People are shining their swords, secretly helping the Iron Triangle in Northwest Shanxi

At about nine o'clock in the evening on July [-], a huge white cloth was hung in Wangwu Town.

There is a turtle painted on this piece of white cloth, with two lines of large characters on the turtle shell.

After receiving the report, Colonel Kimura and Colonel Nakagawa quickly came out to check, and the two raised their telescopes to observe.

The nearby puppet army officer didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly made observations.

After seeing the Chinese characters on it, a puppet army officer showed a puzzled expression.

"Yu Ren is a turtle bastard?"

"Who is this Yuren? Why do the Jinsui Army call him a turtle bastard?"

"It's really strange, how could the Jinsui Army do such a thing."

The three puppet army officers started talking in confusion, and some smart puppet army officers had already realized that something was wrong.

As the puppet army's discussion rang out, Colonel Kimura and Colonel Nakagawa looked angry.

Without any hesitation, they drew out their sabers and slashed directly at the three puppet soldiers.

The three puppet army officers did not react at all, and fell one by one under the sabers of the two captains.

When the Japanese and puppet troops nearby saw this scene, they were inevitably a little frightened, and none of them even dared to show their anger.

"Bagayalu, this enemy army is simply looking for death!"

"How dare they do such a thing, we must deal with them completely no matter what."

"Prepare special bombs immediately, and the cavalry unit wears gas masks and prepares for attack."

"No matter how many casualties we pay this time, we must annihilate them."

An angry expression appeared on Kimura Osaka's face, and he roared loudly.

Colonel Nakagawa on the side originally advocated evacuation and temporarily gave up the combat attack on Wangwu Town.

But after seeing this, he also had an angry expression on his face.

Regarding Colonel Kimura's decision, Colonel Nakagawa agreed directly without any hesitation.

Yuren was their emperor, and the little devil regarded him as a divine order.

At this time, Chen Ziyun's arrangement completely angered the little devil.

The two Japanese colonels completely lost their minds and wanted to capture Wangwu Town at all costs.

Of course, some Japanese and puppet troops could also see that the Wangwu garrison did this just to anger the Japanese army.

But at this time, no one dared to suggest giving up the attack.

After all, in the eyes of the Japanese army, if the Jinsui Army dared to do such a thing, it would have to suffer a devastating blow.

Anyone who suggested giving up the attack would be liable for a heavy crime.

And the two captains of the Colonel detachment did not dare not to take action. After all, if this matter spread, it would have a great impact on them.

Yu Ren was insulted by the Jinsui Army, but the Japanese army officer remained indifferent. Such a crime was fatal among the Japanese troops!

Colonel Kimura and Colonel Nakagawa quickly prepared, and the 25th Cavalry Regiment and the 26th Cavalry Regiment gathered together.

Gas masks were issued to more than 1000 Japanese cavalry, and boxes of special ammunition they carried were also issued.

More than 4000 cavalrymen from the four puppet cavalry regiments gathered together. They did not have gas masks, so they did not need to attack this time.

The puppet army officers accompanied the two Japanese commanders, waiting for follow-up combat orders.

At 09:30, the Third Battalion of the Cavalry Artillery began the artillery bombardment.

Twelve 75MM cavalry field guns began to fire fiercely at Wangwu Town, and countless artillery shells were fired towards Wangwu Town one after another.

This time, the Japanese artillery troops had no reservations at all and fired a large number of artillery shells one after another.

At this time, this artillery force had almost used up all its shells, and countless shells continued to fall near Wangwu Town.

Explosions were heard one after another, and smoke was everywhere in Wangwu Town.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Japanese cavalry began to advance rapidly, and a cavalryman approached carrying a grenade.

After reaching the firing range, the cavalry quickly dismounted and the grenade launchers were scattered and set up.

At ten o'clock, the Japs' grenades began to fire special bombs frantically towards Wangwu Town.

The so-called special bombs of the Japanese army are actually poison gas bombs.

Of course, in order to quickly break through the Wangwu Town position, the little devil released stimulating gas bombs this time.

This kind of gas bomb will make people cry continuously and completely lose their combat effectiveness.

Poison gas bombs were launched one after another towards Wangwu Town. Soon, Wangwu Town was covered with poison gas.

Colonel Kimura and Colonel Nakagawa raised their telescopes for observation, with serious expressions on their faces.

After waiting for the gas bombs to be fired, they decisively issued the order to attack.

Two cavalry regiments, gathering more than [-] cavalrymen, quickly attacked Wangwu Town.

This time they gathered an absolute force and launched an attack from the east with all their strength.

The 25th Cavalry Regiment and the 26th Cavalry Regiment were organized as cavalry squadrons and advanced rapidly.

But the little devil didn't know that at this time, the officers and soldiers of the mountain artillery regiment, guard battalion, and machine gun battalion in the town had quickly put on gas masks.

Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun commanded the troops to fight the Japanese army several times, and this was not the first time that the Japs used poison gas bombs.

They specifically applied to the superiors, and Yan Laoxi sent a batch of gas masks, but the quantity was not very large.

However, the follow-up system continued to reward gas masks, and gas masks were also distributed here in the First War Zone.

Not long ago, he completed the task of annihilating two puppet army divisions, and the system even awarded him a gas mask.

Therefore, the 201st Division has a lot of gas masks, and the Mountain Artillery Regiment and other troops also specially carried them this time.

When Chen Ziyun arranged the deployment, he naturally knew that he would completely anger the little devil, so he made preparations in advance.

"Contact the Mountain Artillery Regiment, and we will focus on shelling the Japanese cavalry in a while, and intercept their follow-up troops from entering the town to fight."

"The machine gun battalion and the guard battalion put seven to eight hundred Japanese cavalry into the town and started shooting in an effort to completely annihilate them."

"The Japanese cavalry units that enter the town must be completely annihilated no matter what, and they cannot be allowed to break out."

"At the same time, contact Zhang Wu and ask him to command the troops to immediately launch operations to destroy the Japanese artillery positions."

Chen Ziyun was also wearing a gas mask at this time. With a serious expression on his face, he gave the order directly.

After receiving the order, the nearby messengers and communication soldiers did not dare to delay and quickly began to convey the order.

At this time, the little devils were already advancing towards the town, and dozens of Japanese cavalry in front had already entered the town.

After they entered the town, they quickly advanced in depth.

After encountering no resistance, the main force of the Little Devil Cavalry began to charge crazily towards the town.

At around ten o'clock, a full [-] cavalrymen entered the town.

These cavalry quickly spread around, preparing to find the Jinsui Army troops for annihilation.

The subsequent cavalry units accelerated their advance, and the Japanese army was preparing to advance all more than 1000 cavalry units into the town to fight.However, at this time, the mountain artillery regiment began to launch a fierce bombardment under the command of regiment leader Li Yang.

Twelve Bofors mountain cannons, twelve Type 16 mountain cannons, and eight Jin-made Type 105 [-]MM mountain cannons.

32 mountain guns started bombarding at the same time, and dense shells were fired towards the outside of the town one after another.
Deafening explosions continued to sound, and countless shrapnel quickly spread around.

The subsequent cavalry units advancing towards Wangwu Town were instantly attacked.

For a moment, blood and flesh flew everywhere, many cavalrymen fell to the ground instantly, and some horses were blown to pieces.

A large number of cavalry were bombarded by artillery and suffered heavy casualties. The remaining [-] cavalry were unable to advance.

They were hit by fierce fire from the mountain artillery regiment, and the casualties and losses instantly exceeded 200 people.

The remaining 400 cavalrymen could no longer move forward. Faced with such firepower, they quickly withdrew.

"Baga Yalu, what on earth is going on? Their artillery was not affected in any way."

"The First Cavalry Regiment of the Imperial Association Army and the Second Cavalry Regiment of the Imperial Association Army quickly detoured from both sides and advanced the search west of Wangwu Town."

"Check the location of their artillery units. If you find their artillery units, destroy them completely at all costs."

"The messengers quickly contacted the troops inside the city, quickly launched an annihilation operation, and quickly completely annihilated the enemy troops in the town."

A serious expression appeared on Colonel Kimura's face as he decisively issued the order.

In his opinion, the artillery unit of the Jinsui Army probably left Wangwu Town, so it was not affected by the gas bombs.

He arranged for the puppet cavalry troops to attack quickly to search and annihilate the artillery units of the Shanxi-Sui Army.

It was only at this time that fierce gunfire began to ring out in the town.

The guard battalion and the machine gun battalion began to launch fire strikes, and dense bullets and artillery shells were fired at the Japanese cavalry one after another.

As fierce gunfire rang out, the Japanese cavalry fell into a pool of blood one after another.

The Japanese cavalry's operations in the town were greatly restricted, and they had no way to fight back.

A large number of light and heavy machine guns, semi-automatic rifles and other weapons continued to fire.

The Japanese cavalry fell to the ground one after another, and painful wailing sounds could be heard from time to time.

"This... what's going on? The enemy launched intensive firepower in the town. How did they do it?"

"Poison gas bombs will make them lose their combat effectiveness, but how can they continue to fight."

"Do they have enough gas masks? How is this possible..."

"Bagaya Road, attack quickly and enter the town for combat immediately."

"Cavalry troops, kill them all!"

When Colonel Kimura and Colonel Nakagawa heard the fierce gunfire coming from the town, they instantly showed panic expressions.

Along with the screams of war horses, the painful wails of the Japanese troops continued to be heard, and they hurriedly issued orders.

Two puppet cavalry regiments, plus more than 400 Japanese cavalry, quickly advanced into the town.

However, after these cavalry took action, the mountain artillery regiment shelled again and quickly intercepted them.

At the same time, the cavalry battalion and combat artillery battalion hidden in the high ground on the north side began to attack and launch operations.

More than 1000 cavalrymen quickly came out. Under the cover of Soviet-made anti-aircraft artillery, they quickly attacked the Little Japanese artillery position.

The position of the third cavalry artillery brigade began to be attacked by the cavalry battalion, and the twelve cavalry field guns were instantly transferred.

The Japanese artillerymen quickly fled the battlefield with their field artillery, but Zhang Wu commanded the cavalry battalion to pursue them continuously.

All kinds of firepower gradually started shooting, and the Japanese artillery was hit one after another and fell directly to the ground.

Some cavalry field guns began to be discarded and gradually became the trophies of the cavalry battalion.

When Colonel Kimura and Colonel Nakagawa heard the battle unfolding behind them, they couldn't help but widen their eyes with solemn expressions.

At this time, they became very passive in fighting and were beaten almost everywhere.

They began to issue orders, requiring all ministries to withdraw quickly and stop fighting.

However, it was almost impossible for the Japanese cavalry that entered the town to withdraw at this time.

Time passed bit by bit, and around three o'clock in the morning, the sound of gunfire gradually became sparse in Wangwu Town.

The Japanese and puppet troops began to give up their attack on Wangwu Town, and they quickly withdrew towards Jiyuan City.

Of course, on their way back, there were corpses of Japanese and puppet cavalry everywhere.

By about five o'clock in the morning, the fighting here in Wangwu Town became quiet.

Chen Ziyun commanded the troops to quickly clean up the battlefield, then directly abandoned Wangwu Town and moved towards the northern highlands.

In this battle, they achieved great results. Even the cavalry battalion that participated in the subsequent battle captured four cavalry field guns!
The guard battalion and other troops also made great gains. A large number of war horses transported various weapons and ammunition and moved to the northern highlands.

Because there were too many cavalry, Chen Ziyun was forced to arrange a complete evacuation to avoid being discovered by the Little Japanese Air Force.

But here in Jiyuan City, Colonel Kimura and Colonel Nakagawa looked solemn.

Their two detachments include four puppet cavalry regiments and two Japanese cavalry regiments, with a total of more than 8000 troops.

And subsequently they were strengthened by the Third Cavalry Artillery Battalion and the Armored Vehicle Squadron.

However, so far in the battle, there are only more than 800 cavalry units left in the two cavalry regiments.

The four puppet cavalry regiments suffered more than [-] casualties.

At present, the Japanese and puppet cavalry troops continue to fight with only more than [-] troops at full capacity.

The Third Battalion of Cavalry Artillery was forced to abandon four cavalry field guns and blow up two cavalry field guns.

The armored vehicle squadron was hit by combat anti-aircraft fire and lost two armored vehicles.

Such a heavy loss made the two captains look solemn.

They looked at each other, and for a moment they didn't know how to contact the brigade headquarters to report.

"Your Excellency, detachment leader, the enemy troops in Wangwu Town have evacuated, and now Wangwu Town is empty."

"According to the report of the reconnaissance force, the enemy continued to fight and may have suffered heavy casualties, so they were forced to abandon Wangwu Town."

"If we advance now, we can easily capture Wangwu Town."

At 05:30, a Japanese officer came to the wing headquarters and quickly saluted and reported.

The Japanese and puppet troops withdrew to Jiyuan City, but they continued to send reconnaissance troops to check the situation in Wangwu Town in detail.

After Chen Ziyun commanded the troops to abandon Wangwu Town, the Japanese and puppet reconnaissance troops quickly reported.

Colonel Kimura and Colonel Nakagawa received the report, and the two couldn't help but glance at each other.

"Order the troops to advance quickly to Wangwu Town, but be careful of ambushes by enemy troops."

The two men issued the order at the same time. After all, for them, being able to capture Wangwu Town was somewhat of a military achievement.

With this military exploit, they will naturally be able to have an account with Sakuma Shigemori. (End of chapter)
