Devil's Army

Chapter 1382: Encirclement and Annihilation of the Fleeing Japanese Army

After daybreak, the Japanese commander of Tianbao Town learned that their commander had been ambushed by the devil troops in Mali Town and had died. He could only take on the responsibility of commander and order the remaining Japanese troops in Mali Town to approach them and rush to Donggan Town together.

At this time, Donggan Town was still in the hands of the Japanese army, but the Third Battalion of the Second Regiment and the Third Battalion of the 73rd Regiment of the government army had surrounded Donggan Town.

The second regiment commander heard from the first and second battalion commanders that the Japanese garrisons in Mali Town and Tianbao Town had not been completely wiped out. He immediately arranged for troops to set up defenses on both wings of the siege force to prevent the remnants of the Japanese army from launching a surprise attack.

At the same time, he ordered the commanders of the first and second battalions to send troops to reinforce Donggan Town.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, soldiers from the rd Battalion, nd Regiment, rd Independent Division of the Gui-Yunnan Front Army launched a fierce attack on Donggan Town from the south gate.

The Third Battalion of the Second Regiment of the 52rd Division of the 73nd Army of the Nanjing Government Army launched a fierce attack on Donggan Town from the east gate.

The Japanese troops were divided into two groups and relied on the city walls to stubbornly block the attacks of the First Army and the government forces.

The 52nd Regiment of the Gui-Yunnan Front Army lacked heavy artillery, and the small amount of artillery of the 73rd Regiment of the nd Army was also destroyed by the Japanese.

The casualties from the infantry's light weapons siege were too great.

Captain Liu discussed with Captain Huang and decided to temporarily stop the siege and wait for their planes to come to support them.

Captain Liu and his men had just stopped attacking the city when the fleeing Japanese troops, led by the commander of Tianbao Town, launched a fierce attack on the left wing of the Third Battalion of the Second Regiment.

The soldiers of the Third Battalion, who had been prepared, immediately got into position to block the Japanese attack.

The commander of the Donggan Town army saw that the demon troops and the Nanjing government had stopped attacking them, but heard fierce gunfire from the southern position of Donggan Town. He knew that their reinforcements were coming, so he immediately organized his troops to go out of the city and attack the demon troops.

As soon as the Japanese troops in Donggan Town went out of the city gate, they were hit head-on by the third battalion of troops and had to retreat back into the city.

The Japanese commander outside the city admired the strong combat effectiveness of the Devil's troops, but on the other hand he increased the intensity of the attack.

He had to join forces with the Japanese troops in Donggan Town to block the attack of the devil troops and wait for reinforcements from the follow-up troops in Laojie.

However, what made the Japanese commander speechless was that before they could break through the defense line of the Devil Force, two companies of the first battalion of the Devil Force had already rushed over from Mali Town and launched a fierce attack on them from behind.

The Japanese commander had no choice but to divide his troops to block the attack of the first battalion and at the same time speed up the breakthrough of the third battalion's defense line.

The soldiers of the third company of the third battalion came under even more fierce attack from the Japanese army.

Seeing that the Third Company was having some difficulty in stopping the Japanese army, the Third Battalion Commander quickly transferred the Second Company, which was directly guarding against the Japanese army in Donggan Town, to provide support.

The fierce attack of the Japanese army was stopped, but the first battalion divided its troops to encircle the left wing of the Japanese army.

Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through the Devil Forces' defense line, the Japanese army had to break out to the right wing.

However it was too late.

The second battalion commander rushed over from Tianbao Town with two companies and blocked the retreat route of the Japanese army's right wing.

The Japanese army launched a fierce attack on the Second Battalion, which had not yet established a firm foothold, but was repelled by the soldiers of the Second Battalion.

Seeing this, the second regiment commander was ready to order the annihilation of the Japanese troops in the encirclement. However, the first, second and third battalions had already launched a fierce attack on the Japanese troops in the encirclement almost at the same time.

The Japanese army's maneuvering space was gradually compressed by the three battalions of the Second Regiment, and they retreated to a small section of the woods on the trail.

After a bloody battle by soldiers from three battalions of the Second Regiment, all the Japanese troops in the encirclement were wiped out.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the soldiers of the Second Regiment freed up their hands to deal with the Japanese troops in Donggan Town.
