Li Xiangrong's current identity was the Military Advisor of the Independent Regiment, which was specially approved by the head of the headquarters.
Although this was just a sinecure, it was still one of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment's own people.
Therefore, reporting the situation to Li Xiangrong was not considered a violation of discipline.
Just as Li Xiangrong had said before, the Japanese retaliated.
The main forces were the 27th Brigade of the 14th Division, the 22nd Regiment of the 4th Brigade, the Cavalry Regiment, and the Heavy Artillery Brigade.
At the same time, the entire 29th Brigade had been dispatched to Taiyuan.
Two and a half exploration teams had nearly 30,000 people and tens of thousands of puppet soldiers.
The entire Jinzhong base was in a precarious situation.
However, the 8th Route Army had a lot of experience dealing with the Japanese.
The headquarters already had a good response.
However, the headquarters had underestimated the Japanese's determination.
This time, the Japanese army attacked heavily, in addition to attempting to severely damage the Jinzhong base.
There was also a very important goal, which was to destroy Li Yun Long's troops.
Therefore, the 22nd Regiment, the 4th Brigade Cavalry Regiment, and the independent Heavy Artillery Brigade of the First Army rushed straight to the hinterland of the Jinzhong base.
The target of this army seemed to be the headquarters, but their real target was Yang Village.
Yang Village was very close to the Eighth Route Army headquarters, which was hidden again.
They had chosen to move into the vicinity of Yang Village, so Li Yun Long would be the guard of the headquarters.
He had to stay and stop them.
This was exactly what Shinozuka Yoshio wanted.
In a frontal battle, the Japanese army had never been afraid of anyone.
Li Yun Long's Independent Regiment had obtained some advanced weapons from somewhere.
However, the difference in strength between the two sides could not be made up for with weapons.
Shinozuka Yoshio had also specially mobilized a heavy artillery brigade this time, with the assistance of Lu Hang.
Destroying the independent regiment was a piece of cake.
The Japanese's plot had indeed hit the Independent Regiment's soft spot.
The headquarters had already ordered the Independent Regiment and the New Regiment to block the incoming Japanese army and buy time for the headquarters to evacuate.
This was also the reason why the independent regiment had entered a state of combat readiness.
The system's mission was also related to this war.
"Repulse the attacking Japanese army."
"The Japanese intelligence has been released, please check.”
Facing the Japanese head-on, with the current firepower of the Independent Regiment.
As long as they had the geographical advantage, the Japanese would definitely not be able to break in, not to mention Ding Wei's new group.
The so-called cavalry regiment was nothing but a pile of targets in front of the light and heavy machine guns and mortars of the independent regiment.
Therefore, the most dangerous part of the Japanese army was the independent heavy artillery battalion belonging to the First Army.
"The key to this battle is this independent heavy artillery battalion.”
At the meeting, Li Xiangrong expressed his opinion for the first time.
"What is it? Independent heavy artillery unit?"
When everyone heard the word heavy artillery, their expressions changed.
The heavy artillery unit was considered a strategic artillery unit even for the Japanese.
The level of secrecy was quite high, and the security was also extremely tight. It was even harder to find traces.
The headquarters only knew that the Japanese army was equipped with an artillery unit.
The exact number of cannons, what caliber, and how many soldiers there were all very vague.
Li Xiangrong took out a document from his briefcase and placed it on the table. He said,"This is the detailed information of the Japanese heavy artillery battalion.”
Zhao Gang took the lead to pick up the document and read it.
The more he looked, the more serious his gaze became.
After a long time, he slowly put down the information and said in a heavy tone,"The Japanese really think highly of us.”
Li Yun Long had a bad feeling about this.
"Old Zhao, what exactly is this heavy artillery unit?”
" The independent 7th Heavy Artillery Brigade directly under the jurisdiction of the Japanese First Army," Zhao Gang said in a deep voice." It has a total strength of more than 700 people and is equipped with a total of 12 150mm field howitzers.”
"This kind of heavy cannon can reach a range of eight kilometers.”
"With our current strength, it is impossible to defend against the bombardment of this heavy artillery unit.”
Although their individual firepower was very strong, with semi-automatic rifles, light and heavy machine guns, rocket launchers, recoilless cannons, and even mortars, they were far superior to the Japanese.
However, they lacked long-range artillery.
In front of the cannon, all of this was nothing.
After all, the independent regiment was only an infantry regiment of about 2000 people.
In addition to this battle-level artillery unit, the Japanese army also had 3800 men from the 22nd regiment that had been replenished.
In addition to a cavalry regiment with strong mobility, they had more than 1500 people.
If the Independent Regiment and the New Regiment wanted to stop them, they would have to pay with their lives.
Whether it was the 22nd Infantry Regiment or the Cavalry Regiment, Li Yunlong had the confidence to stop them.
However, against this heavy artillery battalion, he was truly powerless.
Therefore, everyone's mood was very heavy at this moment.
However, for the safety of the headquarters, they had to fight even if they had to.
"Since Brother Li said so, does it mean that you already have a way to deal with this artillery?”
Li Yun Long's words made everyone's eyes focus on Li Xiang Rong.
He wanted to ask if anyone else was watching. There was no data at all. He was really panicking.
