Li Congjing nodded and did not deny Luo Tong's words." That's right, so we have to end this quickly. The key to this battle is to take down Qian Bojun's 1st Battalion! According to Hu Zi's report, Qian Bo Jun and a few of his trusted aides are still in his battalion. This is our best chance. If they could take down all the leaders of the 358th Regiment's 1st Battalion, then they would have won half the battle!”
Luo Tong continued," If we attack the central army, I feel that we can concentrate our forces and attack the town from the north. This place is less than 200 meters away from Qian Bojun's camp in Li Family Town. We can reach it with a charge! In addition, when we attack, concentrate the artillery fire and blow up Qian Bojun's battalion artillery position!”。
"Luo Tong is right!"
Li Congjing nodded and pointed at the general situation map of Li Family Town on the ground with a branch."Wei Ming, you command five mortars. Can you take out the artillery position in Qian Bojun's 1st Battalion? It was about fifty meters behind the main gate of the battalion!”。
The person Li Congjing called was a veteran who was good at artillery tactics and was picked out from the prisoners of war. He was not promoted because of his straightforward personality. But in the Black Cloud Stronghold, after Li Congjing selected Wei Ming, he found that this kid's artillery command tactics were very strong. It was a waste of talent to be an infantry.
As expected, Luo Tong, Wei Da Yong, and the others all knew Wei Ming. They knew that when this kid was in the 27th division of the central army, he was scolded for being frank. However, his artillery command ability was still very strong. He didn't attack wherever he pointed, but he was still comparable to Li Yunlong's independent regiment artillery expert, Wang Chengzhu.
Wei Ming looked at the spot Li Congjing pointed at and chuckled." Battalion Commander, no problem. With five mortars and a round of cluster bombing, it was guaranteed that they would be able to destroy the artillery positions in Qian Bo's camp!”
Li Congjing then continued,"This time, we attacked Li Jia Town. Our strategy is to attack the enemy's central army. Li Jia Town, the town where Qian Bojun's camp is located. As long as Qian Bojun's battalion was taken out, they could at least capture the main military commander of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army. Then, the battle of Li Town would basically be no problem! Da Yong, Luo Tong, the two of you command your respective companies and beat them up ruthlessly! From the north to the south, straight to the Li family town Qian Bojun camp!“。
"Yes, Battalion Commander!"
"Good!"
"Yes, Battalion Commander!" Everyone nodded in understanding!
Everyone responded in a low voice and then dispersed to rest and replenish their ammunition.
Li Congjing, under Hu Zi's protection, walked to the front of the main group's hiding place. He leaned against a big tree and looked in the direction of Li Family Town, which was less than five miles away, with binoculars.
......
At this moment, in Li Town!
Therefore, there weren't many commoners in Li Family Town. After all, a reinforced battalion of the Jinsui Army was stationed here for many years. The people in the town could not stand it. After all, the soldiers of the 358th Regiment under Qian Bojun's jurisdiction were not very disciplined.
At this moment, in Li Jia Town, the soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army had nothing to do. Because their battalion commander Qian Bojun and his confidant had been secretly communicating with Ichiro's special envoy, they could not care less about the training of the troops.
Therefore, it was early in the morning in the town, and the Jin Suijun soldiers under Qian Bojun were all wandering around!
However, no matter what happened in the town, Qian Bojun, the deputy battalion commander, Zhang Fugui, and a few other confidants had contacted the people of Hirada Ichiro a few hours ago. Ichiro Hirata temporarily agreed to Qian Bojun's conditions.
After all, if Qian Bojun led his troops to join the Imperial Army, Ichiro Hirata was worried that some of the soldiers of the Jin Suijun Army would not follow him.
One had to know that Qian Bojun's troops belonged to Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army. Ichiro Hirata knew that Chu Yunfei could not be underestimated. Regarding Qian Bojun's request, Ichiro Hirata sent someone to inform the two devils that he could.
Qian Bojun, Zhang Fugui, and a few other trusted aides secretly heaved a sigh of relief when they heard it from the special envoy, Ichiro Hirata.
After all, Li Town wasn't far from Chu Yunfei's main camp. A quick march would be enough to reach Li Town. Qian Bojun knew that once he led his troops to join the Japanese, Chu Yunfei would come personally to kill him.
At that time, once Chu Yunfei led his army over, most of Qian Bojun's troops would definitely turn around and attack! One had to know that the 1st Battalion was Chu Yunfei's old unit. While Qian Bojun was in charge of the 358th Regiment, he had secretly replaced the officers, soldiers, and other low-level officers who were loyal to Chu Yunfei.
"Battalion Commander, there's no time to lose. I think we have to pull the troops out before Chu Yunfei makes a move! Otherwise, once Chu Yunfei finds out that we are secretly communicating with Ichiro, he will definitely take action!”Qian Bojun's deputy battalion commander, Zhang Fugui, said to himself.
"Good! Ichiro Hirata has already agreed that once we join the Imperial Army, he will immediately give us a regiment! I am the brigade commander, and Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang is the regiment commander! The rest of the brothers are all battalion commanders! Haha! I worked my ass off in Chu Yunfei's army, but I was still a small battalion commander. People strive for higher ground, and water flows downwards. I'm sorry, Chu Yunfei.”
Qian Bojun nodded with a smile and continued,"Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang, personally send someone to inform Ichiro Hirata that we will take action tomorrow morning!”。
"Yes, Battalion Leader!" Zhang Fugui chuckled.
However, before Qian Bojun, Zhang Fugui, and the rest of the fools could laugh at the fact that they had defected to the devils, a sharp screech suddenly came.
Qian Bojun's ears did not stop working. When he listened carefully, his expression changed drastically.
" Not good, cannon fire!!!" Qian Bojun's expression changed drastically. The ear-piercing whistling sound was the result of the high speed of the cannonball in the air and the difference in air magic!
Zhang Fugui and a few other Japanese who were discussing in secret in the side room heard it one by one. This was obviously a bombardment!
Sure enough, not even a few seconds after they ran out of the gate of the camp, artillery shells suddenly came whistling from the north.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, Qian Bojun's battalion exploded. The patrolling soldiers of the Jin Suijun Army in the battalion headquarters were blasted into chaos!
"Quick, get into battle position and counterattack!”Qian Bojun shouted. The scale of this artillery bombardment was at least an artillery company!
"Quick, quick, quick! Artillery in position! Find the enemy's artillery position!”
"Battalion Commander, half of the troops are resting today!"”。
"Damn it, no matter what, gather the troops and enter the battle position! Whose troops are attacking our Li Family Town?”Qian Bojun gritted his teeth. This was too tricky.
At this time, outside the northern side of Li Family Town, Wei Ming was commanding the artillery. He was operating five mortars and bombarding the artillery positions in Qian Bojun's camp!
Li Congjing learned from Hu Zi's investigation that Qian Bojun's troops had at least five 70mm mountain cannons 50 meters behind the gate of his battalion. However, mountain cannons could crush mortars, so there was nothing to regret. Li Congjing could only order Wei Ming to launch the first round of artillery fire to take out the artillery positions in Qian Bojun's camp in Li Family Town.
As expected, Qian Bojun saw the first thing he saw was the artillery shells landing on the location where he had placed the cannons.
However, the dense barrage of artillery shells whistled through the air, and several mortar shells landed less than 20 meters away from Qian Bojun. The soldiers protecting Qian Bojun were so frightened that they hurriedly pulled the two devils to the side to hide." Battalion Commander, hide!”
"Counterattack! Counterattack! Kill all the enemies!”Qian Bojun roared in anger!
"Yes, Battalion Leader!" Qian Bojun's advisor shouted.
Looking at where they were, Wei Ming's artillery shells were like locusts, and they had the momentum of an artillery battalion!
As Qian Bojun roared, Li Congjing waved his hand and personally commanded Wei Da Yong and Luo Tong to lead most of the troops under the cover of Wei Ming's artillery fire and charge towards Li Family Town.
Two Type 92 heavy machine guns on the left and right, and seven light machine guns along with the infantrymen provided cover fire. They successfully broke into Li Jia Town.
Because it was the weekend, and in order to confuse Chu Yunfei, Qian Bojun let half of the soldiers rest on this day.
Facing the sudden attack of Li Congjing and the others, he was actually stunned.
After they reached the gate of Qian Bojun's camp, the fierce resistance made Zhang Fugui, who was in charge of commanding the counterattack, hurriedly retreat to the depths of the camp to find Qian Bojun." Battalion Commander, we can't hold on anymore. The enemy has attacked the gate of the camp!”
