Chapter 350: The Reconquest of Suiyuan (3)
As the saying goes, 'don't do bad things in your life, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night', for many people living in Liangcheng, they just feel scared when they hear the gunshots. However, many people were terrified by the sound of gunfire.
The fear of ordinary people is more because they know that as soon as the guns and cannons go out, this originally peaceful Liangcheng is afraid that it will be chaotic again. In the era of war and chaos, it is not uncommon for unarmed people to suffer.
As for the group of people who were afraid of the sound of guns, they guessed that it should be the Eighth Route Army that would attack the city tonight. And they are also a group of people who will also clean up in addition to the little devils. For this, they are afraid.
There are undoubtedly only a few people who welcome the sound of gunfire. And this group of people are all similar to the existence of the shopkeeper of the rice store. They all hope that Liangcheng will become the liberated area of the Eighth Route Army from now on, so that they can live under the sun.
In the face of the sudden sound of gunfire, the little devils of the Liangcheng Garrison Headquarters. I didn't expect the Eighth Route Army to launch an attack on such a winter night, let alone that the Eighth Route Army would carry out such a close attack on them.
Hearing the sound of gunfire from the garrison headquarters, the puppet army of the garrison responsible for guarding the city gate also looked a little stunned. In their opinion, the Eighth Route Army infiltrated the city to attack the headquarters, and they were also in trouble.
The Japanese soldiers who led the team to supervise them said at the first time: "Baga, what are you still doing in a daze?" Rescue, hurry back to the command headquarters! Bagayalu, these damn sneak attackers, they should all be dead! ”
Just when the Japanese troops guarding the city gate returned to help, the fierce gunfire from the west gate once again stunned the puppet army who returned to help. But for the attacking reconnaissance regiment, when gunfire rang out in the city, the first and second battalions were already waiting for an opportunity.
Many people who had just led the troops to evacuate the city tower outside the city gate, the attacking Eighth Route Army appeared. The puppet army guarding the city tower also shot desperately to warn. It was hoped that by firing the gun, the troops in the city would be alerted to the reinforcements.
The city defense duty unit who was running to reinforce the headquarters heard the sound of gunfire coming from the guarded city gate, and a puppet army said: "Squadron leader, there must be an enemy attack outside the city, what should we do now?" ”
In the face of such an inquiry, the Japanese squadron leader who led the team back to the command headquarters also fell into a dilemma. Whether it's the city gate or the headquarters, any problem is fatal!
'Three or four squads returned to the city gate, and the rest of the squads followed me to rescue the headquarters. You must hold on, deal with the enemy who is attacking the headquarters, and we will send troops back immediately. Get started now, hurry! ’
The squadron leader, who led the team back to help, finally decided to take care of both ends. But at the same time, the reconnaissance team had successfully opened the West City Gate. The 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, under the assistance of the reconnaissance detachment, quickly entered Liangcheng.
'1st Company, follow me to attack the enemy's headquarters, 2nd Company, East Gate, 3rd Company, South Gate, 4th Company, North Gate, action! ’
The commander of the first battalion who successfully entered Liangcheng looked at the four main companies that had entered the city one after another, and immediately made corresponding arrangements. And at this moment, the surviving defenders guarding the West Gate were also very interested in disarming and surrendering to the battalion that entered the city.
After retaining a platoon to guard the city gate to guard these prisoners, the commander of the first battalion also quickly led a company to the Japanese headquarters in Liangcheng, where the gunfire was most intense. And the first battalion of troops that entered the city quickly fought with the Japanese troops who came back to help.
Listening to the sound of the expanding firefights in the city, even the people who did not understand military affairs knew that the Eighth Route Army had successfully entered the city. Then this also means that in a short period of time, Liangcheng is afraid that it will be the turn of the Eighth Route Army to be in charge.
The people who know about the areas controlled by the Eighth Route Army still have some expectations for this kind of thing. For many people living in Liangcheng, they also hope that after the Eighth Route Army is stationed, they can get their own land.
In this case, the Japanese expatriates who annexed a lot of land in Liangcheng realized that their land was very likely to be divided. Some expatriates were even more spontaneous and began to find rifles to cooperate with the counterattack of the troops in the city.
It's just that when these armed expatriates just walked out of the residential area, the people organized by Xu immediately counterattacked: "Kill these little devils, don't let them get out of here." Kill them! ”
The underground party that received the seized guns one after another, and the reconnaissance team that cooperated with them, blocked these expatriates directly on the streets where they lived. At this time, the underground party that hates these expatriates will not allow the expatriates to disrupt the offensive of the main forces.
By the time the commander of the first battalion led the first company to the headquarters, the reconnaissance captain who had previously led the team had successfully broken through to the Japanese headquarters and was engaged in the battle to wipe out the remnants of the enemy.
'Company commander, first battalion commander, they're here!' ’
'Good! You continue to fight and purge the remnants of the enemy in the headquarters. ’
The scout captain, armed with a submachine gun, threw a grenade into the room ahead. He ordered his scouts to continue the attack, and he temporarily withdrew from the battle and met with the commander of the first battalion.
'Battalion commander, the battle here is almost over. Let your row match it a bit! The rest of the people should clear the remnants of the enemy in the city. The little devil's radio room was destroyed before the battle. ’
The commander of the reconnaissance company, who briefly explained the situation to the commander of the first battalion, heard this and said with a smile: "Okay, you have worked hard. In the first platoon, you cooperate with the reconnaissance detachment to attack the stubborn enemy here, and the rest of the platoons seek out the enemy on their own to encircle and annihilate them. ”
'Yes, Battalion Commander! ’
The first company of the first battalion was the first to repel the defenders of the city gate who came to their aid, and successfully took the city gate under their control. The main force of the second battalion, which was feinting outside, immediately said: "Comrades, rush! ”
After the trumpet sounded, the troops responsible for attacking this side immediately rushed into Liangcheng. And the entry of the main forces of the second battalion, realizing that the battle was coming to an end. In the face of the assault of two reconnaissance battalions, this garrison brigade was not an opponent at all.
Seeing that the general trend had gone, the puppet army soon chose to surrender happily. As for the little devil who is unwilling to surrender, he naturally becomes a dead devil. The originally quiet Liangcheng was also woken up by the torches lit one after another.
When the commander of a regiment outside the city led the regiment headquarters into Liangcheng, the people who were organized by the underground party also cooperated with the troops and began to clean up the battlefield. And the troops who entered the city were also arresting those traitors and expatriates.
For many people who have been organized, looking at the Eighth Route Army that has entered the city at this moment, it has annihilated the little devils who they think are extremely vicious in such a short period of time, and they also realize the strength of this army.
On the other hand, the commander of the first regiment who entered the city, listening to the report of the first battalion commander and the reconnaissance captain, also smiled and said: "Okay, this battle is good!" The 1st and 2nd Battalions counted some losses, and the wounded comrades rushed to rescue them.
You have an early rest tonight, and you will start moving in the direction of Zhuozi early tomorrow morning. The reconnaissance team cooperated with the Liangcheng Special Committee to form a democratic government. There will be a garrison camp in the future, which will come to take over the security of Liangcheng. ”
'Yes, Captain! ’
When the telegram of the recovery of Liangcheng reached Li Xiangdong's brigade headquarters, Li Xiangdong was also very happy and said: "Not bad! Take Liangcheng, we also have a forward rear. Gather a bunch of needed supplies and start transporting them! ”
After saying this, Li Xiangdong said again: "Haven't you received the telegram from the Saber Special Combat Team yet?" ”
'Brigadier, no! However, I think it should be soon! ’
Tonight is for the troops who have recovered Suiyuan, they have a total of two battles. One of them was the Liangcheng Reconquest that a regiment was responsible for, and the other was the fifth saber detachment, which destroyed the battle of Baotou Airport.
When Li Xiangdong inquired, the fifth detachment responsible for urging the destruction of Baotou Airport had also lurked outside the airport. Baotou Airport, which had been robbed once before, was rebuilt by the Japanese army this time.
There was an experience of being robbed, and the importance that the Japanese army attached to the airport is self-evident. Even in such cold weather, the airport is still brightly lit, and searchlights constantly patrol the open space around the airport.
If the snow does not melt, anything that is different from the color of the white snow will be noticed by the Japanese guards. And the machine guns set up around the airport will also shoot at the problem areas in the first place.
Under such circumstances, all the special operations detachment can do is to keep crawling forward in a white cloak. The special combat team members who had been to the airport once before were now searching for the detonation device they had buried under the snow.
When evacuating Baotou Airport the previous time, He Zhengdao took this airport into account, and the Japanese army would definitely not give up. After all, for the Japanese army, the cost of rebuilding an airfield was not low.
At the Baotou Airport in front of him, the previous special operations brigade cleared out the defenders in the airport. Similar to the command building and dormitory, even the hangar was not destroyed. This means that the airport will continue to be in use.
Although the Japanese army later rebuilt the airfield, it was more about building the fortifications more solidly. Naturally, they didn't renovate the underground of the airport. And under the airfield, deadly explosives are buried.
In the case of night fighting, it is also not easy for special combat personnel to find the detonation device under heavy snow. If the detonation device is not found, it will be difficult for the special combat personnel to attack directly.
After all, here at the airfield, the Japanese army arranged a brigade of defenders. With only one detachment of them, even if they can infiltrate it, it will not be easy to quickly resolve the battle.
Until the end of the battle in Liangcheng, the special combat team members who had been groping behind the airport for several hours looked at the sealed box they took out, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Damn, I finally found it!" ”
The other special combat team members who cooperated with the operation also breathed a long sigh of relief when they learned that the detonator had been found. As far as they are concerned, if they can blast the airport first and then carry out a surprise attack, I believe that the destruction of the airport will be more complete this time.
And the detonation device was found, realizing that their operation to destroy the airport tonight could begin. It is believed that the destruction of Baotou Airport again will also be a fatal blow to the Japanese troops in the airport! (To be continued.) )
