Devil's Army

Leng Feng ordered the Gray Wolf special forces to look for every opportunity to attack the railways, trains, bridges or culverts where the Japanese transported troops and supplies, in order to delay the strategic deployment of the Japanese as much as possible.

So Gray Wolf divided the nearly 400-man special forces into two teams, one led by Jackal. He personally led the other team and prepared to set out in two directions towards the enemy's transportation line.

Later, Secretary Li's underground staff brought information that the Japanese reinforcements and supplies would come in three routes instead of two.

All the way from Dalian, it was transported to Fengtian via the railway operation port; one way was from Hulugang, by railway via Jinzhou and Panjin to Fengtian; the last way was by railway from Xinjing via Gongzhuling, Siping, Changtu to Kaiyuan.

It seems that Tieling County is in danger.

Gray Wolf ordered Jackal to lead three teams of more than 130 special forces members to destroy the transportation line from Kaiyuan to Xinjing.

Mao Lang also led three teams of special forces with more than 130 people to destroy the transportation line from Yaobao Town to Yingkou and Dalian.

Gray Wolf personally led three teams of special forces with 120 people to destroy the transportation lines from Panjin, Jinzhou to Hulugang.

The mission of the Jackal team was the most important. If they failed to destroy the railway line from Xinjing to Kaiyuan, the Japanese would reach the Tieling County base that Leng Feng had been carefully managing as soon as they crossed the north of Xiaoliang River. This was something Leng Feng could not accept.

Moreover, this will cause war to break out again in Tieling County, and the county's economy, which has already been profitable, will suffer a major setback.

The Gray Wolf assigned the flying dragon to the Jackal, and cooperated with the Jackal to destroy this transportation line.

Jackal led the special forces team directly across the Xiaoliang River and arrived at the headquarters of the Second Regiment of the Seventh Brigade.

The commander of the Seventh Brigade, Honglang, personally led his troops to garrison here.

The two brothers did not see each other during the New Year, so Honglang brewed a pot of the best Tieguanyin tea given by the old county magistrate.

"Brother, your special forces team is ready to come here. Do the Japanese in Kaiyuan City have any ideas?" Red Wolf asked Jackal while pouring tea.

"Do we need to come here to deal with the small things in Kaiyuan? Your brother Red Wolf opened his bloody mouth and ate them all."

"You make me sound like a devil."

"Our First Army has been called the Devil's Army by the Japanese. Which of our senior commanders is not a devil?"

"That's true. Come, have a sip of the good tea the old county magistrate sent you."

"Yes, it's good tea, sweet. Alas, if we don't fight well in this battle, we may not be able to drink such good tea as the old county magistrate's."

"Is the situation so serious?" A worried look began to appear on Red Wolf's face.

"Xinjing has been sending reinforcements and strategic materials to Kaiyuan. If their troops and materials are ready, they can rush north of Xiaoliang River from Kaiyuan. Once we cross the river, we will reach Xintieling County. Do you think the old county magistrate can still sit still? Can we still develop with peace of mind?"

"You came here just to disrupt their transportation lines?"

Smart people understand things immediately without having to be told.

The Jackal nodded and asked the Red Wolf, "The railway from Kaiyuan to Tieling County hasn't been restored yet, right?"

"It has not been restored yet. Otherwise, the Japanese would have rushed to Tieling County on the railway. We would have been unable to fight this battle."

"You try to restore it today, and I'll get you something good."

"I understand. There is nothing more satisfying than using the Japs' weapons and ammunition to fight the Japs."

Hahaha, the two of them laughed knowingly.

The Jackal drank a few more cups of tea, said goodbye to the Red Wolf, and brought the special forces team to the outskirts of Kaiyuan City.

The enemy's defense at the gate of Kaiyuan City was quite strict. There were two circular fortifications on both sides of the gate, each with two enemy soldiers and a heavy machine gun.

There were four Japanese soldiers and a squad of puppet soldiers at the door checking passers-by.

Jackal arranged for the first squad to disperse and enter the city in twos and threes. Another squad watched outside the city, and if there was any unusual movement, they would knock down the Japanese and puppet troops at the gate.

The first team of special forces, led by Jackal, successfully sneaked into Kaiyuan City. When the second team had just sneaked in with ten people and the third group was about to sneak in, there were suddenly more strangers entering the city, and the Japanese suddenly became more strict in their interrogation. They also checked whether there were calluses on the palms of their hands.

The third squad that was providing cover resolutely opened fire and killed four Japanese soldiers in the circular fortifications at the gate.

As the gunshots rang out, chaos broke out at the gate of Kaiyuan City. Five special forces took advantage of the chaos and sneaked into Kaiyuan City with the panicked civilians.

Fearing that he would be questioned by the Japanese, Jackal did not bring Feilong's operator into the city.

Without the operator, the dragons are useless, and their equipment is also unavailable.

Jackal and two special forces followed Feilong to a section of the city wall where no enemy patrols were seen. As expected, they heard the special forces' contact code: the urgent cry of an owl.

The three of Jackal quickly ran to the city wall and responded with the owl's cry.

Soon, two special forces soldiers outside the city wall ran to the side of the city wall with flying dragon operators.

The Jackal quickly threw the rope down the city wall, and the two special forces members stared at both sides of the wall vigilantly.

The special forces outside the city wall quickly tied the flying dragon operator firmly. Jackal quickly pulled the flying dragon operator up to the city wall and whispered to the special forces outside the city wall: "Find a way to sneak into the city tomorrow and meet up along the railway line."

The two special forces members took the order and left, and Jackal also took the two special forces members and quickly left the city wall to prepare for action.
