Chapter 324: Send a report for help first, hurry up!
"Bang Bang Bang !!"
In the sky above Huairen, dazzling flames suddenly exploded.
The three signal flares completely exploded in the sky above Huairen, and the brilliant fireworks directly stunned the Imperial Alliance Army who were patrolling the city.
"What's this?" At the head of the east gate of Huairen, an imperial army holding an old-fashioned rifle looked at the fireworks that exploded in the sky with great confusion, bright and bright.
And at this time, a soldier of the Imperial Alliance Army who sent troops seemed to have a lot of battlefield experience, and said with horror in his eyes: "It's not good, this is a signal flare, there is an enemy attack, hurry up, tell the brothers to get up!" ”。
Without waiting for the stunned soldiers of the Imperial Association Army to answer, suddenly under the east gate, the city head shook with a loud explosion at the city gate.
"Boom, boom!!"
The huge explosion directly blew up the East City Gate. In the night, the city gate had been blown up by a huge explosion, and seven or eight soldiers of the Imperial Alliance Army who were lying down and resting behind the city gate were killed on the spot by the explosion of the huge explosive pack.
"There is really an enemy attack, hurry up, tell the brothers to get up, fight back, fight back. You, call quickly, and report to the princes in the city that the east gate has been attacked by enemy troops! Request for reinforcements, request for reinforcements! "Guarding the east gate of Huairen County is the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Cooperative Army, Han Stunned, at the moment of the huge explosion, these two devils immediately rushed to the head of the city, and saw that the east gate had been shattered by the huge explosion, and immediately realized that there was an enemy attack and couldn't help but roar at the two Imperial Alliance soldiers around him.
The soldiers of the Imperial Alliance Army who were called responded in a hurry: "Yes, battalion commander!" Then he ran away.
And Han Suzi was stubborn, and commanded a battalion of the Imperial Association Army under his jurisdiction to guard the east gate.
It was only after a detachment of the special combat team used explosives bags to blow up the east city gate, and the city gate was opened. Under the command of regiment commander Shen Qun, the 2nd Regiment of the Independent Brigade, which had already been lurking at a close distance of less than 100 meters, had already rushed to the east gate under the cover of the artillery fire of the first part of Wang Chengzhu's artillery battalion.
Since most of the Japanese garrison brigade was located in the city, although there were still more than a dozen devil soldiers who drove the soldiers of the first battalion of the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Association Army to the city to counterattack. He also sent an Imperial Alliance army to rush to the east gate again, trying to block the city gate.
But at this time it was too late, and the headquarters of the second regiment, which was more than 2,000 people, suppressed the imperial army at the head of the city under the cover of its own artillery fire and the artillery fire of the first artillery battalion.
The infantry soldiers of the second regiment took advantage of the situation to enter the city from the east gate, and then attacked the city head along the city wall road.
The shouts of killing continued, and most of the soldiers of the Imperial Association Army in the 1st Battalion of the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Cooperative Army, which guarded the east gate, were the surrendered Jin Army, the Central Army, hooligan bandits, scoundrels and other components of the two devil troops. Its combat effectiveness can be imagined.
Sure enough, the second regiment of Shen Qun's division entered the city through the east city gate and learned that a large number of enemy troops had entered the city. Moreover, the two devil soldiers of the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Cooperative Army, who were extremely fierce in firepower, were stunned one by one, and then they were in a hurry.
Soon, in less than five minutes after the battle at the East Gate, the two devils of the 1st Battalion of the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Association Army scattered and fled in all directions. Taking advantage of the night, most of the soldiers of the Imperial Concord Army threw away their guns and ammunition and hid in the alleys of the city.
And not only the fierce battle in the direction of the East City Gate went smoothly, but the first regiment, the third regiment, as well as the special operations battalion, the cavalry battalion and other units attacked at the same time, and they all went very smoothly.
The sudden all-out siege of the city suddenly broke the silence of Huairen County at almost three o'clock in the morning.
And the fierce gunfire also woke up Yoshimoto Shihui Shaoza, the captain of a certain division of the Japanese 36th Division in the city, from his sleep.
"Click!!
The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside Yoshimoto Shihui's door, and after the rough sound of pushing the door, a devil officer hurriedly ran to Yoshimoto Shihui, saluted heavily and said hurriedly: "Captain, there are enemy troops attacking Huairen." The 1st Battalion of the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Alliance Army at the East Gate made an urgent call, and the East City Gate was shattered by a huge explosion, and a large number of unknown enemy troops had already entered the city. They suffered heavy casualties, ask for reinforcements, ask for reinforcements! ”。
Yoshimoto Shihui had already gotten up, dressed neatly, and walked out of the door with a brisk walk.
I saw that in the sky outside the door, after the shells fired by the artillery of the independent brigade exploded, the bright light caused by the explosion continued to flash. The sound of guns and cannons in the fierce battle was endless, and the old devil was terrified when he heard it.
"Yaga! At least more than five thousand enemy troops are coming. ”
Yoshimoto Shihui said loudly: "Quick, go to the brigade headquarters!" ”。
Behind him, Captain Matsuki Sakuragi, the chief of staff of the Devil Brigade, hurriedly followed, and soon two senior Japanese officers in Huairen City had already rushed to their Japanese army headquarters in the city.
At this time, the Devil Brigade was already in a panic, and Huairen was located on the Tongpu Railway Communication Line, so logically speaking, there would not be a large number of enemy troops attacking at night. After all, north of Huairen is Datong, and the devils of Datong take the train south to reinforce it, and it only takes about forty minutes to reach Huairen.
It's just that Yoshimoto Shihui didn't expect that there would be an enemy army attacking Huairen.
"Eight grid tooth road, all steady, don't mess up! Communications Staff, how is the situation now? Seeing that the brigade headquarters was in a panic, Yoshimoto Zhihui roared angrily at the devil staff officers and other personnel in the brigade headquarters, and then waved his hand to a devil communication staff officer on duty in the brigade headquarters and asked urgently.
This devil staff officer walked up to Yoshimoto Zhihui and said urgently: "Captain, the situation is not good. We had lost contact with the Imperial Allies at the East Gate, and they immediately called to report that the enemy had blown open the East Gate and entered the city through the gate. After five or six minutes, the Brigade Department had lost contact with them. In addition, the Imperial Alliance Army at the North Gate, West Gate, and South Gate all called to report that a large number of enemy troops were coming. The enemy fire was fierce, and the artillery bombardment was very fierce. They suffered heavy casualties, ask for reinforcements! ”。
"Yaga! Damn it! ”
Yoshimoto Zhihui looked at a map of Huairen City on the central table of the brigade headquarters and gritted his teeth.
There is no need for the devil staff to say, just from the direction of the city gate around Huairen, the sound of guns in the city is heard, and Yoshimoto Zhihui understands that the other party's incoming fire is very fierce. The number of artillery pieces alone is probably the size of two artillery brigades.
"Order the brigade in the city to use the blocks and buildings around the brigade headquarters as the core defense area, and wait for reinforcements! The enemy had at least 5,000 soldiers, and the artillery fire was fierce! ”
Yoshimoto Shihui quickly turned his head to the chief of staff on the side, Captain Matsuki Sakura, and ordered: "In addition, send a report immediately and directly request reinforcements in the direction of Datong and Taiyuan!" Hurry up and drop! ”。
"Captain, asking for reinforcements so soon?" Captain Matsuki Sakuragi said in a low voice, I don't even know who the enemy army is attacking the city at night, so I am a little anxious to ask for reinforcements from the military headquarters of the First Army and the defenders of Datong so quickly.
It's just that Yoshimoto Zhihui pointed to the fire in the sky outside the brigade department because of the explosion of the artillery fire of the independent brigade besieging the city, which almost illuminated the entire Huairen City, so he shook his head and said: "The artillery fire of the incoming enemy army is too strong, and I am afraid that our brigade will not last long, we must first ask the military headquarters for reinforcements, hurry up!" ”。
