Lemon thinks that since the landing, we have been at the forefront. Although more than 20,000 people from Yanyun County have come up, they have not fought any big or bad battles at all.
In addition to logistical support, he is also responsible for local security after we capture...
Yes, aren't you Yanyun Guards just some city defense troops?
"According to our agreement, you will be responsible for the main battle against the Japanese in Gaojuli. We only provide sufficient logistics. It should be said that so far, our cooperation is still very pleasant. General Ross is very brave. Raymond You are indeed an excellent general, but this does not mean that our Yanyun Army is not good."
Xiao Chen felt that it was time to show the strength of Yan Yunwei, otherwise these arrogant Ross people would always not have enough respect for Yan Yunjun.
Now Xiao Chen and the others are preparing to launch a general attack on Xijing. Currently, the western front faces two important towns, one is Anyue City and the other is Fengshan City.
These two cities are the left and right wings of Xijing, like two gates, forming a perfect protection for Xijing. As long as these two cities are captured, the door to Xijing will be opened.
These two cities are heavily guarded by Japanese troops, and it is not easy to attack them. Now our Yanyun Army and the Ross Army each attack a city to see who can capture it first.
This is not to control your Qi with Laimeng, but to let you know that our Yanyun Army can not only defend the city, but also attack it.
The troops and defenses in the two cities are similar. Each city has about eight to nine thousand people. We currently have more than 10,000 people in each city, so we should be able to capture it.
Lemon, you can choose a city first, and the remaining one belongs to us.
I personally offer a reward of one million taels of silver to whoever captures the target city first!
"This is what you said, Boss Xiao Chen." Lemon was overjoyed, "You must keep your word."
"There are no jokes in the army!" Xiao Chen said.
"Then I'll choose Anyue City!" Since it's you, Xiao Chen, who wants me to choose first, then I won't be polite. This is called taking responsibility.
Because Anyue City is only ten miles away from their camp and can be reached at any time, and Anyue City is surrounded by plain terrain. Not only can the cavalry be deployed, but also siege formations can be arranged calmly, and many large-scale siege equipment can also be deployed. It can be used.
Fengshan City is located in the mountain pass between Fengshan Mountain and Huangshan Mountain. It is surrounded by forested highlands and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Therefore, anyone who can lead troops will choose Anyue City without hesitation.
In fact, Lemon and the others had already formulated an attack plan for Anyue City. With everything being prepared, it would only take three or two days to capture the city.
Xiao Chen agreed with his choice, but also warned him not to underestimate the enemy. The reason why the operations since our landing went smoothly is because the Japanese did not expect that we would land from the west coast, so the defensive measures were relatively incomplete. Most of them are their second-rate troops.
Now they have shrunk their defense line and concentrated all their forces in the center, preparing to rely on the city and terrain advantages for stubborn resistance, so the next battle will be extremely difficult.
I heard that those stationed in Anyue City are part of the elite red army under the command of the famous Japanese general Tsuruta Aoyama. Their combat effectiveness is quite strong. Lemon, you must not take it lightly.
"Haha, I have heard of the Red Army. I think it was deified and exaggerated by themselves, or the opponents they encountered before were too weak. In front of our Ross invincible army, there is no essence at all. They are all scum!" Lemon was fighting with overwhelming force, his confidence was bursting, and Xiao Chen's advice was quite harsh.
"General Lemon, the combat effectiveness of the Red Army is still very strong. Not only do they have Japan's first-class heavy armored cavalry, but they also have the Tsuruta cavalry who are good at riding and shooting. They are good at coordinating operations with multiple arms. Not only do they have extraordinary He has the ability to defend the city and strong attack power, but he is not a scumbag either." Wei Yuntian said.
After Wei Yuntian and Guan Yunfei completed the handover in Xiao Chen, they rushed back to participate in the Battle of Yizhou. He was the main general on Yanyun's side.
"Hahaha, why are you scared, General Yuntian?" Lemon laughed after hearing this.
He has always looked down on Wei Yuntian, thinking that the reason why he was able to achieve the high position of General Yanyun was because he was Xiao Chen's brother, but his abilities were actually quite limited.
Although he is the most elite Black Dragon Guard from the Great Zhou Dynasty, I heard that he is just a small captain. Maybe he can lead a few hundred people to charge into battle, but he can command tens of thousands of people in battle... I'm afraid it's far from enough.
"I'm not afraid, I'm very scared." Wei Yuntian said, "General Lemon, your attitude of ignoring your opponent makes me even more afraid."
"General Yuntian, are you afraid of losing to me? That's why you talk about that Red Army soldier so powerfully." Lemon was full of contempt for Wei Yuntian.
"That's not what I meant." Wei Yuntian sighed, "I just remind General Lemon to be more cautious and never act recklessly. I heard Yan Pingqiu say that he had encountered the Tsuruta Red Bei Army before, and he also I suffered a big loss..."
"General Yuntian, you should worry about your Fengshan City. Anyue City can be left to me. I will wait for the news of General Yuntian's victory in Anyue City!" Lemon turned a deaf ear to Wei Yuntian's advice. .
The Yuji tribe cavalry and Yizhou guards were almost rested. Both of them actively requested to participate in the war. Xiao Chen asked Lemon to choose one as his assistant.
Lemon chose Aguta's cavalry without hesitation, but he still said that I didn't actually need General Aguta's help at all, I just let them help the formation...
There are only more than 2,000 Yizhou guards in total, but now there are only more than 1,000 people.
It's not all due to combat attrition. Sima Zhongping left more than a thousand people along the road to cooperate with Gao Juli's guerrilla forces to clear out the remnants, pacify the place, and stabilize the front line, waiting for Wanyan Pingqiu to send troops to take over.
However, Aguta's Yuji cavalry simply cares about the head and not the tail. They are warriors like the wind. They kill the Japanese when they see them, kill them all, and leave after killing them without stopping at all.
Of course they won't send troops to stay in the local area. They are soldiers, not local officials. How can they meddle in so many other things?
They have fought with very few casualties so far, and there are still about 3,000 people left. The Yuji tribe's fighting power is well known, so even a fool will choose them.
Although it was a gambling match, Wei Yuntian still generously gave half of the limited armored siege vehicles in his army to Lemon, and also lent him the only one hundred latest armored crossbow vehicles, because Fengshan City is a mountain and forest terrain, and the ballista cannot move at all.
From the perspective of taking the overall situation into consideration, Lemon is far inferior to Yuntian. Yuntian is no longer the brave man he was before. He has matured a lot in the past few years.
He even specially transferred a newly arrived medical team to Lemon, because he expected Lemon and the others to suffer heavy casualties in this battle...
