Devil's Army

Chapter 807: Gunfire breaks out again in Fengrun County

The captain of the first and third squadrons of the special forces team received Wu Lang's order and immediately took the special forces members to Ji County.

With the addition of special forces, the task of training new recruits for Dwarf Wolf has been greatly reduced. However, the Japanese army will not allow you to develop troops and consolidate your base with peace of mind.

The tanks requested by the commander of the Japanese Fifth Division had not arrived yet, so he ordered the commander of the 21st Brigade, Toshiji Miura, to take charge of capturing Fengrun County.

With the lessons learned from the 11th Regiment, the commander of the 21st Regiment, Awayahara Hide, ordered the st Infantry Company of his regiment's st Infantry Battalion to be responsible for the siege, the nd Infantry Company to be responsible for guarding, and the rd Infantry Company to be the reserve.

As soon as the troops were in position, the captain immediately ordered the artillery to launch a fierce bombardment on the Fengrun city wall.

At that time, a company of the Fifth Brigade defending the Fengrun city wall suffered heavy casualties in the previous battle, so the commander of the first battalion of the first regiment of the Second Brigade arranged another company to assist in the defense. The defense of the city was in the charge of Captain Wu of the Fifth Brigade.

Captain Wu heard the sentry's report and learned that the Japanese were approaching again. He knew that the Japanese artillery fire was powerful, so he immediately ordered the troops to retreat, leaving only an observation post on the city wall. He also reported to the commander-in-chief.

After receiving the report from Captain Wu, Wu Lang knew that the Japanese were well prepared this time and it was unlikely that they would be ambushed by surprise like they did last time.

Wu Lang calculated the military strength he currently had. His Second Brigade in Ji County had only one regiment of troops plus the Third Regiment of the Eleventh Brigade, and the Third Brigade which had just arrived and had not yet participated in the battle.

If he sent too few troops to relieve the siege of Fengrun County, it would be useless. If he sent one regiment, the battle would not end for a while. The Japanese army attacked Xiaoguanzhuang Airport and Jixian County at the same time, and his troops were stretched to the limit.

If Fengrun County fell, then Xiaoguanzhuang Airport would certainly not be able to be saved. Without aircraft support, his Jixian, Tongzhou and even Tangxiacun logistics bases were within the bombing range of the Japanese bombers, making it even more difficult to defend.

Finally, Wu Lang decided to send a regiment commander to lead an understaffed regiment to reinforce, and ordered the first army aircraft at Xiaoguanzhuang Airport to provide support.

What made him happy was that Instructor Yin of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport told him: Through the efforts of the ground crew, a total of seven Japanese Type 95 fighters and eight Type 98 dive bombers were repaired and made usable at the Xiaoguanzhuang Airport occupied by the Japanese army this time.

Since the focus of defense is still Xiaoguanzhuang Airport, this is related to whether their air force can gain a foothold in the North China sky.

Instructor Yin ordered Ren Shiqiong, the acting squadron leader of the 1st Aviation Squadron, to lead two Huaxia II fighter planes to escort five Japanese Type 98 dive bombers and fly towards Fengrun City.

Although the Japanese captain saw two pointed-nosed planes, he saw more of their bombers, so he did not order the artillery to stop bombing, but moved and hid immediately.

Five Japanese Type 98 dive bombers flew over the artillery positions of the Japanese 1st Battalion and the charging infantry and began dropping bombs.

As one Japanese artillery piece after another was destroyed by bombers, the pressure on the Fengrun defenders was greatly reduced.

Only then did the captain of the first platoon realize that these planes were not theirs, but were captured by the devil's troops.

The captain of the Japanese battalion was quite confident in the combat effectiveness of his soldiers, and their battalion was equipped with quite a few grenade launchers.

As soon as the Chinese army's planes returned, the captain of a battalion immediately integrated the troops and launched an attack on Fengrun City.

One grenade launcher shell after another landed accurately on the machine gun firing points of the defenders on the Fengrun city wall.

One by one, the machine gunners of the Fengrun City defenders were shot and killed. But as soon as the machine guns stopped firing, the soldiers next to them immediately took over the machine guns and continued to fire at the devils.

The Japanese battalion commander had already judged from the gunfire of the Chinese defenders on the Fengrun city wall that there were not many Chinese defenders in Fengrun City. He personally supervised the battle and ordered the soldiers to intensify the attack.

The Japanese army once attacked the city of Fengrun, but was repelled by the dense grenade fire from the Chinese defenders.

The Japanese squadron leader ordered the machine gunners to supervise the battle from behind, and anyone who dared to retreat would be killed without mercy.

The Japanese soldiers had to turn around and continue attacking Fengrun City.

The Japanese army launched a desperate attack and finally reached the city of Fengrun.

A Japanese soldier blew open the Fengrun city gate and the Japanese army began to rush into Fengrun city.

The company commander of the 5th Brigade led his soldiers to retreat into the city, but they still put up a stubborn resistance.

At this time, Ren Qiongyuan led the bombers to Fengrun City again.

Bombs fell on the Japanese outside Fengrun City, blowing them up and sending them flying everywhere. The Japanese attack was forced to stop.

Captain Wu, who was blocking the Japanese in the city, took the opportunity to lead his soldiers to launch a counterattack against the Japanese.

Except for those Japanese soldiers who rushed into the city and were killed, the rest were driven out of Fengrun City.

The soldiers who rushed to the city gate quickly blocked the city gate with sandbags, and set up a machine gun on the sandbags and fired at the devils desperately.

The First Army's planes finally stopped bombing and began to return. But this time, before the captain of the First Army could regroup his troops to attack Fengrun City, fierce gunfire rang out around him.

It turned out that the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Brigade had arrived. In order to end the battle as soon as possible, the commander of the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Brigade did not leave any reserve troops. As soon as they arrived at the battlefield, the soldiers of the entire regiment pressed forward and launched a fierce attack on the 1st Battalion of the Japanese Army.
