Chapter 403: Old Li plays the art of war to show the enemy and lure the devil to the bait

Everyone covered their heads and looked at Li Yunlong speechlessly.

For such words, they have been hearing Li Yunlong say this since they joined Li Yunlong's army. Although they all know that what their regiment commander said is true, this is somewhat of a pretentious thing.

Li Yunlong didn't say anything except rolling his eyes to his post. Anyway, these people must learn geography after they go back.

Turning his head, Li Yunlong's eyes fell on Sun Desheng again: "Have you found out about other things except where the Japanese were stationed?"

Sun Desheng was stunned and nodded vigorously. Although he was the battalion commander of the cavalry battalion, he was actually responsible for the reconnaissance cavalry. In addition, during the period of study in the military academy, he also learned all the skills of the reconnaissance.

"The number of Japanese soldiers stationed in is quite small. I roughly estimate that they may have reached the level of a large detachment!"

"A big detachment?" Zhou Weiguo frowned and turned to look at Li Yunlong: "Captain, if the Japanese are looking at this, the number of Japanese soldiers is far greater than that of us. Even if we have tanks and cannons, we may not be able to attack forcibly!"

Li Yunlong nodded. He was not surprised that the Japanese had so many troops, after all, they had to be on guard against the Russians.

"In addition to the Japanese in this large detachment, are there other Japanese reinforcements?"

After a moment of recollection, Sun Desheng shook his head: "My brothers and I watched it all night. In addition to the Japanese, there were only some traitors responsible for transporting coal mines!"

"But the commander, the Japanese here are very different from the Japanese we met in Shanxi. The town walls they occupied are about the same height as those of Taicheng City Walls."

"And there is a heavy machine gun every ten meters in the city wall, and searchlights are also installed around the heavy machine guns."

"In addition, barbed wire and heavy machine gun bunkers were also arranged at the city gate, and at least one squadron was more than one Japanese patrolling around the city gate."

As a large detachment that defended the Russians, the Japanese almost made the defense of the county town to the extreme.

Although this county town is less than one-quarter of Taicheng, judging from the level of defense described by Sun Desheng, it is at least one level higher than the defense of Taicheng at the time.

After listening to Sun Desheng's description, everyone fell into deep thought.

Li Yunlong frowned. He originally wanted to attack the Japanese by surprise, but judging from the current situation, this method naturally won't work.

As a large detachment of defense against the Russians, the Japanese must have heavy firepower such as cannons. At the same time, as troops on the grassland, the Japanese cavalry will definitely not be less than infantry.

Once the Japanese discovered them in advance, they were likely to have their tanks and cannons before they could be set up, and the Japanese sent cavalry to attack.

By then, Li Yunlong can't bayonets on cannons and tanks, right?

Zhou Weiguo, who was standing beside him, frowned. After thinking for a while, he still didn't expect a way to attack. In the end, he could only turn his eyes on Li Yunlong.

"Captain, what should we do now? Why don't we go back and mobilize the troops here?"

"I agree!" The monk immediately echoed: "Captain, under such a tight defense, we may not be able to fight!"

Li Yunlong shook his head: "There was too much noise when he went back to mobilize the troops, and the long-distance battle was a taboo for military strategists."

"But there is no way!"

Li Yunlong said in a deep voice: "Although the Japanese defended the city tightly, without reinforcements, their troops only had one large detachment."

"Although we can't get in, it doesn't mean they can't get out!"

Zhou Weiguo nodded and asked again: "Captain, I understand what you mean. Do you want to lead the Japanese out?"

"But the question is what to do specifically? The Japanese here spent so much effort on city defense, which was enough to show that the commander of this Japanese army was very cautious."

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "Since ancient times, what needs to be cautious is often the same strength as you or the strength is higher than yours. If we can't beat the Japanese, do you think the Japanese will chase you out?"

The monk beside him snorted coldly: "Although we are not as many as the Japanese this time, we have tanks and cannons this time. As long as the Japanese come out, we can destroy them."

"Can't beat it? That's impossible!"

Zhou Weiguo glanced at the monk and ignored him.

"Captain, what do you mean is that we deliberately lose to the Japanese, pretending that we can't beat the Japanese, and thus lure them out of the city?"

Li Yunlong nodded: "Show the enemy is weak and lure the enemy to move forward rashly."

"Once the large Japanese troops leave the city, we will have a chance to wipe them out!"

"But then again, we will definitely suffer a loss when we hit the Japanese head, so we have to use the terrain to hide it first, and then we will catch the Japanese off guard!"

Everyone looked at Li Yunlong with surprise: "Captain, how can you hide your body in this place? People can lie on the grass, but what should I do if this tank and cannon?"

Li Yunlong smiled and turned to look at Wang Chengzhu: "Zhuzi, do you still remember the way we took just now?"

Wang Chengzhu was stunned and said with a bitter face: "How could I forget this? There was a big break less than a thousand meters away. When we came up, we almost exhausted our brothers from the cannon camp!"

Li Yunlong laughed and turned around and pointed to the place he had passed by. Everyone looked in the direction of Li Yunlong's fingers, and they were all stunned.

From their perspective, there are no hills. At first glance, it looks like a plain, and it is impossible to see the end.

"Captain...this!" Wang Chengzhu pointed to the scene in front of him and looked at Li Yunlong incredibly.

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "The terrain of the prairie is different from ours. There are many mountains in our country, and there are not many things on the ground. You can see whether the terrain is flat or not at a glance."

"And the prairie is different. Although there are no mountains, there are no fewer slopes like this, and they are covered by grass. As long as the distance is a little farther, it looks like this!"

"If we hide tanks and artillery in the lower terrain behind these earth slopes and lead the Japanese from the front, do you think the Japanese can discover it?"

Everyone suddenly realized that with the help of such terrain advantages, they could catch the Japanese off guard.

Just like when fighting street battles, the Japanese went to chase them with confidence, but as soon as they were around the corner, they found a bunch of people waiting for them.

But the premise of this method is that the Japanese must be drawn out, and the Japanese cannot think that Li Yunlong is too powerful, so Li Yunlong naturally handed over this task to Sun Desheng.

First, Sun Desheng and others were cavalrymen, and their mobility was far beyond all the troops here, and second, the war horses of the cavalry battalion.

As for a cavalry unit that suddenly appeared and its combat effectiveness was still below me, how could the Japanese let go of these war horses with their greed?

Therefore, Sun Desheng’s cavalry battalion is the best bait!

After assigning the task, Li Yunlong patted Sun Desheng on the shoulder and said, "There is only one chance. If you fail this time, the Japanese may not be fooled again!"

Sun Desheng stood up straight and saluted: "Don't worry, the regiment commander, the cavalry battalion guarantees the completion of the mission!"
Chapter completed!
