Devil's Army

Chapter 1188 Recovering the Towns and Villages Surrounding Suizhong County

The Japanese and puppet troops at the city gate were originally insufficient in manpower, but they relied on the dangerous terrain of the city gate to block the attack of the devil troops from a high position.

Now they were under fierce attack from a large group of guards inside the city. They began to be unable to resist and were defeated one after another.

Two guards opened the city gate of Suizhong County. Soldiers from the First Battalion of the First Anti-Japanese Army outside the city gate took the opportunity to rush into Suizhong County.

The soldiers of the first battalion and the members of the first brigade of the escort team joined forces to expand the victory, and finally all the Japanese and puppet troops on the city wall were wiped out during the retreat.

After the soldiers of the first battalion and the members of the escort team completely occupied Suizhong County, they began to search the entire city for the remaining Japanese and puppet troops.

The puppet army commander Wang was worried about being punished later, so he immediately tried to please Captain Guo:

"Captain Hu and I are already brothers. You are his second brother, which means you are also my second brother."

"What do you want to say?"

"I want to say, I have never done anything bad, can I join the devil army like you guys?"

"Devil's Army?"

"Oh no, it's the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army."

"You don't even know the unit number, yet you still want to join? It's the First Northeast Anti-Japanese Army of the National Revolutionary Army!"

Captain Wang smiled embarrassedly, "Hehehe..."

"Whether you have done something bad is not up to you to decide. You have to ask the people of Suizhong County."

"Yes, yes, yes," Captain Wang nodded and bowed.

After visiting the group, a battalion commander discovered that although Captain Wang had many bad habits, he had no murder cases on his hands.

Therefore, according to the tradition of the First Anti-Japanese Army, the entire regiment was transformed into a labor reform team to rebuild Suizhong County.

Captain Guo left a small team of the guard team to garrison Suizhong County, while the other team members and the soldiers of the first battalion separately cleared out the towns and villages around Suizhong County and the Japanese and puppet army strongholds.

Two days later, the Japanese and puppet army strongholds and towns around Suizhong County were all recaptured by the First Battalion and the Guards. Only the largest town, Suizhong Town, was still in the hands of the Japanese and puppet army.

The Japanese squadron leader led more than 100 Japanese soldiers who fled from Suizhong County and arrived at Suizhong Town.

In order to prevent the devil troops and the guards from taking over Suizhong Town, the squadron leader implemented temporary military control over Suizhong Town, allowing residents to leave but not come in. Anyone found suspicious would be executed immediately.

For a time, the entire Suizhou Town was in panic.

Suizhong Town was already an isolated town in the base area at this time, and it was only a matter of time before it was captured.

Since the escort team was lightly equipped and had no artillery, the Fifth Brigade Commander assigned the task of retaking Suizhong Town to the First Battalion. However, Captain Guo's First Battalion of the Guard Team was not satisfied with fighting the Japanese in Suizhong County and strongly requested to continue to take Suizhong Town.

The commander of the Fifth Brigade had no choice but to hand over the task of taking Suizhou Town to the escort team and asked for assistance from the artillery of the First Battalion.

At the same time, he told the battalion commander and Captain Guo that it was only a matter of time to take over Suizhou Town and there was no need to rush.

After discussing with Captain Guo, the first battalion commander decided to besiege the south gate and west gate of Suizhong Town, leaving the east gate and north gate for the Japanese and puppet troops to retreat, so as to avoid a desperate battle for the Japanese and puppet troops in the town and increase their casualties.

In order to prevent this group of Japanese puppet troops from escaping from Suizhong Town and causing harm to the people around the base, the commander of a battalion arranged two companies to ambush at the north gate and east gate of Suizhong Town.

Captain Guo divided the artillery of the first battalion into two teams, responsible for attacking the west gate and south gate of Suizhou Town respectively.

After lunch that day, the artillery of the first battalion simultaneously launched bombardments on the west gate and south gate of Suizhou Town.

The only remaining mortar in Suizhong Town was also destroyed in the bombardment of an artillery battalion.

In order to reduce the casualties of the escort team, the commander of the 5th Brigade arranged for the Army Aviation Soldiers to bring a Golden Eagle UAV to assist in the battle shortly after the siege began.

The Japanese and puppet troops, who had been hiding under the city wall due to the mortar bombing of the Devil's troops, were now subjected to precise bombing due to the arrival of the Golden Eagle UAV.

The squadron leader had no choice but to retreat into the houses closest to the city gate.

The firepower of the Japanese and puppet troops on the city wall decreased instantly, and the members of the escort team immediately launched a swift charge.

When the squadron leader heard the shouts of the observer on the city wall, he immediately ordered the Japanese and puppet troops in the house to rush up the city wall for reinforcement.

The Golden Eagle immediately sent the coordinates of the Japanese and puppet troops that were reinforcing to the first battalion of artillery.

Afterwards, the Japanese and puppet troops that were coming to reinforce were subjected to precise bombing by a battalion of artillery.

The lieutenant was surprised at the accuracy of the Devil's artillery fire, and suspected that there was an artillery observation post of the Devil in the city. But he soon locked his eyes on the small aircraft hovering above their heads.

He ordered his soldiers to shoot at the small aircraft, but unfortunately, it was useless except for the noise.
