Anti-Japanese War: I have a million soldiers and you call me a division commander?

"Hahaha!!"

Hearing the words of the combat staff, Liu Yiyun couldn't help but be overjoyed and said with a smile: "Good timing!"

"With the addition of this fresh force, the duration of the battle can be significantly reduced."

On the battlefield now!

After experiencing the first wave of intensive firepower attacks, the Japanese and puppet troops in the ambush circle suffered heavy losses, especially the explosive packs and mines buried on the main road, which caused great casualties to the Japanese and puppet troops.

However, most of the deaths were puppet troops.

The Japanese were very cunning. Among the more than 1,000 Japanese troops, except for the vanguard, which had one squad, and the front third, which had three squads, the rest were puppet troops.

The number of Japanese soldiers in the ambush circle was only one and a half squadrons, more than 300 Japanese soldiers.

One third of the 900 puppet troops were directly lost in the explosion, but the Japanese devils retained most of them. Naturally, the Japanese devils' troops were the only ones with real combat effectiveness among the Japanese puppet troops.

The Japanese were cunning, but Liu Yiyun was not a pushover. The artillery squadron he led was locked down by the artillery battalion before it could deploy.

Five Type 92 infantry guns launched a covering fire attack on the Japanese artillery squadron.

"idiot!!!"

The captain of the Japanese artillery squadron witnessed his men being continuously annihilated by the Eighth Route Army's artillery fire. His eyes were wide open, filled with unwillingness.

"Hurry up, hurry up, save the artillery, save the artillery?"

However, although the casualties were heavy, the Japanese artillery squadron leader could not sit idly by and wait for death. After the artillery battalion's artillery fire wreaked havoc, he immediately rushed forward with the remaining men.

They wanted to drag out the Type 92 infantry gun that had been blown to pieces.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"

But the next moment, the shell flew over again.

The five artillery pieces were useless. As long as someone approached these Japanese Type 92 infantry guns and tried to use them, they would immediately be suppressed by artillery fire.

“Bagya Road!!!”

Seeing his men being blown up again, the Japanese artillery squadron leader, lying on the ground with a mouthful of dirt, angrily cursed: "Have the Eighth Route Army gone crazy? Don't their artillery shells cost money?"

The Japanese artillery squadron was suppressed so badly that the Japanese colonel regiment commander could not pay attention to this for a while. At this moment, he was commanding his troops and wanted to launch an attack on the ambush circle.

According to his idea, he would first take a small hill, find a foothold, and then engage in a good fight with the Eighth Route Army.

For a while, the remaining puppet troops and some Japanese soldiers were enjoying the firepower of the first team in the encirclement.

The Japanese troops outside the encirclement began to gather and prepare to launch an attack.

"Brigade Commander, the supply battalion has already encircled us!"

In the temporary command center, the combat staff came to Liu Yiyun and reported loudly.

"good!!!!"

Upon hearing this news, Liu Yiyun couldn't help but shout, "Order all troops to advance steadily and cautiously, continue to conceal their abilities, and don't expose their ultimate firepower!"

"Once the first battalion's support arrives, we will launch the final attack!"

After the battle started, Liu Yiyun ordered his troops to hide their abilities and not display all their firepower.

I was afraid of scaring the Japanese and making them run away out of fear.

The supply battalion had already encircled and cut off the Japanese's retreat, which meant that these Japanese and puppet troops were like fish on the chopping board, and it was up to Liu Yiyun to decide how to cut them.

However, he was not anxious, but was waiting for the arrival of the first battalion.

Once the first battalion arrives, he will be able to launch the final attack, striving to sweep the Japanese away in one wave, leaving them no room to act or resist.

five minutes!

ten minutes!

fifteen minutes!

twenty minutes!

Before we knew it, half an hour had passed since the battle broke out.

At this time on the battlefield, the Japanese and puppet troops in the ambush circle had been almost wiped out, and the Japanese outside the ambush circle, with the tolerance of Liu Yiyun, took over a small hill that was neither too big nor too small.

At the same time, the situation on the battlefield also changed. The original ambush turned into an encirclement and annihilation battle.

At this moment, footsteps were heard from behind, followed by the voice of the first battalion commander: "Report to the brigade commander, the first battalion is here to report!!!"

Hearing this, Liu Yiyun showed a bright smile on his face: "Hahaha!"

He turned to look at his men, couldn't help but laugh, and asked, "Captain of the First Battalion, you've arrived at the perfect time. How is it going? Can the First Battalion be put into battle?"

"No problem, Brigadier!"

The battalion commander grinned and said confidently when he heard this.

"it is good!"

Liu Yiyun shouted "Great!" and pointed at the seven or eight hundred Japanese and puppet troops who were surrounded. "See? The Japanese have been surrounded by us. Your first battalion's mission is simple: take over the offensive position of the supply battalion."

"Cooperate with the other two combat battalions. I will concentrate all my artillery fire to cover you." At this point, Liu Yiyun checked the time: "It's 12:05 now. Let's try to end the battle by 12:30."

"No problem, I promise to complete the mission!"

Upon hearing this, the battalion commander responded without hesitation.

"Okay, go ahead and get ready for action!"

Liu Yiyun didn't waste any words. He patted the battalion commander on the shoulder and asked him to lead the team to replace the baggage battalion.

"Commander, I have good news for you."

However, the battalion commander did not leave. Instead, he smiled and said, "After we captured the Sanjing Village stronghold and the Sanjing Village iron mine, we found 50 Japanese grenade launchers and a large number of special grenades in the stronghold."

"At the same time, we rescued a group of miners and friendly prisoners of war at the iron mine."

"There are 600 friendly prisoners of war, more than 200 of them are artillerymen and more than 400 are infantrymen. I have temporarily assigned them to my first battalion." After saying this, the battalion commander smiled.

"What the hell?!!!"

Liu Yiyun didn't expect there would be such good news. After a slight pause, he laughed: "Okay, okay, hahahaha, this is nothing, God is helping me!!!"

"More than 600 fresh troops and 50 grenade launchers."

“It’s like adding wings to a tiger, hahahaha!”

"This is equivalent to 50 small-caliber mortars. Combined with our firepower, these little devils are huddled together. I'm going to make them feel what despair is!"

"All in! No need to hesitate, just go all in!!!"

After saying that, Liu Yiyun patted the battalion commander on the shoulder and said, "Go."

"Yes, Brigadier!"

This time, the battalion commander was very decisive. He stood at attention and left in a hurry.

As for the troops of the first battalion, they had already rushed towards the position of the supply battalion under the leadership of the deputy battalion commander.
