Chapter 159: Shelling the Puppet Army
As long as the city walls are defended, Yanggao can defend them. Yanggao held on for about fifty minutes, which was enough to hold out until the reinforcements of a wing of the Japanese army in Datong arrived.
What's more, the nearest Japanese troops, as well as the strength of an infantry brigade of the Japanese army in Tianzhen, so, after the order was issued, the old devil Shigeto Sajiro temporarily breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that at this time, Li Yunlong and others had already led the army to the south of Yanggao City less than 300 meters, and then the army surrounded Yanggao and completely locked up the Yanggao Japanese army.
Li Yunlong, Zhang Dabiao, Zhou Hua and others stood on a slope more than 300 meters south of the city at this time, climbed high and leaned on the cover of the woods around the hillside, and observed the situation of the enemy army in Yanggao.
"Regiment commander, according to the preliminary reconnaissance we have obtained, the Japanese defenders in Yanggao originally had the strength of an infantry brigade, totaling more than 1,200 Japanese troops, but recently there were our people near Tianzhen attacking the Japanese troops in Tianzhen, and the Japanese troops in Tianzhen asked the devils on Yanggao's side to reinforce a squadron or so to go east. At this time, it is estimated that there are only about 800 devils in Yanggao City! However, Yanggao has a battalion of puppet troops, with a strength of more than four hundred! Duan Peng, the captain of the special combat team, reported to Li Yunlong the latest investigation of the Yanggao situation and said.
"Yanggao still has a puppet army?" Li Yunlong said thoughtfully.
Duan Peng continued to nod and said, "Yes, puppet army. Since the Japanese army occupied Yanggao, the garrison has incorporated the first part of the Jin Sui Army surrendered by Yanggao, and it has been organized as the second battalion of the seventh regiment of the third division of the imperial army! The puppet army of this battalion has been stationed in Yanggao, damn it, these puppet soldiers followed the little devils to do evil in Yanggao, and they harmed a lot of girls! ”。
"Damn, these puppet army of dogs and traitors, once they capture Yanggao, even if the puppet army wants to surrender, they will catch and kill the puppet army that harms the people!" Li Yunlong scolded, the number of puppet armies, the number of puppet armies in the whole country at this time is more than one million, only a lot more.
Zhang Dabiao, who was standing on the side to observe the fortifications outside Yanggao City and even the city walls, said loudly: "Commander, the little devil seems to be defending it!" You see, there are at least seven or eight trenches around the city outside the city, and the trenches are all puppet troops! ’。
Li Yunlong put down the telescope in his hand with a sneer, and then said: "Damn, these puppet soldiers have really forgotten their ancestors!" Later, let's blow up its turtle son with the ten Type 92 infantry cannons I brought! Let these guys who have forgotten their ancestors know the fate of the little devils! ”。
"Yes, Commander! But Regiment Commander, if we are in the next hour of the Yang High City, it will be a big trouble! Zhang Dabiao said worriedly, although there are not many Japanese troops in Yanggao, but they are guarding the fortifications of the city wall, and they can't defend it, and at this time, their own strength is less than 1,000 people, and they may not be able to quickly take Yanggao City.
Li Yunlong looked at Yanggao's Japanese defense, and said with a sneer: "Damn, Lao Tzu won't be in Yanggao for an hour, just attacking Yanggao and dragging Yoshio Shinozuka's attention." As long as the devil's reinforcements arrive here, we can withdraw to Baishan Mountain at any time! ”。
Originally, the attack on Yanggao was to let Yoshio Shinozuka know that the main force of the new regiment was in Baishan Mountain, and attract most of the Japanese troops to come here to besiege him, so as to reduce the attention of the little devils to Hengshan Zhao Gang and them.
After speaking, Li Yunlong continued: "Order all departments to attack the defensive position of the puppet army in Nancheng!" You must first sweep away the puppet army positions outside the city! Preparing for an artillery attack, at least the puppet army that wants to blow up can't take care of itself! ”。
Zhang Dabiao and the others immediately said: "Yes, regiment leader!" ”。
The battle soon began in the surrounding area of Yanggao City, especially the puppet army under Yanggao City, which felt it the most.
Because, most of the puppet army was forced by Sajiro Shigeto to be stationed in the trenches around the city. The trench around the city was less than ten meters away from the city wall behind it, and almost the Japanese soldiers could easily use light and heavy machine guns to fire at the back of the puppet army at the head of the city. Therefore, even if they scolded the Taijun garbage in their hearts, the puppet soldiers could only go out of the city to defend the trenches around the city under the supervision of the Japanese bullets.
However, in the face of the new regiment that soon saw the siege, Chen De, the commander of the puppet army battalion, suddenly cried with a sad face, this is simply the elite unit in the Eighth Route Army.
"Made, these little devils, don't fuck me to guard the trenches around the city, but let Lao Tzu guard it, Made!" Chen De scolded and said, looking at the equipment of Li Yunlong's army not far away, he immediately knew that it was the elite troops of the Eighth Route Army who were foreseen.
"Camp, camp, I looked at the Eighth Route Army besieging the city opposite, it seems to be Li Yunlong's new regiment! Look! Camp! Suddenly, a puppet soldier remembered something and whispered to Chen De anxiously.
Chen De suddenly jumped to his feet and said, "Made, no!" Li Yunlong's troops? Made, isn't it miserable! I'm Cao! ”。
The new regiment is Li Yunlong's troops, of course Chen De is very clear, at this time he met Li Yunlong's troops, so frightened that Chen De hurriedly picked up the binoculars to take a look, and his face was immediately frightened.
"Made, Li Yunlong's new group has been in the limelight in Jin Province recently! Eat a lot of Imperial troops! Order your brothers, watch the time and retreat into the city! ”
The puppet soldier said in a low voice: "Camp, the little devil behind you, oh no, Shigeto Shaozo has given a death order, asking us to defend the trenches around the city!" If you don't follow the order, the princes in the city will not be soft! ”。
"Made, tell your brothers, be smart!" Chen De, the traitor, waved his hand helplessly and said.
The puppet soldier replied: 'Yes, camp! ’。
At this time, Li Yunlong's troops were ready to carry out artillery bombardment of the trenches around the city of the puppet army.
"Commander, you're all set! The target has been calibrated and ready to fire! In the south of the city, Wang Zhuzi, the artillery captain of the new regiment that arrived at Yanggao City, reported to Li Yunlong.
Li Yunlong looked at Yanggao City in the distance, and there was a dead silence. At this time, although the weather was not good, it was still snowing lightly, and the weather was dry and cold, but at this time, the battle of Yanggao had to be launched.
"Okay, up! At present, the sky is overcast, and the planes of the little devils are bound to be unable to be dispatched, and we do not have to worry about the possibility of the Japanese air force in Datong being dispatched! Give me five minutes to bomb and blow up the puppet army positions in the trenches around the city! Da Biao, you send out two companies of troops, ready to attack at any time! Look at the devil's firepower! ”
Li Yunlong waved his hand and said to Wang Zhuzi and Zhang Dabiao on the side.
Zhang Dabiao and Wang Zhuzi nodded at the same time and said, "Yes, regimental leader!" ’。
"Okay, shoot now! Blow it up a dog traitor! Li Yunlong looked at the trench guarded by the puppet army outside the south of the city hundreds of meters away, and waved his hand with a sneer to let Wang Zhuzi start shelling.
"Yes, Commander! I promise to let these puppet soldiers have a good meal of steel broth! Ha ha! Wang Zhuzi said with a laugh, at this time, this guy already has ten Type 92 infantry guns in his hands, and there are enough shells, so he can be regarded as able to command the artillery to fire again!
