Li Congjing chuckled." Otherwise, a frontal assault would indeed cause too many casualties! We can only use our wits now."
After pausing for a few seconds, Li Congjing took a breath and continued to smile."Currently, we have two advantages. First, we have strong troops and strong horses. There is no lack of bravery in battlefield battles. Moreover, we now have five mortars, two grenade launchers, and sufficient ammunition. They could launch a fierce attack from the front and cover the troops that were attacking from behind the cliff! "The other advantage is that we can launch a surprise attack. The bandits of the Black Cloud Stronghold don't know that we have already quietly killed our way to the foot of the Black Cloud Stronghold. With mental calculation and no preparation, the success rate of taking down the Black Cloud Stronghold was quite high. Brothers!"
Luo Tong, Lin Dahai, and Wei Da Yong nodded. They had these advantages.
However, Luo Tong was a little worried." Battalion Commander, I just don't know if the bandits of the Black Cloud Stronghold have deployed troops to guard the cliff behind us. If the sneak attack from behind the cliff fails, the troops behind the cliff will suffer heavy casualties.”
Li Congjing waved his hand and said,"So, I will personally lead the team to attack from the cliff behind the Black Cloud Stronghold!"”。
"Battalion Commander, how can this be? You are the hope of everyone in our new independent camp. Commanding personally is too dangerous. Battalion Commander, you have to consider your brothers!”Luo Tong shook his head and said, disagreeing with Li Yun Long personally leading a team to climb up the cliff behind the Black Cloud Stronghold and launch a sneak attack.
After all, once the bandits on the cliff discovered them, they would most likely be dead if they shot at the horse from above.
To Luo Tong and the others, Li Congjing's military commanding ability was very impressive. Moreover, all the prisoners of war needed a commander who could lead them to fight the Japanese. If Li Congjing was not involved in the sneak attack of the Black Cloud Stronghold, the loss would be too great for everyone.
As expected, Lin Dahai and Wei Dayong expressed their disapproval of Li Congjing's risky actions!
Li Congjing smiled bitterly." I, Li Congjing, am proficient in special operations. Climbing a cliff is a piece of cake for me. Don't worry!"”。
Wei Da Yong shook his head and said,""Battalion Commander, you are the publicly acknowledged Battalion Commander. You brought us out of the prisoner of war camp. Needless to say, once they succeeded, the combat strength of the bandits in the Black Cloud Stronghold was not to be underestimated. Even if they went up the cliff, there would definitely be a fierce battle! If something happens to you, what will happen to our brothers? I, Old Wei, do not agree!"
"I don't agree either!"
"I don't agree either! Battalion Commander!"
Luo Tong and Lin Dahai shook their heads and said. They were very determined to stop Li Congjing from personally leading a team to sneak attack from the cliff behind the Black Cloud Stronghold.
"Then what should we do?" Li Congjing asked. Are any of you familiar with climbing behind enemy lines?”。
"Battalion Commander, don't make it sound so mysterious!”
Luo Tong suddenly smiled and said," This humble servant only knows how to launch sneak attacks. When I was in the 27th division, I personally led a team to the enemy's rear and destroyed a Japanese supply team! Besides, I can also climb and ambush. I'll organize the selection of soldiers who can climb the cliff and launch a sneak attack. I'll personally command and lead the team!”。
"Old Luo, you?" Li Congjing was a little surprised. He did not expect Luo Tong to be so interesting.
"Battalion Commander, what Luo Tong said is right! He was indeed good at commanding behind enemy lines and was very good at climbing battles.”。
Seeing Lin Dahai say so, Li Congjing smiled helplessly and said,""Alright, then Old Luo, immediately select soldiers from each company who can climb the cliff. However, I will only give you twenty people. There are too many of them, and the commotion is too great!"
"Hehehe, I promise to complete the mission, Battalion Commander.”Luo Tong saluted and laughed softly.
Li Congjing nodded and ordered Wei Dayong and Lin Dahai,""As for the rest, Old Wei and Third Company Commander, you will command the rest of the troops. Under the cover of artillery fire, attack the bandits 'machine gun firing points at the mountain pass and the mountains on both sides of the Black Cloud Stronghold. The momentum had to be fierce and attract most of the bandits of the Black Cloud Stronghold to the front to cover Luo Tong's sneak attack.”。
" Understood, Battalion Commander!"
Wei Dayong and Lin Dahai exchanged a glance and said in a low voice.
"Good!"
Li Congjing looked at a watch that was seized from the Japanese captain Ikeda Ryosuke in the Yang Village stronghold. The time on it was already 3:30 in the morning!
"It's now 3:30 in the morning. Five minutes later, five mortars will fire at the Black Cloud Stronghold's mountain pass in front to attract the bandits of the Black Cloud Stronghold! Luo Tong, you can act immediately now!”Li Congjing ordered Luo Tong and the others!
"Yes, Battalion Commander!" Luo Tong and the others received the order and prepared to leave.
At this moment, the Black Cloud Stronghold was deathly silent under the night sky!
However, Xie Baoqing still attached great importance to the defense of his lair, especially the mountain pass in front of the Black Cloud Stronghold. On both sides of the mountain, more than 30 bandits were deployed for defense. There, one man could hold off ten thousand men. The thirty bandits, supported by three machine guns and grenades, were enough to attack the enemies from the foot of the mountain.
Under such circumstances, the Guizi, the Jinsui Army, and the Eighth Route Army could not do anything to the bandits of the Black Cloud Stronghold!
In the Tiger Hall of the Black Cloud Stronghold, bandits were drinking wine and eating meat in large bowls!
It had to be said that Li Congjing came at the right time. At this time, half of the bandits in the Black Cloud Stronghold were already drunk in the Tiger Hall.
Suddenly, in the Tiger Hall of the Black Cloud Stronghold, Xie Baoqing, who was drinking and eating meat with the second-in-command, the Lynx, heard a deafening explosion coming from the mountain pass in front of the Black Cloud Stronghold.
Boom! Boom!”
The bandits who were already drunk could no longer get up. The rest of the bandits who were still sober were immediately kicked by Xie Baoqing's second-in-charge, Shan Lingzi, and shouted," Damn it, the enemy is attacking the Black Cloud Stronghold. Get up!”
"Damn it, tell the brothers to hold on!”Xie Baoqing was extremely furious. How dare you attack my Black Cloud Stronghold at night? He was courting death!
