Li Yunlong took Wei Dayong to the market, disposed of all the bottles and cans in his load at a low price, and then left from the north of Nanguan Town.
The terrain and lines near the bunker towers on the highlands on both sides of the town cannot be seen clearly when looking up from below.
Li Yunlong looked around and saw a hill in the distance that was a section higher. "Monk, let's go up to that hill and have a look!"
While Li Yunlong was leading the monks to climb the mountain hard, Captain Zheng and Political Commissar Bao also led people to find a favorable terrain near Laiyuan.
Between Laiyuan and Nanguan Town, a section of the Baijin Railway is located between two protruding cliffs. As long as the cliffs on both sides are blown up with explosives, the Baijin Railway can be blocked.
In this way, the little Japanese reinforcements who are in a hurry will definitely choose to take a detour, take the road to the far west, and pass through this branch extending from the Taiyue Mountains.
The little devil must pass through Yangchang Valley. As its name suggests, the roads inside are winding and narrow.
Commander Zheng and Political Commissar Bao stood on a ridge, planning the ambush position and personnel arrangements.
"Old Bao, when the time comes, you will take the artillery fire supported by Commander Li and place it on this commanding height, and destroy the kid's artillery fire as soon as possible!"
"The first and second battalions are ambushing on the mountain ridges on both sides. The third battalion serves as the reserve team, and I lead the regiment's direct machine gun company and the supplementary brigade to block the front!"
Political Commissar Bao objected, "No, Lao Zheng, you come and lead the artillery, and I will lead the men to block the Japs. The whole regiment has to be commanded by you!"
Captain Zheng insisted, "Old Bao, I must lead the team myself. We must buy enough time for Captain Li. If I sacrifice you, you will take over!"
In the end, Commander Zheng persuaded Political Commissar Bao and implemented the original plan.
After determining the ambush location, Commander Zheng and Political Commissar Bao returned to Liushu Slope.
Li Yunlong, on the other hand, took the monk to the top of the mountain and used a telescope to overlook the two highlands and Nanguan Town.
Li Yunlong marked the locations of the open and concealed forts on the high ground, down to each offensive route, including the barbed wire fences along the way.
Then he compared the streets and lanes recorded in Nanguan Town, as well as important locations such as the Little Devils headquarters, barracks, and train station.
Li Yunlong spread the paper on the monk's back, took a pencil to write and draw, and soon a complete map of Nanguan Town appeared on the paper, with the attack route and the location of the Japs' open and secret fortresses clearly marked on it.
I have to say that it may be difficult for Li Yunlong to write a few big characters, but if you ask him to draw pictures, he is self-taught!
Li Yunlong put away the drawings and patted the monk, "Monk, let's go, it's time to go back and get ready!"
Just as Li Yunlong and Commander Zheng completed their respective surveys, the soldiers who were sent to notify their superiors finally found the commander of the 385th Brigade near Yushe County.
"Hahaha, it turns out to be Li Yunlong from the 386th Brigade. Who am I to say? He's been causing trouble for the little Japs lately!"
"I am taking advantage of this family!"
"You go back and inform your regiment commander and regiment commander Li that I agree with their battle plan. I will launch a full-scale offensive of the 385th Brigade to give the little devils a big blow!"
“I can’t tell, I, Old Chen, have to touch Yushe County!”
After the soldier left, Brigadier Chen looked at the map in front of him and clapped his hands, "This time I will give the little devil a full blow!"
In the small basin of Liushupo, Li Yunlong and Captain Zheng met again and talked to each other about their respective harvests and plans.
Li Yunlong pointed to the drawing he had drawn, "After entering Nanguan Town, our regiment immediately seized the train station and warehouse, and then drove the little devils and puppet troops to the headquarters and barracks to surround them!"
"I will first surround the blockhouses and artillery towers on the two highlands in the north of the town with a small number of troops, and then use the Qiwu Mountain Cannon to suppress them!"
"In this case, the little devil will definitely ask for help. Then it's up to Commander Zheng. Give me an hour!"
Li Yunlong raised a finger and said, "In an hour, after we finish dealing with the little Japs in Nanguan Town, I will immediately lead the troops to retreat!"
Commander Zheng nodded, "It will take more than an hour to march from Nanguan Town to Yangchang Valley."
"Three hours, no problem at all!"
In three hours, Commander Zheng was very confident. Seventy-eight percent of his 769th regiment were old Red Army soldiers, and their will to fight was very firm.
Li Yunlong began to determine the time, "Okay, let's set the time. At three o'clock tomorrow morning, our unit will launch an attack on time. If the infiltration fails, we will immediately switch to a strong attack!"
"We communicate through the radio station, and we are within the radio station's contact range of more than ten kilometers!"
"According to the plan, if the little Japanese reinforcements do not exceed the size of a brigade, Captain Zheng, please send me a message immediately, and our regiment will immediately start to eliminate the remaining enemies!"
Commander Zheng couldn't help but sigh, "It's really fun to work with Commander Li. Not only are there artillery support, there's even a radio station!"
Li Yunlong smiled when he heard this, "Hey, don't worry, Captain Zheng, we will all have these things in the future!"
Commander Zheng and Political Commissar Bao were stunned, "What does Commander Li mean?"
Li Yunlong was quite proud, "Hey, Lao Li and I opened a small ordnance depot at our regiment's headquarters. Under the supervision of our political commissar Zhao, we have now been able to solve part of the supply of ammunition and grenades!"
Commander Zheng couldn't help but say, "Really?! Commander Li will have to take more care of our 769th regiment in the future!"
Li Yunlong was very happy, "Hahaha, easy to say, easy to say!"
The two sides made all plans and immediately began to assign tasks and tactical arrangements to their respective teams.
The 769th Regiment set out first, carrying two Qiwu Mountain Cannons and four 81mm mortars supported by Li Yunlong, as well as 2,000 grenades and radio stations, heading to Yangchang Valley to prepare for an ambush.
Li Yunlong summoned Zhang Dabiao, Huang Tianning and Wang Chengzhu, "Dabiao, your second battalion is responsible for sneaking into Nanguan Town. I will transfer two companies from the third battalion to you!"
"This is a map of Nanguan Town. You will explain it clearly to the company commander and platoon commanders later. Remember the route and the kid's forts and bunkers, including the time intervals between the kid's patrols!"
"In particular, we must quickly capture the train station and warehouse. There are a large number of explosives stored in them. Be careful!"
"Then I will block the little devils and puppet soldiers in the headquarters and barracks!"
Li Yunlong looked at Huang Tianning and Wang Chengzhu again, "Third Battalion Commander, your battalion has all the new soldiers. The task is simple. Surround the two highlands in the north of the town. Don't take the initiative to attack. Leave it to Wang Chengzhu!"
"Zhuzi, you have to be responsible for suppressing the two bunker turrets with artillery fire, so that the little devils and puppet troops in the town cannot get fire support!"
"After these are completed, just wait for my order. As soon as there is news from the 769th Regiment, Zhang Dabiao, you will immediately wipe out all the little devils and puppet troops for me!"
"Then the support will come back and join the third battalion to eliminate the two highlands!"
"After everything is completed, we will immediately go to support the 769th Regiment and poke the little devil in the butt!"
"Do you all understand your respective tasks?!"
The three people saluted one after another, "Yes, leader, I promise to complete the mission!"
