Correspondents kept running back to the city wall to report on the situation in the city.
The work team cannot get close to the county government office and cannot wait for the signal flare any longer!
Wang Liujin shouted: "Get ready for mortars."
Wan Xiang and Li Xiang answered almost simultaneously: "Preparations are complete."
"preparation."
"put"
The cannonball slipped out of hand and slid into the barrel.
Tom. Tom.
Two projectiles were ejected from their chambers and hit the county government compound directly.
Then, the belts of the two grenade launchers pulled, and there were two more thumps.
Li Huanzhang, who followed the bandits to the second floor of the front yard, heard a whistling sound and his scalp went numb.
He immediately grabbed the bandit in front of him and went into the room next to him.
The bandit leader led a group of rats who were sneaking out along the alley to fish in troubled waters. When they heard the scream, they immediately shouted: "Mom, hide now."
The group of people didn't care about exposing their sneaky behavior and jumped directly into the courtyard next to it.
Boom boom
Two huge explosions exploded in the county government compound.
There was a dazzling flash of light, the ground shook continuously, the brick house of the county government office rattled, and the choking smoke began to fill the air.
The papered window rattled, and the shock wave directly shattered the glass on the window. There was another crisp rattling sound.
Then there were two more muffled sounds, and the sound seemed to be much quieter.
The bandits who poured into the county government compound were almost all members of Wang Taigong's direct lineage.
One of the grenade grenades landed on the roof, sending bricks flying and accumulated dust flying.
Several bandits lying on the roof were blown over, and their screams were piercing their hearts.
The overly frightened bandit soldiers jumped up like headless flies. They just wanted to leave the uncovered roof. Suddenly, their feet were empty and they fell off the roof with a strange scream.
Screams could be heard one after another in the county government compound.
There is no accurate target for night mortar attacks. It is impossible to miss the target if the shells are fired into the county government office.
The whistling sound sounded again.
After the second round of shells fired from the mortar grenade reached its highest point, it hit the county government office hard again.
The ground in the courtyard was shaking, and a group of rats were frightened to death. Seeing that the explosion was far away, I felt relieved.
The poor monk and immortal fellow Taoist said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord."
Luo Fugui grabbed the bandits beside him: "Whose master's yard is this?"
Before the bandits could recover from their dazed state, someone said in the darkness: "Hey, who are you? You dare to sneak into the second commander's pawn shop without opening your eyes."
"Grandma's eight-way bombardment, come in and take shelter."
"I asked you to gather at the county government office. Don't you have ears?"
The little boss followed up and shouted: "The county government office is crowded with people. I don't know how many brothers will die if one shot is fired. Besides, we can't squeeze in now."
"Hey, are you the Sky Monkey?"
Did the other party hear my voice? The little boss was shocked, and the lie came out without even a draft: "Hey, we are here to guard on the orders of the second boss."
"Then you just stay in the yard."
"Okay." The little boss responded quickly, and then whispered in Luo Fugui's ear: "They are hiding it and we are hiding it. If you try hard, you will suffer big losses."
"Don't worry, listen to my instructions." Luo Fu looked at the situation in the yard: "Send two out and go around from the next yard to the roof."
"But, next door is the brothel owned by the Third Master."
"Isn't the brothel a place for us to spend money this late at night? Just tell them that the second boss needs to strengthen the security of the pawn shop."
The smoke shop that was set on fire in the distance has burned into a huge fire.
The unscrupulous merchants who were putting out the fire were shouting anxiously. Unfortunately, when the gunfire went off, there were not many people who came to help. Only the neighboring merchants who were about to be attacked were surrounded and worried.
The city is short of water and cannot put out the fire!
We can only wait for the fire to reach the brick firewall and extinguish it on its own.
Click, click, click. Machine guns from three directions at the north and southeast gates began to roar, and bullets whizzed aimlessly over the county town.
Captain Geng was hiding in the darkness, and the county government office exploded with flashes of light, occasionally illuminating his face, which was so dark that it was almost impossible to see.
His location is not far from the south gate of the county government, about fifty meters.
At a very close distance, the machine guns on the tower were suppressed, and the bandits who were originally running on the street got into the shops on both sides.
There are enemies everywhere!
The various courtyards near the county government office were full of bandit soldiers, and there was no chance of getting through in the dark on the street.
The ragtag bandit soldiers have been trained by the Japanese advisers, and the small leaders also know that the team cannot be chaotic at this time.
Personally guard the streets and alleys near the county government office to prevent unknown people from approaching the county government office.
There are only a few members of the team, so it is absolutely impossible to rush in forcefully. If you go there at this time, you will definitely only get shot.
He remembered clearly that further ahead were various shops opened by bandit leaders.
In the shop, in addition to the shopkeeper and the waiter who took refuge with the bandit leader, there were also bandit soldiers.
There is no way to walk on the roof!
Fortunately, he did not fire the flare, and the artillery team still fired as planned.
He ordered the leader of the work team next to him: "Don't mess up your position. Your team must guard these courtyards to ensure the safety of the machine gun team upstairs. If the bandits from the county government run this way, we will open fire."
Then take out the flare gun and extract the large paper tube bullet inside.
There is no point in setting off flares anymore.
"Captain, where are you going?"
"Don't worry, I won't go to the county government office."
"Don't lie to me. We need command and coordination now. Give me the flare gun and I'll go to the county government office."
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Captain Geng pushed the squad leader behind the brick wall: "Hurry up and watch, I'll go find Instructor Wang to discuss the matter."
After occupying the city tower, the students from the fifth division guarding the east city gate followed into the city. Under the leadership of the work team, they quickly eliminated the bandit soldiers stationed in the east city gate.
Under the suppression of machine guns on the tower, the team began to slowly advance from the east gate into the city.
There are many shops on both sides of the main street that runs from east to west.
The attacking soldiers habitually yelled: "Hand in your guns and surrender without killing" and "Priority to prisoners from the Eighth Route Army."
If no one in the room answers, just fire the grenade and throw it into the nearby shop.
With the sound of explosions, the bandits who had planned to fight back ran directly to the backyard.
The bandits have been living here for a long time. How could they not know that the shops close to the main street are a trap?
As for surrender, the situation is unclear now. Who knows whether the Eighth Route Army will escape after a few hits?
Hiding in the cellar, hiding in the chicken cage, hiding in the doghouse, lying under the bed
Go wherever you can find cover.
Going out at this time?
Guns don't recognize people
The purpose of this battle is to test the student squad's night attack capabilities.
Instead of letting the student class fight head-on with the bandits, the grassroots commanders who have participated in the Anti-Japanese War study are treasures.
It cannot be compromised in clearing out the remaining enemies and cleaning up the battlefield.
Soon, the division chief ordered a battalion of the Fourth Route Army to guard the east of the city and arrange for two companies to enter the city from the east gate.
After entering the city, under the command of the team members, they immediately dispersed to eliminate the remaining enemies and seize supplies.
The number of common people in the bandit den is very small, so there is almost no need to worry about wrong seizures.
For a moment, shouts of "Hand over the gun will not kill you", "Raise your hands" and "I'll kill you if I run again" started from the East Gate and spread in a fan shape along the streets and alleys.
There are still many bandit soldiers who are stubbornly resisting.
A grenade and a burst of gunfire directly enforce battlefield discipline!
The butt of the gun hits the back of a person who is stuck in the house and refuses to go out. At this time, there is no time to examine whether you are a common person or a bandit soldier!
Immediately afterwards, the Fourth Route Army entered the county town from the south gate and the north gate, climbed the city wall, and seized the commanding heights to prevent the bandits from jumping over the wall.
It seems that all the bandits have been surrounded, but it is not easy to eliminate all the bandits in the city.
Unless the bandits surrender.
It is simply not cost-effective to force an attack and engage in street fighting, and to fight the bandits for casualties.
The bandit soldiers can recruit one or two thousand people in one or two months, but it is not easy to develop and expand the division!
So far, the regulations of superiors cannot be violated. Commanding troops to fight for casualties with bandits is called military adventurism!
Guns and artillery fired in the city.
The west side outside the city is relatively quiet.
Hu Yi held up the telescope, and the fire in the city turned half of the sky red.
Next to him, more than a dozen people craning their necks to watch the excitement were muttering to each other.
The sound of gunfire made people's blood boil. The soldiers who were unable to participate in the siege and were reduced to soy sauce were filled with regret.
Until now, the west city gate, which had almost no gunshots, remained closed.
It shows that the bandits in the city are not in chaos yet.
Correspondents kept coming to report the progress of the battlefield in the city.
Mancang came to Hu Yi's side: "Batalion Commander, should we go over and make arrangements?"
"Wait a little longer." Hu Yi's voice was cold. There was still no news about Luo Fugui and Li Huanzhang.
Luo Fugui, who was born a bandit, had no need to worry about him when he entered the bandits' den.
What he worried about was accidental damage from shelling and machine gun fire.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered: "Notify this. After the battle starts, the observers must look carefully. If they find that some of the bandit soldiers leaving the city have white towels wrapped on their arms, they should immediately give the order to cease fire."
