#326 - The attack of the three auspicious treasures
Li Yunlong felt extremely excited as he stepped onto the battlefield once again.
Leading his troops, he charged directly from the central position, serving as the central force of the three vanguard armies under the command of the Supreme Headquarters, with the objective of retaking Wenjing.
To his east was Kong Jie, preparing to advance south from Jiangjie to reclaim Xichuan.
To Li Yunlong's west was his old comrade-in-arms, Ding Wei, whose goal was to establish a defensive position in Guicheng, creating a Guicheng-Wenjing-Xichuan defense line, and then seize the opportunity to advance south together with Li Yunlong to recover the Ningbian and Xin'anzhou areas!
Li Yunlong marched rapidly all the way to the vicinity of Dayudong. As darkness fell, Li Yunlong finally took out his map, turned on his flashlight, and after examining the surrounding terrain and the map, he said to Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the 100th Division beside him, "Dabiao, have we reached the designated location? I'll be damned if this surrounding area doesn't look a bit like it."
"Since that's the case, then let's hit them, damn it. Take the 354th and 355th Regiments lightly equipped, block the head, intercept the tail, and cut the waist, and be sure to wipe them all out. Don't let a single one escape from me!" Li Yunlong said fiercely. "Dabiao, you personally lead the two regiments to the front to command. I will follow with the 100th Division's heavy weapons. Don't let me arrive and find that you haven't even eaten this dish yet!"
"Yes, Commander! Guarantee to complete the mission!" Zhang Dabiao brushed the hood of his down jacket back. The gray and white snow down jacket was directly connected to the hood. привычка to throw his hat, Dabiao could only brush it aside. "Guard Company, follow me to the 354th Regiment!"
The 354th Regiment was the main Class A regiment of the 100th Division. The regimental commander was Duan Peng. Hearing on the radio that Division Commander Zhang Dabiao was going to personally command from the front, he couldn't help but complain: "Division Commander Dabiao is too inconsiderate. He even wants to snatch this little dish from us. First Battalion Commander, you immediately lead the First Battalion to march rapidly to Liangshuidong and occupy the high ground! If you encounter the enemy, act according to the circumstances. You can decide to open fire without waiting for orders from the regimental headquarters."
"Yes, Regimental Commander!" First Battalion Commander Xiao Qiang responded loudly.
"Pay attention to the road and compare it with the map. Don't you dare take the wrong road! If there are any questions in the middle, contact the regimental headquarters at any time!" Duan Peng said with a smile and a curse.
Here in this foreign land, they didn't even have a guide. They only had the map obtained from Ren Zhong, which was said to be drawn using very advanced technology called a '3D map'. Now it really looked different. At least in terms of terrain, it was not much different from what they were seeing now. However, the marking of roads was not so accurate.
Many places were marked with highways, but in reality, there were none. At least there were small roads.
Although the troops had now achieved mechanization, the officers and soldiers had not forgotten the tradition of marching on two iron feet.
Upon hearing the order, the troops immediately began to march rapidly and run forward.
Although they heard the sound of enemy mountain guns firing in front, they didn't take it to heart. Carrying 82mm mortars and the new RPG-80s, they left the heavy weapons to the main force to bring over later.
Along the way, except for the soldiers leading the way in front with flashlights, everyone else followed the person in front in the dark. Every few minutes, each squad reported numbers to clear the count and ensure that no one was lost in the middle!
Around 3:00 AM, the vanguard of the First Battalion had already touched the two peaks of Liangshuidong. This made Xiao Qiang greatly relieved. The place they had chosen was the two high grounds that would cut off the enemy's retreat in the future.
"Report to the Regimental Commander, the First Battalion has successfully occupied Heights 821 and 835, please instruct!" Duan Peng was halfway there when he heard Xiao Qiang's call. "Good! Build fortifications on the spot, carefully conceal yourselves, let the enemy pass, and prepare to cut off the enemy's retreat. Do not let a single enemy go, do you understand?"
"Yes, Regimental Commander, rest assured, the First Battalion understands! We will never let a single enemy escape!" Xiao Qiang said in a low voice.
"Duan Peng, this kid, is not slow. He has already taken down the high ground for us to tie the pocket. He is a capable man." Zhang Dabiao led the guard platoon and ran forward all the way, chasing after the 354th Regiment. Hearing that they had completed the task of tying the pocket, a smile appeared on his face.
His 100th Division was among the best in the entire army. If there were any mistakes in this first battle, Zhang Dabiao would not be able to continue.
Now it seemed that the comrades were very supportive, and everything was progressing smoothly according to plan. Duan Peng did not foolishly wait for him to pass by in the same place, but hurried to the pocket area as soon as possible to make the pocket tight!
"Immediately inquire about the current location of the 355th Regiment, how far is it from Liangshuidong?" Zhang Dabiao asked the communications soldier.
The 355th Regiment was also the main Class A regiment of the 100th Division.
"Report to the Division Commander, the 355th Regiment reports that they are less than 20 kilometers away from the Liangshuidong area," the communications soldier quickly found out the location of the 355th Regiment.
Zhang Dabiao nodded. In this way, it would be foolproof.
Even if there were changes in the military situation ahead, and the frontline reconnaissance soldiers did not figure out how many enemies had come, but with two main regiments on top, at least they could survive until the arrival of the division's main force or even the army's main force without any problems!
"Commander, Division Commander Dabiao is now less than 5 kilometers away from the Liangshuidong area. The enemy vanguard is already pursuing the People's Army into the ambush circle. Now we are waiting for all the enemies to enter the encirclement before launching an attack!" In the forward command post, Li Yunlong had been staring at the latest information. "Pay attention to contacting the People's Army that is being pursued, guide them out of the battlefield, and ask them carefully about the specific situation. Have all the translators in the troops kept up?"

"Commander, each company has at least one soldier who speaks the local language, there is no mistake." A staff officer next to him replied, "During the reorganization of the troops, we selected soldiers who understood the local language from the People's Army and local ethnic soldiers and reorganized them into the company."
"Well, pay attention to protecting this soldier who can translate. The biggest risk for us to fight in this place is that we know nothing about the local intelligence. We must rely on these comrades to establish contact with the local people and understand the local situation."
"Especially the situation of the People's Army. If possible, we must incorporate all the scattered teams of the People's Army that we encounter into our ranks and form small detachments with the translation soldiers to guide our local advancement work."
Li Yunlong commanded in an orderly manner.
"Send a telegram to the Supreme Headquarters, the vanguard of my 18th Army has arrived at the designated area and has encountered the enemy vanguard, and is preparing to launch the first battle!"
