I rise from the sword

Chapter 353 Fighting wits and courage, the fooled little devil

When the 10 devil soldiers of the Ikeda Squadron escaped to the sky and ran out of the blockade of the machine gun, Tokugawa Ichiro also put down the sounding balloon and returned to the ground.

At this time, a communications officer hurried over, found Tokugawa Ichiro, gave a sharp pause, and then reported: "Report to Your Excellency, the Chief of Staff, the sharp regiment of the Chinese Army has ambushes in Fenyang County, and the Ikeda Squadron who just entered the city was attacked. Arriving at the ambush by the sharp regiment of the Chinese Army, there were only more than 10 imperial soldiers in the entire squadron who turned back.

The rest of the imperial army, including Captain Ikeda, were all smashed into the city! "

"Ok!"

Tokugawa Ichiro nodded his head to express his understanding, but the devil next to him yelled 'Ba Ga' angrily, and then continued: "Chief of Staff Harmony, this damn Yang Lin is really cunning, it seems that we I have fallen into his plan to lure the enemy into the depths!"

Another devil, Shao Zuo, echoed: "This damned Yang Lin is really cunning, he not only fooled our aerial reconnaissance, but even used the radio station of our super high class to find out and confuse us to the headquarters, it is extremely abominable! "

When the two finished speaking, Tokugawa Ichiro had a cold smile on his face: "No, Miyamoto-kun, Yamaguchi-kun, although Yang Lin is extremely difficult, but this time I think you are too tall Guess Yang Lin."

"You should be very clear that in addition to being loyal to the empire, the agents of the special high class are all well-trained agents."

After a pause, Tokugawa Ichiro continued: "It's not that the imperial agents of the super high class will not be wiped out by Yang Lin, but even if they will be wiped out by Yang Lin, they will still send out the password book and the radio station before they are exposed." Destroy them all."

"Therefore, there shouldn't be any problem with the information sent by the special high school."

"After this attack by the Ikeda Squadron, I have confirmed this even more."

Seeing that the subordinate officers around him were puzzled, Tokugawa Ichiro continued to explain: "First of all, the information provided by the special high-level class shows that although the Chinese Army's Zhongrui Regiment is only a regiment-level unit in name, after passing During this period of development and growth, its military strength has exceeded 5000.

If the main force of the sharp regiment of the Chinese Army had not withdrawn, it would be absolutely impossible for Yang Lin to abandon the field fortifications outside the city and retreat to the city with Yang Lin's style of conduct.

Because Fenyang County is so small that we can use saturation bombing to directly raze it to the ground.

Moreover, if the main force of the sharp regiment of the Chinese Army had not retreated, how could it be possible for the Ikeda Squadron to escape alive.

Not to mention a squadron of the imperial army, even a brigade of the imperial army may not be able to escape! "

"Ok!"

All the devils and officers were deeply impressed, and they fully agreed with the speculation of Chief of Staff Tokugawa Ichiro.

Immediately, a devil major asked again: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, what should we do now?"

"Concentrate our forces and capture Fenyang County in one fell swoop!"

After Tokugawa Ichiro finished speaking, he shook his fist fiercely: "Right now, with the retreat of the main force, the biggest weakness of the sharp regiment of the Chinese Army is their strength!"

"Although the city of Fenyang County is not big, it has four gates, which greatly dispersed the strength of the sharp regiment of the Chinese Army.

If our troops split up and launch an attack, the sharp regiment of the Chinese Army, which is empty of troops, will inevitably lose sight of one thing and lose another, making it difficult to deal with it! "

The devil officers nodded again, and Tokugawa Ichiro gave the order directly: "Pass my order, the 1st Infantry Battalion is responsible for attacking the East Gate, the 2nd Infantry Battalion is in charge of attacking the South Gate, and the 3rd Infantry Battalion is in charge of attacking the North Gate!"

"Hi Yi!"

All the devil officers nodded their heads together, and then Nobukazu Miyamoto, the captain of the 1st Battalion of the 1st Battalion of the Garrison Infantry, asked doubtfully, "Your Excellency, what about the West Gate? Are you allowing the sharp regiment of the Chinese Army to escape from the West Gate? "

A sinister fox-like smile bloomed on Tokugawa Ichiro's face: "Everyone, have you ever heard that China has a strategy to fight against the Three Ques?"

Seeing that the ghost officers still looked puzzled, Tokugawa Ichiro went on to explain: "The so-called encirclement is to surround the enemy in three directions, leaving only one opening."

"Of course, leaving this hole is not to let the enemy escape, but to destroy it more conveniently!"

"Because, once the enemy knows that he is surrounded on all sides and has no way out, he will most likely fight to the death. In that case, even if he can be wiped out, he will definitely suffer great casualties."

"But if you leave a retreat for the enemy, it will greatly damage their morale, make them unwilling to fight, and the difficulty of eliminating them will definitely be greatly reduced!"

"Finally, let's set up an ambush outside the opening, and we can easily destroy it!"

"Your Excellency the Chief of Staff is wise!"

This time, the devil officers were deeply impressed by the superb strategy put forward by Tokugawa Ichiro.

……

After half an hour.

The three infantry brigades of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the Japanese Garrison each organized their forces, and their artillery units aimed their muzzles at the east, south, and north gates of Fenyang County.

"Everyone, Artillery Gejiu, prepare for shelling!!!"

After the devil's main shooter locked the attack target, he quickly took the shells handed over by the ammunition hand next to him, and stuffed them into the barrel of the gun.

"Artillery attack! Attack!"

"Kill the chicken and give it!!!"

The commander of the Devils Artillery swung the command knife in his hand forward. The artillerymen received the order and pulled the firing rope together.

"Tom!"

"Tom tom tom tom!—"

The dense and dull cannonballs sounded from time to time.

Shells of various calibers flew out of the devil's artillery position, flying towards Fenyang County like stones that cost nothing.

Although the little devil's attack was only to force the Zhongrui regiment to retreat from the west gate, and then sneak into the ambush circle they set up.

But in order to make the most of the show, the shells are all genuine.

Because Tokugawa Ichiro knew about the fighting power of the Zhongrui Regiment, and he had experienced it. If he didn't work hard, he might not be able to force him out of the city.

Of course, although Tokugawa Ichiro's strategy is wonderful, it is just his wishful thinking.

A few seconds later, the shells fell to the ground like meteorites, falling one after another on the east gate, south gate, north gate, and nearby urban areas.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom, boom!—"

Earth-shattering explosions sounded one after another, blasting these urban areas into flames and dust everywhere.

The city and the buildings on the towers were bombed by shells, and a large number of bricks and rubble were blown to pieces, flying in all directions with the explosion shock wave.

Fortunately, although the city wall of Fenyang County was a bit old, it was extremely strong. The devil's shells only blew up the building above the city gate, but did not blow down the city wall.

And Yang Lin had already seen the little devil's three axes, so, except for a small number of observation posts who risked their lives on the city wall to scout and warn, the rest of the officers and soldiers all went down the city wall ahead of time and hid in a safe place.

"Boom, boom, boom!—"

In order to complete the show, Tokugawa Ichiro also spent a lot of money. Before the wave of his artillery attack was over, another wave came down again, even throwing in the two 150mm caliber heavy howitzers.

Cannonballs exploded everywhere, and thick gunpowder smoke filled the vicinity of the tower.

Many of the shells even flew into the city, destroying many houses and buildings on both sides of the street.

The houses that were already crumbling were completely reduced to ruins.

……

Fenyang County.

The underground temporary regiment headquarters of the Zhongrui Regiment.

3rd Battalion Commander Zhou Yun shook the soil above his head, and walked down from the ground through the steps.

"Tuan Zuo, according to the information provided by the reconnaissance post, the little devil only launched shelling on the east, south and north gates.

What are they going to do?Is it to confuse us that Simon is the main target of attack? "

"Do not rule out this possibility!"

Yang Lin nodded, then changed his voice and continued: "However, if this is the case, then Tokugawa Ichiro's offensive methods are a bit too childish."

"Oh? What does that little devil want?"

"Surrounded by three ques and one!"

Yang Lin said with a solemn expression: "The information provided by the war zone commander's department shows that although the old devil Tokugawa Ichiro has never actually commanded troops in combat, his strategic vision and tactical guidance ability cannot be underestimated!"

"This man is proud and arrogant. He has been waiting for an opportunity to show his ambition. In order to wait for this opportunity, he must have done his homework!"

"So, this is most likely the battle plan of Wei San Que Yi!"

"If there is no accident, after the shelling is over, this person will attack from three directions: east, south, and north.

It seems to be emptying the west gate, but in fact it must have set up a large number of ambushes outside the west gate, just waiting for us to escape from the west gate! "

After a pause, the corners of Yang Lin's mouth rose slightly, showing an imperceptible sneer: "However, this old devil has calculated everything, but he never calculated it. The main force of my Zhongrui regiment has not withdrawn from Fenyang. county seat.

Therefore, it is doomed that he has only one way to go: failure! "

After listening to the analysis of the group leader Yang Lin, Zhou Yun and others were stunned for a while, and then scared for a while. This Tokugawa Ichiro is really cunning.

If it weren't for the team leader Yang Lin, with their tactical minds, they might not be able to beat the old devil Tokugawa Ichiro.

……

10 minutes later.

Tokugawa Ichiro seemed to feel that the heat was almost ready, so he stopped the shelling and ordered the infantry to attack.

"Infantry attack forward!"

"Infantry advance! Kill the chicken, kill the chicken!!!"

The three infantry brigades of the 1st Regiment of the Garrison Infantry immediately divided into three groups and launched attacks in three directions: the east gate, south gate and north gate of Fenyang County.

Although it was only to force the officers and soldiers of the Zhongrui regiment in the city to break through to the west gate, the offensive of the 1st Regiment of the Garrison Infantry was also very fast.

……

The east gate of the county seat.

After the shelling was over, Yang Lin left the temporary regiment headquarters underground and climbed onto the city wall.

Yang Lin raised his binoculars and observed the devil troops attacking outside the city.

Thousands of meters away, the devil's soldiers were like locusts crossing the border, a vast area, swarming towards the county town in groups.

At this time, the communication soldier next to him put down the phone and reported to Yang Linhui: "Reporting group, in addition to this little devil outside the east city gate, there are also another little devil outside the south city gate and north city gate who are going to the county seat at the same time." The direction launched an attack!"

The corner of Yang Lin's mouth raised slightly, and the situation was exactly as he expected.

"Tell the fourth battalion and the fifth battalion to bring the little devil closer before beating him, but there is one thing, I must beat me hard, and I don't need to hide like before!"

"Yes!"

The communication soldier suddenly agreed, and then picked up the phone to convey Yang Lin's order to the fourth battalion stationed at the south gate and the fifth battalion stationed at the north gate.

Soon, the little devils of the 1st Battalion of the Garrison Infantry arrived at a position 200 meters away from the east gate.

The leader of the Devil Battalion, Miyamoto Shinkazu, only thought that the main force of the Zhongrui Regiment had already withdrawn, leaving only a small part of the rear troops. They would definitely put his Miyamoto Battalion into the city just like they did with the Ikeda Squadron.

Therefore, the old devil appeared to be unscrupulous. In order to win the first attack in the city, he kept waving the command knife in his hand and ordered his soldiers to charge forward at a faster speed.

"Charge forward!"

"The infantry continue to charge forward!"

"Kill the chicken! Kill the chicken!!!"

More than 1000 little devils lined up in a dense formation and went straight to the east gate of Fenyang County.

However, when they were less than 50 meters away from the gate of the opened city, they saw that they could rush into the city with just one breath and win the first prize.

Hundreds of black gun barrels suddenly protruded from the arrow crenels of the city wall more than 10 meters high.

"Brothers in the third battalion, hit me, give me a hard hit!!!"

Following the order of the third battalion commander Zhou Yun, the officers and soldiers of the third battalion pulled the trigger one after another.

"Tug, chug, chug, chug!"

"Da da da, da da da da!!!"

"Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa……"

All of a sudden, a hundred guns were fired, and the dense bullets immediately poured down the city like a torrential rain and covered them.

"what!"

"Uh, uh, uh..."

The little devils under the city never dreamed that the Zhongrui regiment would set up the defense line on the city wall this time, and there were so many people there.

Caught off guard, suddenly screamed and fell down a large piece.

"Baga! Not good, we fell for it!"

"Don't mess up, counterattack, defend and counterattack!"

"Machine gunner, grenadier team, suppress firepower, hurry up, hurry up!!!"

After the initial panic, the little devils in Miyamoto's brigade quickly reacted.

They immediately scattered in all directions, each looking for a bunker to avoid, and at the same time relying on the defensive bunker to build a firepower point.

At this time, the field fortifications dug by the Zhongrui Regiment outside the city seemed to have become the life-saving straw for these little devils.

"Into the trenches, quickly into the trenches!"

Miyamoto Nobuka glanced at the trenches around him, and immediately thought about it, and immediately rushed into the trenches next to him at the fastest speed.

"Tu Tu Tu!"

"Da da da!"

"Crack, clap clap..."

The devil soldiers also discovered the criss-cross trenches around them, and they all fired back while flying towards them.

"Hehehe! Do you really think that the trenches left by me will be so cheap for you?"

Seeing thousands of little devils jumping into the nearest trench like life-saving straws, Yang Lin's mouth suddenly raised a cruel smile.

Immediately set up a grenade launcher, picked up an incendiary bomb from the side, and stuffed it into the barrel...
