He Daqing, do you know how I've lived these past years?

"Xiao Mei, your tank company has two tanks in the front and two in the rear. Go to the rear and cover the rear."

Seeing Jiang Xiaomei excitedly leading eleven soldiers around, Le You hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"Yes, Commander, but I'm a company commander now. Can we have a full complement of soldiers?"

Xiao Mei looked at Le You longingly and asked.

"Are you thinking of eating methane? There aren't that many tanks. Lu Wang only has a few, but I still formed a motorcycle company. You can use these four for now, and recruit more people if you capture more."

"Yes, Commander."

After Leyou left, he found Qiao Saizhou, who was covered in sweat, and said:

"Sai Zhou, go find their 73rd Army and get some military rations, ammunition, and plenty of diesel fuel. We don't have much diesel left from the captured supplies."

"Okay, brother, I'll go right now."

Watching Sai Zhou's departing figure, Le You smoked a cigarette and continued to patrol the camp.

After three years of hard work, I finally earned a place in the army.

……

early the next morning

Several regimental commanders from the 15th Division arrived at the temporary encampment.

"Leyou, are you going to join the siege of the 47th Division?"

"I saw they suffered heavy losses last time too. You go ahead, I need to get to Dongkou Town immediately; they've started their counterattack there too."

Okay, then I wish us all the best for the future.

Watching the departing regimental commanders, Leyou also assembled his troops. Two tanks and two Luwang vehicles led the way, with two more following behind, and the entire regiment marched rapidly towards the cave entrance.

"Commander,"

"Leader"

Urgent report

Urgent report

"Please provide immediate support to the entrance of the canyon at Dongkou Town. The enemy's 120th and 123rd Regiments, along with the headquarters of the 116th Division, are already launching a full-scale attack. The 133rd Regiment, which we encountered earlier, is also nearby."

Our side only had the 59th Regiment of the 19th Division holding the line. Although the 57th Division of the 74th Army provided support, the enemy fought with their backs to the wall and charged forward despite our air and artillery bombardment. The situation was urgent.

Upon hearing this, Le You hurriedly ordered a full-speed march, and all the tanks and Lu Wang troops that were bringing up the rear were moved to the front.

After more than a day of forced march, they arrived at the battle site. Leyou ordered them to rest on the spot and took out his binoculars to check the surroundings.

What a treacherous place!

Before us stood towering peaks on both sides, with jagged rocks and sheer cliffs that were impossible to climb, like a dog crawling on one.

There are two tunnels in the middle, and below is a green pool of water that looks bottomless.

Suddenly, a series of booming sounds rang out in the sky.

"buzzing"

"buzzing"

Leyou looked up and saw many of our planes flying towards the edge of the canyon.

a moment later

"Boom boom boom"

"Boom boom boom"

The sound of bombs exploding continued, and the firing of infantry guns and mountain guns could be heard not far away.

Leyou hurriedly summoned the messenger and asked him to send a telegram to the 59th Regiment.

They continued to examine the tunnel they had just looked at.

Good heavens, the mountain is covered with stone bunkers, and the tunnel is surrounded by trenches.

A large number of stones were piled up around the tunnel entrance.

"Commander, the 59th Regiment has sent a telegram, instructing us not to go and join them. A battalion from the 170th Regiment of the 57th Division has already gone to provide support."

The enemy has launched a full-scale attack, and the surrounding enemy strongholds are under heavy artillery fire. We request that our regiment launch a pincer attack from the rear to eliminate the enemy strongholds. A rapid deployment force from the 18th Army is coming to provide support from the northeast, and the 57th Division and the Air Force will also provide artillery support.

After pondering for a moment, Leyou ordered all mortars and tanks to concentrate their bombardment on the telegraph and trench defenses on the mountain.

Four Land King tanks charged forward, with all other troops following closely behind, determined to eliminate the enemy in front of them first.

"Boom boom boom"

Under the bombardment of the tanks, machine gun fire immediately erupted from the bunkers on the mountain.

"All mortars, adjust your angles! Infantry guns, bombard the ground! Blow up all the bunkers!"

"Boom boom boom"

"Changshou, Battalion Commander, lead your respective units and charge into the enemy trenches."

Silang, your artillery company will provide rocket launchers and grenade launchers as support.

Fu Gui, your scout team, launch a full-scale assault on the tunnel and spread outwards, with Ping An's motorcycle unit providing support.

"action"

Watching the soldiers charging forward, Leyou kept observing them through his binoculars.

Just then, the bunker on the mountain was suddenly bombarded by another round of artillery fire. This must have been the support from the 57th Division after receiving the telegram.

Seeing that Fugui's scout team had already rushed into the tunnel, Leyou also gripped his binoculars tightly.

"Da da da

"Da da da"

Meanwhile, the sound of a crooked machine gun could be heard coming from inside the tunnel.

"All troops charge! Second Battalion to the tunnel, Third Battalion to support First Battalion and the search team."

Listening to the intense machine gun fire, Leyou paced back and forth.

"boom"

"boom"

"boom"

Suddenly, more than a dozen rocket launchers were fired from the side of the mountain. Leyou hurriedly went to check.

It was a squad of soldiers fully equipped with American gear firing at the bunker.

Some had flamethrowers firing at the bunker entrances.

Thick black smoke filled the mountainside, and the pungent smell of gunpowder could be smelled at Leyou below.

The sun slowly set in the west, and the gunfire ceased on the mountain. The rapid deployment unit on the flank waved to Leyou, turned, and left.

At that moment, the scouts returned and reported:

"Commander, we were attacked by the enemy when we charged forward."

However, we have already captured one of the enemy's strongholds, and the captain and battalion commander want you to go there quickly.”

After speaking, the soldier took out a piece of paper and handed it to Leyou.

Upon closer inspection, Leyou realized it was a topographical map painted by Fugui.

After hesitating for a moment, Leyou gave the order:

"The Third Battalion left two companies behind to clean up the battlefield and transport the wounded."

Xiao Mei, once your four tanks exit the tunnel, fire in a horizontal line to the right.

After exiting the tunnel, the 1st Battalion found cover and fired to the right. The 2nd and 3rd Battalions' 1st Company crawled to the right from the tunnel entrance.

Artillery company, pay attention to the enemy's position. Once the target is clear, bomb them!

The guard company dispersed to provide support in various locations.

Following Leyou's orders, the troops quickly divided up their tasks, and soon the sound of fierce artillery fire rang out again.

The 59th Regiment and the reinforcements, seeing the support from the Leyou Regiment, were energized and began to counter the enemy's firepower.

……

The sun, which hadn't been seen all night, shyly rose from the east, its rays falling on the many soldiers lying on the ground, their gun barrels glowing red and lifeless. The dense gunfire and deafening artillery fire around them seemed to be bidding them farewell.

Having already captured several enemy strongholds, Leyou, seeing the retreating enemy, quickly drew his katana and shouted:

"The entire regiment is to attack!"

Immediately afterwards, the four Land Kings sped toward the enemy like madmen, and the four crooked-neck guns seemed to come alive, constantly emitting blue sparks.

The four tanks roared like bulls as they charged toward the enemy.

Meanwhile, the 59th Regiment and other units began to pursue the enemy.

……

"Leyou, thank you so much, otherwise I would have really been in trouble this time."

Commander Zhong of the 59th Regiment kept thanking Leyou and his colleagues in the rapid response unit.

"They're all on our side; as long as we can eliminate the enemy, that's all that matters."

"I saw the enemy heading towards the river mouth, and I wanted to rush over and give chase, otherwise it would be ridiculous if they got away."

Leyou said to his two colleagues.

Upon hearing this, Commander Zhong burst into laughter:

"Leyou, if you want to do something well, you must first have the right tools. The enemy has lost so much supplies and equipment, and I see your tanks are out of guns. You should replenish your supplies first before you go."

"The 57th Division is guarding the Jiangkou area, and two artillery companies were sent to reinforce it a few days ago. We can take them down after the enemy has been bombarded."

After listening, Leyou nodded and ordered Saizhou to replenish ammunition, while leaving some troops to take care of the wounded.
