Lunan, Zaozhuang.

Since Xuzhou was attacked by the Tiger Army, the Yue army in Zaozhuang and Linyi was ordered to gallop south to aid Xuzhou, and after Xuzhou was recovered by the Tiger Ben Army, the Yue army reinforcements in these two places did not return to their original station.

Rather, it was to prevent the main force of the North China Front Army trapped south of Xuzhou to continue to advance towards Xuzhou, so as to achieve the strategic goal of containing the Tiger Ben Army and recapturing Xuzhou with its main force.

Therefore, at this time, the garrison strength of the army in the Zaozhuang area was very empty, among them, there was a squadron in Taierzhuang, plus a puppet army company, and there were about five to six squads in Lincheng, plus two companies of puppet army Han annihilation.

At this time, Zaozhuang was stationed in Zaozhuang with three infantry squadrons and a battalion of the puppet army, with a total strength of more than 1,300 people, but these three infantry squadrons belonged to the garrison units under the mixed brigades, and their combat effectiveness was far from being comparable with the field troops of the elite divisions of the army.

As for the puppet army of that battalion, neither the equipment nor the combat effectiveness is worth mentioning at all. They themselves are composed of some bandits and local ruffians and hooligans in the Lunan area, plus some stragglers, poor military discipline, lack of combat awareness, and usually bullying and bullying the local ordinary people with the power of the people, but if they really want to fight, they are completely a rabble.

The reason why Zaozhuang's army is more than that of Taierzhuang and Lincheng is not that the geographical location of this place is more important, but because Zaozhuang has hoarded a large number of war materials urgently transported back from Xuzhou at this moment.

Therefore, despite such a lack of troops, the Yue army still deployed more than 1,000 puppet troops in Zaozhuang, which shows that the devils also know the important surname of Zaozhuang to them.

The strength of more than 1,000 puppet troops may not be much for the Tiger Ben Army, but it is more than enough to deal with the [***] and the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army who are active in Lunan.

Because this is the rear of the devils, the gates of Zaozhuang are open, but there are sentry posts set up by the puppet army at the city gate, and there are ghost soldiers with loaded guns on the city wall.

It was four or five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun had begun to slowly set in the west, and under the illumination of the slanting sun, the figures of several puppet soldiers were pulled by the elders.

"Erniu, I heard that the Zhao Wu family in your village went to Aunt Yifang again?" A puppet soldier with a 38 rifle on his back asked his companion beside him.

"Yes, this is already the fourth aunt's wife, Zhao Wu, the old rich man, his mother's money and food can't be spent for several lifetimes, and the aunt's wife is younger than the other, and the other is more beautiful than the other. I heard that this fourth aunt's wife is still a famous little beauty in all ten miles and eight towns. The puppet soldier named Erniu replied in a low voice.

"That's really a fucking flower and inserted it on the cow dung, Zhao Wu, this old thing, the old cow eats tender grass, it's a pity." The puppet army who asked was a little envious, jealous and hateful.

"By the way, Da Lin, why are you asking this?" Erniu suddenly asked.

"Nothing, nothing." The puppet army called Dalin replied nonchalantly.

"Hey, Dalin, there's a situation! There is a case! Suddenly, Niu Er pointed to the dirt road in front of him and shouted in horror.

Dalin and several other puppet soldiers took the steel guns on their backs in their hands and aimed at the front with vigilant expressions.

The devils on the head of the city obviously also discovered the abnormality, two Type 92 heavy machine guns and a few crooked light machine guns opened the safety one after another, and the muzzle of the black hole was coldly aimed ahead.

"Wait, it looks like the Imperial Army!" Da Lin looked at him with some doubts.

At the same time, a devil lieutenant at the head of the city also found out that it was his own people, and his tense expression involuntarily relaxed, and soon, the team of "imperial troops" had already come to the city, and the number was about a small team.

The puppet army under the city didn't dare to interrogate, so they only heard the devil lieutenant at the head of the city tear his throat and shouted in a loud voice: "You guys, which army is it?" ”

A "Yue Army Officer" under the city glanced at a person behind him, raised his head and replied loudly in Mandarin: "We are from the Inoue Brigade, and the commander is afraid that this place will be attacked by the Zhina, so he specially ordered our department to come and strengthen the garrison of Zaozhuang." ”

After hearing this, the devil lieutenant at the head of the city couldn't help but laugh proudly: "The commanders are too worried, this is the rear of the imperial army, and it is absolutely safe, how can those despicable pigs appear here." ”

"The military order is like a mountain! We've come all the way, and the Warriors need to go into town to rest. "[The military officer] said.

"Yo Xi, let them into the city!" The devil lieutenant waved his hand at the puppet army under the city.

The puppet soldiers did not dare to disobey, and hurriedly moved the barricades away and respectfully moved the way.

About 50 or 60 heavily armed "Yue Jun" swaggered into Zaozhuang City, and when they entered the city gate, several "Yue Jun" in the last row suddenly attacked, and several sharp bayonets stabbed into the bodies of several puppet soldiers such as Erniu and Dalin at the same time.

"You ...... You guys...... Not the Imperial Army! The puppet soldier named Erniu spat blood in his mouth, and his face twitched unwillingly.

Several special combat team members quickly dragged their bodies in, and because the devil lieutenant at the head of the city had already turned around, they could not find the anomaly at the city gate.

After Liang Yilu entered the city with dozens of soldiers, he quickly rushed up the city wall ladder towards the city head with lightning speed.

When the second lieutenant of the devil turned around and walked to the inner side of the city wall, he found that the "imperial army" that had just entered the city had rushed up violently.

The devil lieutenant who was horrified in his heart hurriedly pulled out his second lieutenant command knife and shouted urgently: "Baga, enemy attack, hurry, shoot!" Shoot! ”

However, because all his subordinates were aiming their guns at the outside of the city, especially the two Type 92 heavy machine guns, before they could turn the muzzle of the gun, Liang Yilu led the elite of the special operations battalion to kill and wound the head of the city.

The mirror box, known as a small submachine gun, is much stronger than the devil's 38 big cover at such a close distance.

"Bang bang bang...... A burst of rapid gunfire rang out, and the dense bullets hit the city with dirt and debris everywhere, and the two devil soldiers who had just run over were shot in the head one after another, and their heads fell to the ground.

Suddenly, taking advantage of the gap that the devil did not react, Liang Yilu rushed to the city with the special operations elite gate, and the dozen or so soldiers who rushed to the city head first discarded the rifles in their hands, and took out twenty mirror boxes from their waists, and dozens of mirror boxes opened fire at the same time.

For a while, the devils were thrown to the ground one after another, and as other special combat team members also rushed up, in less than five minutes, they wiped out all the devil squads on the city, and only two of them were slightly injured to varying degrees, and they controlled the city gate.

Liang Yilu immediately ordered the soldiers to turn around the devil's light and heavy machine gun, and at the same time personally took out a flare gun and pointed it at the sky and pulled the trigger.

"Bang, ......" With a sharp whistling sound, a white signal flare quickly lifted into the air.

The next moment, a few miles away from the city gate, there were tsunami-like shouts and roars, and about 200 elites of the special operations battalion rushed towards the city gate from a distance.

The gunfire at the head of the city had already alarmed the other puppet troops in the city, and about a squadron of soldiers hurried along the street towards the city gate.

When the devils entered the range of less than 200 meters, the gang on the city wall immediately ordered to open fire, two Type 92 heavy machine guns, several crooked light machine guns, and dozens of 38 rifles fired at the same time, and the dense rain of bullets suddenly poured towards the crowd of devils.

In particular, a few light and heavy machine guns blocked the devils in advance, and because of the condescending geographical advantage, coupled with the special operations battalion soldiers' unusually accurate marksmanship, the devil light machine gunners who hurriedly shot in the city were beaten into a sieve.

The head of the city was occupied by the [***] team, and the sound of killing outside the city was everywhere, and the devils obviously understood, and more and more devils and puppet troops were transferred over one after another, and began to desperately launch a fierce attack on Liang Yigang.

The devil knew very well that if he couldn't recapture the city gate and let the subsequent [***] team enter the city, it would be very likely that Zaozhuang would not be able to defend it, so a devil in the city was angry and gave all the puppet troops an attack order at all costs.

"Dada...... Da ...... "In the tragic fierce battle, the streets are already full of corpses, most of them are devils, and there are also many puppet soldiers.

The two Type 92 heavy machine guns condescended to cause very heavy casualties to the devils, so they also became the priority targets of the devils' sharpshooters.

In the fierce battle, no less than six special combat personnel with heavy machine guns were hit by bullets flying from unknown places and died on the spot.

Each member of the special combat team was an elite soldier of the Tiger Ben Army, and he lost several subordinates in a row, which made Liang Yilu's heart ache, so he immediately picked up a Type 92 heavy machine gun and fired fiercely at the city while roaring.

After about ten minutes of fierce fighting, the main force of the special operations battalion outside the city finally arrived, and as the elite of the special operations battalion with full service and German-style equipment entered the city, the devils who were still attacking just now were quickly defeated.

Liang Yilu raised his arms and shouted at the head of the city, leading his subordinates to take advantage of the situation to launch a fierce pursuit of the devil, and then the fierce battle for the city was staged.

Although the puppet army has an advantage in numbers, the special operations battalion of the Tiger Ben Army has an absolute advantage in terms of individual combat capability and weaponry.

After about an hour of fierce fighting, Liang Yilu finally led his troops to drive the devil out of the city, and the devil took the initiative to destroy a large amount of war materials hoarded in the city before retreating.

Looking at the towering monstrous fire and smoke, Liang Yilu took off the white gloves that were already pitch black, one was still on the ground, and said to his subordinates behind him: "Send a telegram to the military seat to report that Zaozhuang has been taken, and the army's combat materials have been destroyed!" ”

"Yes!" A senior soldier hurriedly stepped forward to answer, and then turned around and walked away quickly.
