At this time, Mingguang City was also in flames, and the devils in the city also escaped from the city and were wiped out outside the north gate, and several regiments of people, except for occupying Mingguang City and cleaning up the battlefield, were also waiting for the orders of the brigade headquarters and division headquarters in the same place.

To deal with the devils of two squadrons, it is naturally not necessary to have too many troops, in fact, one regiment is enough, but it is not good if there are too many people, the troops are crowded together, and they cannot be used, it is very dangerous, and the devils may hurt people with one shot.

Seeing this situation, the 113th Division of the 51st Army also reacted immediately, the 673rd Regiment stayed in Mingguang City as a reserve to clear the remnants of the enemy and extinguish the fire, and the 678th Regiment marched to the west of the Mingguang River to get in touch with the 31st Army, because now there is also a ping-pong fight over there.

There were two regiments left, the 677th Regiment surrounded the devils, and the 674th Regiment stood by in place, closely guarding the south and flanks and rear, staring at the possible reinforcements of the devils.

Seeing that time was passing and it was almost dawn, the squadron of these two devils still couldn't be captured, but the commander of the 113th Division, Zhou was in a hurry.

You must know that when it comes to daytime, it is the world of devils, and there is such a big movement in Mingguang City here, and the devil wing and division headquarters in Chuzhou will naturally not know it.

If you still can't destroy these two devil squadrons before the arrival of daylight tomorrow, you can only give up, and by that time, the devil's planes and artillery will definitely come.

The Chinese army has almost no way to take them, only to hide.

We Chinese are afraid of artillery, and devils are also people, and we are also afraid, since people can't shoot down, then use artillery to bombard, and the division commander gave an order, mobilized a few mountain cannons that had just attacked the city, and pulled them over.

It's a pity that the 120 howitzers in the city were burned by the fire, and they seemed to be burned out, anyway, the rubber wheels under the gun rack were burned off, and they couldn't be dragged at once.

Even if it is dragged over, no one will use it, in fact, there is no need to drag it, you can hit it outside the city in the city, the main thing is that no one will use it.

Although the few devil artillery captured in the city, although they did not kill them, they still dare not use them, who can guarantee that they will not hit the positions of the Chinese army.

Besides, in the dark night, long-range artillery is very difficult to operate, and it is difficult to measure accurate data in terms of ranging, without accurate data, the shells are like stones thrown around, and there is almost no effect.

Because of this, Division Commander Zhou had to ask someone to bring in the mountain artillery just now, although the 75 mountain artillery is not as powerful as the 120 howitzer, but when it comes to the artillery bombardment, it is enough for the devil to eat a pot.

There are still dozens of shells left in these mountain guns, and the commander of the artillery battalion directly under the division is pulling his face bitterly, not wanting to pull them over to fight, you know, as soon as these dozens of shells are knocked out, the entire artillery battalion will have no shells, and these guns will be heavy vases.

The entire artillery battalion will be a heavy burden, give hundreds of people food and drink, and don't give them a fight, what do you let other brother troops think, they can only be dismantled and sent to other units.

So the commander of this artillery battalion is distressed by the shells on the one hand, and his brothers who feel sorry for the entire battalion on the other, and it is estimated that he is also a little selfish, and his own battalion commander position.

So he was extremely reluctant, but the division commander didn't care so much now, but he also added that when the shells were finished, he would go to the top to ask for it, and if he didn't get it, he would go to find it, and the artillery battalion would not be disbanded anyway.

These cannons and artillery are the treasures of the division headquarters, and no division commander is willing to disband unless it is absolutely necessary.

The division commander gave reassurance, and the artillery battalion pulled the artillery over, and as soon as the artillery came, the troops besieging the devil's mountain were boiling.

Although the old mountain artillery of the 113th Division is antique, it is also a cannon after all, and as a result, a few cannons went down, and several big gaps were blown open on the devil's mountain, and the besieging troops rushed up in an instant like a tide.

……

Lao Dan's side was rescued, Niu Gu also had some good luck, just when Niu Gu's two platoons were surrounded by a squadron of devils and had no escape, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded near the direction of Wancheng in the east.

Hearing the gunfire of the Chinese rifle and the explosion of the M24 grenade, Niu Gu shouted happily: "Brothers, we are saved, it is the brothers of the 31st Army who are here." ”

It was really the people of the 135th Division of the 31st Army who came, because they had been contacted during the day, and when they arrived, the people of the 31st Army had not seen Niu Gu come over.

Then I heard the sound of gunfire in front of me, and there was the sound of a snapping 38 rifle, and it was estimated that they were intercepted by the devil. A regiment under the 135th Division immediately sent a battalion of men to meet it.

The gunfire that Niu Gu heard was from the vanguard of this battalion.

The devil originally bullied the cow and they were few, and he wanted to avenge the baggage team, so he bit the cow and they didn't let go, wanting to gather and annihilate them quickly.

Therefore, even if they see Niu Gu and give up the looted materials, they must catch up, even if they are about to chase to the side of the 31st Army garrison of Mingguanghe, they must bite like mad dogs.

As a result, they suffered this time, and the strength and firepower of the vanguard battalion of the 135th Division were obviously very strong, which made the devils unbearable all of a sudden.

If it were in the daytime, a Japanese squadron of nearly 200 people would definitely not be afraid of four or five hundred men in a battalion of the national army, and even be able to win in battle.

But at night, there is still no such certainty, there are too many accidents in night battles and melee combat, and the side with more people will have a lot of advantages.

Moreover, the Japanese squadron, because it was ordered to pursue, urgently assembled in the middle of the night, and did not bring any heavy firepower, not even heavy machine guns, but only squad machine guns and grenadiers.

As long as the Japanese army does not have heavy firepower, its combat power is higher than that of China's elite troops, and as long as the national army is superior in numbers, it is basically not afraid.

Because of this, the national army likes to fight night battles with devils the most, and only in this way can the gap between the heavy firepower of the Japanese army be eliminated.

Of course, the vanguard battalion of the 135th Division did not bring heavy firepower tonight, and the heavy firepower of the battalion-level combat units of the Chinese troops also ordered heavy machine guns, and the best elite of the lineage may be equipped with mortars, but there are not many of them.

Therefore, this battalion did not bring heavy machine guns, but it could not bear to have more people than a squadron of devils, so once the hand-to-hand combat was completed, the numerical advantage would immediately turn into a victory.

Besides, this Japanese squadron was the same as the two squadrons besieging Lao Dan and them in the south of Mingguang City, in order to encircle the opponent, they spread their own forces very thinly.

As a result, as soon as he was hit by an external force, he immediately broke through, and Niu Gu naturally did not let go of this opportunity, and immediately led the remaining more than a row of people to fight back.

Moreover, Niu Gu was even more courageous, and did not lead people and the people of the vanguard battalion of the 135th Division to attack the devils inside and outside, but launched an attack in the direction of the retreat of the devils in the east.

Niu Gu's idea is very simple, that is, to disrupt the habit of quickly huddling together to seize the high ground after the devil encounters a sudden attack.
