Chapter 42: Breaking the North Gate

At the same time, Li Yunlong commanded more than 7,000 men and horses of the Independent Regiment to besiege Ping'an County.

Somewhere in Dagu Mountain, the headquarters of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army.

"Doot, doot, dot!!"

In the early morning, the radio in the regimental headquarters of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army continued to sound one after another.

"Tuanza, Tuanza, it's a fight!!"

After receiving an urgent report from the communications staff officer of the regimental headquarters, Lieutenant Colonel Fang Ligong, chief of staff of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army, hurriedly rushed to the regimental headquarters command room with a telegram, and rushed to Chu Yunfei to say.

Chu Yunfei looked at the map at this time, and when he heard this, he looked up at Fang Ligong's serious face, and said with a smile: "What's the fight?" ”。

"Could it be that the devil has come to beat my 358th regiment?"

Fang Ligong shook his head and said, "No!! ”。

"It's Li Yunlong's kid who fought with the Sakata United, don't you know? The county seat of Heyuan was taken by the independent regiment, just this early morning and night. ”

After a pause, Fang Ligong continued, "This is the news that our brother who was lurking in Heyuan County sent back with a secret radio station, and it was sent back after it was confirmed, and it was guaranteed to be accurate. ”

"The most shocking thing is that according to reliable intelligence, Li Yunlong is commanding at least 5,000 men and horses to besiege Ping'an County, and the battle has begun."

When Chu Yunfei heard this, he immediately snatched the telegram from Fang Ligong's hand and stared at it.

In less than half a minute, I had already read the contents of the telegram.

"Hiss!!"

Chu Yunfei secretly gasped, Li Yunlong, this kid is so awesome, he actually dares to fight Ping'an County.

"Why did Li Yunlong take Heyuan County?"

The spies of the 358th Regiment lurking in Heyuan County only knew that Heyuan County was fighting fiercely in the early morning and night, but it was not until dawn that they were sure that it was the people of the Independent Regiment who took Heyuan County.

It's just that no one knows why Li Yunlong suddenly took Heyuan County.

However, now Li Yunlong is besieging Ping'an County, which is beyond Chu Yunfei's expectations.

Lieutenant Colonel Fang Ligong on the side shrugged, and he didn't know, after all, the time was too short to explore the reason for the exchange.

"Report!!"

At this moment, a staff officer on one side of the regimental headquarters walked over and reported: "Report to the regimental headquarters, the second battalion called, and found at least one squadron of Japanese troops from the north of the direction of Dagu Town, rushing towards Dagu Town. ”。

"The target is not clear, is it the Great Lonely Town, or where? Please give us instructions! ”

Hearing this, Chu Yunfei immediately looked at the map, and his fingers slid on the map.

"Horn!!"

Chu Yunfei quickly knocked on the table and said, "This is to pass through the second battalion defense area and want to reinforce Ping'an County." ”。

"Li Yunlong, this kid besieged Ping'an County, and forced Sakata Shinjiro to be anxious, this is the devil's deployment of troops to reinforce Ping'an County."

Fang Ligong nodded and said, "Tuanzuo, what should I do then?" ”。

"A squadron of devils passing through the second battalion defense area, do you want to open the road?"

Chu Yunfei waved his hand and said, "What time is it?" ”。

"Send this group of devils over, won't Li Yunlong's troops besieging Ping'an County be attacked! I, Chu Yunfei, have not been so despicable yet. ”

After thinking about it, Chu Yunfei said: "Let the second battalion divide the troops to block the attack and control the commanding heights of the road that the devil reinforcements must pass along the way." ”。

"Just delay the devil's reinforcements! Li Yunlong hit Ping'an County, and I, Chu Yunfei, also helped the field!! ”

"Tell the brothers, just be clever and block it."

When Fang Ligong heard this, he stood up and said: "Yes, Tuanza!" ”。

Immediately, Fang Ligong immediately sent someone to order the second battalion to lay ambushes on both sides of the road where the devil's reinforcements might pass through within the defense area under his jurisdiction, control the commanding heights, and delay the Japanese reinforcements.

The battle for Pyongan County had begun, and Sakata Shinjiro continued to send orders back to the Japanese troops in the strongholds around Pyongan County.

A squadron, a squadron, and even the Imperial Association Army all sent reinforcements to Ping'an County from everywhere.

Ding Wei of the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army and Kong Jie of the New 2nd Regiment both received orders from the 386 Brigade Headquarters, asking them to command the post headquarters and delay the Japanese reinforcements passing through their respective defense areas to support Li Yunlong's siege operation.

All of a sudden, the entire northwest of Jin was suddenly stirred.

At this time, outside the north gate of Ping'an County, on the hillside in front of Li Yunlong's temporary field headquarters.

Li Yunlong and political commissar Zhao Gang were standing on the hillside and watching the siege operation condescendingly.

"Boom, boom!!"

"Dada, dada, dada!!"

After the artillery fire was extended to suppress the fire of the devils at the head of the city, the infantry of the besieging units began to launch an offensive against the puppet army positions outside the city.

Under the supervision of the devil machine gun at the head of the city, the puppet army outside the city was stunned and fought back.

All of a sudden, the gunfire became intense.

The puppet army desperately blocked the attack outside the city, and the fight was very brave, and Li Yunlong, who watched it, couldn't help but complain.

"Special mother, this group of two devils took refuge in the devils, and their combat power soared all of a sudden, and they still dare to beat us?"

Li Yunlong snorted and said with a sneer.

Zhao Gang on the side said: "Lao Li, I see that this group of puppet soldiers is under the deterrence of the devil machine gun at the head of the city, and this is a hard fight. ”。

"If there is no machine gun deterrence from devils, this group of second devils will definitely be defeated with one blow."

Li Yunlong nodded, and in the line of sight of the telescope, most of the puppet army positions outside the city had actually been captured by the siege troops.

The commander of the first battalion, Zhang Dabiao, commanded the first battalion of the headquarters to attack the north gate, and under the cover of Wang Chenghai's artillery fire, the strength of the puppet army outside the north gate was almost eliminated.

"If these two devils don't surrender, then they will all be destroyed."

Li Yunlong sneered, and then beckoned the herald to order: "Order Zhang Dabiao to break the city as soon as possible." ”。

"Within an hour, take Ping'an County as soon as possible."

The herald replied, "Yes, Commander." ”。

Then he rushed away to give the order.

Soon, Zhang Dabiao, who got the order, personally took a few guards and commanded from the front.

At this time, the puppet army outside the north gate had been defeated, and more than half of the puppet army waited until a battalion of soldiers attacked and threw away their weapons and surrendered.

The rest of the puppet army that did not surrender was annihilated by a battalion commanded by Zhang Dabiao.

"Quick, let Wang Chenghai's kid, concentrate the artillery and blow up the city gate for me!!"

Zhang Dabiao saw that the artillery fire had suppressed the devil's firepower at the head of the city, and then the position of the puppet army outside the city had been basically controlled, so he immediately asked the herald to concentrate artillery on Wang Chenghai in the back to bombard the north city gate.

"Yes, Battalion Commander."

When the heralds of the first battalion heard the news, they rushed back.

In less than a minute, Wang Chenghai, who followed the infantry forward, personally operated a Type 92 infantry cannon and directly aimed at the north city gate.

"Boom !!"

Precise artillery bombardment, a cannonball roared and smashed into the north gate of Ping'an County, directly blowing up the north gate.

"Rush !!"

Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately roared angrily and commanded the soldiers of the first battalion to charge.

When the devils at the north gate saw that the city gate was blown open, the army's heart was immediately moved, and they hurriedly sent a team to counterattack from the city, but they were quickly defeated by a battalion of soldiers commanded by Zhang Dabiao.
