The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

The combat staff responded quickly, and immediately marked the specific location of the offensive position on the sand table.

It was clear at a glance that Major General Kawasaki's already tightly furrowed brows furrowed deeper at this time.

Seeing this scene, Lieutenant Assistant Cunshang was a little afraid to continue reporting.

I'm afraid that the following content will completely anger the brigade leader, make him lose his mind, and finally get burned.

After a pause for a while, he mustered up the courage to answer: "They also reported..."

"Since it was dark, the Eighth Route Army's offensive position suddenly became very quiet."

"Soldiers stood in line as if they were planning a massive attack."

"The city defense force is to prevent the city from being raided."

"All enter the position, ready to repel the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army at any time, and defend the top of the city."

"No..." Major General Kawasaki suddenly heard something was wrong, and immediately refuted.

"There are more than 1 troops stationed in the city, and the total strength of the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong is not as many as ours. Even if they build an offensive position, it is impossible to launch a general offensive immediately and enter Baoding through an offensive."

"Tonight, at most, they will consume our army's strength through feint attacks."

After speaking, the tricks Li Yunlong used to raid the North Gate last time came to mind.

Although he didn't personally experience that battle, his subordinates' summary of the battle was very detailed. After watching it, the whole battle process appeared in front of his eyes like a movie.

in that battle.

The Eighth Route Army first launched a surprise attack on the head of the city with flying thunder cannons, and used the powerful power of the explosive package to kill and wound the garrison at the head of the city in large numbers.

Before the reinforcements arrived at the top of the city, and there were not enough troops in the top of the city, they immediately sent infantry to seize the top of the city and marched into Baoding.

The Yizhong Eighth Route Army in front of us does not yet have the strength to enter Baoding, but they can consume the strength of the garrison at the top of the city and reduce the pressure of the general attack.

His face suddenly turned pale, and he ordered anxiously: "Baga, we have been fooled."

"Contact the city defense force immediately."

"Leave [-]% of the troops to defend the city, and all other troops will withdraw to the city and stand by, ready to reinforce the city at any time."

"Now the Eighth Route Army will only pretend to attack the top of the city and consume our troops, and will never attack the top of the city by force."

"The more troops we gather at the head of the city, the greater the loss in a short while."

"Go and give the order, or it will be too late."

"Rumble..."

A burst of shaking explosions suddenly reached the headquarters, and Major General Kawasaki was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground.

A look of despair quickly flashed across his pale face,
He cried out, "It's the Feilei Cannon."

"The Eighth Route Army is attacking the top of the city with flying thunder cannons, consuming the strength of the city defense troops. We have been fooled."

"Rumble..."

The explosion sound transmitted to the headquarters suddenly became denser.

In the beginning, only the east of the city was attacked, and within five seconds, the remaining three Chengcheng gates in Baoding were also attacked.

Cunshang Zhongzuo was in a hurry, rushed to the telephone, grabbed the receiver and called the garrison in the east of the city, shaking the phone while pointing to the three telephone soldiers to give orders.

"You call the garrison west of the city..."

"You call the garrison in the south of the city, and you are responsible for contacting the garrison in the north of the city."

"Let them retreat immediately, leaving only [-]% of the troops to defend the city."

"The other troops are all pushed into the city, and they will reinforce the city at any time."

"Hurry up, or they will be blown up by the flying thunder cannon any later."

After speaking, the captain of the Chengdong Garrison reported from the microphone: "Reporting sir, Chengdong was attacked by more than 50 flying thunder cannons from the Eighth Route Army, and the troops suffered heavy losses. We request reinforcements..."

As soon as Cunshang Zhongzuo heard it, he knew it was too late to give the order.

But still with the last sliver of hope, he asked: "How many casualties in the army, and how many people are left?"

"At least 300 casualties..."

The report of the captain of the Chengdong Garrison quickly sounded from the microphone.

"Immediately leave 400 people to continue to defend the city, and all the others retreat to the city, hurry up." Cunshang Zhongzuo hurriedly ordered.

After hanging up the phone, he walked quickly to Major General Kawasaki.

"General, the garrison in the east of the city has been attacked by at least fifty flying thunder cannons from the Eighth Route Army."

"Troop casualties exceed 300."

"The humble office has issued an order to retreat."

"If the Eighth Route Army continues to use Feilei artillery to attack the city, the casualties of the garrison will definitely plummet."

Major General Kawasaki's face was very ugly, and he ordered under pressure: "Our reaction speed is still too slow."

"Order……"

"The mortar squadrons under the various city defense forces immediately launched a counterattack. We must find the Eighth Route Army's Feilei Cannon position and blow it up."

"The garrison in the east of the city suffered more than 300 casualties, and the losses of other city defense troops must not be small."

"The Eighth Route Army in Yizhong killed more than 1000 of us."

"It can be seen how inevitable they are to attack Baoding."

"We must be cautious in the next defense battle."

"We must not give the Eighth Route Army any chance."

"We must persist for the longest time with the least casualties."

…………

"Rumble..."

On the battlefield in the east of the city, the second round of more than 50 explosive packages quickly flew to the top of the city.

The aim was not as high as the first round of shooting, and only eleven explosive packages hit the top of the city.

Li Yunlong frowned immediately, and waved his hand to order: "Stop firing the Feilei Cannon, the situation on the top of the city is not right."

"Old Li, why don't you fight anymore?" Kong Jie asked from a long distance away.

"It seems that there are fewer Japanese and puppet troops on the top of the city." Li Yunlong frowned and replied.

"After the first round of explosives hit the ground, each explosive can blow up five or six little devils."

"The explosive package that landed just now only blown up one or two Japanese and puppet troops. Even if the Japanese and puppet troops in the city were killed and injured more than 300 people by the first round of shelling, the effect of killing the enemy would not be so bad."

Kong Jie understood as soon as he heard it: "The little devil has probably retreated."

"It can be seen that we want to consume a large amount of their troops with flying thunder cannons."

"Leave only a small number of troops to defend the city, and the other troops retreat to the city to reduce casualties."

After speaking, he turned to Huang Yu and asked, "Xiao Guang, what do you think?"

Huang Yu snorted coldly and said, "If the Japanese puppet army wants to retreat to the front, it depends on whether we agree or not."

"Let the troops attack the city immediately."

"Press the Japanese and puppet troops who have just retreated into the city to the top of the city."

"The Flying Thunder Artillery Unit is on standby."

"As soon as the number of Japanese and puppet troops on the top of the city increased, they opened fire. If you don't believe it, you can't kill them."

Li Yunlong laughed after hearing this: "I like this."

Then he rushed to the battlefield with a cheerful expression: "I'll make arrangements now."

"Fight for the next round of artillery fire to kill another two or three hundred Japanese and puppet troops."

…………

On the top of the east gate of Baoding, the adjutant was reporting the casualties. The captain felt that he had heard it wrong, so he asked in disbelief, "How much did you say? Say it again..."

"No more than 70 casualties..." the adjutant quickly replied.

When he first saw this statistical result, he didn't believe it either. The difference between the casualties caused by the first round of shelling was too great.

Seeing that most of the left behind soldiers were alive and well, they ran over to report.
