Chapter 468: Occupy Tianjin

"Okay, good fight, the little devil was finally beaten by us and began to retreat. Order all units to prepare for pursuit, and in the process of pursuit, they must keep a distance of more than 50 meters from the little devils, so as not to let the little devils in Tianjin have any suspicions..."Seeing that there were still more than 200 little devils, under the crazy cover of more than a dozen machine guns, like a lost dog, they quickly withdrew from the ambush circle and began to flee in a hurry towards the county town not far away. The corners of the regiment commander Huang Zhengqing's mouth finally showed a smile, and he ordered with an affirmative face at the two battalion commanders.

"Yes, regimental commander, I understand..."After receiving the order, the two battalion commanders quickly ran to their own troops and began to give orders to their troops to pursue... In less than half a minute, in the dark night, nearly a thousand troops of the Eighth Route Army, about a hundred meters behind the two hundred little devils, joined the pursuit....

And when less than two hundred little devils retreated in panic, less than two hundred meters away from the city gate. A special operations team that had already been hidden on both sides of the road, wearing the same military uniform as a little devil, but with a towel tied to his arm, quickly blended into the retreating army.

Of course, everything that happened just now, at this moment, there was no awareness of these little devil soldiers who were already in a panic, and they were still retreating in a hurry under the command of their respective commanders, wanting to get rid of the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army behind them in the shortest possible time and flee back to Tianjin.

"Baga, the Eighth Route Army is really very cunning. I really didn't expect that they would arrange so many ambushes on the road leading to the port, and their combat effectiveness would be so strong... After seeing more than 500 of his soldiers rushing into the ambush circle of the Eighth Route Army, they lost more than half of them in less than five minutes of firefighting. In the end, a hasty retreat had to be carried out under the cover of a large number of machine guns. The supreme commander of the Tianjin garrison, Gutian Daisa, who had been standing on the city wall. I couldn't help but clench my fists and scolded loudly... After all, in the entire city of Tianjin. In addition to the garrison of the port, he had less than 1,300 imperial troops in his hands, and he was a little powerless to defend the entire city of Tianjin. However, in just a few minutes of fighting, he lost almost a squadron of troops, can this not make Furuta Daisa, who is overstretched, feel depressed... However, just when he was still immersed in his anger and depression, the adjutant beside him, looking at the breakthrough troops who had successfully broken through and were getting closer and closer to the city gate, reminded the commander in a low voice: "Your Excellency, the breakthrough force is only two hundred meters away from the city gate. However, a hundred meters behind them, there were nearly 1,000 troops of the Eighth Route Army. You see, are we going to open the gates of the city at once and let the breakout troops into the city? Then, relying on the dense firepower network of the city defense troops, block the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army..."

"Yo Xi, you have a very good idea. Order the city defense troops to prepare for battle, and be sure to block the Eighth Route Army behind the breakthrough troops... Order the defenders at the city gate to immediately open the city gate and welcome the breakthrough troops into the city. Now there are only 800 men left in the city, and we must save every soldier who can continue to fight...", reminded the adjutant. Commander Furuta Osa immediately reacted from his depression. Looking at the breakout troops getting closer and closer to the city gate, he hurriedly ordered.

"Hey, Your Excellency Commander, I'll go and deliver the order right away..."Before he could finish a sentence, the adjutant hurriedly rushed down the city wall, came to the city gate, and began to command the troops to open the city gate....

"Squeak..." A grinding sound sounded, and the huge city gate, under the command of the adjutant, was slowly pushed open by more than a dozen soldiers. As the crack in the door became larger and larger, the scene outside the city was soon fully seen by the adjutant. More than 200 breakthrough troops, under the personal leadership of the captain of the garrison brigade, quickly ran towards the city gate... And just behind these breakthrough troops, nearly 1,000 troops of the Eighth Route Army, holding torches, opened fire while conducting a rapid pursuit..."Hurry, enter the city immediately, enter the city immediately..." Looking at the breakthrough troops that were getting closer and closer, the adjutant hurriedly shouted. Immediately, the captain who rushed to the front was the first to rush into Tianjin... Immediately, the second soldier, the third soldier ... More and more soldiers, under the gaze of the adjutant, poured into the city gate as if fleeing for their lives, squeezing the narrow gate hole to the point of immobility... Of course, the situation of this song is all mixed into the little devil breakthrough unit, and more than 60 special combat personnel have a special effect. And the reason why such an effect is achieved is that it is convenient for everyone, quietly eliminate all the little devil defenders in the city gate cave, and open the passage for the main force to enter the city..."Baga, everyone should not be crowded, enter the city immediately, I want to close the city gate, hurry up, enter the city immediately, otherwise, die, die..."Looking at the crowded soldiers around him, in the blink of an eye, the entire city gate was blocked tightly, and he couldn't close the city gate at all. Behind the breakthrough troops, the troops of the Eighth Route Army were getting closer and closer. The adjutant's face, which was still very calm just now, couldn't help but show a look of panic, and shouted loudly at the soldiers around him....

However, just as he was about to continue giving orders, a special combat team member with a towel tied to his arm had already taken advantage of the chaos and quietly crowded behind the adjutant. At the same time, a hand quickly covered the adjutant's mouth, preventing him from screaming even once... Just when the adjutant's eyes showed a look of horror and despair, and he began to struggle fiercely, a sharp dagger had quietly stabbed into the adjutant's chest... In this way, the adjutant, who was still struggling just now, slowly collapsed into the arms of the team members. In the end, he was quickly dragged into the corner of the city gate cave by this team member... Of course, the action just now was not aware of the chaos at this moment, and the Yue army who only remembered to flee for their lives....In less than ten seconds, the dozen or so little devils who gathered at the city gate and were responsible for controlling the city gate were quietly wiped out by the special combat forces who had infiltrated the breakthrough force... Following the retreating crowd of little devils, after cleaning up a squad of the army guarding the city gate, the special combat members of a combat squad immediately dispersed quickly with the combat team as a unit and began to snipe the army around them. And at this moment, the entire city gate has been completely controlled by a combat group, just waiting for the arrival of the main force..." Baga, all light and heavy machine guns should fire immediately, and they must block the pursuing troops of the Eighth Route Army, and immediately open fire to block the pursuing troops..."At this moment, the little devil of a squadron on the city wall, under the personal command of Commander Daisaku Furuta, raised the weapon in his hand and fired at the two main battalions outside the city, closely following behind the breakthrough troops of the Yue Army, and suppressed the surname shot... The sound of gunfire like bursting beans temporarily blocked the pursuit of nearly a thousand soldiers. But it also obscured the actions of dozens of special operators behind them... A special combat team member wearing a little devil uniform, under the cover of gunfire, unknowingly, quickly touched the back of a little devil light and heavy machine gunner..."Snort..."Several daggers stabbed into the flesh sounded, just now the little devil soldier who was still a light and heavy machine gun, facing the outside of the city, shooting constantly, was cut by the dagger in the hands of the team members behind him, with a trace of shock and despair, closed his eyes..."Ah, Baga, who are you, enemy attack..." Facing the figure that suddenly appeared behind him, facing the machine gunner who was suddenly bombed next to him and had been killed. The sub-shooter or bomber next to him immediately let out a burst of exclamations... However, their exclamations, other than speeding up their own deaths, did not do anything... Just when the little devils had not yet reacted from the shock, the team members who had already solved the machine gunners immediately waved the daggers in their hands and quickly eliminated the little devils around them who might pose a threat to them... At the same time, a light machine gun with a crooked handle was quickly carried in the hands of these team members. On the city wall, the Yue army, who had not yet reacted from the shock, quickly pulled the trigger...."Da Da..."A dozen or so crooked light machine guns, in the hands of these special combat soldiers, immediately shouted happily at the rest of the Yue army... One by one, the little devils, under the dense bullets, had already been shot and fell in a pool of blood before they found their enemies. More than a dozen tongues of fire, on the city wall without any shooting dead ends, are like a sickle dedicated to harvesting life, quickly harvesting the life of every little devil..."Baga, the Eighth Route Army is very cunning..."And as the commander Furuta Daisa, who was personally commanding on the city wall, he couldn't help but curse loudly while being shocked after being suddenly attacked, wanting to draw his command knife and slash at a special combat member not far from him. However, before he finished his sentence, several hot bullets had been accurately shot into his body... Commander Furuta Daisa, with a trace of unwillingness and despair, fell heavily on the city wall... I don't know until I die, how these Eighth Route Army got into the city wall, how can these Eighth Route Army have such a strong individual combat effectiveness... Of course, all this insoluble mystery can only be asked to go underground and ask Hades....

With the death of Commander Furuta Daisa, he dodged the strafing of just a dozen machine guns, and only a small team of imps remained. It immediately fell into chaos, and of course, the dozens of special combat personnel who climbed the city wall did not intend to let go of these little devils. Instead, he quickly pulled out the shell gun hidden in his waist, and aimed at the chaotic little devils, it was a crazy strafing, a dense rain of bullets, and once again completely covered them... The whole process came and ended very suddenly. In less than a few minutes, an infantry squadron defending the city wall, more than two hundred little devils, together with the commander, all fell into the hands of dozens of special combat personnel... Without the threat of the little devils on the city wall, the first regiment of the guard brigade, which had already been hidden, and two thousand commanders and fighters immediately jumped up from the ground and charged towards the gate of the city that was completely open....

"Comrades, kill...."The sound of killing quickly spread from outside the city to the city, and the troops of the Eighth Route Army, shouting slogans and carrying weapons in their hands, quickly rushed into the city... To the strategic points of the army in the city, straight into the past.

Of course, the shouts and guns at the city gate also reached the ears of the army in the city for the first time. The reinforcements, before they reached the city gate, collided with the guards entering the city on the way to reinforcements. As a result, a fierce street battle began to unfold in Tianjin.

Of course, at this moment, after the battle for the city gate just now, the total number of troops in the entire Tianjin city has changed from more than 1,300 to more than 700 now. And the Eighth Route Army troops that rushed into the city had more than 2,000 people, and there was also a special operations brigade that was very good at street fighting....

More than 700 Japanese soldiers are constantly interspersed and outflanked in the special operations brigade... Divide the encirclement... Under all kinds of tactical blows, they were wiped out little by little... The entire street battle lasted less than two hours, and the more than 700 soldiers were directly reduced to more than 200. And the more than 200 people have all been compressed into the headquarters of the Japanese army in Tianjin..."The first battalion continued to attack the headquarters of the Japanese army, and strived to completely annihilate the remaining Japanese army before dawn and with the cooperation of the artillery company. The second squadron of the special operations brigade searches the city for possible fish that may slip through the net, ensuring that not a single little devil soldier is spared... Anti-aircraft machine gun companies, guard companies, reconnaissance companies immediately occupied the city walls and laid out fortifications ... The second battalion and the third battalion immediately arrested the expatriates in the city, and after raising enough 5,000 men, they were quickly escorted to the port. If they resist, they will be executed on the spot... It's a very moment, we don't have so much time to rub shoulders with the little devil diaspora..."Looking at the army headquarters not far away, there are still hundreds of little devils who are still making the last stubborn resistance. Regiment commander Huang Zhengqing faced several battalion and company commanders and ordered solemnly.

"Yes, regiment commander, I promise to complete the mission..." Soon, in the entire city of Tianjin, except for the surrounding area of the army headquarters, there were constantly gunshots and cannons like bursting beans. Elsewhere, everywhere there are busy figures of warriors ... Families of little devil expatriates, escorted by soldiers of two or three battalions of a regiment, quickly assembled at the city gate... Finally, just as the day was about to dawn, the little devils who were resisting in the headquarters of the army were finally wiped out after being shelled again and again by the artillery company. At the same time, the two main battalions of the second and third have also gathered more than 6,000 little devil expatriates in these few hours....

In the voice of Huang Zhengqing's command... More than 6,000 expatriates, escorted by nearly 1,000 soldiers, quickly walked towards the port... Just when the whole sky had just brightened, and the warships and four gunboats of the Japanese army, which were less than 500 meters away from the port, were preparing to provide artillery support to the garrison of the port, more than 6,000 overseas Chinese were finally escorted to the port..."Baga, Your Excellency the commander, something happened at the port..."When more than 6,000 overseas Chinese had just been assigned to various important points in the port. The adjutant of the fleet, who was standing on the bridge and had been observing every move in the port, immediately let out an exclamation..."Baga, what happened..."Hearing the adjutant's exclamation, the fleet commander quickly raised the binoculars in his hand and looked at the dock... I saw that just now, I could only see the port of the scattered Eighth Route Army troops, but at this moment, countless civilians suddenly appeared. More importantly, these civilians, without exception, were all imperial expatriates stationed in Tianjin.

"Baga, the Eighth Route Army is very cunning, and it actually uses the expatriates of the Great Empire as their shields... Seeing the scene in the port, the commander couldn't help but clench his fists and scolded with an angry face..."Your Excellency the commander, have we canceled the order to shell the port? Looking at the pair of eyes in front of him, His Excellency the Commander, who was almost about to erupt into flames, the adjutant whispered..."Yaga, do you still need to ask?" There are so many expatriates in the port who are fighting in your own empire, do you want to go to court-martial, and even open fire on your own people. The warship was ordered to immediately cancel the order for the shelling and stand by in place. At the same time, we will immediately report the situation we have encountered to the Beiping Command, and ask His Excellency the Commander to make a decision for us..."The commander ordered fiercely.

"Hi, Your Excellency Commander, I'm going to deliver the order right away...."The adjutant hurriedly left the powder keg, which could explode at any moment, and rushed towards the command room ... In this way, with the human shield composed of thousands of expatriates, the little devil warships and gunboats that are constantly cruising on the sea can only look at the river and sigh, but they cannot play any role. And at this moment, after a night of fighting, the battle in the port is also coming to an end... The two infantry squadrons stationed in the harbor and a large number of naval units were finally wiped out under the fierce attack of the battalions and special operations brigades, and no one was spared... Of course, the battalions and special operations brigades also paid the sacrifices of a total of nearly a hundred fighters... Until the dawn of the next day, more than 300,000 tons of various strategic materials in the four warehouses of the port were all controlled. With the protection of a large number of expatriates, the entire port is not in any danger for the time being... Similarly, take a regiment of the guard brigade in the city of Tianjin, after destroying all the remnants of the enemy. Under the command of the regiment commander Huang Zhengqing, the entire Tianjin City, the remaining overseas Chinese, were all driven out of Tianjin City... As for the free-handed special operations team, they gave full play to their strengths and began to carry out crazy looting in various merchants and banks in the city.
