"Go inform your friends at the newspaper and tell them that the 72nd Division attacked Aohan just to expose their lies at the spot where Masao Tanimoto took the photo."

Li Shaoyi's eyes rolled and he immediately gave orders to Wang Manli. This girl had a good relationship with people in the news industry.

"Master, why are you doing this?"

Zhang Haiguang said with some confusion, now the outer positions have been taken, and we have reached the outskirts of the city.

"If I don't say this, how can Tanimoto Masao send troops to support us? They must have their own battle plan. Regardless of whether their plan is good or bad, after my words are released, he will definitely be concerned about his own face, so the Japanese army may not respect the original battle plan. New plans, without long-term verification, will have loopholes. Isn't this our opportunity?"

Li Shaoyi snorted coldly, and his subordinates also gave him a thumbs up. Our division commander may not be the best in command, but when it comes to calculating people's hearts, he is definitely the best.

Masao Tanimoto is a veteran in the Japanese army, otherwise he would not have been able to become the commander of the 1st Division. This is even more honorable than some people with higher positions, after all, this is the 1st Division.

But if everyone knew that the commander of the 1st Division lied blatantly in front of reporters, and if this news leaked out, it would be more disgusting than losing four divisions.

In order to prevent Li Shaoyi from occupying Aohan, the Japanese troops in Rehe Province, including Fengtian, would definitely rush over like crazy to rescue Aohan.

Surrounding a point and attacking reinforcements is a very good idea, at least it is much better than our street fighting.

"So, shall we still attack the city?"

Zhang Haiguang said hesitantly that taking over Aohan was the real achievement of their Second Security Brigade, but from what Li Shaoyi said now, it seemed that he wanted to use this place as bait.

"Fight, of course we have to, but we have to decide how to fight. Organize a night raid with our brothers tonight. When we're one-third of the way there, pretend to retreat..."

Li Shaoyi drew a line on the map of Aohan city. This was the deepest point they could fight that night. When they reached here, they immediately showed signs of exhaustion and began to retreat slowly.

This also gave Inoue Fuxiong the illusion that the people of the 72nd Division were not good at street fighting, or that the casualties in street fighting were too heavy, so they did not fight this.

Originally, there was a limit to the rescue efforts of various troops. If Aohan could not be defended, there would be no point in coming to rescue.

But if Aohan can hold on and fight back and forth with the 72nd Division in the urban street fighting, then the speed of reinforcement of Aohan by various troops must be accelerated. If they arrive too late, they may be eaten up. Only if they arrive early can they replenish the local forces and continue to fight against the 72nd Division.

"Isn't it just acting? I'll personally lead the people to perform tonight, and I'm sure the devil will believe it."

Zhang Haiguang patted his chest and led his men to prepare to attack the city.

"When we attack the city later, each infantry squad will be divided into two units. Only two semi-automatic rifles will be kept. The rest will use pistols and submachine guns."

Before the attack, all troops received new orders. Although the Garand semi-automatic rifle was not bad, it was not suitable for urban street fighting. It would be better to take off the pistol holsters and use it in conjunction with the Mauser pistol.

With the holster, the various shortcomings of this pistol are also reduced. The first is that it is more stable in the hand. The gun used to jump a lot when it was fired, but now with the buttstock, the gun jumping is greatly reduced.

Moreover, the shooting speed can be very fast. With the assistance of the submachine gun next to it, if we encounter some emergencies in the city, we can also quickly carry out sweeping fire and gain the advantage.

At ten o'clock that evening, it was completely dark, and Zhang Haiguang led more than 3,000 brothers from the security corps to start street fighting.

Although the Japanese army had made arrangements, the problem was that the firepower was too weak and there was no way to contain the people of the 72nd Division.

Take Zhang Mingjun's infantry squad for example. They lost one person during the daytime attack, but they were quickly replenished. After all, their infantry squad has strong combat effectiveness, and replenishing it immediately after the loss is also to maintain their combat effectiveness.

They also participated in the front-line attack that night. Zhang Mingjun had an MP40 submachine gun hanging around his neck, and the deputy squad leader had a Garand semi-automatic rifle equipped with a scope in his hand.

One of his soldiers was also holding a Czech light machine gun.

The other soldiers all used Mauser pistols. Half of them put on holsters, and the other half held them in their own hands. Some even held two pistols.

They had advanced more than 600 meters from the western suburbs and encountered several resistances along the way, but none of them were that fierce.

Zhang Haiguang asked his men to put away all the luminous objects on their bodies and slowly move forward with his men.

When he saw a crossroads, Zhang Mingjun clenched his fists, and two soldiers immediately appeared behind him, each scouting the left and right sides.

"There are devils."

There was no sound coming from the right. When the soldier on the left saw the Japanese, he pulled the trigger immediately. Seven bullets from the Mauser pistol were fired, knocking down a Japanese.

In the alley on the right, several sacks were piled up to form a simple position.

There is a Japanese Type 99 rifle here, with a total of four people. Unfortunately, the scout who came to investigate just now killed one of them.

The remaining people nervously opened fire, and the alley was soon filled with bullets.

"Grenade."

Zhang Mingjun saw very clearly that people could not rush forward at this time, because if they did, their condition would change immediately.

Two soldiers unscrewed the cap of the grenade and stood by.

When the machine gun inside was changing bullets, the other two Japanese soldiers took turns firing with their Type 38 rifles to cover the machine gunner inside.

Unfortunately, you are destined not to get through today. When the machine gun stopped, Zhang Mingjun waved his hand and the two brothers immediately threw out grenades. The grenades hit the house on the north side, changed their trajectory, and were thrown in a curve. The grenade exploded in the air above the Japanese.

Two of the three Japanese soldiers died instantly, and the third one was lying on the ground groaning.

Zhang Mingyuan then commanded his brothers to continue moving forward. When passing through the alley, he fired another round of shots at the Japanese corpses in the distance. More than a dozen bullets killed the living and made the dead even more deadly.
