The sudden sound of artillery bombardment in the south of the city undoubtedly deepened the worries of the garrison defenders. In these years, the size and strength of the rebel forces that can have artillery will not be too weak. This also means that someone is eyeing Luzhou City.

Fortunately, there are not many people living in the city, except for a few local tyrants and inferior gentry who have taken refuge in the little devils, and there are also family members of the puppet army. As for the task force that launched the shelling, they did not have to worry too much about accidental injuries.

After several rounds of shelling, many houses in the southern part of the city were also destroyed. Although it didn't kill many little devils, it still injured a lot of Japanese puppet soldiers. Waiting for the artillery squadron in the city to counterattack, the little devils have the time to treat those wounded.

Compared with the injured little devils, they can be properly treated. Most of the wounded puppet soldiers can only accept their fate and find a way to heal them themselves. Under normal circumstances, the little devil is reluctant to waste precious medicine on the treatment of ordinary puppet soldiers.

Perhaps because of this, many puppet soldiers are reluctant to die when fighting. Because these puppet soldiers know that once they are wounded on the battlefield, their lives are over. If you don't get treatment, you may be kicked out of the puppet army.

People who have no use value, little devils will not want it!

Looking at the wounded little devil being carried away, the puppet army who was also wounded, the little devil who was responsible for reining in the wounded soldiers pretended not to see it, and many puppet soldiers couldn't help but complain: "M's, they really don't treat us as human beings!" ”

"When did they treat us like human beings? Never mind! Bear with me! When the fight really starts, let's stay away. If you really want to be killed, then it's okay. If you are beaten to death, then it is called suffering! ”

Differential treatment may lead to complaints from the puppet army, and the little devil commander must also know about this kind of thing. But in the eyes of the Japanese army, their original intention in forming the Imperial Allied Army was to let these Imperial Allied Army serve as thugs and cannon fodder for them.

As long as the officers of the Imperial Allied Army are encircled, ordinary soldiers don't care at all. In the final analysis, for these soldiers of the Imperial Allied Army who accepted the recruitment, many Japanese soldiers also looked down on them, feeling that these soldiers were spineless.

Usually staying in the city, ordinary little devil soldiers can insult the officers of the Imperial Alliance Army at will. This difference in rank also made the status of the Imperial Allied Army even more awkward. This may also be the reason why the puppet army often rebels and revolts.

Knowing that the shelling outside the city had stopped, the commander of the Japanese garrison stationed in Luzhou City also said seriously: "Gentlemen, what do you think of the previous shelling?" What do you think needs to be done in view of the current situation? ”

As the commander of the garrison of a city, the power of the Japanese army is naturally not small. But when it comes to operational analysis, Dazuo is still willing to discuss and analyze with the Zhongzuo Shaozo under his command. The truth of a person's short-mindedness, Dazuo still knows.

What's more, at the end of this day, the situation in Anhui Province has become extremely strange, and the Japanese army always feels that a big storm is about to sweep the entire Anhui Province. But when he thought about it, he thought it was unlikely. In Anhui Province, the main force of the national army can no longer be seen.

Where there is the main force of the national army, there is also the main division of the Japanese army to contain it. In Anhui Province, the Japanese army deployed a lot of troops. But at present, there are frequent turmoil in Chucheng, and the territory of Luzhou is not peaceful, which is indeed worth vigilance.

In the face of Dazuo's inquiry, the captain of Zhongzuo soon said: "Your Excellency Dazuo, our vigilant troops have checked the enemy situation on the periphery of the city defense, and have not found any signs of a large army attacking the city. Is it possible to send troops out of the city to reconnoitre? ”

"The situation outside the city is unknown, and if you rashly send troops out of the city to reconnoitre, it is very likely to be ambushed!"

Regarding the suggestion of sending troops out of the city to reconnoitre, Dazuo still chose to refuse. In this Dazuo's opinion, no matter whether there are ambushes outside the city, as long as he guards Luzhou City, there will be no big mistake.

Moreover, he had just lost two squadrons of troops in the afternoon, and now the city was under shelling again. This shows that the attackers lurking outside the city are capable of annihilating one of his squadrons. Send troops to reconnoitre, you can't send a brigade out, right?

There are many troops sent, and the enemy hiding in the shadows does not come out at all. The number of troops sent is small, and there is a high probability that they will be ambushed by unidentified forces outside the city. Out of this concern, the Japanese army refused to send a reconnaissance force, which was also a very wise choice.

When discussing whether it was necessary to send troops to reinforce Chucheng, an officer soon said: "Your Excellency, if you want to stabilize the situation in Chucheng, you must send at least one infantry brigade over, and too few reinforcements will not play any role at all." ”

Too few troops were sent to make any difference. If you want to stabilize the chaotic situation in Chucheng, you need to send at least one infantry brigade over. And at this moment, in Luzhou City, there is only one infantry wing.

After an infantry brigade is transferred, what about the security in Luzhou? If there is nothing wrong in Luzhou, it would not hurt to dispatch an infantry brigade over in a short time. The problem is, now that there are traces of the enemy outside the city of Luzhou, how dare the defenders in the city divide their troops?

"Can you let Su Province send troops to reinforce Chucheng?"

"This is a skip-the-line report! Who will bear the responsibility? Never mind! Regarding the situation in Chucheng, for the time being, the defenders in all parts of Chucheng were ordered to strictly defend themselves and not to attack without permission.

When the special high school investigates the situation clearly, we will find a way to suppress those rebels. The most important thing at the moment is to find out the rebels in the territory. If we don't wipe out these rebels, we'll continue to be in chaos in the areas we control! ”

Sending reinforcements from the Soviet Province could not be done at all with the power of the Japanese army. Even if reinforcements need to be mobilized, such a matter can only be reported to the division commander, who will report to the dispatch army headquarters. Dazuo reports directly, which is a leap forward!

Although the situation is complicated at this stage, the Japanese army still feels that it is not yet time to alarm the front-line troops. If they fail to control the local situation and affect the operation of the main forces on the front, then he needs to bear even more responsibility.

When the Japanese army Dazuo convened his subordinates to discuss the matter, Hu Biao, who was staying in the temporary camp outside the city, ordered the team members who had no combat mission to start resting. As for the battle plan to attack Luzhou City, Hu Biao believed that Xu Sandao would complete it very well.

The main forces of the task force began to rest, waiting for the follow-up combat mission. The reconnaissance detachment and sniper detachment lurking outside Luzhou City are still active. After the shelling in the south of the city ended, the reconnaissance detachment moved to the east of the city.

After setting up the position of the artillery, Xu Sandao, who looked at the time, immediately said: "All of them are there, rest for two hours!" Two hours later, the shelling resumed. Rest in peace, there is a sniper squad to keep watch for us! ”

"Yes, Squadron Leader!"

For the fighters of the reconnaissance detachment, they have become accustomed to resting whenever and wherever they want. This kind of rest can also ensure that they still maintain sufficient physical strength and spirit when performing reconnaissance missions.

While the reconnaissance detachment began to rest, the snipers of the sniper detachment began to become active. Around the city of Luzhou, bullets from the gun were fired from time to time. In most cases, a little devil is killed when a gunshot is fired.

Listening to the cold gunshots coming from time to time outside the city, the little devils and puppet soldiers who stayed in the city naturally didn't dare to rest at ease. Many little devils who stayed on the city tower were even more nervous watching the night outside the city wall.

"Yaga! How many marksmen are there outside the city? They don't attack, they specialize in cold shooting, what are their intentions? ”

Faced with the cold gun attack of the sniper team, the little devils who stayed on duty on the city wall also had a headache. Compared with the snipers who hide in the shadows, these officers and soldiers who are on guard are in the open and high, and they will be killed if they are not careful.

Even if the casualties are not large, this threat hidden under the nose still makes the little devil feel uncomfortable. There were even little devil machine gunners who couldn't help but look at the corners of the city that were blazing and pulled the trigger of the heavy machine gun in their hands.

For the counterattack of the defenders of the city wall, most of the snipers who hide in the shadows and hunt the little devils on the city wall are not very worried. Although the heavy machine gun has a long range, the little devil machine gunner also shoots blindly when the light is blind.

And most of the snipers who participated in the sniper tonight will shoot and change places. By the time the heavy machine gun fired, the place where the previous snipers were lurking was long gone. The bullets that hit that vicinity were naturally all wasted.

Even in the face of these angry heavy machine gunners, the snipers who are hiding outside the city and are responsible for sniping will lock on to the heavy machine gunners who are shooting. In the eyes of the snipers, the little devil who shot outside the city clearly wanted to be a live target!

Listening to the messy gunshots coming from near the city wall, how could the Japanese puppet army staying in the city rest in peace! Knowing that the attackers outside the city only fired cold guns, the defenders in the city still did not dare to open the city gate casually.

"Eight Gyalu! When dawn comes, we'll be sure to get these damn guys out and wipe them out! ”

Perhaps it was known that the searchlights on the city walls provided a lighting reference for attackers outside the city. Even the little devils who were in charge of guarding the city did not dare to stand under the lights easily. As a result, the sniper team also found fewer targets to shoot.

Taking this opportunity, the squad leader of the sniper team also said in a timely manner: "Rest in groups!" While alerting the movements of the little devils on the city wall, if the team members on duty see an opportunity, then shoot! Let the little devils know that we're still outside the city! ”

"Yes, squad leader!"

When the sniper detachment reduced the number of snipers, the Japanese puppet army on guard in the city was also slightly relieved. Just when they felt that they could finally take a break. The reconnaissance detachment, which had already rested for two hours, went into action again.

Looking at Luzhou City, which was shrouded in silent night, Xu Sandao, who woke up, also smiled and said: "The old rule, one box of shells per person, transfer after the fight." Let's move on to the next place! ”

"Yes, Squadron Leader!"

When mortar shells fell on the city wall in the east of the city, the Japanese puppet soldiers who stayed on the city wall to guard were instantly awakened and even quickly ran away. Countless 'enemy attacks' sounded among the Japanese puppet army on the city wall.

As Hu Biao said, from the moment the task force stayed in Luzhou, these Japanese puppet troops in the city did not want to sleep steadily. And tonight, it was just their first sleepless night. Later, there will be more bitter fruits waiting for them to taste slowly!
