Lin Zhenhua picked up the phone beside him and connected directly to the first artillery company. He gave an order with a serious face: "Without my order, no one is allowed to fire. Let those puppet troops come!"
"Lao Li, since the Japs have set up the stage, we have to move as well. We are too far away and it is too difficult to wipe them all out. I plan to wait until they are close to our position and then give them a ruthless blow. We have to make sure that there is no chance of error and wipe out all these two or three hundred Japs!"
Li Yunlong also interrupted and said, "College student, the Japanese have also sent out two squadrons. While their fighter planes haven't come over, we can teach them a lesson. I didn't expect the Japanese to play the game of making a fake look real again. They are trying to get the wool from a sheep and really treat me as a fool, but I won't be fooled. This time, we will use the Japanese's trick against them and teach them a lesson, so that they won't have the idea of targeting our independent regiment again in the future!"
"College student, you stay here and keep a close eye on these Japanese soldiers who are coming to seek refuge with us. I will go and make arrangements now. Since the Japanese soldiers are willing to die, we can't let go of such a good opportunity. I hope the Japanese soldiers will do more tricks so that we can take advantage of them!"
Li Yunlong and Lin Zhenhua had a clear division of labor, one was responsible for preparing the ambush and the other was responsible for keeping watch. Inukai Ichiro lost hundreds of his men and spent half an hour before arriving four or five hundred meters away from the independent regiment's defensive position. In order to avoid being accidentally injured by the independent regiment, they even raised the white flag, which made Lin Zhenhua admire their acting skills. These damn devils really acted well.
A person's first impression is very important. It was precisely because Lin Zhenhua had a prejudice against the brothers Xue Changkun and Xue Changming, and always felt that they had bad intentions, that he immediately became alert when he saw puppet soldiers running towards the position of the independent regiment. Otherwise, he might not have discovered that the puppet soldiers in front of him were Japanese in disguise. Li Yunlong has always trusted Lin Zhenhua very much and believed in his judgment. Otherwise, if it were someone else, he might not have been able to make it out.
"Damn it! That bastard Miyata didn't even know how to deliberately miss the target, and each time his bullets hit right into our crowd. We have already suffered hundreds of casualties. Even if we can finally reach the position of the independent regiment, the number of people that the task force can actually use for combat will probably not exceed 150. But this will definitely fool that cunning guy Li Yunlong. Until now, Li Yunlong hasn't ordered to open fire, so it seems that he has been fooled by us. The sacrifice of the warriors is still worth it!" Inukai Taro wiped the sweat from his forehead and cursed angrily in a low voice.
Under the leadership of Inukai Taro, the task force quickly reached a position 200 meters away from the independent regiment's defensive position. The next section of the road was the truly dangerous moment. Inukai Taro knew that he must not show his true colors at this time, and while desperately shouting for help, he led his men to rush towards the independent regiment's defensive position. He had made up his mind that after being taken in by Li Yunlong, he would stay behind obediently and wait for the right time to take action!
Li Yunlong had been staring at Inukai Taro. When the distance between the two sides was only 100 meters, Li Yunlong still felt unsafe. He waited until the distance between the two sides was only 50 meters, then he fiercely ordered: "Brothers, fight hard for me, and kill all these damn devils! The devils have been doing these tricks all day long, and they really treat me as a fool. This time, I will make the devils lose both the wife and the soldiers. Kill all these devils in the skin of the puppet army without leaving a single one alive!"
Under Li Yunlong's stern order, more than 30 light and heavy machine guns plus more than 300 submachine guns fired crazily at the devils. Inukai Taro had a smile on his face, but he was directly shot into a hornet's nest by the flying bullets. Because the distance between the two sides was too short, and the devil task force thought they had a sure win, in order to avoid being discovered by Li Yunlong and to make the performance more realistic, half of the devils directly threw away their guns and ammunition, and suddenly encountered Li Yunlong's well-prepared surprise attack. The team of nearly 200 people was reimbursed for more than half in the first short time, leaving only a small team of soldiers struggling to support.
But Li Yunlong did not give them time to react. Hundreds of grenades were thrown out from the position and exploded as soon as they landed. Most of the remaining troops of the remaining squad were killed. Only a dozen Japanese soldiers were left. Knowing that there was no hope of escape, they simply launched a desperate charge. They fired more than a dozen bullets from their Type 38 rifles, but they were bounced off by the solid steel plate fortifications on the position. They had only this one chance to shoot. Li Yunlong would not give them the chance to get close. Dense bullets were fired again, directly turning these dozen Japanese soldiers into a hornet's nest. The Inukai Task Force was completely wiped out. Most of them were eliminated by the Independent Regiment, and the other half were killed by the Japanese themselves!
The two Japanese squadrons that were following behind the Inukai Task Force did not care after seeing the Inukai Task Force being wiped out. They didn't know at all that these people were their own people. It was precisely because of the problem in the intelligence connection between the two sides that the Japanese started killing each other.
At this time, Ichiro Katayama just received a telegram from General Kagesa, asking him to cooperate with the Inukai Task Force to carry out Operation Trojan Horse. Only then did he realize that the Inukai Task Force was actually his own people, and he quickly ordered Colonel Miyamoto to stop the shelling immediately. Colonel Miyamoto did not dare to delay and immediately ordered his men to stop the shelling, but it was too late. The Inukai Task Force had been completely wiped out by the Independent Regiment.
When Ichiro Katayama received the phone report from Colonel Miyata, he was speechless for a moment. But now that the incident had already happened, it would be useless to blame others. What's more, he was the one who ordered the firing personally. He could only swallow his anger and report the matter to General Kagesa. Then he turned his attention back to the front line of the independent regiment.
"Hatoyama, immediately order all troops to make preparations for the battle and continue to launch the attack according to the previous plan. I have just contacted Major General Fujita. In ten minutes, they will be able to rush to the battlefield and will definitely not delay our offensive today. Today is a cloudy day, and the weather is much cooler than yesterday. It may rain tomorrow. We must take down the independent regiment's defensive position before the heavy rain comes. Otherwise, if we delay, there is a high possibility of accidents!"
Under the command of Ichiro Katayama, the Japanese troops quickly completed their pre-war preparations, and the artillery regiment had opened fire first. Lin Zhenhua certainly did not hold back and directly engaged in a head-on artillery battle with the Japanese artillery!
Originally, Ichiro Katayama planned to bombard the independent regiment's forward positions after the bombers finished bombing, but considering that the heavy artillery hidden by the independent regiment might be missed, he started the bombardment five minutes in advance at the suggestion of Colonel Miyamoto.
The artillery battle entered a fierce stage as soon as it started. Under the orders of their respective commanders, the artillery of both sides launched a full-scale bombardment on each other. Lin Zhenhua was not idle either. He put all his energy into calculations and observations. He corrected the trajectory more than ten seconds earlier than the Japanese every time. This meant that as soon as the artillery battle between the two sides started, the artillery company was on par with the Japanese. If the two sides were not far away, they could only use heavy artillery to bombard each other. Lin Zhenhua was confident that he could inflict heavy damage to the Japanese artillery regiment!
"The first row will correct the left deviation by 30 mils. The second row will be responsible for the right deviation by 20 mils. The third row will correct the elevation to 45 degrees. The fourth row will correct the elevation to 28 degrees. Keep the current angle and direction unchanged. After three rounds of shelling, make corrections based on the damage results!"
"The transport team must hurry up and move the shells up. We must fire more shells in the shortest possible time. The artillery battle has already started for three minutes. We have already destroyed a 105mm heavy artillery of the Japanese. Calculating the time, the Japanese air support will arrive soon. We must destroy another heavy artillery of the Japanese before the Japanese air support arrives!"
While Lin Zhenhua was giving orders, he picked up the phone beside him and called the anti-aircraft defense position. Sanwazi immediately picked up the phone and answered it. He heard Lin Zhenhua's order from the receiver: "Sanwazi, the Japanese fighter planes will arrive soon. Your anti-aircraft company should be ready for battle immediately. I have ordered the anti-aircraft machine gun company to be on standby. If you find Japanese fighter planes, sound the air defense alarm immediately. You must fight hard today. I have used up all my wealth this time. Whether we can hold our position today depends on you, Sanwazi!"
"I won't say any more nonsense. Shooting down the enemy's fighter planes is not the goal. The key is to stop the enemy outside the position! I have asked the garrison battalion to sound the air defense alarm in advance and let the people hide in advance. This way, even if the enemy is defeated here, they won't be able to find anyone to retaliate against the people. I have arranged all the affairs. Just stay at the air defense position!"
Lin Zhenhua wanted to explain a few more things, but he heard Wang Chengzhu shouting, "College students, the Japanese fighter planes have arrived. There are 36 Zero fighters, 18 Type 12 bombers, and 30 Type dive bombers. They are about kilometers away from us. Please sound the air defense alarm!"
"Zhu Zi, why are you asking for instructions? Immediately sound the air defense alarm and order the air defense forces to make preparations for the battle. As long as the Japanese enter the range of the anti-aircraft guns, hit them hard!"
Lin Zhenhua picked up the phone beside him and urged in an urgent tone: "Sanwazi, I have also transferred two 105mm anti-aircraft guns to you. As long as the Japanese fighter planes enter the range, don't save ammunition for me. I repeat, I don't ask you to shoot down a lot of enemy planes. I have only one requirement for you, that is, don't let a single Japanese bomb fall into the front line. As long as you do this, I will personally ask the commander for credit for you!"
Lin Zhenhua had just hung up the phone when Li Yunlong's loud voice rang in his ear: "College student, come and see what the devil is up to. They have brought in more than 300 puppet soldiers. Could it be that they haven't learned enough from the lesson just now and want to use a trick to kill us? How much do the devils look down on us? They really treat me like a monkey. No one can stop me today. I have to vent my anger on the devils!"
