Devil's Army

The commander of the Japanese reinforcements heard that the gunfire at Aozuikou had stopped and realized that the breakout operation had failed, so he retreated with all his might.

Unfortunately, they were already a few steps too late. The First Battalion of the Third Regiment had already moved behind them, built simple fortifications on their retreat route, and were ready to face the enemy.

The commander of the Japanese reinforcements was immediately discouraged when he saw that his retreat was blocked. He had only a few hundred soldiers to fight against more than 4,000 devil troops, and he didn't know how to win. But no matter what, he only had one way out, which was to rush to Diaobingshan County.

He personally rushed to the front line, waving his command knife, and ordered a squadron of devils to charge. His troops could not charge forward at full speed, and had to divide their troops to block the devil troops on both sides of the path. He seemed to see the emperor waving to him.

The first battalion had two light machine guns on the left and right and a heavy machine gun in the middle, which kept mowing down the charging Japanese soldiers of this squadron. The Japanese soldiers fell one after another.

Before all the Japanese soldiers in this squadron fell, an LR-4 bullet hit the forehead of the Japanese commander.

A stream of red and white liquid flowed out from the hole in his forehead, and the Japanese commander fell straight down.

Another lieutenant took over the baton. The Japanese soldiers of the squadron that had just charged were almost wiped out, so he ordered the Japanese soldiers of the other squadron to continue charging, because he had no other way to retreat except charging.

The artillery of the devil troops exploded among the devils from time to time. The puppet army's fighting will was far weaker than that of the Kwantung Army. They finally collapsed and surrendered one after another.

Wulang launched a general attack, and shouts of killing came from all directions.

In the end, the Japanese reinforcements were completely wiped out. Wu Lang captured more than 300 puppet soldiers and more than 60 Japanese soldiers, including the corporal whose hand was injured by the captain.

At this time, there were less than 500 Japanese and puppet troops left in Tiaobinshan County. Wu Lang wanted to take the opportunity to capture Tiaobinshan County. He asked the messenger to send a telegram to Leng Feng immediately.

After a while, Leng Feng called back: Agree to retake Tiaobinshan County. But we should first send people to sneak into Tiaobinshan County and wait for an opportunity to occupy the ammunition and food supply warehouse. If necessary, we can also cooperate with the outside.

Wu Lang immediately formed an advance team and sneaked into Diaobingshan County in the form of a defeated army. However, the defeated army must understand the situation of the enemy army and the garrison in the city.

Wu Lang immediately interrogated the puppet army and the Japanese army. To his surprise, one company of puppet army was originally from the Northeast Army, and their regiment leader defected to the devils, so they passively became puppet army. Their regiment leader was annihilated and died in the last encirclement and suppression of the devil troops with Pingjin Chuanshu. Their company was left behind in Tiaobingshan County at that time. They were the only remaining puppet army. The current puppet army was later transferred from Faku County. They were often excluded, and they lived a very angry life.

When Captain Tang heard that Wu Lang was looking for someone to infiltrate Tiaobingshan County, he volunteered to fight.

After much consideration, Wu Lang finally asked Captain Tang to pick twenty reliable brothers to join them.

At this time, the regiment commander who had been learning Japanese from Wenlang came to find Wulang with the Japanese corporal with the injured palm.

"Commander, this corporal said he was originally an anti-war activist and was forcibly conscripted. He is willing to lead us into Tiaobingshan County."

"Okay, take him with you."

Wu Lang selected 100 soldiers from the first battalion of the first regiment, dressed them up in the clothes of the Japanese and puppet soldiers, and pretended to flee in front with Captain Tang and the Japanese corporal, while Wu Lang's troops chased them from behind.

Captain Tang led 19 puppet soldiers and the Japanese corporal and ran in front, shouting to the sentry at the gate as he ran: "The devil troops are coming, the devil troops are coming."

The Japanese and puppet troops at the gate of Diaobingshan County saw the devil troops chasing them from afar, and after the 121 defeated soldiers fled into the city, they quickly closed the city gates and climbed up the city walls to prepare for the devil troops.

Wu Lang then ordered the Second Brigade to surround the west gate, south gate and east gate of Tiaobinshan County.

A regiment commander wanted to use the same method he used against Aozuikou to deal with Tiaobingshan County, so that the losses of the troops would be minimized.

Wu Lang did not agree. Because there were still thousands of civilians in Diaobingshan County, if Diaobingshan County was surrounded, the Japanese and puppet troops would go to the civilians' homes to steal their food and drinks. At that time, the unarmed civilians would suffer.

The next morning, Wang Zhuangfei sent the 150st Battalion of the st Regiment to bring over one of the th Brigade's only two mm howitzers.

The recapture of Tiaobinshan County will be the first county they have recaptured since the establishment of the First Army, which is of great significance.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, a flare rushed out of the city.

"Start!" Wu Lang ordered the siege to begin.

The 150mm howitzer fired at the south gate wall of Tiaobinshan County. The wall of Tiaobinshan County dented and a large crack appeared. The Japanese and puppet troops near the explosion point on the wall flew everywhere along with the flying bricks and soil.

Then there was another shot, and the city wall collapsed directly.

A group of soldiers outside the south gate city wall, led by a regiment commander, quickly rushed into Tiaobinshan County through the gap in the city wall.

There were only about a hundred Japanese soldiers and puppet troops stationed at the South Gate. After being bombarded twice by large-caliber howitzers, they were unable to organize an effective defense line. They could only retreat while fighting.

The first regiment easily entered Tiaobinshan County.

When the regiment commander led his troops to the Japanese headquarters, the advance team that sneaked in yesterday had already occupied the Japanese headquarters and eliminated dozens of Japanese soldiers in the headquarters.

The food and ammunition depot not far away had also been occupied by the advance team.

Since there were not many Japanese and puppet troops in Tiaobinshan County, the stockpiled food and ammunition was not much. It would be more appropriate to call it a storage point rather than a food and ammunition depot.

A regiment of soldiers chased down the remaining Japanese devils and captured the remaining puppet troops in the city.

In less than an hour, the battle was over and Tiaobinshan County was recaptured!
