Chapter 274 Win 3 cities in a row
Zhang Dabiao walked to the phone several times, picked up the phone, but then put it down again.
At this time, a phone call sounded.
"Zhang Dabiao, are you so anxious that you can't sleep?"
When Zhang Dabiao heard Li Yunlong's voice, he immediately stood at attention and answered truthfully.
"Commander, to be honest, I was so anxious that I couldn't sleep!"
"Hahaha, then don't sleep! Your Second Armored Division will immediately move to Xiangguan County, north of Changzhi, and launch an attack at six o'clock tomorrow morning! In addition, beware of the enemy in the north."
According to Li Yunlong's deployment, the 2nd Armored Division would only deploy a maximum of one regiment, and the rest of the troops would be prepared as reserves, ready to attack the Japanese reinforcements at any time.
If Zhang Dabiao can't capture the county town with just one regiment, then he should quit his job as division commander.
Finally, on the next morning, three red flares appeared in the skies over Licheng, Shexian and Xiangguanxian.
In an instant, the torrent of steel began to advance towards their respective target areas.
In the direction of Licheng, a heavy Tiger tank battalion, divided into companies and with the cooperation of an armored infantry regiment, advanced towards Licheng along a ten-kilometer horizontal line.
They crushed the enemy with ease along the way. After the turret was destroyed by the tanks, the armored infantry sent out troops to finish off the attack.
The large force continued to advance towards Licheng until it encircled Licheng.
The situation in She County was basically the same, except that the main force for the attack was replaced by the Type 5 tank, and the final force was a mechanized infantry regiment.
The Taiyuan headquarters of the Japanese First Army was in chaos, and Licheng, Shexian and Xiangguanxian were attacked by independent columns at the same time.
All the watchtowers and strongholds in the southern part of each county town have been removed!
"Report to the General, three counties have been surrounded!"
Yoshio Shinozuka's heart was now particularly strong due to the torture caused by Li Yunlong. It was just three counties, so he didn't take it seriously.
His wife was kidnapped yesterday, but I didn’t expect Li Yunlong to launch an attack today. I didn’t expect the revenge to come so quickly.
Fortunately, the semi-automatic rifle and pistol were sent back to Taiyuan overnight on the bodies of German devils, and were immediately arranged to be sent to Germany.
"I didn't expect Li Yunlong to be such an impulsive person. It seems that I didn't know him well enough before! But let him be arrogant for a while. Once the German weapons and equipment arrive, that's when they'll be in trouble!"
Yoshio Shinozuka supported his head with both hands and became dazed.
Because he was powerless to do anything about the siege of the three counties, after all, he had no reinforcements to send.
Moreover, even if there were reinforcements, he might not necessarily send them. After all, he did not dare to provoke Li Yunlong before he was equipped with new weapons.
The three county towns were quickly breached under heavy artillery bombardment, and then the tank troops took the lead, followed by armored infantry or mechanized infantry, to clear out the Japanese in the city one by one.
After breaking into the city, Shen Quan and Zhang Dabiao tacitly did not stop, leaving behind a small number of defensive troops and continuing to advance northward, until Li Yunlong realized that the momentum was not right and quickly called a halt.
"Damn it, if I hadn't noticed, these two guys would have planned to attack Yangquan and Taiyuan respectively? Get Shen Quan and Zhang Dabiao for me!"
Wang Meng smiled and pulled down the "Aunt Flags" on the sand table that were planted in Licheng, Shexian and Xiangguanxian, and replaced them with a red flag.
"Old Li, don't bother yourself. I've asked them all. They said their mission is to take over these three counties, which means they have to take over the entire territory. They are strictly following your orders!"
"Hahaha, these two guys really know how to take advantage of loopholes. Tell them to be careful and not spread their business too wide so that they can't take care of it all."
Wang Meng also immediately notified Jia Guier and asked him to send people to take over the three counties and establish local governments as soon as possible.
Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan also continued to clear out the remaining Japanese invaders and traitors, and began to establish local armed forces and militia forces.
Everything is in order.
From then on, Li Yunlong's independent column began to embark on a path of rapid expansion.
The Japanese also began to adjust their strategic policies in Shanxi, Henan and Shandong. They did not deploy Japanese soldiers in unimportant strongholds and artillery towers, but concentrated their superior forces to defend important cities.
Perhaps, just maybe this has become an important turning point in China's war of resistance.
Wang Meng looked at the red flags and fell into deep thought.
"Lao Li, since we left the 386th Brigade, our team has no flag. We are using a piece of red cloth without any pattern. Shouldn't we design a flag?"
Li Yunlong nodded. Now that their separation was a foregone conclusion, they would no longer be able to use the flag of the Eighth Route Army, at least in the short term.
Therefore, it is indeed necessary to design your own flag.
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you. We can recruit ideas from the whole society and the whole army to see what good ideas everyone has. I only have one request, our flag must be red!"
Wang Meng nodded. Red is a color engraved in their bones and can never be erased.
Therefore, after seeking consent from the 386th Brigade and the Eighth Route Army, Wang Meng and Li Yunlong began to publish recruitment notices on Pingshun Radio Station and Pingshun Daily.
It was required to design a set of flags for the independent column army, air force, navy, armed police and police, with the main color being red.
All the ten shortlisted proposals will be awarded one hundred dollars.
As soon as the recruitment notice came out, a flood of letters flooded into the military fortress, making Wang Meng and Li Yunlong dazzled.
Students, professors and even ordinary people in southern Shanxi participated in the design of the flag, and the spark spread to the entire country.
Countless letters were sent from the southwest rear area and even from enemy-occupied areas.
Now the Independent Column has once again shown its face in front of the people of the whole country.
However, people have several questions:
Shanxi has no sea, what is the use of a navy?
Moreover, what is the role of the armed police force?
Wang Meng had no choice but to send another supplementary notice and began to explain one by one:
First, although there is no sea in Shanxi now, their independent column will eventually drive out the devils and defeat Japan, so in order to prepare for the future, they must build their own navy!
Second, the armed police force is responsible for internal security and border defense, equipped with light weapons, including border defense, internal security, engineering, gold and other teams.
The armed police force will be formed by reforming some local armed forces, and the task of border defense will be mainly entrusted to them.
The three armored divisions and infantry divisions will become real field troops to fight the Japanese!
Li Yunlong was very satisfied with this arrangement. After all, their territory would become larger and larger in the future. If they relied on infantry and armored divisions to guard it, the forces would be dispersed. Once there was any disturbance, it would be difficult to assemble them.
In fact, these are all models copied by Wang Meng and Lin Shubing. After all, in their original era, these were mature models that had been tested over time.
No use, no use!
