Bright Sword: Technology is the primary productive force in war

Li Yunlong seemed calm, but he knew very well that he could not hold on for much longer.

If Chen Yan suffered heavy losses, then Li Yunlong's side could be said to have suffered a fierce battle.

He only has one battalion of regular troops led by Zhang Dabiao on his side. The county brigade has been holding on until now thanks to its large numbers, but the morale cannot be frustrated any further at this time.

He looked around the battlefield and saw that the army, which originally had 1,500 people, was reduced to only 700 to 800 people, and the mountains and plains were littered with the corpses of the Chinese.

MD, these Japanese devils are so cruel.

Relying on the coordinated infantry and artillery tactics, they dared to attack again and again and launched a long live charge.

I estimate that after two or three more rounds of charge, the troops would be basically wiped out.

Chen Er, where have you been? I can’t stand it any longer.

On the other side, the three groups of cavalry spies sent by Sun Desheng came back one after another to report.

"Report to the regiment commander, there are at least 1000 Japanese troops in the Sanyuanshi direction. Deputy regiment commander Li is holding on and refusing to retreat. The current situation is not good.

On the way, I met Captain Sun, who asked me to report to you. I estimate that they are almost at Sanyuanshi now.

When Chen Yan heard that Li Yunlong was in danger, he clenched his fists and remained silent.

Now is not the time to be impulsive, he is still waiting.

After a while, another soldier ran in panting.

"Report to the head of the group, I am... I am...

I was a cavalryman sent to the Yuci direction. Political Commissar Zhao had already ended the battle, and he asked me to come back to report. He was afraid that the Japanese would make a comeback, so he planned to hold on to the Yuci direction."

Finally hearing the good news, Chen Yan's tense expression eased a little. He stared at the door of the office, still waiting.

Finally, a man covered in dirt and in a miserable state appeared before him. He shouted:

"It's bad, Commander. The Nanling battle has failed. When I went there, the 6st Regiment of the New th Brigade had been almost wiped out. I'm afraid it has been completely wiped out by now."

Hearing this, Chen Yan pounded the table heavily.

"Fuck, the more I fear something, the more it will come."

Chen Yan stared at the military map from the arsenal to Nanling. It was over. There was no defensible position here.

If we stay in the armory, there will be no room for retreat.

Whether to run or defend, that is the question.

Chen Yan's brain was thinking rapidly, his eyes were almost bleeding, and the room was unusually quiet, with only Chen Yan's heavy breathing being heard.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh, but his eyes revealed an inexplicable firmness, behind which was the soldier's faith and obedience.

Chen Yan pointed at the cavalry who had just returned from the direction of Yuci.

"Little brother, please take a moment to help. Tell Political Commissar Zhao to quickly support San Yuanshi. The other two should go find Sun Desheng and return to the team."

Chen Yan looked at the three people who left, his eyes filled with loneliness.

Lao Xi! I got 400 Mauser pistols from you, and you actually let me work for you.

Age makes the wiser. I consider myself smart, but compared to you, you are still better at doing business!

Come on, little Japs, if you want to kill me, I will chop you twice before I die.

"Huang Yi, strengthen the defensive fortifications. It is estimated that the Japanese troops from Nanyang will be approaching in two hours."

Chen Yan allocated all the resources he could to Li Yunlong.

In his opinion, the backbone of the independent regiment cannot be lost here, so if possible, save as many as possible.

Chen Yan, with a cigarette in his mouth, walked towards the front line. He had to deploy the troops personally in this battle. Fortunately, there were plenty of weapons and ammunition in the armory, so they could probably hold out for a while.

At the same time, Li San and the special operations battalion had just arrived at the Sanyuanshi position.

Sun Desheng quietly approached Li San.

“Captain Li, our cavalry arrived first, so let me report the situation to you first.

The deputy commander's side probably lost more than half of its troops. The Japanese army just launched a charge, but the deputy commander's side held on. We are now behind the left side of the Japanese, which is a relatively advantageous position. How do you decide how to fight?"

Li San picked up the telescope and looked in the direction of Li Yunlong. At this time, the battlefield was in a mess and filled with smoke.

"We must hurry up. The deputy commander's defensive works have been destroyed beyond recognition. It's hard to say whether they can survive the next charge.

We must seize the opportunity of the next enemy charge and attack them unexpectedly from behind.

Zhuzi, tell the artillery to quickly build positions. When the Japanese charge, their numbers are relatively dense, so just use cluster arrow-shaped bombs to fire at their charge route.

All of your light and heavy firepower should be concentrated and deployed to build a defensive position here, mixing light and heavy weapons, and the positions should not be too dense.

Monk, have you seen the tent in the north? It should be the enemy's command center. The artillery can't reach it. You can take the special reconnaissance company and try to deal with them.

Captain Sun, I will exchange the Thompson of the special warfare company with your cavalry rifles. You go to the northwest corner to harass the enemy's artillery positions. The enemy has a large number of people, so don't fight to the end. Run away after you're done.

As soon as the pillar cannon sounds, all teams will act together to relieve the pressure on the deputy commander.

If we were not so outnumbered, I would have dared to engage in close combat with the devils."

Li San's current combat style is exactly the same as Chen Yan's. It is precisely because of this that he was able to completely defeat the Japanese army in front of him soon.

40 minutes later, a Japanese major drew his saber and shouted, "Give us the ducks and chickens!"

The Japanese invaders surged onto Li Yunlong's position like a tide.

Li Yunlong pouted, "Damn, you come again so soon?

Chen'er, I can't wait for you anymore, I'm leaving first. I've been your brother for twenty years."

"Brothers, listen carefully. We have limited ammunition. Wait until the enemy gets closer before you attack. If we can hold out this time, we will win.

The Japs are afraid of fighting at night, and it’s getting dark soon. I hope you’re all still here when we call roll call tomorrow morning.”

An old squad leader bared his yellow teeth and shouted back:

"Deputy Commander, don't worry. Look at my heavy machine gun. It won't be willing to kill any more than seven or eight Japanese soldiers."

"Hahaha, you are quite crazy, but I like it."

Li Yunlong's cheerful conversation actually eased the soldiers' nervousness. In fact, everyone knew what they were about to face, but there was no fear in their eyes.

Zhang Dabiao was holding a light machine gun and lighting the cigarette in his mouth with the help of the flames caused by the Japanese artillery shells.

He held his breath and counted silently:

"100 meters, 80 meters...

Brothers, fight!!!"

After Li Yunlong and the devils got into a fight, Li Sanda shouted:

"Zhu Zi, fire!!!"

In an instant, dozens of cluster arrow-shaped bombs exploded mercilessly behind the attacking Japanese.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!".

Li Yunlong was startled and picked up the telescope.

"Where to have sex?"

"Hahaha, it's a cluster arrow bomb, my brother is here."

"Brothers, reinforcements have arrived and we are saved."
