Chapter 82: Concentrate Your Forces, Hold on and Wait for Help!
"See!!"
Kazuki Yamamoto also ran out of the brigade headquarters, and when he looked up, he saw the explosion and fire in the XC area illuminating the night sky, and it was on a large scale.
"Could it be that Li Yunlong really attacked Qingzhou City at night and copied the strategy of seizing the city of Heyuan County?"
Kazuki Yamamoto frowned and couldn't help but say.
Seeing this, the deputy on the side, Takeba Jiro Shaosa, said: "Your Excellency, from the light of the explosion and the sound of the explosion, there are at least ten mortars. ”。
"With so many mortars, there must be a lot of enemy troops coming."
Yamamoto Kazuki nodded with a gloomy face, waved his hand and said to Takeba Jiro: "Call the leader of the 4th Infantry Squadron of the Riya Brigade stationed at the West Gate and ask, what is the situation at the West Gate now?" ”。
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Jiro Takeba hurriedly ran back to the brigade headquarters, picked up the phone on the table and was about to call the leader of the devil squadron guarding the west gate.
But at this time, accompanied by the explosion of signal flares, after the attack began.
More than 2,000 people from the first battalion and the third battalion under the command of Wang Huaibao, commander of the third battalion of the independent regiment, divided their troops and began to attack the west, south and north gates in a roundabout way.
Soon, after waiting for the defenders of the West Gate to report that the enemy was attacking from behind, they were trying to resist.
The devil defenders of the other three gates were also attacked one after another, and they urgently called the brigade headquarters in the city to ask for reinforcements.
"Eight Grids, order them to resist!"
At this time, Ishiya Toshio Shaozuo, who had previously mastered the Japanese troops in Qingzhou City, was also shocked by the loud explosion and came back from outside, and after receiving the urgent reports from various doors, he immediately shouted angrily at the squadron leaders under his command who asked for support on the phone.
"Captain, captain, there are too many enemy troops, and Ximen can't stand it."
"Captain, the north gate was also attacked by the enemy from behind, it seems that a divine soldier descended from the sky, we can't stand it."
"Hey, hey, hey!!"
Riya Toshio soon couldn't hear the calls of the defenders at the west gate and the north gate, and jumped to his feet in a hurry.
Kazuki Yamamoto, on the other hand, was under the lights, looking at the map.
"How's the situation of the Imperial Allied Army on the periphery of the moat?"
At this time, it has been five minutes since the battle began, and the defenders of the west and north gates are afraid that something has happened.
Kazuki Yamamoto asked Toshio Ritani.
"It's not good!!"
Riya Toshio pointed to the map of Qingzhou City and said, "A large number of enemy troops seem to have emerged from the ground and suddenly appeared in the city. ”。
"The defenders of the West Gate and the North Gate are afraid that they have been defeated, and it is estimated that the enemy army has rushed out from the West Gate and the North Gate to fight the flank of the Imperial Alliance. The Imperial Allied Army, I am afraid, will also be quickly defeated by the enemy. ”
Before Yamamoto could speak, the phone on the desk rang again.
"Tick Bell, Tick Bell!!"
Seeing this, Toshio Riya immediately picked up the phone and leaned the microphone to his ear, "Nani? Got it! You're going to hold on, hey, hey, hey? Hey, hey, hey? ”
After hanging up the phone, Iriya Toshio said to Yamamoto Kazuki: "Your Excellency, the situation is not good. ”。
"The Imperial Alliance army outside the North Gate has been defeated, and most of the defenders of the North Gate have been annihilated by the enemy, it is the Eighth Route Army!"
Hearing this, Yamamoto Kazuki's face was gloomy, "It's Li Yunlong's independent regiment!" It's really a sneak attack on Qingzhou City, it seems that our previous judgment was correct, Li Yunlong did not withdraw from Ping'an County, and Qingzhou City is another target for him to solve the threat on the periphery of Ping'an County. ”
"I didn't expect that Li Yunlong's attack was so fast, and he started in the early morning."
Riya Toshio said: "Your Excellency, the situation is not good. ”。
"The west gate and the north gate have probably been lost, and the Imperial Association army outside the city must have been dispersed, and the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Association army cannot be counted on, not to mention that the enemy army suddenly attacked from inside the city, and it is not possible to withstand the opponent's counterattack."
Kazuki Yamamoto had to admit that Ibuyani was right, the battle in the night was attacked by the enemy from behind, and the imperial army's will to fight could not be expected to return to the division to reinforce the city.
Although I don't know why Li Yunlong's troops appeared in the city, it is necessary to keep the brigade headquarters now.
"How's the East Gate and the South Gate going?"
Yamamoto Kazuki listened to the sound of gunfire getting closer and closer, especially the gunfire from the direction of Xicheng was even more violent, it should be a battle that suddenly started from Xicheng, and the direction of Xicheng should be the direction of the main attack.
"The situation at the South Gate and the East Gate is not optimistic! There are already enemy detours! ”
Riya Shounan pointed to the map and said, "How could Li Yunlong's troops suddenly appear in the city?" ”。
"Our previous defensive deployments were all external, and this time it's troublesome, Your Excellency Dazuo."
Yamamoto Kazuki now doesn't know why Li Yunlong's troops suddenly appeared in the city, which makes the fortifications that he and Ishiya Toshio had worked hard to build on the periphery of the moat outside Qingzhou City already useless and finished.
Obviously, there must be a way to get into the city.
But now is not the time to discuss this!
Yamamoto Kazuki listened to the shouts and guns coming from the direction of Xicheng, and immediately said: "The enemy army appeared in the city and suddenly attacked, and the backs of our squadrons guarding the city gate have been exposed under the guns of the other party. ”。
"While the defenders of the south gate and the east gate are still there, order them to fight and retreat, and withdraw to the area around the brigade headquarters."
Riya Toshio nodded and immediately said, "I will immediately ask the defenders of the south gate and the east gate to withdraw to the headquarters of the city headquarters." ”。
Kazuki Yamamoto nodded, but his face became solemn.
The enemy's main attack direction is obviously from the direction of the West Gate, and there is a violent killing in the city, and they don't even have enough time to react!
"Baga, Li Yunlong, how did you get in?"
Kazuki Yamamoto gritted his teeth and roared.
At this time, Li Yunlong, who was being roared and nagged by Yamamoto Kazuki, had already commanded Zhang Dabiao and others to follow the main street of Xicheng all the way, and had already crossed three intersecting intersections in a row.
At this time, it was less than 300 meters away from the headquarters of the Japanese army defending the city in the city.
"Boom, boom!"
"Da Da Da!!"
At the intersection of the north and the south, there were barricades built by devils, and I saw that the devils actually had seven or eight grenadiers and several light and heavy machine guns suddenly firing.
The fighters of the 1st battalion of the independent regiment, who rushed to the forefront, were hit and several were killed on the spot.
"Hide, shoot!!"
Li Yunlong, who was concise and to the point, shouted, and immediately all the soldiers of the independent regiment who charged immediately hid on both sides of the street and fired covertly.
"Wang Chenghai, you kid come up quickly, bang it!"
Li Yunlong saw that there was a devil's fortification at another street corner, and immediately shouted to Wang Chenghai behind him.
"Commander, here!!"
Wang Chenghai had already seen the devil's machine-gun firepower, and immediately ordered the artillery to set up the artillery.
"Tom !!"
Seven or eight mortar shells roared up, and immediately smashed heavily into the blocking position at the entrance of the devil's street in the night, exploding clouds of gunpowder smoke and flames.
"Good job, Wang Chenghai!"
Seeing that the devil's firepower point was blown over, Li Yunlong shouted, "Brothers, rush!" ”
"Up, keep up with the regimental leader!!"
Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, saw that Li Yunlong was taking the lead, and immediately commanded the troops to follow up.
Soon, the news that the independent regiment commanded by Li Yunlong and others, who were approaching, had reached less than 300 meters from the brigade headquarters and returned to the city defense brigade headquarters, and the faces of Yamamoto Kazuki and Ritani Toshio and others changed greatly.
"Concentrate your forces and hold on for help!!"
Yamamoto Kazuki had already heard from the sound of gunfire that the incoming independent regiment was likely to be Li Yunlong's main force, definitely not less than three thousand.
The west and north gates of the city have now been lost, and the defenders of the south and east gates do not know if they can all be withdrawn.
But in terms of troops, it has already fallen behind.
