Outside Jinzhong City, the Shouyang Garrison and the Yangquan Garrison Battalion of the National Salvation Army are preparing for the attack tonight.

The troops attacked all night last night, and although they failed to enter the county town, the results were very great. More than 4,000 Japanese and puppet troops in the city were almost killed, and only more than 2,000 people were left to continue fighting.

During the day today, although the Japanese sent a lot of planes to reinforce the county town and airdropped some ammunition supplies to the county town, no one or one soldiers were sent to the county town, which means that the number of troops in the city has not increased, at most, a few mortars were added through airdrop supplies.

Huang Hu, the captain of the Shouyang garrison team, was not worried at all about this possible change.

When the Japanese plane arrived over Jinzhong County, all the troops who attacked each night were hiding in the forest three kilometers away to sleep to replenish their energy.

After a daytime rest, each soldier was very energetic and had high morale.

As soon as we finished dinner, the request reports from various battalions and companies were delivered to our hands, and they all wanted to grab the main attack mission tonight.

In addition, Huang Hu also used more than ten hours of the day to transfer several artillery and more than 500 shells from the defense zone.

During the battle last night, the artillery company directly under the Shouyang garrison slashed the Japanese artillery units severely. During the battle in the second half of the night, the Shouyang garrison kept using artillery fire to suppress the Japanese and puppet troops, which resulted in the great results of killing more than 2,000 Japanese and puppet troops in the city in one night.

After transferring a few more artillery from the defense zone during the day, Huang Hu's siege artillery fire was stronger than last night, so the siege battle would naturally be much easier.

By eight o'clock in the evening, more than 2,000 troops had surrounded Jinzhong County.

All dozens of artillery were mounted more than 400 meters outside the city, and the shooting accuracy of more than a dozen artillery was increased by shortening the artillery distance.

On the East Gate Tower, less than 300 meters away from Huanghu, the captain of the Japanese sect also held a telescope and observed the movements of the National Rescue Army outside the city with a serious expression.

After feeling that the attacking positions outside the city felt that more and more gathered, he decisively ordered: "First hit two flares, make sure that the main forces of the National Salvation Army have all entered the positions, and find their artillery positions!"

"Hayi..." The subordinates on the side quickly received the order. In less than a minute, the scream of "Wuwu..." sounded over the city.

"Play..."

Two flares exploded one after another, instantly burning into two dazzling white lights, illuminating the battlefield like daylight.

Zhong Zuo's eyes were always on the attacking position of the National Salvation Army. Seeing the crowds of people in the trench, the gun barrels were stretched out on the edge of the trench, he immediately confirmed that the main force of the National Salvation Army had been in place.

While the white light generated by the burning of the flares had not yet been extinguished, Zhong Zuo continued to look behind the attacking position of the National Salvation Army and look for their artillery positions!

In the end, he really found it.

Mortars can hide in bunkers and shoot in the air. Mountain field cannons and infantry cannons that can be shot directly are not good. They are very conspicuous no matter where they are installed. Zhongzuo first finds a few mountain cannons and uses them to determine the specific location of the artillery position of the National Salvation Army.

"Sir, the infantry and artillery of the National Salvation Army who attacked us have all been in place. Can we fight now?" A captain was very anxious to remind him.

In the battle last night, the captain's troops were almost completely wiped out by the National Rescue Army, leaving only a dozen people, including him, who became a completely bare commander, so it is not an exaggeration to describe his hatred for the National Rescue Army.

If it weren't for the limited strength of the garrison, he would have wanted to lead his troops out of the county town now and fight a war with the national rescue army face to face, and revenge and revenge...

After learning that the military headquarters had sent a batch of poison gas bombs and allowed the garrison to use poison gas bombs to deal with the National Salvation Army, the captain was very excited and felt that his chance to take revenge had come.

As soon as the sky was dark, I waited for the National Salvation Army to visit Jinzhong County again, hoping to witness the National Salvation Army being massacred by poisonous gas bombs.

Seeing that the main forces of the National Salvation Army were all included in the coverage of poison gas bombs, the team was still very concentrated, and there was no wind outside the county town. It was the best time to attack them with poison gas bombs, so I quickly reminded the captain.

Zhongzuo also recognized the proposal of his subordinates and immediately ordered: "Two cannons were divided into targets at the artillery positions of the National Salvation Army, and all other cannons were aimed at their attacking positions. After three minutes, all the cannons would use their fastest rate of fire to shoot out the poisonous gas bombs!"

"If we want to increase the lethality of poison gas bombs, we must let the poison gas spread to more places while the National Rescue Army is not prepared, which means we must fire out more poison gas bombs in the shortest time!"

At the same time, the Shouyang Guard Brigade was also making final preparations for tonight's offense.

Huang Hu held up a telescope to observe the city, looking for a breakthrough, hoping that the troops would enter the county town in the first half of the night.

"Captain, the second battalion commander called to report that they were ready for attack. They must nail the Japanese and puppet troops in the South Gate to there!" The Chief of Staff hurriedly ran over to report.

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone ringing behind him rang again.

The chief of staff quickly walked over and grabbed the microphone, put it down after a minute, and answered the report next to Huang Hu: "Captain, the phone number was called by the first battalion of the Yangquan Garrison, and they are also ready to attack!"

After receiving the news that the Third Battalion was also ready for the offensive, Huang Hu immediately asked his most concerned question: "Where is the artillery? Can we take down Jinzhong County tonight? Artillery is the well-deserved protagonist."

"If they fight well, we can conquer Jinzhong at the minimum cost."

The Chief of Staff nodded quickly: "Everything is ready. The shooting officers had calculated it last night to ensure that the starter hits, and at least more than 60% of the shells hit the city!"

After hearing this, Huang Hu's face became very serious and took a deep breath to order: "It's past 8:00 and we will launch an attack in five minutes!"

Time passed in seconds, and the last two minutes before the general attack, a few cannons suddenly rang out on the front of the city, and then Huang Hu heard a scream.

What he didn't understand was that the screaming ended and the shells were about to hit the offensive position, but there was no explosion around him.

"It's a dud!" Huang Hu subconsciously made a judgment and shouted.

"The Japanese are so arrogant that they dare to take the initiative... Let's attack in advance, and the artillery fire immediately..."

The gun firers had already adjusted their guns. After receiving the firing order, the gunner only needed to stuff the shells into the barrel!

As soon as Huang Hu's order was released, less than five seconds later, a "rumbling..." sound of cannons came from the artillery position, and then more than a dozen flames rose from the city not far away.

Huang Hu was very satisfied with the reaction of the artillery troops, but before he could have time to be happy, a terrified exclaim suddenly rang behind him: "Poison gas bomb... Captain, the Japanese fired poison gas bombs into our position again!"

"Poison gas bomb..." When Huang Hu just heard these three words, he had not yet reacted.

It was not until the communication soldiers rushed to him with fear on their faces that he suddenly realized: "You said the Japanese were firing poisonous gas bombs at us?"

"It's a poison gas bomb. At least three poison gas bombs hit our company's position just now!" The correspondent quickly reported!
