Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

Chapter 606: Regardless of whether Li Yunlong agrees or not, he has already lost, and we are the fin

Lin Zhenhua led his men to chase for a whole night, but still failed to catch Yamamoto Ikki, allowing him to successfully escape from the base. At dawn, he had to stop the pursuit and ordered the Air Force Battalion to send out a reconnaissance plane to search for Yamamoto Ikki's whereabouts.

Ding Wei, who heard the news, hurried back from Heiyun Mountain and went to visit the seriously injured Zhao Gang with Lin Zhenhua. After confirming that Zhao Gang was not in danger of life, Ding Wei and Lin Zhenhua returned to the independent regiment headquarters and began to preside over the overall situation of the base.

"College student, the Japanese's sneak attack last night resulted in the annihilation of the entire guard company. Even Lao Li's fiancée, Comrade Zhao Xiuqin, was captured by the Japanese. We must quickly find a way to rescue Comrade Zhao Xiuqin and avenge the dead soldiers of the guard company!" Ding Wei said with a grim face.

Lin Zhenhua had never thought that Zhao Xiuqin would be captured by Yamamoto Ikki. He forced himself to calm down and replied with a serious face: "Old Ding, Lao Zhao is now unconscious, and rumors are spreading in the base. The two of us must quickly stabilize the base and dispatch troops to rescue Comrade Zhao Xiuqin. Otherwise, there is really no way to explain to Lao Li!"

"We are currently short of troops. The operation to occupy the first blockade line will be terminated immediately. All troops sent out will be withdrawn. The expansion operation will be suspended with the three fortresses as the boundary."

"In addition, we must immediately send a telegram to Lao Kong, asking him to rush back and help us stabilize the situation in the base. The Japanese's risky move this time further proves that they are determined to take Ping'an County. We must not give up Ping'an County!"

Ding Wei nodded in agreement. A blind expansion of the base led to some loopholes in the defense, which were directly seized by the Japanese special forces. If Lin Zhenhua had not gone to the arsenal for some temporary business, it would have been difficult for him to escape the clutches of the Japanese and he would have most likely become their prisoner.

After the two men discussed it, the entire base strengthened its vigilance, and at the same time found ways to draw out six battalions of mobile forces. Two of the battalions were responsible for patrolling the base, and the remaining four battalions, under the leadership of Lin Zhenhua, were ready to reinforce Li Yunlong in guarding Ping'an County.

"Liu Haishan, immediately send out all fighter planes that can fight. At all costs, we must not let the Japanese succeed in their plot. We must not let Ping'an County fall into the hands of the Japanese."

"As for the reconnaissance aircraft unit, its main goal is to search for the traces of Yamamoto's special forces. Contact me immediately after finding them. We must rescue the captured Comrade Zhao Xiuqin!" Lin Zhenhua gave the order with a grim face.

When Liu Haishan learned that Zhao Xiuqin had been arrested, his face was filled with shock, but due to his mission, he could not go searching personally. After giving special instructions to the reconnaissance aircraft team responsible for the search, he flew away from Maoershan Airport and rushed to Ping'an County to support Li Yunlong.

Half an hour later, Lin Zhenhua contacted Li Yunlong. He did not intend to hide the attack on the regiment headquarters last night. As soon as the call was connected, he said apologetically: "Lao Li, the regiment headquarters was attacked last night. All the soldiers of the guard company died heroically. Comrade Zhao Xiuqin was arrested. Lao Zhao was seriously injured and unconscious. He is out of danger now. All the soldiers of the guard company died heroically."

"If I hadn't escaped the disaster by going to solve the technical problems in the arsenal, I might have been captured by the Japanese. I led my men to chase them all night last night, but couldn't find any trace of Yamamoto's special forces. I suspect they must have received support from the traitors in our base, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to evacuate the base so easily."

"I am now leading four battalions of troops to Ping'an County. Since the Japanese are willing to spend such a huge price to capture Ping'an County, we must not let them succeed!"

Li Yunlong did not expect that such a big thing would happen in the base last night, but he had no time to calm down. At this moment, the Japanese launched an attack again. He could only suppress his anger in his heart and retaliate against the Japanese who were attacking Ping'an County in front of him to vent his anger.

"College student, the Japanese have launched another attack on Ping'an County. I have to go and command the battle to defend the city. I'll leave the task of rescuing Sister Xiuqin to you!"

After saying this, Li Yunlong hung up the communication and directly transferred all three patrol companies in the city to increase the counterattack against the Japanese. The Air Force Battalion also rushed to the battlefield at this time and joined the battle against the Japanese air force. At the same time, it also provided air fire support for the defenders in Ping'an County to help them defend Ping'an County.

Just last night, Jun'ichi Aoki led a regiment of troops to the outskirts of Ping'an County and joined forces with the Songyuan regiment. The total strength of the two sides reached more than 6200 people, forming an absolute suppression of the defenders in Ping'an County.

"Songyuan, the attack on Ping'an County must not stop. We must adopt a wave-like attack method and recapture Ping'an County at all costs."

"Ping'an County was not that important to us before, but since the successful exploitation of Shuiquan Oilfield, the situation has changed a lot. Ping'an County has become an important node for us to blockade the Zhaojiayu base. We must not lose it. I have been authorized by the Taiyuan Command to be fully responsible for the garrison of Ping'an County."

"For this purpose, the 18th Flying Division has urgently allocated a squadron of fighter jets and a squadron of bombers to help us capture Ping'an County. The air reinforcements are expected to arrive at o'clock in the morning." Jun'ichi Aoki said with confidence.

Ichiro Matsubara also showed a relaxed smile on his face. He did not feel any reluctance to hand over the command. He was originally under the command of Jun'ichi Aoki, but due to the blind command of the headquarters, he was arranged to attack the 358th Regiment in Niujia Village without any air support, which made his attack ineffective. He had no choice but to give up.

The reason why he agreed to the request of Kojiro Hirata and others and came to help them retake Ping'an County was mainly to reduce the guilt for the previous unfavorable combat. Otherwise, how could he surrender just for 20 oceans?

"Your Excellency General, I have good news to tell you. We have captured Li Yunlong's fiancée and are on the way to bring her here tomorrow night. We can use her to make a deal with Li Yunlong. As long as Li Yunlong is willing to give up Ping'an County, we can return his fiancée!" Ichiro Matsubara replied with sinister intentions.

Aoki Jun'ichi smiled disdainfully and laughed heartily, "Yoshi! Trading a woman for a city is indeed a very good plan. I want to see what choice Li Yunlong will make. No matter which one he chooses in the end, he will be caught in an awkward dilemma. Maybe Li Yunlong will be killed by his own people without us having to do anything. I have to say that the person who came up with this plan is indeed a talent!"

However, Qing Muchuan had no intention of meeting this person. What he hated most was conspiracy and intrigue. He always felt that soldiers should decide the outcome on the battlefield. However, due to the previous defeat, his prestige suffered a severe blow. In order to wash away the shame of his previous defeat, he used conspiracy and intrigue against Li Yunlong. He no longer had psychological cleanliness.

"Songyuan, this matter is in your hands. I will mobilize two battalions of reinforcements for you, so that you can attack Ping'an County without any worries. In fact, compared to taking Ping'an County, I hope to persuade Li Yunlong to surrender. In the previous battle of Xiaosongling, Li Yunlong was indeed a very admirable opponent. The most important thing is that his major change in tactics made me realize that our enemy is much more terrifying than we imagined!"

"I never thought that the enemy's firepower could be so fierce. This made many of our previous targeted tactical training completely useless. The enemy simply used ammunition to accumulate victory after victory."

"The last time I was at the Xiaosongling position, I encountered a high-intensity bombing by the enemy. The total amount of ammunition dropped was more than 500 tons. It can be seen how crazy Li Yunlong has become."

"We thought that after the successful exploitation of Shuiquan Oilfield, we could also go all out to fight, but unfortunately, more than half of the oil we extracted was given to the navy, and 12% of the remaining half had to be used to support other troops. Our th Army only got %."

"Yesterday, I proposed to the Commander that we use the same oil barrel bombs as the enemy to bomb the Zhaojiayu base. But the Commander rejected it because of the lack of fuel. When I saw these four words, I wondered if there was something wrong with my eyes."

"After some investigation, I found out that the 12th Army did not get all of the % of fuel. They only got %. As for the missing %, it was resold on the black market to solve the problem of insufficient military funds."

"Most areas of Jin Province have suffered from drought, and a small part of the area has suffered from locust plagues, which has caused problems with the supply of the imperial army. The situation is much worse than we expected. His Excellency the Commander has approved the trade of medicines with the Zhaojiayu base to raise funds. After all, the medicines of the Zhaojiayu base are very popular internationally. We can definitely use this to lay eggs and strengthen the armaments of our 12th Army!"

In fact, the situation of the 12th Army is even worse than what Jun'ichi Aoki said, otherwise Yoshio Shinozuka would not have done such a thing. He was really forced into a desperate situation and had no choice but to do so!
