Although he no longer insisted on ending the operation, the worry on his face did not dissipate.

frowned, and continued to ask: "But, regiment commander, knowing that the devil has arranged such a big trap for us, and still commanding the troops to rush into the trap, doesn't that send the troops to death?" ”

"Hmph...... Die! Not necessarily......" Wang Ping suddenly sneered.

Then he analyzed the political commissar with a confident face: "Political commissar, the head of the little devil division is very smart and cautious, but he is also very arrogant!" ”

"He believed that his infantry brigade would be able to withstand the attack of our assault battalion. I do not deny that with the strength of the assault battalion, it is almost impossible to take out an infantry brigade of devils in a short period of time, not to mention that it is very difficult! ”

"However, he overlooked one thing, our goal is not to kill this infantry brigade, but to open a gap in their defenses!"

"The assault battalion was armed with four infantry guns, six mortars, as well as nine heavy machine guns, dozens of light machine guns. With so many light and heavy weapons, even if they are smashed with shells and bullets, they can also smash a gap in the devil's defense line! ”

"Also, political commissar, don't underestimate Li Wen's ability. I'm sure that when the assault battalion tries to open the gap, Li Wen will definitely find a way to cooperate! ”

"We only have more than 200 people in the city, and it only takes a minute or two to break out of Linfen and break through the devil's blockade. The assault battalion and Li Wen cooperate with each other, do you think you can't hold a gap for two minutes? ”

Huang Yuanqiang's frowning brows finally relaxed, and he hesitated and replied: "Regiment Commander, according to your judgment just now, if it goes well, it is really possible to receive the troops to rush out of Linfen City!" ”

"Then carry out the order!" Wang Ping no longer hesitated, and ordered very decisively.

The assault battalion was lurking, and the battalion commander Jin Kai was very anxious. The other troops have missions, and they have been fighting with the devils for a long time, so they have nothing to do here. As a battalion commander, although he knew that the regiment commander would not let the assault battalion rest here, he would let the assault battalion participate in the battle sooner or later. However, the platoon commander of the company under his command did not know that they had already touched their side more than once to ask for battle, eager to fight.

"Battalion Commander Jin, the regiment commander ordered, according to the original battle plan, immediately launch an attack on the Japanese troops left behind outside the east gate, open a breakthrough, and take the direct team and guard company out of the city!"

Jin Kai was like being beaten with chicken blood, and a pair of eyes quickly shot out two sharp edges.

Directly shouted to the artillery around him: "Artillery, aim at the Japanese defense line at the gate of the city for five minutes of artillery fire ~ five minutes later, extend the artillery fire on both sides of the defense line, and shoot all the shells brought!" ”

"Assault team, artillery cover, as close as possible to the Japanese lines. After the artillery fire began to extend, it quickly launched a surprise attack and tore a hole in the devil's defense line for me. ”

"The follow-up troops will expand the breakthrough, and then hold the breakthrough for me, and hold on until the direct team and the guard company rush out!"

"Heavy machine gun company, scattered in platoons to three companies to follow the army!"

"Shoot ......"

"Woooooooooo......oo Rumble ......"

The screaming sound of the shells crossing the sky and the violent explosion, with an interval of two or three seconds, were transmitted to the headquarters of the Japanese division outside the west gate.

The artillery staff immediately made a judgment: "Division commander, at least four infantry guns and five mortars ......"

"The Eighth Route Army, which attacked our four garrisons just now, only dispatched mortars, and now even infantry artillery has been dispatched, and four infantry guns have been dispatched at one time, and the two infantry brigades of the Imperial Army are only equipped with four infantry guns...... Division commander, I judge, this is a hidden force of the Eighth Route Army, there is no doubt about it! The chief of staff said, looking excited.

The shelling in front of us has proved to everyone that the judgment of the division commander was right from the very beginning.

Now that the Eighth Route Army has jumped into the trap prepared for them by the division commander, it is the turn of the imperial army to close the net.

Thinking that the battle in front of him could not only kill the troops of the Eighth Route Army hidden in Linfen City, but also kill the elite troops they had been lurking outside the city, and win the first battle after the troops entered Linfen, the chief of staff couldn't help but smile on his face.

Lieutenant General Ito is much calmer.

Although the Eighth Route Army has entered the urn, any variables are possible before the net is really closed and these Eighth Route Army are killed.

Staring at the chief of staff, he ordered: "Cavalry troops, chariot troops, set off immediately to reinforce the east gate......"

"Surround the Eighth Route Army that is attacking the East Gate and kill them!"

"Also, order the 135th Infantry Wing stationed at the east gate to hold the city gate and hold off the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army. Reinforcements will arrive in half an hour at the latest! ”

In Linfen City, the guard company and the directly subordinate team that were finally concentrated in the east of the city added up to only more than 140 people.

You don't have to guess to know that the rest of the warriors either stay behind the back hall or continue to fight with the devils in the streets, attracting their attention and buying time for themselves to break through.

Under Li Wen's order, more than 130 soldiers all changed into devil uniforms and hid in a courtyard less than 100 meters away from the city gate.

In order to prevent them from escaping Linfen City, Lieutenant General Ito not only deployed a large number of troops outside the city to surround them. The 134th Wing that entered the city also arranged a squadron at each city gate to prevent the Eighth Route Army from escaping Linfen City.

The two lines of defense like an impregnable wall trapped the direct team and the guards in the city.

Although many soldiers fought all the way here, as soon as they saw the arrangement of the devils at the city gate, their desire to leave the city was shattered.

Then they shouted to kill back, continue to kill devils, kill one is enough, kill two to earn one......

Li Wen and Hong Ruijun neither spoke, staring at the city gate motionlessly, their ears also erected high, not letting go of the slightest movement outside the city gate.

"Shelling, the troops who responded to us opened fire~ Captain Li, there are infantry guns, and mortars!" Hong Ruijun shouted excitedly as soon as he heard the explosion outside the city.

Li Wen's face was serious, but the sharpness and excitement revealed in his eyes revealed his inner thoughts at this moment.

Like Hong Ruijun, I am very happy......

Decisively ordered: "Company Commander Hong, organize the troops, prepare to leave the city......"

"All those who can speak Japanese come with me, and start moving in five minutes......"

The explosions continued to sound outside the city, and Li Wen could clearly see that the more than 100 devils guarding the city gate were no longer as calm as they had just now, and were even a little panicked and restless.

The intense shelling also made them feel dangerous, and they were afraid that the next shell would hit them directly.

"Let......'s go," Li Wen ordered seizing the opportunity.

More than 130 warriors, dressed in devil uniforms, lined up, weapons either in their hands or on their shoulders, ran to the city gate.

"Baga, who are you~ This is the gate of the city, and it is not allowed to pass...... "Just walked fifty meters, a burst of scolding sounded at the city gate, and then there was a sound of loaded metal colliding ......"......

Li Wen waved his hand and ordered the troops to stop, and then replied loudly in Japanese: "We are the third squadron of the Matsushita Brigade, and we were ordered to reinforce the defenders outside the city~ The Eighth Route Army attacked very fiercely, and they suffered great losses, and if they did not reinforce the defensive line, they would be broken through." ”
