The west gate of Liaocheng was breached, and the cavalry under the command of Zhang Dabiao, the commander of hundreds of battalions, directly entered the city from the south gate, and then the rest of the gates were also killed by the various siege troops.

The cavalry crisscrossed the city, rampage all the way, and the Japanese puppet army, which was directly killed and fought and retreated, was defeated and retreated to the Japanese squadron headquarters in Liaocheng City.

"Order the brothers, hit hard! Don't give the little devils and puppet soldiers in the city a chance to breathe, on! Hit me hard! At this time, it was less than ten minutes before dawn, and Li Yunlong was already standing at the head of the south gate of Liaocheng at this time, and directly ordered the heralds who came to report the battle situation.

"Yes, Captain!" Several heralds replied, and then rushed out of the city, and went down to the city to convey orders to the troops who had entered the city through the gates.

At this time, in the headquarters of the Japanese army squadron in Liaocheng City, the captain of the Liaocheng Japanese garrison squadron, Masaaki Ushijima, and the squadron adjutant Shintian Sheng, who were beaten to death, were terrified.

Li Yunlong's command post attacked together, and under the volley of artillery fire, it suppressed the fire counterattack of the Japanese puppet army at the head of the city. Immediately after the south gate was breached first, and the remaining three gates were breached at a distance, Ushijima Masaaki, who had no choice but to order the Japanese puppet soldiers who were still able to fight, to several fortified streets and squadron headquarters compounds in the city to wait for reinforcements.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

There were loud explosions outside the squadron headquarters, and the dust on the roof of the squadron headquarters that shook the little devil fell. It made several Japanese squadron headquarters officers such as Ushijima Masaaki and squadron adjutant Shinta Noboru disgraced.

"Your Excellency, Squadron Leader, the situation is not going to be second. The opponent's artillery fire is too strong, there are cavalry vertical and horizontal attacks, although we have initially retreated to the headquarters and several dangerous streets around it, relying on the fortifications hastily constructed outside the squadron headquarters to withstand the opponent's pursuit, but the opponent's artillery fire is too strong, I am afraid it will not be able to withstand half an hour! Squadron Adjutant Shintomu Nitta whispered to Masaaki Ushijima with frightened eyes.

Ushijima Masaaki listened to the shouts of the new regiment of cavalry and infantry that were getting closer and closer at this time, and he was already terrified in his heart, but he didn't expect that the combat effectiveness of the legendary new regiment of the Eighth Route Army was actually as strong as this. In less than seven or eight minutes, he entered the city, forcing his puppet army to lose more than half of its more than 700 days.

Now, although Empress Cang withdrew from the city, there are still at least half of the Japanese troops in the city, and the Imperial Alliance Army has more than 100 people, all in all, the total strength left is about 300. But the loss of more than 400 days of puppet army strength in seven or eight minutes is enough for Ushijima Masaaki to feel distressed.

"If you can't stand it, you have to resist it, communications staff officer, what does the Gaotang Brigade and Regiment Department say?" Ushijima Masaaki waved his hand, pretending to say a word to Nitta Rising calmly, and then asked urgently to the Japanese staff officer who was responsible for contacting the outside world.

I saw that the Japanese communications staff officer hurriedly walked up, and said with a heavy pause: "Your Excellency Squadron Leader, the Gaotang Brigade Headquarters has directly called back, asking us to withstand the enemy's attack for at least half an hour. Your Excellency, the brigade commander, already knew about the emergency situation here, and ordered the Imperial Association troops in Guanxian and Tangyi on the west side of Liaocheng to strengthen their defenses and block Li Yunlong's troops from attacking and advancing westward after conquering Liaocheng. Ordered Boping, the imperial army garrison of Acheng to the north and south to reinforce Liaocheng. The brigade headquarters has sent a direct report to His Excellency Commander Iida of Jinan, contacting the air planes at the Jinan airfield, which had already taken off, to send reinforcements to the airspace over Liaocheng. Please our troops must stand by and wait for reinforcements to hold off Li Yunlong's troops! ”。

"Okay, call back to the brigade headquarters, even if the imperial army in Liaocheng dies until the last moment, it will drag Li Yunlong's main cavalry force!" At this time, Ushijima Masaaki had no choice, even if the reinforcements had been dispatched now, it was impossible to rush to Liaocheng in a short time, so he could only follow the order of the commander of the 5th Independent Brigade Headquarters, Yamamoto Sota, and hold on to the reinforcements for at least half an hour.

"Hai, Your Excellency Squadron Leader, obey your orders!" The Japanese communications staff officer paused heavily, and then hurriedly ordered the communications corps to call back.

It's just that at this time, the gunfire outside the squadron headquarters of the little devil is getting closer and closer, and many shells fall directly in the courtyard where the squadron headquarters is located, blowing up several houses and causing a fire to burn.

The night had not yet completely dissipated, and in the darkness of the night, the guns roared, and the streets were full of traces of bullets from both sides.

On both sides of the street, among the houses, the common people are stubbornly holding the doors of each house to prevent the rebels from entering the war.

At this time, Ushijima Masaaki didn't care about the danger, and personally ordered the squadron adjutant Nitta Sheng to condensed and said: "Nitta-kun, you personally command some of the men and horses, and give me to guard the gate of the squadron headquarters and its two wings, you must hold it, and the two hundred people in front will resist it for me." I'll immediately take out a few mortars from the warehouse behind the squadron headquarters to support you in your fight! Hurry up and drop! ”。

"Understand, Your Excellency Squadron Leader, you must hold your position!" Xintian Sheng also knew at this time that the last moment was coming, and the shouts of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were already clearly audible, indicating that the other party had completely surrounded their headquarters, and it was impossible to break through at this time, so they could only wait for help.

Although the situation is urgent, both Noboru Nitta and Masaaki Ushijima are calm on the surface, and they want to give confidence to the remaining Japanese puppet soldiers.

At this time, the battle situation was urgent, and he couldn't take care of his pretentious attitude, Xintian Sheng went directly out of the room where the headquarters was located, and directly took some of his men and horses to supervise the Japanese puppet soldiers who were guarding the gate of the squadron headquarters and its two wings, and resisted the onslaught of Zhang Dabiao and Zhou Hua and other troops who had already killed in front of him at this time.

Li Yunlong also went down to the head of Nancheng at this time, and galloped to the periphery of the Japanese squadron headquarters in the city. At this time, Zhang Dabiao's troops and Zhou Hua's two troops had already reconciled and surrounded Ushijima Masaaki's headquarters to death, and were directing all departments to storm the little devil's headquarters.

The battle was fierce, and Ushijima Masaaki commanded the remnants of the Japanese puppet army to resist desperately, causing Zhang Dabiao and others to attack fiercely, and they couldn't attack the squadron headquarters in Liaocheng City of the little devil for a while.

"Made, order Wang Chengzhu to concentrate all the mortars and bombard the little devil headquarters for me, and bombard me in the brightest rooms in the compound where the little devil squadron headquarters is located, and bomb me hard! All the cavalry dismounted, ready to go up by artillery fire, and give me a counterattack! Seeing that the battle situation was scorching and there was a danger of being dragged into the city by the remnants of the enemy army in Liaocheng, Li Yunlong directly commanded and ordered the attack.

With Li Yunlong's order, Zhang Dabiao and the others, who were a little embarrassed to attack, quickly came back to their senses in an instant, and directly attacked Ushijima Masaaki's headquarters in accordance with Li Yunlong's order.

"The target Japanese command compound is brightly lit and several rooms are brightly lit, boom for me! Fire! When Wang Chengzhu received Li Yunlong's order, he immediately realized that his artillery was wrong, and directly adjusted the shelling target according to Li Yunlong's order.

"Boom, boom, boom!!" At the sound of an order, dozens of mortar shells whistled and smashed into Ushijima Masaaki's headquarters.

The explosions continued one after another, and several surviving Japanese officers of the Liaocheng Japanese military headquarters, such as Masaaki Ushijima and the squadron adjutant Shintian Sheng, who was supervising the battle command not far behind the gate of the squadron headquarters, were blown to pieces on the spot.

The headquarters of the Little Devil Squadron was subjected to heavy bombardment, and the main commanding officer was annihilated by artillery fire on the spot. The rest of the Japanese puppet soldiers were killed and wounded by the new regiment of soldiers who arrived at the attack, and after the last three or four minutes, they were completely annihilated by the remaining ones.
