Li Jiapo.
A signal flare rose into the air.
After Brigadier General Chen saw the signal flare in the air outside Li Jiapo, his relaxed fists clenched once again.
This was the signal from Li Yun Long's troops, which meant that they had already engaged the 12th regiment, signaling that the surrounding troops could start moving.
Brigadier General Chen put down his binoculars and said," The devils have taken the bait. Immediately inform Regiment 771, Regiment 30, Regiment 31, Regiment 32…All troops, launch the attack according to the original plan!”
"Yes, sir!"
Soon, three signal flares rose into the air again.
This was the signal flare that signified the start of the battle plan.
Outside One-Line-Sky.
Baldy Feng, the leader of the 77th Regiment, saw the three signal flares in the air and immediately got up from his hiding spot.
"Trummoner, blow the charge horn and take down the two sides of One-Line-Sky.”
"Yes, sir!"
On both sides of the One-Line-Sky, the Japanese had left a squadron of Japanese soldiers stationed on both sides. This was to prevent them from being attacked by the Eighth Route Army when they passed through the One-Line-Sky.
The Line of Sky was more than 200 meters long and only a dozen meters wide. If the 8th Route Army attacked the troops below from the cliffs on both sides, no matter how good the Japanese were, they would not be able to stop them. Although Takahashi Matayoshi was proud, he was not stupid.
However, after passing through the frontline, only a small number of troops were left to guard. If it wasn't for the fact that the Eighth Route Army would see that he was deliberately entering the trap, he wouldn't even want to leave his troops behind.
There was only about a squadron of Japanese soldiers scattered on both sides of the sky.
At this time, the Japanese had just occupied the frontline not long ago and had not yet built a complete defense.
There were about a hundred people on each side.
At the same time, there was also a battalion of puppet soldiers in charge of standing guard.
Although the puppet army had a large number of people, their combat strength was very low. During the war, more puppet soldiers chose to shoot at the sky and then lie on the ground and play dead.
The devils were busy building their positions while the puppet soldiers stood guard at the front line.
Right at this moment, the sound of the 8th Route Army's charging horn suddenly came from both sides of the Frontline.
Immediately after, sharp sounds of air being torn apart could be heard.
Mortars rained down on the Skyline Ghost.
They did not conserve their ammunition. In order to prevent the Japanese from discovering that something was wrong and immediately breaking out of the encirclement, the 771st Regiment took out all their trump cards and fired all the mortars at almost the same time!
After the bombardment ended, shouts of battle could be heard from both sides of One-Line-Sky.
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
The soldiers of the 77th Regiment, who had been hiding nearby, suddenly launched an attack, catching the Japanese off guard.
Before they could react, they were killed one after another, leaving a trail of corpses on the ground.
As for the puppet army, apart from firing their guns into the air, the soldiers of the 77th Regiment immediately put down their weapons and surrendered when they rushed in front of them.
The battle ended in less than ten minutes.
All the devils were killed, and most of the puppet troops surrendered.
A squadron of Japanese soldiers could not pose much of a threat to the 771st Regiment. Moreover, the 771st Regiment did not care about casualties and did not save any ammunition.
"Quick, 1st Battalion, go to the exit of the One-Line-Sky immediately and set up a position to prevent the Japanese from jumping over the wall!”
"The Second Battalion is stationed on the left side of the One-Line-Sky. As long as the devils dare to enter the One-Line-Sky, destroy them!”
"Yes, sir!"
"The 3rd Battalion will be stationed on the right side of One-Line-Sky. You will coordinate with the 2nd Battalion. If the devils want to attack the 1st Battalion, you will kill them!”
"Yes, sir!"
After the 77th Regiment successfully took down the frontline, it meant that the 8th Route Army had completely surrounded the Japanese and blocked all their escape routes.
The 4,500 soldiers of the 12th regiment were all surrounded by Li Jiapo.
At the same time, in Li Jiapo.
The 30th Regiment and 31st Regiment also came from the rear.
They immediately attacked the Japanese on the left side of the Independent Regiment, relieving the pressure on the left side of the Independent Regiment.
With the addition of the three main forces, the situation of the battle suddenly changed.
The Japanese were trapped in the Li Family Hill area, and both entrances were blocked.
"Report, a large number of soldiers from the Eighth Route Army have appeared in Frontline Sky and attacked our defense troops. Frontline Sky has fallen!”
"Report, the 1st Infantry Brigade has engaged the 30th Regiment of the 8th Route Army!”
"Report, a large number of 8th Route Army soldiers have appeared on our right flank and are encircling our right flank!”
Takahashi Matayoshi soon received the information.
However, there was no worry on his face.
"Send a message to General Shinozuka Kazuo. Our 12th regiment has successfully entered Lijiapo and attracted several main forces of the 8th Route Army. Our 12th regiment has decided to defeat the main forces of the 8th Route Army to attract more of them!”
Not only did Takahashi Matayoshi not panic, but he was even planning how to defeat all the surrounding 8th Route Army troops.
At present, the main force of the Eighth Route Army was only four regiments, not even a division.
Obviously, Takahashi Matayoshi was not satisfied with this number of people.
"Order the 2nd Infantry Company to move to the right wing and defeat the enemy. Order the 1st Infantry Company to end the battle as soon as possible!”
"Ha Yi!"
After Takahashi Matayoshi gave the order, he took a stool from his subordinate and sat directly at the entrance of the Munitions Factory. He held a telescope and looked at the surrounding battle situation.
The staff officers around them stood at the side, waiting for Takahashi Matayoshi's latest order.
Li Yunlong held a telescope and saw a Japanese lieutenant sitting in front of the arsenal. He held a samurai sword in one hand and a telescope in the other.
He was a little far away, so he couldn't see the specific military rank of this Japanese.
However, it looked like a big fish.
"Old Zhao, you have good eyesight. Let me see who that Japanese is.”
Li Yunlong pointed at Takahashi Matayo's position.
At this moment, Takahashi Matayoshi also noticed Li Yunlong pointing at him.
A mocking smile appeared on his face. After putting down the binoculars, he waved at Li Yunlong as if he was greeting him.
"It's a Japanese colonel. He should be the captain of the Japanese's 12th regiment, Takahashi Matayoshi.”
Hearing this, Li Yunlong immediately laughed.
"Damn it, I was still worried about finding the position of the 12th regiment's command center, but he actually sat at the entrance of the Munitions Factory like this. This Japanese is really not afraid of death! Men, inform the heavy artillery company to aim and shoot!”
