"Brother, how do you think this battle should be fought?"
Everyone was studying the terrain, and Li Yunlong suddenly asked.
"Me? You asked me to hit you and I just pushed flat."
Li Qiufan spread his hands, holding the cannon battalion in his heart, and spoke with an octave of forcefulness.
"Harm, if you play like this, we, Old Li, can't afford to lose your shells."
Li Yunlong waved his hand, indicating that this plan was not feasible because it would waste too much ammunition.
"Brother, you have more than 8,000 people in your hands. It's just a patchwork of troops. Each one of them can drown them with his spit."
Li Qiufan wondered where Li Yunlong's energy in attacking Ping'an County had gone. Now he was struggling to fight a loose unit.
"Damn it! Who are you looking down on!"
Li Yunlong was so excited that he slapped the table and stood up.
"That's right. When did you, Commander Li, act like a bitch?"
Li Qiufan laughed happily, this old Li was too cute.
the next day.
The independent regiments gathered early in the morning, and Li Qiufan's reconnaissance battalion and artillery battalion were no exception.
"Brother, these cannons of yours really make me feel very excited!"
Looking at the various artillery pieces placed in front of the artillery camp, Lao Li's saliva almost flowed out.
"I said, Lao Li, don't try to trick me. If you want to shoot me, I'll go find the Japanese!"
Li Qiufan felt a little panicked when he heard Li Yunlong's words, fearing that he was not a man of martial ethics and that he would dare to send troops to rob food.
"Brother, what are you talking about? We, Lao Li, can rob our own brothers. We rob the Japanese. Let's go now!"
After that, the two teams set off towards the Dawangzhuang stronghold.
After half a day, the team arrived at the designated location.
"Brother, we have a lot of money today. After the artillery bombards the infantry, I will wait for your signal!"
Li Yunlong patted Li Qiufan on the shoulder, and then led the independent regiment to arrange the direction of attack.
"Lao Ma, set up the artillery!"
After Lao Li left, Li Qiufan called Lao Ma and asked him to set up artillery positions.
"Captain Li, our commander said it's almost time. We should finish the fight early and go back to treat you to braised pork."
As soon as the artillery was finished, a young soldier from an independent regiment ran over.
"Hey, Lao Zhao, it seems we can eat meat today!"
When he heard that there was braised pork, Li Qiufan smiled at Zhao Gang next to him.
"You, I bought you a meal of braised pork. This shell is not more expensive than braised pork!"
Zhao Gang glared at Li Qiufan angrily.
Li Qiufan scratched his head in embarrassment, then turned to look at the artillery position: "Old horse! One test shot!"
"boom!"
A shell landed accurately in the center of the Japanese stronghold, and then exploded.
The Japanese in the stronghold quickly gathered after hearing the sound of artillery and began to organize defensive positions.
"All gunners listen to the order, fire three rounds rapidly, let go!"
Seeing that the target of the test fire was correct, Li Qiufan gave the order to fire a salvo.
The artillery battalion of the 22nd Regiment had a total of forty artillery pieces. Three rapid fire rounds equaled one hundred and twenty rounds of artillery shells, which directly exploded the Dawangzhuang stronghold into a sea of flames.
"Be a good boy, this is the first time our Lao Li is so rich!"
Seeing the scene of shelling in the stronghold, Li Yunlong was extremely shocked. This was the first time that he had such powerful firepower.
As the bombardment stopped, the charge horn was sounded from the Independence Regiment, and the first batch of three battalions rushed forward.
"Hey, Lao Zhao, you watch here, I'll go up and play too!"
Li Qiufan's blood boiled with excitement when he saw the soldiers charging. He grabbed a rifle and was about to charge forward.
"Monk! Hug the leader, if he comes up, I will shoot you!"
Zhao Gang was shocked when he saw Li Qiufan's actions and roared directly at the monk.
When the monk heard Zhao Gang's words, he didn't think much and hugged Li Qiufan.
"Monk, why the hell are you hugging me again? I'm not a young girl, so why are you hugging me so hard?"
Li Qiufan, who was hugged, kept twisting his body, trying to break free from the monk's restraints.
Although his reach was better than that of a monk, it was still a bit troublesome to be hugged from behind.
"Captain, the political commissar said you won't be allowed to go up. I'll listen to the political commissar on this matter!"
The monk grinned and smiled at Li Qiufan with a pair of big white teeth.
"Qiu Fan, if you continue to act like this, I will go back and complain to the brigade commander!"
Seeing that Li Qiufan was about to break free, Zhao Gang hurriedly moved out the brigade commander to calm the situation.
"Damn! Lao Zhao, since when did you like to tell lies?"
Li Qiufan immediately lost his temper when he heard the name of brigade commander, but he still spoke unforgivingly.
"Huh, don't worry about me. You are the leader of the regiment. Just stay in the back. What will happen to the 22nd regiment if something happens to you!"
Zhao Gang's temper also rose, and he pointed at Li Qiufan and gave him a scolding.
"That's okay. I won't charge anymore. I'll fight with the rifle, okay?"
Li Qiufan gave in. He didn't want to fight with the brigade commander.
"you promise?"
Zhao Gang still didn't believe it.
"I promise! If I rush up to you again, I'll take your last name, Lao Zhao. That's okay!"
Li Qiufan reluctantly made a promise and put his own name on the line.
After hearing Li Qiufan's promise, Zhao Gang asked the monk to let him go.
"Humph, let's see how I deal with you when we get back!"
Li Qiufan straightened his clothes, stared at the monk and said.
"Captain, if you beat me up, I will go to the brigade commander and complain!"
The monk is now learning and selling, threatening Li Qiufan.
"Complain? I'll kick you to death!"
Hearing that the monk wanted to file a complaint, Li Qiufan was so angry that he kicked the monk directly, thinking that Zhao Gang had distorted the atmosphere of the 22nd group.
"Boom, boom..."
While Li Qiufan was educating the monks, several gunshots suddenly rang out in the stronghold, and then an explosion occurred in the charging ranks of the independent regiment.
"Damn it, you didn't shoot down the Japanese cannon."
"Send someone to dig out the Japanese artillery positions!"
Li Qiufan frowned and shouted loudly to the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, asking him to find the Japanese artillery positions.
The soldiers from the reconnaissance battalion returned soon after being sent out and handed the coordinates of the Japanese artillery positions to Li Qiufan.
"Old Ma, follow these coordinates and blast him!"
Li Qiufan gave the left side to Lao Ma, and then ordered the bombardment of the Japanese artillery positions.
"Boom boom boom!"
Three 75mm mountain cannons fired a salvo, and in an instant, mud splashed everywhere in a corner of the stronghold, and then the gunfire from the Japanese side stopped abruptly.
"His grandma, if you play with my artillery camp, you can't be killed!"
Li Qiufan saw that the Japanese artillery position was destroyed and cursed in anger.
After clearing the Japanese artillery, the independent regiment's attack went smoothly. Li Qiufan also picked up his rifle and started firing.
"boom!"
A gunshot rang out, and a machine gunner on the Japanese position had a hole in his head, and then fell to the ground.
Li Yunlong also saw the shot. He looked around but did not find the shooter, and then continued to direct the battle.
