The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Chapter 462 Soldiers siege Anhua County

Author: Star Traveler

"We are fully capable of destroying this group of enemies before the Japanese reinforcements arrive." After speaking, Ding Wei threw the pen aside and looked at Li Yunlong and Kong Jie.

When the Japanese army had the upper hand before, they divided their troops into four groups and surrounded the three regiments, intending to slowly grind them to death after they recovered.

But no one expected that after more than half a year of tug-of-war, the strength of the Eighth Route Army would grow so fast, and now the situation has reversed. Although the Japanese army also discovered anomalies, they were still unsure about the specific strength of the Eighth Route Army.

Knowing that, there was no troop adjustment, which just gave Li Yunlong and the others a loophole that they could break through individually.

After listening to Ding Wei's words, Li Yunlong immediately clapped his hands, and then said with a smile: "Old Ding, you are really a fool, why did you think of joining me? To tell you the truth, I discussed it with Lao Zhao before

That’s how it was decided.”

While talking, Li Yunlong got up and came to the map, picked up the pen on the table and pointed in the direction of Anhua County and said: "I have sent people to inquire before, and there are about 8,000 Japanese troops in Anhua County.

, I think this way, our new regiment will be responsible for annihilating this group of Japs, and your two regiments will be responsible for blocking the Japs’ reinforcements in all directions. After our new regiment has finished its work, we will then turn around and meet you.

The two regiments work together to annihilate the little Japs who came to support Anhua County."

Li Yunlong did this after careful consideration. To deal with the 8,000 Japanese troops heading toward Anhua County, his new regiment of more than 20,000 people was definitely enough, and he also knew that the strength of the new second regiment and the independent regiment had increased too quickly and their combat effectiveness had declined.

If the two regiments were allowed to fight the Japs head-on, not only would the casualties be huge, but the Japs might also be able to seize the opportunity to break out of the encirclement and join up with the Japanese troops who came for reinforcements. In this case, their combat plan would be in vain.

.

However, the reinforcements used by the two regiments to block the Japs were different. They relied on the commanding heights on both sides of the road to defend and built some fortifications. Even if the combat effectiveness was not comparable to that of the Japs, they could still hold on for a period of time.

As long as Li Yunlong and his new group finish the work, it is basically difficult for the little devil to stand up.

"I said, Lao Li, Lao Ding, you two are brave enough. You two want to kill the little devils at the same time. Isn't this movement a bit big? Thirty thousand Japanese troops, the strength of two entire divisions,

It was so easy to win."

And Yoshio Shinozuka, an old devil, wouldn't just watch us wipe out his two elite Kwantung Army divisions without taking any action. If this old guy is moving troops from other areas, then we should

What should we do?" Kong Jie said to Li Yunlong and Ding Wei while smoking heavily.

It’s not surprising that Kong Jie played a different tune. The Japanese army had this precedent before. You must know that since the Japanese invaded the country, the number of casualties totaled hundreds of thousands at most, and two divisions were killed at one time.

There is no such precedent on the domestic battlefield.

The little devils would definitely not let the troops of the two divisions be wiped out by the Eighth Route Army and ignore them. Even for the sake of their own prestige, they would send troops to reinforce them. At worst, they would let them break out.

Li Yunlong laughed when he heard Kong Jie's words, and then said unceremoniously to Kong Jie: "To mobilize troops, where will he mobilize them from? They still have extra troops that can be mobilized."

"No, Lao Li, what do you mean by this?" Kong Jie felt a little wrong after hearing Li Yunlong's words and asked back.

Ding Wei, who was on the side, also heard that something was wrong with Li Yunlong's words, so he followed up and asked: "Old Li, I heard there is something in your words. Just tell me what you have to say. There are no outsiders here."

"Don't you two find anything wrong with the Japs?" Li Yunlong put down his pen, sat down and took a sip of water and asked.

He had been paying attention to the movements of the Japs before, and sent elite teams to other war zones to collect intelligence. According to the news sent back by the monks and others, as expected by Li Yunlong, the age of the Japs soldiers in many places began to get younger, and some

He was sent here from Japan even before he was an adult.

Moreover, due to the tight fighting situation in the Pacific battlefield, many units of the Kwantung Army in the Northeast were transferred there. The Japanese troops remaining in the Northeast were said to be the Kwantung Army, but their combat effectiveness was incomparable to the previous troops.

Moreover, some of the Japanese troops in North China have also been deployed to support the battlefield in Southeast Asia. Therefore, the Japanese troops remaining in the country are already stretched thin. It is already very difficult to maintain security in the occupied areas. There is no extra force to be transferred to southwestern Shanxi to follow Li Yunlong.

They are against each other.

Because the Japanese army itself was depleted, it had no choice but to expand the number of puppet troops in the country in order to stabilize the domestic situation and confuse the Central Army and the Eighth Route Army.

People who have not carefully understood this situation do not know this situation at all, and they think how powerful the Japanese army is.

After hearing what Ding Wei and Kong Jie said, Zhao Gang also spoke up: "Old Li, please stop stretching your arms and just say what you have to say, so that Captain Ding and Captain Kong can rest assured."

Li Yunlong rolled his eyes at Zhao Gang and then said: "I don't know if you have noticed. Although the Japanese army has maintained its strong style in the past six months, its domestic offensive has slowed down. At first, I thought it was just here.

So I sent people to other areas to learn more about the situation, and based on the information they sent back, I discovered a problem."

"What's the problem? Could it be that Japan's conscience has revealed that it plans to withdraw its troops from the country and return to its homeland?" Ding Wei raised his head and looked at Li Yunlong and asked.

He knew that such a thing was impossible. With the greedy character of the little devil, he would spit out the meat he had eaten. He just said this to stimulate Li Yunlong and wanted him to tell what he knew quickly.

Hearing Ding Wei's words, Li Yunlong rolled his eyes at him angrily and said: "The Japanese army's actions are somewhat abnormal. Their local troops are no longer enough. Many young recruits have appeared on various battlefields, some of whom are not even adults yet."

They were sent here, and the number of puppet troops in many places has exceeded that of the Japanese. Don’t you think it’s a little abnormal?”

"Old Li, are you saying that the Japanese war potential has been almost exhausted?" Kong Jie asked in disbelief after hearing Li Yunlong's words.

"There is nothing to doubt about this. After all, the little devils' local situation is where they are. They originally started a war with us with the snake swallowing the elephant, and they also frantically expanded the scale of the war and opened up several battlefields. I have thought of this before

The situation, I just didn't expect it to come so quickly." Ding Wei thought for a while and said.

He had read an article written by his leader on protracted war before, so he knew that although the Japanese army seemed arrogant and domineering in the country, it could not last for a few years. When he thought about it, this situation would happen but it should be a few years later. He knew that two years ago, the Japanese army

The Japanese were still chasing the Central Army everywhere, but the Eighth Route Army did not dare to touch them and could only play guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines. He did not expect that the situation would change so much in just two years.

"Good guy, you both know about this, but I don't." Kong Jie smoked a cigarette and said with a little loss in his heart. Before, he had been worried about his independent group and paid little attention to other things.

And his character is like this.

After Ding Wei finished speaking, Li Yunlong continued: "Although the current strength of the Japanese army has declined, it is not so easy for us to counterattack. We can only do it step by step. Our most important thing now is to clear out the surrounding Japanese troops.

force, and then develop its own strength well. After all, with the Japanese troops of these two divisions watching from the sidelines, they are always a threat."

"I agree with Lao Li's view. As long as the Japs can be eliminated or driven out, the six or seven surrounding counties will become the base areas of our three regiments. Not only can our defense area be expanded, but the number of ordinary people in the defense area will also increase.

In this way we can expand our troops, and eliminating this group of devils can replenish our weapons and equipment." After Li Yunlong finished speaking, Ding Wei was the first to stand up and support.

After hearing Ding Wei's words, Li Yunlong set his sights on Kong Jie.

"Okay, our old Kong has done it with you two. Anyway, I know that you, Li Yunlong, will not engage in loss-making business." Seeing that Ding Wei supported Li Yunlong, Kong Jie had no choice but to say.

"Captain Ding, Commander Kong, don't worry. Lao Li has been thinking about it for a long time. We are 100% sure that we will succeed in this battle." Seeing that both of them agreed, Zhao Gang stood up and said to them with a smile.

As the political commissar of the New Regiment, Zhao Gang has witnessed the development and growth of the New Regiment since he came to the New Regiment. From the approximately 2,000 troops when he first arrived, it has expanded more than tenfold in just two years.

Up to now, the strength of the New Regiment has reached more than 23,000 people. If Ping'an County had not restricted the development of the New Regiment, the strength might have been even more.

Therefore, he knew that only by wiping out the surrounding Japanese troops and further expanding the New Regiment's defense area could the New Regiment's strength be developed. Otherwise, this level would already be the peak of the New Regiment.

Now that they had decided to take the initiative to attack the Japanese, Ding Wei and Kong Jie began to mobilize their troops after returning, occupying the commanding heights and building fortifications on the only road leading to Anhua County in the defense zone.

And Li Yunlong was not idle either. After Ding Wei and Kong Jie left, he held a meeting and mobilized eight battalions of troops to quietly move around the Japanese camp in Anhua County. When Li Yunlong gave the order, he began to launch a general offensive.

However, such a large-scale mobilization of troops by the Eighth Route Army still cannot be hidden from the informants of various forces.

The first to get the news was the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army stationed in Pinggu Town, Anhua County. Chu Yunfei had brought his troops here since the last withdrawal from Ping'an County.

I originally thought that the Japanese army would soon annihilate Li Yunlong and his three regiments. After all, the Japanese were really serious about it. Even the Kwantung Army was mobilized. There was no reason why they couldn't annihilate Li Yunlong and his group.

But the actual situation was beyond Chu Yunfei's expectation. Not only did the Japanese army fail to eliminate Li Yunlong, but their own strength also suffered losses. The decisive battle turned into a tug-of-war and lasted for more than half a year.

Li Yunlong has not been solved yet, which made him think a little bit, wondering whether the Japanese army's combat effectiveness was no longer enough, and even the two Tubal forces could not solve it.

This was still the Kwantung Army in his impression. If the Kwantung Army had this kind of virtue, then he would have nothing to fear.

So Chu Yunfei was a little eager to give it a try, thinking that Li Yunlong could be good at it himself, so he found an opportunity to have a head-on fight with the little devil.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they met, the Japanese army defeated his 358th regiment. In the end, Yan Xishan intervened and apologized. The main target of the Japanese army was the Eighth Route Army, and they did not want to offend the Jin Dynasty by causing trouble.

The Sui Army used the donkey to let go of the 358th Regiment.

Since then, Chu Yunfei has calmed down and stayed in the defense area of ​​Pinggu Town to train troops, mainly because the last battle made him a little autistic.

When he thought about it, the combat effectiveness of his 358th regiment and Li Yunlong's new regiment should be comparable. It made no sense that Li Yunlong could beat him but couldn't. Could it be that his ability was not good enough.

Just when Chu Yunfei was thinking wildly in the regiment headquarters, Chief of Staff Fang Ligong strode in.

"Regiment seat, the frontline observers have received intelligence that Li Yunlong's troops of the Eighth Route Army have made a big move. Eight regiments of troops have already rushed towards us." After Fang Ligong came in, he didn't have time to drink water and immediately reported to Chu Yunfeihui.

Chu Yunfei was surprised when he heard Fang Ligong's words, and then said: "What did you say, the strength of eight regiments? How come there are so many troops? Did you get it wrong? Also, you said Li Yunlong's

The new regiment has also arrived, so the other seven regiments are all units of the Eighth Route Army?"

"Regiment seat, the troops of these eight regiments are all coming from the direction of Ping'an County. If my guess is correct, these troops should be the troops of Li Yunlong's new regiment."

Fang Ligong had a feeling of unspeakable bitterness. When Chu Yunfei decided to have contact with the Japanese army, he had opposed it. After all, they were here for Li Yunlong's new regiment. There was no need to ask for trouble, but

Chu Yunfei didn't listen.

I feel that Li Yunlong dares to go head-to-head with the little Japs. If he doesn’t dare, then he is inferior to Li Yunlong. But now I know that Li Yunlong has the strength to dare to go head-to-head with the little Japs. If nothing else, just take

In terms of military strength, it is definitely a lot more than the Japanese, but it is indeed a bit late to know now.

"What, Li Yunlong's new regiment has eight regiments of troops? How come there are so many people?" Chu Yunfei suddenly felt a lump in his throat when he heard Fang Ligong's words. He said how could Li Yunlong dare to compete with the little devil? It turned out that

People are confident.

But he can't learn this kind of confidence, because the size of the Jinsui Army is determined by his superiors, and he can't expand it if he wants. Even if he can recruit soldiers, it will be in vain if he doesn't replenish weapons and equipment.
