    When the Japanese troops in Jiaodong, Lubei, and Luxi were restrained by the main regiments and local troops of other military regions, the Luzhong Military Region and the Binhai Navy Region also began to act, but they did not directly attack Yishui County and its surrounding areas.  Instead, first send troops to block all roads leading to Yishui, capture strategic points, and prepare to shut down the Japanese and puppet troops in the Yishui area.

    The 23rd Regiment of Binhai District and the 4th Regiment of Luzhong Military District each dispatched a battalion to attack Yinan Village, more than 100 miles south of Yishui County, with lightning speed. More than 100 soldiers stationed in Yinan Village  The puppet army knew that it could not resist the attacks of the two main battalions, so the company commander of the puppet army and the maintenance chairman came out and surrendered with a white flag before the battle started.

    ?  After taking Yinan Village without bloodshed, the 23rd Regiment and the Fourth Regiment each sent a battalion again. Together with the original attacking troops, two sniper positions were established overnight between Yinan Village and Yishui River, and they were completely closed.  It opened the gate of Lunan to Yinshui County.

    The remaining two battalions of the 23rd Regiment and the 4th Regiment were not idle either. With the cooperation of more than a thousand militiamen, they moved down the Yishui River with great fanfare in the direction of Linyi. Linyi was guarded by a Japanese infantry brigade plus  A dissatisfied puppet army, not even two thousand people, seeing those Tuba roads dare to appear so blatantly on the outskirts of the county, I thought they were going to attack Linyi, after all, it is not last year, those who used to be comparable to rabbits  After the Tuba Road was equipped with a large number of new weapons, they were very courageous, and there was nothing they dared not do. Therefore, as the highest commander in the city, the Japanese lieutenant officer, while asking for help from his superiors, also strictly ordered  Troops must not act rashly until they discover the real combat intention of the Eighth Route Army outside the city, especially the death-death thing like going out of the city to fight, let alone think about it.

    Unexpectedly, the Japanese army's move was exactly what the Eighth Route Army wanted.

    The gate to the south is closed, so of course the gate to the north cannot be let go. While the 23rd and 4th regiments were occupying Yinan Village, the 2nd regiment of the Luzhong Military Region and the 6th regiment of the Binhai area joined hands to control the village.  Mazhan Township, which entered the Yishui Road from the north, launched an attack.

    Although there is only one Japanese squadron and a puppet barracks stationed in Mazhan Town, which together have a strength of nearly a thousand troops, it has a solid city wall more than 5 meters high.  The straight-line distance of Yiyuan Village is only more than 200 miles, so the Japanese army built a complete fortification here. Outside each city wall, there is a stronghold composed of two four-story gun towers. The shooting range of each gun tower is 360 degrees.  , can form a cross-fire with the fortifications of the city wall. If the attacking troops attack the city wall, they will be strafed by the Type 92 heavy machine guns placed in the gun tower. If they attack the stronghold, they will be hit by other heavy machine guns and mortars on the city wall  The attack of the artillery, in short, will be covered by crossfire regardless of the attacking side.

    More importantly, these gun towers are all built with stone strips picked from the quarry in the town. Each stone strip is as thick as 30 centimeters, and even the thickness around the shooting holes is more than ten centimeters.  It's a mortar, even the 92-style marching bombardment at close range can't penetrate it.

    Therefore, the Japanese and puppet troops in the city did not panic in the slightest after the sudden appearance of the Eighth Route Army troops. Instead, under the order of the commander, Shao Zuo, they entered their respective defensive positions in an orderly manner, set up machine guns and mortars, and prepared to attack those daring Tuba Road troops.  Head on.

    Facts have proved that the defenders in the city are not blindly arrogant.  As the vanguard, the 1st Battalion of the Second Regiment and the 3rd Battalion of the Sixth Regiment launched an attack without waiting for the follow-up troops to arrive in order to achieve the surprise effect.  With the support of the soldiers, they approached Mazhan Town. When the soldiers were 500 meters away from the Japanese stronghold outside the city, the Japanese soldiers on the gun towers and walls opened fire, and the pouring bullets immediately formed a dense bullet net.  Shells from grenades and mortars continued to hit. Under such intensive firepower, dozens of soldiers were knocked down and injured by bullets and shells.

    These two companies are the sharp knife companies of each battalion. The soldiers are very stubborn. When they are attacked, the light and heavy machine guns of each company immediately return fire.  Gunner's shot.  When the enemy's firepower weakened, the soldiers, under the command of the company commander, rushed towards the gun tower in groups of three under the cover of smoke bombs.

    When they came to a position 200 meters away from the gun tower, the recoilless gun team and the rocket launcher opened fire immediately, and more than a dozen shells with tail flames shot towards the gun tower together.  The semi-automatic fighters also rushed forward.  This is the latest tactic of the Eighth Route Army to attack the artillery towers, so that even if there are surviving defenders in the artillery towers, the forward infantry can clear them all before they react.Although the turret built with stone strips can resist the attacks of recoilless guns and rockets, it is not much stronger than straw paper in front of 122mm howitzers.

    The 12 122mm howitzers belonging to the second and sixth regiments were dragged by the eight-ton king to a position 1.5 kilometers away from Mazhan Town, and then all the artillery lined up to shoot directly at the gun towers and city walls  .

    With a deep roar, 12 shells shot out of the muzzle together. Under the action of inertia, the high-explosive armor-piercing shell weighing more than 60 kilograms smashed a big hole in the wall of the blockhouse like chopsticks stabbing tofu.  Drilling into the interior, an explosion occurred. With a thunderous explosion, the solid gun towers and the Japanese and puppet troops inside were blown to pieces by high-explosive armor-piercing shells, and the rubble mixed with minced meat and blood was blasted into the air.  , and then rustled down.

    After killing the gun tower, those big guys didn't hold up their fire, and the shells kept hitting the city wall like raindrops.  During the 10-minute bombardment, one layer of the 5-meter-high city wall of Mazhan Town was completely cut off, and the Japanese and puppet troops on it, together with their weapons, were all blown back to the state of parts.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
