On the Japanese heavy machine gun squad's position, there were dead bodies everywhere, and the faces of the little Japanese were full of pain.
Li Yunlong let out a fierce breath, but the little devil suppressed him and beat him away.
"Commander of the third battalion, hurry up, continue the attack, don't let the little Japanese commander escape!" Li Yunlong hurriedly urged the soldiers of the third battalion without stopping too much.
The battlefield at the foot of the mountain was in chaos.
According to the order, the Japanese heavy machine gun squadron withdrew first, followed by the infantry squadron, and the puppet troops were used as cannon fodder in the rear.
However, the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the New Regiment took the opportunity to launch a counterattack. The more than a thousand puppet troops who were left behind saw all the Japs withdrawing and collapsed in one attack. Instead, they broke up the retreating formation of the Japanese infantry squadron.
Zhang Dabiao made a decisive decision and continued to drive the puppet troops towards the Japanese army.
Gunfire continued, and the two puppet soldiers caught in the middle were attacked.
The soldiers of the new regiment beat the dog in the water hard, and the little Japanese on the other side showed no mercy at all. They turned around and kept firing with light machine guns, trying to drive back the scattered puppet troops.
The furious puppet soldiers started to attack the little Japanese who were intercepting them.
"Damn it, the puppet army is driven into panic. Dog bites dog. It's a hairy mouth. Just beat it like this. Let the puppet army consume the little devil's energy first!" Zhang Dabiao shouted.
At this time, gunfire rang out from behind the retreating Japanese army, and soldiers from the first and third battalions of the 28th Regiment came over from behind to kill them.
Some of the puppet troops who had crossed over from the Jaap earlier were driven back by the soldiers of the 28th Regiment as if they had received a blow in the head.
"First battalion commander, you and some soldiers brought me the artillery position that the little devils arranged on the mountainside. Remember, don't blow up the four Type 92 infantry cannons!" Ding Wei had been keeping an eye on it early in the morning.
The Japanese artillery position was in chaos. How could Ding Wei let go of such a good opportunity?
The first battalion commander of the 28th Regiment received the order and immediately rushed towards the mountainside with a hundred soldiers.
"Comrades, kill!"
When Zhang Dabiao saw the brothers from the 28th Regiment arriving, he pulled out the sword from behind and threw his hat to the ground.
Zhang Dabiao came with his eyes specifically on the little Japs, like a god of murder. Wherever he passed, the little Japs jumped on their backs, and the puppet troops couldn't avoid him.
In the blink of an eye, he chopped down three little Japs. Under his leadership, the morale of the new group of soldiers was greatly shaken, and both sides were strangled together in an instant.
Under the pincer attack between the main forces of the New 1st Regiment and the 28th Regiment, a squadron of Japanese troops was quickly wiped out, and more than 700 puppet troops surrendered.
The overall battle at the foot of the mountain was over. Zhang Dabiao was covering his shoulder while a health worker was bandaging it.
Ding Wei hurried over and said, "Why did you lose the prize?"
"What a damn unlucky thing. I was injured on the shoulder by a puppet soldier!" Zhang Dabiao cursed through gritted teeth.
"Where's Li Yunlong?" Ding Wei looked around at the foot of the mountain and didn't see Li Yunlong, and he felt bad.
"Our regiment leader is still on the mountain now. The gunfire has stopped now, and the battle should be over!" Zhang Dabiao said, pointing to the top of the mountain where the Japanese army headquarters was located.
Ding Wei secretly thought something bad. He had arranged for his first battalion commander to go there early in the morning. Unexpectedly, Li Yunlong personally led the new regiment.
According to Ding Wei's understanding of Li Yunlong, a battalion commander like himself would probably not be able to please him.
"Guard Company, follow me!" Ding Wei slapped his forehead and shouted loudly.
Unexpectedly, Li Yunlong's voice came at this time, and he did not hide his proud laughter: "Haha, Old Ding, the battle is over, where are you going?"
Ding Wei took a closer look and saw that Li Yunlong led his team down the mountain in a mighty manner. The accompanying team carried many captured heavy machine guns and even four Type 92 infantry cannons that he had been thinking about for a long time.
.
The commander of his first battalion followed the new regiment like a frustrated little daughter-in-law.
The 28th Regiment suffered a loss because it waited for two Japanese infantry squadrons to pursue it before occupying the puppet fortifications and launching the attack.
Li Yunlong's new regiment, on the other hand, grabbed the enemy as soon as the Japanese army retreated. In terms of time, it was earlier than Ding Wei's 8th regiment.
Li Yunlong attacked the Japanese headquarters fiercely, firing 22 rounds of poison gas bombs alone, killing the Japanese headquarters and the two Japanese heavy machine gun squads deployed there in one fell swoop.
When going down the mountain, he used lightning speed to kill the Japanese infantry artillery squadron.
Ding Wei felt a surge of anger going straight to his head, and shouted angrily: "Li Yunlong!"
"What are you doing? My commander Ding, doesn't he just have some equipment? The soldiers are all watching!" Li Yunlong said with a grin, pulling Ding Wei aside.
"What are you looking at? Clean the battlefield quickly, it's almost dawn!"
Li Yunlong pulled Ding Wei and sat down on a big rock at the foot of the mountain, and then said: "Old Ding, don't worry, this battle was really enjoyable, thanks to your 28th regiment, Old Ding, who was behind to contain it.
Keep the little devil’s troops in check!”
"As expected of an old comrade from the same class, a good brother!"
"Old Li, I accept your favor and will serve you with wine and meat when you come back!"
"You just say that I want to find a Japanese girl for you, and we will do it for you without saying anything!"
Li Yunlong's rainbow farts kept popping out of his mouth as if they were free, but he kept silent about the seized weapons and equipment.
Ding Wei sneered. He was not in a hurry now and did not interrupt Li Yunlong's performance.
When Li Yunlong saw that Ding Wei didn't answer, he said directly: "We are brothers and we do business together. Logically speaking, we should split it half and half, but as the saying goes, brothers will settle accounts."
"Old Ding, this time your 28th regiment is just playing the drums. It's our new regiment that is standing up to the Japs' artillery fire!"
"Haha, Li Yunlong, you really belong to Pixiu. You can only go in and out. Let me tell you clearly. The Fourth Regiment of the Independent Detachment has also come to support you. It's not far away from Xidian Mountain!"
"How brave are you guys to dare to take advantage of the independent detachment, and are you not afraid that Zhou Weihan will deal with you?" Ding Wei sneered.
The smile on Li Yunlong's face gradually disappeared: "What, the Fourth Regiment of the Independent Detachment is here too?"
Ding Wei nodded in response.
Normally, Li Yunlong would not be afraid of Zhou Weihan. After all, the new regiment was organized in the 386th Brigade and Zhou Weihan had no control over it.
But now the new regiment is temporarily under the command of Zhou Weihan. If he is really annoyed, Zhou Weihan will use the new regiment as a reserve force.
At that time, watching other groups eating meat in front, my new group can't even drink the soup.
Li Yunlong shook his head and said in his heart, we Lao Li can't suffer this loss.
"Old Ding, how do you think the spoils should be divided appropriately?" Li Yunlong asked with a shy face.
"Listen to me?" Ding Wei asked with a smile on his face.
"Listen to you!"
"I heard that the liaison officer assigned to the Fourth Regiment came back to report that this time the Fourth Regiment attacked Guancun Airport in Changzhi and suffered a lot of casualties. Although the main force of the Japanese army in Changzhi was attracted by us, the weapons and equipment at Changzhi Airport are not bad!"
"A two-hundred-person airport security force, equipped with eight anti-aircraft machine guns, was forced out by four regiments with human lives, and more than four hundred soldiers were injured or killed before blowing up the plane at the airport!" Ding Wei said sadly.
"This time, the Fourth Regiment received the order and went non-stop from Changzhi to Licheng to provide support. The two of us must recognize this situation!"
After hearing this, Li Yunlong also straightened up his face, and then said: "I know, the four groups will definitely not suffer this time!"
"Every time we fight together with Zhou Weihan, this guy has never let my new regiment suffer, and I won't be in trouble this time either!" Li Yunlong's eyes widened and his nose twitched.
"That's right, Lao Li, think about it, your new regiment has expanded to 2,600 people. The weapons have been seized this time. Our 28th regiment is not afraid. After all, we are new here, but what about your new regiment? What about the brigade commander?
I need a bowl of water to level it up!"
"Think about it!" Ding Wei smiled and shook his head.
