I really came here to fight against Japan

Chapter 200: Mines Bombing Tanks

But if they were to have some free time, there would probably be a lot of violations of the group discipline.

"Okay, then leave it to the leader. Once the troops are trained, don't forget to send the people back to me." Li Yunlong said with a grin.

Finally, I can fleece Li Yunlong with a legitimate reason.

Brigade chief, how could it be so easy for you to let Li Yunlong go?

“In this anti-mopping-up battle, all the spoils must be handed over to the brigade for unified distribution.

Li Yunlong, you are so brave, you still dare to glare at me, right?

Do you think I'm the only one who owns all these weapons and equipment?

I won't send half of it to the headquarters, just like our boss's temper.

Can they turn a blind eye and let you go so easily?"

After a mix of real and fake threats from the brigade chief, Wu Changfeng's eyes gave him certainty.

Li Yunlong endured the pain and said, "Okay, I promise to obey your orders."

The brigade commander said angrily, "Li Yunlong and Wu Changfeng, stop flirting with me. Do you think I'm blind?"

Song Wenwan came over quickly to help them smooth things over.

"Old Wu, stop squatting. What does that look like? Hurry up and get up and talk to the commander."

Wu Changfeng: "Commander Song, my feet are numb from squatting, otherwise I would have stood up long ago."

This sentence made everyone laugh, and the brigade chief came over personally to help Wu Changfeng.

Li Yunlong's eyes turned red when he saw this. As the brigade commander's favorite general, he had never been treated like this before.

Li Yunlong once again requested the leader to return the trained Imperial Army to him.

The brigade chief laughed it off and said everything, yet it seemed as if he said nothing.

The head of the brigade was just thinking silently in his heart: You still want to take the people back, what are you dreaming of?

Li Yunlong was finally dealt with here, and the soldiers had rested well. Li Yunlong ordered to continue the pursuit.

At this time, they could already see the Gansu troops on both sides surrounding them.

This shows that the pocket formation they prepared for the 39th Division has been completely closed.

Now it depends on whether the three bends ahead can block the Japanese's retreat route.

Song Wenwan asked Luo Tong, the leader of the first team: "Where is Wu Changlong? Didn't he come with the second team?"

Luo Tong said: "Commander, Lao Wu is worried, so he personally led the Third Division to the three bends ahead to block the enemy."

The head of the brigade was so annoyed when he heard this. Everyone, listen, are they still speaking human language?

He is just a brigade-level detachment commander, but he leads two divisions out every day.

The speed at which the Gansu Army is expanding its forces is no slower than ours!

Li Yunlong felt even more jealous. He wondered when he would be able to lead a division and go out to fight the Japanese.

Seeing that Luo Tong and Wu Changfeng seemed very familiar with each other, Song Wenwan explained for them.

It turns out that Wu Changfeng is the younger brother of the second detachment captain Wu Changlong.

Only then did the head of the brigade understand why Wu Changfeng could get whatever he wanted.

So if someone is missing something, he can just ask his brother for it!

After everyone exchanged greetings, Luo Tong reported his and Wu Changlong’s military deployment.

“Commander Song, Eighth Route Army commander, our two detachments, four divisions in total, have prepared their artillery fire.

We gathered twenty Type 75 field guns, thirty Type 41 mountain guns, and forty Type 92 infantry guns.

As soon as the first three bends are fired, I will start shelling the Japanese infantry."

Now Inoue Yu is looking at his tank troops through a telescope.

They had already passed the river with two bends, and the wider ice surface in front was the river with three bends.

The Akita Corps following behind, with their short legs, were desperately rushing up to the first bend of the river.

As long as the tanks and armored vehicles of his Inoue Division can rush to the opposite embankment.

So no one can think of stopping their division in such a flat terrain.

Amid the officers' shouts of "Ha Ya Ku", the Japanese troops advanced in a relatively orderly manner.

The artillery, pulled by cars and draft horses, had already reached the first bend in the ice.

"Swoosh, it seems the artillery and heavy guns are safe too." Inoue put down the telescope with satisfaction.

Behind them was the direction of the Tanaka Regiment's blocking position, and the gunfire there had stopped.

Now Inoue Yu no longer has any illusions about the Tanaka Unit.

According to past experience, his Tanaka Regiment should have been completely destroyed.

The past two days have been too much of a shock to him. A Type A division has lost nearly 8,000 people.

Fortunately, his tank regiment was still there, and technical soldiers such as drivers were also brought back.

Although the 39th Division had shrunk significantly, the main force of 20,000 combat personnel was still there.

All the squadron flags... not a single one was lost.

Now he could finally understand Yoshio Shinozuka's kindness towards him.

It would have been better if I hadn’t brought the regiment flag with me when I left Taiyuan this time, in case I really lost one.

I'm afraid my military career in the army is coming to an end!

Inoue, who was eager to escape, had already felt the threat from the Eighth Route Army.

But the more this is the case, the more cautious he should be.

Unfortunately, he had only learned 70% of the skills out of 10, and because he was promoted too smoothly, he lacked the opportunity to hone himself.

He knew nothing about his enemy and had long lost his sense of the situation.

He is about to escape, but now he is playing in a completely careless way.

He sent infantry regiments on both wings to block the pressure from the Eighth Route Army and focused on charging forward.

This is just to bully the Eighth Route Army, who have no long-range weapons that can threaten his retreating troops.

What Inoue didn't know was that the Gansu Army and the Eighth Route Army were actually waiting for an opportunity.

This opportunity is, Explode! River!

Inoue Yu saw his armored brigade finally rushing onto the river surface at the third bend.

Because of the strong winds in Shanxi, the ice surface is covered with dirt and appears uneven.

However, the frozen solid ice surface made the Type 95 tank, which was not heavy to begin with, move on it as if it were flat ground.

Inoue Yu proudly gave the order, "Send a telegram to Shinozuka Yoshio and tell him that our 39th Division suffered a slight loss.

But we have safely passed the three bends. Let the Fourth Division help us prepare dinner. We will rest in Lan County for one night and then return to Taiyuan to report. "

The Japanese army had just sent a telegram when a rare and unusual phenomenon appeared in Inoue's telescope.

A Type 95 tank that was about to land suddenly flew into the sky without any warning.

The knowledgeable commander of the division, Inoue Ueyoshi, recognized it immediately.

What sent the Imperial tank into the sky was actually... a mine?

Inoue Yu muttered to himself: "Damn it, who would be so bored as to place a mine on the frozen river?"

At this time, who has the time to answer his question?

The only answer he had was the sound of the explosion that had just reached his ears.

This Wu Changlong, who didn't know where he got the mine from, actually performed a miraculous deed.

It blew up a Japanese tank, and when it fell, it destroyed another tank.

The power of this mine was so great that it directly blew up the nearby ice.

I saw the cracks on the nearby ice surface forming a spider web shape, extending into the distance.
