The Eighth Route Army was like a bamboo, directly surrounding Hejian County, and it was only then that the little devils in the county town reacted, and the real target of the Eighth Route Army was Hejian County, so they hurriedly sent a telegram asking for help, requesting urgent tactical guidance.

At this time, Liu Hong also rushed to the outside of Hejian City with the main force, and according to Liu Hong's order, the troops had rushed to the designated place, selected the advantageous terrain, built a blocking position, and prepared to block the little devils who came to reinforce them.

Liu Hong held the binoculars and observed the situation in the city, with the help of the afterglow of the setting sun, he could clearly see that the Japanese puppet army on the city wall was in a mess and was hurrying to prepare for defense.

Liu Hong smiled slightly, slowly put down the binoculars, turned to Wu Feng next to him and said, "Is the artillery team ready?" ”

Wu Feng hurriedly replied, "It's ready." ”

"Good!" Liu Hong nodded and said, "Let them fire a few shots at the city wall, and tell them to shoot me on time, don't hit the city and hurt the innocent." ”

"Yes!" Wu Feng hurriedly answered, turned around and ordered a soldier to convey the order.

After a while, the artillery position of the Wugong team resounded with the rumbling sound of cannonballs, and one after another with a piercing whistling sound, the shells crossed an arc from the air and flew quickly in the direction of the city wall.

"Boom~! Rumble~! "The cannonball fell near the city wall and exploded violently, one of the shells fell directly on the city wall, and a violent explosion sounded, and several Japanese puppet troops nearby were directly blown up.

The other Japanese puppet soldiers were so frightened that they squatted on the city wall, not daring to move, and shrunk into a ball one by one, and many puppet soldiers trembled with fear. Those little devils were relatively better, and they were so frightened that they prayed secretly in their hearts, praying that the cannonballs would not fall on their heads.

"Good! Well played! Liu Hong excitedly shouted: "Let these little devils also taste the taste of being bombed." ”

At this moment, a burst of gunfire and explosions came from the south, Liu Hong frowned slightly, turned around and glanced at the south.

Wu Feng glanced at it and said, "It is estimated that the little devil from the stronghold of Longhuadian has come to reinforce it." ”

Liu Hong nodded noncommittally, and within a few minutes, the gunfire stopped, and Liu Hong said with a smile: "These little devils can't help fighting!" It's only been a few minutes. ”

Wu Feng said with a smile: "I guess I was scared away!" ”

After a while, a soldier of the Eighth Route Army hurriedly ran over, raised his hand and saluted, and said loudly: "Report to the captain, the little devils from the Longhuadian stronghold in the south rushed to reinforce and were blocked by my second squadron, and killed thirteen devils and more than 30 puppet soldiers in the fierce battle, and the rest of the Japanese puppet army retreated in a hurry. Captain Bai asked for instructions on whether to take advantage of the victory to pursue and take the stronghold of Longhuadian in one go. ”

Liu Hong shook his head with a smile and said: "This girl's courage is getting bigger and bigger, and this brave momentum is about to catch up with the bastard boy of Leizi." ”

"Haha~! Isn't that what you teach? Wu Feng said with a smile.

Liu Hong said with a wry smile: "Go and tell Squadron Leader Bai that they can build fortifications on the spot and don't have to pursue." Their main enemy is the little devils who came from Xian County to reinforce them, so that they can prepare in advance, and when the time comes, they must stop this little devil no matter what. ”

"Yes!" The warrior hurriedly answered, turned and ran away.

After a while, gunfire rang out in other directions. Wu Feng said with a smile: "It's getting more and more lively. ”

Liu Hong said with a smile: "This is just the beginning, when the little devils from various counties come to reinforce, it will be the real fierce battle!" ”

At this time, several shells rang out again on the artillery position, and several shells fell one after another near the city wall, exploding with a bang.

Liu Hong smiled and said, "Good fight!" Tell the artillery squadron to give me a shot like this, and every once in a while, give me a few shots, and definitely not let the little devil be idle. ”

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, but Liu Hong's temporary headquarters was brightly lit, Wu Feng pointed to the map and said: "At present, we have received the news that the little devils from Xian County and Suning have been dispatched to Hejian City to support. There is no news from other counties yet, but I guess the little devils in other counties will definitely not sit idly by. ”

"Hmm!" Liu Hong nodded and said, "Even if they want to sit idly by, their superiors won't agree." But no matter how many little devils come, we don't care. We will destroy as many as we come, this is not me bragging, although there are many nearby counties, but there is no main force of devils stationed in these counties. As for those county garrisons, we really don't pay attention to them. ”

Wu Feng nodded and said, "Having said that, but there are many ants that bite and kill elephants!" If the little devils and puppet armies in the surrounding counties and nearby strongholds all flock here, the total number of troops is quite a lot! And although we are now besieging Hejian City, we need to defend it on all sides, and our forces will be scattered, so it will not be so easy to annihilate these enemies. ”

Liu Hong smiled and said: "What you said has some truth, but don't forget, these little devils in counties and strongholds are from far and near, and the time they arrived is also different, and they are also fighting on their own." We can fight this time gap with them now, break them down individually, and destroy them one by one. ”

Wu Feng nodded with a smile and said: "That's right, the closest is Xian County and Suning in the west, there is Regiment Leader Zhang in the west and they are responsible for blocking it, there should be no problem." There is only one second squadron in the south, and it should not be a problem to block the attack of the devils, but it will be difficult to eliminate them. And if this little devil gathers the Japanese puppet army in the two strongholds of Longhuadian and Shanglin, the strength will be further strengthened, and it will be even more difficult to do. ”

Liu Hong frowned and said: "The little devils in the direction of Xianxian County are the focus of our attack, and this little devil must be completely annihilated no matter what." So be it! I see that Secretary Lin and the others have mobilized enough people, there are four or five thousand people, these people are enough to scare the little devils in the city, and they can mobilize some comrades from the district squad, and the troops do not need to be too much, only 200 people are needed, and they can go to the southwest. This made it possible to replace the 3rd squadron in the southwestern direction. ”

Wu Feng frowned and said, "Is it just these people from the district team who can do it?" ”

Liu Hong frowned and said: "The little devils in Raoyang County in the southwest may not come to support, even if they really rush over, they won't be able to arrive for a while, just relying on the little devils in the nearby strongholds, there should be no problem, and it is enough for the third squadron to leave a small team to defend it." In this way, the 3rd Squadron can send 300 men to assist the 2nd Squadron, and it should be able to defeat the enemy to the south. ”
