Chapter 692: Begin to fight back

"It looks like we can only act at the right time!"

It is a very dangerous thing for the special operations brigade to only get half of the password, but they have already come to this point, no matter how dangerous it is, for the sake of Datong and the new 33rd Army, they cannot retreat.

"Captain of the first squadron, you and the soldiers will send the supplies to the little devil half an hour after we leave, you know what to do, only the matter of passwords, and you will act when the time comes!"

Datong is still a little far from the Great Wall defense line, there is no telegram between them, they can only guess a time, and then hope that everyone's cooperation will not be too much of a problem.

"After you finish doing things, enter Datong to meet Division Commander Liu, after you arrive in Datong, you have to do two things, the first thing is to tell Division Commander Liu that our special operations brigade has reached the front line of the Great Wall, and the troops in the city can launch a counterattack, and the second thing is to find the brigade commander, no matter what, you must find the brigade commander, even if he becomes a corpse!"

Yan Xuelin came out this time, what he was more worried about was that their brigade commander had disappeared for so long, and he couldn't see anyone alive or dead, if it weren't for the strict training of the soldiers of the special operations brigade, they would have exploded at this time.

However, Yan Xuelin was more worried about these soldiers, the soldiers of the special operations brigade were all selected by Huang Changsheng, and each of them had seen Huang Changsheng, and they also had different feelings with Huang Changsheng. If these soldiers are scattered to carry out the mission, it is likely that they will become wild horses that have escaped, and in order to avenge Huang Changsheng, the military order will definitely not be able to control them.

Yan Xuelin led his troops to the Japanese defense line on the front line of the Great Wall, and half an hour later, the remaining troops also began to march towards the Japanese army in Datong.

Because the new 33rd Army attacked the Japanese army on the front line of the Great Wall last time, it caused great damage to the positions on the surface fortifications of the Japanese army.

At least 2,000 people on the outlying positions on the front line of the Great Wall were strong men who were captured by the little devils, and a group of prisoners of war from the National Army and the Eighth Route Army.

"Password!"

When the special operations brigade arrived at the periphery of the Japanese army, it encountered the Japanese army's outpost, and Yan Xuelin ordered the troops to deliberately slow down, because they wanted to give the Japanese army enough time to react and ask them for the password first, because the special operations brigade only got the password for the first half.

The Japanese soldiers standing guard answered the password, and then checked Yan Xuelin's documents and let them go.

"How many days has the Special Operations Brigade set off today?" Liao Fan asked Li Lingfei, who came to report the situation.

"Report to Brother Fan, it's already the third day, if according to the plan, the brothers of the special operations brigade have already infiltrated the defense area of the Japanese army on the front line of the Great Wall, but they are afraid of accidents!"

What the new 33rd Army lacked most was communication between troops, and if the communication situation of the headquarters could reach any grassroots unit, Liao Fan would not have to rely on guesswork to fight.

"It's almost time, send a secret telegram to Liu Chundao, and let him do everything he can to cut off the retreat of the Japanese army!"

"Brother Fan, the strength of Li Weimin's division in Datong is only half of the Japanese army, isn't it a bit too risky to fight like this?" Hu Guoshan asked.

After Liu Chundao took over the command, although he stabilized the situation in Datong, it was still a little difficult to completely confront the Japanese army, and if he launched a counterattack desperately at this time, he would eventually have an unfavorable reaction to Liu Chundao.

"What other troops do we have in the station?" Liao Fan asked Li Lingfei.

"There is also a regiment of Liu Chundao at the stone gate, and there is also a regiment of troops defending our garrison in our station! These two forces can no longer move, and in case of other situations in the garrison, we will have no troops to adjust! "Li Lingfei didn't dare to risk transferring all the troops, these two regiments were the final bottom line of their military headquarters.

Liao Fan turned his head to Hu Guoshan, Hu Guoshan saw Liao Fan's eyes, and hurriedly avoided it, not daring to look at Liao Fan.

"Lao Hu, do you still have troops in your hands?" Liao Fan looked at Hu Guoshan with sharp eyes.

"Nope!" Hu Guoshan replied categorically.

"Really?"

"Brother Fan, Chief of Staff Li has also reported, except for the troops left behind in our division, Deputy Division Commander Zhao has taken them to support the operation in the Jingcheng area!"

"Chief of Staff Zhao, is the military salary of each unit still allocated from Minister Sun?"

Don't look at Liao Fan's lack of going to the logistics department, but Liao Fan still has a general idea of the income and expenditure of the New 33rd Army, and it is probably still a little difficult to hide the affairs of the army from Liao Fan's eyes.

As soon as Hu Guoshan heard that Liao Fan was going to ask about financial matters, he must have known that he couldn't hide it, soldiers need food and military salaries, and they don't need to nod heads, just check the military salaries to know how many people are in the army.

"Brother Fan...... Van Ge ...... You've been checked, I'll confess! ”

"How many troops do you have left?" Liao Fan knew that Hu Guoshan would definitely be hidden, because the place where Hu Guoshan's division was stationed was the best place in eastern Jindong, and the north-south communication line in eastern Jindong ran through, and the economy was developed.

Hu Guoshan stretched out his hand and gestured in front of Liao Fan.

"Five thousand?"

Hu Guoshan nodded vigorously: "But these five thousand are all newly recruited recruits, and they have never been on the battlefield, and their combat effectiveness is a little worse!" ”

"Now I will use five thousand straw men, you don't have to keep these five thousand troops, all of them will be supplemented to Li Weimin's division, and let Liu Chundao command them to fight!" Li Lingfei, you tell Liu Chundao that as soon as these 5,000 soldiers arrive, he must cut off the retreat of the Japanese army for me within two days! ”

They were originally inseparable from the Japanese army, since the Japanese army had penetrated deeply, Liao Fan could not let them go back so easily, and he also wanted to take the line of the Great Wall from them, as long as the plan was successful, there would be no more war in Datong in the future.

"I'll do it!"

"Wait! Liu Chundao's strength is definitely not enough to block the attack of the little devils, so one battalion of troops from Shimen and the guard regiment will be transferred to disperse and sneak into Hongtao Mountain on the west side of Datong, where are the little devils waiting, their purpose is to kill and injure the living force of the little devils! ”

Liao Fan thought about it, if he learned that the first line of the Great Wall was occupied by the New 33rd Army, plus the troops sent out by Liu Chundao, the Japanese army's retreat road would have two lines of defense of the New 33rd Army, and the Japanese commander would probably order to enter the mountains from the west side of Datong, and then withdraw.

"Brother Fan, why don't they go east?" Hu Guoshan asked.

"On the east side is the Nanyang River, the river directly passes through Tianzhen, this place is a good place for ambushes, it is impossible for the Japanese command not to know!"

"But what if?"

"Even if they retreat to the east, we have nothing to lose, just let the troops withdraw!"

It is not impossible that the Japanese army will not retreat to the east, but the strength of the new 33rd Army has been used to the limit, and if the troops are mobilized, there will not be many troops around their station, and the station is unstable, so how can the soldiers fight with peace of mind outside.

If Liao Fan had enough troops in his hands, where would he worry about which direction the Japanese army would break through, they would directly surround the Japanese army. In the absence of sufficient troops, all Liao Fan could do was to set up as many lines of defense as possible to consume the Japanese army's troops.

As Li Lingfei, as chief of the general staff, he must personally go to the matter of mobilizing troops, after all, the division commanders of various units are now either going to the front line or lying in the hospital, and Li Lingfei can only do the rest of the things himself.

Since Yan Xuelin infiltrated the Japanese army on the front line of the Great Wall with the special operations brigade, they did not take the liberty of attacking the Japanese army, although they successfully infiltrated, but they wanted to destroy the Japanese army while protecting themselves as much as possible, so they had to find the weakness of the Japanese army.

However, there was an incident in Datong that caused a sensation among the Japanese commanders, that is, all the supplies they had accumulated in logistics were blown up.

Under Yan Xuelin's order, some soldiers of the special operations brigade drove to the Japanese camp in Datong, and the two soldiers were in charge of a vehicle and used the same method as Yan Xuelin to infiltrate and successfully enter the Japanese camp.

The car was loaded with weapons and ammunition, and after discovering the place where the Japanese troops had stacked the ammunition, the soldiers of the special operations brigade rushed out in a desperate car and then detonated the ammunition placed on the car.

The violent explosion was more violent than the explosion of the Datong arsenal, and the walls of Datong were shaken, and the fires from the explosion during the day could be seen clearly from miles and miles.

Originally, the soldiers of the special operations brigade drove in two ways, and the rest of the way was ready to drive directly to the Japanese headquarters and die with the Japanese commander, but they rushed to the wrong place and only killed and wounded more than 20 Japanese soldiers.

The soldiers of the special operations brigade who stormed the enemy camp did not survive, and they could not even find the ashes of their corpses.

The soldiers who got off the bus in the middle just saluted heavily in the direction where the fire was lit, and then went straight to Datong. As a result, there was a shortage of ammunition for tens of thousands of Japanese troops.

The Japanese commander, while scolding angrily, called the troops in the rear and asked them to start delivering ammunition to the front line.

After hearing the explosion, Liu Chundao, who was in Datong City, was puzzled, and took a company of guards out of the city to check the situation, only to see the raging fire burning in the Japanese camp, Liu Chundao judged that it was the explosion of the Japanese arsenal, and it is unknown who did it.

"Which god is helping us?"

On the way back to the city, Liu Chundao kept wondering who had helped them so much.

In the end, when Liu Chundao returned to the headquarters, he saw that there were two more strangers in the headquarters, but these two people were indeed from the New 33rd Army.

"Report to Division Commander Liu, our Deputy Brigade Commander Yan asked us to report to you!" A captain saluted Liu Chundao.

"Deputy Brigade Commander Yan? You are the subordinates of Immortal, you are so timely, come on, come on, sit down, sit down and say! Liu Chundao was excited when he saw the soldiers of the special operations brigade, and hurriedly pulled the two people to sit down.
