The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 504 We Guarded a Hen That Laid Golden Eggs (Second Change)

The second lieutenant who climbed up to the top of the gun tower quickly turned around and returned to the stairs, almost collided with the squadron leader, and said in horror: "Sir, the eighth road is equipped with infantry artillery, and we are locked by an infantry artillery. Three shells will collapse, and the troops must evacuate the tower immediately!"

"Hurry up and retreat!" The squadron leader also realized his dangerous situation, nodded and ran downstairs without saying a word.

The shell that hit the gun tower just now hit the second floor. When the squadron leader ran here, the entire gun tower was filled with gunpowder smoke, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the wails of soldiers continued to reach his ears.

The squadron leader was too busy to take care of himself, turned around and ran to the first floor without turning his head.

"boom……"

The second shell just hit the outer wall of the third floor of the gun tower, and the air waves and gunpowder smoke rushed from the stairs to the second floor, scaring the squadron leader unconsciously to speed up his running.

After rushing out of the gun tower in one breath, he stopped, and then began to gasp for breath.

"boom……"

The third shell exploded immediately behind him, and the turret became precarious and might collapse at any time.

The squadron was terrified after seeing it, and ordered with lingering fear: "Get into the position immediately. Without the gun tower, we still have a bunker, and without the bunker, we still have a ground position. We must hold the stronghold..."

"The telephone soldier immediately connected the telephone line and contacted the headquarters...I want to talk to the captain personally..."

"Our opponent didn't recover from the last big raid... Not only is the morale high, but it is also equipped with infantry artillery..."

"The stronghold at the entrance of the cave was attacked, the troops suffered heavy casualties, and reinforcements are urgently needed..."

After speaking, he ran towards the position not far away, and the crumbling gun tower also collapsed at this moment, turning into a pile of ruins...

"Boom boom boom..."

Five mortar shells whizzed towards them, and suddenly hit the open space in front of the gun tower and the outer positions...

When the stronghold was attacked, the main force of the Japanese puppet army was still sleeping in the barracks.

After the infantry artillery fired three rounds of shells, all the Japanese and puppet troops rushed out of the barracks and rushed to their positions.

At least one hundred Japanese and puppet troops gathered in this open space under mortar attack...

Five balls of fire rose into the air among the crowd, and at least twenty Japanese and puppet troops were blown up...

The ensuing battle was exactly the same as the Pingyang stronghold... The only difference was that Huang Yu had already cut off the only telephone line in the same county town of the stronghold before launching the attack.

As a result, the Dongkou stronghold was completely conquered without contacting the county seat.

"Leave the platoon with the most casualties in the second company...all the lightly and seriously wounded will stay, and the other troops will be assembled within 5 minutes, and take heavy weapons and go to the next stronghold!"

"As long as the little devils in the county don't call for air support, we're in no danger!"

"Let comrades persevere a little longer... take the third stronghold, and I promise everyone to eat well, drink well, and rest well!"

Zhang Xuan, the commander of the spy company, is from the independent regiment, and Kong Jie was the deputy battalion commander and company commander of the main battalion before he was transferred.After Kong Jie was transferred, Huang Yu was demoted from battalion commander to company commander, and Zhang Xuan was demoted to platoon leader.

After Kong Jie became the head of the Second Independent Regiment, although he was promoted to the commander of the secret service company, he was far from being reinstated.

The Duer Regiment is different from other main forces in that it is drawn down from a main brigade.

There are more than a dozen company commanders in the regiment, almost all of whom have served as battalion commanders, and some have even served as deputy regimental commanders.

If you want to stand out in such a talented team, you must work harder than others.

Li Zhuang's ambush, the secret agent company has become a blockbuster without a fight, allowing everyone in the Duer Regiment to see the strong combat effectiveness of the spy company and their own command ability, but this is not enough.

It is a pity that the battalion commander did not give the spy company the opportunity to continue participating in the war.

Zhang Xuan understood this determination very well. The spy company had won the first job, and he always wanted to give others some soup.

If all the battles were participated in, with the combat effectiveness of the special agent company, there would definitely be no other troops. In the end, the military exploits would be taken away by the special agent company, and others would definitely say that the battalion commander was biased.

Although he was left in Lizhuang to clean up the battlefield, in the eyes of others, the battle belonging to the secret service company was over, but Zhang Xuan didn't see it that way.

In the independent regiment before, the battalion commander received many tasks to clean up the battlefield.

But he will change from passive to active, insisting on finding fighter opportunities when cleaning the battlefield, seizing the opportunities, and earning some military exploits that others can't see.

In Zhang Xuan's view, Li Zhuang, where the spy company is located, has such an opportunity.

The battalion commander captured the Pingyang stronghold, and the reinforcements sent by Shunping County were also wiped out. If the little devils in the city would not become blind and deaf, they would definitely send people out of the city to understand the situation.

If I set up a net here to wait, not only can I kill the little devils and troops out of the city, but also make the Japanese and puppet troops in the city blind for a while.

In his memory, if the Japanese and puppet troops in the city wanted to know the news outside the city quickly, they would definitely let the messengers ride forward.

You can capture a war horse by killing an orderly by yourself.

Compared with Northwest Shanxi, the role of cavalry in the Yizhong Plain is several times greater, and the value of war horses is also greater than in Northwest Shanxi.

There is no shortage of food in the Yizhong Plain, and the troops have the conditions to form a large-scale cavalry unit.

If the Special Second Regiment can build a cavalry battalion, even an infantry brigade will not be defeated when encountering devils on the plain!
The spy company seized more than a dozen war horses here, plus what the Duer Regiment already had, the head of the regiment could immediately build a cavalry platoon.

As soon as the main force of the battalion withdrew, he picked three reinforcement squads with the strongest combat effectiveness and ambushed them separately on the only way to Lizhuang from the county town...

The distance between them is 500 meters. If the Japanese and puppet troops only send out a wave of messengers, the front ambush soldiers will not move, and they will rush to the third wave of ambush soldiers before taking action...

If the Japanese and puppet troops sent three waves of messengers, none of the three waves of messengers could escape...

"Da da da……"

At 04:30 in the morning, a series of machine gun fires suddenly reached Zhang Xuan's ears...

Less than ten seconds later, another burst of gunshots came from the ambush position...

Ten minutes later, the six horses were brought back to Lizhuang by their subordinates...

At the Japanese Garrison Headquarters in Shunping County, Shao Zuo Harada waited from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] and did not see a single messenger sent back to the county.

The bad premonition in my mind became stronger and stronger.

I especially want to lead the troops to visit the Pingyang stronghold in person.

But just think about it, subtracting the reinforcements I sent out, there is only one infantry squadron, one mortar squadron, one heavy machine gun squadron, one transport team, and one gendarmerie left in the county town, totaling less than 400 people !
With such a small force, it is very difficult to even defend Shunping County. If there is an accident after leaving the city, Shunping County will be lost.

But he couldn't stay in the county town all the time to be blind and deaf, so Harada Shaozuo decided to send a few more messengers out of the city to have a look...

Go to the Pingyang stronghold from different directions to investigate, and there will always be someone who can return safely.

　The second one was delivered today!Ask for full order!
