When the fierce battle in the county seat of Linxi was in full swing, Matsui Ishine learned that Linxi's devil defenders had been attacked by Li Yunlong's north, and immediately ordered Kagesa Zhenzhao to draw all the cavalry from the rest of the 3rd Division.

After that, from Xindian near Chifeng City, all the cavalry, even the heralds on horseback, were gathered under Chifeng City from the Japanese troops stationed in Jianping.

It wasn't until more than forty minutes or so, under Chifeng City, that Matsui Shigen saw the devil cavalry gathered!

"Shadow Zuo-kun, only such a few cavalry?" Matsui Shigen stood at the head of the north gate of Chifeng, looking at the cavalry troops gathered from all over the city, and frowned.

Kagezo Zhenzhao stood beside Matsui Shigen, and said with a wry smile when he heard this: "Your Excellency, General, this has already transferred all the cavalry belonging to the imperial army garrison in the direction of Jianping. That's all there is to it, but it's already good. At the moment there were more than two thousand cavalry assembled, enough to carry mortars, light and heavy machine guns, and some submachine guns, and the horse guns rushed to Linxi for reinforcements. ”。

"Yes, better than nothing!"

Matsui Ishine said with a gloomy face: "Order this cavalry to go north immediately and quickly reinforce Hattori Musashi!" ”。

"Hay, Your Excellency." Kagezo Zhenzhao nodded, and then waved his hand to signal a devil staff officer on the side to go and execute it immediately.

Matsui Ishine then said to Kagesa Zhenzhao: "The matter has come to this, we have no other way!" Although the air force fighters have already headed north, we have now sent 2,000 cavalry to the north at a rapid pace. But in a short time, Lindsy's defenders may not hold out for long. We're here in Chifeng now, and there's no role either. ”。

"What does Your Excellency mean?" Shadow Zuo Zhenzhao said in a condensed voice.

Matsui Ishine smashed his fist on the battlements of the city wall in front of him, "Order the rest of the 3rd Division, end the rest, and assemble to the north!" Hurry up and drop! I don't believe it anymore, I can't catch Li Yunlong. ”

Seeing that Matsui Shigen looked a little crazy, although Kagezo Zhenzhao had the intention to persuade him, he finally paused heavily and said, "Hai, Your Excellency General." ”。

Matsui Shigen nodded, and Kagesa Zhenzhao actually hurried to carry out the old devil's order!

It's just that not long after Kagesa Zhenzhao left, a devil communications staff officer hurriedly came to Matsui Shigen, "Report to Your Excellency the General, Lin Xi is in a hurry!" ”

Matsui Ishine snatched the Japanese army's urgent telegram from the county town of Linxi, read it carefully!

"A bunch of rubbish!"

Matsui Ishine scolded, but still ordered: "Call back Hattori Musashi and strictly order them to wait for help." Cavalry reinforcements had quickly moved north, keeping them holding on. If you can't do anything, break out, just entangle the main force of Li Yunlong's department. ”。

"Hay, Your Excellency." The devil's communications staff officer paused heavily, and then walked away.

As for why Matsui Ishine said that he could let Hattori Musashi decide to choose to break out when the final battle was unfavorable, it was that Matsui Ishine felt that there must be a Japanese army to follow the main force of Li Yunlong's department.

In this way, once Matsui Ishine led his troops north to Linxi and other places, according to the information left by the Japanese troops, it should be possible to catch up with Li Yunlong's main force.

"Hattori Musashi, you have to defend Linxi!" Matsui Shigen said in his heart!

It's just that at this time, in the county town of Linxi, after the northern position of the county town guarded by Jiro Dino was lost, Hattori Musashi withdrew all the defenders of the remaining peripheral positions and some unimportant positions in the county into the city, and the fierce battle with the troops of the new regiment under the command of Li Yunlong and others was fierce.

"Boom, boom!!!"

One after another, the whizzing shells fell to the ground and exploded, and one after another explosions blew up a Japanese blocking position on the street.

After the explosion was over, all that was left of the devil's blocking position was some severed limbs and fragments of weapons that had been blown up! Search

"Eight grid tooth road, resist, resist!"

In the county seat, in the streets to the north, in a hidden ruin, the chief of staff of Hattori Musashi, who was on the front line, roared angrily, and after killing a few devil deserters, he pressed all the devils to defend to the death.

In the vast crowd of attackers, in Di Yezhen's sight, he was still very frightened.

"Chief of Staff, Chief of Staff, I can't stand it! The opposing mortars and infantry artillery all arrived with the army and bombarded it. Heavy casualties in all units of the blocking force! ”

A devil squadron leader ran in front of Di Yezhen with a lot of urine, and there was already blood on his head, crying miserably!

"Eight Tooth Road!"

Di Yezhen grabbed this devil squadron leader and roared angrily: "We are soldiers of the empire, and we will not retreat!" What's more, if you retreat, what will you do next? That's to the captain's headquarters! What's more, we don't have any extra troops now, so let's defend it! ”。

"Hay, Chief of Staff."

The leader of the devil squadron also knew that at this time, there were less than nine hundred Japanese soldiers left in Linxi County.

After the northern defenders commanded by Jiro Dino were completely annihilated, there were still more than 900 remaining devils at that time. However, after the other side entered the city, the Japanese army was defeated by the firepower of the street and street battles, and suffered heavy casualties.

The rifles in the hands of the first-line infantry of the little devils are all 38-type rifles, although the range is long! But in street fighting, this advantage has become a disadvantage.

All units of the new regiment were equipped with a large number of Jin-made submachine guns, captured submachine guns and light machine guns, and the firepower was sufficient, and the Japanese casualties in the melee firepower were heavy.

At this time, the leader of the devil squadron knew that the Japanese defenders in Linxi County were probably not even 800 people.

Although Di Yezhen personally came to the front line to supervise the battle, Li Yunlong had already commanded all the troops to besiege and enter the county seat. In addition, an encirclement posture was formed around Hattori Musashi's brigade headquarters, and the offensive was strengthened.

At this time, Hattori Musashi kept receiving reports from heralds asking for help from all over the place, but they all waved their hands and quietly told them that there were no reinforcements and that they would defend to the end.

"Buzz !!"

Suddenly, Hattori Musashi heard the roar of planes in the distance over the south of the county, and a spirit, Hattori Musashi hurriedly climbed to the roof of the headquarters, picked up the binoculars and looked at the sky in the distance to the south.

"Hahaha, the Imperial fighter has finally arrived!"

Hattori Musashi was overjoyed, grabbed a devil staff officer beside him and roared angrily: "Hurry up, contact the flight commander of the air force, provide them with bombing coordinates, and bomb a new group for me!" Hurry up and drop! ”。

"Hay, Captain."

The Devil's Staff Officer was also overjoyed to leave to radio contact the Devil's flight commander and provide coordinates for the Devil's fighter to bomb.

And for the first time, Li Yunlong also heard the roar of the devil fighter coming rapidly from the south, picked up the binoculars and looked at it, and his eyes were suddenly solemn.

"Order all units to stop attacking and take cover!" Li Yunlong also had no choice but to give such an order to let the subordinates pay attention to concealment.

Since this time it was a mobile operation, it was impossible to carry anti-aircraft guns, especially anti-aircraft heavy machine guns. Therefore, in the face of the air raid and bombing of the devil's fighters, we can only deal with it in this way.
