The reinforcements of the Japanese and puppet troops gathered more than 2000 people and seven or eight chariots. At present, all the reinforcements of the enemy have assembled outside the west city gate and are on standby.
These Japanese and puppet troops who had just been reinforced did not carry any heavy firepower, only a squadron of devil armored troops.
Two hours later, the devils established a headquarters on the back hill of the county seat.
During this time, the third and fourth battalions of the security regiment began to encircle and suppress the devil defenders in the streets north and east of the city.
The devil soldiers in the streets north and east of the city lost contact with the brigade headquarters. The little devils did not have a unified command, and they fought indiscriminately in the streets and alleys.
Because the devil had no command center and no artillery support, the little devil lost several important streets and alleys one after another, and also suffered two or three hundred casualties.
At this time, half of the territory in the city was in the hands of the security regiment. If Li Hong ordered the whole regiment to attack, the county could be taken within a day.
Li Hong's current battle plan is not just to quickly attack the county seat, he wants to make the little devils trapped in the city into a hard fight, keep asking for help, and attract more devil reinforcements to come for reinforcements.
The second war zone mobilized a lot of troops, and laid many ambushes on the way for the reinforcements of the devil's troops.
If the security regiment captured the county at all costs, it would have no strategic significance for the little devils to reinforce Gucheng County, and the battle plan of "siege and reinforcement" would be shattered.
Chapter 679 Fighting Aids and Pulling Out Strongholds ([-])
As soon as the devils established the brigade headquarters, Kameda Yelang immediately sent telegram orders to the devil headquarters in the north and east of the city.
Commander Devil, who was defending the east and north blocks of the city, received the combat order from the brigade commander and immediately changed the deployment of combat defense.
Guitian Yelang called a number of devil officers to a meeting at the brigade headquarters. They discussed the counterattack plan and recaptured the central street.
In order to regain the lost ground, the little devil requested the support of the aviation team.
At the same time, the devil's reinforcements from all walks of life are also marching on the move, rushing towards Gucheng County...
When the little devil was discussing the counterattack plan, Li Hong received intelligence news from the scouts.
Li Hong had just washed his face and was about to have breakfast, when suddenly, two scouts from the Special Forces rushed over.
"Reporting to the group, we found a large number of Japanese reinforcements gathering in the western outskirts of the city!"
"How many reinforcements did the little devil come?"
The scout continued to report to Li Honghui: "Tuan, there are about two groups of devils, there are also some puppet troops, and the devil's armored force..."
Li Hong put down the steamed bun in his hand, picked up the binoculars on the table, and strode outside the headquarters.
He raised the binoculars in his hand, and his sight quickly extended to the western outskirts of the city fifteen kilometers away.
On a sloping field in the western outskirts of the city, a large number of little devils and puppet troops gathered.
On the side of the road not far from the slope, various vehicles and seven or eight chariots of devils were parked.
At this time, the Japanese and puppet soldiers gathered together in groups of three and four, gnawing dry food in their mouths, and the enemy looked very lazy and tired.
Li Hong slowly moved the binoculars to carefully observe the firepower of the devil's reinforcements within a few kilometers.
Most of the Japanese and puppet troops were equipped with light weapons, and there were not many heavy weapons and artillery.
Judging from the weapons and firepower carried by the little devils and their chaotic formation, most of these little devils should be miscellaneous troops without a strong will to fight.
The only heavy firepower weapons and equipment that the little devil can claim are those tanks and multiple [-]-type infantry guns.
Of course, Li Hong didn't take these little devils' reinforcements seriously, and the enemy's miscellaneous troops came to reinforce them, and they were just giving away their heads.
Chen Lin next to him took a few bites of steamed buns, put down his binoculars, and said slowly: "Brother-in-law, the Japanese and puppet troops from the west of the city came to reinforce last night. Judging from the enemy's firepower equipment, it should not be an elite field force of devils. It must be the devil's defenders in the nearby villages and towns."
Li Hong nodded, and said disapprovingly: "These Japanese and puppet reinforcements are all mixed-up troops from various strongholds, and the little devils marched all night, exhausted, and the enemy is nothing to worry about."
"Brother-in-law, the little devil has so many reinforcements, and he will definitely organize a counterattack soon. We should act first, give the devil's reinforcements a head-on blow, and wipe out the enemy's morale!" Chen Lin said to Li Hong rigorously. , he suggested immediately dispatching air force bombing support.
After hearing Chen Lin's suggestion, Li Hong couldn't help but smile, his smile was a bit sly, and he also agreed with Chen Lin.
"Chen Lin, are you really a chicken thief? Your brain turns really fast, just as I thought."
"Brother-in-law, I learned this from you. When you catch a fighter, do you act first!" Chen Lin grinned, and continued with a smile: "Besides, the little devils from various strongholds finally gathered together. It's not your style to reward them with tons of bombs, is it?"
Li Hong turned around and looked at Chen Lin with contempt in his eyes: "You are so smart and capable, I will give you command of the security team, so I can save my worries."
"Brother-in-law, our security regiment already has the size of a division. I can't command so many troops if you give me all at once." Chen Lin waved his hand and suggested, "Brother-in-law, my ability is no match for yours." However, it is no problem for me to command three or five battalions to fight."
"Ha ha……"
Li Hong smiled strangely, suddenly, his expression changed, and he slapped him with a slap in the face.
Chen Lin was a little stunned by the slap, he touched his head and said aggrievedly: "It's fine for my sister to beat me up, but you started beating me before you became my brother-in-law..."
"I am a regimental commander, what's wrong with beating you a battalion commander?" Li Hong stared at him with wide eyes and said, "You boy commanded the armored battalion to lose so many tanks and cause so many casualties. With your little ability to command Three or five battalions, in a few days, you will have to wipe out your family fortune."
"Brother-in-law, I..."
Chen Lin had nothing to say. In the previous siege and street fighting, he did make a mistake in command.
"If I didn't think you were my brother-in-law, I would have asked you to feed the pigs!" Li Hong scolded Chen Lin, and said solemnly: "Remember, don't underestimate the enemy at any time, and don't rush for quick success, otherwise, you One mistake in command will cost the troops heavy casualties!"
The armored battalion caused such a large battle loss, in addition to Chen Lin's failure to command the infantry and coordinated operations, there was another reason.
The current armored battalion is a reserve force, not trained by Chen Lin alone. Therefore, the infantry and tanks lack experience in coordinated operations, and it is for this reason that Chen Lin makes command mistakes.
"Okay, go back and write an in-depth review, as well as a post-war summary!"
"Yes, group seat!"
Chen Lin saluted and hurried back to write the review and report.
Seeing Chen Lin leave, Li Hong smiled meaningfully. He didn't mean to blame Chen Lin, but mainly beat him to remind Chen Lin to avoid making some low-level command mistakes.
"Communication soldier!"
The communication soldiers not far away heard Li Hong's voice, and immediately ran over in large strides.
"Immediately send power to our friendly forces. The reinforcements dispatched by the devils have arrived in Gucheng County. The surrounding strongholds are empty of enemy troops. Please cooperate with us in eradicating the Japanese and puppet strongholds!"
"Also, reinforcements from the Japanese and puppet troops have assembled in the western suburbs, and immediately give combat orders to the squadron!"
"Yes, group seats!!!"
The signal soldiers ran away one after another, and returned to the headquarters to convey Li Hong's combat instructions.
……
The head of the Devils Brigade, Kameda Noro, and the officers planned a counter-offensive operation plan, and he was not in a hurry to order the Japanese and puppet troops outside the city to attack.
