Outside the east gate of the county seat of Daimyo, in the hidden Li Yunlong headquarters in the dense forest hundreds of meters away, there was laughter and laughter.

"Regiment commander, Zhou Hua sent someone to report that he had completely annihilated an infantry brigade of the Japanese army that reinforced the county town of Daimyo, killing 1,223 Japanese soldiers, including more than 20 officers at all levels below who killed the captain of the Japanese reinforcement brigade, Wild Boar Yinan Shaozuo and below! A large number of firearms and ammunition were seized. Zhou Hua's department had already cleaned up the battlefield and retreated back in accordance with the regiment commander's plan. Now, the troops have been divided into the north gate and the west gate! In the headquarters, the staff officer of the army reported the latest battle situation to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong squinted his eyes and smiled: "Haha, this kid Lao Zhou did a good job in ambushing. This time, I think even if the commander of the 33rd Division of the little devil sends troops to reinforce the Japanese puppet army defenders in Daimyo County, it will be too late in time! ”。

"Commander, the time has come. Our department has already eaten up a Japanese brigade that has gathered from Quang Binh and Cheng'an to reinforce the county seat, and there is no longer any Japanese puppet army nearby to reinforce the Daimyo county, and the timing is very favorable to me. Siege the city, Captain! At this time, there was already a battalion commander Zhang Dabiao in the command center, and he also suggested loudly when he heard the words.

The others also suggested that they should start attacking the Daimyo Prefecture, otherwise accidents would inevitably occur after a long time. After all, it was already broad daylight at this time, although the wind and snow prevented the Japanese fighters from taking to the air to bomb and strafe their own side. But I don't know when God won't be windy and snowy, and then it will be very troublesome.

Li Yunlong was as good as a stream, and immediately pointed to the military map placed on the ground and said in a condensed voice: "Zhou Hua's department has rushed back, and divided his troops to surround the west gate and the north gate. Da Biao, your first battalion will attack the east gate, and I will send a group of men and horses to be responsible for the feint attack at the south gate, and I will let Wang Chengzhu concentrate all the artillery fire at the east gate to cover your main battalion to attack the city. We're still going to the city through the east gate! ”。

"Understood, Captain!" Zhang Dabiao smiled and replied coldly.

"The rest of the men and horses, three minutes after the start of the artillery bombardment, immediately attack the city. Although Junichiro Yamaoka in the city sent troops out of the east gate to counterattack us and fought with us before, but for us, this is only a small matter. This time it's a total attack, and you must take the Daimyo county within 20 minutes! We can't be here for long. Brothers, kill! Li Yunlong became serious and gave a final roar to everyone.

When everyone heard this, their spirits immediately became excited, and they said in unison: "Yes, Commander, I promise to complete the task!!" ’。

At this time, after receiving an accurate report on the battle situation and Zhou Hua's troops had arrived outside the north gate and the west gate, Junichiro Yamaoka and Yusheng Miyata and other senior officers of the Japanese army defending the city in the city already knew that the reinforcements from Guangping and Cheng'an totaled more than 1,000, and the strength of a Japanese brigade had been completely annihilated by Li Yunlong's army.

For a while, Junichiro Yamaoka and Chief of Staff Yusheng Miyata were both pale, and sure enough, it was Li Yunlong's troops. No wonder, he was able to go all the way south from Juyong Pass, rampage, kill into Ji Province, Beiping and Tianjin, and attack the Shandong region all the way south, and beat the commander of the Japanese 12th Army stationed in the Shandong area, Iida Zhenggu, who was all lost and defeated, and he could not catch Li Yunlong's more than 2,000 people.

"Li Yunlong, this person, is really not a good stubble! The combat effectiveness of its subordinates is too strong. Your Excellency Shao Zuo, a squadron was sent out of the east gate with 500 Imperial Allied troops and some of the men and horses of the Eighth Route Army who were angrily scolded outside the city, and we also lost more than 100 Imperial Allied troops and more than a dozen Imperial Army soldiers! This is still when we went out of the city to exchange fire with the other side, and we lost so many troops in a short period of time. In this way, the reinforcements of the wild boar Shaozuo were annihilated by the elite men and horses of a battalion of the opposing party in a short period of time on the highway section five miles north of the city, and it was not uncommon for them to think that they were lowly in their posts. In the headquarters of the Japanese army in the town of Daimyo, Junichiro Yamaoka's chief of staff, Yuzo Miyata, said bitterly to Junichiro Yamaoka.

At this time, Junichiro Yamaoka was very shocked in his heart, a Japanese reinforcement brigade, more than 1,000 Japanese elite rushed to reinforce. In a short period of time, he was ambushed and annihilated by a battalion of the other party, which simply shocked Junichiro Yamaoka's heart.

With the news that the reinforcements had been wiped out and the ambush troops of the other side had retreated to the north and west gates of the county town and began to prepare for the siege of the city, at this time Junichiro Yamaoka was already very afraid of the new regiment under the command of Li Yunlong.

"The reinforcements have been completely wiped out, and at this moment, if we ask His Excellency the division commander to send troops to reinforce us, there will be no way to quickly rush to the Daimyo county in a short time! Order all troops and prepare to hold the city! Chief of Staff, you drop, hurry up and send a telegram to report the situation here to His Excellency the Division Commander, and ask for reinforcements again! We will stick to the daimyo prefecture! ”

Junichiro Yamaoka thought about it, but still thought of the current situation, Li Yunlong had already eaten up the reinforcements, and soon the other party would launch a general attack on the county seat of Daimyo. After all, if he was Li Yunlong, he would not come to another encirclement point in the Daimyo County to send reinforcements, but would conquer the Daimyo County and eat the Imperial Army and the Imperial Association Army in the city.

"Hay, Your Excellency Shaozo! Do it now! And the chief of staff, Miyata Yusei, also realized something, and immediately paused his head in a hurry, and soon sent the signal corps of the headquarters to send a telegram to Lieutenant General Yuichiro Hatta, the commander of the 33rd Division in Handan, to request the dispatch of troops to reinforce the Daimyo Prefecture.

At this moment, suddenly explosions and gunfire roared in the direction of the east gate of the daimyo county.

"Your Excellency Shaozuo, Your Excellency Shaozuo, something is wrong. Outside the East Gate, the Eighth Route Army began to concentrate artillery fire on the various firepower points of our imperial army troops at the head of the city. The opposing cavalry has already been hussared back and forth, and it seems that they are preparing to attack the city! Soon, the Japanese staff officer of the command picked up the phone, and after a while, Missy Mishi quickly said to Junichiro Yamaoka with an urgent look.

Junichiro Yamaoka said angrily: "Yagaya Road, steady, don't mess up!" Order the defenders of the East Gate, strictly defend it, and order the mortar squad to reinforce the East Gate! Listening to the scale of the opponent's artillery fire, the east gate is the main direction of attack! ’。

"Haiyi, Your Excellency Shaozuo, I understand my humble duties!" The Japanese staff officer paused heavily, and then directly conveyed Junichiro Yamaoka's order to the commander of the Japanese garrison at the east gate on the other end of the phone.

And the war in the county town of Daimyo suddenly surprised Yuichiro Hatta, chief of staff of the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army in Handan City. All the reinforcements were annihilated by the ambush set up by the other side, and the county seat of Daimyo was also in the midst of Li Yunlong's general attack at this time, which made Hatta Yuichiro almost unbelievable.

At this time, not only Yuichiro Hatta was surprised, but also the intelligence officers of the military command who were lurking in the southern part of Hebei Province and various places also urgently reported to Chang Kaishen in the official residence of Huangshan in Chongqing the latest movements of the new regiment.

"Niang Xipi, Li Yunlong is actually as strong as this, this Eighth Route Army is also a force under the command of our national army! Order the Ministry of Military Affairs to send a telegram to Li Yunlong, who is fighting fiercely on the front line, to give a commendation! In the Huangshan Mansion, in Chang Kaishen's office, Chang Kaishen smiled slyly at Dai Yunong, the military commander who came to report on the situation of the new regiment.
