On the Eighth Route Army position, Li Yunlong looked at the soldiers with a surge in fighting spirit and nodded with satisfaction. This was the troops and soldiers he wanted.

An excellent grassroots cadre in the army must not only quickly understand the orders issued by superiors but also have their own independent thinking.

You must know how to improve the military affairs, rather than just knowing to execute orders blindly.

Although Li Wen, Zhang Guoping and Zhao Shan are not as good as Li Yunlong's original battalion commanders for the time being, at least they know their responsibilities now.

And in a sense, they are actually similar to new recruits, which means they still have more room for growth!

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "Brothers, it is our first real positional battle. The Japanese will charge at all costs next. Many of you may sleep here forever."

"But don't be afraid! The people of Northeast China will remember you, and all the people of China will remember you. You people, as well as your families, will always be proud of you!"

"I, Li Yunlong, will be in the trenches today, accompany you to live and die together. If I am in my position, I will die. You will continue to fight until the last person and the last drop of blood."

"The battle will not last too long. As long as Captain Zhou and the others in the city succeed, the Japanese will naturally panic. Then, it will be the time for us to counterattack!"

"Yes!" All the soldiers burst into earth-shaking roars.

The words of Li Yunlong and the three battalion commanders have already made them excited.

Everyone had already secretly swore in their hearts that no matter what happened today, they would never take a step back. They wanted the Japanese to know that the Northeast will always belong to China and their Northeastern people!

Seeing the soldiers' eyes becoming more firm, Li Yunlong picked up a crooked handkerchief: "When I was in the northwest of Shanxi again, I told my troops a word. Today, I will also tell you that the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road, and the enemy will be drawn. Brothers, kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

At this moment, the passion of all the soldiers was ignited, and everyone had no fear in their eyes, only the determination to look at death.

The gunman's hand did not tremble anymore, and a slalom bullet rushed towards the Kuroda Brigade like a torrential rain.

Li Yunlong is not an idiot either. He knows well that the biggest threat on the battlefield does not come from the enemy's charge, but from the bombardment of artillery fire.

Therefore, at the moment of their counterattack, he also ordered all artillery fire at the same time.

In this instant, the independent group opened fire with all its might, and flames spurted out from the muzzle, like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter.

Faced with the bombing of artillery fire and the sweeping fire, the Japanese rushed over withered the baptism of the terrifying bomb rain that they had never thought of in their entire lives.

Almost in an instant, the Japanese who rushed in front were beaten to death and flew backwards like a rag.

Some of the bullets penetrated their bodies and continued to shoot backwards.

Countless bloody bullets immediately penetrated more Japanese soldiers, killing and injuring a large number of them.

Maruyama Masanan and Kuroda Ichiro never dreamed that Li Yunlong's troops would have such a strong firepower.

In just a few minutes, their Kuroda Brigade suffered more than one-third of the losses.

In desperation, Maruyama Masanan had no choice but to order the Kuroda Brigade to retreat temporarily and prepare to attack with artillery.

But with previous experience, the soldiers of the Independent Regiment already knew how to prevent artillery.

After the Kuroda Brigade retreated, Li Yunlong told the soldiers that the Japanese were about to bombard the guns, so all the soldiers had already hid in the bomb crater and minimized casualties.

At night when he saw this scene, Zheng Nan's face turned dark. The infantry could not charge and the artillery bombing could not cause effective damage. This made him feel helpless for a moment.

"Baga! This bastard Li Yunlong is simply not a soldier. I have never seen such a shameless way of fighting!" Maruyama Masanan cursed angrily.

The chief of staff on the side smiled bitterly and said, "God General, it seems that our best way is to delay and wait for the arrival of reinforcements!"

"Why don't we pretend to negotiate with Li Yunlong and use the tactic of dragging the enemy?"

Maruyama Masanan frowned, and he pretended to have a peace talk. His arrogant self-esteem did not allow it, but they couldn't fight. As soon as they stopped attacking Li Yunlong, the artillery fire roared, which made him very uncomfortable.

In desperation, he had to choose to agree and let someone bring a loudspeaker.

"Hisser Li Yunlong, I suggest we have a temporary ceasefire. I have something to say to you!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard Maruyama Masanan's words. The first time they saw the Japanese, they would take the initiative to ask for a ceasefire.

"Captain, what is the Japanese who are trying to do? Why did they suddenly demand a ceasefire after fighting this well?" Zhao Shan, who encountered this situation for the first time, looked at Li Yunlong with some confusion.

Li Yunlong snorted coldly: "What else can happen? The Japanese are trying to find a way to delay time and wait for the arrival of reinforcements."

Zhang Guoping was stunned and scolded: "If these cunning beasts can't beat us, we will use this despicable way."

"Captain, since we already know the Japanese's plan, let's just ignore them and rush forward and kill them?"

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "Cycle? You should have seen from the moment the battle started that we do not have the conditions to charge at all."

"And this is just a Ha City. Even if we can attack Ha City, our troops will definitely be seriously injured. What should the Japanese in other places do if we launch a charge?"

"What should I do? You can't watch the Japanese delay time and wait for their support to arrive?"

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "The Japanese want to delay time, so why don't they follow us? Don't forget that Captain Zhou and the others are still in the city at this time."

"I want to see if the Japanese support is coming quickly, or Captain Zhou and the others are fast!"

At the same time, in Ha City, Minglou and everyone had already arrived in an alley outside the command center.

"Why did the cannon sound stop? Commander Li and the others would not be defeated by the Japanese so soon, right?" Tang Shanhai said nervously.

Zhou Weiguo snorted coldly: "Stop talking nonsense. If the regiment commander is defeated so easily, then he will not be the powerful Li Yunlong."

Minglou nodded: "Okay, no matter what the battle situation outside, our mission will still be completed."

"Captain Zhou, how are you doing?"

Zhou Weiguo smiled slightly and looked at the members of the special forces team who had already changed into Japanese clothes behind him.

"Everything is ready, you can act at any time!"

Minglou nodded: "Remember, after attracting the Japanese, you will run to the west immediately. After guiding the Japanese, we will sneak in immediately."

"As long as you are angry when you see the fire, it means we have succeeded. Remember that this action is only successful and not failure!"

Everyone responded and immediately divided the labor and started the action!
Chapter completed!
