The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 19 Classic Night Raid Teaching
... After the order was issued, the main force of the independent regiment took advantage of the dark night to keep the team still and moved towards the devil's stronghold.

Soon they approached the barbed wire fence and the water-filled trench blockade, which was the outermost defense of the devil's stronghold.

Kong Jie brought two commando members to the barbed wire fence early in the morning, and met Wang Leihu, Shen Quan and his party from the position where the commando entered.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

Calling in a low voice one after another, and finally saw the living commander of their own regiment, the hearts of the three battalion commanders were relieved.

Kong Jie scolded with a smile: "Okay, why are you acting sentimental like a bitch? The gun tower has been taken down, and the defense around the devil's stronghold is completely blind. I just broke the barbed wire fence with my team members. There is a big opening, and a wooden plank is set up, so that the main force can quickly pass through the barbed wire and the trench to block it, and use the gun tower as a cover to get in."

"Yes!"

Under the dark night.

As Kong Jie said, what the devils rely on the most is the security and firepower of the outer blockhouses.

Once the gun tower of the Changpo stronghold is successfully removed, the security and peripheral defenses of the entire Changpo stronghold will be completely paralyzed.

It's like a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out and its claws have been smoothed, leaving only an empty frame.

There were not many Japanese and puppet troops stationed at the Changpo stronghold. According to the daily investigations of the investigation platoon, there was only one Japanese reinforcement team in the stronghold, with a number of five or sixty people, plus a company of the Imperial Association Army here. Garrison, the total strength of all the troops is less than 60.

It's just relying on the solid defense of the two gun towers on weekdays.

It is no exaggeration to say that if they forcibly attacked the Changpo stronghold in the daytime, relying on the absolute defense of the two gun towers and the abundant ammunition on hand, the devils could even block the attack of a main regiment of the Eighth Route Army with scarce ammunition.

The Japanese and puppet troops in the Changpo stronghold were able to guard the main road, and it was not easy for the Eighth Route Army to launch an offensive rashly for a while.

This time the [-]th Brigade suddenly felt determined to pull out the Changpo stronghold, and there was naturally a reason for it.

The devil's Changpo stronghold guards the traffic arteries in the local area. Whether it is the people passing by or the caravan passing by, they will be exploited and squeezed by the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold.

Coupled with the vicious layout of the devils, the location of the Changpo stronghold was like a nail that was firmly inserted into the hub of the [-]th Brigade's base, greatly reducing the scope of activities of the Eighth Route Army.

This is a malignant tumor. In the words of the brigade commander, it must be removed, otherwise the devil will use this malignant tumor to make the [-]th brigade very ill.

In order to successfully eradicate the devil's Changpo stronghold, the brigade commander also made various arrangements.

First of all, the independent regiment led by Kong Jie took on the main task of attacking the Changpo stronghold.

Secondly, Li Yunlong led the Xinyi Regiment to block the reinforcements from the Japanese army to support the Changpo stronghold.

In addition, in order to attract the attention of the devils and indirectly cover the independent regiment's attack on the Changpo stronghold, the brigade commander also dispatched the main force of the [-]nd Regiment to continuously attack another large stronghold near the Changpo stronghold in the past few days.

It can be said that all the preparations are ready, and the final Dongfeng will depend on how Kong Jie conducts the command to capture the Changpo stronghold.

………………

The enemy is in the clear and I am in the dark. This is the best advantage.

Now that the devil's turret has been removed, avoiding the risk of the team being exposed in advance, Kong Jie is naturally happy to maximize this advantage.

Under the cover of darkness, the main force of the independent regiment continued to infiltrate the devil's stronghold quietly.

After the main force of the Independent Regiment successfully entered, Kong Jie ordered soldiers from two squads into each of the two gun towers to replace the commando members in the gun towers.

The commando members who had freed up their hands as the main force touched the tip of the knife, and secretly killed the devil's sentinel during the infiltration into the devil's stronghold.

There is nothing unusual about the inner circle of the devil's Changpo stronghold, except for the amazing defensive power of the two fortresses on the outer periphery, the interior is just some ordinary brick and stone houses, and some are even earth and stone structures.

It is the place where the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold usually live and rest.

If the devils in the county go out to fight in the city, they can temporarily live in such large and small strongholds on the way.

You don't need to expect such a good living environment. The Japanese and puppet soldiers ate, drank and littered here. Domestic garbage was thrown all over the place, and there was even a stench coming from some places.

Night, 25:[-].

Under Kong Jie's order, Wang Leihu and other three battalion commanders each led their teams, and under the premise that members of the commando secretly killed the devil sentinels and prevented the troops from being exposed, they completed the secret deployment of troops to the Japanese stronghold.

Deployment is actually very simple:

The troops were divided to complete the encirclement of the residences of the Japanese and puppet troops.

Immediately afterwards, a sneak attack in the dark was launched at the same time to avoid the time difference in the successive battles, and some Japanese and puppet troops were alerted.

Night, exactly two thirty.

While the messenger waited respectfully, Kong Jie, the highest military officer of the Independence Regiment, swung down his raised right hand vigorously.

Mixed with the momentum of the gold and iron horse, a word came out of his mouth:
"kill!"

The soldiers of the independent regiment who surrounded all the houses where the Japanese and puppet troops were located in the stronghold launched an attack at the same time.

The joyful one-sided massacre began, and the fierce gunfire completely broke the dead silence in the dark night of the Changpo stronghold.

Most of the devils and puppet soldiers woke up when the soldiers of the independent regiment suddenly broke into the bunk. Unfortunately, it was too late, and the guns were two or three meters away from their beds.

Before regaining consciousness, the Japanese and puppet soldiers rushed to the end of the bed, grabbed their guns, and the soldiers of the independent regiment who rushed into the whole shop picked up their guns and burst into fire.

Wang Leihu, the commander of the first battalion holding a Czech-style light machine gun, killed the most happily.

Worthy of being the number one general of the Independence Regiment, even with a Czech-style machine gun with a large recoil, Wang Leihu held the machine gun and put the tail of the gun on his waist, which could still ensure the Czech-style light machine gun to shoot smoothly and accurately.

Before the devils and puppet soldiers had time to get up from the bunk, the bed was covered in blood under the violent burst of machine gun fire.

This night was destined to be a nightmare for the Japanese and puppet troops in the Changpo stronghold.

The enemy seems to come in out of nowhere.

Launch the most violent attack when they are defenseless.

The end waiting for them is death or death.

Kong Jie captured a puppet soldier alive, and after threatening to ask for the location of the Communication Department of the Changpo stronghold, he led the team straight to the Devil's Communication Department.

Kong Jie came for the radio station of the Devil's Communications Department.

Any radio station is an extremely precious asset in the current Anti-Japanese War era with underdeveloped communication capabilities.

If Kong Jie is lucky enough to get a radio station in the Changpo stronghold, it will definitely be of great benefit to the future communication development of the Independent Regiment.

Soldiers were also in charge of the bungalow of the communications department in the stronghold. When Kong Jie arrived with his men, the communications department had already been captured by the soldiers.

"Captain!"

The platoon leader leading the team saluted Kong Jie.

Kong Jie nodded, and asked expectantly, "How about it, have you got the radio station yet?"
