At six o'clock in the evening, outside Yonghe County, Liu Gen quietly left with a battalion of the 2nd Regiment and soldiers from the artillery battalion.

As soon as the devils launched an attack on Liulin County today, Liu Gen and Commander Fu got the news, and after waiting for a day and not finding that the devil's troops appeared around Yonghe County, Liu Gen and the two could be sure that the devils had no idea about Yonghe County for the time being.

Yonghe County is relatively far away from the devil, even if it has a certain strategic value, it is impossible to directly abandon Liulin County and Xi County to attack Yonghe County. If the devils really do this, then it will definitely be what the 120th Division wants to see, and at that time, the troops of the Eighth Route Army in the surrounding area may not be able to encircle and suppress the attacking devils.

Commander Fu is the commander of the 2nd regiment, and he needs to stay to defend Yonghe County, but Liu Gen doesn't need to, before Liulin County and Xi County are not taken by the devils, Yonghe County is still very safe. Originally, Liu Gen was not prepared to make a move, but after receiving the combat order issued by Division Commander He, he decisively took two battalions of soldiers to carry out the operation.

In last night's battle, Liu Gen was able to have the help of the cavalry detachment, but tonight, he was not treated so well. There is no way, at this time, the cavalry detachment is not near Yonghe County, but has long run to the rear of the devils and tried to disrupt the rear transportation of the devils.

With the mobility of the cavalry detachment, they will inevitably have a great impact on the devils when they go to the rear of the devils, and the soldiers of the cavalry detachment carry enough explosives, which means that they have stronger destructive power. As for putting the cavalry detachment head-on with the devil troops, this is naturally simply impossible.

For the Eighth Route Army, the cavalry is a treasure, and the 120th Division can develop a cavalry detachment It is also a waste of energy, so that the cavalry detachment can directly fight the devil troops head-on, and Division Commander He has never had such an idea. Originally, the situation of the 120th Division was not very good, and if the cavalry detachment was really lost, then Division Commander He didn't know if he could establish another cavalry unit.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Liu Gen led the soldiers to Nuanquan Town, where there was a squad of devils and a puppet army to defend. After Shilou County was successfully occupied by the 120th Division, the devil soldiers in Nuanquan Town became vigilant, and their defense became much stronger. It's just that because the location of Warm Springs Town is not important, Warm Springs Town has not received any military support.

In Commander He's view, the location of Nuanquan Town is very important, once the devils react and increase a large number of troops in Nuanquan Town, then with Nuanquan Town as the center, it can threaten Liulin County, Shilou County and Xi County occupied by the 120th Division at any time. After clearly knowing the importance of Nuanquan Town, Liu Gen was also sent out.

Liu Gen is a talent, and Division Commander He believes that with Liu Gen's ability, it will not be difficult to lead two battalions of soldiers to take Nuanquan Town. There are a lot of devils who were killed by Liu Gen, and a devil team is nothing. Division Commander He couldn't find a suitable candidate, so he chose to send Liu Gen out, compared with Commander Fu, who needed to be responsible for defending the county seat, Liu Gen was undoubtedly much easier.

After arriving in Nuanquan Town, Liu Gen did not attack immediately, he could see that the devils in Nuanquan Town were very vigilant, and there were two turrets on the periphery of Nuanquan Town. The two turrets are horns of each other, and it is not easy to take down the two devil turrets in the first place.

With the strength in Liu Gen's hands, it is enough to storm the two devil turrets, but if he chooses to attack, there will inevitably be a lot of casualties, which Liu Gen does not want to see.

"Battalion Commander Zhang, is there a way to touch the vicinity of the devil's turret?" Liu Gen looked at Battalion Commander Zhang of the 1st Battalion of the 2nd Regiment beside him, wanting to know Battalion Commander Zhang's thoughts.

Battalion Commander Zhang pondered for a moment and shook his head helplessly, "The devil is very vigilant, not to mention that the devil is likely to have a secret sentry, just a searchlight on the devil's turret, it is difficult for us to quietly touch it." ”

"In addition, these devils are very smart, they have made the whole town of Warm Springs brightly lit, and it is very difficult to get close."

Liu Gen nodded, he could understand the difficulty, and looked towards the two turrets of the devil, in the night, it seemed that two devouring beasts were entrenched, and the next moment they would suddenly pounce and devour lives.

"It seems that we can only attack, let the fighters rest first, and we will wait until the early morning to attack." Liu Gen pondered for a moment and made up his mind to attack.

Battalion Commander Zhang had no opinion, he understood why Liu Gen chose to attack in the early morning, in the early morning, the devil soldiers would be a lot tired, and he believed that during the strong attack, the casualties of the soldiers would be less. In addition, there is an artillery battalion, and while the devils are resting, two or three rounds of shelling can solve part of the enemy.

As for the devils in the turret, it is not so easy to deal with them, and it is not so simple to hit the cannonballs into the devil's turret.

The soldiers rested, and it took a lot of their physical strength to rush to Nuanquan Town, and now that they have a certain amount of rest, they naturally don't want to waste it.

Liu Gen didn't rest, he picked up the binoculars and carefully observed the two turrets of the devil, with Liu Gen there, it was not as difficult as imagined to solve the two turrets of the devil. But even if Liu Gen's artillery skills are strong enough, he still needs to be well prepared.

Under the illumination of the lights, Liu Gen saw a lot of things through the telescope, the two turrets of the devil are well established, and the ordinary troops of the Eighth Route Army come to take down the two turrets of the devil, and there will inevitably be a lot of casualties.

With two turrets for defense, the devils can hold on for a lot of time, once they fail to take these two devils' turrets in a short period of time, then the devil reinforcements from the surrounding strongholds and counties will continue to come.

At two o'clock in the morning, the fighters stopped to rest, cheered up and prepared to plunge into battle.

"Battalion Commander Zhang, you take a battalion of soldiers to touch it, and when our artillery battalion fires, immediately rush over. The two turrets of the devils, I will directly kill them, and I will not let the devils in the turrets have any chance to fire. ”

"I hope you can rush directly to the edge of the devil's turret and capture these two turrets in the shortest possible time." Liu Gen instructed Camp Commander Zhang beside him.

Battalion Commander Zhang nodded vigorously, he didn't understand how Liu Gen would kill the devil's turret, but he believed that Liu Gen said so, then there must be a way to kill the devil's turret. Battalion Commander Zhang only hoped that Liu Gen could quickly kill the devil's turret, so that the soldiers could also be more relaxed.

"Hurry up and get moving, and the fight will start in five minutes!"

Soon, Liu Gen could see the soldiers, under the leadership of Battalion Commander Zhang, quietly touching the location of the devil's turret. It was only because of the existence of the devil's light that Battalion Commander Zhang stopped at a distance of two hundred meters from the devil's turret and could not continue to move forward.

If you continue to move forward, Camp Commander Zhang and the others will appear under the light of the devils, and they will be easily discovered by the devils, and they will not be able to continue to venture forward.

"Ready!"

Seeing that Battalion Commander Zhang could not move forward, Liu Gen gave an order to prepare for battle, and the artillery battalion needed to act.
