As Liu Tianshu's signal was issued, Yang Donghu, who had already been preparing on the opposite side, immediately gave Liu Sutang an order to act. Liu Sutang stared at the turret a hundred meters away, shouted loudly, and the grenadier who had prepared in advance stuffed a cannonball into the mouth of the cannon, and with a soft sound, the cannonball slid into the bottom of the cannon, and then quickly flew out, landing at the gate on the side of the turret, and with a bang, the cannonball exploded, blowing up the two puppet soldiers standing there directly.

The shells were followed by three rows of gunfire and shouts.

The devils guarding the turret did not expect to be suddenly attacked at this time, and the devil soldier Cao in charge of the turret was stunned, and ordered the devils and puppet soldiers guarding the turret to shoot desperately at the third platoon.

All of a sudden, fierce gunfire rang out from the Xingou Turret.

At the same time as the gunshots rang out, the guns in their hands rang out at the same time, and two bullets flew out of the muzzle of the guns, heading straight for the two devils guarding the top of the turret.

When the two devils heard the gunshots, they were about to run to the south and condescendingly fire at the attacking three platoons, but they were hit by bullets in the back and fell to the roof of the turret with a scream.

It's just that the screams of the two devils are not conspicuous in the fierce gunfire, and the devils guarding the turret don't even notice that their companions on the top floor have gone to see Amaterasu.

The two of them shot the devil who was in charge of lookout and vigilance on the top of the turret, and then two shots extinguished the searchlight on the top floor.

At the same time as the searchlight was extinguished, Shi Qiang pulled his fingers, and the crossbow in his hand shot out the flying claws rapidly, and it was falling on the roof of the turret.

At this time, Hao Mengxuan also came over, followed to fix the rope, Shi Hu put down the crossbow, grabbed the rope and tried it, then took out a thick cloth soaked in oil, put it on the rope and grasped it with both hands, and under Hao Mengxuan's fierce push, he quickly slid along the rope towards the turret.

In the blink of an eye, Shi Qiang arrived on the top of the turret, immediately turned over the battlement, and guarded with a gun, Chen Jian saw that Shi Qiang had arrived safely, and immediately slid over.

After Chen Jian and Shi Qiang passed, Liu Tianshu also quickly slid to the top of the turret, he and Chen Jian immediately rushed to the staircase of the turret, and saw that the devils inside were constantly shooting out, counting carefully, there were fifteen devils, the two looked at each other, ready to shoot.

With a loud shout, Liu Tianshu and Chen Jian rushed to the third floor, and the shell gun in their hands quickly fired at the devils, who were concentrating on shooting towards the north with all their strength, and they didn't come back to their senses when they heard the strange noise behind them, and they were hit by the bullets fired quickly by the short guns of the two people, and after a series of screams, they fell to the ground one after another.

After Sun Bao and the two soldiers rushed in, they saw that these devils were either dead or injured and fell to the ground, so they hurriedly ran up to replenish their guns at the devils who were delusional and died together.

Among them, there was a wounded devil who had reached for a grenade on his waist, and was discovered by a soldier, who immediately raised the bayonet and stabbed it suddenly, and the devil had blood coming out of his mouth, his eyes were stagnant, and he slowly died with unwillingness.

When Sun Bao and the three of them inspected the third floor, Liu Tianshu had already snatched the devil's crooked handle and rushed towards the second floor with his arms.

When the puppet army on the second floor heard someone rushing downstairs, they thought it was the imperial army coming down, and when they found that the person who came was wearing the Eighth Route Military uniform, and the muzzle of the black hole in his hand was aimed at him, he no longer dared to resist, so he could only obediently surrender the gun.

Yang Donghu and Liu Sutang saw that the turret had fallen into the hands of the reconnaissance squad, and immediately rushed over, and the more than ten puppet troops guarding behind the turret had already been suppressed by the fire from the turret and did not dare to move.

After taking the turret, Liu Tianshu immediately ordered the third platoon to clean up the battlefield, and the first platoon reinforced the second platoon to block the enemy's reinforcements.

At this time, the time is exactly ten o'clock. On the opposite hillside, a large force of the advance team had already appeared.

Hong Feihu was very happy when he saw that the Xingou Fort Tower was taken by the third company, and said happily to Liu Tianshu who came up, "Tianshu, your third company is really good, you fought well." ”

"Thank you, Captain, for the compliment." Liu Tianshu smiled unceremoniously.

Jiang Jinyong walked over, shook hands with Liu Tianshu, and then commanded the troops to quickly pass through the Xingou and walk towards the valley to the south.

"Report to the company commander, the battlefield has been cleaned up, seventeen devils have been eliminated, seven puppet soldiers have been killed, and twenty-nine puppet soldiers have been captured. A number of weapons and ammunition were seized. Two of our troops were killed and three were slightly wounded. Liu Sutang ran over and reported loudly.

"Kill the Xingou Turret, you only sacrificed two people, this battle is really beautiful." Hong Feihu heard Liu Sutang's report, his eyes lit up and he said happily.

Zeng Chi, the second captain of the second brigade, who was passing by, heard this, and immediately stopped and walked over.

"Hello Captain." When Liu Tianshu saw Zeng Chi coming, he immediately raised his hand and saluted.

"Company Commander Liu, your third company fought well, and it is worthy of the sharp knife company of my second brigade, in this way, the soldiers have worked hard, and I will ask the second company to help you move the trophies." After speaking, he turned around and shouted, "Second Company Commander." ”

A tall Eighth Route Army came over when he heard the sound, it was Tong Dawei, the commander of the second company of the second brigade.

"Order your second company to be responsible for carrying the loot, so that the soldiers of the third company can take a breath."

Hearing this, Tong Dawei put his feet together, shouted yes, and commanded the soldiers of the second company to run up to help the third company carry the loot.

Hong Feihu couldn't help but shake his head when he saw Zeng Chi's move, but he didn't stop it.

Just told Liu Tianshu to inform the three companies and two platoons that blocked the attack to withdraw from the battle after twenty minutes.

Zeng Chi's little abacus, how could Hong Feihu not know, no, the third company ended the Xingou artillery tower and seized a batch of weapons, ammunition and food baggage, these are all urgently needed supplies for the troops, he wants to intercept the capture of this battle in the second brigade.

After Liu Tianshu saw Hong Feihu and the others leave, he ordered Shi Qiang to prepare to blow up the turret, and at the same time quickly rushed to Shenggu Ridge with the three platoons that had been hurriedly replenished.

On the blocking position of Shenggu ridge, Zhu Aiguo commanded the second platoon, and had repelled the devil's two charges, but the second platoon also had to retreat to the second line of defense.

In the dark night, although the devil tried his best to break through the blocking position of the third company and rush to Xingou, it was a pity that he was not good at night fighting.

After Liu Tianshu rushed to the position with three platoons, he hurriedly rushed to Zhu Aiguo's side.

"Lao Zhu, what's the situation?"

"Tianshu, the devil's firepower is very strong, we have to give up the first line of defense, and the devil is preparing for the fourth attack." Zhu Aiguo saw that it was dark on the other side, and said with a gleam in his eyes.

"The large army has crossed the Xingou, so you immediately lead the first platoon and the second platoon to retreat, and I will take the third platoon to take charge of the broken rear." Seeing this, Liu Tianshu immediately asked Zhu Aiguo to retreat with the first and second platoons.

When Zhu Aiguo heard this, he didn't argue, and immediately commanded Jin Zhenbiao and Hua Xiaohu to quickly run back with a row and a second row.

Seeing the first platoon and the second platoon withdraw, Liu Tianshu said to Liu Sutang, who was standing on the side: "Third platoon leader, let's go, let's withdraw." "The devil's fourth attack has not yet been launched, and it is not yet time to retreat, let alone when.

When Liu Sutang heard this, he took a call for seven classes and eight classes to follow me, and after the ninth class was broken, he quickly ran back with Liu Tianshu.

Although the ninth class is a cover after the break, it is not to stay to block the enemy, but they are at the end.

As soon as the third platoon followed Liu Tianshu for two hundred meters, the sound of shells whistling behind him sounded.

Seeing that the blocking position behind him was blown up to the sky, Liu Sutang couldn't help but shout a fluke.

If it weren't for the company commander who asked the third platoon to retreat quickly, I'm afraid that after this round of bombardment by the devils, a few more brothers would fall in the platoon.

Hearing the explosion of shells behind him, Liu Tianshu smiled and said to the soldiers beside him: "Comrades, the devils are sending us off, we have to appreciate it, everyone speed up and catch up with the first and second rows." ”

When the soldiers of the third platoon heard this, they all laughed happily, and immediately sped up their feet, ran to the Xingou stronghold, and caught up with the first and second platoons.

Seeing the soldiers of the first and second platoons running with the wounded on their backs, the third platoon immediately went up to help under the command of Liu Sutang.

After Liu Tianshu saw the whole company enter the valley, he gave the order to Shi Qiang, who was preparing on the side, to blow up the turret.

Shi Qiang threw the torch into the turret, then quickly ran away, and threw the torch into the room behind the turret.

These rooms had already been doused by Shi Qiang with captured gasoline, even on the ground floor of the gun tower, and a lot of gasoline was also poured.

The remaining two barrels of gasoline were all taken away according to Liu Tianshu's request.

The reconnaissance squad had just run a hundred meters when a raging fire rose into the air, and after a while, a violent explosion sounded from the turret, and then it collapsed in the firelight.

Seeing that the Xingou stronghold was completely destroyed, Liu Tianshu had a proud smile on his face.

The devils who rushed to reinforce from Lantian Dam, after a rapid artillery attack, attacked by the infantry as usual, but unfortunately when they rushed to the Shenggu ridge, they found that the Eighth Route Army, which was still fighting fiercely just now, had all been wiped out.

When the leader of the devil squadron got the news, his heart suddenly cooled.

When he commanded the troops to rush to the Xingou stronghold and saw the stronghold still burning with flames, he could only curse a few words angrily and then ordered the signal corps to report the situation to the captain.

Liu Tianshu took the three companies and ran all the way, and when it was dawn, he rushed to Chenggou.

On the hill north of Chenggou, the Portuguese guard was a large team and a company. Ma Cheng, the commander of the first company, saw Liu Tianshu and others coming over with gunpowder smoke on their faces, so he greeted them from the top of the mountain.

"Company Commander Liu, Company Commander Liu."

Liu Tianshu heard the sound and saw that it was Ma Cheng, so he said with a smile: "Company Commander Ma, is there anything to eat, the brothers are hungry." ”

"Hehe, I don't have enough for you to eat three times in a row, but the political commissar has already prepared delicious food for the cooking class in front, and I'm waiting for you." Ma Cheng didn't expect this Liu Tianshu to eat as soon as he came up, so he said with a smile.

"Alright, let's go first." Liu Tianshu raised his hand to Ma Cheng, and as soon as he stepped on the road with the troops, he heard a loud salute, and when he turned around, he saw a large group of soldiers of a company all standing straight and saluting them solemnly.

His eyes were wet, and he shouted a salute in return, and all the soldiers of the third company immediately turned on the spot, saluted the first company, and ran forward with pride. (To be continued.) )
