Chapter 239: Scared of the Courage

The grenade bomb hit the wooden city gate in Pingding County, and several black holes were immediately punched out of the city gate.

Originally, the gates of these counties were very strong, but the 386 Brigade of Brigade Commander Chen had conquered Pingding County before, and the previous city gates were blown up.

The quality of this temporarily installed gate is incomparable to the previous one, and the grenade shells fired by the six infantry guns have almost destroyed the city gate.

Garrisoned on the city wall are Zhu Shiqiang's puppet army troops, these puppet army units are not high in combat effectiveness, especially after experiencing the battle of Chengguan Town, these puppet troops are almost frightened.

Seeing that the city gate was punched out one by one, the puppet soldiers turned pale with fright, and they immediately lay on the ground and shot indiscriminately with the weapons in their hands.

Light and heavy machine guns, all kinds of rifles, and bullets were fired by the puppet army, and as for where they were shooting, the puppet soldiers did not know at all.

After the indiscriminate shooting stopped, the puppet soldiers looked outside in panic.

There was silence outside the city, as if there was no one at all, because the sky was a little dark, and the puppet soldiers could not observe the situation in the distance.

"Don't be fucking nervous, this is the Eighth Route Army's indiscriminate shooting, they are just scaring us. Now there are more than 10,000 Taijun besieging Sun Weiguo's independent regiment, even if Sun Weiguo is a martial artist in the sky, he is also lacking in skills. I'm staring at it with wide eyes, this Eighth Route Army doesn't have the ability to attack the county seat. ”

A puppet army battalion commander secretly glanced out of the city and didn't find any Eighth Route Army troops, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he picked out his hat with the shell gun, and he shouted loudly at the puppet soldiers.

The puppet soldiers looked at each other suspiciously, but they felt that things were not so simple.

It was at this time that the second round of fire was fired from six infantry guns.

The first time the infantry guns were fired was a test firing, and they shot very accurately.

This time, the six infantry guns deployed five grenade shots, which means that one infantry gun had to fire all five grenade shots as quickly as possible.

Six infantry guns and thirty rounds of grenades began to hit the city gate, where could the city gate, which had already been blown out of several large holes, still be able to withstand the blow of the grenade bomb.

With a "boom", when the grenade bombs exploded here at the city gate one after another, the city gate finally could not withstand the shelling and began to collapse completely.

The city gate was blown up, Pingding County had no one to rely on, and the puppet soldiers on the city wall shot indiscriminately again.

And the Japanese troops in the county town were also alarmed, and the Japanese troops knew the puppet army very well.

The Japanese felt that now that the Pingding County Independent Regiment was surrounded by the garrison corps, they would definitely not come to the county seat, so they handed over the garrison task to the puppet army, and they rested in the city, ready to devote themselves to the front-line battle at any time.

But when the Japanese officers heard the sound of artillery coming from the city gate, the Japanese troops quickly rushed to the city wall.

These Japanese all know that counting on these puppet troops to defend Pingding County is simply a fool's dream.

If there is really an Eighth Route Army attacking the county seat, I am afraid that the puppet army will even lay down its arms and surrender, but these puppet troops are completely frightened by the independent regiment.

Takano Shuichi, who was tasked with the garrison of Pingding County, immediately commanded three squadrons of more than 500 devil soldiers to rush to the city wall, and these devil soldiers immediately took over the garrison task of the puppet army.

At the same time, Takano Shuichi asked the puppet army to immediately fill sandbags and prepare to plug the gap in the city gate, while he himself looked outside with a telescope.

Seeing that there was silence outside, and there was no figure at all, Gao Yexiu's brows couldn't help frowning tightly.

"Yaga, what the hell is going on." Shuichi Takano asked with an annoyed face.

Zhu Shiqiang, the division commander of the puppet army, immediately rushed to the city wall, and in the face of Takano Shuichi's inquiry, he hurriedly found the puppet army officer guarding the city wall to answer.

"Taijun, this must be the troops of the Eighth Route Army, they must have used artillery fire from a distance, they fired dozens of shells, Taijun, I'm sure the Eighth Route Army wants to attack the county seat."

The puppet army officer looked at the bombed-out city gate, his face became unusually pale, and he said with a nervous face.

The troops of the Eighth Route Army are notoriously poorly equipped, not to mention the newly formed military region units such as the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, even if the Eighth Route Army has three divisions with regular numbers, the number of artillery in each of their divisions will not exceed double digits.

can have so many artillery, the puppet army officers don't have to think about it to know that except for Sun Weiguo's independent regiment, there will be no one else at all.

The reason why the puppet army officer was so scared was because he felt that it was Sun Weiguo's independent regiment hiding outside the city.

In the last battle in Chengguan Town, Sun Weiguo commanded the troops to bring a devastating blow to the Japanese puppet army.

Don't talk about these puppet army troops, even if it is the Japanese army under the command of Takano Shuichi, when the name Sun Weiguo is mentioned, they will be a little afraid in their hearts.

Even as soon as Takano Shuyi heard the words of Sun Weiguo's independent group, the expression on his face changed.

Sun Weiguo's command style is very bold and weird, he can do things that others can't.

If someone else's unit was attacked by more than 10,000 Japanese troops, then even if Takano Shuichi was killed, he would not believe that this army still had the ability to run to attack the county seat.

It's just that when he encountered Sun Weiguo's troops, Takano Shuichi didn't dare to make a negative judgment directly, and he also vaguely felt in his heart that the troops outside might be Sun Weiguo's independent regiment.

"Gao Ye Taijun, there are only Sun Weiguo's troops on the territory of Pingding County, even if other troops support Sun Weiguo's troops, they don't have the courage to attack the county seat, not to mention those Eighth Route Army troops, even if they are the troops of the Jin Sui Army, they will not have so many artillery."

Zhu Shiqiang listened to the report of the puppet army officer, his brows furrowed tightly, looking at Takano Shuichi in front of him, Zhu Shiqiang hurriedly reminded.

He could already make a judgment that the troops outside must be Sun Weiguo's independent regiment, and even Zhu Shiqiang felt that maybe Sun Weiguo was outside the city.

After listening to Zhu Shiqiang's words, Takano Shuichi became more cautious, and he didn't dare to delay in the slightest.

Takano Shuichi quickly dispatched a communications corps to the garrison headquarters in the center of the county to report, and at the same time he immediately asked the puppet army to block the gap in the city gate.

Although there was no Eighth Route Army outside the city, Takano Shuichi had no intention of sending personnel to the outside of the city to check.

"Takano-kun, what the hell is going on here?"

At this time, a group of cavalry immediately came to the city gate, and a young officer on a war horse looked at Takano Shuichi and asked in a calm tone.
