"Hay, Captain."

Matsuki Sakura didn't know it, so he could only follow Yoshimoto Shihui's order and quickly send a telegram asking for reinforcements.

And at this time, the units of the independent brigade, which had already launched a full-scale siege raid, were in accordance with the battle plan. Attacking the city from the direction of the four gates of Huairen County, he easily defeated a total regiment of the Imperial Association Army guarding the Four Gates, and some devil troops who supervised the various divisions of the Imperial Association Army in the Four Gates.

Very smoothly, the units of the Independent Brigade attacked the city and advanced directly along the main streets of the county to attack in depth into the city.

However, Yoshimoto's reaction speed is still very fast. After learning that the Imperial Alliance troops at the gates of the city were routed and annihilated by the Independent Brigade, Yoshimoto Shiki immediately ordered the devils of the large battalion in the city to shrink and move closer to the brigade headquarters.

After that, the devils temporarily built a large number of fortifications in the main blocks around the brigade headquarters, relying on some existing semi-permanent fortress fortifications around the brigade headquarters to wait for help.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The 2nd Regiment of the Independent Brigade, which entered the city from the East City Gate, under the command of the regiment commander Shen Qun, successfully ate the 1st Battalion of the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Cooperative Army, and the main force of its regiment approached the depth of the city along the main road of Dongjie.

After defeating the small group of devil troops blocking along the road, the main force of the 2nd Regiment quickly reached the south of the core of the Japanese brigade headquarters in the city. Several shells fired by devils with mortars exploded in the ranks of soldiers of the 2nd Regiment who charged and attacked, and after a boom, several fighters died on the spot.

The rest of the soldiers of the 2nd Regiment and the 1st Regiment who were running and charging quickly dispersed under the command of the commanders and fighters.

"Commander, the little devil has mortars. Made, the fight is still very accurate. After a while, Shen Qun caught up from behind.

At this time, the devils had already gathered most of the two devils in Huairen City who were desperate to take refuge in the little devils, the first part of the Imperial Association Army, and the local hooligans who had taken refuge in the little devils, and other stragglers with strong combat effectiveness, and the Yoshimoto Brigade guarding Huairen City, a total of 1,500 people, were guarding the core position of the brigade headquarters in the city.

Seeing this, at night, the Japanese counterattack firepower was very strong. Relying on the temporary blocking fortifications built by it, it launched a counterattack against the charging soldiers of the second regiment with suppressive firepower.

"Contact the first regiment, the third regiment, and the cavalry battalion to see if they are in place." Shen Qun took the binoculars and looked at it for a while, and saw that the Japanese army's defensive firepower was still very strong, and if he rushed forward with the devil's blocking firepower, the casualties must be very large.

A staff officer standing beside Shen Qun said: "Just now, a herald came to report that the first regiment and the third regiment were progressing smoothly, and they were crushing and annihilating the Japanese army that was blocked by a small force of the Imperial Allied Army along the way. It was only less than five minutes behind our second regiment, and it was already on the rest of the devil brigade headquarters. Listen, commander, the guns are already ringing from the north, west and south! ”。

"Good! The little devil wants to engage in street fighting, wants to defend to the death, delusional! Order all battalions, according to the usual smoothness, with battalions and companies as units, to advance towards the devil attack! Tell the battalion and company commanders that they should concentrate on the rapid firepower of submachine guns and machine guns with close combat advantages, and fight street battles, and the little devils are looking for death! ”

Shen Qun sneered, the fierce battle in the night was very fierce, and the Japanese army's reaction speed was not slow.

Although the Japanese commander in the city concentrated his forces and did not send troops to disperse the counterattack. It is estimated that he also saw that the Imperial Association army in the direction of the four gates was defeated too much, and even if it was to send troops to recapture the city gate, it was already impossible. 113

Therefore, Shen Qun quickly realized that the little devil concentrated his forces to defend the core area around the brigade headquarters, which was to pay attention to holding part of the core positions in order to wait for reinforcements.

It's just that for the departments of the Independent Brigade, urban street fighting is already the specialty of the departments of the Independent Brigade.

Soon, with Shen Qun's order, it was not just the Second Regiment of the Independent Brigade. Zhang Dabiao's regiment, Ma Wenhai's third regiment, and Duan Peng's special operations battalion were all engaged in fierce battles, crushing the core positions of the Japanese army step by step.

The night street fighting was still almost three o'clock in the morning, and some Japanese troops were still ignorant. He was hastily transferred by his captain Yoshimoto Shihui to the brigade headquarters to urgently build fortifications, and within a few minutes of being under duress, he was beaten by various units of the Independent Brigade, and he was immediately panicked.

With the completion of the encirclement of the main force of the Japanese brigade in Huairen City, the independent brigade units and successfully launched the encirclement attack. Soon, the loss of a small piece of Japanese defensive position made it impossible for Commander Yoshimoto, who was sitting in his brigade headquarters, to sit still.

The rumbling sound of gunfire kept coming in, causing Yoshimoto Shihui, who was walking around the brigade headquarters, to frown.

"Click!!

The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the brigade department, and a devil soldier hurriedly ran in and said hurriedly: "Report to the captain, the southern defensive position has lost the street entrance position under the Wanjia Restaurant." More than 50 soldiers of the first squad of the third squadron were all killed! ”。

"Yaga! The firepower and combat effectiveness of the incoming enemy army are so strong. The street entrance guarded by a team is so narrow, the terrain is so steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it was actually conquered by the opponent in less than five minutes! ”

Hearing this, Yoshimoto Zhihui waved his hand to signal the devil soldiers to go down, and then said to Captain Matsuki Sakura, the chief of staff of the brigade on the side: "Did the military department and Datong call back?" ”。

"Not yet!"

Matsuki Sakura said with a solemn face: "But it should be soon!" Captain, the strength of the attacking enemy army, according to the reports of the various departments, I am afraid that it is more than 7,000 people. And the fire is fierce, the artillery fire is very fierce! Although we are a fully formed infantry brigade, we also have four Type 92 infantry guns. There are almost forty light and heavy machine guns, but this kind of firepower may not be able to cope with so many enemy attacks. At present, the positions around the brigade headquarters are constantly being attacked, and the positions are constantly lost. The attacking enemy army should have already known about our reality in the city! ”。

Yoshimoto Zhihui's eyes were solemn, looking at the map of Huairen City, the four city gates had been occupied by the unknown enemy army attacking. Most of the main blocks around the Japanese brigade headquarters in the city have been rapidly constructed a number of fortifications under the urgent order of Yoshimoto Shihui to block the attack, but the firepower of the opponent's artillery fire and close-range street battles is too strong, and the Japanese troops who have already fought and defended have repeatedly asked for tactical guidance.

"With so many enemy troops, I'm afraid it won't be Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment. Moreover, the strength of the incoming enemy city street battles is fierce and advantageous, and the attack is decisive and rapid. It's not the possibility that the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army can attack, I'm afraid it's the independent brigade of Li Yunlong's department that has been in a uproar recently. In a flash of inspiration, Yoshimoto Shihui suddenly thought of something, and whispered to the chief of staff, Matsuki Sakura, and said in a trembling tone.

"Nani! Is it an independent brigade? How can it be? The pine tree Sakura was surprised and frightened

Since the first battle of Cangyunling, Li Yunlong's troops have ruthlessly killed many elite Japanese troops in the subsequent operations against various units of the Japanese army.

In the recent period of close range, the one that was killed by the independent brigade was the headquarters of the 31st Brigade of the 110th Division.
