Southeast Shanxi.
Headquarters.
The boss, chief of staff, division commander and others are waiting for news about the new regiment.
When Li Yunlong launched such a large campaign, he naturally had to ask for instructions from the headquarters. Only after obtaining the consent of the headquarters could he launch combat operations.
otherwise.
Even if Li Yunlong has great military exploits, he will be punished by the headquarters for arbitrarily mobilizing so many troops and leaving the base area to launch larger combat operations.
In the past, the New Regiment was affiliated to the 386th Brigade and was covered by the brigade commander, so Li Yunlong could do some side work.
Although the boss now gives Li Yunlong more self-indulgence, the boss's temper is much greater than that of the brigade leader, and Li Yunlong does not dare to mess around.
Commander Liu looked at his watch and said, "Counting the time, the new regiment should have already started fighting the Japanese army by this time."
"Absolutely." The chief of staff nodded, with a worried tone, "However, I am a little worried about the New Regiment. The Japanese army is a bit stronger this time. Can the New Regiment be able to defeat them?"
The Japanese army prepared five regiments in the Xinzhou Basin, totaling a detachment of more than 10,000 people.
The combat effectiveness of these five regiments in the plain terrain was extremely amazing, and the chief of staff was also a little worried.
However, the boss very much supported Li Yunlong's opinion. He wanted to use two tank battalions to draw out the Japanese planes, and then use Boss Chen's air support to blow up the Japanese planes.
So that most of the people in the Northwestern Shanxi Military Region can successfully cross the Yellow River.
"Nothing to worry about."
The boss was very calm, his eyes calm: "In this battle, Li Yunlong had the information provided by Boss Chen, and after careful calculation and careful preparation, he assembled enough troops, and most importantly, Li Yunlong had …There are two tank battalions!”
The boss snorted and added: "Coupled with Boss Chen's air support, with this configuration, if Li Yunlong can't defeat the Lilin detachment, he might as well go home and comfort his children."
After hearing the boss's words, the worried expressions on the faces of the division commander and chief of staff diminished.
"Report!"
A headquarters telegraph soldier held the telegram in his hand, walked quickly into the regiment headquarters, and gave a military salute: "The new regiment needs an urgent telegram!"
The chief of staff quickly took the telegram and read it. The boss and division commander looked closely at the chief of staff.
After quickly reading the telegram, the chief of staff said with a somewhat happy tone: "Boss and division commander, Li Yunlong reported that the 2 tank battalions and 2 infantry battalions of the new regiment defeated the Japanese 39th Regiment in less than half an hour. Team."

"oh?"
The boss and the teacher looked at each other and saw a touch of surprise and surprise in each other's eyes.
Regarding the information about the 39th Regiment, the headquarters has already obtained it. This Regiment belongs to the 8th Brigade of the 10th Division and has extremely strong combat effectiveness.
Back in 1937, a brigade of the 5th Division was invincible in Shanxi Province, and the 39th Regiment was not far behind.
And the new regiment was still on the offensive side, and it actually defeated an elite regiment of a Class A division in less than half an hour?
In the past, this was absolutely a fantasy.
"It's definitely the work of the two tank battalions!"
The boss' tone was full of surprise, and he analyzed: "Two tank battalions of our Eighth Route Army suddenly appeared on the battlefield. The Japs were not even prepared at all. Moreover, the Japs' tank regiment was far away, and reinforcements could not come for a while. As long as a new regiment The infantry entered the position of the 39th Regiment, and it was not difficult to defeat the 39th Regiment, but what surprised me was that the new regiment defeated the 39th Regiment so quickly!"
After finishing speaking, the boss's eyes changed from surprise to expectation.
After the new regiment completes this anti-mopping operation, Li Yunlong will have to hand over a tank battalion.
Although the 386th Brigade has a tank company, they are all little Japanese tanks. They have combat capabilities, but they are not very strong.
The boss and chief of staff have long read Li Yunlong's report on the tank battalion. The two tanks are light tanks and medium tanks, which have reached the levels of medium tanks and heavy tanks on the Asian battlefield.
Thinking of this, the boss looked at the tank battalion with increasing expectations.
Commander Liu also thought of this, and at the same time he was keenly aware of the change in the boss's eyes. He pushed up his glasses and said: "Boss, when Li Yunlong hands over a tank battalion to the headquarters, will you allocate some tanks to me? I don't want more." , just one tank company will do."
"There is no door." But the boss waved his hands alertly: "Don't even think about trying to attack my tank. I want to create a tank camp."
After a pause, the boss softened his expression and said, "Don't worry, buddy. When Li Yunlong hands over the next batch of tanks, you will definitely be included."
The division commander had no choice but to smile and nod, but then he thought about it. When Boss Chen's assistance began, he had robbed Li Yunlong for a mountain artillery battalion.
And now the 129th Division is equipped with more mountain artillery than one mountain artillery division.
Looking at it this way, maybe the 129th Division will be equipped with a tank division in the future?
Thinking of this, the teacher's eyes and expression became expectant again.
The chief of staff, however, was not very interested in tanks. He only cared about whether the new regiment could win the battle: "The most critical point of this battle is whether Boss Chen's plane can arrive in time and shoot down the Japanese plane." .”
The boss also nodded and said: "If the Japanese plane arrives first and blows up Li Yunlong's two tank battalions, the consequences will be disastrous."
…
New Jersey battlefield.
The Japanese 39th Regiment has been defeated and the position has been occupied by the new regiment.
Most of the elite regiment of the powerful Class A Division suffered casualties, and the battlefield was covered with corpses of Japanese soldiers.
The little Japanese's defensive trenches were dug narrow and shallow. Two tank battalions crossed the trenches and continued the attack with a new regiment of infantry.
Most of the escaping Japanese soldiers of the 39th Regiment were shot dead by tank machine guns.
The tank tracks ran over the corpses of the Japanese, leaving only puddles of flesh.
Sun Desheng saw through the observation mirror that a Japanese Type 97 medium tank appeared 300 meters away.
"Ha ha,***!"
"Finally here, waiting for you!"
Seeing the appearance of the Japanese tank, Sun Desheng suddenly became happy. As long as one Japanese tank appeared, it meant that the Japanese tank regiment was coming.
"Attention all tanks, 300 meters ahead, the Japanese tank regiment is coming!"
"Fix them hard!"
Sun Desheng picked up the walkie-talkie and called into the microphone.
"Don't fight with me, I've got these devils and tanks all rounded up!"
"Fuck you, whoever grabs it belongs to you!"
"If you have a quick hand, you will have nothing!"
"..."
As soon as Sun Desheng finished speaking, a response came from the headset.
The next second.
"boom!"
Sun Desheng heard a loud explosion and quickly looked through the observation glass toward the place where the explosion occurred. He saw a Japanese Type 97 tank bursting into flames.
A moment later, a commander's loud laughter sounded in the headset: "Comrades, I'm sorry, I took the first-blood brother of this Japanese tank first!"
"Fuck, Lao Zhang, you move so fast!"
"You're so lucky, aren't you?"
Immediately, another car captain said on the intercom channel.
"Bang!"
The Japanese tank on the opposite side opened fire. Since Sun Desheng's tank was farther forward, it became the priority target of the Japanese tank.
Sun Desheng didn't know which part of the tank was hit. It made a harsh metal impact and then bounced away.
The quality of the Japanese tank soldiers is indeed relatively good, and the 47mm main gun of the Type 97 tank is also faster.
However... the armor-piercing ability of the 47mm tank gun is still not enough to penetrate the armor of the Panther tank, and even the shells fired by the Japanese tank gun are directly bounced away.
Feeling the tank shake, Sun Desheng immediately cheered up and quickly looked for the target through the sight glass.
This time all the tanks of the new regiment participated in the battle, with the Leopard tanks in the front and the Xiafei tanks in the rear. They were about the same number of tanks as a Japanese tank regiment.
If you move too slowly, you won't even be able to drink the soup.
Soon, Sun Desheng found a Japanese tank more than 200 meters away.
"At 11 o'clock, 230 meters away, there is a Type 97 tank, kill it!"
Under Sun Desheng's order, gunner Li Fushan quickly turned the muzzle and quickly aimed at a Japanese Type 97 tank about 230 meters away at the 11 o'clock direction, and then stepped on the firing pedal.
The more than 40-ton tank shook, and the 75mm armor-piercing bullet instantly rushed out of the gun barrel, streaking through the air and hitting the Japanese Type 97 tank!
With a loud explosion, armor-piercing shells penetrated from the turret, and the Japanese Type 97 tank instantly turned into a ball of fire. The fireball suddenly rose into the sky, and the Japanese tank soldiers inside returned to Japan in an instant.
At the same time, another shell landed three meters away from the Japanese Type 97 tank.
Another Leopard tank also targeted the Japanese tank, but its movement was a beat slower than that of Sun Desheng's tank, and its shells also missed.
But Sun Desheng couldn't bear to scold the gunner of the tank.
He continued to look for prey through the sight of the sight glass, and soon he spotted a Japanese Type 95 light tank at 1 o'clock.
The Japanese light tank was slowly moving backwards, as if it sensed something was wrong and was preparing to escape.
Sun Desheng immediately informed the location and issued the order to fire.
"boom!"
As the tank shook again, the armor-piercing bullet flew out instantly. With a loud bang, the Japanese Type 95 tank burst into flames amidst the explosion.
Even the Type 97 tank couldn't stop a blow from the Leopard tank's main gun, let alone the Type 95 light tank.
Li Fushan was the best gunner of the two tank battalions. He destroyed two Japanese tanks with only two armor-piercing rounds.
The accuracy of the tank gunners of the other new regiments was a little worse, but not much worse. After all, they had trained for three full months, during which they also fired a lot of artillery shells.
The Japanese's Type 97 medium tank and Type 95 light tank were continuously penetrated by armor-piercing projectiles and ignited into flames.
idiot! When the remaining Japanese tank soldiers saw this, they suddenly felt extremely desperate.
The tanks equipped by the Eighth Route Army opposite were obviously not in the same order of magnitude as their tanks. The 47mm and 37mm main guns could not penetrate the armor of the Eighth Route Army tanks at all.
Don’t those idiots in the 39th Regiment know that this is a heavy tank?
What a slap in the face!
The remaining Japanese tank commander quickly ordered the driver to escape.
But how could the new tank battalion allow the Japanese tanks to escape?
Sun Desheng immediately ordered the tanks to pursue them, and the driver immediately increased their power to catch up. The Leopard tanks fired their main guns and machine guns while pursuing.
