Chapter 88 88 [The turning point of World War II—The Battle of Pinangrad]

Zhao Gang still did not stop Li Yunlong, and after sending out the correspondents, the battle to attack Ping'an County began.

When the Independent Regiment wanted to attack the county seat, the base areas it opened up and the local armed forces in the guerrilla zone naturally couldn't stand by and watch, so they started working vigorously.

And Kazuki Yamamoto in the county seat is the commander's confidant and favorite general. A telegram for help was sent, and Northwest Shanxi boiled like a pot. Reinforcements here.

In addition to the main forces of the Eighth Route Army, the surrounding guerrilla areas also had large numbers of county brigades, district squads, militias and other local armed forces.

There are not a few Jinsui troops stationed nearby, as well as the Central Army.Although there is no order for coordinated operations between the Eighth Route Army and the Kuomintang Army.

Moreover, the internal communication capabilities of the Eighth Route Army were very poor, and the communication between the main forces and local forces was also very poor. The various departments in the surrounding guerrilla zones had no idea that Li Yunlong was here to attack the county town.

But as long as the Japanese army comes out of the stronghold in front of him, he cannot be allowed to walk happily. This is a good opportunity to ambush and extract the stronghold. Can he not take advantage of it?
As a result, the Eighth Route Army units in northwestern Shanxi, the Central Army, the Shanxi-Sui Army units, and the anti-Japanese armed forces in various regions, including the bandits Shan Dawang who were gathering in the mountains and forests, were all involved. The northwestern Shanxi was really in chaos.

The Taiyuan garrison sent two regiments to take a train to Northwest Shanxi for reinforcements. After walking tens of kilometers, the train stopped.The commander got out of the car and saw that more than ten kilometers of railroad tracks had disappeared.They also had to get out of the car and walk.

But they didn't go far, and they bumped into Kong Jie's defense area of ​​the new second regiment.At this time, the communication cavalry of the independent regiment had not arrived yet!
Kong Jie had already figured out something. There was Li Yunlong's independent group around Ping'an County. With his trouble-making nature, he must have stabbed the swindler again.The little devil is really impatient this time, so let's not let them pass.

Following his order, the New Second Regiment, together with the county brigades, district squads, and militia, almost all went into battle. Relying on the favorable terrain, they were about to launch a full-scale blockade.

The Japanese army in Fu'an received a reinforcement order, and the two regiments ran into Ding Wei's new regiment head-on as soon as they left the stronghold.

The little devil acted like he was crazy, and launched seven or eight group charges in one breath, and the artillery fire covering the charge was also very fierce. He used all the large-caliber heavy artillery, and beat up the second battalion of the new regiment for a half Disabled.

The army and the little devils are so reckless, and sooner or later they will be wiped out.But let the little devil pass, and the independent group will suffer.

Ding Wei pondered for a while, and immediately had an idea.The new regiment's defense area is more than 30 miles deep, including passes, bridges, and more than a dozen commanding heights that can guard the road.

Landmines were laid along the highway line so that the little devils had no way out.Send a small force to occupy the commanding heights and resist the sharp edges that slow down its attack.Then blow up all the bridges, and this group of little devils will never want to attend this big banquet in Ping'an County.

Sure enough, as soon as the Xinyituan side opened the intersection, the devils had no idea of ​​entanglement at all, and they assembled their troops and started on their way.

But before they had gone far, the lead car was directly blown over, it was a land mine.

The Japanese sent engineers to detect mines. As soon as they swept the minefield, the mines were triggered again, killing half of the Japanese engineers again.The remaining half still wanted to clear mines, but were instantly knocked down by the sudden machine gun fire.

This time there was no minesweeper.

The little devil was also in a hurry, and rushed forward in a battle formation, but missed again.In the past, the devil commander would definitely not fight such a useless battle, but he was ordered to reinforce at all costs.

So I can only order to attack and move forward, and the troops fight while walking.The Eighth Route Army continued to harass them all the way, and within less than twenty kilometers, the devils had already suffered one-third of the casualties, and the devil commander was about to vomit blood.

The reinforcement troops of the Japanese army stationed in Luyang were in an ambush on the way. First, they were attacked by a battalion of the Central Army. They exchanged fire for an hour, and both sides suffered casualties.

After the central army withdrew, the Japanese army continued to walk, but was repeatedly harassed by guerrillas, and mine warfare and sparrow warfare were fought in turn.

The guerrillas had a variety of weapons, including Guangxu's earthen cannons, big poles, blunderbuss, matchlocks, and firecrackers in iron buckets, which kept crackling.

The lethality of the earth cannon at close range is not small. A large amount of iron sand is wrapped in dozens of kilograms of gunpowder, and it is sprayed out in a fan-like manner with a "boom", and it is directly plowed within three to forty meters. All living targets are either killed or injured.

The number of wounded in the Japanese army was increasing, and the commander ordered a small team to escort the wounded back to the stronghold.Who ever wanted to be attacked by a group of bandits on the way back to the stronghold, and all the soldiers in a small team were killed.

The bandits did not have any preferential treatment for prisoners or any humanitarian policy. They first robbed military supplies and even stripped off the clothes of the wounded. Then they slaughtered the wounded one by one. Dozens of naked corpses were thrown on the road. above, as if mocking the incompetence of the Japanese army.

The peripheral blocking troops were fighting lively, and the area around Ping'an County was not bad either.The independent regiment allocated one-third of its troops to lead local armed forces to fight for reinforcements, blocking all roads within fifty kilometers around the county seat, and laying thousands of earth-made landmines alone.

At the battle meeting to attack the county seat, the battalion commanders of the first battalion, the third battalion and the fourth battalion were all fighting for the main attack.Only Yuan Pengfei and Zhang Dabiao sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.

No matter which battalion is the main attacker, Zhang Dabiao will definitely lead the team.And Yuan Pengfei had known Li Yunlong's personality for a long time, and with a force of ten to one, of course he was going to attack in an all-round way!
But this time he made a wrong estimate. At one moment and another, there was no heavy artillery fire to open the city gate. Of course, Li Yunlong had to attack from all sides to disperse the enemy's firepower.

At this time, there were four Italian cannons with 219 rounds, more than enough to blast all the way in.

Li Yunlong directly assigned tasks and said: "Listen up, this time we attack from all sides, with the first battalion on the west wall as the main attack, and the rest are all feint attacks to disperse the enemy's forces.

In the county town, the little devil has an infantry squadron, a gendarmerie, and a puppet army brigade.The strength of the little devil is also possible, let's not touch that bad luck.

But that puppet army brigade used to be a security group, and its combat effectiveness was simply inferior.Find out for me the direction in which they are stationed. With four Italian cannons and eight mortars, I have flattened the top of the city.

Remember, the troops that attack first should not rush in deep, first penetrate along the city wall in a detour, kill the enemy's defensive forces on the city wall, open the city gate, and then attack in depth from four directions, compressing the enemy in the center, and finally clean up. "

Doesn't this have anything to do with him?

Yuan Pengfei didn't care about being reserved, and hurriedly said: "Commander, I'm familiar with this Italian cannon, I'll take the cannon and shoot again and again!"
