th Division in Taiyuan as a reserve force."

Li Yunlong couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "The Japanese have deployed four divisions and one brigade to form a huge encirclement of the entire Jinzhong base."

Originally, Li Yunlong thought that the Japanese would at most send out two or three divisions to carry out a sweep of Jinzhong.

After all, the entire western Shanxi has three major bases and several more scattered bases.

The troops under Yoshio Shinozuka's command are definitely not enough.

But no one expected that Yoshio Shinozuka would be so crazy this time. He dispatched four divisions plus a brigade, and also had a division as a reserve.

Its total military strength reached 100,000.

You have to know that these are 100,000 Japanese troops.

Take the Battle of Taierzhuang for example, the Japanese army only had 5 troops participating in the battle.

This time, the Japanese army dispatched 100,000 troops to encircle the Jinzhong area, which also shows Yoshio Shinozuka's determination.

"In addition to these four divisions, the Japanese army also stationed a 3rd Tank Division in Datong. Now this division has moved south. If my guess is correct, we might be their target."

"The 3rd Division? Isn't the 3rd Division part of the Japanese Central Front Army?"

Zhao Gang asked doubtfully.

Li Jingrong shook his head and said, "This 3rd Tank Division is not the same as the 3rd Division. This division is a mechanized unit of the Japanese army, and its main combat equipment is tanks."

"tank?"

Li Yunlong couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard this.

"That little devil Shinozuka Yoshio really thinks highly of me, Old Li, by actually mobilizing tanks to deal with me."

"Brother, do you know the situation of this tank division?"

He had never come into contact with the Japanese tank units.

If we don't understand the details of this army, we will probably suffer losses.

李景荣点头说道：“战车第三师团下辖战车第5旅团、战车第6旅团、机动步兵第3联队、机动炮兵第3联队，共计6个联队。”

"The Japanese tank regiments don't have many soldiers, with each regiment having only a little over 1000 men."

"But tank regiments are mainly based on tanks and motorized vehicles."

"Take the 5th Tank Regiment of the 13th Brigade, for example."

"This wing is equipped with 14 Type 57 light tanks, 27 Type medium tanks, and wheeled armored vehicles."

"This tank division has four such regiments."

"The entire division is equipped with 56 Type 228 light tanks, 108 Type 100 medium tanks, wheeled armored vehicles, and nearly armored personnel carriers of various types."

"This mobile artillery wing is equipped with 12 75mm field guns and 24 105mm howitzers."

"Now do you understand what kind of unit the 3rd Tank Division is?"
