Jundu Mountain is the key place in the north of Changping City, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The most important thing is that he is the commanding heights in the north of Changping, and once the enemy army captures the Jundu Mountain, and deploys artillery on the mountain to carry out condescending artillery bombardment, the Japanese troops defending the city will inevitably encounter heavy artillery bombardment.

At that time, heavy casualties are inevitable. Therefore, when he learned that Jundu Mountain had been lost, the captain of the 2nd Infantry Brigade of the 67th Brigade of the 89th Wing of the 27th Brigade of the Japanese garrison in the city was taken aback when he heard this, and he couldn't believe the Japanese heralds who rushed back to make an urgent report.

"Your Excellency Shaozuo, one of our squadrons hurried out of the city and stationed in Jundu Mountain. Halfway up the mountain, they encountered the headquarters of the Chinese army, and according to the soldiers who had fled, they reported that the other side had at least one regiment of troops. The little devil heralded the soldier with palpitations and paused his head to Utsunomiya Zhi, and almost patted his chest to reassure.

At this time, several devil staff officers in the little devil brigade headquarters in Changping City looked at each other when they heard this, and the elite imperial army and the Zhina army of a squadron encountered a fierce battle, but they were annihilated by the other party, which was simply incredible. When will the Chinese army be so awesome?

Utsunomiya Zhi's face was pale, and Jundu Mountain was lost, which was a mistake for the old devil at this time. The loss of Jundu Mountain made a cut in the defense of Changping City. But now, the total strength of the Japanese defenders in Changping is actually only the strength of an infantry brigade. Previously, there were two infantry brigades, but after the capture of several provinces in North China, especially Ji Province, many parts of the Japanese mobile forces in the occupied areas of Ji Province had already been assembled to the south or near the Yellow River near Zhongtiao Mountain, preparing to launch a military attack by the Nationalist Army.

Therefore, at this time, Changping City only had the strength of an infantry brigade, which was already commendable.

Now, after a squadron sent out by Utsunomiya Chi to seize Jundu Mountain has been killed and wounded, the Japanese army strength in Changping City at this time is only about 900 people. Moreover, looking at the opponent's attack posture, the firepower is really strong. No wonder Juyongguan and Nankou will be taken by each other so quickly.

"Damn! The Chinese army really me off. Order the soldiers of the Imperial Army in the whole city to enter a combat readiness posture and be ready to meet the siege of the Shina army at any time. "In the brigade headquarters, Utsunomiya Chi immediately made an order to hold the city.

At this time, he didn't have many troops, and the opponent's encounters were so awesome. Utsunomiya Chi is not an arrogant old devil, so he naturally knows that with his current strength, he can only go out of the city to meet the other party, and he can only be a dead end, or he should stick to it and wait for help.

"Hai, Your Excellency Shaozuo!" The few remaining Japanese squadron leaders in the brigade headquarters responded one after another, and then urgently went out to command the Japanese troops to go to the city to defend the city.

Utsunomiya Tomo, on the other hand, waved to his chief of staff, Captain Asai Hideto, and ordered in close proximity: "Chief of Staff, you hurry up and send a report to His Excellency the Commander of the Front Army in Beiping City, requesting reinforcements. The Eighth Route Army, which attacked the south entrance, had already arrived outside our Changping City, and the opponent's firepower was extremely strong, and it encountered a head-on exchange of fire with the Imperial Army soldiers of a squadron defending the city in the process of seizing the Jundu Mountain. Most of the warriors of the Imperial Army of one of my squadrons were killed, so the opponent's firepower was very strong. The content of the emergency telegram from the captain of the Nankou garrison is the same! ”。

"Understand, Your Excellency Shaozuo, obey your orders!" Asai Xiuto nodded and said in response, and immediately hurriedly walked to the place where the radio station was placed on the side of the headquarters, and sent a report directly to Beiping City.

At this time, the troops commanded by Li Yunlong, who captured Jundu Mountain, left an artillery on the mountain and quickly built an artillery position under the command of Wang Chengzhu. Li Yunlong led the rest of the troops to encircle the city of Changping, and carried out a tentative attack on the Japanese defending the city with a small force.

After the exploratory attack ended, Duan Peng and others, who had previously arrived in Changping and had conducted military reconnaissance in advance of the large army, also withdrew to the temporary headquarters of Li Yunlong and others outside the city.

"Regiment commander, according to reconnaissance, the Japanese army defending the city has only one infantry brigade, and the strength is more than 300 more than the Japanese army at the south entrance. It was almost a full-fledged infantry brigade, and now after we annihilated them after an exchange of fire with a Japanese squadron that had seized Jundu Mountain, there were only about 900 Japanese troops left in the city at this time. Duan Peng personally reported to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong nodded when he heard this, looked around and pointed to Zhang Dabiao, Zhou Hua and others who were gathered around, and said: "Judging from the map, once Changping is captured by our department, Beiping will be close at hand. To tell the truth, when we entered the city of Changping, it was already a great shock to Tada Jun in Beiping City. Hey. Without further ado, hit him. ”。

Everyone laughed, obviously agreeing with Li Yunlong's arrogant words.

I saw that after Li Yunlong signaled the big guy to stop laughing, he continued to point to the military map and said: "There are only more than 900 Japanese troops left in Changping, like this. Zhang Dabiao's battalion was responsible for attacking the northern and eastern cities, and Zhou Hua's independent battalion was responsible for attacking the southern and western cities. Sun Desheng's cavalry company was responsible for cruising around the city to hunt and kill the Japanese cavalry and infantry who broke through the siege. Be sure to intercept and kill all the remnants of the Japanese army who broke through, and not a single person must escape. Wang Chengzhu's artillery has already built an artillery position on Jundu Mountain, which is condescending and can carry out artillery bombardment of the entire city of Changping to cover your infantry attacking the city. Okay, five minutes to prepare, and then start to follow the battle plan, and when the time comes, immediately attack the city. ”。

"Yes, Captain!" Everyone replied one after another, and then they went back to their troops to prepare to go.

Five minutes passed quickly, and the time was up. Li Yunlong directly picked up the field phone that connected to Wang Chengzhu's artillery position in the military capital, and ordered Wang Chengzhu's artillery to start shelling the Japanese troops at the head of Changping City.

On the mountain of the military capital, in Wang Chengzhu's artillery position, I saw Wang Chengzhu hang up the phone, directly pick up the triangular command flag, and give orders to the artillerymen.

"The target is the head of Changping City, and each artillery is determined according to the predetermined coordinates, and there is no limit to artillery bombardment, preparation, and !!" After Wang Chengzhu gave the order, the command flag in his hand was slashed down, and he ordered all artillery officers to operate mortars and three Type 92 infantry guns captured from the Japanese army at Nankou to shell the head of Changping City.

"Bang bang bang!" The sound of mortar and infantry artillery shelling suddenly rang out, and soon, one after another, the whistling shells with a long tail flame smashed across the dark night sky towards the head of Changping City.

A few seconds later, Changping North City, South City and other city heads began to explode one after another. The flames of the explosion directly blew up the city, and it was mixed with the screams of the Japanese soldiers who were crying for their fathers and mothers. Also, there was a huge explosion, and the stumps and broken arms of the Japanese defenders at the head of the city flew everywhere.
