Li Yunlong would choose to start fighting at this time, and he naturally had his reasons. He could attract the attention of the Japanese as much as possible so that they had no time to take care of the train approaching them, so the reconnaissance company could rush into the Japanese position and give him a fatal blow.

Therefore, Li Yunlong even let the battalion bear the danger of poison gas bombs.

This is not Li Yunlong's cruelty, but Li Yunlong knew that there were more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers in the No. 9 position, and there were elite combat tests. There was also a battalion of puppet troops with a total force of more than 2,000 people.

If you only rely on one monk to reconnaissance company with more than 100 people, even if the reconnaissance company is an elite soldier, even if they are unprepared to attack the Japanese, then the stone bull will go to the sea without returning.

Therefore, this battle can only be fought in this way, combining flank interludes and frontal attack.

Although the first battalion may suffer heavy losses, isn’t that the case in war? Either you die or I live!

If you are worried about the casualties of the troops and dare not rush forward, you will probably suffer greater losses in the future, and you may even be unable to defend Yuncheng.

The first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao also knew this, so he briefly explained to the soldiers before the battle.

"Comrades!" Zhang Dabiao said in a heavy tone: "You all know what happened. The despicable Japanese used poison gas bombs on us. The comrades in the Fourth Battalion have suffered more than 300 casualties. We have gone up now, and the casualties may be even greater. Are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" the soldiers answered in unison.

In fact, it is fake to say that you are not afraid of bullets or shells. If you are not afraid of bullets or shells, then the soldiers who are used to fighting scenes may not be afraid, but the poisonous gas... When they think of the scene of being poisoned, they are festering and drooling after being poisoned, the soldiers' scalp is numb.

But as a soldier, a soldier who shares the same sympathy with the Japanese with deep blood hatred, and a soldier who protects the country and protects the people, they cannot say "fear" and there is no room for "fear".

Therefore, the soldiers actually thought about it. Whether it was guns or poisonous gas, they would die at the same time and vertically, and there was no difference!

This is actually self-comfort, but there is still a difference. The soldiers are unwilling to have the experience of suffering worse than life and death in the end.

So, the soldiers made a private agreement with each other: "Brother, if I get poisonous gas, do a favor!"

Needless to say what "do a favor" means, it just gives you a pleasure.

This is not allowed in the discipline of the Eighth Route Army, so it can only be agreed privately.

Most of the comrades will not refuse because they may be affected by poison gas, and they will need help from the other party.

But there is a problem here, what if both of them are involved?

"This is not simple!" The soldier replied with a smile: "Is there still a strength to pull the grenade? Then we will be together and we will be together!"

The first battalion has always been the main force of the independent regiment, and from the beginning to the end, they try to select good soldiers to the first battalion and other battalions to redistribute them.

Of course, this rule was not broken until Wang Xuexin formed the fifth battalion, had tanks, and reconnaissance company.

However, in pure intra-branch battles, the first battalion has always been the strongest combat power, so it is not surprising that they have the aura of celebrating death and talking about life and death.

Zhang Dabiao knew his soldiers, so he didn't talk much nonsense, just nodded and said, "Okay! This is the first battalion's soldiers. I don't have much requirements. I only have one point. Then see where the Japanese poisonous gas bombs are hit! The middle and front of the poisonous gas bombs should be rushed forward quickly, and one can fight one. The back of the poisonous gas bombs should be retreated resolutely, either wait for the tanks to come up or change the position to attack. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" the soldiers answered in unison.

Zhang Dabiao is dealing with the matter of poison gas bomb rationally rather than emotionally.

He thought that Sun Ming and Li Yunlong's command had been too emotional before.

The Japanese poisonous gas bombs called for retreat as soon as they hit them... Is there any meaning to retreat that has been stained with poisonous gas bombs?

When I came back, I was so bad that I was so bad that I was tortured for ten days and half a month. I was still inevitable to die. It would be better to take advantage of the toxicity and have the strength to fight the Japanese to the death.

Zhang Dabiao calculated with the deputy battalion commander: "Look, we would have to sacrifice about 300 people in this battle. When the Japanese poisonous gas bombs were hit, they were still able to fight for a while. They rushed up to fight the war and died in the end. Isn't that the poisonous gas bomb the same as it did?"

Not to mention, Zhang Dabiao’s fallacy makes sense.

Because poison gas bombs are more of psychological fear, causing morale to be depressed and collapse, and not many people directly die.

If you can overcome this sense of fear and fight against the enemy, it is hard to say whether this poisonous gas bomb used at close range is of great use.

Then, the first battalion went up with just a little protection.

The so-called protection is to wet the towel and cover the mouth and nose as a mask to filter the air, and then simply wrap the exposed skin with a rainproof cloth... For example, if you have gloves on your hands, it is best to have gloves. If you don’t have gloves, just wrap it with a raincoat or bandage to cover it with only expose your fingers.

In addition, the collar and cuffs are sealed. It is best to have leggings with trousers. If you don’t have leggings, use a cloth strip to tie them tightly.

After the artillery fire was ready, a red signal flare rose into the air. The soldiers shouted and rushed out of the trench with guns.

Yuta Takemura on the other side watched this scene, and his heart was relieved.

Yuta Takemura actually felt something was wrong when he launched a feint attack by the Eighth Route Army.

Generally speaking, when facing the poisonous gas bombs of the Imperial Army, the enemy retreated in a collapsed manner.

The reason is very simple. Without the equipment and weapons to counter the poison gas bomb, there is only one way to retreat completely. Otherwise, the imperial army could completely rely on the poison gas to hit the target, unless the poison gas bomb was shot.

But the army in front of him showed no sign of retreat.

Not only did there be no signs of retreat, but there was also an orderly feint attack.

What is the purpose of the feint attack?

The firepower deployment of the reconnaissance imperial army?

Or prepare for the next attack?

Yuta Takemura couldn't understand what the meaning of this. Aren't all attacks in front of poison gas bombs? Didn't the Eighth Route Army understand this truth?

Yuta Takemura did not think that the Eighth Route Army did not know the power of poison gas bombs, because this was not the first time the Imperial Army used poison gas bombs and chemical bombs, which was no secret to the Chinese army, including the Eighth Route Army.

So……

That is, the Eighth Route Army has a solution!

Only in this way can they persist in fighting.

What would be the solution?

Yuta Takemura didn't know.

When he saw the Eighth Route Army soldiers rushing up with towels one by one, he couldn't help laughing: "The Eighth Route Army, don't you think you can defend yourself like this, right? You underestimate the empire's 'special shells' too much!"
