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

At this moment, the anti-artillery radar also transmitted the data of the Japanese artillery positions.

The artillery shells carrying the anger of the independent regiment whizzed away.

At the artillery position, the Japanese artillery were busy moving.

They were well aware of the strength of the independent regiment's artillery unit and had to retreat immediately after each round of fighting.

However, the speed is still a little slow.

The vengeful shells fell, and in an instant the 152mm shells exploded.

However, the Japanese were not stupid and did not pile up poison gas bombs around.

"Report to the division commander, all four guns have been destroyed."

Major General Kawatani nodded silently. He had already anticipated this result.

Nobita Kamijima's expression changed slightly.

"How did the Eighth Route Army's artillery division do it? The artillery positions were temporary, and they only fired one round of artillery shells."

"How can they achieve such high accuracy without any calibration?"

Major General Kawatani shook his head and said, "I'm also curious about this. After we take over Wild Wolf Valley, we'll find out after interrogating Li Yunlong."

Uejima Nobita smiled and nodded, saying, "Well, your Excellency the Major General, you are right."

Then he said to the officer beside him: "Gather all the tanks. Once the poison gas dissipates, launch an attack immediately. We must seize this high ground before the Eighth Route Army reinforcements arrive!"

"Hi!"

The poison gas bombs launched by the Japanese army were easy to evaporate and the quantity was not large. In less than an hour, the poison gas had dissipated.

More than 50 tanks and more than 313 people from the th Regiment launched an offensive on the position.

This time they must take the high ground in front of them.

Under the cover of tanks, the Japanese army was extremely cautious when approaching Hill 207.

However, when they arrived at the foot of the mountain, there was no movement on the high ground.

This made the Japanese army very happy. It seemed that their poison gas offensive had worked, and all the Eighth Route Army soldiers above were killed by poison gas bombs.

"attack!"

Faced with this kind of high ground, the Japanese tanks could not drive up there, and they could only cover the attack at the foot of the mountain.

However, at this moment, a large number of Eighth Route Army soldiers emerged from the high ground positions.

The first to come under concentrated fire were the tanks.

Recoilless rifles, Type 69 rocket launchers and Type 85 large-caliber heavy machine guns are all targeted at them.

The remaining soldiers fired at the Japanese troops rushing up the mountain.

Bullets and shells rained down in a volley.

The arrogant tanks were destroyed one by one under the attack of artillery shells and armor-piercing bullets.

In an instant, half of these iron turtles were lost.

With relatively effective protection, the poison gas bombs did not cause too many casualties.

So when the Japanese attacked, they chose to fight close to them, so that they could effectively kill them.

Despite the heavy losses, the Japanese did not retreat this time, but continued to attack the high ground.

Instead, the tanks became targets.

It is obvious that the Japanese have not yet figured out the coordination between infantry and tanks.

The Japanese attacking forces restricted the movement of the tanks.

However, some Japanese tanks still moved regardless, even if they crushed the soldiers of the 313th Regiment.

But their actions did not save the city from destruction.

As they were the focus of attention, how could the anti-tank firepower of the first battalion let them escape?

Although more than 50 tanks were a large number, they could not withstand such intensive anti-tank firepower.

In this regard, Li Jingrong has armed the independent regiment with anti-tank capabilities to the teeth.

Individual rocket launchers, recoilless rifles, and large-caliber machine guns.

These anti-tank firepower covers the range from 10 meters to 1700 meters.

As for the tank being more than 1700 meters away, there is no need to worry at all.

Li Jingrong also plans to equip them with the first generation of Red Arrow 73 anti-tank missiles.

Although this anti-tank missile uses visual aiming, its hit rate is still very high after training.

Moreover, the Red Arrow 73 can not only be used to attack tanks, but also to attack fortifications, command posts and other targets at long distances.

However, the Japanese army's grenade launchers also caused considerable casualties to the first battalion.

There were gaps in many firing points.

The Japanese troops of the 313th Regiment attacked Hill 207 like crazy.

However, the firepower advantage of the first battalion played a big role at this time.

Especially with the cooperation of the Type 81 automatic rifle and the Type 81 light machine gun, they formed a steel bullet direction that the Japanese army could not cross at all.

However, the Japanese army had an absolute advantage in manpower.

Besides, the Japanese soldiers would not just stand there and let them kill them.

Although the 115th Division is a special division, it is not a mob.

Relying on the wreckage of the tank to fight back still caused some trouble to the first battalion.

"Order the 312th Regiment to launch an attack. Capture Hill 207 at all costs!"

Li Yunlong watched the fierce battle that broke out on Hill 207 and said, "Let the Sixth Battalion reinforce the First Battalion. It's time for those new recruits to see some blood."

On the other side, all agencies at the headquarters have been evacuated safely.

"I wonder how the fight is going over there with Li Yunlong?"

After hearing the commander's question, the deputy chief of staff smiled and said, "Li Yunlong is a very cunning fellow. You don't have to worry about him at all. It's better to follow the 129th Division to break out. The road ahead is not easy."

The boss snorted coldly and said, "This Shinozuka Yoshio really thinks he can stop us with just one division. What a joke."

"Let's break out quickly. Li Yunlong has attracted too many troops. We must break out quickly to reduce their casualties."

The staff officer beside him said in confusion, "Boss, why is Li Yunlong so hated? Almost all the Japanese in Jinzhong are going after him."

The boss held up two fingers and said, "There are two reasons."

"One is that Shinozuka Yoshio underestimated the 129th Division. Aside from the independent regiment, the rest of the troops were just peasants."

"Secondly, they feel threatened by Li Yunlong's rise, so they want to nip this threat in the bud."

"This is more important than destroying our army's headquarters."

"After all, if the headquarters is gone, it only means we are missing a few of us. Our army still has thousands of commanders, but there is only one independent regiment."

"Okay, it's almost time to go. Have the rest of the agencies been evacuated?"

The staff officer stood at attention and replied, "Sir, everyone has withdrawn. We are the only ones left."

The boss waved his hand and said, "Let's go, otherwise the Japanese planes will come again soon."

"Notify the Independent Regiment and let them withdraw as well."

Relying on the anti-aircraft firepower consisting of dozens of Type 54 anti-aircraft machine guns, the headquarters has driven away two waves of Japanese fighter planes.

That tragedy did not happen during this evacuation.

With the evacuation of the headquarters, the 129th Division began to use all its assets to launch an offensive against the defense line formed by the Japanese 21st Division.

The headquarters' heavy artillery regiment and the 129th Division's heavy artillery unit, a total of 64 122mm heavy howitzers participated in this operation.

The long-range artillery fire directly stunned the 21st Division.

Although the Japanese had air cover, the dense anti-aircraft machine gun fire prevented the Army Aviation aircraft from acting as recklessly as before.

With the cooperation of light and heavy machine guns, a big gap was torn in the direction of the 21st Division.

With one attack, an entire battalion of troops was wiped out.

Although compared with the Type 81 automatic rifle, the performance of the Type 56 automatic rifle seems to be lagging behind.

But in this era, there is no doubt that the Type 47 automatic rifle, which was copied from the AK56 assault rifle, is powerful.

On the way to the charge, they could easily suppress the Japanese firepower.

The headquarters successfully passed through this gap and jumped out of the encirclement.

The 129th Division also continued to cover the troops moving northwest.

As long as you reach the mountainous area in northwest Shanxi, you will feel like you have a vast sea and the sky is high, and birds can fly freely.

"Baga, are all the 21st Division members a bunch of losers? Why did they let the Eighth Route Army break through so easily?"

When Yoshio Shinozuka heard that the 21st Division's defense had been torn apart, he immediately turned into an angry lion.

He just received a telegram from Yangquan.

The war went extremely badly and their losses were very, very heavy.

Needless to say, the Army Aviation lost hundreds of fighter planes.

The 17th Field Heavy Artillery Regiment was completely wiped out, with a total of 18 150mm heavy cannons destroyed.

A tank regiment of the 3rd Tank Division was annihilated.

The 115th Division has lost an entire regiment of its troops so far.

Such a rate of loss was unprecedented even in previous major battles, and they were facing only an independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

The most important thing is that this is only the first line of defense of the Independent Regiment in Wild Wolf Valley.

But they blocked their tank division and infantry division.

"Commander, this Eighth Route Army unit is heavily armed, equivalent to our army's heavy artillery brigade."

"They were also equipped with the automatic firepower of the Independent Regiment. They had at least 30,000 soldiers, and all of them were equipped. They directly suppressed our firepower, which led to the defense line being breached so quickly."

The Chief of Staff of the 21st Division, who was sent to be scolded, said with great frustration.

"What? Where did the Eighth Route Army get so many troops, and they're all equipped with automatic weapons?"

Yoshio Shinozuka was shocked.

After 40 years of mopping-up operations, the 129th Division was reduced to just over troops.

I didn't expect them to recover so quickly, and they are now equipped with automatic firearms.

It must be such a deep blue. I didn’t expect that he had already started to provide weapons and equipment to the entire Eighth Route Army.

At this time he also realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Order the 21st Division, the 9th Mixed Brigade, and the 14th Division to pursue the Eighth Route Army's breakout forces and annihilate them in the Jinzhong Plain area."

"Hi!"

Another officer asked, "Commander, what about the Independent Regiment?"

Shinozuka Yoshio took a deep breath and said, "Mobilize the 33rd Division, the 35th Division, and the 6th and 8th Divisions of the Imperial Army to surround the entire Wild Wolf Valley."

"Attack from all directions. I don't believe a small independent regiment can withstand the siege of the imperial army."

In the direction of Wild Wolf Valley, the fierce battle is still going on.
