Chapter 79
In order for Sun Desheng to join his camp, Xu Tianlong chose the first option without hesitation!
No matter how many weapons are, it is not as good as a good general to join!
As for the kidnapping of Zhang Xiaoliu?
He has too few troops and can't move him for the time being, otherwise the entire Northeast Army will fight back and be attacked by the enemy from both sides and will be unable to stop him.
After only developing the troops of two divisions, we will further consult Zhang Xiaoliu, either joining forces to fight against the war or handing over the military power!
Dingdong!
The host has made a choice and the cavalry battalion will report within one day!
After Xu Tianlong made his choice, he immediately held a combat meeting, and the logistics were preparing food and grass to prepare for the next battle.
Three days later, the various departments of the Mixed Brigade had completed the assembly, and each unit marched towards Linyuan County in batches at the regiment level!
After about three days, the Mixed Brigade had basically reached Linyuan County. Xu Tianlong was not in a hurry to achieve success. The time and combat area of this combat mission were very large and it had to be carried out steadily.
The reconnaissance battalion under the Mixed Brigade took the lead in dispatching to investigate the enemy situation, and gradually figured out the layout areas and specific troops of some strongholds and checkpoints around Linyuan County.
"Let's fight him first, clean up the enemies on the periphery, and then we will deal with the enemies in the county!"
After Xu Tianlong learned of the specific deployment of the Japanese, he did not hesitate at all and immediately ordered Li Chishui's Mixed Brigade to attack!
In three days, the fortresses of more than 20 strongholds arranged by the Japanese in Linyuan County were all destroyed, and the mixed brigade was unstoppable, pushing the front line to Linyuan County.
Seeing Xu Tianlong coming in full force, the Japanese immediately asked for support from their superiors.
In less than half a day, the Japanese Command sent two more infantry brigades and an artillery brigade to support Linyuan County.
Now that the troops are at the city, Xu Tianlong is also preparing to implement the attack to the end. He issued an order that night to let Li Chishui's Mixed Brigade cooperate with the artillery regiment's attack and attack Linyuan County from three directions.
The two of them received the order from the main attacker and immediately led their men to set off. They pushed several small strongholds along the way. At 4 o'clock in the morning, before the sun rose, they started to attack!
An army of infantry was sent out, and the soldiers started firing fires on the top of the city three hundred meters outside the city gate!
"Boom!"
Mortar shells hit the city gate, and they exploded several Japanese devils who were dozing off the city on the spot.
The violent explosion also instantly woke up the Japanese troops who were resting. Hundreds of Japanese soldiers climbed onto the wall within ten minutes and started shooting at the offensive troops outside the city to prevent them from approaching the city gate!
"Damn Chinese, they started attacking at 4:30 in the morning. Are they not sleeping?"
The Japanese captain angrily got up from the bed and climbed up to the wall of his defense to check the enemy situation. In the fire caused by the artillery fire, he also saw the dense Feng army soldiers under the city!
"Quickly, continue to send more personnel, and they must be prevented from approaching the city gate!"
When the Japanese captain saw the dense Feng army soldiers, he suddenly woke up. He thought that the Feng army would only tempt attack and harass him, but who knew that they had dispatched so many people!
This is completely the rhythm of the first battle!
Other Japanese soldiers also gathered one after another. One brigade of Japanese troops was divided into three groups, one climbed onto the city wall to shoot, the other began to arrange positions behind the city gate, carry sandbags, etc., and the other team was ready to replenish the troops on the city wall at any time.
After half an hour, both sides suffered losses, but the war did not make decisive progress.
"It's not a solution to continue like this! You must fight quickly!"
Li Chishui held the telescope and saw that the Japanese had already set up mortars on the city. He immediately knew that if the battle was not resolved as soon as possible, it would not only greatly reduce the morale of the soldiers, but also the Japanese artillery fire strikes would also cause heavy losses to his regiment!
So, Li Chishui immediately said to the correspondent, "Contact the three battalion commanders in front of them, tell them not to gather together, slow down the pace of the offensive, and wait for the support of the artillery regiment!"
“Yes, traveler!”
The communications soldiers immediately conveyed Li Chishui's orders to the commanders of the battalions on the front line. At the same time, they also ordered the artillery regiment to prepare for support according to Li Chishui's instructions!
After receiving the telegram, Yang Zhihua simply assigned a job, and personally led the first battalion of the artillery regiment and began to support the battle in the direction where Li Chishui was:
"Quick, hurry up, speed up, build the artillery position within 20 minutes!"
After Yang Zhihua felt the established location, he quickly chose a place suitable for building artillery positions, and immediately let his artillery soldiers start to work hard.
In less than 20 minutes, the artillery position was built, and the soldiers placed the howitzers collected from the truck in front of them and fixed them!
A few howitzers with powerful firepower are quietly waiting for the arrival of the firing order!
"Each team is in place! Direction...height...three rounds of volley!"
After communicating with Li Chishui's command, Yang Zhihua determined the shelling plan and prepared to use powerful firepower to attack the Japanese on the city wall. After their artillery fire destroyed the enemy's long-range firepower, the soldiers of the infantry regiment began to find ways to seize control of the city gate.
"Report! The preparations are completed in a row!"
"Report! The second company is ready!"
"Report! The third company is ready!"
"Report! Fourth Company..."
After seeing the time, Yang Zhihua immediately ordered the soldiers to load ammunition and fired the ammunition out!
"One round of ammunition, load it! Launch it quickly!"
"Boom!"
For a moment, the earth shook and the slightly trembling ground also made the Japanese defenders shout something wrong.
"Escape, evacuate quickly! Hidden! The enemy's artillery is coming..."
"Swoosh swish swish!"
As soon as the voice of the Japanese captain fell, dozens of shells had already flew in the air, targeting their area!
The Japanese who had no time to retreat were buried in a sea of fire in an instant!
"Boom..."
The soldiers outside the city couldn't help but shout in depth when they saw the smoke from the walls. In this regard, the city's tough battle has to be seen by artillery soldiers!
"Brothers, attack according to the plan!"
"Ship three and four, implement the blasting plan!"
While the Japanese were suffocating by the cannon regiment, the infantry went out again, shooting at the Japanese soldiers on the city wall while covering the other brothers' location near the city gate!
Two squads, nearly 30 soldiers, after losing two soldiers, everyone also arrived at the city gate smoothly, quickly placed explosive packs, and then began to retreat to both sides along the base of the city wall, pulling out the detonation line!
"Detonate!"
After everyone withdrew more than 100 meters, with the order of a squad leader, the soldier immediately pressed the detonator in his hand, and heard a "boom". Then, the unbreakable city gate was immediately exploded!
"Brothers, kill in, liberate Linyuan County, and slaughter the Eastern Pig!"
At this moment, Li Chishui was so excited that he could not suppress his excitement that he personally came to the front line and rushed into the city gate with many soldiers!
"Nani? The north city gate was broken so quickly? Bagaya Road! What are you doing for food? Immediately send more people to stop the enemy from entering the city! The soldiers on the city wall will leave a part of them to continue to stop the enemy's follow-up troops, and the rest will go down to defend immediately!"
The Japanese captain was just pulled out of the ruins by someone, and then he received the news that the city gate was broken.
Fortunately, he set up a position inside the city gate in advance. Otherwise, the soldiers of the Feng army would have already killed the city gate tower at this time!
A large number of Japanese troops hurriedly went to the position downstairs to defend under the command of the captain and the squadron leader!
"Brig Commander, the Japanese are so fucking cunning. They set up positions at the corner, and our brothers can't rush over!"
The guard looked excited and had a dusty face. He said to Li Chishui, "There are basically no cover there. Our people have been beaten back three times! Now some of them are stuck in the city gate!"
"I understand. Let our regiment's artillery battalion use mortars to shoot out the firefighting space. Just a gang of Japanese soldiers, without the city walls, and want to stop these two thousand of us? Fart!"
Li Chishui understood that it would definitely not work without breaking through the positions set up by the Japanese in front. If the people in front cannot enter, the soldiers behind can only be blocked in the rear.
Even after someone gave up the passage, dozens of artillery soldiers carried mortars and immediately supported the mortars about 60 meters away from the enemy's position.
Some grenade launcher combat squads around also placed portable grenade launchers in front of them and began to pour thunder on the Japanese!
"Boom!"
The shells crossed the sky and landed straight in the Japanese positions. For a moment, the Japanese soldiers who were already under great pressure were also indescribable to the point of being bombed. Even if they hid behind the bunker, they were ruthlessly harvested by the shells from time to time.
Li Chishui roared angrily, and several company soldiers rushed forward, and while the Japanese were unable to fight back, they frantically suppressed their firepower.
Chapter completed!
