Li Congjing nodded. The current independent battalion was not considered full. The people from the Black Cloud Stronghold who had temporarily joined the scattered camp had already taken up more than twice the number.
Fortunately, Li Congjing had good tactics and had already subdued most of the captives of the Black Cloud Stronghold after screening.
"Good!"
Li Congjing smiled and pointed to the large plain at the foot of the mountain.""The Black Cloud Stronghold is indeed a dangerous place that is beneficial for long-term defense. As long as we guard the cliff behind the Black Cloud Stronghold and the mountain pass. It was not an exaggeration to say that the Black Cloud Stronghold was impregnable.”。
Li Congjing pointed in the direction of the mountain pass and said,""Currently, the Black Cloud Stronghold is our foothold. You have to know that the Battle of Xinkou has not been long. Now that the devils controlled most of Jin Province, the national army had retreated to the Zhongtiao Mountain area in the south of Jin Province. "Therefore, we should first take a foothold. Next, we might have to face the Japanese encirclement near Pinglu!”。
"We'll deal with whatever comes our way, Battalion Commander. It's not bad to station troops here. It's just that it's very uncomfortable for us to attack the Black Cloud Stronghold's mountain pass. I believe that the Japanese won't be able to conquer the mountain pass!”Third Company Commander Lin Dahai said.
"Don't be careless!" Li Congjing shook his head. Look at the mountain pass. On the left is Xiaojian Mountain, and on the right is Grass Shoes Ridge. Although there was a narrow mountain pass between the two highlands. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, it was at the foot of the mountain. If the enemy wanted to capture the mountain pass, they would basically attack from above! It is beneficial for the garrison to defend the mountain pass. However, once the Japanese pulled in their large-caliber artillery to suppress the firepower of the garrison troops at Grass Shoes Ridge and Small Sharp Mountain, then the Japanese would focus their artillery on the mountain pass. It would not be a problem for them to take down the mountain pass and the highlands on both sides.”。
Wei Dayong, Lin Dahai, and Luo Tong nodded.
During the battle of Xinkou, the Japanese's artillery fire was very fierce. In the first battle, the 27th Division suffered heavy casualties. The Japanese's large-caliber artillery fire came crashing down, and the 27th Division's troops found it difficult to resist. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been defeated by the Japanese and they wouldn't have been captured by them.
Therefore, Li Congjing considered that once the devils knew that they had already occupied the Black Cloud Stronghold, they would definitely mobilize their troops. If the infantrymen couldn't take it down, they would definitely deploy large-caliber cannons to bombard the mountain pass.
Once the defenders could not hold on, it would be difficult for the Black Cloud Stronghold to hold on after losing the important mountain pass!
As for Li Congjing, he was able to command the independent battalion to suppress the bandits at the mountain pass through the night. There was also a sneak attack from the cliff behind the Black Cloud Stronghold. This was also because Xie Baoqing had let down his guard and did not expect someone to sneak up on him. The independent battalion only had less than a company of soldiers.
"Battalion Commander, what should we do?" To deal with the Japanese, it was possible to use large-caliber artillery to bombard the mountain pass and the high ground on both sides of the mountain in the future. Luo Tong, who did not have any heavy artillery, was also out of ideas.
Li Congjing smiled at everyone and said,""Actually, it's very easy to do. We just need to strengthen the mountain pass's defenses!”。
When Luo Tong and the others heard this, they were immediately a little shocked. Battalion Commander was awesome! This idea was not bad!
" Battalion Commander, we found dozens of bags of cement in the warehouse built by Xie Baoqing behind the Black Cloud Stronghold. It should be enough!" Wei Da Yong said immediately.”。
"Good!"
Li Congjing, on the other hand, was looking at a map of Jin Province that was taken from the file bag of Kun Tian Jianyi, the captain of the Kun Tian Squadron. It was a one-in-five-hundred-thousandth map. There was even more Jing Que than the map Li Congjing had seen in his previous body!
Under Little Huzi's gaze, Li Congjing had been looking at the map that had captured Kuntian Jianyi for two to three minutes.
"Hu Zi, immediately bring a few experts and go to Pinglu County to investigate the situation. Let's see if there are any Japanese in the county! In addition, go to the Jinsui Army's 358th Regiment, 1st Battalion, Qian Bojun's encampment to investigate!”Li Congjing suddenly thought of the next target he was going to attack, so he instructed Little Huzi.
"Battalion Commander, shall we attack Qian Bojun's troops next?" asked Little Huzi.”。
Little Huzi obviously knew about the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army. Moreover, Little Huzi seemed to be very familiar with Qian Bojun's situation. He could guess Li Congjing's second target from his expression!
"Yes, Battalion Commander. I have a fellow countryman who is a soldier in the first battalion of the 358th regiment.”Little Huzi said.
