The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 505

The scene returns to the various aid troops.

The new second group.

With the reinforcements of the local troops and militia troops originally used to besiege Ping'an County, the strength of the New Second Regiment increased rapidly, flanking back and forth, and turning left and right.

After nearly an hour, a battalion led by Li Yunlong, together with the local troops and militia troops who cooperated in the battle, finally ate up most of the reinforcements from the Japanese army, and the remaining less than one-third of the devils hid nearby Entered a stronghold.

The soldiers pursued all the way, and the Japanese and puppet troops fled in a panic. The many kinds of weapons they carried were too late to take away or even destroyed, so they were accepted by Li Yunlong with a smile.

In addition, several Japanese and puppet troops who were ambushed by the troops of the New Second Regiment were also defeated.

If they hadn't escaped quickly, with the help of some strongholds along the way to block the troops pursued by the New Second Regiment, these Japanese and puppet troops would have been wiped out by the soldiers.

Li Yunlong, who was so red-eyed, saw the Japanese troops fleeing into the stronghold one by one. Annoyed, he directly mobilized several infantry artillery and forcibly took down a Japanese stronghold.

Even the original Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold, as well as the reinforcements of the Japanese and puppet troops who fled in, were all wiped out.

After the defeated devils retreated to some large strongholds and near the county town, Li Yunlong ordered to stop the pursuit, but he didn't stop there. Instead, taking advantage of the momentum of victory in front of him, he quickly issued an order to launch a sabotage operation.

Comrades from the local troops and the militia, they are good at raiding.

Sections of the devil's railway track soon disappeared, and the wires pulled between the county towns were cut to pieces.

The war is back to the war, Li Yunlong is still thinking about the cooperation with Kong Jie!
Get more raw materials such as rails and wires to go back, so that we can start cooperation in military production in the future.

With enough equipment and ammunition in the regiment, there is no need to fight useless battles anymore.

……

New group.

Ding Wei, who had a huge appetite, originally wanted to eat up the three reinforcements of the Japanese puppet army, that is, the three Japanese brigades and one puppet army.

For this reason, Ding Wei moved out all his family assets, and all the light and heavy machine guns of the whole regiment were used. Even the soldiers of the cooking squad participated in the ambush.

The result made Ding Wei a little disappointed, and did not wipe out the three Japanese and puppet troops.

In the end, it just ate all the way, severely damaged the road, and repelled the whole road.

After all, even if they are the second-rate troops of the devils, the military literacy of these little devils is definitely not low.

After encountering an ambush, although the devil's troops were in a panic, they were able to gain a firm foothold and launch an orderly counterattack soon.

The devil commander who was ambushed was very shrewd. He quickly used the surrounding terrain to pull the troops apart, and has been forcing the troops of the new regiment to start a positional battle with him.

That is to say, the equipment of the new regiment was strong and the firepower was fierce, which prevented the little devil from turning over.

The devils fought and retreated along the way, but a large part of them withdrew.

There is also a little devil who is even more cunning.

Ding Wei estimated that it was a crooked idea from a certain commander of the Japanese army, who actually made the soldiers of the Japanese army and the puppet army exchange military uniforms.

What do you mean?
Usually when marching, the Japanese army and the puppet army marched at the same time, the puppet army walked in front to open the way, and the Japanese army hung not far behind.

The devil commander along the way was very cunning. He asked the Japanese army and the puppet army to exchange uniforms, and then let the Japanese army wearing the puppet army uniform walk in front, and let the puppet army wearing Japanese army uniform walk behind.

As for the weapons they carried, they were hidden by some means.

The devil commander could also guess that on the way to support Ping'an County, he might encounter reinforcements from the Eighth Route Army.

So he made preparations early in the morning for the soldiers of the Japanese army and the puppet army to exchange uniforms.

As for the reason for doing so, it is very simple. The Japanese commander has long realized:

When the Imperial Army and the Imperial Army troops were ambushed midway, the Eighth Route Army would place the main strike point on the Imperial Army.

Sometimes they even let the Imperial Army troops who opened the way in front of them directly, and then grabbed the imperial troops who followed into the ambush circle and beat them fiercely.

The reason is that the Eighth Route Army is also very clear. Compared with the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army, the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Association Army is much worse.

Often after the defeat of the Japanese army, the fighting will of the remaining Imperial Army troops will soon collapse.

So the cunning devil commander had an idea and asked the Japanese army and the puppet army to exchange their uniforms before setting off.

At that time, it was Sun Zhenguo, the commander of the first battalion of the Xinyi Regiment, who was in charge of ambushing this road.

The Japanese and puppet troops were divided into two parts, the front and the back, and slowly walked towards the ambush circle.

As usual, there is a puppet army in the front, about the strength of a regiment, and a Japanese brigade in the rear. Sun Zhenguo has observed both troops through binoculars.

He was a little bit puzzled, the pace of the devil troops today seemed not as uniform as in the past, and the cart that was pulled back and forth was covered with coarse cloth, so it was not clear what was inside.

The puppet troops in front were still walking loosely.

Although Sun Zhenguo felt that something was wrong, he didn't think too much about it. As usual, he let the puppet army pass the ambush circle first, and waited until the follow-up Japanese army stepped into the ambush circle before suddenly launching the attack.

After the battle broke out, the firepower of the ambush focused on the "Japanese troops" who stepped into the ambush circle.

As a result, as soon as the battle started, Sun Zhenguo discovered the strangeness. Today, this group of little devils are extremely vulnerable. The firepower tilted down, and the whole team suddenly fell into a panic. They couldn't even build up the most basic counterattack firepower in time.

The counterattack firepower of this group of "devils" seems to be much sparser than that of the Japanese army in the past.

Sun Zhenguo was wondering, but the devil's captain was overjoyed.

Tubalu was really fooled.

The devil captain quickly led the troops that had broken through the ambush circle, and used the surrounding soil slopes as cover to uncover the coarse cloth that was pulling the carriage. It is the firepower configuration that the Japanese army disguised as a puppet army should have.

The Japanese army, showing its true colors, quickly launched an attack on the new group of troops ambushing on both sides of the hillside.

Sun Zhenguo, who was suddenly attacked, was taken aback, and he immediately realized something was wrong.

Today, the roles of the devil and the puppet army seem to have been reversed, and the devil is particularly vulnerable.

The response speed of these imperial association troops was surprisingly fast, and the firepower counterattack was even more ferocious. The firepower configuration of those light and heavy machine guns and grenades was by no means what the puppet army should have.

Sun Zhenguo, who quickly regained his senses, immediately ordered: "Quickly retreat, and turn around to the rear of the puppet army. Most of these puppet troops are disguised by devils."

Sun Zhenguo's reaction could not be described as unpleasant. The soldiers moved upon hearing the sound and quickly adjusted their tactics. With the help of sophisticated equipment and powerful firepower, they finally prevented the little devil from succeeding.

Just because they missed the advantage of the ambush, the battle along the way lasted nearly two hours.

In the end, the captain of the Japanese army commanded the Japanese and puppet troops to retreat calmly, and both sides suffered casualties, but Sun Zhenguo had no choice but to do anything.

So far, as a result of the three-party ambush operation of the Xinyi Regiment, all the reinforcements from the Japanese and puppet troops were wiped out, the whole road was severely damaged, and the whole road was repelled.

Sun Zhenguo, who fell into the trap of the devil, felt very depressed.

Ding Wei comforted Sun Zhenguo a few words, realized the cunning of the Japanese army's tactics, and immediately passed the news that the Japanese army and the puppet army might exchange military uniforms to fight to the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment.

On the side of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment, the little devil really did the same.

It's just that after Kong Jie and Li Yunlong were vaccinated by Ding Wei, they were not so easy to be fooled.

The cadres can easily detect the flaws of the Japanese and puppet troops, or simply annihilate both sides together.

The little devil's strategy will be self-defeating.

……

Independence Corps.

There is nothing to say about the other ambush battles, and the battle situation is not different from that of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment.

Now the three well-equipped Iron Triangle regiments have shown increasingly powerful combat effectiveness in ambushes. This time, the second-rate troops of the devils were ambushed. It's all one-sided.

The key is to see if the ambushed Japanese and puppet troops can be wiped out.

It is not difficult to repel the Japanese and puppet troops this time, but it is not easy to completely wipe out the Japanese and puppet troops.

Speaking of the perimeter of the Independent Regiment's defense area, the most exciting ambush this time was undoubtedly a plain area from Yangquan to the middle of Ping'an County.

This plain is not that big. To be precise, it is a bit like a basin. Although it is not surrounded by mountains, there are mostly mountains on both sides. There is a large area in the middle, which is similar to the terrain of a plain. The terrain is open and flat. The area is not small, but it can reach the end as far as the eye can see.

This place is a necessary place for the Japanese reinforcements dispatched from Yangquan to support Ping'an County.

There are also several Japanese strongholds around the plain. When the two Japanese battalions from Yangquan all the way, plus a puppet regiment, a total of more than [-] people passed through this plain, the two devil captains even Be in the mood to joke around.

One said: "This time to support Ping'an County, it is estimated that we will encounter reinforcements from the Eighth Route Army on the way. The Eighth Route Army has always played in this way."

The other said: "Yes, there is a high possibility that we will be ambushed, but it will never be a place like this."

"The terrain here is open, and there are only some open hillsides around, so there is no way to hide a large number of ambushes."

"If the Tuba Road ambushes here, the rear area is open, and we can retreat at any time and attack the Eighth Route Army with superior artillery."

The two captains of the devil brigade were very sure about this. This time, their two brigades were equipped with an additional artillery squadron, followed by more than a dozen artillery pieces. Once encountered an ambush by the Eighth Route Army on the way, it can be covered with firepower at any time to severely damage the Eighth Route Army's ambush troops.

But not long ago, Kong Jie, head of the Independent Regiment Headquarters, knocked on a point on the sand table that belonged to this plain terrain, and said flatly: "I want to eat up these more than 3000 Japanese and puppet troops in one go. The fighting area It can only be placed in this plain."

"We have an advantage in the ambush after entering the mountains, but there is also a problem. Once the Japanese army withdraws from the ambush circle we arranged in advance with the help of firepower, the devils who can also use the terrain and features to launch a counterattack can retreat calmly. Coupled with the rear artillery that the devils have been focusing on protecting, our ambush troops will definitely be bombarded by Japanese artillery."

"In this way, our casualties are unavoidable, and there is almost no possibility of annihilating the Japanese and puppet troops along the way in Yangquan."

"So it can only be placed at this point, this plain terrain between the surrounding mountains."

Shen Quan, the commander of the Second Battalion, expressed concern: "Regimental Commander, it is difficult for us to find an ambush advantage in this plain area. In addition, the Japanese army has a wide depth in the rear that can retreat at any time. Is it impossible for us to start a positional battle with the Japanese army?"

"The artillery of the devil's artillery squadron is definitely not weak."

Kong Jie asked rhetorically: "What if once the battle starts, we can quickly contain most of the Japanese and puppet troops from the two wings and directly destroy the devil's artillery squadron?"

Shen Quan smiled bitterly and said: "Head, this is unlikely, right? This plain is too vast. If our artillery is hidden at the foot of the mountain, it will be out of reach. If we go out, it will be easy to be discovered by devils. I'm afraid it will change. The artillery from both sides clashed."

"Competing with the devils on the consumption of shells, I'm afraid we won't be able to afford them."

Kong Jie said: "The two batteries have other uses, I don't plan to use the batteries here."

"what?"

The cadres were dumbfounded, the devil's artillery squadron was in front of them, how could they destroy the devil's artillery without using the artillery battery?
Kong Jie laughed and said, "Did you forget about our regiment's semi-mechanized heavy troops?"

Shen Quan said in astonishment: "Regimental Commander, you are not talking about Sun Desheng's cavalry company, are you?

We have heard about the motorized troops and cavalry troops that you built before, and they have been practicing coordinated operations these days.

But you didn't expect that this would become a semi-mechanized heavy army, right? "

Kong Jie smiled, without explaining, and directly ordered: "First Battalion Commander, Second Battalion Commander."

"Yes!" Wang Leihu and Shen Quan responded in unison.

Kong Jie pointed at the sand table and gave an order: "The first battalion is placed on the left wing close to the exit in this plain terrain, and the second battalion is placed on the right wing to block the Japanese reinforcements with crossfire. Fortifications."

"The devils have always been very arrogant, thinking that our Eighth Route Army only dares to fight guerrilla warfare that is useless, and dare not fight head-on with them. So today I want to do what they want, and I will directly fight with them in this plain area. Reinforced Japanese and puppet troops started a positional battle."

"Yes!" Although Wang Leihu and Shen Quan didn't understand what the leader's backhand was, they still agreed without hesitation.

Kong Jie said: "I know that you two have doubts in your heart. If you want to know the answer, you can ask Sun Desheng on the way and he will clear up your doubts."

"With the cooperation of the three parties, there is only one mission this time, and wipe out this Japanese and puppet army for me!"

"Yes, please rest assured, the regiment commander, and promise to complete the task!" The two battalion commanders responded loudly.
