I really came here to fight against Japan

Chapter 305: The first time to eliminate the brigade-level Japanese army, congratulations

These militiamen also knew how to take advantage of the terrain and wiped out an entire battalion and a squadron of Japanese invaders.

The Japanese not only did not dare to fight back, but also retreated to build fortifications.

He wouldn't even wait for the leaders at headquarters to call and urge him to counterattack.

Li Yunlong had already led all the troops of Cangyunling, using artillery shells to clear the way and force their way into the position of the Sakata Regiment.

There was no way they would let the old devil Sakata Nobutsu live for another hour.

In the boss's mind, you, a commander of a regular army, cannot see things as clearly as a militia leader.

As for the four words "assess the situation", what you, the leader of the main force regiment, did was not as good as a militia commander.

Captains Cheng and Ye: Boss, he is not an ordinary militia leader.

He is the militia leader who has five to six thousand militia troops under his command.

An artillery battalion of the Lianzhuang team had more heavy firepower than the entire brigade (1937).

However, the two veteran captains of the regiments were aware of this point and immediately expressed their conviction.

Then it was Li Yunlong's new regiment's turn, and the division commander was already looking at him with a smile.

Hearing the division commander calling his regiment, Li Yunlong suddenly felt guilty for some unknown reason and quickly lowered his head.

The division commander laughed and said, "What's wrong, Li Yunlong? You are still shy after winning the battle. This is not your style.

Today, let's talk about your new subordinates, the militia comrades from the Lianzhuang team who came from Fengucheng County. Let's welcome them with applause."

After the applause ended, the division commander continued, "The militia comrades of Lianzhuang Team performed brilliantly in this Cangyunling battle.

They divided their troops into two groups, sending out a force to attack the Sakata Regiment and a force to protect the headquarters, paying very close attention to details.

Their battle in the connecting section made me feel their unique vision.

There was also the battle to encircle and annihilate Sakata Nobutsu, which showed their precise grasp of opportunities.

Li Yunlong, you are really a talented guy, and you have a group of talented people under you.

Your artillery battalion commander, Wang Chengzhu, bombarded Sakata's headquarters and killed Japanese Colonel Sakata Nobutsu.

Your Deputy Captain Xing disguised himself as a Japanese squadron leader and lured the 4th Mixed Brigade into the sealed circle.

Even your Lianzhuang team’s militia brigade has a female combat hero, Chen Taohua. You are incredible.”

The deputy commander said, "You should praise him less. Do you think this kid has started to learn bad habits?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Has Li Yunlong become a bad person? No, he is still the same as before.

The commander asked: "Boss, please stop scaring him, or you can just tell him where he is wrong.

Look how scared Li Yunlong is. If he keeps shaking, the chairs in my division headquarters will fall apart."

"Hahahaha, Li Yunlong, let me ask you, how much explosives did you use this time? How many shells?"

Li Yunlong didn't understand why the deputy commander-in-chief asked him this, but he told the truth.

"Deputy Commander, all of our regiment's explosives and mortar shells have been used up.

The Type 92 infantry gun... we still have half the shells left, and we didn't use the Type 41 mountain gun and the Type 75 field gun shells this time."

After hearing this, everyone hissed.

Captain Cheng: "Good job, Old Li, everyone said you got rich in the past two years, but I didn't expect you to become like this.

What I am using now are Type 82 mortars, and I have less than ten of them.

But you, Lao Li, are now equipped with 75mm field artillery, your New 1st Regiment is incredible."

Li Yunlong was really anxious at this moment. He was showing off his wealth, showing off his wealth. How could I have forgotten about this?

"Commanders, I'm worried that our troops will suffer too many casualties, so I used a little more ammunition."

The division commander first asked the "timid" Li Yunlong to sit down, and then he and the deputy commander-in-chief continued to guide the meeting process in the anti-mopping-up meeting room.

They focused on military issues and conducted analysis and summary.

Division Commander: “In short, we have achieved a great victory in this anti-mopping-up battle.

After forty-eight hours of hard fighting, we completely wiped out the invading enemy.

These included three Japanese infantry regiments and one artillery battalion.

Plus a tank and armored vehicle squadron, the entire 4th Mixed Brigade.

A total of Japanese brigade commander Major General Suzuki and four colonel regiment commanders were killed.

The total number of Japanese troops wiped out this time was more than 14,000.

This is the first time that our troops have independently annihilated the Japanese at the brigade level since they crossed the Yellow River. This is cause for celebration.

The bodies of Suzuki and his four regiment commanders, as well as their uniforms, command swords, and seals.

Everything has been packed and will be shipped to the mountain city via the Second War Zone soon.

I say, Li Yunlong, this time your New 1st Regiment, as the main force of the battle, is going to become famous throughout the country.

I guess the people in Shancheng might even give you the rank of major general."

Li Yunlong: "No, they want to get rid of me just because I am a major general.

I might as well give this great credit to the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

At least it can be used to exchange some ammunition, food and so on for our Eighth Route Army."

They also knew that Li Yunlong secretly took the spoils of war and exchanged them for supplies with the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

However, after today's battle, the Eighth Route Army is likely to reveal some of its true strength.

In northern Shaanxi, important intelligence has been obtained (all provided by Song Wenwan).

One reason is that the Anti-Japanese United Army suffered too much loss, and the situation in the entire north was not good.

In central China, the Japanese and the traitor representatives have already colluded with each other.

Within half a year, a new traitor government will be established.

Used to help the Japanese army to complete the conspiracy of using China to control China.

Within one or two years, the Japanese army will also increase military pressure on the temporary capital.

Under such high pressure, there will be many unsteady elements who will throw themselves into the arms of the pseudo-government.

The Japanese army was unable to defeat the Chinese military and civilians in a short period of time.

yield.

The Japanese headquarters has already begun preparations to use a puppet government to hold back the temporary capital.

So that they can draw powerful troops to attack Southeast Asia and Australia.

They believed that as long as Japan conquered the world, the temporary capital would naturally surrender.

It’s a pity that man proposes, God disposes. In Song Wenwan’s world, this strategic goal of the Japanese army has never been achieved.

The Shaanxi-Northern side believed that if the intelligence obtained was true.

Then the temporary capital would most likely surrender. Once it did, China's War of Resistance against Japan would encounter a low point.

At this time, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army led by the Communist Party were needed to take up the banner of anti-Japanese resistance.

At this time, the achievement of completely annihilating the 4th Mixed Brigade became an opportunity for the Eighth Route Army to lead the anti-Japanese war.

Therefore, this battle not only does not need to be concealed, but it must be widely publicized.

Rumors have already begun to spread in the current secondary capital.

It is said that the troops of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army can only "migrate but not fight."

The Communist army does not have any victories in its wars against the Japanese that it can show off.

This kind of shameless statement still has a large market in major cities such as the secondary capital.

It was as if the Pingxingguan victory had never happened.

Many ordinary people were deceived by the news about the temporary capital because of the reactionary propaganda published in newspapers.

The military summary meeting ended before lunch. In the afternoon, Political Commissar Ding from the division headquarters presided over the meeting.
