A fierce battle is going on in Shanyin County, and the fighting has been going on all day and night.
All day and night the Japanese artillery regiments did not show off their power. The artillerymen were used as infantry and fought with the Eighth Route Army with 38 big guns. Some even did not even have 38 big guns and only fired two grenades. They had to rush forward to attack the Eighth Route Army. cause some damages.
Li Yunlong saw that the Japanese artillery regiment was out of shells.
The Japanese were also two regiments, with more than 6,000 people. There was still a huge disparity in strength with Li Yunlong's independent regiment, but Li Yunlong became more courageous.
As long as the Japanese have no artillery or air support, then we are still afraid of them. Just beat them and I will grind you to death.
Li Yunlong urgently sent an order to Zhao Gang to transfer all the remaining three main battalions, county brigade, district squad, guerrillas, and militia to me. If the defense area is empty, we will ignore it. Anyway, there is still a new second regiment attacking the perimeter. My defense area If it is lost, I will settle the score with Kong Jie.
This time I want to chew down Shanyin. Even if my teeth are gone, I will kill the devils in Shanyin.
The key is that the order to attack Shanyin County was issued by the Eighth Route Army headquarters. Even if Li Yunlong had the courage, he would not dare to disobey the order.
Deputy Brigadier Xu arrived at midnight with the Fifth Battalion of the New Second Regiment and the brigade directly under the brigade headquarters. Logically speaking, Deputy Brigadier Xu would directly take over the command of Li Yunlong. However, Deputy Brigadier Xu just called Li Yunlong over to inquire about the situation of the battle. With a wave of his hand, he handed over the fifth battalion of the New Second Regiment and the brigade directly under the brigade to Li Yunlong: "You have the final say on how to fight. I leave these two troops to you. If you lose me, I will compensate your independent regiment." I. I’m going to bed now. Don’t bother me until the sky falls.”
Li Jiapo's independent regiment annihilated the Yamazaki Brigade in the first battle, and Li Yunlong became famous in the first battle. Deputy Brigadier Xu knew that Li Yunlong had many clever ideas in fighting, so he simply let him use it freely.
Bringing these two troops was regarded as adding firewood to him. As for how Li Yunlong wanted to burn the two firewood, Deputy Brigadier Xu simply didn't care.
Li Yunlong received support, and ended up having a lively fight with the Japanese that night, forcing the Japanese Shiqiao Regiment that had rushed out of Shanyin County back to Shanyin County.
Li Yunlong visited the Independent Regiment of the People's Liberation Army and learned a lesson. If you don't fight with the Japanese, I will block the door and fight you when you retreat. When you come out, I will open up and fight. As long as I don't let you use your strength advantage, I will fight. Come as you please.
It doesn't matter if the battle doesn't go well, as long as you can win.
Winning is the most important thing.
Everything else is bullshit.
The battle was fought vigorously, but in the end we were defeated, no matter how spectacular the battle was.
Battles are not fought for people to watch, but for people to watch, they are actors. Actors will not lose their lives, and I only have one life as a soldier.
Li Yunlong learned to be smart, but the little devil would have a hard time.
Several times, the group charged out of the city gate, thinking that they could defeat the Eighth Route Army that besieged Shanyin. However, this group of Eighth Route Army did not respect martial ethics. They couldn't stand it anymore and just turned around and ran away. When you caught up with them, they had another chance. Ambush, and there are more ambushes behind the ambush, alternately covering the retreat of the defeated troops in front. When you are exhausted, they will pounce on you in waves to counterattack, just like the waves, one wave after another, and you will be attacked again. These occupied areas can be eaten back.
The battle line has been stalemate from outside the gate of Pingyin County to three or five miles away, stretching and shortening like maltose.
Although the strength of the Japs in Pingyin County was obviously superior to that of the Eighth Route Army attacking the city, they did not dare to extend the front line and disperse their forces without artillery support. Generally speaking, the Japanese, who had the advantage in personnel and weapons, suffered a huge loss, with a battle loss ratio of almost 2:1. This was a battle loss ratio that the little Japanese could never accept.
Since they invaded China, their battle loss ratio in every battle with the Chinese army has been more than 1:3, and in some battles it can even reach 1:7. But now they actually fought with the Li Yunlong Department of the Eighth Route Army at a ratio of 2:1. If this continues, Sooner or later, their army will be cannibalized by Li Yunlong's troops.
Now the top commander of the Japs in Shanyin County is Shiqiao Yusan of the Shiqiao Regiment. Ishiqiao Yusan knows that the fight cannot continue like this. He has asked Taiyuan Power Generation for air support or airdrops of some artillery shells, but has never received any. After receiving a reply from Taiyuan and another morning of fierce fighting with the Eighth Route Army, he had no choice but to shamelessly call Taiyuan for support again.
This time, I was not afraid of being laughed at by the North China Army. The main reason was that the Eighth Route Army's fighting style was too shameless. The Sato Artillery Regiment was hit hard again. He would not be able to fight this battle without artillery support.
As a result, Yusan Ishibashi waited for a long time and still did not receive a reply from Taiyuan. According to his understanding, he thought that Commander Yoshio Shinozuka was expressing dissatisfaction to him in this way.
Speaking of which, there are two and a half regiments in Shanyin, and they are besieged by a regiment of the Eighth Route Army with extremely poor equipment. It is embarrassing that they still need to ask for support.
It seems that I can only rely on myself.
Ishibashi Yuzo began to assemble his troops, preparing to defeat this nasty Eighth Route Army unit in one fell swoop.
At this time, the other three main battalions and the county brigade and district squad guerrillas transferred by Li Yunlong from various departments in the defense area also arrived one after another. Li Yunlong was also ready to start a decisive battle with the Japanese troops stationed in Shanin.
After grinding for nearly two days and one night, Li Yunlong wanted to continue grinding with the Japanese like this, but his supplies did not allow it.
If you keep sharpening it, you will have no choice but to fight with the Japanese with bayonets when they charge forward again.
Li Yunlong was discussing with Deputy Brigadier Xu how to fight the next battle at the temporary headquarters. At this moment, a soldier ran in and reported: "Report, there is a person who claims to be Qin Fen, deputy commander of the Independent Regiment of the People's Liberation Army, asking to see him. "
"Qin Fen?" Li Yunlong's eyes lit up. He looked at Deputy Brigadier Xu and said, "This Qin Fen is Xie Baoqing's man. I have seen him before."
Deputy Brigadier Xu nodded, and Li Yunlong ordered to the soldier: "Invite him in, forget it, I'll go and greet him personally. He must have good things when he comes here at this time, I can't neglect the guest."
When he walked out of the house, Li Yunlong saw Qin Fen with a solemn military appearance at the entrance of the courtyard. He laughed and walked out quickly. He arrived before he could speak loudly: "Isn't this Brother Qin? I miss you so much after not seeing you for a few days. Why are you running away?" Here we come, come in quickly, come in quickly, I’ll treat you to the largest restaurant in Shanyin County for a couple of drinks tonight.”
Qin Fen smiled, saluted Li Yunlong, shook hands and said with a smile: "It seems that Captain Li has everything in mind, and he doesn't need brothers to add icing on the cake."
Li Yunlong laughed and shook Qin Fen's hand vigorously: "Brother Qin, you are really my brother. Tell me what good gift you brought me. Did you make your cannon thief Platoon Leader Zhang Did you bring it?"
Qin Fen chuckled: "Not only that, I brought an armored infantry battalion, an infantry battalion, an artillery company, and..."
Before Qin Fen finished speaking, Li Yunlong jumped up excitedly: "What? You brought all the tanks? Hahahaha, Brigadier Xu, come out quickly. Xie Baoqing has sent all his tank battalions to support us."
In the absence of Brigadier Chen, the subordinates were accustomed to omitting the sub-character like the superior deputy, so that it sounded smoother and the superiors liked to hear it.
