Devil's Army

On the second day after Shangdu County was fully recovered, a regiment commander and guards arrived at the command center in Shangdu County.

Deputy Captain Wu accompanied the third battalion commander to meet the first regiment commander.

Deputy Captain Wu told the commander of the first regiment: The Japanese army in Huade County has cavalry and mechanized troops, and the infantry will easily suffer losses if they attack the city like this.

The commander of a regiment received intelligence about the Japanese army in Huade County and decided to postpone the attack on Huade County. He first transferred the tank battalion. However, there was a knot in the commander's heart that he had not untied. That is, where exactly was the Japanese cavalry battalion in Jining County hiding?

A regimental commander sent a telegram back to the barracks to inquire about the interrogation of the two Japanese scouts.

The communicator's reply disappointed the regiment commander.

The two Japanese scouts were beaten black and blue, but they were determined to die and refused to cooperate.

The soldiers of the regiment forced them to eat liquid food to prevent them from dying. When they were in better spirits, they began to interrogate and torture them.

This made the Japanese scouts unable to live or die.

In order to guard against the Japanese cavalry brigade, the commander of the regiment did not dare to call the tank company in the barracks and the tank company in Jining County. He could only order the tank company stationed on Shengli Road to march eastward to assist in attacking the Japanese cavalry and mechanized forces in Huade County.

Who knew that this decision made by the regiment commander would put the army in a passive position.

The Major's Devil Troops of Zhuozi County set up an empty city formation to tease the enemy, and became angry and decided to attack Liangcheng County again.

When the tank company on Shengli Road was transferred to Huade County for reinforcement, the major once again assembled heavy troops to attack Liangcheng County.

When the Liangcheng County correspondent asked for help from the regiment commander, the tank company originally stationed on Shengli Road had already arrived in Shangdu County.

At this time, the main force of the first regiment was transferred to Shangdu County, and Liangcheng County could only mobilize two companies of the second battalion.

The commander of a regiment immediately requested air force support from Xinjing.

The First Army's air force acted quickly. Before the Japanese troops in Zhuozi County arrived at the city of Liangcheng County, the First Army's air force had already reached their skies.

As soon as the Japanese infantry and artillery heard the roar of planes in the sky, they immediately hid on both sides of the road, looking for cover to avoid air raids.

The First Army's air force then strafed and bombed the remaining Japanese and puppet troops on the road, but the effect was far less effective than the previous two times.

After the First Army's air force returned, the Japanese army continued to advance towards Liangcheng County.

The Japanese army arrived at the north gate of Liangcheng County.

The Japanese artillery began to launch a fierce bombardment on the fortifications of the Eighth Route Army Cavalry Detachment on the north gate wall of Liangcheng County.

Captain Yao only left a few soldiers to observe the movements of the Japanese army, and the other soldiers retreated.

After the Japanese artillery stopped bombing, the infantry began to launch a fierce attack on Liangcheng County under the cover of mortars and machine gunners.

While Captain Yao organized the cavalry to help climb the city wall to block the Japanese attack, he asked the signalman to ask for help from the commander of the first regiment.

After a while, two companies of the first battalion of the first regiment launched a fierce attack on the Japanese troops attacking the city from the direction of Shengli Road.

However, the Japanese army had been on guard against the devil troops in the direction of Shengli Road, and the attack of the first battalion was firmly blocked by the Japanese army outside the defense line.

A battalion commander launched two large-scale charges in succession, but failed to break through the Japanese defense line.

The Japanese army also dispatched mortar troops to fiercely bombard the soldiers of the first battalion.

In order to deal with the Japanese mortars and enhance firepower and penetration capability, a regiment commander urgently mobilized the tank company and troops from Jining County to reinforce, but who knew that this would put Jining County in danger again.
