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

"Boom boom boom."

The sound of artillery boomed, and the Second Artillery Regiment and the heavy artillery battalion launched fierce shelling one after another.

A large number of artillery shells began to hit the little Japanese troops, and with the sound of explosions, shrapnel quickly spread in all directions.

Zhou Wenbo unified the command of the artillery troops to carry out precise artillery fire according to Chen Ziyun's orders, and a large number of artillery shells were continuously fired.

Of course, these targets to be bombarded were carefully calculated by Chen Ziyun to ensure that Yan Yu would not be accidentally injured.

After Li Chongtao and other officers heard the sound of the cannon, their faces showed surprise.

They couldn't help but glance at each other, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"The artillery unit actually started shooting. This... if Director Yan is accidentally injured, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Captain Zhou is simply acting recklessly. Even if he conducts artillery fire, the infantry will not participate in the battle. Their artillery fire has no meaning."

"Contact the artillery unit immediately and ask them to stop the shelling to avoid wasting artillery shells."

"Commander Chen, please think twice about this matter. If Director Yan makes a mistake, we will not be able to bear the responsibility."

Li Chongtao and other officers looked at Chen Ziyun and said with solemn expressions on their faces.

Chen Ziyun ignored them completely and sat on the chair.

At about two o'clock in the morning on June 3, the artillery troops began to carry out fierce shelling.

At around 2:30, the artillery unit began an extended bombardment.

At this time, the guard regiment and other units were still carrying out combat operations as planned.

Even though their regimental leader was absent, the officers and soldiers still fought according to Chen Ziyun's orders.

The Guard Regiment, 601st Regiment, 358th Regiment, Cavalry Regiment and other units successively participated in the battle.

At the same time, Li Yunlong's new regiment also started to kill a carbine and came directly to the battlefield.

By three o'clock in the morning, the troops commanded by Yamamoto Kazuki were attacked from many sides.

Fierce gunfire sounded continuously, and the dark night was as bright as day.

Li Chongtao and others froze on the spot, with incredible expressions on their faces.

They completely did not expect that even if they did not issue an order, each regiment would still execute Chen Ziyun's combat order.

"Commander Chen, now that you have made a decision, I will completely obey it."

Chu Yu saluted Chen Ziyun and wanted to return to the army directly.

But Chen Ziyun would not give them this chance. There were personal guards holding submachine guns and blocking the door directly.

When Li Chongtao and others saw this scene, they couldn't help showing expressions of surprise.

But they soon realized that after this incident, they completely lost Chen Ziyun's trust.

The fierce fighting continued, and by five o'clock in the morning, Wei Monk and Xie Yunxia had already commanded the main force of the first and second guerrilla regiments to come to the battlefield to join the battle.

At this time, each regiment completely surrounded the Japanese and puppet troops. They launched attacks from all sides and continuously attacked the little Japanese troops.

The Japanese and puppet cavalry units also want to conduct sorties to attack various ministries.

However, the Zhangwu Cavalry Regiment and Sun Desheng Cavalry Battalion fought jointly to directly suppress the Japanese and puppet cavalry.

Time is passing and the sky is gradually getting brighter.

Yamamoto Kazuki stood in the room with a solemn expression on his face.

It was already past eight o'clock in the morning, but the sound of gunfire around him still didn't stop. He couldn't help but hold the saber tightly with both hands.

"Baga Yalu, damn Chen Ziyun, he actually organized such a large number of troops to launch a combat strike."

"They obviously wanted to catch us off guard and hit us hard."

"Chen Ziyun really thought that I wouldn't do anything to Yan Yu, so he immediately brought Yan Yu over, cut off one of her arms, and sent it to Chen Ziyun."

"I want to see if Chen Ziyun still has the guts to continue attacking when he sees Yan Yu's arm."

Yamamoto Kazuki showed an angry expression on his face and roared loudly.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Captain." The little Japanese officer nearby agreed immediately.

But at this time, the combat platoon and a hundred elite soldiers drawn from the guard regiment quickly advanced towards the room where Yan Yu was located.

Moreover, the security regiment and Zhang Dabiao's First Battalion were fully deployed. They had already detoured back to the Little Japanese to carry out deep strikes to disrupt the Little Japanese's defense deployment.

For a time, the troops of both sides were fighting together, and the casualties and losses of each other continued to increase.

By ten o'clock in the morning, Matsutaro Tanabe, captain of the 18th Regiment in Makino Castle, saw an opportunity.

With more than a thousand troops, he quickly began to break out of the city.

However, Chen Ziyun was also prepared for this little devil.

The artillery troops began shelling, and dense artillery shells were fired at them. When the little Japanese troops evacuated, they were shelled one after another and suffered casualties.

The fighting outside the city continued, with constant gunfire.

Yamamoto Kazuki wanted to cut off Yan Yu's arm and send it to Chen Ziyun, thereby forcing Chen Ziyun to stop fighting.

However, fierce fighting was taking place everywhere on the battlefield, and the Japs' communication facilities were completely interrupted.

As for the messengers they sent, basically they would be killed soon after leaving Yamamoto Kazuki's wing headquarters.

Here in Jincheng, southeastern Shanxi Province, Chu Yunfei stood in front of the map with an anxious face.

When he learned that Chen Ziyun had begun commanding the troops to launch an attack, Chu Yunfei showed a solemn expression.

He felt that Chen Ziyun was too impulsive. In his opinion, Chen Ziyun's attack would definitely pose a threat to Yan Yu.

Even if the two sides are fighting, it is very likely that Yan Yu will die.

"Ziyun was too impulsive this time. He should not have commanded the troops to attack."

"I know he has strong abilities, but once Director Yan is in danger, the consequences will be disastrous."

"If Chief Yan pursues this matter, we will have no way to explain it."

"Brother Ligong, you...you should persuade Ziyun."

Chu Yunfei frowned and said with a solemn expression on his face.

Fang Ligong stood aside with a look of helplessness on his face, but he did not expect that Chen Ziyun would actually launch an attack.

He even didn't expect that Li Chongtao and others would completely obey Chen Ziyun's command and start fighting.

Of course, they still didn't know that although Li Chongtao and other military officers came forward to persuade him, they were unable to stop Chen Ziyun.

"Master, it's not too late to stop fighting now."

"Should we send a message to Commander Chen immediately and ask him to stop fighting immediately?"

"As long as he stops fighting, everything will be done in time, and Director Yan will definitely not be harmed."

After Fang Ligong hesitated for a moment, he said directly.

When Chu Yunfei heard this suggestion, he made arrangements immediately without any hesitation.

The communications troops immediately began to generate electricity for Chen Ziyun, and Chu Yunfei himself even set off for the northern Henan region in person.

But when Chu Yunfei sent the message, Chen Ziyun still ignored it. At this time, Chen Ziyun had personally come to the battlefield to take command, and various ministries continued to carry out combat strikes.

The casualties and losses of the Little Japanese troops continued to increase, and about 3,000 cavalry troops fought with all their strength.

They continued to fight with the cavalry regiment and other troops. By about four o'clock in the afternoon, more than 2,000 Japanese and puppet cavalrymen broke out.

However, the Zhangwu Cavalry Regiment and Sun Desheng Cavalry Battalion launched an all-out pursuit and continuously suppressed and attacked them to prevent them from affecting the battle.

At five o'clock, Matsutaro Tanabe, captain of the 18th Regiment, commanded the troops to break out from Makino Castle.

But there were only a thousand troops left in their army, and their howitzers were completely destroyed.

After all, it was impossible for the heavy howitzer to break out quickly with them.

"Your Excellency, Captain, Chen Ziyun has assembled a heavy force to attack the troops commanded by Captain Kazuki Yamamoto."

"According to our observation, Chen Ziyun assembled no less than six regiments for combat, and Captain Yamamoto Kazuki's troops were very passive."

"Their overall casualties are increasing. Your Excellency, Wing Commander, do we want to support them?"

"With our current strength, I'm afraid even if we rush to the battlefield, it won't be of much use."

A young Japanese sergeant came to Matsutaro Tanabe and said with a serious expression on his face.

Matsutaro Tanabe raised his telescope and looked at the battlefield, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

After a moment of silence, Tanabe Matsutaro gave the order.

He asked the troops to advance towards the battlefield with all their strength to support Yamamoto Kazuki's troops in the battle.

"Kill me." Matsutaro Tanabe drew out his saber and commanded the troops to start advancing.

The 18th Regiment was stationed in northern Henan to fight, but was given high hopes.

Okamura Neiji hoped that they could use the strength of their elite troops to attack Chen Ziyun's troops with all their strength and achieve greater results.

But so far, the 18th Regiment has suffered heavy casualties, and the 110th Division has suffered an almost devastating blow.

The remnants of the 18th Regiment also lost Makino Castle. Such a result was unacceptable to Matsutaro Tanabe.

He knows better that once the responsibility is investigated, he will definitely be responsible.

Therefore, Matsutaro Tanabe wanted to command the troops to support Kazuki Yamamoto in the battle, thereby making up for his mistakes.

But he wanted to support Kazuki Yamamoto in the battle, and he obviously thought too much.

After Chen Ziyun discovered the appearance of the 18th Regiment, he decisively mobilized troops to launch combat operations.

The artillery unit continued to attack it, while the 601st Regiment deployed troops to intercept it.

For a time, the fighting outside the city became more and more intense, and the casualties and losses of the Japanese troops continued to increase.

The five infantry brigades supported from the Hebei and Shandong regions have a full strength of more than 6,000 troops.

But now after continuous fighting, the overall losses of the Little Japanese troops have been heavy.

These five infantry brigades already number less than 4,000 people.

Yamamoto Kazuki's 700-man troops also suffered heavy losses. They currently only have more than 400 people.

Chen Ziyun directed the various ministries to strengthen their attacks and conduct continuous operations, which brought greater losses to the little Japanese troops.

At seven o'clock, Chen Ziyun arranged for the artillery to advance and conduct artillery fire at close range.

A large number of artillery shells were accurately fired at the Japs troops, and many of the Japs' heavy weapons were destroyed one after another.

The sky gradually turned dark, and Yamamoto Kazuki's regiment headquarters was here.

Yamamoto Kazuki's face was cold, and his eyes looked around coldly.

His wing headquarters was also bombarded during the day, and Kazuki Yamamoto was almost killed.

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the various ministries have lost contact, and we are completely caught up in the melee."

"Currently, various units have suffered heavy casualties. If they continue to fight, they may suffer a devastating blow."

"So now we should conduct a breakout immediately to ensure that the troops are not completely annihilated."

"The enemy has invested enough troops here. I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with it and will have no choice but to break out."

A captain came to Yamamoto Kazuki and said with a solemn expression on his face.

Yamamoto Kazuki's expression was indifferent, and he looked at the captain.

Immediately after Yamamoto Kazuki issued an order, he asked all ministries to find opportunities to break out.

However, he did not break out of the encirclement. Instead, he led dozens of people to search for Yan Yu's whereabouts.

Time is passing, it's past midnight.

Chen Ziyun showed a solemn expression on his face. The various departments have made great progress so far, and they have killed many Japanese troops.

However, there has been no news about Yan Yu from the combat platoon and other units, which makes Chen Ziyun very anxious.

After all, the premise of this battle is to ensure Yan Yu's absolute safety, otherwise it will be meaningless to obtain many results.

"Zero One, we...we failed to complete the combat mission."

"Although we tried our best to rescue him, the little devils were very strict with Director Yan, so we never had a chance."

"Director Yan is still in the hands of the little devils, but they have been surrounded by us and there is no way to break out."

"Originally, we had a chance to rescue Director Yan, but at the critical moment, a kid appeared and strengthened the defense."

"Currently, more than ten little devils are trapped in a residential house by us. The other party has made a request and wants to meet with you."

At half past twelve, Duan Peng came to Chen Ziyun with a solemn face and reported directly.

After hearing Duan Peng's report, Chen Ziyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Yan Yu could not be rescued, it is good news to know that Yan Yu is safe.

Chen Ziyun did not hesitate and followed Duan Peng directly to the residence.

At this time, in addition to the combat platoon troops, there were dozens of people from the guard group here, and they tightly surrounded the residences.

"I am Chen Ziyun, commander of the infantry artillery of the 201st Division and commander of the Zhongtiao Mountain Guerrilla Command."

"Listen, little devils inside, as long as you can release Director Yan, put down your weapons and choose to surrender, I can guarantee your safety."

"I, Chen Ziyun, absolutely mean what I say. If you plan to continue to resist, destruction will definitely be waiting for you."

After Chen Ziyun arrived at the residence, he had a cold expression on his face and shouted directly.

"Chen Ziyun, since 37 years, have you ever seen any imperial warriors who surrendered on their own initiative?"

"We will never surrender. Since you are already here, why don't we meet and have a serious discussion."

"I know that this woman is still very important to you."

A voice began to come out from inside. When Chen Ziyun heard it, he immediately realized that this was Yamamoto Kazuki's voice!

It's no wonder that the combat platoon failed to rescue Yan Yu. Yamamoto Kazuki came here in person.

"Captain Kazuki Yamamoto of the Special Agent Regiment, I really didn't expect that we would meet under such circumstances."

Chen Ziyun said calmly, but his eyes were full of murderous intent. (End of chapter)
