"What is it? Li Jiapo?" Chen Liang was shocked. Could it be that the Yamazaki Brigade had come out?
Because of his transmigration, Old Li still took over the independent regiment, and Old Kong was later transferred away because of his merit.
However, the Yamazaki Brigade never showed up.
He did not expect that what was supposed to come would still come, and at this critical juncture. It was simply to give him reputation points!
Thinking of this, Chen Liang could not help but feel ecstatic.
"Have you figured out the enemy's serial number?" he asked the messenger.”
"Yes, it's called the Yamazaki Brigade!”The messenger nodded and replied.
"Okay, I understand. Go back and report to the brigade commander immediately. Tell him that the independent regiment will assemble and set off now!”Chen Liang waved his hand.
"Yes, sir!" The messenger saluted them and turned to leave.
After watching the messenger leave, Zhao Gang said,""Old Chen, the devils in the direction of Ping 'an have already set their eyes on us.
If we participate in the Battle of Lijiapo, what if the Japanese take the opportunity to attack the base?”
Chen Liang pondered and analyzed,"The enemies in the direction of Pingan have suffered a great loss last time.
They definitely won't dare to move out again.
They probably won't dare to attack our base easily, plus they need to regroup their forces and resources.
Therefore, the enemy shouldn't attack us in the short term.
Moreover, the Yamazaki Brigade is surrounded by Li Jiapo. The enemy will probably use their main strength to support the Japanese. They won't be able to care about us for the time being.”
"That's true, but we can't let our guard down!”Zhao Gang said.
"Yes, you're right."
"So, I plan to bring only the Guard Company, the Reconnaissance Company, and the Artillery Battalion to Li Jiapo to participate in the battle!"
The other battalions all stayed behind to guard the base, just in case.”
"Will that work?" Zhao Gang said," There's a large group of Japanese soldiers. There are thousands of them. Moreover, the enemy will send reinforcements."
Since the brigade commander sent our Independent Regiment over to reinforce, it means that the war is not progressing smoothly.
The two direct subordinate companies added up to less than 300 people.
Can you complete the mission with just this few people and an artillery battalion?”
"Old Zhao, you still don't understand how powerful our artillery is now." Chen Liang smiled.”
"Our artillery battalion originally had more than 60 75mm American howitzers.
In addition to the few victories he had won, he had seized a lot of mortars and grenade launchers. In total, there were at least a hundred of them.
Do you know how strong the firepower is with so many cannons?”
Seeing Zhao Gang stunned, Chen Liang continued,""Let me give you a simple example, the A-type Field Army of the Japanese.
Even the strongest trump card divisions would only have 30 to 40 cannons.
Furthermore, the caliber is mainly 70mm. Whether it is power or range, it is far inferior to the howitzers equipped by our artillery battalion.
Thus, our artillery firepower has already surpassed the firepower of two or three of the enemy A Regiment.”
"With such a powerful artillery force, wouldn't it be easy for them to deal with a mere Yamazaki Battalion?”
"As long as the brigade commander allows us to be the main attacker, the artillery battalion will be able to wipe out the Yamazaki Brigade. The reconnaissance company and the guard company will just have to wait to collect the corpses.”
After hearing Chen Liang's analysis, Zhao Gang suddenly smiled and said,""I'm relieved to hear that.”
"Then it's settled. I'll bring the guard company, reconnaissance company, and artillery battalion to Li Jiapo.”
"Old Zhao, you will lead the 1st Battalion, 2nd Battalion, 3rd Battalion, Air Defense Battalion, and Logistics Battalion to guard the base."
There was also the newly formed tank and armor company.
This way, even if the devils attack our base when I'm not around, you can still hold on!”
"Yes." "Then Old Chen, you must be careful on the road." Zhao Gang nodded in agreement.”
"Don't worry." Chen Liang waved his hand and immediately turned around to instruct,"Monk, pass on my order. The guard company, reconnaissance company, and artillery battalion will gather immediately. Follow me to Li Jiapo and surround and annihilate the Yamazaki unit!”
"Yes, sir!" Monk Wei responded and quickly left.
……
Outside of Li Jiapo, the 386th Brigade's temporary enemy headquarters.
The chief of staff walked up to the brigade commander with a solemn expression and said,""Just now, the frontline reported that the 772nd Regiment's attack failed again.
The enemy had built a circular fortification on the hillside, and they had also received air support.
I attacked the troops and suffered heavy casualties. I had no choice but to stop the attack!”
"How many attacks has this been?" The brigade commander, who was observing the enemy with his binoculars, put down his binoculars and turned around to ask.
"This is the seventh time." "Just now, the headquarters and division headquarters called to urge us to annihilate the Yamazaki Battalion as soon as possible."
Because the enemy has already begun to send reinforcements. If we delay any longer, the situation will be disadvantageous to us!”
The brigade commander turned around and looked at the battle map hanging on the wall.
He turned his head and said," The 772nd Regiment lacks heavy equipment, and they don't have enough experience in attacking highlands. It would be great if the Independent Regiment could be here.”
"Has the Independent Regiment arrived yet?" Chen Liang and the others had taken down Ping An County City before, so they should be much stronger than the 772nd Regiment in terms of attacking.
Moreover, the equipment they had was not bad. If they were allowed to go up, their chances of success should be higher.”
The chief of staff replied," The liaison officer we sent out has already returned. He said that Chen Liang has already agreed to lead his troops to come over as reinforcements. He should be on his way now!"”
The brigade commander pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and ordered decisively,""Immediately order the 772nd Regiment to organize the eighth attack. We will not give the Yamazaki Battalion a chance to breathe!”
"Yes, sir!" The chief of staff responded and quickly made a call to pass on the order.
