Chapter 315: Send Reinforcements or No Reinforcements!

"Immediately order the Imperial Army troops guarding the West, East and North Gates to withdraw into the city and move closer to the brigade headquarters! Hurry up and drop! At this time, Nanda Taijiro was in a hurry, and after thinking for a few seconds, he shouted to a devil staff officer on the side with a solemn expression!

"Hai, brigade commander!" The staff officer of the Devil Brigade paused, then turned his head to the side, picked up the field phone on the table, and directly ordered the Devil defenders of the other three gates to withdraw to the city and defend the defensive positions around the brigade headquarters.

At this time, Nanda Taijiro had no other good way, and after the Japanese army under the command of Sajiro Ando was annihilated, he could no longer stop the situation of the 31st Brigade Headquarters in the opposite direction.

In this way, Nanda Taijiro could only withdraw all the devil defenders of the remaining three gates of Yangyuan Castle to the brigade headquarters and trap them. Even if Nanda Taijiro wanted to gather the remnants of the army to break through, the opportunity had been lost at this time, and there was no other way to do it, so he could only hold the core positions around the brigade headquarters and wait for reinforcements.

After thinking about it, the sound of gunfire getting closer and closer made Nanda Taijiro's heart tremble, Li Yunlong's independent brigade was so strong.

In the street battle at night, the 31st Brigade that beat him went so smoothly, no wonder even the 3rd Division commanded by an imperial madman like Matsui Shigen could be dragged to death and annihilated by his troops!

"You drop, immediately send a telegram to the commander of the First Army, General Okabe, and the commander of the Front Army, General Tada, asking for reinforcements, hurry up! Report in detail on our current situation, and tell General Okabe and His Excellency General Tada that the Independent Brigade has moved north from the Hengsan area! ”

Nanda Taijiro knew that this night might be his last, but he already had a clear understanding of the strong combat power of the Independent Brigade, so the old devil could only send another urgent telegram to Okabe Naosaburo and Tada Jun to remind him to pay attention before the final destruction.

"Hai, brigade commander!" The devil's staff officer, who had received Nanda Taijiro's order, paused his head heavily, walked to the radio station next to the brigade headquarters again, and ordered the devil's signal corps to send an urgent report.

At this time, it was learned that the 1st, 2nd and 3rd regiments had cooperated and had reached the vicinity of the Japanese brigade headquarters on Chaoyang Street. Li Yunlong quickly came down from a commanding height in the Yumai Mountains of Hengshan outside the city and entered the city directly.

Along the way, some fires in the streets caused by grenades and artillery fire are still burning. In the ruins of the streets, most of the devil soldiers who were killed were lost, and stumps and broken arms were everywhere. Fortunately, their own side has the advantage of artillery and quick firepower in close combat, and the casualties of the units of the independent brigade are not very large.

However, most of the fire was extinguished by some fighters, and some soldiers had already begun to clean up the battlefield. But at this time, you can vaguely hear the fierce battle and gunfire in the depths of the city.

"It seems that Taijiro Minamita is still resisting!" Li Yunlong muttered to himself.

At this time, a war horse galloped along the main street from the depths of the city to the south city gate, and stopped for a moment when it saw the warrior on the back of Li Yunlong's war horse.

"Report to the brigade commander, at present, the first, second, and third regiments of our independent brigade have surrounded the headquarters of the 110th Brigade of the 31st Division of the Devil in the city on three sides. At present, the attack has been launched, and the devil relies on dozens of sturdy courtyards and several high-rise buildings around his brigade headquarters to defend to the death! ”

"Report to the head of the regiment, the west gate and the east gate have been taken, and the devils at the north gate have given up defending the city gate and withdrawn to the north of the brigade headquarters in the city! I attacked the troops in the city from the north gate, and after pursuing them, I successfully joined forces with the 1st Regiment and other divisions, and officially surrounded the 31st Brigade Headquarters of the Japanese Army! "Night night Chinese

Successively a herald came to report on the battle situation on a war horse, and Li Yunlong nodded involuntarily when he heard it.

"Good!"

Li Yunlong laughed, and then ordered: "Order all the encirclement and attack forces to immediately launch a general attack, and within half an hour, solve the 31st Brigade Headquarters of the devil, if the devil does not surrender, resolutely annihilate it, and leave no trouble." ”。

"Yes, Brigadier General!" The herald had to turn over and ride away.

Li Yunlong, on the other hand, continued to inspect and advance all the way into the city, and temporarily commanded some soldiers to continue to clean up the battlefield and maintain vigilance on all major roads in the city. After all, it's still wartime!

Just when the headquarters of the 31st Brigade of Taijiro Nanda was surrounded by various units of the Independent Brigade, the second urgent telegram that Taijiro Nanda asked for help was sent from the radio signal interception of the Independent Brigade, and was received by the commander of the First Army of the Japanese Army, Naosaburo Okabe, at the headquarters of the Nakajo Mountain Front and the staff officer on duty at the headquarters of the North China Front Army Headquarters of the Devil.

Among them, in Beiping City, Tada Jun, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by the devil on duty staff officer Wild Jiro to report that the main force of the Independent Brigade suddenly went north and attacked the 31st Brigade stationed in Yangyuan City.

Upon learning of the report, Tada Jun got up from the bed at once, and rushed to the command room of the headquarters after getting dressed.

"How's it going?"

Tada Jun asked the communications staff officer: After Li Yunlong's headquarters, which was still a new regiment at that time, ate the main force of the 53rd Brigade under the 37th Division of the Japanese First Army, Li Yunlong's main force, which had been withdrawn to the Hengshan base area, was reorganized, expanded, and upgraded to an independent brigade about a week later, and Tada Jun was surprised to attack the 31st Brigade so quickly.

The confidential staff officer of the North China Front Headquarters of the Devil Zi paused and said: "The commander of the 31st Brigade, General Taijiro Nantian, urgently telegraphed the headquarters of the Front Army, and the enemy army that raided Yangyuan was indeed Li Yunlong's independent brigade. It is estimated to be between 7,000 and 10,000 people. At least no less than 7,000 people, the enemy army has already occupied the southern gate of Yangyuan and eaten the 163rd Wing defending the southern city. Ninety percent of a tank squadron rationed by the Front Army of the 31 Brigade has been destroyed by the Independent Brigade! The remaining five remaining Type 95 light tanks are still deployed around the brigade headquarters, cooperating with the last troops of the 31st Brigade to stand for reinforcements! ”。

"In addition, General Nantian has ordered the defenders of the remaining three gates of Yangyuan to withdraw to the brigade headquarters in the city to concentrate their forces and wait for reinforcements!"

When Tada Jun heard this, he looked at the map that had already been laid out by the devil on duty staff of the headquarters, and a location on it: Yangyuan County, which was clearly visible!

"Send a report to Nantian, and order you to stay on standby! Fujimoto-kun, should we send heavy troops to reinforce the remnants of Taijiro Minamida! At this time, Lieutenant General Haruki Fujimoto, chief of staff of the North China Front Headquarters, had already rushed to the headquarters after hearing the news, and the old devil Tada Jun suddenly asked in a condensed voice.

After just looking at it for a while, Haruki Fujimoto, who learned about the battle situation, shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Commander, I'm afraid that even if the nearby imperial army is rapidly reinforced, it will not be possible to rush to Yangyuan City within an hour!" At present, judging from the urgent telegram sent by Nantian Taijiro asking for help, Li Yunlong has made a sudden surprise attack, and his troops have already approached the city, and with the strength of the troops and the superiority of firepower, the defeat of the 31st Brigade is already obvious. Although, this is not something that can be seen by lowly office. But sending reinforcements at this time did not help. ”。

"No reinforcements? Could it be that you just watched the 31st Brigade be wiped out? Give Li Yunlong another piece of victory? Tada Jun frowned and said dissatisfied.
