Bright Sword: We Li Yunlong are fighting elites

Chapter 191 No choice!

On the devil's position, a devil major brandished his saber and shouted sharply: "Warriors of the empire, the opportunity to make contributions to His Majesty the Emperor has come, please charge with me!"

"Kill it~!"

Following the order of the devil Shao Zuo, a large number of little devils rushed towards the Eighth Route's position screaming like crazy.

Hirata Kenkichi has also issued a death order at this moment, asking the little devil to break through the North Ridge defense line as soon as possible at all costs, and then capture Ping'an County.

The little devil was forced to have no choice but to launch an attack with all his strength.

At this moment, the soldiers of the [-]nd Regiment came out of the artillery hole one after another.

A commander shouted: "Brothers, recover your position and prepare for battle."

A series of black muzzles protruded from the ground, aiming at the little devil who was approaching.

The commander ordered loudly: "Put the little devil closer before hitting."

The attack speed of the little devils is also very fast. While rushing forward, these little devils kept shooting, trying to lure the eight roads to shoot back.

And the soldiers were not fooled by this at all, they all honestly hid in the trenches, just secretly observing the little devil.

Soon the little devil was within the best range, and at this moment the commander of the Eighth Route shouted: "Fire! Stop them."

"Da da da~!"

Intensive gunshots continued to ring out, and a rain of fiery bullets quickly flew towards the little devil.

"Puff puff~!"

The bullet hit the devil's body, making muffled noises, and clouds of blood sprayed up.

I saw those little devils rushing forward, fell down in an instant.

The soldiers of the [-]nd Regiment were extraordinarily generous this time, aiming at the little devil and shooting fiercely continuously, the bullets were like raindrops, and they kept sweeping towards the little devil.

The attacking devils suffered heavy losses, and the little devils behind were frightened one by one, fell to the ground one after another, and raised their guns to shoot.

The battle fell into a stalemate for a while, and the little devil tried to charge several times, but was repelled by the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army.

The battle fell into a stalemate for a while, Hirata Kenkichi cursed angrily: "Baga Yalu, you idiots, don't you all eat dry food?"

A devil officer said helplessly: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, please calm down. The enemy army occupies a favorable terrain. The imperial army's feint attack is very unfavorable."

"On the other hand, the enemy's firepower is also very fierce, and the imperial army can't charge up at all."

"What's more, it's night after all, and the sky is too dark, which is extremely unfavorable for the imperial army."

Hirata Kenkichi said angrily: "Baga! I don't want to hear these excuses."

"I only want one result now, and that is to win the safe city as soon as possible."

The scene immediately fell into silence.

After Hirata Kenkichi scolded, the anger in his heart gradually dissipated, and this old devil actually understood it in his heart.

With the current situation, it is impossible to quickly capture North Ridge.

He was just angry just now, but now that he calmed down, he began to think of a solution.

Hirata Kenkichi asked: "Can you spare Beiling and directly attack Ping'an County?"

A devil officer quickly explained: "Your Excellency, division chief, I'm afraid this cannot be avoided."

Hirata Kenkichi glanced at the map and couldn't help but sigh.

It's not impossible to make a detour, but the detour is too far and the road conditions are unknown, so it is basically not feasible.

Hirata Kenkichi was also impatient at the moment, seeing that Ping'an County was close at hand, but they couldn't break into Ping'an County, no wonder the old devil was happy.

At this time, a devil officer said: "Your Excellency, division commander, it is better to stop the attack temporarily, and wait until tomorrow morning before making plans!"

Hirata Kenkichi said angrily: "No! What do you know? We must not give the enemy more time to prepare."

"Now they must be continuing to increase troops to Ping'an County, or another situation."

A devil officer asked curiously: "What is the other situation that the division chief is referring to?"

Hirata Kenkichi looked in the direction of Ping'an City and said, "Another situation is that they may be preparing to evacuate Ping'an County now."

"Stopping us is just buying time for their retreat."

"No matter what the situation is, we should fight now to capture Ping'an County as soon as possible."

"If the time is delayed, either give them enough time to prepare, or they will get an empty city like last time."

"Although the night battle is not good for the imperial army, we have no choice now."

At this time, a devil officer ran in and said respectfully: "Report to your Excellency, the commander of the division, the artillery regiment is ready for battle."

"Yangxi!"

Hirata Kenkichi glanced at the direction of Beiling. The battle was still going on at the moment, but the little devil couldn't charge up at all.

Kenkichi Hirata gritted his teeth and said, "Order the troops to retreat! Order the artillery wing to concentrate all firepower on the enemy's positions."

"The infantry wing concentrates its forces and launches attacks in turn. It is necessary to break through the enemy's defense line as soon as possible."

"Hay!"

The devil officers present responded in unison.

Hirata Kenkichi asked: "How is the situation with Fujioka Takeo and the others?"

A devil officer replied: "Reporting to your Excellency, the commander of the division, the Fujioka brigade is making slow progress. They are afraid of being ambushed by the enemy and dare not move forward at all."

"Now that it's night, they don't dare to travel overnight, they have already camped in place, and there are still about [-] miles of mountain roads from Ping'an County."

"Bagaya Deer!"

Hirata Kenkichi couldn't help cursing, and said: "I should have guessed that Fujioka is not reliable at all. It seems that we can only rely on ourselves now."

Before, the little devil just used mortars to bomb.

And now the devil's artillery wing is ready to provide artillery support for the infantry.

The devil's artillery unit is equipped with mountain artillery and field artillery, and the power of these artillery is much stronger than that of mortars.

Following Hirata Kenkichi's order, the little devil's attacking troops quickly retreated.

At this time, rumbling guns began to sound from the position of the devil's artillery regiment.

Then the shells, like hail, fell one after another on the Eighth Route's position.

Amidst the violent explosion, the position was quickly plunged into artillery fire again.

Seeing that the devils launched another shelling attack, the soldiers quickly hid in the nearest artillery hole one by one.

At the north gate of Ping'an City, Li Yunlong stood on the gate tower, looking at Beiling, which was caught in artillery fire in the distance.

Zhao Gang next to him frowned and said, "The devil's firepower is still very fierce!"

Li Yunlong said: "For an artillery regiment, the firepower will naturally not be too bad."

"This is only the 37th Division. If it is the Devil's Type A Division, or even the Standing Division, the firepower will be even stronger."

Zhao Gang nodded slightly, and then asked, "I don't know if they can resist it?"

"Don't worry!"

Li Yunlong said: "The [-]th Regiment still has some strength, and Cheng Xiazi is also a bit capable, so it's no problem to hold Beiling."

"What's more, our two battalions are just below the North Ridge. If they are in an emergency, our troops can quickly go to support them, so there is no need to worry."

"It's just that I didn't expect that the little devil would launch an attack overnight."

Zhao Gang said: "It seems that the little devil is really in a hurry this time."

Li Yunlong smiled slightly and said: "This is a good thing! The more anxious you little devil, the better!"

Zhao Gang thought for a while and said, "Then what do we need to do now?"

Li Yunlong said solemnly: "Relax with peace of mind and cultivate enough energy to kill devils."

"Is the real war still to come?"

Zhao Gang couldn't help laughing, and said: "This is also reasonable, so let's go to bed?"

"Hehe~!"

Li Yunlong chuckled and said, "It's time to eat and sleep!"

"With enough energy, it's our turn to make a move tomorrow."
