Chapter 221: The Assault on Jinzhong City (2)

"Commander! The front has been reconnoitred clearly! There is a checkpoint on the road five kilometers away from us, and it is also the first line of defense of the devil Jinzhong City! Liu Xiaogang, the captain of the special operations team, came to Liu Hua, who was resting, and said!

"! So fast, I didn't expect the devils to be so well defended! Be specific? Liu Hua frowned!

"Yes, Commander! In order to prevent someone from destroying a large number of materials in Jinzhong City, the army began to set up checkpoints five kilometers away from the county seat! According to the results of the reconnaissance just now, from here to the county seat! There are still two checkpoints in total! Liu Xiaogang replied.

"We can't sneak around from both sides without going through the devil's checkpoint! Direct attack on the county seat. Liu Hua asked.

"No, Commander! Both checkpoints are located in places with prominent terrain, and it is possible if it is a small force of a few dozen people! But it's impossible for our large army of a few thousand people to bypass Ben! Add in the fact that we still have dozens of cannons, which is even more impossible! Liu Xiaogang replied affirmatively.

"Communicator! Map of Jinzhong City! Captain Liu, you mark the devil's checkpoint! By the way, let me explain to you the deployment of the army? Looking at the map that had been spread out, Liu Hua ordered.

"The devil checkpoint occupies these two mountain passes separately! These two places have dangerous terrain! Only by passing through the checkpoint can our large army pass! In addition, the army deployed a squad of troops at each checkpoint. That's exactly what happened. There is one more case! Every checkpoint has a telephone or radio station, after being attacked! Will Jinzhong City know the situation immediately? Liu Xiaogang pointed to the map and replied!

"Comrades! It seems that the devil won't give us a chance to sneak attack! Since we can't sneak attack, let's attack! Anyway, the purpose of our attack on the county is to attract the main force of the Yue army to come back for reinforcements. Captain Liu Xiaogang of the Special Operations Brigade! Liu Hua looked around at the cadres around him and ordered!

"Here, Commander!" Liu Xiaogang stood up!

"Command! The special operations team must take down the two checkpoints of the devils within one day tomorrow! Clear the way for the smooth advance of the main forces! Is there any difficulty! Liu Hua ordered.

"Yes! Commander. The special operations brigade resolutely completed the mission! Open the way for the main force to move forward! Liu Xiaogang replied solemnly.

"Good! I believe in the Special Operations Brigade! Wang Counselor. ”

"Here, Commander!" Staff Officer Wang, who came out with Liu Hua, stood up!

"Well, your task is to send a message to the three main regiments! They must meet here before dark tomorrow! Also, through the radio, the casualties of the three regiments were counted as soon as possible! If you want to know your opponent, you must first know yourself! Liu Hua ordered.

"Yes! Commander. I'll be sure to get the results out as soon as possible! Counselor Wang replied.

"That's it! Everyone's mission is clear! I'll camp here tonight, waiting for the good news from the Special Operations Brigade! Let's go our separate ways! Liu Hua announced the adjournment of the meeting.

After the meeting was adjourned, Liu Xiaogang went straight to the gathering place of his troops. At this time, the soldiers were sitting together in several people, eating a marching dinner! Or lie on the ground and rest..."Xiao Wang! Call a few squadron leaders and go to scout the enemy together! Tell them that we have a mission. Liu Xiaogang ordered to the guards behind him.

"Yes, Captain." After speaking, he ran out without waiting for Liu Xiaogang to nod! Looking at the guards who disappeared into the night, Liu Xiaogang shook his head. However, the speed at which several squadron leaders arrived was very fast! In less than a few minutes, several people ran in front of Liu Xiaogang out of breath.

"Captain! What are the important tasks. Just now Xiao Wang said that there was an important task, so I hurried here. The first squadron leader wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and asked.

"Look at you! Ask the task as soon as you come, don't worry! There are many tasks, and you are afraid that you will not have time to complete the tasks when the time comes! Liu Xiaogang replied with a smile.

"Captain, I'm really in a hurry! You don't know, during this time, our special operations team has always been a reconnaissance mission! I watched the little devil pass by, but he couldn't move. The fighters are in a hurry! Ask me every day when I can go out and clean up the little devils. The first squadron leader replied with a smile!

"It's you who think about fighting devils every day! And to the soldiers, it's embarrassing to say it. Liu Xiaogang asked with a smile.

"Everyone's here! Let's go, follow me to see the checkpoint of the army! The commander gave us the task of the special operations group to uproot the two checkpoints in front of us in one day tomorrow! After Liu Xiaogang finished speaking, he led everyone to the first checkpoint of the Yue Army.

In less than twenty minutes! Liu Xiaogang and the others came to a wooded valley. Through the gaps in the trees, you can faintly see a glimmer of light on the road!

"Attention, comrades! Ahead is the first checkpoint of the Japanese army! Liu Xiaogang interrupted several squadron leaders who were talking and reminded.

Sure enough, in less than two minutes of walking! The group came to a place 200 meters away from the military checkpoint and stopped.

At this time! Everything at the military checkpoint was clearly visible in front of everyone's eyes under the bright light of the searchlight: "Captain! The commander told us to take down the checkpoint in front of us! Is there artillery support? The second squadron leader asked.

"Artillery support! What else do you want our special operations brigade to do if there is artillery? Liu Xiaogang began to carefully observe the checkpoint of the army.

Checkpoints occupy the only access to the valley. Two machine-gun bunkers made of sandbags appear at the forefront! Through the binoculars, you can clearly see that each bunker is guarding two devils, one of whom is vigilantly holding a light machine gun, looking at the road.

"Captain, the devil's defense is too strict! If there were no artillery to knock out the two machine-gun positions in front of them, the casualties of the fighters would be very large! Said the third squadron leader.

"Hmmm! I know that too, so I'm going to figure it out! Liu Xiaogang frowned and said. Hear it here! Everyone fell into deep thought.

And just when everyone was at a loss, the roar of a car reached everyone's ears. Everyone hurriedly looked for the sound, and saw two cars appear in everyone's field of vision, driving towards the first checkpoint. The two cars drove through two machine-gun emplacements with their lights on, stopped in front of a sentry post, and in the first car handed out something like a pass, and in less than half a minute the two cars started again and passed the checkpoint with ease.

Seeing this, a battle plan suddenly appeared in his mind. Liu Xiaogang's frowning brows suddenly relaxed, and he looked at the few squadron leaders around him, everyone was smiling.

"Looks like everyone has figured out a way. Walk! Go back and assign battle missions! Liu Xiaogang turned around and walked towards the way he came. Thanks to the good strategy to defeat the enemy! So everyone went back very quickly, and in less than 20 minutes, everyone gathered again at the temporary headquarters.

"I won't say more, the task given to us by the commander is to take down the two checkpoints on the road! Now deployed combat mission: Squadron Leader. ”

"Here!" The captain of the first squadron replied loudly.

"Your mission is to ambush on both sides of the highway and capture a few devil cars. By the way, remember to capture a few devils' military uniforms, this is the key. Second squadron? ”

"Here!" The second squadron leader stood up excitedly.

"You set out overnight, and set out with your troops to ambush the place where we just ambushed, and as soon as the first squadron began to attack, it immediately charged! Eliminate the remnants of the devils at the checkpoint. The third squadron is in reserve, ready to destroy the second checkpoint! "Liu Xiaogang ordered!

"Yes, Captain!" Hear the order! The two squadron leaders answered in unison!

"Are the tasks clear? If it's clear, everyone will start to split up..."Liu Xiaogang ordered.

At this time, almost five hours had passed since the meeting ended, and the leader of the first squadron was quietly lying in the woods on both sides of the road with his troops. Although after a few hours of ambush, everyone was tired! But due to the usual hard training, the fighters still stared at the road in good spirits. Finally, the roar of a car reached everyone's ears. The fighters raised their guns in their hands almost at the same time.

The leader of the first squadron raised his binoculars and saw three devil cars slowly moving towards his ambush circle! There were seven or eight devils standing crookedly on each car, without the slightest vigilance. There was a light machine gun on the roof, though the heavy appeared to be asleep.

"Inform the squads to get ready for battle! Remember, you can't let go of a little devil. The first squadron leader ordered, and at the same time took out the pistol at his waist.

After receiving the battle order, the soldiers quietly loaded their weapons one after another! The snipers aimed at the drivers and machine gunners of the army, and everything was waiting for the squadron leader's order..."Comrades, fight!" The squadron leader shouted! At the same time, the right hand holding the pistol also pulled the trigger and fired the first shot of the ambush battle, and at the same time the first shot of the Jinzhong Campaign.

At the same time, a sparse rifle sound rang out! It was a dozen snipers of the 1st squadron, and under their guns, the entire devil transport lost half of its combat strength at the very beginning of the battle. Three cars were parked crookedly on the road, and became the target of the fighters.

Immediately after that, machine guns, rifles rang out! Dense bullets swept towards the devil's car, and the remaining devils had not yet reacted from the surprise attack just now! Half of the troops fell again, and the remaining few reflexes began to fight back with the cover of the trunk. Due to the complete capture of these cars and a dozen complete sets of devil military uniforms, the fighters could not use grenades. In the face of a few hidden devils, the fighters basically have nothing to do! However, for snipers, these stubborn devils are no problem.
