Chapter 338 Can Lao Zheng be faster than me?
What the Japanese squad leader didn't know was that it wasn't just Niangziguan Station. From here all the way to the west, more than a dozen stations disappeared without a trace!
Long before Zheng Kaixuan had finished clearing the first station, Chen Shengli and Yang Wanli had already successfully captured the second Japanese station.
By the time Zheng Kaixuan led his men to the second station to clean up the battlefield, the Japanese in the third and fourth stations had been eliminated, and the vanguard had already rushed to the next station.
At the same time, several other battalions led by Wang Xikui, deputy commander of the Sharp Knife Regiment, were also fighting.
Wang Fugui, Song Pengcheng, Xin Qiankun and others also attacked fiercely all the way from west to east.
Wang Xikui and other Western Route Army troops had made thorough preparations long before Zheng Kaixuan set out.
Wang Fugui has already discovered the specific details of all the Japanese telephone lines, antennas, and strongholds.
When the battle started, the Western Route Army took the lead.
It didn't take long for them to cut off the Japanese's means of communication to the outside world.
Although the Japanese did pass on some intelligence at the beginning, and the commander of the Japanese Taiyuan Headquarters, Yoshio Shinozuka, also received news that some stations and lines were attacked, all the lines were cut off not long after.
Yoshio Shinozuka could no longer obtain any information.
That night, the Sharp Knife Regiment killed people everywhere.
Within a distance of more than 100 kilometers west of Niangziguan Station on the Zhengtai Railway, more than a dozen stations were uprooted.
Wang Xikui led more than one hundred spearhead regiment soldiers and successfully joined forces with Zheng Kaixuan and others!
Zheng Kaixuan didn't let them stay.
He took out another 200 epaulettes and exchanged them for Level Triumph Creepers.
The secret was handed over to Wang Xikui, who was ordered to rush back to Heiyunkou to prevent the Japanese from stealing his house.
At the same time, Wang Xikui was required to lead this group of troops to intensify training in the Heiyunkou area and be prepared to cooperate with the large force to attack Taiyuan at any time.
For the Spearhead Regiment, this battle was not difficult to fight, but transporting the supplies was quite a bit of effort.
Even with a convenient tool like triumphal ivy, it still took the soldiers more than a whole night to carry all the supplies.
The transportation continued until noon the next day, and only then were all the supplies completely cleared out.
At noon the next day, several Japanese squads that rushed to various stations to prepare to take the train were all shocked speechless.
The railway is gone...
The station is gone...
The mountain was still the same mountain, the road was still the same road, but overnight, the world had changed into something they could not understand at all.
After Zheng Kaixuan successfully destroyed all the lines in the western section of the Zhengtai Railway except the section near Taiyuan, no news came from Li Yunlong.
He and Xing Zhiguo did not take the initiative to provoke Li Yunlong. Instead, they ordered the soldiers to drive the Triumph Creeper to find some uninhabited places in the mountains and set up tents to rest.
With the triumphal ivy, the soldiers can easily reach any corner and reach places that the Japanese can't reach.
In addition, there are drones on guard in the sky at all times, so there is no need to worry about the Japanese attack and you can sleep peacefully.
To the east of Niangzi Pass, the railway line to Zhengding was being attacked by the independent regiment led by Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang.
Strictly speaking, this team is not entirely an independent regiment.
Many of the soldiers in various important positions in the team, such as artillerymen, commandos, machine gunners, etc., are from the spearhead regiment.
With the addition of these spearhead regiment soldiers, and the fact that all the equipment for the independent regiment's battle this time was provided by the spearhead regiment, it was almost exactly the same as the spearhead regiment's equipment.
The combat effectiveness of the independent regiment has reached an unprecedented level and reached a new level.
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang’s plan is different from Zheng Kaixuan’s.
Zheng Kaixuan only sent half of his troops to fight, and the other half was responsible for transporting supplies.
In order to prevent any complications and worried that the mission could not be completed successfully with a small number of troops, Li Yunlong sent out all his troops to fight.
As for the transportation of supplies, they plan to wait until all the battles are over before carrying out unified transportation.
Later, near dawn, Liu Daqiang executed Yamamoto Ikki and hundreds of Japanese devils, and then led thousands of militia members and thousands of villagers to help Li Yunlong clean up the battlefield.
Only then did Li Yunlong send some ivy to transport supplies.
"Old Zhao, to be honest, I've never fought such a prosperous battle before! Hehe, we're unstoppable all the way, just like Zhang Fei beating bean sprouts. The Japs don't have any chance to fight back at all. It's so satisfying! It's so damn satisfying."
Zhao Gang also nodded.
"We were able to wipe out all the stations east of Niangzi Pass overnight, all thanks to the abundant artillery support provided by Old Zheng. But I have to say, Old Li, you fought brilliantly, as fast as lightning, and didn't give the Japanese any time to react..."
Li Yunlong's quick action and excellent command this time even impressed Zhao Gang, a college student. He couldn't help but give Li Yunlong a thumbs up and praise him sincerely.
Ever since joining the Independent Regiment, Zhao Gang has always liked to go against Li Yunlong.
Zhao Gang didn't agree with anything Li Yunlong said, and it was difficult for the two to reach a consensus.
This time, Zhao Gang took the initiative to praise Li Yunlong, which made Li Yunlong flattered.
Li Yunlong grinned, revealing a row of big white teeth, and laughed triumphantly.
"Hey! Lao Zhao, fighting beautifully is a must, but you don't even notice who is leading the troops."
"I reckon Zheng Kaixuan might not be able to fight as fast as us in this battle..."
Zhao Gang shook his head.
"Not necessarily. Captain Zheng always brings surprises to everyone..."
In the morning, trucks loaded with goods sped southwest from the Hebei Province area east of Niangzi Pass, heading towards the valley in the mountains where the supplies were originally planned to be stored.
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang sat on the ivy and escorted him personally.
At noon, they finally arrived at their original destination, near a very steep and open valley.
"Hey! Lao Zhao, I told you that Lao Zheng might not be as fast as us this time. Look, there's no one..."
Li Yunlong looked at the empty mountains in front of him with a smug look on his face.
In front of them, there was no trace of Zheng Kaixuan's creepers coming in and out, not even a single one.
Zhao Gang didn't say anything.
The car continued to move forward, and after crossing another hill, it finally reached its destination.
"Old Li, look, what is that!"
Zhao Gang exclaimed.
Li Yunlong quickly raised his head and looked in the direction of Zhao Gang's finger.
His face suddenly turned red, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.
