Gold, silver, finances, and a life of luxury can also wear down his will to fight and courage.

Now, Harada Shaoza thinks about how much money he can make from his subordinates today.

At the same time, I also imagined what kind of happy life I could live back in the country after the battle was over, and I could use the huge wealth I had scavenged to use this time.

After admiring the beautiful vase, Harada locked the bottle directly to the safe, and then walked to the room at the back of the office with a very shameful smile.

The commander of the Imperial Association went out to sweep this time, not only bringing back a beautiful vase for himself, but also bringing back a delicate beauty for himself. Thinking of the situation he was going to face for a while, Harada Shaoza couldn't help but show a smile on his face!

Tonight, Harada's command headquarters is destined not to be an ordinary night.

Outside the county seat of Pingding, it is also destined to be extraordinary.

Although the Yangquan Independent Regiment has a total strength of more than 1,300 people, its equipment is very poor. The regiment had less than 800 rifles, only a handful of six machine guns, and none of the heavy machine guns.

With such a firepower configuration, in the face of the heavily defended county town of Pingding by the Japanese puppet army, it should have no confidence at all. However, tonight, their confidence is very high, and they are full of confidence.

In the temporary headquarters less than a kilometer away from the county seat, Wang Daoguang, the political commissar of the first detachment of the first division, personally commanded the siege battle.

Participating in the siege, in addition to the Yangquan Independent Regiment, there were also a guard battalion, a mountain artillery company, and a flying thunder artillery company. This is also a very important reason why the Yangquan Independent Regiment is so confident in the face of Pingding County.

As for the other reason for them to fully cooperate with the attack, it was the promise made by the detachment commander to the Yangquan Independent Regiment.

"Three heavy machine guns, three mortars, ten light machine guns, ten grenadiers, five hundred rifles, matching ammunition!" This is the benefit that Chen Zhengxiang promised to the Yangquan Independent Regiment.

As long as this battle is fought well, these light and heavy weapons will be handed over to the Yangquan Independent Regiment, and the Yangquan Independent Regiment will be completely armed into a main force.

"Commander Zhou, are the siege troops ready!" The political commissar asked, staring at the sketch of the county seat of Pingding drawn directly with a pencil on the table.

"Three battalions attacked from the east, west, and south, and the attacking troops were already in place!"

"In addition, chief, I have also divided the three heavy machine guns that you reinforced to me from the detachment guard battalion, one for each battalion."

"The nine flying thunder cannons of the Flying Thunder Artillery Company have also been divided into companies."

"As long as they see the signal to attack the city, they will definitely attack immediately!"

"Have you explained all the precautions?" The commissar continued.

"It's been explained. The Flying Thunder Cannon can only fire one round of explosive packs per location, and try to get as close to the walls as possible to increase the chance of hitting! ”

"The attacking troops should not fight hard with the devils in the city, they have strong firepower, accurate marksmanship, and too much loss in hard charge!"

"Good!" The commissar was satisfied, and immediately turned his gaze to the commander of the guard battalion.

"Battalion Commander Wang, Company Commander Zhang, I'll hand it over to you for a frontal attack."

"Within an hour, I must consume a squadron of devils and then force them to ask for help from Yangquan. In addition, the momentum of the offensive should be fierce, and a battalion will be used to give me a regimental posture! ”

In less than half an hour, three clouds of white light erupted in the sky over Pingding County, which was completely shrouded in night, and the piercing explosion instantly spread throughout the entire county, which was particularly piercing and dazzling.

"The mountain artillery company has all of them, five rounds of rapid fire, open fire!"

"All flying thunder cannons, ignition, fire!" The artillery commander who was hiding outside the four gates of Pingding County was the first to react, his eyes shining outward, and he ordered with a fanatical expression.

At the moment ......of "boom, boom, boom, boom", a dull explosion sounded outside the city.

A few seconds later, the sound of an explosion shaking the ground and shaking the mountains sounded around the already low city wall of Pingding County.

Soon, a piercing siren sounded in Pingding County.

Harada Shaosa, who is sleeping soundly with a beautiful woman in his arms, can get up from the bed if he puts it in the past.

However, now he only opened his eyes, and shouted to the door with a sleepy-eyed expression: "Guard, what's going on outside, where did the explosion come from!" ”

Before the guard could speak, the closed door was pushed open, and the lieutenant's staff officer on duty rushed in with both anxiety and horror.

"Captain, something is wrong! The county town was attacked by Tubalu, and at least one division of troops, who were also equipped with mountain artillery, were attacking the city fortifications! ”

"Nani, Binh Dinh County has been attacked?" Harada finally came to his senses.

Then he kicked away the woman who suddenly screamed next to him, and ordered with a little panic.

"Let's go, go to the war room! Pingding County is not an important target, why should Tubalu attack us! ”

As soon as I entered, several ensigns were waiting for me in front of the map.

"Report to the sir, the east gate has been attacked, the enemy has at least one battalion, equipped with heavy machine guns and flying thunder cannons, there is only one combat detachment of the imperial army and one company of the imperial army on the city wall, the strength is seriously insufficient, ask for reinforcements!"

"Sir, the south gate has been attacked, and the defending troops have lost more than half of their troops, so please ask for reinforcements!"

"Simon also needs reinforcements, at least an infantry squad. It is also necessary to reinforce the artillery fire and take out the flying thunder cannon of the Eighth Road. ”

"The power of the flying thunder cannon is too great, just now an explosive bag flew over, and we directly lost more than a dozen imperial troops and imperial alliance troops. The Flying Thunder Cannon must be blown up, or many warriors will be killed! ”

Second Lieutenant Harada's brows furrowed directly into a big Sichuan character, and he was a little panicked. From him, I can't see at all the calmness when he was still in the field division a few months ago.

That's when the biggest blow began for him.

As soon as a second lieutenant rushed in, he reported: "Sir, the north gate is under attack, and we must immediately reinforce the north gate!" ”

"There was at least one regiment on the Tuba Road attacking the north gate, and there was also a mountain artillery company and a large number of light and heavy machine guns, and the fire was very strong. More than half of the troops patrolling the city walls have been lost, and the nearest infantry squad has been reinforced, but it will definitely not last long, and the offensive firepower of the Tubalu is too strong! ”

"Bageya Road, is Tubalu crazy, why do you want to attack us to pacify the county seat, and even the mountain artillery is used, this must be the main force of Tubalu!" Harada Shaoza was completely panicked, like a madman who was playing drunk, and shouted loudly.

Then he didn't analyze it for too long, and directly ordered: "The three city gates in the east, west, and south will be dispatched to each other, with an infantry squad, a company of the Imperial Cooperative Army, and an artillery squad to reinforce the past, and they must block the Tubalu fortifications!" ”

"Other troops, all reinforce the North Gate, the North Gate must be the main direction of attack of the Tuba Road!"

The deputy captain next to him subconsciously reminded: "Do you want to leave a little reserve, even if it is an infantry squad!" ”

"The city walls can't be defended, what do you need to prepare!" The panicked Harada Shaozo denied without hesitation.

Then he continued to shout: "Tell everyone, be sure to block the attack of the earth eight roads for an hour." ”

"I immediately asked the commander of the Yangquan Brigade for reinforcements, and the reinforcements would arrive in an hour. When the time comes, we will attack from inside and outside, and completely annihilate and attack our Tubalu! ”

After saying that, Harada shouted to the vice-captain, "Yaga! What are you still doing? Don't go and give orders right away! ”

Then he ordered the second lieutenant in charge of the radio station: "I dictate, you send a telegram directly to His Excellency the brigade commander for help!" ”
