The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 31 The Battle of Cangyun Ridge

Li Yunlong returned to Xinyi Regiment's camp, waited for two days in a row but did not see Kong Jie sending Wang Chengzhu and Wang Gensheng back, so he couldn't help but cursed and greeted Kong Jie several times.

Then the brigade headquarters issued an order to let Li Yunlong's new regiment actively prepare for battle and wait for instructions from superiors at any time.

The black cloud overwhelms the city and wants to destroy it.

On the eve of the outbreak of the great war, the dignified atmosphere enveloped the entire Xinyi regiment. Li Yunlong was busy mobilizing the whole regiment, boosting morale and preparing for the battle, so he had to temporarily forget about Wang Chengzhu and Wang Gensheng.

Ten days.

Sakata Shinzhe reported to his superiors one by one the rampant actions of the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi during this period, including ambushing transportation teams in multiple places, breaking through the Changpo stronghold, and destroying important transportation lines.

fourteenth.

Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the Japanese First Army stationed in Shanxi, issued a military order to order the surrounding garrisons to cooperate with the Sakata Regiment to encircle and suppress the main force of the [-]th Brigade of the [-]th Division of the Eighth Route Army entrenched in Northwest Shanxi.

Fifteenth.

Sakata Shinzhe led the main force of the alliance to approach Cangyunling.

Considering the great disparity in the strength of the enemy and ourselves, in response to this big raid by the Japanese army, as early as a week ago, the heads of the brigade had already expressed their attitude: avoid the edge and retreat!

All the evacuation work had been carried out secretly a week ago, but because the Japanese army strengthened the garrisons at various passes and set up a lot of road cards, the speed of the evacuation work was greatly delayed.

The Japanese army's blockade was too tight, and it was impossible to transfer during the day, so the transfer of the arsenal took four or five nights before it was successfully completed.

The most important thing in the base area is the arsenal and the field hospital, but the comrades in the hospital said that there are still many seriously wounded in the hospital (the wounded who appeared in small-scale battles with the Japanese army in the surrounding areas in recent days) urgently need to be treated, so it has been delayed until Finally prepared to evacuate.

In the early morning of the [-]th.

The brigade headquarters realized that it could not delay any longer, so it ordered the field hospital to be transferred immediately, and Li Yunlong led a new regiment to cover it.

As for the task of covering the transfer of the field hospital, Li Yunlong did a good job. Everything went smoothly.

Li Yunlong, who had a lot of ghost ideas, also specially sent troops to attack the Japanese strongholds from two other directions in order to attract the attention of the devils, thus covering the evacuation of the field hospital.

Who would have thought that it was because several military dogs of the Sakata Alliance showed their flaws.

In order to deal with the [-]th Brigade, this cunning old devil, Sakata, specially formed a tracking team, consisting of former hunters and soldiers who were good at tracking prey, and equipped with two or three excellent military dogs.

The reason for making this preparation is because this arrogant and arrogant general of the Japanese Empire believes that the Japanese Empire is invincible enough to tread iron hoofs on this North China Plain, starting from the Marco Polo Bridge all the way to Songhu, When they arrived in Nanjing, the soldiers headed westward to the Yellow River. The stupid Chinese army broke the bank at the Huayuankou, and they directed and acted on their own, making them laugh out loud.

The soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Empire pointed at them, and they went all the way south, almost tearing half of the Nanjing government.

Along the way, the Chinese army panicked like a bereaved dog, collapsing at the first touch, and did not dare to confront the Imperial Japanese Army head-on.

Therefore, Sakata Shinzhe thought very arrogantly that the Eighth Route Army would never dare to beat its soldiers in this raid in Northwest Shanxi.

The so-called [-]th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army was nothing more than the possession of his Sakata Regiment.

Once the enemy fled and routed, his tracking team would naturally come in handy.

The facts seem to be just as the old devil Sakata expected, the main force of the Sakata United Army pointed forward, and all the Eighth Route Army encountered along the way retreated.

Seeing that the Eighth Route Army backed down and did not dare to fight, the rampant Sakata thought confidently: his might has already frightened the Eighth Route Army!
In this way, the Sakata Alliance fought fiercely all the way, desperately chasing the [-]th Brigade that was retreating all the way.

When approaching Cangyunling area, Sakata's tracking team suddenly sent news that military dogs had tracked down an Eighth Route Army team. They used binoculars to scout from a distance and found stretchers, wounded, bandages, medicine boxes, etc. in the team. It should be a field hospital being transferred by the Eighth Route Army.

The team escorting the field hospital to be transferred may not even be considered the main force of the Eighth Route Army. Sakata didn't take it seriously, but he didn't mind eating the field hospital of the Eighth Route Army by the way.

Along the way, the opponent hastily retreated from the battle, which has already swelled Sakata Nobuzhe to a considerable extent.

Sakata immediately ordered the front to attack, seize the commanding heights of the Cangyunling position, and destroy the Eighth Route Army troops that were covering the transfer of the field hospital.

New group.

Almost at the same time when the devils discovered the new group, the reconnaissance platoon of the new group also discovered the devils.

The news immediately reached the ears of the head of the regiment, Li Yunlong.

The excellent military commander Li Yunlong immediately realized that the situation was critical. Now that the devil had discovered the field hospital and his team, he would definitely not let him leave.

Not far away is the position of Cangyun Ridge. Due to the peculiar situation of the mountain, whoever can occupy the commanding heights will be able to take the initiative.

Li Yunlong who wanted to understand this did not hesitate at all, and immediately ordered: "Send a company to continue to cover the evacuation of the field hospital. Zhang Dabiao, lead other teams and follow me to garrison the top of Cangyunling, and tell the brothers that I must die to death. Hold on, we must not let the devils come up and threaten the transfer of the field hospital, this is the task assigned to me by the brigade commander, I can't mess it up!"

"Yes!" Zhang Dabiao replied.

After Li Yunlong's order was issued, the main force of the new regiment was quickly deployed on several commanding heights in Cangyunling, and seized the time to build fortifications and stand ready to stop the Japanese army.

In this way, when the rampant Sakata Shinzhe led his Sakata Alliance to attack the Cangyunling position, he thought that he would be as powerful as before, destroying the dead.

But he didn't want to eat ashes in the subsequent attack on the Cangyunling position.

Under the excellent command of Li Yunlong, the Xinyi Regiment built exquisite anti-slope fortifications on the commanding heights of the mountains, long-distance defense and close-range confrontation.

Sakata originally wanted to forcibly take the Cangyunling position with the advantage of artillery fire at hand, but the Xinyi regiment took advantage of the condescending, easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain to repel several attacks one after another.

Watching several charges down, hundreds of corpses of imperial soldiers lay scattered on the front line.

Sakata was angry.

The Bantian Regiment, which the elites of the Central Army did not pay much attention to, suffered a disadvantage in the hands of such a small group of scattered and brave Eighth Route Army troops.

This is an absolutely unforgivable shame.

The rage did not make Sakata lose his mind. On the contrary, Sakata's face was unusually calm. With his excellent military literacy, he quickly combined with the current battle situation and issued the most precise order:

The main force, under the cover of artillery fire, launched a fierce attack from the front, and then divided into two rounds to outflank, and launched a surprise attack from the two flanks to the main position of Cangyunling, eating up the Eighth Route Army, leaving no one behind!
