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

Chapter 671: There is nothing to be afraid of. We can definitely win the war of attrition against th

Following Li Yunlong's somewhat unclear words, Monk Wei replied with a grin: "Captain, you have always boasted that you are well-educated, but in the end you can't even use an idiom. Those are the rules and regulations. If you weren't eating, I wouldn't have understood what you said. I have to have a good talk with you!"

"Our counterattack today was very effective. We have recaptured half of the lost positions. As long as we hold on to our current base and hold out for another two or three days, there will be absolutely no problem."

Li Yunlong swallowed the food in his mouth, glared at him and cursed angrily: "Monk, you son of a bitch, you really gasped when I told you you were fat, and you dare to make fun of me! After this battle, I will definitely teach you a lesson!"

"The Japanese attacked very fiercely this morning, and we almost lost our positions on both wings. If I hadn't sent the last of our reserve troops, the consequences would have been disastrous. The Japanese were determined to take over Niangzi Pass this time, and they sent nearly a regiment of troops to infiltrate our rear, preparing to attack from both inside and outside to swallow up our independent regiment."

"Luckily, the college students found me in time, otherwise how could I have stayed calm? You, the monk, fought very well today. If you hadn't led the death squad to take over at the critical moment, the entire front might have collapsed."

While they were talking, Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan also came over, eating white flour buns and eating pork stewed with vermicelli, and sat down next to them.

"Captain, those damn Japanese are very ambitious and are planning to swallow up our independent regiment in one gulp, and at the same time take the opportunity to recapture the Niangzi Pass position. If it weren't for the militia regiment coming to support us, it would be impossible for our independent regiment to hold on with its strength alone."

"The Japanese launched nine rounds of attacks during the day today, with more than 15,000 people mobilized. If the puppet troops are included, the attacking force directly exceeded 20,000. The situation is much more serious than we imagined. We only have eight battalions of troops left, and we have lost seven positions. We will lose more positions tomorrow. If there are no fresh troops joining us, it will be very difficult to hold on for two days!" Zhang Dabiao finished the remaining steamed bun in one gulp and spoke with a serious face.

Shen Quan followed up with the words: "Captain, we were able to get air support before, but after the Japanese air force joined the battle, the situation became very bad. We can no longer get effective air support from the Air Force Regiment. Now we have to rely entirely on the firepower advantage in our hands. Once we lose our firepower advantage, we will not be able to hold our current position at all."

"We have used up half of our ammunition reserves, and the ammunition from the rear has not yet been delivered. If the ammunition is not delivered by tomorrow night, the weapons in our hands will really become firewood sticks."

Li Yunlong was very disappointed with the current situation of the independent regiment. Today, they were completely relying on powerful firepower to defend the position. Once the firepower became weak tomorrow, the position would be directly broken through by the Japanese.

"I don't think you need to be too pessimistic. The college students have arranged for people to transport 80 trucks of ammunition to us, which is enough for us to consume in two hours. Not to mention that the base will airlift a batch of ammunition and two battalions of soldiers to us tonight. Our situation is not as bad as you say. With the addition of two battalions of fresh troops, our situation will be much better."

"The night landing guidance system developed by the college students has made it so that we rarely make mistakes during night takeoffs and landings. We can deliver a large amount of supplies to the front line in a short period of time. Our current situation is much better than that of the college students. The college students only have four battalions. It will be more difficult for them to capture the Pingding Gold Mine within two days."

"I still say the same thing as before. You have to eat one bite at a time and fight one battle at a time. No one can eat a fat man in one bite. We are strong and powerful now. There is really no need to fear the attack of the devil. As long as the devil knows that the iron wall encirclement has been broken, the whole game will be completely alive. The balance of power between the enemy and us will change dramatically. Just give us half a year, and our strength can be doubled again, and the number of troops can be directly increased to 20."

"Not to mention that our arsenal has been operating day and night, and a large amount of resources are being continuously converted into weapons and ammunition. We have the confidence to win the battle against the Japanese 12th Army!"

"We have lost more than 600 tricycles in these days, but we have replenished them in just eight days. So much ammunition goes out every day, and we don't even use up much of our previous inventory. With the current strength of the Zhaojiayu Arsenal, it can fully meet the ammunition consumption of our front line!"

"You don't need to worry too much. As the leader, I'm not worried either, so you don't need to worry too much."

When Li Yunlong discovered that there was a slight problem with the beliefs of his subordinates, he immediately enlightened them and gave them stronger confidence.

Just after dinner, the Japanese launched an all-round night attack, and the enemy and our side once again engaged in a fierce battle at Niangzi Pass. Flares were launched one after another, illuminating the entire Niangzi Pass as bright as day. The soldiers of the enemy and our side even engaged in hand-to-hand combat. The fierce battle lasted for a whole night, and both sides had to suspend the battle due to heavy casualties.

The transport plane that came to carry ammunition and manpower supplies to the Independent Regiment landed at great risk and successfully delivered ammunition and personnel to the Independent Regiment, saving the precarious situation.

After learning about the battle situation at Niangzi Pass, Lin Zhenhua knew that he could not wait any longer. After daybreak, he immediately ordered heavy artillery to bombard the Japanese positions in the Pingding Gold Mine. He also used tanks and armored vehicles to launch a small-scale attack to force the Japanese to blow up their firepower points.

"Xiao Zhongyuan, increase the intensity of the artillery fire. You must use up all the shells in these 22 trucks this morning."

"Zhang Dashan, dispatch two tank companies to bombard the enemy's flanks and knock down the huge rock above. We must not let the enemy succeed in their plot."

Under Lin Zhenhua's order, the troops did not continue to wait outside the Pingding Gold Mine, but instead dispatched a battalion and a half to launch an attack, engaging in a fierce firefight with the Japanese. At the same time, a squadron of wooden fighters also joined the battle, with the goal of destroying the Japanese's firepower points and clearing obstacles for the attacking troops?
