Chapter 966: The First Shot of the Siege (2)

Fang Chao gave an order, the soldiers of the second platoon of the second cavalry company jumped on the war horse, roared and rushed out of the gate of the carriage shop, the soldiers of the guard platoon hidden on both sides of the gate, when they heard Feng Guang who flashed in the courtyard, they did not dare to act without Feng Guang's order, the deputy platoon commander Li Daocheng was afraid that Feng Guang was in danger inside, and led the soldiers to rush in, and the second platoon of the cavalry that was killed almost crashed and fell under the horse.

Li Daocheng quickly flashed to the side, and watched the soldiers of the Second Cavalry Company rush out waving the saber in their hands, and soon drowned in the night with flying sand and dust.

At this time, Feng Guang ran out of the courtyard and shouted: "Hurry up to the stable, bring the war horse out, and return to No. 17 Guanping Street as fast as possible." ”

In just a few minutes, more than a dozen soldiers rode on war horses, holding the horses of a group of soldiers who had all died heroically in the Rongchang Dyeing Factory, and the horses stepped on the earth like a whirlwind in the night, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Fang Chao led the second platoon of cavalry to rampage through the streets and alleys of Fuping City, and the devil patrol troops were raging under the yellow wind in the second half of the night, some patrols hid in the corridors of residents, and some broke into the houses to carry out brutal massacres, occupying houses and hiding on the kang to avoid the wind.

This group of bastards was in a daze, and heard the chaotic movement of crazy war horses neighing and horse hooves breaking from the street, the little devils of the patrol team hurriedly rushed out, some found dozens of war horses galloping in front of them, and some of the patrol team happened to meet the galloping war horses, and before they could figure out what was going on, the commander of the war horses in front shouted: "Shoot and kill this group of bastards." ”

'Bang' a gunshot, a little devil fell to the ground in response, Fang Chao fired the first shot to attack Fuping County, and the soldiers of the second platoon of the second cavalry company immediately pulled the trigger and shot the unprepared little devil of the patrol.

In the haze of drowsiness in the second half of the night, the devil patrol in the city heard fierce gunfire in the direction of the carriage shop in the east of the city, and immediately rushed quickly.

Fang Chao didn't wait to eliminate the devil patrol that suddenly appeared in front of him, he slammed his horse and rushed out, and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Don't be in love, follow me quickly, our purpose is not to eliminate which devil patrol, but to run all the Japanese patrols in the city with the gunshots we remembered in different places, did you hear that?" ”

The cavalry soldiers of the second platoon shot and killed a little devil, and then followed Fang Chao closely, frantically broke into another street, and just encountered two reinforced devil patrols, Fang Chao ordered: "The fourth squad eliminated the devils who ran from the west, the sixth squad killed the enemy who pounced on the east, and the fifth squad continued to kill other streets and lanes with me." ”

A platoon of cavalry divided into three squads of war cavalry rampant throughout the city of Fuping, as long as the cavalry cavalry rushed to meet the enemy, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army will launch a sudden hunt, killing the devils fleeing in all directions, want to resist but before the bolt is pulled and the trigger is pulled, they are slashed by the cavalry soldiers who rushed over frantically, and the devils who are fortunate to survive escape faster than rabbits by taking advantage of the cover of the night.

As long as dozens of horsemen encounter the enemy in the city, they will sprint and collide with the fastest, wielding sabers to slash and kill the devils who can't figure out the situation, and when the devils who are still alive wake up, the cavalry soldiers have already rushed to another street or lane.

The captain of the Japanese squad in charge of night patrol, sitting in the house and sleeping in a daze, suddenly heard gunshots from many places in the city, although it was not very intense, but the direction of the gunshots was disorderly, as if the entire Fuping City was fighting fiercely.

He grabbed the phone to call the east, west, south, and north gates to guard the city, and shouted nervously: "Did you find the Tubalu siege there?" No? So why are gunshots everywhere in the city? Could it be that the earth eight roads flew from the sky and drilled into the city from the ground? ”

The leader of the devil squad immediately called the supreme commander of the Japanese army stationed in Fuping City: "Oh, ......." ”

"Bastard, are you going to die? Tell me quickly, why did there suddenly be gunfire in Fuping City, and what happened? ”

The leader of the devil squad was scolded as a 'bastard' by Captain Ikeda, he didn't dare to refute, and reported in a trembling voice: "Your Excellency the captain, a large number of Tsuchihachi roads have been found in the city, and I heard that the cavalry brigade of Tsuchihachi Road has launched a surprise attack in the city, and my patrol team ....... ”

Captain Ikeda roared angrily when he heard the captain of the night patrol say, "Yaga, how could the cavalry brigade of the Dirt Eighth Road suddenly appear in the county seat, could it be that the city gate was broken through?" ”

"No, no, no, Your Excellency Squadron Leader, I have just called the four gates of the city, and the commander Cao who guards the city gate replied that there is no Tubalu to attack the county seat from outside the city, and I request Captain Ikeda to immediately send reinforcements from the Sichengmen to encircle and suppress the Tubalu cavalry who are frantically slashing and killing the soldiers of our Imperial Japanese Army patrol in the city."

Captain Ikeda feared that the cavalry brigade of the Eighth Route Army would hunt and kill in the city, and that it would appear in different locations, but if there was no large force to divide and encircle and suppress, and the patrol squads scattered in the streets of the city would not only not be able to destroy the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army in the city, but would also be defeated by the Eighth Route Army with rapid mobile tactics.

He grabbed the phone and ordered the devils guarding the gates of the four cities, and immediately concentrated his forces from the outside and inside to encircle and suppress the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army.

Cao Chang, who guarded the city gate, led the few devils to quickly withdraw from the city gate position, and rushed to the place where the gunshots rang out in the city as quickly as possible.

Squadron Commander Ikeda ordered all the troops in the city to surround the streets and lanes where gunfire rang out from different directions, and to destroy the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, which suddenly appeared in the city and frantically slashed and killed the Japanese patrol.

The little devils in the city were all dispatched, blocking every street and alley in the city, hiding in the corner of the wall to hunt the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, as long as the cavalry appeared, they would immediately launch a fire strangulation.

Fang Chao found that the streets and alleys had been blocked by devils, and he let out a sharp whistle at night, which ordered the soldiers of the second company and the second platoon of cavalry to immediately rush out of the enemy blockade and quickly move closer to the carriage shop in the east of the city.

Squadron Leader Ikeda, who commanded the encirclement and suppression of the Eighth Route Army cavalry team in the city, found the cavalry rampaging through the streets and alleys and retreated to the east of the city, and ordered all troops to press up and destroy the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army that broke into the city.

Just when Squadron Leader Ikeda used all the forces in the city to deal with the second platoon of the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, he suddenly heard a deafening sound of gunfire and shouts of killing at the east gate of the city, and the large army of the Eighth Route Army heard Ma Chao fire the first shot of attacking Fuping City in the city, and Li Gang led the only regiment to launch the most powerful offensive against Fuping City.

Fang Liqiang's assault company, which had moved to the east city gate in advance, fired fierce gunfire in the siege battle inside and outside the city, and Wang Xiaoliang ordered the soldiers of the assault company hidden at the east city gate to strike at the enemy puppet army positions defending the city with the most ferocious firepower.

When he heard a sudden burst of fierce gunfire inside and outside the East Gate, Ikeda decisively ordered the Devil Team to abandon the encirclement and suppression of the Eighth Route Army cavalry in the city and quickly reinforce the East City Gate.

The little devil was about to approach the East City Gate and suddenly encountered Fang Liqiang's assault company, Captain Ikeda ordered the team leader beside him: "Destroy the Tsuchibachi Road that infiltrated the city in advance with maximum firepower, and order the Kondo team to immediately reinforce the East City Gate." ”

Kondo's squad received the order and immediately reinforced the east city gate, one of the squad firepower encircled and suppressed Fang Liqiang's assault company, and the other part quickly seized the position of the castle tower, and condescendingly attacked the only regiment attacking inside and outside the city.

Under the command of Li Gang, except for the 2nd and 4th Battalions that set up ambushes in the vicinity of Bantoudian and Chujiacun to block enemy reinforcements, the 1st Battalion, 3rd Battalion and Cavalry Battalion were all engaged in the battle of Fuping City.

Li Gang ordered the first battalion to be the main attacking force, the third battalion to respond, and the cavalry battalion to carry out a feint attack at the western, southern, and northern city gates to contain the enemy's forces and cover the main force to capture the east city gate in one go.

According to the commander of the devil guarding the four city gates, hearing the gunfire in the city, Captain Ikeda ordered the enemy puppet army guarding the city gates, closing the city gates to strengthen vigilance, and setting up light and heavy machine guns in the position of the city towers.

The little devils guarding the city gate did not dare to take it lightly, concentrated all their forces and firepower, and waited for the position of the city tower, although they cheered up one by one, but they looked at the black rumbling outside the city, as if the muzzle of the Eighth Route Army had been aimed at the city tower, and it was possible to attack at any time.
