Half of the Japanese and puppet defenders on the west tower were killed first, and the other half were also blown to pieces.

Not long after he reacted, the special operations battalion had already rushed into the city.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Japanese and puppet troops abandoned the west wall and retreated into the city to start street battles with the special operations battalion, fighting step by step in an attempt to delay the attack.

Wei Dayong was not in a hurry to attack the county town in depth. Instead, he sent a company along the city wall to attack the north gate and the south gate.

The defenders at the north gate and south gate were so panicked that they had to abandon the city wall and retreat to the city.

At least half of the defenders were shot dead by special operations battalions on their way to escape.

The soldiers of the special operations battalion took advantage of the situation and opened the north and south gates from the inside. Immediately, an overwhelming sound of shouting and charging was heard outside the city.

…

As the sun set in the west, more than ten riders in gray military uniforms rode on the road with their whips raised.

Upon entering the Shipan area, the head of the Eighth Route Army suddenly raised his whip, and more than ten cavalrymen immediately stopped abruptly.

This leader was the deputy brigade commander of the 386th Brigade in Korea who rushed to Yushe County.

The command post of the 386th Brigade was located not far from Guanshan Town. If he wanted to get to Yushe County as quickly as possible, he could only take this shortest road.

Those who came out of the battlefield were very sensitive to the smell of blood. They were moving against the wind, and across the far distance, Deputy Brigadier Han smelled a strong smell of blood.

"Xiao Zhao!" Deputy Brigadier Han called back.

"have!"

"Take two people to the front to conduct reconnaissance."

"yes."

"You two, follow me!"

"drive!"

The three warriors carried spears on their backs, mounted their horses, and headed forward along the road.

Deputy Brigadier Han took out his gun and waited there with a solemn expression. The guards behind him also took their guns off their backs.

After a while, Xiao Zhao came back on horseback, his face a little excited: "Report to the leader, we found many corpses of Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers five hundred meters ahead!"

"Go over and have a look."

Deputy Brigadier Han's expression changed, and he raised his whip and spurred his horse forward.

The further they walked, the stronger the smell of blood became. When they got closer, Deputy Brigadier Han reined in his horse and looked forward.

Countless corpses of Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers lay scattered on both sides of the road.

It’s all over the mountains and plains, it’s like an open-air slaughterhouse!

Hundreds of corpses were placed there, and the visual impact created by them made all the soldiers behind Deputy Brigadier Han widen their eyes.

Looking at this scene, Deputy Brigadier Han, who was experienced in many battles, could not help but shrink his pupils slightly!

This... was done by the independent group?

Deputy Brigadier Han's throat couldn't help but roll.

Except for Li Yunlong's independent regiment, there are no other main forces of the Eighth Route Army nearby.

From the scene before us, it is easy to see that the Japanese and puppet troops dispatched at least a thousand people in an attempt to reinforce the Baijin Railway.

But here they were ambushed by the Independent Regiment. Several hundred Japanese troops and hundreds of puppet troops were almost completely wiped out by the Independent Regiment!

Now, Deputy Brigadier Han is almost 100% sure that Li Yunlong is leading the independent regiment to attack Yushe County.

Deputy Brigadier Han didn't know whether to be happy or cry for a moment.

Li Yunlong is an expert at leading troops in battles. In more than half a year, he turned a basic regiment with no morale and lack of everything into the absolute ace main regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

With just one regiment, they could wipe out thousands of enemies in such a short period of time and still have enough energy left to attack the county town.

It is almost impossible to randomly pick out a main force group from the Eighth Route Army, except for the headquarters special agent group.

But even such a regimental leader gave Brigadier Chen, Deputy Brigadier Han, and even Commander Liu a big headache.

Deputy Brigadier Han thought to himself, Li Yunlong was so stupid that he didn't even ask for instructions and just went about his business.

With more than 2,000 people in your regiment, is it enough strength?

"drive!"

Then, Deputy Brigadier Han whipped his horse whip backwards, and the horse galloped towards Yushe County, followed closely by the guards behind.

…

To the northeast of Yushe County, an Eighth Route Army team of more than thirty people was also marching in a hurry.

They were a medical team and a telecommunications team sent by the Eighth Route Army headquarters to the Independent Regiment. They were led by Staff Officer Zhang.

Li Xiuling, Miao Zi and Cui Dimple, who were wearing Eighth Route Army uniforms, were also among them.

After Miao Zi and Li Xiuling were sent to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters Hospital, they were both selected to study at the Taihang Military Region School.

Li Xiuling is now a nurse at the Eighth Route Army Headquarters Hospital.

Cui Dimple already knew some medical skills, and after training he became a surgeon at the Eighth Route Army Headquarters Hospital.

After hearing that the headquarters would send a medical team to support the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment, Li Xiuling and Cui Dimple signed up without hesitation.

However, Miao Zi was very talented in memory and had strong learning ability. After studying and training, he entered the Telecommunications Section of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters and became a transmitter.

Li Xiuling, dressed in the Eighth Route Army uniform, showed her heroic appearance.

Miao Zi also completed the counterattack of the Anti-Japanese War version of the "Diao Si Girl". She looked very smart and capable, as if she had been reborn.

…

Yushe County.

The four city gates in the east, west, south and north were successively attacked by independent regiments.

But the fight continues.

The Japanese and puppet troops used every house and every street to fight and try to delay.

The independent regiment's military superiority could not be exploited and they could only engage in street fighting with the Japanese.

The Japanese were retreating steadily under the fierce offensive from all sides by the independent regiment.

In particular, the submachine guns of the special operations battalion have demonstrated their advantages in fighting in narrow terrain.

The enemy's 38-gauge bolt-action rifle is completely incomparable with the firepower of a submachine gun. The enemy often only fires one shot, and the next moment it is smashed into a sieve by dense bullets.

More than 40 remnants of the Japanese army retreated into Yushe Middle School, which was the Japanese army headquarters.

Yushe Middle School is the last stronghold of the Japanese army, and its fortifications are extremely abnormal.

Fujimoto not only built eight fortresses for defense, but also transformed all the surrounding ravines into artificial cliffs of 10 to 30 meters, with multiple barbed wire fences erected on them.

This formed a complete position system consisting of city walls, trenches, steep walls and bunkers.

Although Fujimoto was killed by a thunder cannon on the city wall, the remaining Japanese troops relied on the fortifications to resist tenaciously.

The various attacking troops of the Independent Regiment, with four battalions numbering close to 2,000 men, surrounded Yushe Middle School.

The enemy defenders were locked in a battle, forming a dense firepower network. Two attacks by the blasters were frustrated, resulting in heavy casualties for a while.

Looking at this scene, Li Yunlong yelled: "Where's the artillery? Pull up the mountain cannon for me. Damn it, I want to see if this broken bunker can withstand a few of my cannons. Give it a shot!"

The commanders and fighters of the independent regiment also stared closely at the Japanese command headquarters from all directions.

With just this last tremor, the county seat of Yushe was captured!

The artillerymen pulled up two Type 94 mountain cannons, two Type 92 infantry cannons, and one Shanxi orogenic cannon.
Chapter completed!
