Chapter 607: Jedi Strikes Back! (Second Update!) )
"Give the signal, the troops begin to counterattack, the night attack begins!" Surrounded by devils, Hong Linfeng decisively ordered!
"Bang ......"
As soon as he finished speaking, three signal flares rose into the air at the door of the dim headquarters, and then burst out three brilliant white lights!
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Artillery speaks first!
It is no longer like during the day, when one shell is fired and then transferred, but an artillery position shoots out five rounds of rapid fire in a row before stopping, moving to a new gun position and continuing to fire!
In the violent explosion, the devil was blown up at that time, hiding in the rubble, waiting for the shelling to end!
The Eighth Route Army in the encirclement was not idle, and under the cover of artillery fire, it walked through the ruins like monkeys, trying to get as close as possible to the devil's defense line!
During the day, the troops behind the devil were not idle, as long as they could still move, they all quietly touched the vicinity of the defense line, and prepared to cooperate with the assault in the encirclement, and the internal and external attacks were not right, breaking the blockade of the devils!
"Baga, there is an enemy rushing in front, machine gun fire!" In the midst of the artillery fire, a devil ensign suddenly saw a figure constantly passing through the ruins, and immediately shouted!
"Da Da Da ......"
The heavy machine gun hiding behind the broken wall opened fire quickly!
Tongues of fire erupted from the shooting holes cut out of the broken wall, and bullets whizzed out, like meteors, flying in the night!
One soldier was caught off guard and killed, and the other fighters quickly lay down and were crushed into the ruins in front of the defensive line, unable to move!
"Grenadier shots, take out these sneak attackers!" The devil's eyes lit up, and he continued to shout, he wants to destroy these sneak attackers!
"Da Da Da ......"
Before his subordinates could move, a string of gunshots rang out from behind him to their ears!
The heavy machine gun instantly fell silent, and the machine gunner and the sub-shooter fell to the firing position together, and several shooting holes appeared in the back, and blood gushed out like a fountain of blood, and his life was lost in an instant!
The second lieutenant subconsciously threw himself on the ground, and a bullet pierced the barely broken wall just right next to his scalp and dodged the fatal blow!
His face suddenly turned pale, and he shouted in a lost voice: "Baga, the enemy is attacking, and the Eighth Route Army has touched behind us!" ”
"A detachment turns around and counterattacks and blocks them!"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Before the order was finished, an explosion sounded!
A grenade emitting white smoke smashed right at his feet!
In the violent explosion, the two feet were blown off in an instant, and then they were blown away!
The pain in the heart of the leg directly fainted the second lieutenant!
Four devil grenadiers, two machine guns, two grenades, and no sound!
"Kill the past, kill the little devil in front, and cover the main force to kill it!" The commander of the garrison regiment behind the defense line who sneaked up on the devil shouted!
Originally, there were still four squads under his hands, and they were surrounded by devils for a whole afternoon, and now there are two left!
The huge casualties made the company commander angry and heartbroken, and he couldn't wait to kill all the little devils in the city!
finally waited until it was dark, the battle situation was favorable to the Eighth Route Army, and as a company commander, he would not let go of this opportunity for revenge no matter what!
With a box cannon in his hand, under the cover of two riflemen, he kept approaching the devil's line!
In the ruins, a wounded little devil had just raised his rifle and was ready to resist to the end, and he saw it!
You're welcome, raise the box cannon and set it on fire!
Five bullets flew towards the devil in a fan, and the sound of gunfire and screams came together, hitting the target!
The riflemen were not idle either!
The capture of the ammunition depot in Lingqiu City plus the capture of the battlefield, the garrison regiment has harvested at least two hundred and fifty Wang Ba box pistols!
Although they are not as good as German-made box guns, as long as they do not malfunction, there is no problem with melee combat and self-defense!
Hong Linfeng didn't waste these pistols, and equipped all the troops in one go!
Coupled with the pistols that the garrison regiment was originally equipped with, the remaining hundreds of people in the garrison regiment have already reached the standard of one pistol per person!
Therefore, each soldier of the garrison regiment on the battlefield is equipped with two guns, and the enemy is far away with a rifle, and when he is close, he uses a pistol, and there is no need to save bullets at all!
There are corpses everywhere in the ruins, some devils and some of the Eighth Route Army!
In the fierce battle, both the enemy and the enemy rarely have the opportunity to clean up the battlefield, so these corpses must have a lot of ammunition on them!
As long as you can live on the battlefield, you can replenish ammunition everywhere, and replenish wherever you fight!
Soon, a gap was opened in the defensive line that the Japanese had been building for several hours!
Dozens of Eighth Route Army poured out of the encirclement through the gap and quickly disappeared into the ruins!
Under the cover of night, the soldiers went around to other positions of the devil's defense line in multiple ways, cooperated with the frontal assault troops to completely defeat the devil's defense line, and then forced the little devil out of Lingqiu City!
At the Japanese headquarters in the south of the city, as soon as the guns rang out, Major General Sakai was alarmed!
Hearing the sound of gunfire everywhere in the city, the sudden flames became more and more intense, and there was no meaning of ending at all, and he was also anxious!
Shaozo had an experience last night and immediately suggested!
"General, I suggest that the troops retreat immediately!"
"Last night, the Eighth Route Army used this method of fighting to inflict a lot of casualties on us, and then forced us out of Lingqiu City!"
"Judging from the sound of gunfire, even if we destroyed all the houses near the defense line, it did not stop the Eighth Route Army from approaching our defense line!"
"Once the Eighth Route Army and our troops are mixed together, the troops in the city will not be able to withdraw if they want to, so they can only fight with the Eighth Route Army and fight to the death!"
Major General Sakai did not speak, holding a telescope and continuing to look at the battlefield!
Just retreating like this, everyone will be unwilling!
Even if the troops lost more than 2,000 people yesterday afternoon because of the untimely retreat, there was a bloody lesson in front of him, and reason told him that he had to retreat!
But when the matter really came to his eyes, and when it was his turn to make a decision, he couldn't open his mouth all of a sudden!
Once this order is given, it means that all the gains of the day will be in vain, and the casualties of the troops will be in vain!
"Sir, the defense line has been cut open by the Eighth Route Army, and at least fifty Eighth Route Army have rushed out of the encirclement!" A second lieutenant suddenly rushed to the head of the city, and reported from afar, his face full of nervousness!
"Sir, the eastern defense line was also attacked by the Eighth Route Army, and it was also attacked by the Eighth Route Army inside and outside, so it was almost impossible to hold it!" Another communications soldier rushed over and reported!
"Sir, the northern defense line has been broken through by the Eighth Route Army!"
"The defenders of the defensive line are already fighting with the Eighth Route Army!"
"Retreat ......"
One bad news after another finally forced Major General Sakai to make up his mind!
With a raised eyebrow, he ordered: "The troops all abandon the defensive line and retreat outside the city." Everyone quit Lingqiu City! ”
Major General Sakai is guarding the city, waiting for the troops to withdraw!
The gunfire in the city was so dense that he felt furious when he heard it!
If you don't see the troops safely withdrawn in front of your eyes, you won't be at ease if you say anything!
You know, the troops on the line are all the mobile troops you can mobilize!
If they have an accident and are defeated, before the arrival of follow-up reinforcements, in addition to passive defense, he will not be able to fight an attack, even if the fighter plane is in front of him!
"Boom, boom...... Dadada......"
Ten minutes have passed, and the sound of gunfire has not yet weakened!
Half an hour passed, and the scattered troops that had successfully withdrawn to the south gate added up to only one infantry squadron, and the gunfire in the city continued, and the combat range became larger and larger, no longer limited to the perimeter of the defensive line!
At this time, the fool also understood: the troops still remaining in the city have been dragged by the Eighth Route Army!
Major General Sakai kept his face calm and did not speak, but his heart had already turned up a monstrous wave!
The difficulty of the garrison was once again beyond his imagination, the battle was like this, they could still fight back, and the imperial army was defeated and retreated, and it was impossible to see that they were a remnant army that was about to be wiped out and was fighting the trapped beasts!
Taking a deep breath, he decisively ordered: "We also retreat!" ”
"Order the troops in the city who are still fighting to find a way out of the battle. Withdraw from Lingqiu City! ”
"If you really can't withdraw, then fight, give full play to the combat effectiveness of the imperial army, and even if you die in battle, you must kill more Eighth Route Army before you die!"
Outside Lingqiu City, Li Hao was startled when he saw the devils constantly pouring out of Lingqiu City!
I thought that the devil was aware of his purpose and took the initiative to attack himself!
But soon that concern was gone!
"Regiment commander, the devils have gone out of the city with more than 500 people, many of them are technical troops, only half of the infantry, and the defensive direction is facing the city!" Xiao Yuan reported!
Li Hao's eyes lit up and he reacted: "I understand!" ”
"This must be the work of the Chief of Staff, they have forced the little devil out of Lingqiu City again!"
"Contact the artillery battalion immediately, first cover the devil's assembly area with artillery fire, and fight a five-minute artillery attack!"
"Then the artillery fire extends one hundred and fifty meters, and it will be aimed at the head of the city for another three minutes and then retreat!"
"This is the fat meat that the little devil sent to our mouths, if you don't eat it, you won't eat it for nothing!"
"As soon as the shelling stops, we will kill in a straggler line, the troops can only advance and not retreat, all the way directly over the city wall into Lingqiu City, along the way we can kill a few devils, and strive to severely damage the more than 500 puppet army in front of us!"
Major General Sakai is also among the more than 500 devils, and the guards are guarding the surroundings, forming a safe area!
Not surprisingly, this is Sakai's temporary headquarters tonight.
The conditions were very rudimentary, and there was not even a tent set up in a hurry, but it was better to be safe!
On a table piled up with several ammunition boxes, the Lingqiu City Defense Map is spread on it!
Sakai didn't show any dissatisfaction, and just lay down next to him to study the map, his brows furrowed.
Just now at the head of the city, he once again realized the cunning and toughness of his opponents, in order to completely kill them tomorrow and take revenge, he had to calm down and re-study his opponents and formulate more foolproof tactical tactics!
"Woo woo woo ......"
Suddenly, a string of cannonballs screeched across the sky!
The face of the artillery staff officer next to him turned pale at that time, and he shouted in a lost voice: "It's mountain artillery, the shells are flying towards us, protect the brigade commander, hide ......."
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The explosion came very quickly and directly interrupted the reminder of the artillery staff!
Fortunately, the captain of the guard reacted quickly, rushed behind Major General Sakai, and threw him to the ground regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, and the two of them fell together and ate!
