Chapter 477: Why did the Japanese pick on Li Yunlong when there were so many people to pick on? Wasn
Hundreds of fighter planes from the air force battalion that arrived ahead of time hid in the clouds. When the clock pointed to seven o'clock, Lin Zhenhua immediately gave the order to attack. Hundreds of fighter planes swooped down from the sky and launched a fierce aerial fire sweep at the Zhangzhuang stronghold. They also dropped hundreds of bombs. The rumbling sounds of explosions rang out one after another, and the entire Zhangzhuang stronghold was covered in smoke and dust from the explosions.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Japanese and the puppet troops were blocked from view, the steel plates were quickly laid in a sedan. Shen Quan, with two mechanized infantry battalions, quickly passed through the trench and engaged in a firefight with the puppet troops in the outer positions. Using the light and heavy machine guns and machine guns mounted on the three-wheeled motorcycles, they fiercely suppressed the puppet army's positions with firepower, making the puppet army unable to raise their heads.
The head of the 211th Regiment of the puppet army, Wang Damazi, had a face full of fear. He really didn't expect that the Zhangzhuang stronghold would encounter such a fierce attack. He was so frightened that he couldn't speak. The deputy head of the regiment, Xu Changde, looked at him with contempt. However, the situation was stronger than the people. If he, the head of the regiment, hadn't had Wang Damazi to support him, he really wouldn't have been able to finish his work.
"Brother, this is definitely the main force of the independent regiment. Our 211th Regiment is no match for Li Yunlong. I think it would be safer for you to evacuate with the brothers as soon as possible, otherwise we will have to lose everything we have. The reason why you can be the leader of the 211th Regiment is because the brothers under you are of the same mind as you. If you ask them to die, they will probably have second thoughts."
"We can no longer defend the Zhangzhuang stronghold. What we need to do is to run away quickly. It will be too late if we delay any longer. As for the Japanese devils, there is no need to care about them. They are more cunning than monkeys when they are covered with fur. Needless to say, these fake Japanese devils bully us a lot on weekdays. Now it has come to this point. We should think more about ourselves."
"Brothers have always followed your lead. Even if we can't stay here, we can still go to the mountains and become the king of the mountain. If we lose our lives here, there will be no hope. Brother, listen to my advice. As long as there is green mountains, there will be no fear of running out of firewood."
Wang Damazi came back to his senses. He bent over and lay on the ground, and replied in a worried tone: "Xiao Dezi, it's not that I don't want to retreat, but it's really difficult to retreat. There are Japanese behind us. The Japanese are very wary of us and have blocked our retreat. Even if I lead the brothers to retreat now, there is nowhere to run. I will only run into the Japanese's guns."
"As long as you can find a way out for the brothers, I will definitely not be stingy with rewards. What you said is absolutely right. We can still survive without the devils. At worst, we can go into the mountains and become bandits. Maybe then we can live a more carefree life."
"But all of this has a prerequisite, that is, we have to escape from the Zhangzhuang stronghold. With such fierce firepower right now, we dare not escape even if we want to. The brothers are suppressed by the firepower and can't raise their heads. If they dare to stand up straight, their heads will be moved."
"The damned Japanese devils are just sitting around doing nothing, so they picked on Li Yunlong when they could pick on anyone else. Li Yunlong is not someone you can easily pick on. The Japanese devils' bounty on his head has already reached 100,000 dollars. If it was so easy to take Li Yunlong's head, the outlaws would have taken it away long ago. How could it still be hanging in Taiyuan City? There are so many people from all walks of life these days, and there are many outlaws who are loyal to whoever feeds them. These damned guys don't dare to pick on Li Yunlong, which shows how powerful Li Yunlong is!"
"Xie Baoqing had provoked Li Yunlong once before, and even his lair was robbed by Li Yunlong. If he hadn't hooked up with the Japanese later and settled down in the Yushuling area, he would have probably become a wandering ghost long ago!"
Xu Changde scratched his head, but he had no good idea. Did he really have to surrender to Li Yunlong? But if he did that, the Japanese would not let them go. For a moment, he was really caught in a dilemma.
Seeing that Xu Changde had no ideas either, Wang Damazi's favorable impression of him greatly decreased. He had been hoping that this kid would give him some advice, but who the hell would have thought that this kid was only good at talking. When it came to giving him advice, this kid became mute.
Wang Damazi suppressed his anger and ordered in a gloomy tone: "Let the brothers gather on the right wing position and let me take over the left wing position. Don't let me take the main position in the front. Let the devils fight Li Yunlong and we will just watch the show from the side. If we find an opportunity, I will lead the brothers to withdraw quickly. If we can't find an opportunity, we will surrender to Li Yunlong and save our lives first."
Seeing Wang Damazi's ugly face, Xu Changde dared not say anything more. He lay on the ground like a turtle and quickly passed the order. This posture looked indecent, but it could really save his life. The bullets and shells flew over his head, frightening Xu Changde so much that his legs trembled. It took him three minutes to pass the order down.
The puppet army that received the order also learned to crawl and quickly evacuated the left wing position and the main position. Wei Heshang seized the opportunity and quickly attacked the stronghold. Shen Quan, who followed closely, rushed in with two mechanized infantry battalions. Sanwazi, who led the air defense battalion, rushed over at this time and used anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns to launch a fierce fire attack on the second line of defense held by the devils. The Fat Baby Ground Attack Aircraft Brigade also joined the battle, lowering the flight altitude to 500 meters to provide air fire cover for the attacking infantry.
"Your Excellency, our Gujing Battalion has launched a counterattack against the enemy's artillery fire, but the enemy has used a large number of heavy artillery to completely suppress our artillery fire. The enemy's aviation is also a great threat to our artillery units. I have lost more than half of my artillery. I request that Your Excellency send someone to help me immediately..."
Before Ichiro Furui could finish his words, he was interrupted by the angry Matsui Okayama. The Matsuno Battalion had already engaged in a battle with Shen Quan, and the main front position was already in danger. Matsui Okayama was deploying reserve troops to reinforce in the hope of stabilizing the situation.
"Gu Jingjun, lead all your men to launch a counterattack immediately. Don't worry about the loss of artillery. What we need to do now is to find ways to defend the Zhangzhuang stronghold. Once the Zhangzhuang stronghold is breached by the enemy, Li Yunlong will be able to directly attack our hinterland, and our blockade of him will completely fail."
"That group of cowardly security guards actually gave up their positions on their own initiative. Otherwise, the first line of defense would not have been breached so quickly. Fortunately, the trenches we dug earlier were relatively long, preventing the enemy's armored forces from passing through. Otherwise, our Zhangzhuang stronghold would not have been able to withstand the impact of the enemy's armored forces."
Just when Song Jinggangshan was mobilizing troops to retake the lost position, Lin Zhenhua rushed to the front line and arranged for more than a dozen soldiers to lift the bucket to the front of the tank and slowly hang it on the reserved interface. After hanging it tightly, the two Bull tanks used the bucket in front to continuously push the earth and fill the trench in front bit by bit. It took a full 15 minutes, and the two tanks finally cleared out a simple passable road.
The bridge-laying vehicle waiting behind it quickly laid the steel plates on top, and two simple bridges were built. The tanks and armored vehicles used the two simple bridges to quickly pass through, and under the shocked gaze of Song Jinggangshan, they attacked the Zhangzhuang stronghold.
Hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles fired continuously at the fortifications defended by the Japanese. Shen Quan immediately arranged his soldiers to clear the road and started the infantry-tank coordinated tactics. The Fat Baby ground attack aircraft brigade, which was providing fire support in the air, took the initiative to increase its flight altitude and clear the battlefield.
The artillery battalion stopped the bombardment under the order of Wang Chengzhu, and Zhang Dabiao's armored forces would take the lead next. A large-scale armored assault officially began, with nearly 200 tanks and 400 armored vehicles starting to divide and surround the Japanese and puppet troops in the Zhangzhuang stronghold. Their fierce firepower and mobility made the Japanese and puppet troops unable to raise their heads. After just 15 minutes, the Japanese and puppet troops began to collapse.
"Haha, the armored forces won a decisive victory in just 15 minutes. The damn devils and puppet troops are no match for us. We only defeated the devils before, but this time we defeated them so badly that they even killed each other in order to escape the battlefield first. I have fought for so many years, but I have never felt so happy as today."
"Under normal circumstances, if we wanted to capture such a large stronghold, we would have to send out a brigade of troops and fight for several days. However, only 36 minutes have passed since the start of the battle. We have won the victory in such a short time. This is completely beyond my expectations."
"Immediately give orders to Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan to chase after the Japanese and puppet troops. We must annihilate all the Japanese and puppet troops in Zhangzhuang. We must not let these bastards escape and harm the people. We must be brave enough to pursue the enemy, not just seek fame by imitating the tyrants. This sentence that college students often say comes in handy this time."
"Brothers, beat them hard. As long as the damn puppet troops and the devils don't surrender, kill them all. Don't show mercy to these damn things. They have never been merciful when it comes to harming the people."
Under Li Yunlong's command, Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan cooperated with each other to pursue the fleeing Japanese and puppet troops. Taking advantage of mechanized marching, they quickly encircled the Japanese and puppet troops. Some Japanese who tried to resist were beaten into sieves. Thousands of puppet troops and more than 300 fake Japanese surrendered directly, and more than 1000 Japanese and puppet troops were still resisting. It took a full hour and a half to complete the operation to clear out the remaining enemies.
