Liu Hong held the telescope to observe the situation in Xuanhua City, slowly put down the telescope, and ordered with a serious face: "Immediately send the order, concentrate forces to launch a full-scale attack on Xuanhua, and be sure to seize Xuanhua in the shortest possible time." ”

"Yes!"

A soldier of the Eighth Route Army next to him hurriedly answered, turned around and ran to convey the order.

Liu Hong's order quickly reached the forward position, and at this time, the artillery position of the independent regiment immediately sounded with rumbling artillery.

"Chirp~!"

With a piercing whistling sound, the cannonball quickly pierced the sky and flew in the direction of Xuanhua City.

"Boom~! Rumble~! ”

Violent explosions sounded one after another, and I saw that a piece of fire suddenly rose on the Xuanhua city wall, and in a blink of an eye, the little devil's city fortifications fell into a burst of artillery fire.

Liu Hong frowned, observed the situation on the battlefield, and said, "Continue to strengthen the firepower, open a gap for me as soon as possible, and capture Xuanhua City." ”

"The stakes are very high in this battle, and if we can't capture Xuanhua in a short time, it will be very unfavorable to us."

"Yes!"

Wu Feng hurriedly answered, turned around and ordered someone to convey the order.

"Boom~!"

In the violent explosion, the dilapidated city wall finally could not withstand the heavy bombardment, and collapsed with a bang, revealing a huge gap in the city wall.

After this fierce bombardment, the Xuanhua city wall has been blown down in several places.

The devil's fortifications were also destroyed, and the little devils on the city wall suffered heavy casualties.

It was only at this time that Liu Hong nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's almost over, immediately send an order and order the troops to launch a full-line attack, and strive to break through the devil's city fortifications in one fell swoop." ”

"Yes!"

Wu Feng hurriedly answered, turned around and ordered someone to convey the order.

Liu Hong's order was quickly conveyed.

"Tick tock~!"

The loud horn of the charge suddenly sounded.

"Kill~!"

Immediately after, the earth-shattering shouts of killing rang out.

Under the cover of tanks, the heroic soldiers of the Eighth Route Army roared loudly and swept towards Xuanhua City like a mountain flood and tsunami.

The little devils on the city wall suddenly became a mess and rushed out in an attempt to resist the attack of the Eighth Route Army.

A fierce battle began.

The independent regiment attacked fiercely and continued to advance, and the little devils in the city suffered heavy losses, and gradually began to be unable to resist.

Cao Yong, the commander of the second battalion, took advantage of this opportunity to lead the soldiers all the way forward, and soon rushed to the base of the city wall.

Cao Yong shouted excitedly: "Brothers~! Rushed in with Lao Tzu through the gap in the city wall. ”

"Kill!"

The warriors suddenly erupted in a shout of killing, and then followed Cao Yong to climb through the ruins and rush in through the gap in the city wall.

"Da Da Da Da~!"

At this moment, a dense burst of gunfire rang out from the inside of the city wall, and a string of red-hot bullets swept quickly.

More than a dozen fighters who had just rushed in were caught off guard and were instantly swept to the ground by machine-gun bullets and died on the spot.

Cao Yong and the soldiers behind hurriedly retreated and hid in a safe place.

"Ma's~! The devil's firepower is too fierce. ”

Cao Yong shouted loudly: "Concentrate artillery fire on Lao Tzu, and bombard the inside of the city wall, no matter what, you must cover us to rush into the city." ”

"Yes!"

The order was quickly conveyed when the rumbling of cannon could be heard in the distance.

Dozens of tanks and dozens of mortars, all aimed at the inside of the city walls, began to bombard fiercely.

"Boom~! Rumble~! ”

The violent explosions suddenly became one, and in the blink of an eye, a large area on the inner side of the city wall was all under the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army.

Cao Yong saw the opportunity and shouted loudly: "Brothers~! Keep rushing with Lao Tzu! ”

"Kill~!"

The heroic soldiers once again burst out with an earth-shattering shouting of killing, and rushed in with Cao Yong without hesitation.

At this time, the sound of artillery finally stopped.

Cao Yong led the soldiers, roared loudly, broke through the pervasive gunsmoke, climbed over the gap in the city wall, and directly entered the city.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the surrounding little devils hurriedly mobilized troops and launched a counterattack against Cao Yong and them, trying to drive them out of the city.

A fierce battle ensued.

Cao Yong led the soldiers to resist the crazy counterattack of the devils, and the battle was very tragic.

Liu Hong was in the forward observation post, and when he saw that the second battalion had successfully broken into the city, he was excited, and hurriedly ordered loudly: "Immediately send an order, notify the follow-up troops, immediately concentrate my forces, support the second battalion, rush into the city, and eliminate all the little devils in the city." ”

"Yes!"

A soldier next to him hurriedly answered, turned around and ran to deliver the order.

Under the personal command of Liu Hong, the main force entered the city one after another, assisted the second battalion to launch a fierce counterattack against the little devils, and soon completely defeated the little devils.

At this point, the little devils were completely defeated, and they could no longer stop the attack of the independent regiment.

The large army entered the city one after another, and launched a more ferocious offensive against the devil remnants in the city.

After a fierce battle, the remnants of the enemy in the city were finally wiped out and Xuanhua City was successfully recovered.

By the time the battle was over, it was already dark.

Liu Hong hurriedly found Commander Li and said to Commander Li: "Commander Li, this Xuanhua City will be handed over to you for the time being?" ”

Commander Li asked puzzledly, "What about your independent regiment?" ”

Liu Hong smiled and said: "We still have a new mission, I have ordered the troops to assemble and set off immediately." ”

Commander Li said with admiration: "Your independent regiment is really an iron-clad army!" Don't worry, although we are not as good as you in the war, there is no problem in holding a Xuanhua City, and you can rest assured that Xuanhua City will be handed over to us. ”

Liu Hong nodded with satisfaction and said, "With Commander Li's words, I am naturally a hundred relieved." ”

That night, Liu Hong led his troops to secretly leave Xuanhua City.

……

However, it was said that the Sakamoto Division, after receiving the order from Gangcun Ningji, immediately gathered troops and quickly returned to help Xuanhua.

However, it also takes time for the troops of a division to assemble, because they were often attacked by independent detachments before, so the troops were very cautious, and they were all arranged at important intersections everywhere, and the troops were relatively scattered.

It also takes time to assemble, so there is a delay in time, and Lieutenant General Sakamoto and his troops hurriedly look at Xuanhua.

On the way, I received the news that Xuanhua was lost.

But the Sakamoto division continued to run for Xuanhua.

Because the order given to them by Gangcun Ningci was to try to recapture Xuanhua if it was lost.

Lieutenant General Sakamoto had to carry out the order and continue to rush towards Xuanhua overnight.

Due to the rough road, it was only by the morning of the next day that the Sakamoto division arrived more than twenty miles away from Xuanhua.

The mountains here are steep, the roads are narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is a dangerous place for soldiers.

However, Lieutenant General Sakamoto was in a hurry to rush to Xuanhua and took advantage of the Eighth Route Army's unstable foothold to recapture Xuanhua, so he ignored this.

led the troops to continue to advance, and unknowingly, the little devil unknowingly walked into the trap that Liu Hong had carefully prepared for them.

It turned out that Liu Hong left Xuanhua with the independent regiment last night, and had already laid an ambush again, just waiting for the Sakamoto division to drill in.

Seeing that the little devil's troops had completely entered the ambush circle, Liu Hong immediately issued an order for a general attack.

For a while, the cannon roared.

The independent regiment concentrated all its artillery and fired at the little devils who were trapped in the encirclement.

"Boom~! Rumble~! ”

The violent explosions suddenly became one, and the cannonballs continued to fall in the ranks of the devils like hail, exploding with a bang.

In the violent explosion, pieces of fire continued to rise in the crowd of devils, and in a blink of an eye, the little devils were turned on their backs by the bombers, and they suffered heavy casualties.

It was only at this time that the little devil suddenly came to his senses and fell into an ambush by the Eighth Road.

Lieutenant General Sakamoto hurriedly ordered the troops to retreat, at this time the little devil was already in a mess, and Lieutenant General Sakamoto's retreat order, the little devil was completely messed up, and one by one they scrambled to flee backwards.

At this moment, several shells fell in quick succession near the armored command vehicle in which Lieutenant General Sakamoto was riding.

A violent explosion sounded, and the command vehicle was directly enveloped in artillery fire, after the smoke cleared.

The armored command vehicle had been blown to the ground, blazing with flames.

Lieutenant General Sakamoto was also killed on the spot by the bombing.

As soon as Lieutenant General Sakamoto died, the little devil lost his unified command.

One by one, like a group of refugees fleeing, they turned around and fled, fleeing in the direction of Zhangjiakou.

However, Liu Hong had already made arrangements and had already sent elite troops to cut off the devil's retreat.

Occupies favorable terrain.

The little devils can't rush out at all.

There is no way to heaven and no door to the earth.

And it was blocked in a narrow valley again.

can only be reduced to a live target of the Eighth Route Army.

The fierce fighting lasted most of the day.

There were about 10,000 people in the Devil Sakamoto Division, and most of them were annihilated on the spot, except for a few who took advantage of the chaos to escape.

The Separate Regiment won a great victory.

Subsequently, Liu Hong led the independent regiment to cooperate with the troops of the Eastern Hebei Military Region and approached in the direction of Zhangjiakou together.

After Gangcun Ningji received the news, he suddenly felt that the general trend had gone.

The main forces could only be withdrawn from the Gaoyang front.

As soon as the little devils withdrew, the Eighth Route Army concentrated hundreds of thousands of main forces and launched a fierce attack on the little devils.

The originally orderly retreat directly turned into a major rout.

The little devil was defeated and suffered heavy losses.

Of the tens of thousands of little devils, only a few thousand escaped back to Zhangjiakou in the end.

And then Zhangjiakou was also surrounded by hundreds of thousands of large legions of the Eighth Road.

The defeat was like a mountain, Gangcun Ningci felt powerless to return to the sky, fled Zhangjiakou by plane, and fled back to Beiping in a gloomy manner.

The Eighth Route Army immediately launched a fierce attack and wiped out all the little devils in Zhangjiakou.

So far, the Eighth Route Army has successfully won a complete victory in the Battle of Chahar.

After the war, Liu Hong led the independent regiment, under the leadership of the Eighth Route Army, to fight in the south and in the north, and finally won a complete victory in the War of Resistance against Japan.
