Today, the first update, ask for recommendations, ask for collections.

Thank you for the big reward from "Hunan Yinying" yesterday......

On the morning of December 7, the western suburbs of Shouyang.

After almost two days of marching, more than 30,000 Jin Sui troops finally reached Shouyang, an important town on the Zhengtai Road, and without having time to rest, they launched an attack on the little devils stationed in Shouyang.

The small devil infantry wing stationed in Shouyang was defeated in front of more than 30,000 Jin Sui troops and did not hold out for four hours.

After recovering Shouyang City, the Jin Sui army cleaned up the battlefield on the one hand, and sent nearly 20,000 troops to continue to march eastward, in the place of more than 20 kilometers east of Shouyang, there is a wide canyon, and the Zhengtai Railway goes all the way east along the bottom of the canyon, leading to Shijiazhuang hundreds of kilometers away.

This canyon is just right to block the little devil reinforcements along the Zhengtai Railway to support Taiyuan, as long as the railway at the bottom of the valley is destroyed, and then the fortifications are built on the slopes on both sides, if the little devil wants to pass here, it will have to pay a huge price.

In the afternoon, a small number of the soldiers of the Jin Sui Army who arrived here came to the railway at the bottom of the valley to dismantle the rails on the railway, destroy the roadbed, and block the passage of the little devil's train.

Most of the fighters began to build fortifications, dig trenches, build machine-gun positions, build artillery positions, etc., on the slopes on both sides.

In the middle of the night, the soldiers of the Jin Sui Army who were cleaning the battlefield in Shouyang also arrived here, and more than 30,000 soldiers of the Jin Sui Army were busy until dark before the fortifications were built.

After the fortifications were built, everyone hid in the trenches to avoid the cold wind outside, and some of the soldiers even lit a fire, and three or five soldiers gathered around to roast the fire, while some soldiers fell asleep against the earthen wall of the trench with their guns in their arms.

The commander of the Jin Sui army did not stop the soldiers below from making fires, firstly, the weather in December was indeed too cold, on the other hand, it is estimated that the devil already knew that Shouyang was lost, and the commander of the little devil would definitely be able to guess that here, there was a blocking position of the Jin Sui army.

Now that the troops are on the surface, everyone's troop deployment and strength have been shown, and what is needed is to do it with a clear sword and a gun on the battlefield.

On the afternoon of December 7, the northern suburbs of Taiyuan.

The large army led by Zhang Yunfei has reached here, and a few kilometers away, on a small mound, Zhang Yunfei held a telescope and carefully observed Taiyuan City.

Outside Taiyuan City, there is no trace of the little devil, more than 10,000 little devils have shrunk into the city, and even in several large strongholds outside, there is no trace of the little devil, it is estimated that the little devil saw the army pressing the realm, and took the opportunity to slip back to the city.

On the city wall, a large number of devils can be seen shuttling back and forth, presumably setting up machine guns, carrying ammunition, etc., in preparation for the next battle.

Holding the binoculars and observing for a long time, Zhang Yunfei said to Master Liu, who was also observing the movements of the little devils: "It seems that the little devils have all made turtles with shrunken heads, and they have all shrunk back into the city." ”

"Yes, it seems that the little devil is preparing to defend the city and wait for reinforcements."

"The little devil's reinforcements won't be able to come for a while and a half, Yan Xishan's more than 30,000 troops have recovered Shouyang and cut off the Zhengtai Railway."

"That's great, these little devils have really become turtles in the urn, it's fun." Master Liu said happily.

"As long as the Jin Suijun can lock their pockets and block the little devils for two days, we will be able to wipe out the little devils in Taiyuan." Zhang Yunfei said confidently.

The two exchanged views on the upcoming battle, and Zhang Yunfei still used the old method, first bombarding the city with artillery, blowing up the strong city defense of Taiyuan, and then rushing into Taiyuan City.

However, there may be brutal street battles in the future, and the little devils in Taiyuan will definitely not surrender easily, and they will definitely be trapped in the beast and make the final struggle, but they can't take care of so much, they must fight quickly and eliminate these little devils.

The position of the 2nd Artillery Regiment.

One hundred and twenty cannons had lost their armor, and the muzzles of the black holes pointed at Taiyuan City, ten kilometers away, and on the artillery positions, thousands of soldiers shuttled back and forth, busy and busy.

Large shells were unloaded from the trucks, and each cannon was lined up in a neat array not far away, and the gunners were repeatedly correcting the firing parameters in an effort to hit the target first.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, with the order of the commander of the 2nd Artillery Regiment, more than 100 cannons roared together, and one shell after another flew towards Taiyuan City with a sharp whistling.

Zhang Yunfei, who was watching the battle on the hillside, saw that the artillery regiment's shells accurately hit the thick city wall of Taiyuan City, blowing up the little devils on the city wall to the point of flesh and blood.

A few shells even blew up several battlements on the city wall, and even a machine gun of the little devil could be seen flying far away in the explosion, far away from the city wall.

After several rounds of shelling, the city of Taiyuan was strong, and the thick city walls appeared to be crumbling, and in a few places the city walls even began to collapse.

Division Commander Liu, who was holding a telescope and standing next to Zhang Yunfei to watch the battle, was both shocked and envious when he saw Zhang Yunfei's cannon group exerting such great power.

Think about the previous eight-way siege, all relied on people to go up, the soldiers braved the enemy's machine gun fire on the city wall, everyone took ladders, risked death to climb the city wall, and every time there were heavy casualties.

But now look at the 136 siege of the city, it is often not the case, relying on the artillery to open the way, a fierce bombardment, before their troops began to rush, the devils defending the city on the city wall were blown to pieces, today is an eye-opener, a long insight.

The shelling of the 2nd Artillery Regiment continued, and after half an hour, several sections of the city wall began to collapse, and the walls that did not collapse were also blown up to the point where they were not the same.

In Taiyuan City, the little devil headquarters.

Yoshio Otsuka walked anxiously around the office, and the rumbling of artillery outside caused Yoshio Kotsuka to be upset, and he didn't know what happened to the casualties of the troops defending the city, Yoshio Otsuka thought.

This is, a little devil communication soldier broke in again, and reported loudly: "Your Excellency Commander, I just received a farewell message from Shouyang, which said that at ten o'clock this morning, it was besieged by tens of thousands of Jin Sui troops, and all the more than 3,000 imperial warriors stationed in Shouyang were shattered, and Shouyang was lost. ”

Yoshio Kozuka was shocked when he heard the message, and said in disbelief: "Baga, how can there be tens of thousands of Jin Suijun in Shouyang." ”

"Hi, Your Excellency Commander, the message is true, Shouyang has indeed been lost." The little devil communication soldier stood upright, bowed his head and bent over.

Yoshio Otsuka came to the map with a straight face, looked at the Zhengtai Railway, looked at the location of Shouyang, his face became more and more solemn, and he became more and more gloomy.

If Shouyang is really occupied by tens of thousands of Jin Sui troops, then Taiyuan will be in danger, and now the only way is to order the first infantry brigade in Pingyao to rush back to help, only in this way can Taiyuan be able to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements.

Thinking of this, Yoshio Kozuka anxiously said to the little devil communication soldiers: "You go and send a report immediately, and order the 1st Infantry Brigade to return to help quickly, and at the same time tell Beiping the news of the loss of Shouyang." ”

"Hi", the little devil signal soldier stood up respectfully, bent down and saluted, and then walked out of Yoshio Kozuka's office quickly.
