Xiong Changhe stood on the offensive position, holding a telescope, staring at the devil's stronghold motionless with a pair of eyes.

As soon as the shelling of the Flying Thunder artillery platoon stopped, it shouted: "Fire cover, start the attack!" ”

"The whole battalion will rush up to me and destroy the remaining Japanese puppet army in the stronghold!"

The commander of a company in the trench, seeing his subordinates who were still stunned next to him, shouted directly: "Comrades, rush with me and avenge the sacrificed soldiers!" ”

Then he was the first to get up from the trench, with his gun in hand, and bent down to rush to the stronghold.

"Da Da Da ......"

The light and heavy machine guns of the first battalion were used to shoot at the devil's stronghold regardless of consumption, providing fire cover for the attacking troops. The crumbling turret was instantly beaten to the ground of bullets and sparks.

In the face of the battalion and company that were killed, and there were still living devils in the stronghold, they reacted quickly and counterattacked with various weapons, with a posture of not wanting to die.

However, the sporadic counterattack firepower could not cause much damage at all in the face of the offensive formation of one battalion, one company, and three or three. Despite the fact that some fighters were constantly killed in the attack and fell in the attack, the other fighters still rushed forward with their lives.

"Comrades, the stronghold is right in front of you, rush over with me!" The commander of the company pointed to the gap in the outer wall of the stronghold that had been blown up by the explosives pack, and continued to shout as he rushed.

"Dada...... Boom Boom Boom ......"

In the dense gunfire, a company of soldiers who were still alive, regardless of three, seven or twenty-one, threw a grenade into the gap in the stronghold first, and continued to rush into the stronghold after the gap sounded with a violent explosion......

"Battalion commander, we won, all the devils who are still alive in the stronghold have been wiped out by us, the puppet army has captured thirty-five, and the rest have all been wiped out!" In less than half an hour, the commander of the first company who had entered the stronghold rushed out with excitement.

"Where's your company? How many people are lost? Xiong Changhe wasn't too excited.

A total of fifteen twenty-pound explosive bags smashed into the devil's stronghold, even if the devil hid in the turtle shell like an iron wall, they would be blown up and suffered heavy losses, not to mention that they only relied on a masonry turret!

Therefore, the smile only flashed from his face, Xiong Changhe's face regained his calm, and then stared at him and asked, "What about the casualties!" The casualties of the first company are not large, and how many people are left to continue fighting! ”

"This!" The smile on the face of the company commander disappeared all at once, and his face became heavy.

After a moment's hesitation, he replied: "The whole company sacrificed 58 people, 17 people lost their combat effectiveness with minor and serious injuries, and nearly two platoons were lost!" ”

"That is, there is only one platoon left in your company!" Xiong Changhe's brows furrowed suddenly.

After fighting this battle by himself, there are still nearly 600 puppet troops in the base area to be eliminated.

However, the company in front of him suffered heavy casualties, which directly meant that the company could not participate in the next battle. And even if you participate, you can only do a lot of things.

Instructor Wang Bo also entered the stronghold, and when he came out, he happened to encounter the scene in front of him, and then said with a serious face: "Battalion commander, although the casualties are a little bigger, but the results are very large, in addition to food, we also found a large number of weapons and ammunition in the stronghold!" ”

"After confirmation, not only are all the combat supplies of the garrison of the stronghold for a month stored in the stronghold, but all the combat supplies for a month brought by the devil's armed food grabbing troops are also stored in the stronghold, and now they are all cheap to us!"

"There are also infantry guns, and there are two infantry guns in the backyard of the devil's stronghold, which were left by the devil's food grabbing troops, and they were captured by us before they could fire a single shot!"

"Although the losses of the troops are a little larger, the captured light and heavy weapons can completely make up for the lack of our troops in the next battle, and use powerful firepower to kill the Japanese puppet army that has entered our base area!"

Xiong Changhe's face looked a lot better, and after a long sigh of relief, he ordered: "Lao Wang, you are right, as long as the firepower is strong enough, it can completely make up for the lack of our troops!" ”

"Instructor, you take the recruit company, leave behind the baggage platoon, mobilize the common people, and rush to transport the materials and food that the devils have hoarded in the stronghold!"

"It's been ready for a long time!" Wang Bo replied confidently!

"In order to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm, tonight, as long as the people who helped us deliver materials and food, when they leave, one person will give five catties of food as compensation. A total of more than 2,000 people have been mobilized in several surrounding villages, and just behind, I have already sent people over, and they can come over in an hour at most, to ensure that the devil's stronghold will be emptied before dawn! ”

Xiong Changhe's satisfied gaze swept around the other subordinates, and then continued to order: "Others, replenish a sufficient amount of weapons and ammunition, and follow me to reinforce the third company!" ”

"Fire company, bring all the artillery and heavy machine guns we captured in the stronghold, and two infantry guns. Mortar shells take away four hundred rounds, infantry artillery shells take away a hundred! ”

"Bring all the light machine guns that you can bring, and if you can't take them away, wait for the second company to come over and directly equip the second company!"

"Lao Wang, the second company will follow you after coming back, and closely monitor the reinforcements sent by Linfen City. If they have the courage to attack our base area, then use guerrilla warfare and movement warfare to find a way to drag them down and kill and injure them in large numbers! Buy time for the main force to eliminate the devils in the base area and grab the grain! ”

The captain of the devil team was in a very bad mood, starting from entering the base of the Eighth Route Army, the march of nearly forty miles not only made him tired, but also held back his anger and had nowhere to vent it.

The continuous sound of gunfire and the sound of explosions from time to time accompanied the captain's ears.

I finally arrived at the first village where we harvested grain today, and it was already dark.

The captain of the brigade resolutely ordered the troops to rest at the threshing floor at the entrance of the village, guarding the 50,000 or 60,000 catties of grain that had just arrived, and waiting for dawn before acting.

"Sir, the losses of the troops for a day have been counted!" The adjutant frowned and walked into the captain's tent and reported.

"Speak!" The captain's nerves also tensed at this moment, and he was deeply afraid that the casualties of the troops would be too large and affect the next operation.

"Hey! Sir: According to statistics, we lost a total of 56 Imperial and Imperial Allies along the way, of which 35 were killed in direct battle, and the rest were lightly and seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness! The adjutant replied immediately.

"It's fine! The casualties are not large! The captain replied with a long breath, and his tense nerves relaxed.

Then he ordered: "Let the troops hurry up and rest tonight, and we will go to the next village at dawn tomorrow, and strive to return to the base before dark tomorrow!" ”

"Also, order to patrol the alert troops and strengthen the vigilance at night. I judge that the Eighth Route Army, which has been active around us, will definitely not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to sneak attack us! ”

"Da Da Da ......"

Perhaps to prove the captain's judgment, as soon as the captain finished speaking, gunshots rang out outside the station.

Soon, a second lieutenant rushed in: "Report to the sir, our patrol around the station has been attacked, and more than half of one patrol detachment has been lost. The Eighth Route Army is still the same, fight and run, and don't give us a chance to fight back at all! ”

"Eight Grid Tooth Road, cunning Eighth Route Army, they really came, and they came so fast! Don't they need to rest? The captain was furious, and directly turned into an angry lion and scolded loudly!
