Devil's Army

The political commissar suggested using tanks as the vanguard to attack forward.

A brigade commander rejected the idea, saying that in the narrow alleys of the city, tanks were like moving iron coffins. The houses on both sides of the street were full of dangers. A Japanese human bomb could blow up a tank.

Finally, everyone agreed to use 40 rockets to eliminate the Japanese firepower points hidden in civilian houses.

Soldiers from a brigade crawled toward the civilian houses occupied by the Japanese, with rocket launcher soldiers following closely behind them.

Once they entered the shooting range, the Japs fired at a brigade of soldiers from a high position in a civilian house.

The soldiers of the first brigade were suppressed and could not raise their heads, but they kept jumping and rolling to shoot at the devils in the civilian houses, pointing the way for the rocket launcher soldiers.

The Japanese machine guns kept firing at the soldiers of the First Brigade in the civilian houses, and from time to time there was a "whoosh" sound coming from behind the soldiers of the First Brigade. Rocket launcher shells rushed towards the Japanese firing points with sparks.

The Japanese machine gun fire points hidden in the civilian houses became silent with the sounds of bombing and the collapse of civilian houses.

The soldiers of the First Brigade drove the Japanese soldiers step by step towards Changtu County. When they arrived at the central street, they found that the Japanese soldiers who were used as cannon fodder had successfully bought time for the Japanese soldiers behind them. They had already built several fortifications on the central street to block the attack of the First Brigade.

After doing all this, Major Zuochuan also asked for help from Commander Ling Qilong in Fengtian.

Commander Ling Qilong was very annoyed that the Devil Force had once again taken action in advance, disrupting his plan. He ordered the commander of the Jinzhou Division, Sakamoto, to launch an attack on the Devil Force with him tomorrow to support the battle in Kaiyuan City.

What Commander Ling Qilong did not expect was that Jinzhou soon replied with a telegram that they were also being attacked by the devil troops, and he was now conducting a comprehensive search for the invading devil troops.

Commander Ling Kulong silently put down the telegram. Could it be that the Devil Army is now strong enough to handle several battles at the same time?

In the end, Commander Ling Qilong decided to launch the Wangjiadagou Gold Mine battle tomorrow, to attack Wei and support the battle in Kaiyuan.

The battle at the east gate of Kaiyuan entered a stalemate for a while.

The Jackal saw that the First Brigade had successfully entered the city, and the rest of the matter was left to the First Brigade Commander. He was worried about the dock, so he decided to go to the village where the munitions were stored to see if there was anything he could help with.

Before Jackal and his men reached the village, they heard fierce gunfire coming from the village.

"Something's happening, let's go." the Jackal called out.

Fortunately, the fourteen trucks of ammunition had been hidden in the village, and the Japanese could not find them unless they attacked the village.

The Jackal's special forces quietly surrounded the Japanese and puppet troops who were attacking the guerrillas in the village from the outside.

Although the guerrillas had upgraded their weapons and had been trained for more than a week, their military quality was still not very good.

The Japanese troops surrounding the village were only the size of a small team, and the puppet army consisted of only forty or fifty people, which was about the same number as the guerrillas, who were always suppressed and beaten.

Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire outside the village, which cheered Li Hongmei up.

The villagers had asked her to evacuate in advance, and they were currently fighting the Japanese outside the village from the houses. They had already lost more than 20 guerrillas.

In less than half an hour, all the Japanese invaders and puppet troops who had hastily responded to the battle were wiped out by the special forces.

Jackal ordered his team members to clean up the battlefield, and he and several special forces members entered the village.

Li Hongmei and some dusty guerrillas shouted happily: "Captain Zhang is back! Captain Zhang is back..." and came out to greet him.

"What's going on?" Jackal asked Li Hongmei.

"I went out with two guerrillas to see what the situation was like in Kaiyuan City. Soon after we came back, the Japanese surrounded us."

"Didn't you notice if there was a tail behind you?"

"We noticed, there is no tail!"

Jackal didn't want to dwell on this issue any more. It was obvious that they were being followed by the Japanese.

Jackal originally wanted to go to the dock to help the first and second regiments. But now he didn't know whether the Japanese soldiers who surrounded the village had reported to their superiors. If they had, then this place would have been exposed. If this small group of Japanese soldiers didn't go back to report, the large group of Japanese soldiers would soon arrive.

"Dwarf Wolf, arrange for the transfer immediately. Captain Li, go and inform the villagers not to return to the village for the time being to prevent the Japanese from retaliating."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Li Hongmei knew that she had gotten into trouble, and she was more worried than anyone else about bringing disaster to her fellow villagers.

"Signalman, contact the First Regiment to see what the situation is like at the dock."

"Yes".

Everyone started to work in an orderly manner.

The battlefield had been cleaned up, and the bodies of the Japanese and puppet soldiers on the ground had been thrown onto trucks by the soldiers. The bloodstains on the ground had also been covered up and cleared away.

The trucks drove out of the village one after another, and led by Li Hongmei, headed for the village ahead, so that they would know immediately if the Japanese passed by the original village to search for them.

The signalman also came to report: There is currently no sign of reinforcements from the Japanese on both sides of the dock, and the dock is still in their hands.

When Jackal heard this, he felt relieved. He could focus on the Japanese here and prevent them from harming the original village.
