    When the Japanese soldiers were eating, Hou Zhankui and others stood on the gate tower of the north gate of Shen County and watched. Although they were far away, they could still roughly see the situation of the little Japanese with the help of telescopes.

    After seeing clearly the situation of the Japanese army, Hou Zhankui breathed a sigh of relief!

    Originally, he felt very unsure. After all, there were only about 1,500 defenders in Shenxian County at this time, while the Japs were said to have more than 3,000 soldiers. The strength was two to one, so the difference in strength was a bit big.

    What¡¯s more important is that the one who came this time was a brigade. According to the organization of the little devils, the independent mixed brigade usually has a large number of technical arms, including no less than one brigade of artillery and a squadron of tank troops.

    But after seeing the situation of the Japanese troops lighting fires outside the city, Hou Zhankui discovered that the number of imps may be different from the intelligence. Judging from the number of cooks on the other side, it was at most a little more than 2,000, and the difference would not exceed 200 people.

    Therefore, the number of troops inside and outside the city is almost the same, and Hou Zhankui has not found tanks or armored vehicles among the Japanese army. This is undoubtedly good news for them.

    At 8:30 in the morning, it was bright and the sun had risen. Then, under the command of Major General Sekihara Six, the Japanese army launched an attack.

    As expected by Li Guoyao, after the battle started, the Japanese army concentrated its forces at the north gate to storm the defenders' positions, and at the same time dispatched some elite troops to bypass the south gate, preparing to attack the Shenxian defenders from the north and south.

    The battle entered a fierce stage at the beginning. Due to holding back his anger, Major General Sekigahara did not even conduct a tentative attack and directly pressed the main force up.

    In his opinion, the army on the opposite side is just an irregular force. Judging from its combat mode, uniform style and training level, there is an 80% chance that the enemy army on the opposite side is Tubal Road.

    No wonder the Guanyuan Sixth Society thought this way, mainly because Li Guoyao deliberately let the troops wear civilian clothes to fight in order to confuse the Japanese army. This was the product of the Eighth Route Army's theory of hiding troops among the people.

    In North China, the Eighth Route Army has become an important armed force after more than three years of development. So far, the total strength of the Eighth Route Army's units has exceeded everyone's expectations, reaching four to five million people.

    ¡°I think that when the Red Army accepted the adaptation, there were only more than 40,000 people. In just three years, it increased more than ten times.

    The rapid development of the Eighth Route Army has also attracted the attention of the Japanese army. At the North China Front Army¡¯s security operations meeting held not long ago, Commander Shun Tada directly called the Eighth Route Army the cancer of North China¡¯s security!

    In addition, another reason for the misjudgment of Guanyuan Liu is that there is no main force of the National Army in Liaocheng area. The last regular force of the National Army left in Liaocheng is Fan Zhuxian.  However, in November 1938, with the death of General Fan Zhuxian, this unit also suffered all casualties, and there was no longer a main force of the national army around Liaocheng.

    Due to wrong judgment, Sekihara Roku made the wrong decision. In his opinion, there is no need to pay too much attention to dealing with a Tubal army, just attack directly.  As a result, the Japanese and puppet troops were attacked wildly by Hou Zhankui's troops as soon as they arrived, causing heavy casualties.

    In order to severely injure the little Japs, Li Guoyao left all his technical units in the city except the cavalry. These technical units had dozens of light and heavy machine guns in total, as well as twelve terrifyingly powerful anti-aircraft machine guns and two  More than a dozen mortars.

    The power of the simultaneous fire was extremely terrifying. The first round of the Japanese attack at the North Gate was repulsed less than fifteen minutes after it started. When the six to seven hundred Japanese and puppet troops withdrew, less than one third of them were able to retreat.

    The tragic battle conditions on the front line shocked Sekigahara Roku. When he came to the front line to supervise the battle in person, he was horrified to discover that although the enemy army on the opposite side looked like a miscellaneous army, its combat effectiveness was extremely terrifying, especially the opponent's firepower.  , that Jedi surpassed the average national army, and even failed to make more concessions than the Type-A division of the Imperial Japanese Army.

    But even so, Sekihara Roku never thought of retreating. The strength of the defenders aroused his fighting spirit. Then, under Sekihara Roku's personal order, the remaining thousands of troops at the north gate were pressed forward and fought against each other.  More than a thousand Japanese and puppet troops at the south gate attacked the defenders in the city together.

    Just as the Japanese army was frantically attacking the city, in a dense forest a few kilometers northwest of Shen County, more than 2,500 elite Chinese troops had assembled and were waiting for Li Guoyao's final order.

    Listening to the fierce exchange of fire in the direction of Shenxian County, Li Guoyao felt calm, neither sad nor happy!

    He already knew the situation on the front line. The Japanese army had divided its troops. There were more than a thousand people in each of the north and south gates, which was exactly as he had guessed.

    The enemy is already in position, now it¡¯s their turn to perform!

    ??Looking at the watch, the Japs have been attacking for almost half an hour. Li ??Yao Yao immediately ordered Lu Zhanwu to organize his team immediately!

    Soon, the troops will be organized!

    Li Guoyao strode to the front of the team and said loudly: "Brothers, have you heard the sound of gunfire in the distance? That is the Japs attacking Shen County! They are divided into two groups and are arrogant. They want to capture Shen County.  All the defenders in the county were captured in one fell swoop. But what they didn¡¯t know was that the mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole was behind them. The troops in the city were just a bait we left for Gou Ri. The real trump card was us. I will take you with me next.  Fight back to Shen County, and attack the Japs from inside and outside with the county's defenders. My request is that the Japanese and puppet troops outside the city must be completely wiped out in this battle. Do you have confidence?"

    "Yes, yes, yes!!!" all the soldiers roared in unison, the sound was loud!

    Li Guoyao nodded with satisfaction, and then said again: "Brothers, this battle is related to the situation of the entire Shandong Province. If we win this battle, we are invincible in Shandong Province. The next step is for us to sweep through all counties and districts in Shandong Province. If  If we lose, we will have a hard time in the future, and we will be hunted down by the little devils!"

    "But I believe that brothers will not let me down, because you are the best fighters in the whole of China. A mere two thousand days of puppet troops is just enough to fill the gap between our teeth, don't you think so!"

    "Yes Yes Yes!!!"

    "Listen to my order: The second brigade is commanded by Lu Zhanwu. Your troops go straight to the south gate and cooperate with the south gate troops to encircle and kill the Japanese troops outside the city!"

    "Yes, I promise to complete the task!"

    "The third brigade and the cavalry are under my command. Our mission is to penetrate directly into the north gate and attack the Japanese troops at the north gate with the defenders at the north gate!"

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "Immediately send a report to the defenders in the city and tell Hou Zhankui that when the troops outside the city arrive, ask them to rush out of the trenches immediately and launch a counterattack against the Japanese army. Let's give the little devils a central flower!"  "

    "yes!"

    "Everyone, take action!"

    ?¡­

    Outside Shenxian City, the Japanese troops have been fighting for almost an hour. Although the Sixth Division of Sekiyuan showed all their trump cards, they still failed to shake the defenders' position.

    Realizing that he had kicked the iron plate, Sekihara Roku knew that today's battle would not be easy. While reporting the situation to the 12th Army Headquarters, he ordered troops from nearby Dong'a and Yanggu to reinforce Shen County.

    Fortunately, these two places are not very far from Shen County, especially Yanggu, which is less than thirty kilometers away from Shen County. It takes less than an hour to reach such a short distance by car.

    In addition, Yanggu¡¯s troops have already been assembled and can go north at any time, so it would be most appropriate for them to reinforce Shen County.

    Then Sekihara Roku¡¯s telegram had just been sent out, when suddenly a rumble was heard from behind, followed by gunshots.

    Before Sekihara Roku could react, he saw his adjutant rushing into the temporary headquarters, and then said with a panicked face: "Your Excellency, the brigade commander, is not in good condition. We have found the ** cavalry behind us!"

    "Nani, behind you, are the **cavalry?"

    "Yes, Your Excellency, they are the ** Cavalry, you can't be wrong!" the adjutant said hurriedly.

    "How many enemy troops are there?"

    "I can't see clearly, but there should be no less than three or four hundred people!"

    Hearing that there were only three to four hundred people, Sekihara Roku breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Order the security forces to intercept immediately. They must intercept the opponent and prevent them from joining the Japanese army in the city!"

    "Your Excellency, if the security force is transferred, your safety will not be guaranteed. Please get in the car immediately and be ready to retreat at any time!" the adjutant suggested.

    Although Sekihara Roku wanted to get angry, he also knew that the adjutant was really worried about his safety, so he immediately suppressed his anger and said, "Yo Xi, convey the order!"

    But what Sekihara Roku didn¡¯t know was that there were a large number of infantrymen fighting behind these Chinese cavalry. The guard force he sent over was destined to be a meat bun and a dog, and they would never come back!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
