"A simple harassment will not allow the Japanese army to use the troops near the cliff!"

Zhao Zhiguo had to think carefully about every step of the plan.

Even if Zhao Zhiguo and the others launched an attack as a cover, the two Japanese squadrons on the cliff would not be easily evacuated.

Even if Yao Pengju could deceive the Japanese army and get close to the cliff of the Japanese army, he would still have to face interrogation by a Japanese squadron.

The most difficult thing is to deceive this group of Japanese soldiers.

Yao Pengju was a little downcast. This won't work, and that won't work either. How can we fight this battle?

Zhao Zhiguo's analysis was correct. A Japanese regiment had already controlled the entire area around the cliff.

The attacks they launched could only be on the outermost perimeter and would not affect the Japanese defenses near the cliff at all.

Even if Yao Pengju and the others were not harassed, they would still be able to sneak past the perimeter.

The key issue is how to break through the core of the Japanese army.

"Mortars can't hit the vertical cliff on the reverse slope, and we can't penetrate into the core. Do we still expect the plane to fail?"

It's easy to break through in the air, but they don't even have kites, let alone airplanes.

Zhao Zhiguo was also very distressed. The order to eliminate a Japanese regiment had been passed down, but it had not yet started. Would it be stillborn?

If we only cut off the supply of the Japanese army and the plank roads built by the Japanese army, the Japanese troops can withdraw at any time, and the Japanese troops can still be preserved.

When the Japanese army's supplies are restored, they can still return and rebuild the plank road.

"How about fire attack?" Zhao Zhiguo asked.

"Fire attack?"

"The mountains are already inaccessible and overgrown with weeds and bushes. Although it is almost summer, there is still a thick layer of dead grass underground!"

Mountains, rivers, every plant and tree are all warriors!

If it can be used well, a fire can wipe out the enemy's army without a single soldier.

"This was indeed the case when we were conducting reconnaissance. There were dead grass everywhere in the mountains. It was because of these grasses that we thought we could detect the Japanese troops at close range."

The vegetation in the mountains can grow taller than a person in one spring and summer, becoming the best natural camouflage.

A person lies down in such grass and cannot see the other person within a meter of each other.

Only when there is a real threat to the safety of the core Japanese troops will the Japanese troops guarding the edge of the cliff be diverted.

As long as the attention of the Japanese troops guarding near the cliff is diverted, they will have a chance to take action.

"Captain, you are Zhuge Liang alive!"

By the time Zhao Zhiguo formulated the plan, the troops were already in full gear and ready for everything.

Seeing the troops being mobilized, Lu Zheng and Zhao Ziming couldn't sit still.

All the troops have received orders, but their mine security department has not received any orders.

"What order do you want? Your mission is to guard the mine to prevent people who have infiltrated from causing chaos."

Except for the two leaders of the Mine Security Section, they are all disabled soldiers. How can such a unit be suitable for combat?

"Captain, just treat me and Brother Zhao as ordinary soldiers. Even if you let me continue to be a communications soldier for you and run errands, I will be happy."

"If you two leave, who will take care of the mine? What if someone causes trouble and blows up the mine? You have reminded me that if the Japanese army enters Anyang Town, you two have important tasks and must be protected.

To ensure the safety of the miners, take them to the mountains."

Zhao Zhiguo didn't know whether the Japanese army would take the opportunity to attack Anyang Town.

When the time comes, Zhao Zhiguo will not leave a single soldier in Anyang Town, not even a grain of food, leaving only an empty city for the little devils.

The troops were reunited one after another, and Zhu Hao also returned to Anyang Town with a company of soldiers and temporarily incorporated them into Gao Cang's troops.

"You are all upright Chinese men. If the little devil wants to bully us now, we must do what a man should do and fight back with fists. If he wants to bully us, we will never agree!"

Before a war, as the supreme commander, it is necessary to boost morale.

"Set off!"

Following the order, the troops began to march towards their destinations according to the deployment.

The people of Anyang Town also took action. The old, weak, women and children moved into the mountains, and the young and middle-aged people who had not joined the army formed a stretcher team and a logistics team to prepare to deliver supplies to the combat troops.

Gao Cang and Yao Pengju led their troops to follow Zhao Zhiguo all the way to the place where the Japanese army built the plank road.

"Captain, in front is the outermost defensive fortification of the Japanese army. There are not many troops, just a small team! But there are three machine guns, and the terrain on the front is also very complicated. We can only deploy half a company of troops, and there is no large-scale artillery fire. If you want

It’s not realistic to capture the Japanese positions!”

The terrain in the mountains is just like this. It's weird and strange. The defensive position the little devil found is very tricky, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

To attack the Japanese defenses with half a company of troops is no different from risking death.

"The troops can pass through on the right side. We have reconnoitred that area. Even if there are Japanese flares at night, the bushes can provide good shelter."

"Old Yao, I'll leave the infiltration and arson matters to you. I can only ask Gao Cang to provide you with cover!"

How to avoid the surveillance of the Japanese army and successfully reach the other side of the cliff can only be done temporarily by Yao Pengju and others.

"Gao Cang, set up your mortars, draw the Japanese army's attention to the left, and let Yao Pengju lead the troops to pass from the right."

Following Zhao Zhiguo's order, Gao Cang immediately led his troops into action.

After the mortar was set up, a platoon of soldiers also moved toward the Japanese position with weapons and laid an ambush when they were still more than a hundred meters away from the Japanese position.

"Report, the troops are ready for battle!"

A soldier reported to Gao Cang.

Gao Cang nodded, and the mortar launched the first attack.

"Boom boom boom"

The artillery shells fell around the Little Japanese position and caused no casualties to the Japanese army.

The little Japanese immediately lay down in the position, and then fired illumination bombs into the sky one after another.

As the flares lit up, the machine guns roared.

"Da da da"

Machine gun bullets were fired at the Japanese soldiers, and the Japanese soldiers quickly discovered which direction the attack was coming from.

The little Japanese immediately launched a counterattack and moved to the left side of the position.

The flares were also fired to the left one after another, and they did not notice that Yao Pengju had led his people to the right side of the Japanese position.

"It's almost time, let the troops retreat!"

In the darkness, Zhao Zhiguo couldn't see clearly where Yao Pengju had led his troops, and could only judge by time.

As a whistle sounded, the troops used the cover of shrubs and grass to withdraw from the battle alternately.
