Chapter 663: Siege

Just after the special operators had done everything, the devil finally appeared. Although they are not good at night battles, especially the 140th Division and the 157th Division, which have almost no experience in night combat, they are forced by the situation in front of them to be really worrisome, and they may not be able to catch the main force tonight, and they should appear in Quzhou City tomorrow, and by then, it will be too late for anything. Therefore, they had to attack overnight, and even retreated in the battle just now, and they did not have a long rest.

Probably the Japanese army had already reconnoitred and the mountain had been evacuated, and a few side tricycles were on the road with lights on, and the crutches in the side buckets were still sweeping a few bullets to the grass and woods on both sides from time to time.

Immediately followed by a small squad of Japanese troops, this is the advance squad of devils, but the special combat team did not intend to let them go, after all, there are only a few dozen people, and it is unrealistic to fight a large force, but it is a matter of minutes to deal with this kind of small force.

When several side three-wheeled Japanese soldiers entered the field of vision, Zhang Xiangwu decisively issued an attack order, and only three remote-controlled bombs exploded, and all the side three-wheelers of the Japanese army were scrapped, and all the people on the car returned to Dongying.

Before the devil squad that followed behind could figure out the situation, dozens of AK47s swept out by the special combat team, and within a few minutes, dozens of devils were cleaned up. The sniper and demolition teams continued to stay and wait for the next batch of prey, while the operations and support teams quickly withdrew and set up the next minefield.

Soon, the sniper team at the high ground told their teammates through walkie-talkies that a large enemy force was approaching, probably a large group formation.

The fierce gunfire just now had naturally aroused the vigilance of the devils, and by the light of the moonlight, the devils searched along both sides of the road in two teams, holding their guns cautiously and looking around, like a group of rats stealing food.

After entering the minefield, the sniper team immediately opened fire, basically aiming at the officers with command knives for the devils, although the visibility at night was not very good, but the human form of the shadow was still clearly distinguished, and it was not required to eliminate a devil with every shot, mainly to attract the attention of the devils through shooting, so that they could hide in the favorable terrain on both sides of the road, and then it was time for the demolition team to name them one by one.

The successive explosions caused heavy casualties to the devils, and the sniper team attracted strafing and bombing from the devils' machine guns and even artillery shells because the flames of the muzzle of the Mauser 98K guns were more obvious. But almost after a shot, they will move immediately, the devils are basically busy in vain, and this is what the special combat team wants, and when the devils start to search this area on a large scale, the special combat team members are already waiting for them in the next section.

In this way, the cycle continued, and in the course of a whole night, the Japanese army only advanced a dozen kilometers, and the vanguard led by Qin Feng was already a hundred miles away from them.

It was bright and the team, which had been running all night, took refuge in the woods for a while, because Japanese reconnaissance planes had already appeared in the sky.

Qin Feng ordered everyone to hurry up and eat some food and drink some water to replenish their physical strength, and the troops must continue to advance, and they must reach the outside of Quzhou City before noon.

There is no need to think about cooking on a fire, and there is no rice in the army, but fortunately, Chizhou and Huangshan were attacked, and there are still canned food in Japan, which is not as delicious as imagined, but it is already very good to be able to fill your stomach.

The soldiers were eating deliciously, but Ye Lili couldn't get out of her mouth when she held the can, and she was even very disgusted by the taste.

In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army's canned beef was genuine, but after the middle and late periods, the canned beef also began to be watered, and more were made of cow blood and coarse grains, and there was no problem in supplementing calories to satisfy hunger, and the taste was really poor.

Ye Lili's embarrassment had already fallen into Qin Feng's eyes, only to see him smile slightly, take out five eggs from his pocket like a trick, hand them to Ye Lili and say, "It's cooked, eat it quickly!" ”

Ye Lili stared at her beautiful big eyes, and immediately swallowed her saliva, not caring where it came from, just glanced left and right, and said, "Isn't this okay?" ”

Qin Feng stuffed the egg in her hand and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, who made you a woman, no one said yours?" ”

Ye Lili was suddenly full of happiness, and immediately took the egg, not caring about the appearance of eating, which provoked Qin Feng to only scold her for being a hungry ghost and reincarnating, and hurriedly handed her a kettle, and the love made Ye Lili very useful.

After asking the new Ninth Division behind, and learning that they were only a dozen miles away from the main army, Qin Feng ordered them to catch up immediately. At the same time, the vanguard continued to march through the mountains and forests, and there was still a distance of nearly 40 miles from Quzhou, and they had to race against time. It was only one reason to catch up with the Japanese army, and last night's battle briefing had already been sent, and the Ninth Division on the middle road had only more than 2,000 people left, almost all of whom were wounded, and Ding Chenglai's troops on the left and Liu Jian's troops on the right had suffered heavy casualties, and if a large number of wounded soldiers were not treated in time, it was estimated that they would all die on the road, so it was urgent to take Quzhou.

Although the roar of the enemy's planes could be heard circling overhead, the soldiers overcame all the obstacles and headed south, and finally reached the outside of Quzhou at one o'clock in the afternoon, although a little later than expected, but within the acceptable range.

After a short rest, and when all the three armies arrived at the designated position, Qin Feng ordered the troops to attack the city immediately from the east, west, and north.

Quzhou has a long history and profound cultural heritage. It is located in the west of Zhejiang Province, the upper reaches of the Qiantang River, the west end of the Jinhua Quzhou Basin, south of Nanping, Fujian, west of Shangrao, Jiangxi, north of Huangshan, Anhui, and east of Jinhua, Lishui and Hangzhou in the province. "In the upper reaches of the right of Zhejiang, control the elbows and armpits of Poyang, control the throat of Fujian and Yue, and publicize the momentum." Sichuan and Lu will be the thoroughfare of the four provinces. It is a marginal central city in Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangxi and Anhui provinces, and its geographical location is extremely important.

Although there is no sharp weapon for attacking the city, artillery, but the momentum is huge, and the five or sixty thousand soldiers of the three divisions are waving their flags and shouting to rush forward from three directions, which is indeed somewhat deterrent.

At this time, the defenders of Quzhou were the 14th Brigade of the Japanese Army, and the brigade commander, Major General Yoshiharu Ozaki. The 10th Brigade of the Imperial Allied Army was mixed into a brigade, and the brigade commander was Major General Zhang Taigao.

The 14th Mixed Brigade has two wings and six infantry brigades, with a total strength of more than 6,500 people, but they are stationed in Quzhou and Shangrao, and each has a wing.

The mixed brigade of the Imperial Association Army has five infantry brigades under its jurisdiction, with a total strength of more than 5,500 people, which are also stationed in Quzhou and Shangrao.

In this way, their strength in Quzhou at this time was only more than 6,000 people, plus the Imperial Allied Army and Japanese squads gathered from nearby counties, the total strength did not exceed 10,000.
