Baozhou City.

The sky is dotted with stars and the city is ablaze with fire.

The air was filled with smoke and the sound of gunfire rose and fell. There was a fierce exchange of fire in the northeast, but in the alley, the exchange of fire never stopped.

Sun Ming bent his body and ran quickly to Chu Yunfei's side.

Looking at Chu Yunfei who was holding the crooked handle and firing one shot after another, he quickly said:

"The regimental commander and the brigade commander have ordered our first and third battalions to cooperate with the second regiment to advance to the east of the city, and the second battalion will clear out the remaining Japanese devils in the streets here." Sun Ming said quickly.

"Second Battalion, come with me." Chu Yunfei did not hesitate at all after hearing this.

The brigade commander is now at the forefront. Since entering the city, the entire regiment has been advancing based on orders given by Lin Tianchen.

When Chu Yunfei led his troops forward several times, Lin Tianchen gave the order to stop advancing, just in time to avoid the Japanese ambush.

With just this observation ability, Chu Yunfei felt that looking behind him was like looking into an abyss. The battle before him did not look like a street fight at all. Which street fight could easily defeat the enemy, and which street fight could clear out the enemy so quickly.

"Captain, there's a wave of Japanese soldiers in the street on the right. If we want to get past them, we have to go back and circle. If we go straight ahead, we have to go around several Japanese positions."

Just as Chu Yunfei was leading his team to push forward, Zhou Changyi bent his body and ran over from the corner of the wall in front.

"Push forward from the front." Chu Yunfei said without hesitation, his eyes cold.

But before he could finish his words, a gate suddenly opened nearby.

"Soldiers, you can go to the back street by going through the front door in the yard." The old man's voice was very low, and he even looked around involuntarily, his eyes full of vigilance.

Today in Baozhou City, the sound of gunfire seems unusually loud.

Chu Yunfei was stunned for a moment, looked at the open gate, and immediately waved his hand. He had fought in many battles, big and small, in the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and had seen all kinds of people.

Some profited from the war, some collaborated with the army, and some sent people off...

But he had never seen such a scene before. War was war, and he was a soldier fighting for his country. However, the excitement revealed in the cloudy eyes of the old man in front of him touched Chu Yunfei's heart.

"The second battalion will follow me. The rest of you will provide suppressive fire and coordinate the attack."

There was no time for Chu Yunfei to hesitate on the battlefield, and he quickly led his men inside.

As he stepped into the yard, he subconsciously looked around. It was an empty flat ground. Chu Yunfei took a quick look and found that not only was the yard empty, but even in the house, there was nothing except an old table.

Even stickers have turned yellow and are very old.

Chu Yunfei didn't look closely, but just walked quickly with the light machine gun in his hand, waiting for the moment when he appeared from the other side of the house.

The shells instantly landed on the Japanese position in front of his street.

"rush!"

Chu Yunfei has long been accustomed to such accurate artillery shells.

As the voice fell, one soldier after another rushed towards the place where the explosion had just occurred, braving the residual heat. The flames were still burning under their feet, and figures emerged from the smoke.

The gunfire and flames blended together, forming a tongue of fire.

Some of the Japanese soldiers who were blown away had not yet recovered when they were greeted by bullets.

Because of the sudden appearance from the flank, the Japanese on the entire street had no time to react, and the main position on the street was quickly controlled.

But before Chu Yunfei could be happy, Sun Ming appeared next to him.

"Commander, the Third and First Regiments have begun to gather from the east and west of the city, heading to the 055 area warehouse to restock ammunition and rations. Other individuals appear to be on their way."

After Sun Ming finished speaking, Chu Yunfei was obviously stunned.

"Are they finished?" Although Chu Yunfei knew that the numerical advantage might not be able to be brought into play in the street fighting, the first and second regiments ended too quickly.

The main force of the Third Regiment did not enter the city, but fought fiercely in the northeast direction. The fleeing Japanese were being surrounded and suppressed from the front and back by the Third and Second Regiments.

Chu Yunfei was in a dilapidated high-rise building, looking into the distance with a telescope.

It was seen that in the east and west directions of the city, the flashes of gunfire had obviously become less and less, and the soldiers had already begun to clean up.

"Commander, the Second Regiment's original advancing speed was comparable to ours, but after the Japanese were defeated by them, their advancing speed was too fast, and we couldn't catch up to them..." Sun Ming's expression was complicated, and finally turned into a sigh.

Originally, watching the First Regiment's advance and feeling the huge gap, I had a bad feeling in my heart, but seeing that the Second Regiment's positional warfare was better than theirs, I could still see the shadow of the Second Regiment to some extent.

But everything seemed to have changed after the Japanese began to retreat.

Everyone charged forward very quickly, as if they had been injected with chicken blood. At the same time, the coordination of the extended artillery fire also made him sigh. It was obvious that the artillery support also understood the combat style of the Second Regiment.

After the Japanese were defeated, they avoided the charging Second Regiment and extended their artillery fire to a longer distance.

There were tens of thousands of people fighting in front of him. Not only was the artillery support extremely accurate, but also the deployment of troops in the entire regiment and the battles in the streets. He had truly seen what an invincible commander should be like.

"Hurry to area 055." Chu Yunfei raised the light machine gun in his hand. In the first large-scale battle in which the Huben Brigade participated, he truly felt why the Huben Brigade was able to overturn the situation in the Jin-Cha-Yi region.

In terms of command ability, he is not even on the same level.

at the same time.

At the temporary front-line command center, Lin Tianchen looked at the red dots on the visual map that were quickly cleared and faded away. The radius of the visual map extended to thirty kilometers.

Lin Tianchen felt that the visual map was like a scanning radar. It could not only adjust the direction, but also change the orientation at any time to zoom in.

In fact, after the intensity of the battle decreased, energy was liberated and they had a very good understanding of the surrounding environment and regional characteristics.

The Japanese reinforcements did not arrive, but the Japanese in some outlying strongholds did not join the battle immediately after they arrived, but began to block some roads and mountainous areas.

Baozhou is an important hub that connects nine provinces in the south and three passes in the north. The Japanese will never give it up like this.

Faced with the Japanese's obvious layout, Lin Tianchen frowned, but did not stop the attack on Baozhou.

The battle has reached this point. If we retreat now, we won't be able to maximize the results.

But as time went by, the gunfire in Baozhou City became less and less, while the gunfire in the northeast was very intense. However, the Second Regiment was at the rear, and the Third Regiment was on the front line resisting the Japanese who wanted to break through. Lin Tiansheng just observed and arranged the pillars to provide artillery support.

The roar of heavy artillery can never be compared to that of mortars.

Although heavy artillery is inconvenient to transport, Lin Tianchen considered it over and over again and decided to bring two heavy artillery pieces.

For him, the expansion of the visual map and the support of mortars on the battlefield are far less timely than heavy artillery. After all, the number of teams is increasing and the scope of battle is getting wider and wider.

The range of the heavy artillery allows him to take into account the offensive lines of various troops.

Only faint gunshots could be heard from Baozhou City. Although there were still gunshots from the northeast, Lin Tianchen did not hesitate.

"The community will carry supplies and evacuate the battlefield. The first regiment will arrange for one battalion to go north for support. The other battalions will evacuate Baozhou City as quickly as possible."

"Fang Bailu, give the order to assemble."

The sound of gunfire in the city gradually faded away, and Lin Tianchen knew that the purpose of this battle had been achieved.

Soon after the order was given, groups of soldiers began to gather.

The things moved out of the Japanese warehouse were quickly replenished.

Wang Jiantang skillfully pulled out some of the cannons or heavy firepower that could not be taken away, as well as the excess ammunition, to the open area outside the city.

The soldiers received some rations and ammunition, but not much other supplies. As for firearms and other things, the Tiger Brigade has always been well-equipped.

After quickly adjusting the deployment of the troops, the team left Baozhou very quickly, but when leaving, they also asked some residents to leave Baozhou as soon as possible to avoid suffering unnecessary anger.

The direction they were heading towards was naturally the direction the Tiger Guards came from, Niangzi Pass.

Liu Shenghong looked at the battlefield in front of him with his crutch, which was littered with the corpses of Japanese soldiers. His eyes became inexplicably excited.

"The Tiger Brigade...really launched a northern expedition..."

Liu Shenghong murmured to himself, he had been waiting for this moment for too long. Not only had he been waiting for too long, but this whole land had been waiting for too long.

He was different from others, as he had more sources of information than others. Ever since he got the news that the Tiger Guards were going to march north, he had been tossing and turning for many sleepless days and nights.

He had dreamed that there was a team of theirs that would suddenly descend from the sky in Baozhou City.

But at that moment, when he saw the Japanese soldiers fall down and die, he understood what the Northern Expedition was.

Liu Shenghong held the crutch tightly in his hand, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red.

"Those damn traitors..." Liu Shenghong looked down at the leg on the side of his crutch.
