Devil's Army

Everything in Fengrun County was over. In order to avoid disturbing the residents, the Fifth Brigade Commander did not allow the soldiers to enter the city.

At six o'clock the next morning, the commander of the Fifth Brigade arranged the First Company of the Second Battalion to garrison Fengrun County, while the other troops continued to march towards Yutian County.

Since the Second Company of the Second Battalion also participated in the battle last night, the Fifth Brigade Commander allowed them to rest until noon and then march quickly to catch up with the main force.

The second company commander was afraid of missing the battle, so he refused to rest and insisted on moving with the main force.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the large force arrived at the outskirts of Yutian County.

At this time, the commander of the Fifth Brigade encountered a problem. He wanted to recapture Yutian County, but he didn't know the strength and deployment of the Japanese troops in Yutian City.

At this time, the second battalion commander volunteered to fight:

"How many devils can there be in a small county? Let the main force continue to move forward. Our battalion will handle Yutian County."

"Okay, after recapture Yutian County, leave one company to garrison there, and the other troops will continue to chase the main force. If there is any emergency, telegram me immediately." After saying this, the Fifth Brigade Commander led the main force to continue marching towards Ji County.

After the main force left, the second battalion commander had a headache. He knew nothing about the situation of the Japanese and puppet troops in Yutian County, so how could he arrange the combat mission?

The second company commander volunteered to scout the situation of the Japanese in Yutian County. The second battalion commander refused. How many Japanese could there be in a small county? He decided to lure them out and slowly walk the dog.

He ordered the second company commander to arrange a squad of soldiers to shoot at the Japanese soldiers at the city gate with the weapons seized from the security team last night. Other soldiers were to lie in ambush on both sides of the city gate to block the way for the Japanese soldiers and pseudo-security forces who had left the city to return to the city.

The second company commander ordered the first squad to use the security team's miscellaneous weapons to start shooting at the Japanese and puppet security forces at the gate of Yutian County.

Two Japanese soldiers and four puppet security forces at the city gate were knocked down one after another by a group of soldiers.

After a while, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers and more than a dozen puppet security forces rushed out of the city gate and attacked the ambush site of the first squad.

The firepower of the first squad was not fierce, but it was accurate. The attacking Japanese and puppet security forces were constantly knocked down.

A Japanese sergeant was very annoyed that more than a dozen guerrillas dared to act wildly towards them. He immediately ordered the light machine gun to fire at the squad leader to suppress him.

The squad leader and his men were unable to raise their heads due to the dense barrage of bullets from the light machine gun. But not long after, the sound of an LR-4 sniper rifle came from somewhere, and the Japanese light machine gunner was knocked down. The soldiers of the first squad continued to shoot and kill the provocative Japanese.

The second battalion commander next to him took a look at the Japanese soldiers as they left the city. There were only more than ten Japanese soldiers, and he said disappointedly:

"Just like Fengrun County, there is only a small group of Japanese devils. How boring!" Then he lay on the grass to bask in the sun, no longer paying attention to the battle at the gate of Yutian City.

The Japanese soldiers charging outside Yutian City were unstoppable and were soon knocked down by the first squad of soldiers practicing shooting. The remaining Japanese soldiers and the puppet security forces hurried into the city to report the death.

An infantry squadron of the First Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Garrison in China was stationed in Yutian City. The squadron leader saw that more than 30 Japanese soldiers and the puppet An army were beaten to a pulp by more than a dozen Chinese soldiers, so he kicked the sergeant down in anger and cursed, "Coward."

The squadron leader immediately ordered his second squad to take a platoon of security forces out of the city to seek revenge on the Chinese army.

The Japanese squad leader immediately led his squad of soldiers and the puppet security forces to rush out of the city gate, fearing that if they arrived too late, the Chinese soldiers would escape.

What made the Japanese squad leader happy was that these more than a dozen Chinese soldiers did not run away, but stayed in their positions and shot at them.

The Japanese squad leader immediately ordered the two mortars their squad had brought to set up fire and bomb the squad leader's position.

When the squad leader saw that the Japanese were preparing to fire, he immediately fled to the hiding place of the first battalion in the rear as planned.

The second battalion commander was awakened by the sound of the Japanese artillery. He stood up and looked at the gate of Yutian County, and said happily:

"Hmm, this soup has some flavor."

The second battalion commander immediately ordered the third company commander to arrange people to eliminate this group of Japanese devils and puppet security forces.

At the cost of three lives, a group of soldiers successfully led the group of devils and puppet security forces into the ambush circle of the third company, and a burst of fierce gunfire rang out.

More than half an hour later, the group of devils were all wiped out. Except for 18 puppet security forces who lay on the ground and surrendered, the rest were also wiped out.

The second battalion commander calculated the time, nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Not bad, prepare to attack Yutian County."

The Japanese squadron leader in Yutian City judged from the intensive gunfire just now that the Chinese troops outside Yutian City were definitely more than a dozen people. He immediately ordered the city gates to be closed and no longer left the city to pursue the Chinese troops.

The second battalion commander ordered the second and third companies to surround Yutian City and prepare for an attack.

The Japanese squadron leader gasped when he saw the more than 500 Chinese troops outside the city. Those were not just a dozen Chinese soldiers.

Half an hour later, the Second Battalion launched an attack. Their battalion's mortars and the two mortars that had just been captured from the Japanese attacked the Yutian city wall fiercely.

Dozens of Japanese soldiers on the Yutian city wall were suppressed by the artillery fire of the Second Battalion and could not raise their heads, but they still stubbornly continued to shoot at the attacking soldiers of the Second Battalion.

Snipers from the Second Battalion outside Yutian City continued to eliminate the few remaining Japanese firepower on the Yutian city walls.

The Japanese squadron leader asked the captain for help while ordering the Japanese to hold on and wait for help, hoping to wait until the Japanese main force arrived.
