Repelled the Japanese attack again, but Lu Yuan's face did not show much joy, because on the full-view map he secretly opened, the red dots representing the Japanese army around the bank building suddenly became fewer. He made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace in Hongkou District, and the Japanese army would never let himself continue, and at this time, he suddenly withdrew his peripheral troops, could it be that the Japanese army had already guessed its true purpose? Lu Yuan's heart was full of doubts.

Lu Yuan was puzzled, why the Japanese army surrounding him would withdraw part of its troops at this time, and Xu Huanshan, who had been secretly watching outside Hongkou District, was also puzzled. Ever since he secretly speculated that the person who was making trouble in Hongkou District might be Lu Yuan, he had never left this observation base, and what he and the top echelons of the Shanghai underground party did not expect was that this guy who was doing things in Hongkou District with great fanfare would be so sharp and could hold out for such a long time.

In fact, although it has been through various channels, the news received by Xu Huanshan is not detailed, but Xu Huanshan has not gained anything here, at least the Shanghai underground party in the Japanese military hospital sent the news, the Japanese army in the past two days, the corpses and wounded sent to the military hospital, has exceeded 300 people. Xu Huanshan has been engaged in underground intelligence work for a long time and has not really been on the battlefield, so he doesn't know that there are corpses on the battlefield.

Therefore, Xu Huanshan simply speculated from these figures, and speculated that the Japanese army that encircled and suppressed Lu Yuan had lost at least four squads, but he didn't know that there were at least 60 corpses of Japanese soldiers trapped inside and outside the bank building surrounded by the Japanese army. In the front-line combat units of the Japanese army, more than 60 people are almost the strength of an infantry squad, so strictly speaking, the number of Japanese soldiers killed and wounded by Lu Yuan has exceeded four infantry squads, and most of them were committed by Lu Yuan.

The loss of four squads is nothing if it is placed in the field troops of the Japanese army, but this is Shanghai, and these dead and wounded Japanese troops are only military police units stationed in Shanghai, and the Japanese military police units in Shanghai are only a few thousand people. The bank building occupied by Lu Yuan and the others was very strong, and the Japanese army could not carry heavy weapons into the Hongkou District to participate in the battle, and the matter became bigger and bigger, and finally the Japanese military police headquarters in Shanghai, which could not cover the cover, had to report the situation to the front army headquarters, so there was a situation where part of the troops was withdrawn at present.

The withdrawal of part of the Japanese troops surrounding Lu Yuan and the two did not mean that they relaxed the encirclement or let Lu Yuan and the two continue to toss, and two hours later, a Japanese convoy drove into Hongkou District, which was a Japanese army unit to replace the military police. The gendarme Dazuo, who was in charge of the on-site command, was very annoyed, but the other party came to replace him according to the order of the front army headquarters, and even if he was angry, it would be useless, and the best choice was to actively cooperate with the other party.

The Japanese troops who were transferred to Hongkou District by the Front Army Headquarters were a field brigade that had returned from the southern battlefield to recuperate, and the Nagano Brigade was supposed to have a short-term rest in Suzhou while waiting for reinforcements from the mainland, but it did not want to suddenly receive an order from the Front Army Headquarters and was transferred to Shanghai to take over the military police to carry out an encirclement and suppression operation. After receiving this order, Kazuo Nagano, who was the captain of the brigade, did not attach much importance to it, and asked a field force to carry out the battle of urban encirclement and suppression, which was a bit unreasonable, so Kazuo Nagano only sent the strength of one squadron.

The Nagano Brigade only came with the strength of one squadron, and it was difficult for this force to form a tight encirclement of the bank building, and the gendarmerie force Zi Sandalwood, who was bent on throwing away the hot potato, would not say anything, and said that his side would be responsible for the perimeter guard, so he happily handed over the task to the on-site commander of the Nagano Brigade. The Nagano Brigade is a field army, and they are used to positional warfare, and they have never experienced urban battles like the one in front of them, but the outstanding combat exploits of the Nagano Brigade before made the soldiers of the Nagano Brigade look arrogant.

After a short rest, the Sagawa squadron, which had been sent by Kazuo Nagano to Hongkou District, immediately took up the fight, preparing to take down the bank building, which was regarded as hell by the military police troops. "Cowards, when we take that building, we'll hand over the battlefield to you to clean up." Accompanied by the gestures of the officers, the Japanese soldiers of the Zuochuan squadron began to advance along the street with a grin, and according to custom, the machine gunners of the Zuochuan squadron also walked forward quickly, ready to find a suitable position to set up machine guns to provide fire cover for their comrades.

Squadron Leader Mitsuichi Zuo Chuan was looking straight ahead with a telescope at the moment, in his opinion, such a battle could not be brought to the table at all, such a building, his soldiers only needed one attack, and they could definitely take it down. Koichi Sagawa, who is a bit self-righteous in character, did not choose the same offensive routine as the previous gendarmerie troops, he did not intend to let his soldiers waste time climbing the window on the second floor of the bank building, in his opinion, as long as he could successfully occupy the shop opposite the bank building, his machine gun fire could successfully suppress the enemy in the building, and then rush in to destroy the enemy.

Zuo Chuanguang thought about things simply, and his tactical arrangement was still the same as that for dealing with field battles, but he didn't know what the enemy he was going to face was like. There was an abnormality on the Japanese side, and Lu Yuan, who had been paying attention to them, immediately saw the difference from the all-angle map. As long as you are not a fool, it is not difficult to guess that the group of Japanese troops who came here is not simple, and they should have come to replace the Japanese soldiers who left before.

The Japanese army attacked again, looking at Jin Douhuan who was eager to try beside him, Lu Yuan reminded the other party in a low voice, "Be careful, this group of Japanese soldiers is not simple, it should not be those Japanese military police before." Indeed, although the soldiers of the Zuochuan squadron looked a little careless, but after only ten meters away from the starting place, these Japanese soldiers immediately showed their sophistication, whether it was between the march or the mutual cooperation, they were different from the previous Japanese military police.

Lu Yuan reminded Jin Douhuan, so he carried an assault rifle to the third floor, and on the first floor there were * and * arranged by him, even if these Japanese soldiers were not ordinary, Lu Yuan didn't think they could attack in one time. By the street window on the 3rd floor, Lu Yuan, who was standing sideways, held up the assault rifle in his hand, this position was condescending, Lu Yuan could give full play to the advantages of the assault rifle's continuous fire, and shoot as many of them as possible before the Japanese army attacked the first floor, so as to reduce the burden and pressure on Kim Doo-hwan.

The soldiers of Zuochuan's squadron advanced rapidly, and the closer they got to the bank building, the distance between the soldiers widened, and in Lu Yuan's eyes, a Japanese light machine gun team was passing through the street, apparently preparing to enter the shop opposite the bank building. Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan couldn't help grinning, even if they let them occupy the shop opposite, as long as they blew up the stairs connecting the second and third floors, and then withdrew to the third floor as a whole, even if the Japanese army piled up light machine guns in front of the bank, it would be difficult for them to pose an effective threat to themselves.

But even so, Lu Yuan would not easily let the Japanese army control the shop across the street, and it was best to make this Japanese army feel that he was desperately trying to stop the other party's intention, so as to lure more Japanese soldiers to automatically appear under his guns like moths to fire. Lu Yuan, who was at the window on the third floor, fired a series of two consecutive shots, and the bullets fired from top to bottom immediately hit a large cloud of blood mist in the street, and the two Japanese soldiers fell in the middle of the street screaming.

The only one who escaped from Lu Yuan's gun was the Japanese shooter with a light machine gun in his arms, two people in a three-person machine gun team were shot, and the only machine gunner who survived was a light machine gun without bullets, and the Japanese machine gunner who had rushed into the shop across the street was anxious. With a burst of angry shouts, the Japanese soldiers who were hiding on the side of the street leaned out and opened fire, and two other Japanese soldiers took the opportunity to run out and try to cross the street into the opposite shop.

Lu Yuan didn't know that these two bold Japanese soldiers were specially going to deliver bullets to the Japanese machine gunner, he just saw a Japanese soldier appear in the street, so he subconsciously opened fire. Two more shots were fired in two consecutive rows, and the two Japanese soldiers who tried to cross the street also fell helplessly into the street. Lu Yuan fired twice in a row, and was finally confirmed by the soldiers of Zuochuan's squadron, a fierce Japanese commander Cao Chang, who was not afraid of death, actually followed the example of the Eighth Route Army, held the light machine gun in his arms, and fired at Lu Yuan's side.

The opponent's firepower was very fierce, Lu Yuan had to retreat temporarily, it didn't matter if he retreated, the other Japanese soldiers also followed suit, and the windows on the third floor were instantly suppressed, and Lu Yuan couldn't find the opportunity and possibility to fight back. More than 20 Japanese soldiers rushed into the shop across the street, and immediately the Japanese light machine guns rang out again, and this time the Japanese army's dense barrage was very accurate, and many bullets entered the room through the windows.

Lu Yuan was helpless, so he had to spread his hands and feet against the floor and slowly climb out of the room, and before Lu Yuan could move to the rooftop ladder, he suddenly heard Jin Doohuan's shouts and dense gunfire coming from downstairs. The sound of gunshots that erupted downstairs was like fried beans, and Lu Yuan couldn't hear what Jin Doo-hwan was shouting just now, and after a few breaths, Lu Yuan heard a loud bang, and there was a shaking under his feet, and immediately thick smoke poured up the stairs.

Broken! Lu Yuan secretly screamed badly, and then quickly returned to the 2nd floor along the stairs, and happened to see a gray-faced Jin Douhuan, who really pressed the detonator and blew up the stairs connecting the 2nd floor. Seeing Lu Yuan coming down from upstairs, Jin Douhuan immediately showed a smile that was even uglier than crying, "There are too many of them, I really can't stop them, so I have to detonate them*." ”
