Chapter 879: The War Is Burning

The little devils saw that the castle tower was in front of them, and one by one they rushed forward like sharks smelling blood.

But it's a pity that the little devil was defeated by the new regiment several times in a row, and he also suffered heavy losses.

Of course, this battle was not the same as it had been against the Okano Brigade and the 59th Wing, and although the new regiment had the upper hand, it could not be compared to the two times in terms of terrain.

Therefore, when the battle has been fought until now, they have also suffered certain casualties, but because of their advantage and a certain geographical advantage, their casualties are much weaker than those of the little devils.

After the previous two battles, especially the ambush of the 59th Wing of the Japanese Army, these recruits in the new regiment can be regarded as Kaifeng's steel knives, although they have not completely transformed into veterans, but at least they are not stage frightened.

When they saw their companions die tragically by their side, their first thought was not to flee, but to kill these little devils to avenge them.

There is no longer fear in my heart, but anger.

Night is falling.

The dark night shrouded the battlefield in a layer of fog, which not only covered the little devils, but also covered the new regiment of officers and soldiers above the city tower.

"Artillery brigade, bombard me! Bombardment! ”

Seeing the tragic death of the Great Japanese Imperial Army under the enemy's guns, Guanyu was furious and immediately gave the order to attack with all his might.

"Boom!"

A Type 97 infantry artillery shell fell on the tower, and half of the entire tower was immediately destroyed.

Fortunately, Yang Yun knew that the city tower would definitely become the target of the little devil's focus on gathering fire, so he did not garrison the city tower.

Yes, the little devil's cannon seemed to have powerful firepower, but it actually did not cause many casualties to the new regiment.

The little devil has artillery, and the new regiment also has it, don't look at the small number of people in the new regiment, but it is not weaker than the little devil in terms of artillery configuration, and it even exceeds it faintly.

It's just that because the night is shrouded, I can't see the specific distribution of the little devils at all, so I can only take the position where the fire tongue is most vigorous as the target of attack.

Such a choice is undoubtedly the most correct, because the position where the tongue of fire spits the most is not where the little devil's heavy troops are located, or the little devil's machine gun position.

"Your Excellency, General!"

A little devil Shao Zuo braved the rain of bullets and ran back to the side of the brigade commander's hall, because of the continuous gunfire around him, the cannon sounded in unison, he almost pulled his neck, and raised the sound to the maximum.

"What's wrong?"

"Your Excellency General, the gate in front of you doesn't seem to be closed!"

"Nani? Are you sure? ”

"Hay! Humble, very sure! ”

"Is it because the city gate position has been broken, and the enemy has not had time to close the city gate?"

Guan Yu lowered his head and muttered, as if he wanted to understand the reason for this, and immediately looked happy, and ordered in a loud voice: "Infantry cover, cavalry brigade charge!" ”

"Hay!"

The execution of the little devil's battlefield is almost outrageous, and as soon as the order of the brigade commander Guan Yu is issued, the little devil's side has already begun to deploy.

In a short time, the cavalry brigade was ready to go.

When the infantry and artillery had increased their firepower to the maximum, they went straight to the west gate of Yongcheng under the cover of darkness.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom—"

With the instantaneous light generated by the explosion of the cannonball, Yang Yun sensed the little devil's intentions, but he just twitched the corners of his mouth and didn't care too much.

"Huh! Do you really think that the gates are wide open because it is too late to close? ”

The Little Devil Cavalry Brigade has two cavalry squadrons and one machine gun squad.

Each cavalry squadron had 134 horses and 144 officers and men.

At this moment, more than two hundred war horses carrying two packs of more than two little devil cavalry, under the cover of powerful firepower, have rushed to the west gate of Yongcheng like a gallop.

In the process of charging, although some of the officers and soldiers of the new regiment were killed, most of the strength was still preserved.

And because they had already rushed under the city walls, the new regiment of officers and soldiers above the walls could no longer pose an effective threat to them.

Therefore, these little devil cavalry rushed towards the cave with unscrupulous horses, and shouted disgusting bird language in their mouths.

"Kill the chicken and give it!"

"Kill the chicken and give it!"

……

The depth of the building is only more than ten meters, and if the little devil war horse runs wildly with all his might, almost a charge can rush into the city.

However, at this moment, a dense burst of gunfire suddenly sounded on the other side of the cave without warning.

This was followed by the neighing of war horses, and the howl of wolves in coordination with the ghosts of the little devils.

"Yaga! We've got it! ”

The dozen or so little devil cavalry who rushed into the cave of the building were all killed, and the rest of the little devil cavalry saw this, and they didn't dare to continue to charge for a while, so they could only dismount and hide in front of the city tower.

In this way, although they cannot be attacked by the officers and men of the new regiment, they cannot threaten the officers and men of the new regiment.

Soon, the news reached the ears of the brigade commander Guan Yu, which made him furious.

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, in my humble opinion, since the opening of the enemy's city gate is their conspiracy, why don't we plan it?"

"What do you mean by that?"

Guanyu looked at the chief of staff Akasaka Zuizumi on the side, frowned and asked.

"The cavalry of our Imperial Japanese Army could not rush through the cave, not because of their strength, but because the cave was too narrow for cavalry charges.

In addition, cavalry is different from infantry, cavalry is expensive in speed, but lacks firepower; And if you use infantry to charge, with sufficient fire support, you will definitely be able to easily rush into the city.

Once there is a vanguard to control the building, our army can attack Yongcheng, and when the time comes, it will not be easy to annihilate the enemy forces in the city? ”

"Yo Si! Akasaka-kun, your analysis makes a lot of sense! ”

Guan Yu's face was happy, but he quickly frowned and asked, "It's just that my infantry doesn't have the speed of cavalry, how can I approach the city tower smoothly?" ”

"Your Excellency, this question is actually very simple!"

"How?"

"Now that night is falling, we can use the cover of night to outflank us from both sides, so that although it will be a little wasted time, we can ensure a smooth approach to the tower.

But the premise is that we must involve the enemy's firepower head-on and prevent them from having a chance to react! ”

"Yo Xi!"

Guan Yu nodded and continued: "This question is very simple, after this period of observation, I found that although the enemy's firepower is fierce, it doesn't seem to have many troops, and it shouldn't be a problem to involve them!" ”

"In this way, I am willing to personally lead the charge of the team!"

"Yo Si! Akasaka-kun, you can charge with confidence, mine will give you a sweep in the back, if you break through Yongcheng, yours will be the first credit! ”

"Hay!"

Chief of Staff Akasaka Saizumi bowed in response, and a cannonball exploded in the distance, and the light produced by it reflected on his resolute cheeks, which looked even more solemn.
