Chapter 2 Chu Yunfei's Decision
Japanese Army Sakata Regiment Headquarters.
The commander of the regiment, Sakata Nobutsu, was holding a telescope and observing the battle situation in front of him. At this time, a Japanese lieutenant colonel hurried in with a telegram and said with a frown, "Your Excellency, the headquarters orders our regiment to occupy the main peak of Cangyunling before 12 noon and annihilate all the enemy defenders without letting any of them escape!"
"Got it!" Nobutsu Sakata nodded expressionlessly to show that he understood.
The Japanese lieutenant colonel put away the telegram, followed Sakata Nobutsu's gaze for a while, and said: "The 5th Squadron's attack has just been blocked. In order to avoid too many casualties in the Imperial Army, I suggest that the Imperial Army form a cannon fodder unit to attract fire from the front!"
"Yoshi!" Sakata Nobutsu nodded approvingly and said, "I'll leave this matter to you!"
"Hi!" The Japanese lieutenant colonel nodded vigorously, then waved his hand to call a bespectacled translator wearing a crooked hat, and ordered him to convey the military order.
…
New regiment position.
Li Yunlong raised his binoculars to observe the enemy's situation, then turned his head and shouted, "First Battalion Commander!"
"have!"
Battalion commander Zhang Dabiao responded and immediately trotted over.
"Have the division headquarters and field hospital been transferred successfully?"
"Report to the leader, the transfer has been successful!"
Li Yunlong bared his teeth and asked again: "Zhang Dabiao, how many people do we have left?"
Zhang Dabiao said: "The brothers have been dispersed, and there are probably less than 300 people left."
Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes, revealing a wolf-like fierce look, and said in a cold voice: "Pass on my order, everyone gather and prepare to attack!"
"But the order from our superiors is for us to break out from the direction of Yujialing!"
"Moreover, the Sakata Regiment is the trump card of the Japanese 4th Infantry Brigade, the elite troops under Shinozuka Yoshio, and they once defeated two divisions of the Central Army from the front.
We only have a few brothers left..."
Zhang Dabiao's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
The Sakata Regiment had more than 3,800 troops, equipped with countless mortars, grenade launchers, Type 99 light machine guns, and Type 92 heavy machine guns.
The entire 129th Division was under pressure from a regiment, and now they had to take the initiative to launch an attack with less than 300 people left...
Zhang Dabiao no longer dared to think about what the outcome would be.
"What the hell are the elites? I'm fighting the elites!"
After a pause, Li Yunlong continued, "Let me tell you, that old devil Sakata is waiting for me to retreat!
If we retreat, we will fall into this old devil's trap. He will definitely press on and will never give us a chance to retreat!"
"When two enemies meet in a narrow road, the brave prevails. The only way to survive now is to break through from the front and kill the old devil by surprise!"
Then, Li Yunlong pointed to a faintly visible antenna on the opposite hill and said, "Look at that place!"
"That's...?" Zhang Dabiao was stunned: "Sakata's headquarters?"
"That's right!" Li Yunlong nodded heavily: "Go call Zhuzi over to me, and find a way to fuck him!"
"yes!"
Zhang Dabiao nodded heavily and then ran away quickly.
…
The rooftop of the 358th Regiment Headquarters.
Chu Yunfei was holding a telescope, observing the battle situation in the direction of Cangyun Ridge with a serious expression.
At this moment, Chief of Staff Fang Ligong suddenly ran up the stairs in a hurry: "Commander, Commander!"
"Brother Fang, why are you so flustered?"
Chu Yunfei put down the telescope, turned his head and looked at Fang Ligong with some confusion.
Fang Ligong is a seriously underestimated military commander. He is cautious, humble, and never shows his emotions.
He has a very strong ability to control the battlefield and his analysis of the battlefield situation is extremely accurate.
Fang Ligong panted and said, "Commander! The Eighth Route Army has launched a counterattack!"
Chu Yunfei was shocked and asked, "What? Are you talking about the group of Eighth Route Army soldiers on Cangyun Ridge?"
"Yes, Commander!"
"It seems to be the new regiment under the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division. Its commander is Li Yunlong!"
"According to the report from the front-line reconnaissance post, the Eighth Route Army has already broken through the first encirclement of the Japanese!"
"Li Yunlong? It's him!"
When Chu Yunfei heard that it was Li Yunlong, he immediately looked enlightened.
He and Li Yunlong are old acquaintances. Back then, when Li Yunlong did not have the customs clearance documents, he wanted to force a crossing of the Yellow River.
Chu Yunfei, who was guarding this place, almost started a fight with him.
At this point, the two of them can be said to have become acquainted with each other.
"Order the artillery battalion to assemble urgently! Provide some fire support to the friendly forces, and then fire at the enemy's artillery positions!"
Fang Ligong said with an unpleasant expression: "But... the Second War Zone Headquarters has repeatedly issued clear restrictions. Without orders from higher-ups, no soldier may be mobilized to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army in combat!
Those who violate the order will be severely punished! "
Chu Yunfei said: "If this Eighth Route Army is destroyed, it will also be the national defense strength of our party and country that will be lost!"
Fang Ligong said: "Although the Eighth Route Army is nominally a friendly force, it is also a major concern for the Chairman. When the war of resistance is over..."
Chu Yunfei raised his hand to interrupt, "That's for later! Now destroy the enemy's artillery positions first!
If your superiors blame you, just say that it was the Japanese who started it first.
We are not assisting the Eighth Route Army, we are just launching a counterattack!"
"yes!"
Seeing that Chu Yunfei had made up his mind, Fang Ligong had no choice but to nod and accept the order, then hurried downstairs.
…
The other side.
Since Yang Lin and his group all changed into the uniforms of the Imperial Army, they easily approached Sakata's headquarters.
A Japanese scout rushed into the command center.
"Report to the commander! The Imperial Army has already launched an attack after receiving the order!"
"What? When did the Imperial Army's execution become so strong?"
Sakata Nobutsu looked at the Japanese Chief of Staff next to him with doubt: "Ura Tomo-kun, in the past, these Imperial Army commanders were lazy and ran faster than rabbits when the gunfire sounded.
But today, why are these cowardly guys so active? "
The Japanese lieutenant colonel next to him adjusted his glasses, thought for a moment and said, "Sir, although these Chinese are afraid of death, they are not stupid. Maybe they saw that the Imperial Army was about to win, so they wanted to take the opportunity to show off in order to get some rewards from the Imperial Army!"
"Yoshi! It should be like this!"
Sakata Nobutsu nodded and said with a cunning smile: "No matter what, the courage of the Imperial Army is indeed commendable. After the battle is over, there must be a huge reward!"
Nobutsu Sakata was not doing this out of kindness, but to win over the hearts of the people and make these Imperial Army soldiers work harder for him next time.
"Ha Yi! The captain is wise!!!"
The Japanese officers in the command center all bowed their heads and admired Sakata Nobutsu's way of managing people.
A moment later, a burst of fierce gunfire was heard outside Sakata's command center.
"Da-da-da, da-da-da!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!—"
The rebels opened fire at full force, and bullets rained down on the Japanese guards.
"Brothers, charge! Take down the command center of that old devil Sakata!"
Yang Lin took the lead and led the team to charge and attack fiercely. Wherever they passed, they killed and fell the Japanese in large numbers.
Of course, it’s not because of how strong their fighting power is, but because these Japanese devils never dreamed that these Imperial Army would suddenly turn against them.
This is why he was killed unexpectedly.
"Ding! System prompt, congratulations to the host for killing 1 enemy soldier, merit value +1, experience value +1."
"Ding! System prompt, congratulations to the host for killing an enemy sergeant, merit value +10, experience value +10."
"Ding! System prompt..."
"Baga! What's with the gunshots outside?"
Inside the headquarters, just as Sakata Nobutsu finished speaking, a Japanese second lieutenant rushed in in a hurry: "Captain, something terrible has happened! Those damned Imperial Chinese Army have all rebelled, and they are charging towards the headquarters!"
