"Then execute the order!" With a wave of Li Yunlong's hand, Zhang Dabiao and the others immediately disbanded.
Return to their respective teams and make a series of arrangements and preparations.
Zhang Dabiao has the heaviest task. He must plan the offensive route and specific mission objectives of each company, and control the mission progress and time.
"Wang Kai, your company is in charge of the train station and warehouse. Pay special attention to the warehouse and try not to use grenades and rockets. There are a lot of explosives inside!"
"I will lead the fifth siege company to be in charge of the little devil's headquarters, and the sixth company will be in charge of solving the several open and hidden forts at the entrance of the town!"
"Leave the barracks and patrols of the Japs and puppet troops to the Seventh and Ninth Companies of the Third Battalion!"
"The unified operation time is three o'clock in the morning. All units must lurk in place. When the time is up, launch an attack immediately!"
"If you are accidentally discovered by a kid during the process, then switch to open attack in advance and use the sound of gunfire as a signal!"
"After each unit has succeeded, are you clear about the next order from the regiment leader?!"
Zhang Dabiao glanced at the company and platoon leaders, and after making sure that everyone was fine, he said, "Okay, everyone, go back and be mobilized and prepared. We will set off on time in an hour!"
For the Third Battalion, although the task is simple, they still cannot relax. After all, most of them are new recruits.
Huang Tianning broke up the last eight companies and put them into recruit classes. Each class made sure to have at least two veterans.
The recruits were divided into two groups. He and Xie Xiaoming each took a group of more than 300 people.
Huang Tianning was in charge of Jizi Mountain and Xie Xiaoming was in charge of Qin Wupo. They told all the veterans to tell the new recruits that they should just follow what they had practiced before, find a bunker, calmly aim and hit!
"Don't worry about not being able to hit anyone and wasting bullets. Your first priority is to protect yourself first!"
The veterans took the trouble to tell the recruits over and over again, asking them to protect themselves first.
An hour later, with a wave of Li Yunlong's hand, "The whole army sets off!"
The Seventh Regiment embarked on their first battle to become famous!
As evening approached, the units of the Second and Third Battalions had already moved to their scheduled attack positions. The soldiers once again checked their weapons, equipment and ammunition reserves, then gnawed on cold steamed buns and quietly waited for the night to come.
On the other side, Captain Zheng led the 769th Regiment to the Yangchang Valley. According to the pre-planned positions, each battalion began to set up ambush positions.
After the platoon leader of the same artillery company confirmed that it was okay, Political Commissar Bao led the supporting artillery company to the commanding heights, "Platoon leader Chen, when the Japs enter our encirclement, we will fire first to attract the Japs' firepower."
"When the time comes, please attack the Japs' artillery as soon as possible. Make sure that the Japs lose their artillery support!"
Platoon Leader Chen nodded affirmatively, "Commander, please rest assured, our artillery scouts will definitely determine the location of the Little Japanese artillery as soon as possible. They all carry gun scopes and walkie-talkies!"
"Next, we will provide sufficient fire support for your regiment. Our regiment leader said that there is no problem even if all the artillery shells are fired!"
After hearing this, Political Commissar Bao glanced at the boxes of artillery shells being carried up by the logistics team behind the artillery position, and couldn't help but sigh, "This is the first time we have fought such a rich battle!"
Now, Political Commissar Bao was more confident about this battle.
As night gradually fell, the little devils in Nanguan Town began to take turns to rest. On the two highlands in the north of the town, high-power searchlights were lit, slowly scanning the dark ground.
In the early morning, everything is quiet. Compared with the first half of the night, the searchlight on Xiaojiizi Highland takes a long time to scan back and forth.
Taking this opportunity, the units of the Second and Third Battalions began their respective actions.
Zhang Dabiao led the Fifth Company and Sixth Company to sneak in from the south of Nanguan Town.
Lowering their voices, walking lightly, and relying on the faint moonlight, the soldiers quietly walked along the railway to the entrance of the town.
"Quick, here, the first squad is responsible for the bunker on the right!" According to the pre-planned plan, the Sixth Company hid in the blind spot of the little devil's sight and aimed the super bazooka at several open bunkers and bunkers at the entrance of the town.
The sentries at the entrance of the town, including the little Japs in the open and dark forts, were yawning profusely and did not notice that Zhang Dabiao had already led someone to touch him under his nose.
Zhang Dabiao led the fifth company from the side of the town entrance, clinging to the wall of a house, and sneaked into the town from the perspective of the little devil.
Then along the planned advance route, the alternating intervals of the little devil patrols were determined, and they moved quickly in the town.
"Turn left, turn right at the second alley, pass through an alley, then turn left again to cross two streets!"
The sneaking went smoothly according to the plan. Not long after, Zhang Dabiao led the fifth company to a corner not far from the Little Devils Headquarters.
Zhang Dabiao quietly poked his head out and glanced at the bright gate of the Little Japs headquarters illuminated by incandescent lights in the distance. Several Little Japs sentries were dozing off against the wall with their guns in their hands.
The high walls of the Little Devils Headquarters are covered with barbed wire.
Zhang Dabiao shrank back and glanced at the time, "Fifth company commander, take a platoon around to the back door and work fast. It's three o'clock in the morning in fifteen minutes!"
"Yes, battalion commander! The second platoon is following me!" The fifth company commander led the second platoon against the wall across the street from the other side and around to the back door of the Little Devils Headquarters.
Everything went well for Zhang Dabiao on the other side. Huang Tianning and Xie Xiaoming from the third battalion on the other side also led the recruits to the edges of the two highlands.
Wang Kai and the others also came over from the north of the town. Wang Kai left a platoon at the train station, and he took the other two platoons straight to the warehouse.
Because a large amount of explosives are stored in the warehouse, all open flames are prohibited at night, so there is only a street light outside the warehouse.
This also gave Wang Kai an opportunity. He boldly ordered the soldiers in the company to climb over the wall in the dark and quietly touch behind the little Japanese and puppet soldiers on duty, as well as the bedside where they slept. The bayonet was drawn.
Finally, there were the Seventh Company and the Ninth Company of the Third Battalion, who also came in from the north of the town.
Li Yunlong took the Seventh Company in charge of the barracks of the Japs and puppet troops. "Help!" Li Yunlong placed the company's mortars on a flat-roofed house in the distance.
From there, you can cover the entire camp area of the Little Japs. There is a walkie-talkie for communication, and you don’t have to worry about accidental bombing at night.
The Ninth Company is lurking at several important intersections. As soon as the gun fires, no matter where the little devils and puppet patrols are, whether they want to support the headquarters or want to support the barracks, they will be there at these intersections. must pass through.
After each entered their predetermined positions, the battalion company commanders, including Li Yunlong, glanced at the time.
At this time, there were only the last five minutes left before three o'clock in the morning, and everything returned to the calm before the storm.
There was a hot murderous aura hidden in this tranquility. Time passed by second by second, and the little Japanese and the puppet army remained unaware as always. I have already embarked on the countdown of my life.
At this time, in the Little Devils Headquarters, the squadron leader, Lieutenant Colonel Feng Zhengrong, felt inexplicably irritable and woke up from his sleep with a frown on his face.
"It's so hot?! Ocasine?"
Feng Zhengrong turned on the light and glanced at the clock on the wall. The hands would point to three o'clock in a few seconds.
