The chief of staff, Suzuki, saw that Commander Nishio Shouzo had a distorted face, and seemed to be angry in his heart, so he spoke out and comforted: "Your Excellency the commander is angry, Matsui orders that this group of damned Chinese soldiers be allowed into the city, we can just take this opportunity to wipe them out!" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander, it is reported that all the untouchables in Taiyuan City have fled.

At present, the city of Taiyuan can almost be said to be an empty city, and now there is a Chinese army willing to rush in and send it to death.

Otherwise, it is such an empty city, and it has no practical strategic significance to seize it. ”

The rest of the Japanese officers followed suit.

……

The picture pulls back to Taiyuan City.

Twelve o'clock in the night.

Yang Chen took Liao Yong and others to inspect the city defense position, and after climbing the north gate city wall, he found that many soldiers could not arrive at the front line of the battlefield in time because they were worried about being attacked by the Japanese army at night.

Basically, they were holding guns, withstanding the cold cold of almost sub-zero, on the cold city walls, sleeping with their backs to the city and their clothes.

After seeing this scene, Yang Chen was distressed.

Immediately turned his head to Liao Yong, the deputy head of the regiment on the side, and said: "Withdraw all the brothers on the battlefield, let them go into the city to find private houses and buildings to rest, and leave some of the brothers who are on vigil to change shifts."

It was too cold on the walls, and the brothers were too sinful. After so long, it's time for them to get a good night's sleep.

Otherwise, tomorrow will be the day of the decisive battle with the little devil, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a good rest. ”

"In addition, the rake ear quickly passed this order to the other three gates."

"Yes!"

Liao Yong and Rake Ear agreed in unison.

After the order was executed, Liao Yong and Rake Ear returned to Yang Chen's side, seeing Yang Chen's deep eyes, staring at the distance outside the city, where there were stars and fires, Liao Yong couldn't help but ask: "Tuanza, the devil shouldn't launch a surprise attack at night tonight, right?"

Without waiting for Yang Chen to speak, Xu Ming, the commander of the second battalion, replied first: "It stands to reason that it won't, let's not talk about the fierce battles for days, the little devil is already exhausted." It is said that the aviation unit, which the Japanese army relied on the most, would hardly play any role in the dark night, and at the same time, the power of the field artillery unit would be greatly reduced.

Unless these little devils are squeezed through the door with their heads, they will not give up their existing advantages and use their shortcomings to attack the city.

After all, although Taiyuan City was blown up a few gaps, it is also a terrain that cannot be opened, as long as some machine gun fire is reasonably arranged in these gaps, the little devil wants to launch a surprise attack from these places, it is tantamount to a fool's dream.

Besides, Taiyuan City was already surrounded by it on all sides, so there was no need for them to rush to this time tonight.

However, as the regiment said, soldiers are treacherous, anything can happen, and we have to guard against it. ”

Li Da, the commander of the third battalion, couldn't help but nodded and agreed: "That's right, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of just in case, we should really be a little vigilant about this to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

At this time, Yang Chen finally smiled coldly and said, "On the eve of the decisive battle, how can you let these dogs' Oriental miscellaneous rest safely?"

"What do you mean?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to think of something.

"Rake your ears, pass my order, and tell Zhao Dequan to gather the cavalry battalion immediately! Follow me to the night attack on the enemy camp! Kill a few little devils and come back to sleep!" Yang Chen's eyes froze, and he was awe-inspiring.

When everyone heard this, they all immediately came to their senses, and immediately stood up and promised in unison: "Yes!"

……

Ten minutes later, Yang Chen took the second adjutant to the middle of the city, when the cavalry battalion rested.

Zhao Dequan, the commander of the cavalry battalion, had already gathered all the more than 300 brothers of the cavalry battalion and waited in line on the streets.

"Brothers, what are we going to do now, I'm sure your battalion commander has told you, right?

In that case, come with me now! ”

Yang Chen only mobilized briefly, and then led them towards the West Gate.

After leaving the West Gate, Yang Chen did not lead the cavalry to continue to kill to the west of the city and the Japanese position.

Instead, he turned around and swung north.

The Japanese troops in the west and north of the city did not expect that the Chinese defenders in the city would break through at night, let alone that they would choose to attack from the west gate or the north gate.

Coupled with the continuous battle, the army has long been exhausted and tired.

In order to settle the battle tomorrow, these little devils basically fell asleep and fell asleep.

Even the devil soldiers who were in charge of standing guard were sleepy and groggy at this time, half-asleep and half-awake.

When Yang Chen led more than 300 cavalry soldiers of the Tiger Regiment, he went north from the West Gate and touched the flank of the Japanese defense line north of the city.

These devil sentinels still don't even notice.

"Tiger Bunch! Attack!"

Less than 100 meters away from the Japanese defense line, and when he could even vaguely see the situation of the devil's position under the night fire, Yang Chen suddenly shouted, and immediately pulled out the lucky value +9 Miao knife behind him, and with it in his hand, he rode his horse and took the lead in killing the Japanese position.

Rake Ears, Zhao Dequan, and more than 300 cavalry soldiers also roared and accelerated to rush forward at this time.

This is an artillery position of the Japanese army, in the face of a sudden attack, more than 100 devil artillery on the position woke up from their dreams, subconsciously lifted their pants and turned around and ran.

Yang Chen swept his sword and led his troops to chase after him, and the war horse first knocked a ghost soldier away, trampled on the back of the ghost soldier's head with four hooves, and directly trampled it to the ground.

Then the long knife in Yang Chen's hand swung forward violently, and with the help of the inertia of the war horse rushing forward, the sharp blade with cold light directly cut off the neck of the devil soldier who was fleeing in panic in front of him.

At the broken neck, blood spurted out, splashing Yang Chen's face, and even arousing his endless killing intent.

And because of inertia, the headless corpse of this ghost soldier took a few more mechanical steps forward, and then fell headlong on the ground.

Rake Er, Zhao Dequan and the rest of the brothers also raised their swords one after another, wantonly chasing and slashing.

Soon, more than 100 devil artillery soldiers on the position were beheaded by knives one after another.

At this time, on the position of the northern front, the other devil infantry were alarmed, and some of the devils, under the leadership of some devil commanders, began to turn around and rush towards Yang Chen's sneak attack.

Yang Chen's eyes swept and saw that a large number of devils were coming around, so he immediately raised his hand and said, "Withdraw!"

"That's it?"

The cavalry battalion only killed more than 100 devils in total, and there were one-third of them per capita.

As a result, the brethren all seemed to be unsatisfied.

Yang Chen shouted: "The purpose of our attack this time is not to kill many devils, but to disturb them and make them dare not relax and rest."

Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need to fight!

If you are encircled, the gains outweigh the losses! ”。

After saying that, Yang Chen turned around and took the lead to run towards the north gate of Taiyuan City.
