In the blink of an eye, a day has passed.

Liao County, southeast of Shanxi, headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

Looking at the whole map of Shanxi, the boss smiled and said: "My God, there is a war in the northwest of Shanxi, a war in the southeast of Shanxi, a war in the Taiyue Mountains, and even a war along Zhengtai Road, and the whole Shanxi is a pot of porridge again." ”

"yes." The deputy chief of the general staff said, "Its scale is directly comparable to the battle of 100 regiments." ”

The boss said: "How are the blocking attacks of the Taiyue Military Region and the Taihang Military Region going?" ”

The deputy chief of general staff pointed to the map and said: "At present, the troops of our Taihang Military Region and Taiyue Military Region are relying on the Baijin Line and the Shuangqin Highway to carry out layers of blocking and reinforcing the Japanese troops in the north. ”

"After a day of fierce fighting, the Japanese advanced less than ten kilometers."

"Judging from the current situation, if the Japanese army does not increase its reinforcements,"

"It is impossible to break through the blocking positions of our Taiyue Military Region and Taihang Military Region."

At this point, the deputy chief of the general staff said with a smile: "Today, the weaponry, technical and tactical level of our Taiyue Military Region and the regiments under the Taihang Military Region is no longer the same as it was two years ago. ”

Two years ago, the Eighth Route Army had just undergone a large-scale expansion, and its combat effectiveness had fallen to the bottom.

However, after two years of battlefield training, coupled with the capture of a lot of weapons and equipment, the combat effectiveness of various units has gradually improved.

"That's not to be careless."

The boss slapped the table and said: "Telegraph to the Taiyue Military Region and the Taihang Military Region that they will stop the enemy's reinforcements at all costs, and no matter what, they will not be able to let the reinforcements of the 36th and 37th divisions reach the northwest of Shanxi!" ”

After a pause, he said: "If you telegraph the Northwest Column of Jin again, just let go of the fight!" No matter how many days they fought, there would not be a single soldier of devil reinforcements from the southeast of Jin and the north of Taiyue Mountain. ”

……

Northwest of Shanxi.

On this day, the northwestern column of Jin Province did not launch a major offensive.

Only the second detachment committed a small number of troops and launched several small attacks from the eastern block of Ping'an County, but was quickly repulsed by the Japanese.

After that, the Japanese counterattack was also repulsed by the Eighth Route Army.

After noon, the two sides tacitly chose a truce.

It has lasted for five years since the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, and the quality of the Japanese soldiers is declining, the will to fight is also declining, and the aggressiveness of the Japanese army is no longer as strong as it was at the beginning.

After realizing that the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side was not easy to provoke, the devils in Ping'an County had to choose to be reluctant with peace of mind.

Anyway, as long as it lasts until the reinforcements arrive, the Eighth Route Army will withdraw its troops by itself, so why bother desperately? Isn't it fragrant to be alive? After all, his wife and children are still in their hometown, waiting for them to go back to reunite.

By the way, when the Sino-Japanese War first broke out in 37, the devils of more than a dozen permanent divisions were all active soldiers or reserve soldiers, in vain, they were young people who had never been married, and they had nothing to worry about, so they were not afraid of death, as long as the officers instigated a few words, they could charge with bayonets without hesitation.

But now, there are a large number of reservists in the various divisions and regiments of the Japanese army, that is, soldiers in the township.

Most of these soldiers in the township are married, have wives and even children in their hometowns, so their will to fight is much weaker than that of young people on active duty and in the reserves.

The 69th Division was supplemented with a large number of soldiers in the township.

However, the truce of the Eighth Route Army is not the same as the truce of the devils.

The truce of the devils is just to steal peace, but the truce of the Eighth Route Army is only to avoid the daytime, just to avoid the devil's aviation.

After the devils recaptured Taiyuan, they repaired Xincheng Airport and Wusu Airport.

Shibata Shinichi's 9th Flying Squadron returned to Taiyuan, so it was ready to provide air fire support to the 69th Division of the Japanese Army.

The assault team and fighters of the 9th Flying Squadron are really here.

At this time, the participating troops in the Zhanggezhuang battlefield had already cleaned up the battlefield and transferred, but the participating troops in the Ping'an County battlefield had no way to transfer, and they couldn't return the occupied neighborhoods to the devils, right? After all, the second detachment also paid a lot of price to occupy these neighborhoods in the county.

So I can only suffer from the bombing of devil planes.

But fortunately, the soldiers of the second detachment were hiding in civilian buildings, and the devil planes could only bomb indiscriminately, and they did not dare to throw sulfur bombs and poison gas bombs, so the killing effect was limited.

After a few waves, the devil plane did not come.

After all, the devil's gasoline still can't be supplied openly.

Just after six o'clock in the afternoon, it was getting dark.

Kong Jie, accompanied by Guan Dashan, walked out of the shelter.

I saw a team of horses on the road, as few as thousands, and the team was several kilometers long.

Guan Dashan immediately couldn't help but say, "Commander, it's an artillery regiment!" The artillery regiment is coming to our aid! Now it's stable, and tonight I will definitely be able to take Ping'an County. ”

"That's not to be careless." Kong Jie said in a deep voice.

"Lao Guan, you personally lead a group to take the lead tonight!"

"No matter what, we must purge the devils in Ping'an County before dawn tomorrow!"

After a pause, Kong Jie said again: "I can't let Li Yunlong and Ding Wei see the jokes of our two teams." ”

Ding Wei was able to annihilate the devils who came to Anhua's aid neatly within two hours, and the casualties paid were very small, which made Kong Jie's face feel a little unbearable.

Because although the offensive of their second detachment was also very fierce, they continuously broke through the outer defense line and fortifications of Ping'an County in a short period of time, and even occupied a small part of the city's blocks, but the price paid was not small, and in less than two hours of fighting, nearly 1,000 people were killed and wounded!

Guan Dashan knows Kong Jie's thoughts.

At that moment, Guan Dashan said: "Commander, you can rest assured, you will definitely take it before dawn!" ”

After that, Guan Dashan turned around and hurried away, while Kong Jie strode towards Cao Sanlian.

"Lao Cao, oops, you're here." Kong Jie said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

"It's not because of the devil's plane." Cao Sanlian reluctantly said, "Otherwise, I would have come early." ”

"But it's not too late to come over." Kong Jie said, "I'll ask you brothers from the artillery regiment tonight." ”

"Don't worry, old Kong." Cao Sanlian patted his chest and said, "What is the relationship between you and me?" As long as your brother speaks, our artillery regiment will also help you bomb Ping'an County into slag with all your family resources. ”

"It's free to be blown into slag, there are still so many people in the city."

Kong Jie waved his hand and said, "You just need to help us get rid of the barricades on the street, as well as the strongholds that have been transformed and reinforced by devils at various street intersections." ”

"That's even more fine." Cao Sanlian said, "It's just a piece of cake." ”

After a pause, Cao Sanlian shouted again: "Pass my order and prepare to assemble." ”

The caravan of horses that were moving along the road stopped and began to unload the mountain cannon parts.

……

Ping'an County, the headquarters of the 291st Infantry Wing.

Yoshiro Utada has rushed into an ant on a hot pot.

The Eighth Route Army had already advanced the M1A1 75mm mountain gun made by the beautiful country into the city, and launched a direct fire at the barricades built by the Japanese army on the street.

Not only the ring barricades, but even the strongholds are under threat.

The Japanese army has occupied Ping'an County for more than five years, and has still made a lot of deployments, especially in the past year or so, with the gradual growth of the Eighth Route Army in the northwest of Shanxi, the Japanese army realized that the Eighth Route Army would launch a large-scale counteroffensive sooner or later, so it made defensive arrangements in Ping'an County in advance.

The main thing is to seize the relatively sturdy houses at the intersections.

These houses were then rebuilt and strengthened to become strongholds.

These positions are usually equipped with a detachment of infantry plus a machine gun.

With dozens of such strongholds scattered across various street corners, Yoshiro Utada was still somewhat confident in street fighting, but only if the Eighth Route Army could not dispatch artillery.

But that's the cruel reality.

The more you are afraid of something, the more you will come.

Yoshiro Utada was afraid that the Eighth Route Army would use artillery,

As a result, the Eighth Route Army really pushed the mountain artillery into the city and used it as a flat-fire artillery.

"Report, the No. 3 Ring Street Stack on Dongmen Avenue has been destroyed!"

"Report, the No. 6 ring barricade on North Gate Street has been destroyed!"

"Report, the stronghold at the mouth of Cangcao Street has been destroyed, and the Eighth Route Army has broken into Cangcao Street!"

With the Eighth Route Army mobilizing a large number of artillery to participate in the battle, the situation in Ping'an County suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse, and the defense system built by the Japanese army relying on the streets and alleys and strongholds at various street corners was simply vulnerable.

"Yaga!" Utada Yoshiro gritted his teeth and said, "Order, all infantry brigades immediately abandon all the barricades, withdraw into the houses on both sides of the street, and start a house-by-house street battle with the Eighth Route Army!" ”

"Hello!" The heralds immediately split up and left.

Yoshiro Utada turned his gaze back to the communications captain.

"Mori-kun!" Yoshiro Utada said with a dark face, "Call the division headquarters again and ask for urgent reinforcements!" In four hours, if the reinforcements from the division headquarters still cannot reach the county seat of Ping'an within four hours, then the 291st Infantry Wing and more than 2,300 people under Yoshiro Utada will have to sacrifice their lives for His Majesty the Emperor. ”

"Hello." The communications captain paused.

Then shoot the telegram with extremely fast hand speed.

……

Heyuan County, Column Headquarters.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the brigade commander finally had time to eat.

The brigade commander stared at the bowl of braised pork and a large bowl of white rice in front of him and asked, "Li Yunlong, what's going on?" ”

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "Brigade Commander, isn't this afraid that you will stay up too hard day and night, so I specially got some delicious food for you to supplement your nutrition." ”

"Nonsense!" The brigade commander was on fire all of a sudden.

"Do you know what the fuck you're doing? Lao Tzu is not those warlords of the Kuomintang! ”

"Lao Tzu didn't do the revolution for personal enjoyment, what the hell do you think Lao Tzu thinks? Huh? What Lao Tzu hates most in his life is to be special! ”

Li Yunlong was trained by the brigade commander to be like a gray grandson.

Standing next to him with a broken face, he didn't dare to say a word.

The brigade commander became more and more angry, and he stretched out his hand to drop the braised pork to the ground.

As a result, it swept on Wang Ye's arm, and it was Wang Ye who protected the braised pork at the last moment.

"Xiao Wang, what are you doing?" The brigade commander said with a dark face, "What? Do you want to be specialized? ”

"Brigade Commander, what you say is not objective." Wang Ye was not afraid of the brigade commander, and said calmly, "You can play a routine to trick the boss into eating meat, why can't our regiment commander invite you to eat meat?" ”

"You can't lie to the boss that eating meat is to increase his nutrition,"

"Our head invites you to eat meat to engage in specialization, which is unreasonable for you."

Hearing this, Li Yunlong secretly gave Wang Ye a thumbs up behind the brigade commander's back, as if in, Xiao Wang, you are really good, dare to talk to the brigade commander like this.

The brigade commander was also.

"Can the fuck be the same?"

The brigade commander said angrily: "Lao Tzu paid his own allowance at that time. ”

"Brigadier Commander, your words are even less objective." Wang Ye replied, "You haven't done an investigation, how can you conclude that our regiment commander is not out of his own pocket, but the funds of the three detachments?" ”

"Uh......" The brigade commander was stunned when he heard this, as if it was true.

At that moment, the brigade commander turned around and asked Li Yunlong: "Is it your own pocket?" ”

Li Yunlong smiled, salivated and said, "Brigade commander, I borrowed Xiao Wang." ”

Wang Ye picked up the braised pork and said to Li Yunlong: "Regiment commander, the brigade commander doesn't want to eat meat, let's eat it." ”

After that, Wang Ye made a gesture to pour meat into his rice bowl.

"Wait, you put it down." The brigade commander said angrily, "Who doesn't want to eat meat?" ”

Li Yunlong hurriedly picked up chopsticks and sandwiched the largest and fattest piece of fat for the brigade commander.

The brigade commander took a bite, only to feel that his mouth was full of oil, so he praised it repeatedly: "Well, it's delicious, I haven't eaten meat for almost a year, it's delicious, Xiao Wang, Li Yunlong, you two eat it too." ”

Wang Ye would not be polite to the brigade commander, and immediately picked up the rice bowl and ate.

Li Yunlong was much more restrained in front of the brigade commander, and only dared to eat sour radish.

Halfway through eating, Cheng Yue walked in and reported: "Captain, Ping'an County has entered a house-to-house street battle. ”

"Got it." Wang Ye waved his hand to retreat Cheng Yue, and said to the brigade commander and Li Yunlong, "Brigade commander, regiment commander, the devils in Ping'an County have entered the stage of dying and struggling, and it seems that the battle is about to end." ”

"Is it almost over?" The brigade commander was stunned and asked, "You have been with me before, house-to-house street fighting is the most dangerous and difficult battle, and the casualty ratio of the offensive and defensive sides is infinitely close to one to one?" ”

"Brigadier, this is different." Wang Ye smiled.

"We have the help of the people."

……

Ping'an County, street fighting battlefield.

Guan Dashan personally led two elite veterans and was advancing house by house.

Ping'an County is an old-fashioned county town, and the private houses in the city are cramped and cramped, and many of the adjacent houses have no earthen walls between them, only a thin layer of wooden planks.

Such a wall of planks can neither hold off bullets, let alone bombs!

But considering that there might be people behind the wooden wall, Guan Dashan did not dare to open fire rashly.

Guan Dashan slung the submachine gun to his chest, and pointed at a soldier with his free left hand, and then at the thin wooden wall blocking their way.

The warrior understood, and it was a kick to go up.

With a thud, the plank wall was immediately kicked down by the warrior.

The moment he kicked the plank wall, the warrior fell sideways.

At the moment when the warrior fell to the ground, two streamers of light shot along with the sound of a gunshot, almost grazing the top of the warrior's head.

In the next moment, Guan Dashan and another soldier pulled the trigger at the same time.

"Da Da Da!" Two dazzling tongues of fire instantly swept into the opposite room.

The two devils hiding inside were instantly beaten into a sieve by the dense bullets.

In close-range street fighting, the imitation Thomson submachine gun still has an advantage over the 38 big cover.

After waiting for ten seconds, Guan Dashan quietly entered the next room with two soldiers.

Outside, there was a pile of debris on the street that had been ignited by a bomb and was burning brightly.

Through the light that came through the cracks in the doors and windows, you could see the scene inside the house faintly.

Suddenly, the three submachine guns of Guan Dashan and the two fighters were pointed at a corner.

But at the moment when they were about to pull the trigger, Guan Dashan and they stopped stiffly.

Because hiding in the corner of the house is not a devil, but a woman, and the woman is holding a child who looks to be three or five years old at most.

The woman looked a little scared.

The young child stared at Guan Dashan with big black eyes.

"Don't be afraid, girl." Guan Dashan said in a very soft voice, "Eighth Route Army." ”

Hearing the three words of the Eighth Route Army, the woman was no longer afraid, as if these three words had some kind of magic that could calm people's minds.

Guan Dashan asked softly again, "Are there any other devils at home?" ”

The woman immediately stretched out her hand and silently pointed to the inside.

Guan Dashan asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone else in the family?" ”

The woman shook her head silently, a thin mist floating in her eyes.

Guan Dashan didn't dare to look at the woman's eyes anymore, and gave instructions to the two soldiers behind him.

The next moment, Guan Dashan and the two fighters raised their imitation Thomson submachine guns at the same time, and fired at the inside of the room, until one magazine was finished.

A muffled grunt rang out in the back room.

When Guan Dashan and the others rushed into the inner room again, they saw that a devil officer had fallen in a pool of blood.

This devil officer's entire chest and abdomen were beaten into a sieve, and it was absolutely impossible to save him.

However, Guan Dashan still kicked aside the Wang Ba box in the hand of the devil officer at the first time, and then kicked the devil officer's neck again, breaking his neck bone.

"Sister, hurry up and take the child to the outside of the city."

Guan Dashan motioned for the woman to retreat with the child from the passage they had come.

Seeing the woman walk away with the child in her arms, Guan Dashan led two more soldiers to the wooden wall on the other side of the house, and then nodded at the other soldier again.

The warrior also kicked hard against the plank wall, and then fell to the ground.

The fragile wooden wall was kicked down, and another dazzling tongue of fire erupted from the opposite side.

However, this time it was not a 38 big cover, but a crooked sub-machine gun, and Guan Dashan, who was hiding on both sides of the gap, and another soldier quickly lay down, and then climbed to the distance with their hands and feet as fast as they could.

But the soldier who had just kicked down the plank wall had no chance of escaping.

The Devil Heavy lowered the muzzle of his gun slightly, and the bullet hit the soldier.

But the warrior still threw a grenade at the devil before he died.

"Boom!" In the fierce explosion, the machine-gun fire of the devils stopped abruptly.
