At the headquarters of the Japanese division in Datong City, as night fell, the atmosphere at the headquarters slowly became serious.

Because in three more hours, their counteroffensive will begin.

The chief of staff stood next to the sand table and combed through the counteroffensive plan he had drawn up over and over again, checking and filling in the gaps.

The division commander stood aside and listened, sometimes with a smile on his serious face, sometimes with a frown......

"Jingle Bell ......"

A hurried phone rings suddenly, pulling the two men back from their contemplation.

The communications staff officer grabbed the microphone and listened to it for less than half a minute, then frowned, and then covered the microphone and reported: "Sir, the city defense force reports that there are signs of retreat of the Jin Sui army outside the city. ”

"Did they already know that the imperial army was going to counterattack tonight and decided to retreat ahead of schedule?" The chief of staff analyzed.

The division commander frowned and replied: "Very likely! ”

"If the Jin Sui army retreats in advance, our counteroffensive must also be advanced, take advantage of the retreat of the Jin Sui army to kill Datong City, catch them off guard, chase them and fight, and beat the retreat into a rout."

The division commander's face became more and more serious, and he resolutely took over the command of the unit and made a decision on the spot.

"Order all sortie units to be combat-ready."

"Give an order to all the city defense troops, and immediately find out whether the Jin Sui army outside the city is retreating, and the speed must be fast."

Five minutes later, the telephone of the headquarters rang one after another, and then the report of the communications staff officer reached the ears of the division commander.

"Report to the chief: The garrison of the East Gate reports that the Jin Sui army has signs of retreat!"

"Report to the chief, the garrison at the south gate reports that the Jin Sui army is retreating in an orderly manner, and they ask the troops to kill them."

"Report to the sir, our reconnaissance force lurking outside the city reports: The heavy troops of the Jin Sui army have begun to retreat!"

"No more reporting!" The division commander abruptly interrupted, and then replied in the affirmative.

"The Jin Sui army must know the news that we are going to counterattack, and order the artillery to immediately cover the intended target."

"As soon as the cannon sounds, the attacking troops will be killed immediately, and the troops behind the palace of the Jin Sui army will be defeated with the fiercest offensive, and then they will be chased and killed by their retreating troops, I will beat the water dogs, intercept at least half of the siege troops, and make the Jin Sui army pay the price."

The sound of "boom, boom, boom, ......boom" cannon soon sounded in Datong City.

Heavy artillery, mountain artillery, large-caliber mortars, ordinary mortars, all of which add up to nearly 100 guns, roared at the same time.

Dense shells rained down on the offensive positions of the Jin Sui army.

The flames were scattered and the smoke was filled.

Dirt, logs, and the soldiers of the Jin Sui Army behind the palace were blown up into the sky like toys and flew everywhere.

In the blink of an eye, the outside of Datong City was shrouded in artillery fire.

The city gate, which had been closed for several days, slowly opened a crack, and then opened wider and wider, and the Japanese puppet army with rifles in hand was like a flood that burst the embankment, rushing out of the city gate, and then quickly divided, forming an assault formation at the foot of the city wall.

"Da Da Da ......"

Heavy machine guns mounted on the top of the city joined the battle, strafing from a high position, and bullets flew towards the attacking positions like money.

"Kill to ......"

The devil officer who rushed out of the city drew his command knife, and the blade that emitted cold light moved forward, slashed hard, and commanded loudly.

The dense Japanese puppet army was like a wild horse, screaming and killing the offensive position.

The shells that had been smashing on the offensive positions began to extend little by little towards the retreating troops, covering the infantry assault.

The bullets fired from the heavy machine guns were close to the heads of the attacking troops, flying towards the offensive positions of the Jin Sui army, covering the infantry assault......

In front of the enemy headquarters of the garrison regiment, Hong Lin rushed into the headquarters like a wind, shouting as he rushed.

"It's a fight!"

"Regiment commander, the commando team reports that the little devil has killed Datong City and started a counterattack."

"Judging from the sound of artillery on the battlefield, the Japanese gathered nearly a hundred artillery pieces to counterattack, and the offensive was unprecedentedly fierce."

Li Hao rubbed up from his chair and ordered with a serious face: "Let's start acting too." ”

"Chief of Staff, immediately send an offensive signal and start closing the net."

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The moment the three flares exploded in the air, the heavy artillery battalion opened fire.

The rumbling sound of artillery soon sounded on the Japanese Caoziling defensive line.

The reaction speed of the Japanese artillery was very fast, and the artillery position, which had just been quiet, immediately became lively.

There are artillery to counterattack, and the garrison regiment's heavy artillery battalion fires at each other, and there are artillery artillery to fire at the garrison's offensive positions to cover infantry operations......

More than a hundred guards also became nervous, staring around with wide eyes, not letting go of the slightest clue.

"Who's there...... Horn ......"

A devil guard shouted, pulled the trigger with his hand, and fired a bullet at the suspicious target he found.

There was no movement at the suspicious target, but a figure appeared more than 10 meters next to it, holding a light machine gun in his arms and using it as a submachine gun, and it was a strafing shot at them.

"Da Da Da ......"

In the familiar sound of gunfire, seven or eight bullets flew over them in a fan.

The shooting distance of less than fifty meters gave the devil no chance to react.

The shots rang out, and the two sentries fell to the ground.

Then a dozen figures appeared in the night, rushing towards the artillery positions to launch an assault.

The same gunfire rang out all together around the artillery positions, chaotic and dense.

"Woooooooooo......oo Boom Boom Boom ......"

At the same time, several mortar shells burst out of the barrels and smashed into the heavy machine-gun positions of the guards with a screeching sound.

The flying flames and the smoke enveloped the two heavy machine guns in an instant.

And then the second round of shells......

In less than half a minute, the two heavy machine-gun positions were completely silent.

The assault troops also rushed to a position very close to the artillery position, and fired at the remaining Japanese puppet troops with guns.

"Heavy machine gun fire, suppress the light machine gun fire of the little devils!" The commander of the spy company shouted.

"Grenadier shot, take out the light machine gun on the left......"

"Boom ......"

After several explosions sounded in succession, the company commander jumped up from the ground like a leopard, and rushed forward with a box cannon, shouting as he charged.

"Comrades, kill me with me...... Kill the little devil artillery position......"

A reinforced squad of Japanese troops, it looks like a lot, but the artillery positions are too big, there are heavy artillery, there are mountain artillery. After all of them were dispersed, there were not even twenty devils in each direction.

The fire raid killed a lot of people, and the mortars and grenadiers killed a few more people, and the remaining dozen or so devils couldn't stop the Eighth Route Army rushing over like wolves.

As soon as the two troops clashed, more than a dozen devils were drowned in the torrent formed by the attacking troops of the garrison regiment.

The devil died, and the remaining puppet soldiers didn't even have the heart to resist, so they dropped their rifles, knelt on the ground with their heads in their hands, and waited for the Eighth Route Army to come over and surrender...... 2k reading web
