Devil's Army

The Jackal did not need to approach the city gate, but used the flying dragon to observe the new hiding place of the devils. Then he used the flying dragon to pass the information to the artillery of the Third Brigade.

Soon, the Japanese soldiers hiding in the new place were subjected to intensive artillery bombardment by the Third Brigade.

After the bombardment, the new place where the Japanese were hiding was in a mess. The Japanese captain looked at the soldiers wailing and groaning on the ground, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

After two rounds of precise bombardment by the Devil's Army, more than half of his troops had been killed. As a last resort, he ran back to the headquarters to request support.

The person in charge of the defense of Chaoyang County was Colonel Inoue of the 336th Battalion. He had heard the artillery fire of the Devil's Army, but he did not expect that these two rounds of artillery fire would cause the loss of most of his squadron guarding the south gate of Chaoyang County.

Colonel Inoue asked the captain with a dark face: "Didn't you arrange for the soldiers to hide from the artillery?"

"I arranged for the soldiers to hide in the places where they hid from the artillery before, but this time the devil troops did not bomb the city walls, but directly and accurately bombed the place where we were hiding."

"That's the artillery observer from the Devil's Army who sneaked into the city."

"I thought so at first, but I blocked all the roads near the city gates, and we had people patrolling around, so we didn't find the Devil Army's artillery observers. But the Devil Army's artillery still bombarded our new hiding place accurately."

Colonel Inoue believed that the captain deliberately exaggerated the story of the Devil's Army in order to shirk responsibility, so he sent another squadron and personally led the team to the South Gate to inspect the situation.

Colonel Inoue led his team to the south gate of Chaoyang County while paying close attention to the captain's defense.

What surprised him was that the captain had indeed arranged soldiers to stand guard in places where outsiders could observe the defense of the South Gate. It was impossible for the artillery observers of the Devil's Army to get close to the South Gate. But how could their artillery bombard their soldiers' hiding places so accurately?

Before the colonel could figure out what was happening, artillery shells from the 3rd Brigade whistled towards the squadron he had just brought.

"Colonel, be careful!" The guards on both sides of Inoue threw him to the ground.

Shells exploded all around the colonel.

The Devil's troops' shelling stopped, and the soldiers pulled away the guards who were throwing themselves at the colonel.

Of the four soldiers who threw themselves on the colonel, two were dead and two were injured.

The colonel, who was helped up by the soldiers, shook his head; his ears were still buzzing.

The colonel looked around and saw many imperial soldiers lying around. Some were groaning softly, while others were already dead. The squadron leader who came with him was also killed.

The colonel looked at the devastated South Gate position, and only then did he believe what the captain said about the Devil Unit's artillery being very strange.

He originally wanted the new squadron to take over the captain's defense, and the captain's squadron to retreat for rest. Now he simply merged the two troops into one squadron, and asked the captain to be the squadron leader and be responsible for the leadership of the new squadron.

He also instructed the captain that the Japanese soldiers in this squadron should leave a small team to patrol the city wall, and the others should retreat to the streets where there are residential houses to guard.

In this way, the devil troops would not be able to bomb them anymore out of consideration for the safety of the civilians.

Who knew that this would provide convenience for an army of soldiers to capture the South Gate.

The Jackal passed the information to the Gray Wolf, who immediately deployed a combat plan and assigned tasks to the two special forces teams that had infiltrated the city.

At seven o'clock the next morning, when the city gates had not yet opened, the Third Brigade began shelling the Chaoyang County city wall.

The Japanese at the south gate of Chaoyang County were already used to the bombardment by the Third Brigade, but this time the bombardment came earlier.

Before the Third Brigade began shelling the South Gate wall, the Jackal had already reached the vicinity of the South Gate with two special forces teams.

Jackal and his men were all wearing Japanese military uniforms. They took advantage of the Japanese soldiers' lack of reaction and killed all five of them who were guarding the fortifications leading to the south gate without anyone noticing. Then they left a small team behind.

Another small team approached the south gate of the city, waiting for an opportunity to support the attacking troops.

As soon as the artillery bombardment from the Third Brigade outside the city stopped, the soldiers launched a charge towards the south gate of Chaoyang County.

There were only a small group of more than 40 Japanese soldiers defending the city wall. When they found that the devil's troops had begun to attack the city, they hurriedly asked for help.

Who would have known that just as this small group of Japanese soldiers began to ask for help, a small team of the special forces in the city launched an attack on them.

This small group of Japanese soldiers had to block the attack of the Third Brigade outside the city, and fight back against the sniper fire from the special forces squad, so they were in a state of chaos.

The captain led the main force of the newly formed squadron to rush from the civilian houses to the south gate, hoping to reinforce the small group of Japanese soldiers at the south gate of Chaoyang County, but was desperately blocked by another special forces squad.

The Japanese squad and a platoon of puppet troops at the south gate of the city were quickly defeated by the special forces squad and the third brigade outside the city.

The special forces took the opportunity to rush to the south gate and open the south gate of Chaoyang County.

The soldiers of the Third Brigade outside the South Gate shouted and rushed into Chaoyang County.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the captain led the newly formed squadron to retreat to the headquarters in turns.

The Jackal and his special forces squad were in hot pursuit.

Under the cover of the rear guard troops, the captain finally gained a foothold and set up fortifications on the street to confront the special forces team.
