Liu Ming only came back to his senses after Li Yunlong left. He quickly looked down at the shell gun in his hand and realized that the magazine was missing.
"This…"
"The clip is here."
Hu Zi showed him the magazine in his hand. Li Yunlong had thrown it to him before he left.
Hu Zi smiled and said to Liu Ming,"
"What kind of ability is seeking death? If you have the ability, follow us to the battlefield to fight the devils and avenge your brothers who died in the 9th Army!”
As he spoke, Hu Zi threw the clip to Liu Ming, who was kneeling on the ground, and then smiled smugly."
"Do you know who our Guild Leader is?”
"Who is it?"
"The new regiment commander of the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, Li Yunlong!”
"Your army is the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army?!”
Upon hearing Hu Zi's words, Liu Ming immediately stood up and stared at Hu Zi with widened eyes."
"The new regiment commander Li Yun Long who defeated the Sakata Regiment and killed their commander in the Battle of Ashen Cloud Ridge?!”
"Hehe, you've heard of our Guild Leader?”
"Of course!"
After finding out Li Yunlong's identity, Liu Ming's entire spirit changed. He looked extremely excited and said,"
"In the Battle of Xinkou, it was this Sakata United Army that defeated two divisions of our Central Army. At that time, our 9th division was fighting against the Sakata United Army. We surrounded a few mountains and repeatedly saw each other. Many of my brothers fought to the death in the hands of the Sakata United Army.
Your regiment commander defeated the Sakata United Army and killed their commander. It can be considered as revenge for my dead brothers!”
"Don't get agitated. Also, it's not your regiment commander, but our regiment commander, understand?”
“... Yes!"
If it was any other Eighth Route Army unit, Liu Ming would really have to consider it. After all, his impression of the Eight Route Army was that they were all unsophisticated and had poor equipment. If he wanted to fight the Japanese, he would still be willing to return to the Central Army. If not, it would be good for the Jinsui Army.
However, since the 8th Route Army had defeated the new regiment of the Sakata United Army, Liu Ming had nothing else to say. He would just follow Li Yunlong, who had avenged the 9th Army, to fight the Japanese!
……
After subduing Liu Ming, the Cavalry officer, Li Yunlong was in a good mood. He hummed a tune as he watched the new group of soldiers move the spoils of war.
However, before his happy mood lasted long, he saw Bai Xian rushing over with two bodyguards.
"Regiment Commander Li, I'm afraid your army won't have the time to slowly transport the spoils of war.”
"Hmm? Brother Bai Xian, what's the situation?”
"The Japanese soldiers near Wan Jia Town have already reacted. The nearest Yu County has already sent a squadron to Wan Jia Town.”
"A squadron?"
Hearing Bai Xian's words, Li Yunlong frowned.
A Japanese squadron usually had between 194-250 people. Li Yunlong only had the Second Battalion after the Battle of Cangyun Ridge. After deducting the casualties from the Wanjia Town battle, there were nearly 300 soldiers, which was 3:2 with the Japanese army.
However, in general, the Japanese army was much stronger than the Eighth Route Army, and the Second Battalion was responsible for transporting spoils of war and escorting prisoners. The number of troops that could be put into battle was even smaller, close to 1:1.
“... Leave behind the fourth company, the fifth company, and the sixth company to prepare to stop the Japanese.”
"Commander Li, I'm afraid not."
Bai Xian frowned and said,"
"In order to eliminate the puppet army of Wan Jia Town, we have already gone deep alone. Although there are your army and the national army nearby, the Japanese army is much stronger. If your army stops the Japanese squadron, it is very likely that they will be held back by the Japanese squadron and will not be able to retreat. They will be surrounded and annihilated by the surrounding Japanese troops.”
"Brother Bai Xian is right. But I can't bear to let you throw away so many spoils…"
Li Yun Long looked at the spoils of war that the soldiers were carrying, and his face showed a distressed and conflicted expression.
Bai Xian thought about it and said,"
"Regiment Commander Li, it's not like there's no room for discussion. The current situation was that the Japanese army had already reacted. There was a problem in Wanjia Town, but the enemy was completely unaware of our situation. Maybe we can bluff.”
"Oh? Brother Bai Xian, do you have any ideas?"
"I think so. Can we concentrate our forces and annihilate the Japanese squadron in Yu County as quickly as possible so that the surrounding Japanese troops will misjudge our forces and not dare to act rashly? Although we have a battalion of troops, the target is relatively small. As long as the Japanese army misjudges our strength and does not dare to send small troops to entangle us, we can completely take advantage of the gap in the Japanese army to quickly jump out of Wanjia Town and return to your base after eating the Japanese squadron in Yu County.”
"Good idea!"
Hearing Bai Xian's suggestion, Li Yunlong's eyes lit up. Because he calculated the cards in his hand. With Wang Chengzhu's mortar company and the 20 Type 56 automatic rifles that Bai Xian had given him, he had a chance to take down the Japanese squadron in Yu County.
"Brother Bai Xian, your idea is not bad! The sky is still dark, we can take the initiative to attack and surround this Japanese squadron in Yu County!”
After saying that, Li Yun Long called the 2nd Battalion Commander, 3rd Battalion Commander, and the instructor of the 2nd Battalion over and ordered,"
"Third Battalion Commander, you and the Sixth Company will stay in Wan Jia Town and deal with the seized materials before transporting them back to Xing Family Village! The light machine guns and grenade launchers of the sixth company were all assigned to the fourth and fifth companies. Together with the artillery company of Zhu Zi, they would follow me out of Wanjia Town to ambush the Japanese reinforcements!”
"Yes!" 3
After hearing Li Yunlong's order, the second battalion commander, the third battalion commander, and the instructor of the second battalion nodded solemnly and left to carry out Li Yunlong's order.
Therefore, the soldiers of the 4th Company, 5th Company, and Artillery Company quickly gathered and followed Bai Xian into the planned ambush location under the leadership of Li Yunlong.
The remaining Sixth Company sped up the transportation of the spoils of war. At around 5:20 pm, the soldiers of the Sixth Company escorted the spoils of war and the puppet prisoners and left Wan Jia Town in a hurry. The torches on the spot were extinguished one by one.
The third battalion commander, who was the last to leave, extinguished his last torch and hurriedly left Wan Jia Town with a horse carrying a dozen spears.
Through the map function of the system, Bai Xian deduced the route that the Japanese squadron in Yu County had to take. Then, he led Li Yunlong and the soldiers of the new regiment to Xiyan Town, north of Wanjia Town, and laid an ambush in a small ravine.
Under the command of the second battalion commander and the instructor of the second battalion, the 4th and 5th companies quickly occupied the high ground on both sides of the small ravine and built hidden and simple ambush positions. Li Yunlong followed Wang Chengzhu's artillery company and found a high ground with a wide field of vision. He quickly set up an artillery position. Li Yunlong also used 20 Type 5 - 6 automatic rifles and the machine gunners and throwers from the sixth company to temporarily form an assault platoon. They were responsible for the defense of the artillery company and also prepared for fire support and assault.
After everything was arranged, Bai Xian and Li Yunlong lay on the hillside, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Japanese army.
P.S. During the war of resistance, those who said that a Japanese brigade could defeat a national division obviously didn't understand a few things. In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army had a full brigade of about 1100 people, while many factions of the national army were small divisions. In addition to the bad habits of the old army drinking blood and eating empty pay, many divisions only had 3,000 - 5,000 people. Under such circumstances, it was not unreasonable for a Japanese brigade to chase after a Chinese division.
In this chapter, the Sakata United Army defeated two divisions of the Central Army in the Xinkou Battle. A full infantry division of the Central Army had about 8000 people (but the Central Army also drank blood and ate empty pay, so it was impossible for there to be so many people). As the elite of the Japanese army, the Sakata United Army had 3800 people, excellent weapons, and aircraft to help. Under the circumstances of 1:4 or even 1:3 (it was still a problem of drinking blood and eating empty pay), it was not unreasonable for two divisions of the Central Army to be defeated by the Sakata United Army.
