Chapter 940: Overnight Rush to the Rescue
The city of Gaoyou, which burned half the sky, was lively again, and the sound of gunfire rang out everywhere, accompanied by the bombardment of grenades and grenadiers.
Clusters of dazzling fireballs rose up, and under the miserable white light of the flares, groups of guerrilla officers and soldiers were leaping forward under the cover of the ruins, and the devils launched a new round of attacks.
"Jingle Bell ......" The rapid telephone ringing sounded in the devil's war room.
As soon as one of the operators of the devil grabbed the phone, there was a hurried cry for help: "The Chinese army has launched a large-scale attack!" Request for support ......"
The so-called leak in the house happened to rain overnight, and at this moment the ammunition depot was blown into ruins, and the guerrillas launched another major offensive.
At Yang Ling's behest, the guerrilla officers and soldiers in charge of the attack took a stand, and all light and heavy weapons were put on the field.
During the day, in the small-scale exchange of fire with the devils, they had already figured out the defense points in various places, and the machine gun company was bombarded violently at this moment, and some infantry brothers took the opportunity to fight forward, and the devils suddenly couldn't bear their strength.
The devil commander Qingchuan Shaozuo is busy now, the fire here has not been extinguished, and the guerrillas over there are attacking again, isn't this going for his life!
"Send a telegram to the Fifth Brigade of the Public Security Army to quickly move closer to Gaoyou, and it must break into the city before dawn to relieve the siege......"
Although the Yangzhou area had previously sent Jiangfang troops to Gaoyou for reinforcements, many parts of the river along the way were controlled by guerrillas under different banners, so the advance was slow.
At present, the Jiang defense troops are far from quenching their thirst, and can only hope that the security forces outside the city, which have been beaten to ashes during the day, will come over, and once the security forces break through into the city, then they will be able to hold out for some more time.
In a hurry, the devil commander Qingchuan Shaozuo didn't know that although Yang Ling and their attack were on a posture, it was thunder and rain, and the main purpose was to transfer the puppet army.
The puppet army was slippery like a loach, and was stunned by a blow to the head during the day, and soon retracted back to be a turtle.
It is not impossible to fight a tough battle with the strength of the guerrilla corps, but the casualties must be very large, and they still have to recuperate to deal with the devils who come to help, and they can't have too many casualties against the puppet army, and it is only most appropriate to put them in the field to fight.
Although Yang Ling and the others launched a large-scale offensive against the devils in the city, their eyes were always fixed on the outside of the city, and his goal this time was to eat the puppet army outside the city in one bite.
Although several ambushes in all directions during the day eliminated many puppet troops, the number of puppet troops is still large, and they must be solved before the arrival of devil reinforcements, otherwise it will always be a hidden danger to stay.
The telegram in the Devil's City was soon sent to the temporary brigade headquarters of the security army in the Guyu Sanduan area, and the commander of the puppet army was sleeping with a woman in his arms when he was woken up by a knock on the door.
"Brigadier Commander, Brigadier Commander!"
"Fuck, who's impatient, what's the hell howling in the middle of the night!" The puppet brigade commander who was woken up was full of anger on his face, and he opened his mouth to scold.
"Brigade commander, there is a fight in the city! A telegram from the Imperial Army, telling us to hurry into the city for reinforcements-"
Hearing the report of the puppet soldiers outside the door, the puppet brigade commander scolded and dragged his clothes and draped them on himself, opened the door, and pulled the telegram over with great impatience and glanced at it a few times.
Now the devils in the city have reached the end of the crossbow, so this wording is also harsh, if the security army does not break into the city after dawn to relieve the siege, he, the brigade commander, will not do it.
"Fuck, these grandsons!" The brigade commander of the puppet army tore up the telegram and threw it on the ground, and then ordered with great reluctance: "Let the brothers hurry up and roll Lao Tzu up and go into the city to save people!"
The cold air at night was so cold that the air was shivering, and it was made out of the warm quilt in the middle of the night by the black light, whether it was a puppet army officer or a soldier, they were all scolding and full of resentment.
On weekdays, the devils dictate to them, but at this moment, they are asked to take great risks to rescue, in fact, they are reluctant in their hearts.
"Big brother, this black light is blinding, and the guerrillas are like monkeys, if they set a trap for us? Why don't you wait until dawn? Be safe. ”
Thinking of being ambushed during the day and suffering heavy losses, now these puppet army officers are all palpitating, and they are all ambushed in broad daylight, this black rumbling is even more dangerous.
"I'm afraid that when it gets dawn, we will have to collect the corpses of the imperial army!"
The puppet army brigade commander scolded angrily, but he also thought in his heart, collect the corpse, just collect the corpse, in case they are afraid that they will settle accounts after the autumn, and now the national army can't go back, and he, the brigade commander of the security army, wants to work for a few more years.
Seeing the sad face of the officers under his command, the brigade commander of the puppet army cleared his throat and said: "Don't cry and mourn, the guerrillas have all moved to fight the imperial army in the city, and there may not be an ambush outside the city.
"What if I can't get through?" There was a weak question from the commander of the puppet military battalion.
"The guerrillas are robbing in their hands, and you are not burning sticks in your hands, so you are afraid of it! Fight me to the death, the guerrillas are also people, I don't believe they have three heads and six arms! ”
Hearing what the brigade commander of the puppet army said, the officers of the puppet army also knew that it seemed that they could not escape from rescuing Gaoyou overnight this time, and it seemed inevitable to fight with the guerrillas.
"It's all for Lao Tzu, whoever enters Gaoyou first to save the imperial army, not only will the official be promoted to one level, but also Lao Tzu will award five hundred oceans!"
The brigade commander of the puppet army also let go, and in order to keep his position as the brigade commander, he did not hesitate to take out promotions and heavy money to mobilize morale.
"Brigadier Commander, don't worry! We promise to defeat the guerrillas! ”
"Before dawn, you will definitely enter Gaoyou!"
……
The officers of the puppet army all heard the reward, and their eyes were bright, and five hundred oceans were second, as long as they were promoted to one level, it was not a problem to catch 100,000 oceans, and they were all in high spirits.
"The 2nd Regiment sent a battalion to attack the city from the north to attract the fire of the guerrillas, and the rest followed me from the south."
Soon, the brigade commander of the puppet army formulated a combat plan, and being able to be a brigade commander is not a wine bag and a rice bag.
During the day, he was ambushed by the guerrillas, and that was their carelessness, and now he is advancing to Gaoyou at night, and he is ready to make a noise.
It is not impossible to use a battalion of troops to attract the attention of the guerrillas from the north, and to lead the main force to attack from the south, and when the imperial army is rescued, it is not impossible to defeat the guerrillas in one fell swoop with the troops from the north.
"The brothers who went to the north of the city remembered to me that they should light more torches, and make the movement as loud as possible, and when they encountered the guerrillas blocking them, they fought with them and beat me hard, so that they thought that they were the main force of our security army." The puppet army brigade commander admonished.
"Brigadier Commander, Gao Ming!" The officers reacted quickly and slapped their ass.
"Damn, don't talk nonsense, hurry down and prepare, and set off in ten minutes!" The brigade commander of the puppet army waved his hand and announced the adjournment of the meeting.
Soon, the shouting and scolding of the puppet army officers sounded outside, and groups of sleepy-eyed puppet soldiers braved the cold wind to assemble, and the soldiers marched towards Gaoyou in two ways.
The old man of the puppet army of the battalion of puppet troops who went to the north gate was like a long dragon with torches, mighty and magnificent.
The other two remnants of the battalion led by the brigade commander of the puppet army walked at night, picked a small road, and went straight to the south gate of Gaoyou.
