The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

"At the same time, increase the intensity of the attack. Send five more firepower teams up to take down the street in front. I don't believe that the devil can hold his breath." Yang Ling is like a gambler at the moment, he is betting on the devil's command Officials will call for help.

The fighting in the city lasted most of the night, and the devil's commander, Watanabe Shouichi, had already lost his composure for a long time. He had already sent several harsh telegrams, asking the devils who went to the countryside to suppress the guerrillas to return for help.

Moreover, Gu Chuan, Takahashi and other brigades are on their way back at the moment, but the road is slippery in the dark and they are marching on foot, so the speed is naturally not fast enough.

Yang Ling and his troops continued to put pressure on the devils in the city to intensify their bombardment. The heavy machine guns were also adjusted up. The Type [-] heavy machine guns swept along the street, causing heavy losses to the devils.

"The devil's warehouse was taken down by us!"

"We took down three more fire support points of the Devils."

"The third company has already attacked from the side and back to the vicinity of the devil's headquarters, only one street away."

……

Although the troops controlled the rhythm of the attack, as time went by, they had already occupied most of the city's blocks, and the devil's defense area had been gradually eroded.

As long as Yang Ling and the others are willing, the battle can be over within half an hour, but there is no news of the devil's reinforcements yet.

"Let the brothers advance another 50 meters." Yang Ling ordered.

"Sir, don't wait any longer... If you continue to fight, the devil will be finished." Staff officer Lei Xiong frowned and suggested.

Now the devil's reinforcements have not moved. If they wipe out all the devils in the city, without the bait, the devil's reinforcements may not be able to mobilize even more.

"Execute the order. If there is no news of the devil's reinforcements after dawn, just attack and destroy the devils in the city, and then turn around to rescue the besieged brothers." Yang Ling said after a pause.

"Yes—" Lei Xiong, the staff officer, sighed, turned around and passed the order.

Text Chapter 170 Nine in Desperate Situation

"Bang bang bang..."

Before dawn, there were muffled gunshots on the street outside, and the distance to the devil headquarters in Baoying County was getting closer and closer.

The gunshot sounded like a death talisman, making the devil's staff officers in the devil's headquarters extremely nervous like ants on a hot pot.

The communication staff officer of the flustered devil was directly guarding the radio station, constantly urging the telegraph operator to send a telegram for help.

The explosion of the cannonballs sounded like a prehistoric monster about to emerge from the ground. Every time it roared, the ground trembled, as if it was about to crack the ground at any time.

The lamp hanging on the roof shook with violent tremors. Hisao Watanabe, the leader of the devil's detachment, sat in front of the map with a saber in both hands and closed his eyes to doze off. Although he looked calmer than the staff officers, his heart was stirred up.

The devil's detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi was transferred from the frontal battlefield to the enemy's rear battlefield. In fact, he was extremely reluctant to come to the occupied area to carry out the so-called security operations.

In just two years, he was promoted from minor to major, all thanks to his solid military exploits.

With his bravery, as long as he is willing to fight a few more battles on the frontal battlefield, I am afraid that he can be promoted to the rank of major general, and his chief is also very optimistic about him.

But he came to the occupied area to carry out the so-called security operations, although his chief still promised that as long as he eliminated the guerrillas and regular Chinese troops in the occupied area and accumulated military merits, he would also be promoted to major general.

But Shouichi Watanabe, the leader of the devil's detachment, knows very well that once the guerrillas behind the enemy are wiped out, even if he is promoted to a major general, then he may stop his military career as a major general in his life. very reluctantly.

But in the face of the command of the headquarters, even though he had 1 reluctances in his heart, he still had to come here to serve as the detachment leader and be responsible for eliminating the guerrillas.

He also wanted to find an opportunity to return to the frontal battlefield after the guerrillas were wiped out. Who would have thought that today they would be in a desperate situation of life and death.

In order to wipe out the guerrillas as soon as possible, he sent most of the troops to the countryside to suppress them. In Baoying City, there was only one infantry squadron and a small number of traitor plainclothes troops left behind.

But who knew that the main force of the northern Jiangsu guerrillas appeared outside Baoying City after all calculations, which caught him by surprise.

Although he experienced the initial panic, Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the Devil's Detachment, quickly calmed down.

This is the so-called effortless finding nowhere to go. They searched everywhere for the main force of the northern Jiangsu guerrillas, and now the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps came to their door on their own initiative.

Therefore, Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the Devil's Detachment, decided to use his own tactics as a bait, hoping to stick to the North Jiangsu Guerrilla Corps, and then ordered the troops who went to the countryside to return immediately to counter the encirclement of the Subei Guerrilla Corps. Then catch them all.

It's a pity that the plan can't keep up with the changes. They tried to rely on the barricades in the city to stop the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps, and let the main force return to Baoying.

He underestimated the combat effectiveness of the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps. He thought that with the cooperation of an infantry squadron and a traitor plainclothes team, it would be enough to hold on for one night.

But now there is no sign of the returning troops, but the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps has already attacked near his headquarters.

If the returning reinforcements could not come back in time, then his anti-siege plan using himself as a bait this time would not only go bankrupt, but he would also have to take himself into it.

This time, do I really want to break the jade here?

The devil's detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi kept questioning himself in his heart, he was full of extreme unwillingness, he had already scolded those team leaders who were slow to return to aid countless times in his heart.

If they were able to return in time, the situation would not deteriorate to the current state, and their lives would not be threatened.

The devil's detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi was very upset, but he couldn't show it.

At this moment, he is the commander in the city, and he must remain calm and composed. Once he panics, the remaining garrison troops may not be able to withstand the attack of the guerrillas.

Although the guns were rumbling outside, the inside of the devil's headquarters was extraordinarily quiet, in stark contrast to the outside.

Now Watanabe Shou, the leader of the devil's detachment, has only one gamble left, that is, the betting that the troops returning to the aid will come back before the guerrillas break through their defense line, otherwise he will be killed in battle.

If the returning reinforcements can come back in time, they will be able to encircle the guerrillas and win a huge victory, otherwise they will be finished.

War is inherently a risky gamble, not only Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the devil's detachment, but also Yang Ling of the Subei Guerrilla Corps.

"Report, we only have the last line of defense left, all officers please break through immediately!"

When the devil's detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi and the staff were in a state of anxiety, a blood-stained devil second lieutenant rushed in, breaking the dullness in the headquarters.

Their last line of defense was set up on the street in front of the county government, which meant that as long as this line of defense fell, the headquarters would be directly exposed to the guns of the guerrillas.

"Your Excellency, Detachment Captain, let's break out, the reinforcements will not be able to come back."

Knowing that the situation had reached an extremely critical moment, the combat staff officer couldn't bear it any longer, and hurriedly turned his attention to the detachment leader Shouichi Watanabe who was sitting there.

"Your Excellency, Captain, we will cover you and kill a bloody road." The devil's staff officers all pulled out their equipped southern pistols one after another, ready to participate in the battle in person.

All the ghosts in the room turned their attention to the detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi. Watanabe Shouichi slowly opened his eyes, looked at the officers who were about to fight to the death, and slowly asked, "Where is the reinforcement?"

The devil's communications staff officer was taken aback, and immediately replied: "The nearest Guchuan Brigade has just passed Shuiquan Village in 10 minutes, and it only takes one hour to reach Baoying."

"Then please hold on for another hour, gentlemen." The devil's detachment leader Shou Watanabe glanced around, pleading.

The leader of the devil detachment ordered: "Let all the miscellaneous soldiers and heavy soldiers go up."

"I went to the top an hour ago, and now there are only us staff members in the headquarters." A devil staff officer reminded.

The devil's detachment leader Watanabe Toshiichi stood up, pulled out his own gun and said, "Then fight with me." After speaking, he was about to walk out of the house.

The devil's combat staff hurriedly stopped the detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi: "Your Excellency, the detachment leader, it is dangerous outside, you should stay here and direct the battle."
