Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

The battalion commander immediately passed the news to all the soldiers in the battalion. After hearing the news, the soldiers in the battalion, who were originally a little panicked, immediately became excited.

"Our tanks?"

"When did the independent column have tanks?"

"The Japanese cavalry encountered our tanks. This battle is going to be a big one!"

Soon, under the command of the battalion commander, the first battalion made a gap, allowing the tank company to pass first, and the cavalry battalion followed closely behind to face the Black Island Cavalry Regiment on the opposite side.

"attack!"

A cavalry battalion of the Hei Dao Cavalry Regiment was launching an attack on the position of the 1st Battalion of the 772nd Regiment. Under the cover of grenade launchers, dozens of Japanese cavalry had rushed to the position of the 1st Battalion and were preparing to expand the results of the battle. When they were about to tear a gap in the position of the 1st Battalion, suddenly a burst of rapid gunfire accompanied by a strange engine roar rang out.

"Da da da……"

"Da da da……"

Several tanks lined up in a row and rushed out from the rear of the first battalion's position. The short muzzles of their guns were constantly flashing with flames, and one 7.7mm caliber bullet after another swept towards the group of Japanese cavalry.

"Nani?"

When the Japanese cavalry saw the tiny tanks appearing behind the first battalion, many of them were stunned. These were their tanks, so why were they firing at them?

"It's an enemy tank, retreat!"

The captain of the Japanese cavalry squadron reacted quickly, roared, turned his horse's head and retreated to the rear.

The tanks of the tank company chased out from the rear and continuously fired at the retreating Japanese cavalry.

The soldiers of the cavalry battalion behind him also rushed out and rushed towards the fleeing Japanese cavalry.

"puff!"

Sun Desheng caught up with a Japanese cavalryman and cut him off his horse with one sword. Then he caught up with another cavalryman.

After being caught up, many Japanese cavalrymen knew they could not escape, so they began to fight with the cavalry battalion soldiers on the spot.

At this time, the commander of the Kuroshima Cavalry Regiment, Colonel Kuroshima Morita, a member of the Japanese royal family, was watching the scene happening not far away through a telescope.

"Whose cavalry? And the captured tanks of the 13th Tank Battalion?"

Kuroshima Morita slowly raised his left hand and said, "Order the First Cavalry Battalion to destroy the Chinese cavalry!"

"report!"

Before the messenger beside him could send the order, a signalman came over with a telegram: "The division commander has sent a telegram, the 13th Regiment has been completely destroyed. Order our troops to move south immediately to the Zhongtiao Mountain area!"

"What? The Thirteenth Regiment has been annihilated?"

Kuroshima Morita looked at the contents of the telegram with some surprise, and then looked at the cavalry battalion and chariot company fighting with his own cavalry brigade on the battlefield in the distance.

"Got it. Call the division back. We're being blocked by the Chinese Cavalry Battalion, the Tank Company, and a main force regiment. We're gradually withdrawing from the battle!"

"Hayi!"

Kuroshima Morita took a telescope and glanced at the battlefield in the distance, thinking whether he should eliminate the Eighth Route Army cavalry battalion in front of him before retreating.

But at this time, a staff officer said: "Report, traces of Eighth Route Army troops' activities have been found on the flank!"

"Nani?"

Kuroshima Morita picked up the telescope and looked into the distance. He saw a group of Eighth Route Army soldiers moving quickly towards their rear on a hillside far away from Xiaoliu Village.

"The Chinese are really ambitious. They even want to devour our cavalry regiment!"

Kuroshima Morita couldn't help but snort coldly, but he had already made a decision in his heart. Although his cavalry regiment could deal with the cavalry battalion on the opposite side, it might take some time. At the same time, the opposite side also had tanks and infantry as cover, so it would be difficult to deal with it in a short time.

If the retreat was cut off by the Eighth Route Army on the flank, although the cavalry regiment could easily break through, it would definitely come at a heavy price.

Now that the 13th Regiment has been completely destroyed, his cavalry regiment has no reason to continue fighting, and there is no need to continue wasting time here with the Eighth Route Army.

"Order, the First Cavalry Battalion withdraws from the battle in an orderly manner!"

"Hayi!"

"retreat!"

"Hayi!"

Soon, the Japanese cavalry regiment turned their horses around and retreated to the rear.

Sun Desheng wiped the blood off his face, gritted his teeth and looked at the direction of the Japanese cavalry regiment's retreat. He did not order a pursuit, but breathed a long sigh of relief, and then fell off the horse.

"battalion commander!"

"battalion commander!"

After several soldiers from the cavalry battalion discovered this, they immediately jumped off their horses and hugged Sun Desheng. After a quick examination, they found that Sun Desheng had been shot in the shoulder by a Japanese soldier and had been holding on by gritting his teeth.

"Doctor, doctor!"

One of them shouted while quickly bandaging Sun Desheng to stop the bleeding.

Soon, the field doctor of the 772nd Regiment rushed over, and after checking, he said: "We need to remove the bullet and carry the person to the back first!"

"Yes!"

At this time, Ma Renxin was also bandaging his wounds. He was also injured in the bloody battle with the Japanese just now, and his face was a little pale.

"Send a telegram to the commander: the Japanese cavalry regiment has retreated!"

"Yes!"

"Immediately count the casualties and write down the names of the fallen comrades. Keep them safe and don't miss a single one!"

"Yes!"

In Ping'an County, Li Yunlong was commanding his troops to transfer supplies out of the city.

"Li Yunlong, we've already won the battle, so why are we still transferring supplies?"

Kong Jie asked with some confusion while smoking his pipe.

After hearing this, Li Yunlong rolled his eyes at Kong Jie and said, "Kong Erlangzi, I say you are stupid, and you really are stupid. The Japanese have suffered such a great loss, how can you not take revenge?"

After saying this, Li Yunlong pointed to the sky and said, "The Japanese can't get through with their main force now. How do you think they'll retaliate?"

"bombing?"

Li Yunlong nodded and said, "I guess the Japanese will definitely bomb Ping'an County crazily in the near future. We will come back after the Japanese are done bombing!"

At this time, the signalman walked up to Li Yunlong and said, "Report, Commander, a telegram from the cavalry battalion."

After Li Yunlong took the telegram and took a look at it, a smile appeared on his originally calm face.

The Japanese cavalry regiment retreated, which meant that the battle in Ping'an County was completely over.

Li Yunlong led the independent column, the independent regiment, together with the 386th Brigade Guard Battalion, the 771st Regiment and the 772nd Regiment, successfully recaptured Ping'an County and completely wiped out the Japanese 13th Regiment!

Without excitement or shouting, Li Yunlong calmly walked to Kong Jie, Zhao Gang, the brigade commander and others and hugged them one by one.

"we won!"

Chapter 152 The Battle of Ping'an Gler Ends

"Won!"

"Victory!"

"Didn't we already beat back the devils before?"

Most of the defenders in the city did not understand what Li Yunlong meant by "victory".

They just thought that as long as they could hold on to Ping'an County, they would win.

But they didn't know what a great thing they had done.

With a force of about 4,000, they blocked the attacks of 3,000 Japanese devils for two days.

The Japanese 13th Regiment was successfully annihilated and Ping'an County was successfully recovered. This was the first county town and the first lost land recovered by the domestic army since the start of the war.

Li Yunlong calmly told everyone the news and hugged them one by one. Although he was very excited, he was very restrained because Li Yunlong knew very well that the coming year would be very difficult. This victory was just the beginning of the difficulties he would experience in the coming year.

"Good boy!"

The brigade commander grabbed Li Yunlong's shoulders with both hands and said solemnly that he was very clear about the significance of defending Ping'an County and completely annihilating the Japanese 13th Regiment.

Li Yunlong was also very clear about the importance of this battle. In his previous life, when everyone was discussing the attack on Ping'an County, they would joke that the Battle of Ping'angle was the turning point of World War II.

But today, Li Yunlong can loudly announce that the Ping'an County defense battle he fought was a turning point on the domestic battlefield.

Completed the start from zero to one.

Let all the armies, whether they are the National Army or the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, see that lost territory is not impossible to recover. When the numbers are equal, the Japanese are not invincible, and a Japanese regiment can be wiped out as a whole.

"Commander Li, Brigade Commander, let me take a picture of you!"

At this moment, a soldier walked up to Li Yunlong and the brigade commander with a camera and said with a smile.

"it is good!"

Li Yunlong solemnly adjusted his military uniform and stood in front of the Ping'an County city wall with the brigade commander standing next to him. Both of them looked at the camera with smiles on their faces.

"very good!"

"Crack!"

In the camera frame, Li Yunlong and the brigade commander stood side by side. Behind them was a section of the city wall with a breach, with the corpses of Japanese soldiers everywhere, and soldiers cleaning up the battlefield. At the edge of the photo, the three big words "Ping'an County" could be clearly seen.

"Zhu Ziming, give me a photo of the brigade commander too."

At this time, Kong Jie walked out from the side, dusted his pipe with the sole of his shoe, put the pipe into his waist, and stood next to the brigade commander.

When Li Yunlong heard Zhu Ziming's name, he looked over in surprise. Zhu Ziming actually had a smile on his face and was holding a camera, taking pictures of Kong Jie and the brigade commander.

After the filming was finished, Li Yunlong asked, "Do you have a lot of film?"

"Commander Li, this is a camera captured from the Japanese. I checked it and found twelve boxes of film and six boxes of blank film."

Zhu Zhiming took out the confiscated film from his body.

Li Yunlong looked at Zhu Ziming, thought for a moment and said, "How many photos can you take?"

"It's 120 film. One box can take fifteen photos."

"Then please take a photo of the soldiers of our independent column. Let's take a group photo of each company!"
