The terrain of Baochang is flat, the slope is gentle and the valley is wide, and it is easy to attack and difficult to defend.

However, Baochang County has a city wall, although it is not high or small, but it can also be defended according to the city. In addition, it is on the only road of the Zhangbei Railway and is in the main traffic artery, so the security of Baochang City is still very strict.

Sun Desheng led a team of cavalry to gallop to the west of Baochang, the mouth of the war horse was covered, and Sun Desheng then took a few soldiers to touch a hillside, condescendingly holding a telescope to observe the county seat of Baochang.

"Battalion commander, it seems that Baochang has strengthened his vigilance. The gates are closed everywhere, and you can see that there are devil soldiers patrolling the city! ”

Sun Desheng nodded and said to the soldier who spoke: "Hmm! I see it! Go, take a few people, and come back with a few tongues for me! ”。

"Understood!" The soldier who led the order left with his waist on his back, and then left with a few scout fighters with good skills.

Five or six minutes later, the tongue-grabbing warrior had already returned with someone.

Sun Desheng descended the hillside, walked quickly to several captured captives, and kicked him, "How is it?" Is this the Imperial Army? ”

"Yes, I interrogated them separately, these are all the Imperial Cooperative Army, which is under the jurisdiction of the 3rd Division of the Imperial Cooperative Army in Chahar, and the strength of a reinforced regiment of the Imperial Cooperative Army was increased in Baochang City an hour ago, and the total strength of the Japanese army originally stationed in Baochang has exceeded 3,000. Although the captain of the Japanese garrison in Baochang has strengthened the vigilance of the whole city in accordance with the direct order of Matsui Ishone, but Baochang is on the main road of transportation, there are many business travelers, and the captain of the devil brigade guarding the city is a greedy guy, so we asked for a piece of information, Baochang seems to be on alert in the whole city, but the south gate and the north gate are not closed, but a squadron of devils is placed at the north and south city gates to guard and check the business travel! ”

When Sun Desheng heard this, his eyes lit up, maybe it was not too difficult to win Baochang.

At the beginning, he rushed to the tricky situation because the enemy army in Baochang had more than 3,000 horses, but he didn't expect that the devil commander who defended the city was actually a greedy guy, and he dared not to carry out Matsui Shigen's order secretly when his own army had already entered Chahar.

There are loopholes in the city defense, which is an opportunity for your own side!

"Okay, let's withdraw! Go back and report to the regimental commander! Sun Desheng kicked a few more puppet army prisoners he caught, and said with a smile.

A cavalry soldier who went out to grab his tongue whispered: "Battalion commander, what should you do with these puppet army prisoners?" Bring it back or not? ”。

"Ask separately, did you use the past to oppress the people and cooperate with the little devils to do harm?"

"After interrogation, they all cooperated with the little devils to deal with their own people! This, there are still a few lives of ordinary people in hand! Bah! The tongue-scratching warrior replied.

When Sun Desheng heard this, he waved his hand with a sneer and said, "It's killed!" Let's withdraw! ”。

"Yes, Battalion Commander!" The tongue-grabbing warrior responded, and under the frightened gaze of several Imperial Army captives, he pulled north to the side and was killed!

And Sun Desheng then secretly led people to retreat to the foot of the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain, where Li Yunlong and others commanded the army to temporarily rest, and reported the situation obtained from the investigation.

At this time, Li Yunlong and the others had already led the army to rest in a forest at the foot of the mountain for more than ten minutes, and most of the soldiers' physical strength had recovered. And during the rest, he also replenished grain, grass and ammunition, and prepared to attack Baochang.

Seeing that Sun Desheng came back with his troops to investigate, Li Yunlong immediately summoned Zhang Dabiao and others to hold a combat meeting to discuss the plan to attack Baochang.

"Report to the regiment commander, according to the information obtained from the interrogation of the puppet soldiers who were in charge of patrolling on the periphery of Baochang that we arrived at to investigate. There is an infantry brigade of the Japanese army stationed in Baochang County, with a total strength of more than 1,130 people, 11 heavy machine guns, 18 mortars, and 3 Type 92 infantry guns concentrated in the southern city of Baochang. Most of the devil's troops are concentrated in the north and south gates, and there are only more than 200 troops stationed in the east and west gates, cooperating with some of the imperial alliance troops. The main focus is on the direction of the north and south gates through which the railway line passes! In addition, more than an hour ago, the Imperial Association Army, which had a reinforced regiment from Zhangbei, had been reinforced from the north direction, with a strength of more than 2,000 troops. ”

Li Yunlong frowned, "That is to say, the enemy army in Baochang has about 3,000 Japanese puppet troops?" ”

"Yes, Commander! The few puppet army prisoners who were caught provided that Baochang was already on guard in the whole city, and he should have received a direct order from the devil above! I think I got an order from Matsui Ishone! We were in the area of the northern foot of Yinshan at this time, and it was expected that Matsui Shigen's order would strengthen the vigilance of the devils in Baochang and other places. ”

After a pause, Sun Desheng said again: "Although the whole city of Baochang devils is on guard, the city gates in the direction of the north and south gates, which are heavily armed, are not closed, but pass as usual, but only station a squadron at each gate to inspect and defend!" The captain of the devil brigade defending the city was very greedy for money and did not fully carry out Matsui Ishone's orders! ’。

"Baochang is on the road that the railway line must pass, and the trade freight is frequent, if the whole city is closed for a day, it is enough for the greedy devil captain to feel distressed, and he can't collect commercial taxes!"

Li Yunlong pondered for a moment, then laughed.

The fighter plane has appeared, and Baochang is actually like an unsuspecting city, it depends on whether you want to take it or not!

"Commander, the opportunity has come, let's fight!"

"Yes, regiment leader, let's fight, haha, this is Baochang's devil who has found his own way to die!"

"It is estimated that the devils of Baochang didn't expect that we would cross Yinshan so easily, and go east to Baochang! Hey, hey, hey! ”

......

Zhang Dabiao, Shen Qun and other battalion commanders of the main battalion laughed and said, this Baochang has already fallen into his own side! Fit?

If the captain of Baochang's devil garrison strictly carried out Matsui Shigen's order to guard the whole city, Li Yunlong and others might have to kill and injure a lot of people if they wanted to storm Baochang City with more than 7,000 soldiers.

After all, at this time, there were more than 3,000 Japanese puppet troops in Baochang City, and their combat effectiveness seemed to be good.

It's a pity that the captain of the devil who is greedy for money didn't close the north and south city gates, which is a big mistake!

Li Yunlong saw that everyone expected that the devil commander of Baochang did not close the north and south city gates, which was to create a Jiejia fighter for his own side to capture Baochang.

"Of course, fight, must fight! The devils have personally sent the fighters, and if the labor and management do not take Baochang, they will simply live up to the high expectations of the captain of the Baochang devils! Since the north and south gates of Baochang have not been closed, there is no need to storm Baochang! Duan Peng! Li Yunlong nodded and smiled, and then shouted to Duan Peng, the captain of the submachine gun commando team on the side!

Duan Peng smiled and said, "Commander! You give the order! ”。

"Well, you take a commando team of one hundred and fifty people, disguise yourself as ordinary people and enter from the south gate of Baochang, seize the south gate for me, and cover the large army to enter the city from the south gate! What do you think? Can it be done? ”

Duan Peng smiled, "Regiment Commander, I am the one you recruited from the county town to be a soldier, disguised as a common person, trivial, I promise to complete the task!" Take the South Gate! ”
