At the end of the day, it was about nine o'clock in the evening. This time, for modern people with night entertainment, is also the beginning of nightlife, the best time to play at night.

But for the people of the Republic of China, they are accustomed to 'resting at sunset', and most of them have rested at this time. And this kind of still cold night, no one wants to get up at this point or anything.

In the absence of electric lights, firewood and other fuels are required for lighting and heating at night. For the thrifty people, it is better to lie down on the bed early and wait for the dawn of tomorrow!

It is precisely this kind of time that is most suitable for reconnaissance detachments to carry out operations. In the entire city, those who are still awake and even come out to hang out are basically the garrisons in the city. Ordinary people would not come out at night like this.

On the other hand, patrol members only need to listen to what is going on during the patrol. People who are uncomfortable at night and are still wandering around the city must also be ill-intentioned in the eyes of the patrolmen.

As the location of Liangcheng Commercial Street, this is undoubtedly a place where people live more. For such streets, the patrol team naturally has to be careful to prevent people from sabotaging or hiding here.

The patrol team, which changes every two hours, has just changed its shift at the end of the day. For the patrol officers who took over, this was also their first time patrolling the shopping street. In their opinion, going through it is a formality.

Just as the ten patrolmen came from the end of the street with torches. Crossbowmen, concealed on both sides of the street, were equally ready to shoot. Beside them, scouts armed with daggers were on standby.

As usual, the patrol strode down the street. Looking at the closed shop doors on both sides of the street, they all knew that it was a big night, and no one came out to hang out. In winter, there is no business during the day, let alone at night!

With these patrol members, who were mostly just doing their part, they had just passed by where the scout team was hiding. Suddenly, there was a whistle in the darkness, and the sound caused the marching soldiers to stop.

It was at this time that the sound of 'whooshing' arrows was heard in the dark. As soon as they turned their heads to look at the patrol members in the shadows, many of them didn't even scream, and the crossbow arrows pierced their throats and heads.

On the other side, several scouts with daggers also rushed out very quickly. The patrol members who were wounded by crossbow arrows but did not die were all wiped out with daggers. A series of actions seem to be completed in an instant.

Standing upstairs, Shopkeeper Xu and the two guys felt cold sweat all over their bodies when they watched this scene: "Oh my God! These Scouts are too skilled, aren't they? These ten second devils were simply solved? ”

'Yes! I really can't imagine that the people sent by the main force are so powerful. ’

Listening to the conversation between the two guys, Shopkeeper Xu was shocked in his heart, but he was also happy to have such a warrior. After all, as an old underground party, he knows very well how ferocious and terrifying the little devil is.

The stronger the reconnaissance detachment that attacked Liangcheng at night, the more likely it is that tonight's operation is likely to succeed? If they can't recover Liangcheng tonight, then they are looking forward to the desire to liberate Liangcheng for a long time, but they are afraid that they will have to wait for a while.

'All right, you two don't make any noise, go down and open the door, and hide the ten corpses.' In addition, the people who went to inform us can come out and stand by. Wait until the fight starts, don't let the little devils destroy our street.

After the recovery of Liangcheng in the future, this commercial street is under the jurisdiction of our democratic government. The tax revenue of this street is still very important for the formation of a democratic government. What's more, everyone is a folk, don't let the little devils cause trouble. ’

For the shopkeeper Xu, the stronger the combat effectiveness of the main force, the more reassuring and reassuring they will undoubtedly be. Now that the reconnaissance detachment has begun to act, he undoubtedly realizes that the battle to recover Liangcheng has officially begun, and he also needs to do his best to help.

When the guy opened the door of the store, the special operators who mended the knife had already dragged the body into the store. The other scouts in pseudo-military uniforms had already picked up torches and continued to stand on the street.

Even if someone heard the screams before, when they stretched out their heads to check at this moment, they couldn't see anything wrong. After all, it is impossible for the people who live here to know the puppet army who patrols every night.

What's more, when they see people opening the door to describe it, the scouts will pretend to be angry and shout: "What do you see? If you don't sleep at night, do you all want to be a guest in the game? ”

With such a roar, no matter how curious the people or merchants who came from the screams, they would honestly close the doors and windows. If they are really caught in the bureau, not to mention that people will be punished, they will have to pay money to ransom people!

As for whether you are guilty or not, as long as you are caught inside, everything is up to the people inside!

The bodies were disposed of, and ten scouts posing as patrol members moved on. All they had to do was go to the place where the patrolmen were resting. There, the rest of the patrols will go to that place to gather at the end of the patrol.

And such a culling, in addition to the commercial street, the rest of the reconnaissance squads are also in progress. When we arrived at the rest point where the patrols were concentrated, the patrols that came back were all members of the reconnaissance detachment.

Looking at these concentrated reconnaissance teams, the commander who led the team immediately said: "One to three teams, go to the West City Gate to deal with the defenders there." At this point, it is estimated that there are few soldiers in the city to defend it, and most of them are roasting fire in the cave of the city gate!

Combat detachments of four to seven, follow me to attack the Japanese headquarters. What we have to do is sabotage the little devil's radio communications. Create an opportunity for the next main force to recover Zhuo Zi City. The rest of the detachment defended the important facilities in the city. ”

'Yes! ’

'Action! ’

After a brief convergence, the reconnaissance units, which were divided into twelve combat detachments, walked one after another to their respective areas of responsibility. The reconnaissance company commander who led 40 scout members also secretly arrived outside the Japanese headquarters in Liangcheng.

Compared with other places, the sentries arranged by the Japanese army stationed in Liangcheng at the entrance of the headquarters are naturally all serious little devils. Looking at these little devils who were still sticking to the sentry, the scout also admired the perseverance of these little devils.

But admiration is admiration, the more conscientious the little devil is, the more necessary it is for the officers and men of the reconnaissance detachment to annihilate him. In this case, the reconnaissance detachment, carrying mortars, also began to set up two mortars.

Looking at the time displayed on the watch, there was not much time left for the attack ordered by the main force of the regiment. The reconnaissance company commander called several long-range crossbow archers to his side and said, "Are you sure, kill the machine gunners in those watchtowers?" ”

Looking at the machine gunners, the crossbow archer said, "Yes! However, it will take the cooperation of a sniper! ”

If the bolt misses, the sniper will refill the shot. Without dealing with the machine gunners on these watchtowers, the reconnaissance detachment could not successfully break through to the Japanese headquarters. So, snipers are more used to make up for the last link.

For the reconnaissance detachment, when they attack here, they know that their battle can start at any time. It's just that the later their whereabouts are revealed, the more beneficial it will undoubtedly be for them to raid the Japanese headquarters.

'Good! Snipers in position, crossbowmen ready! ’

After the order was given, the mortars were also prepared for the shelling. They needed to launch an artillery strike on the radio room of the command headquarters at the moment when the shots rang out. And it was necessary to carry out shelling as quickly as possible, continuously!

Only in this way can it be possible to block the Japanese army from sending a report, and it is possible not to transfer the news of the fall of Liangcheng to other places as soon as possible. Even if someone in the city knew that the Eighth Route Army had attacked Liangcheng, it was not easy to rely on manpower to report to his relatives on foot or on horseback.

Move the long-range crossbow arrows, and each crossbow archer will aim the arrows at the Japanese soldiers on the watchtower. The reconnaissance company commander, who was also observing the timing of the shooting, was also staring at the movements of the Japanese troops on the watchtower.

When the crossbowmen were ready, the reconnaissance company commander said calmly: "Shoot!" ”

These long-range crossbows, which can shoot at a distance of 100 meters, are undoubtedly more lethal than melee crossbows. Although this range is far less than that of a rifle. However, crossbow arrows can effectively reduce the exposure rate of the action team.

Watching the crossbow arrows fly out with the sound of arrows, the sentries on the watchtower who moved their positions from time to time were shot by the crossbow arrows for the first time. As for the machine gunners lying on the sofa position of the watchtower, several people were also shot.

But one of the bolts failed to hit the heavy. Seeing this scene, the reconnaissance company commander immediately said: "Sniper, replenish the gun!" Mortar, three rapid fires! Assault team, follow me! ”

'Smack! As soon as a gunshot rang out, the Japanese machine gunner, who was almost killed by a sudden crossbow arrow, had just pulled the trigger of the machine gun to load the bullet. Just as he was about to strafe the place where the crossbow bolts were flying, he heard a gunshot in the dark.

As the gunfire rang out, the machine gunner also fell on the sandbag very simply, and even the machine gun fell directly from the watchtower because of the reason why he fell. And this gunshot means that the battle has officially begun.

Many Japanese soldiers who were resting at the headquarters also heard the sound of gunfire at hand. As they hurriedly got up and dressed, they were horrified to hear the sound of shelling flying into their headquarters.

Two crisp sounds of 'boom', accompanied by two shells falling on the Japanese headquarters. The telegraph room, which was still lit, was soon plunged into darkness and the light of explosions. The sound of this cannonball also completely woke up the people living in Liangcheng.

Even many officers and men of the garrison guarding the city were very shocked when they heard the sound of artillery coming from the headquarters. The first thing they thought of when they were roasting the fire was to grab the rifle that they had put around them before.

But at the west gate, these puppet soldiers, who were also awakened by the sound of cannons and got up from the hole in the gatehouse, suddenly saw a group of people wearing their military uniforms rushing over. Without saying a word, these men were shooting frantically with guns in hand.

Before he could figure out what was going on, the puppet army who had just been warmed by the fire was caught off guard. When they fell, the three reconnaissance teams responsible for capturing the west gate also rushed into the gate hole and opened the closed gate.

With the opening of the city gate, Liangcheng also means that it has opened its arms to the Eighth Route Army. The first battle to recover Suiyuan can be regarded as an official kick-off! (To be continued.) )
