At the command center of the Japanese garrison brigade in Pingding County, the lieutenant stood inside with his head down, and his face was blushed by the squadron leader, but he could not say a word of rebuttal.

As a defeated general, if he does not even have the courage to take responsibility, the superior will definitely be particularly disappointed.

So no matter how the squadron leader scolded or said something bad, he had to endure it.

After almost ten minutes of enduring, he finally found a chance to speak. He looked at the squadron leader with a serious look on his face and asked for a fight: "Sir, please give me another chance and guarantee that all the guerrillas that attacked us would be killed."

"As long as a strengthening team and a company of the Imperial Army, Huyi can do it. Otherwise, if you don't have to order, Huyi will apologize directly to His Majesty the Emperor."

The squadron leader waved his hand and sighed and replied: "You should stop thinking about revenge for the time being."

"The main force was taken away by the brigade leader. There was only one infantry squadron left in such a large pacified county town. The strength was not enough. I just lost more than twenty imperial troops in your hands, which is even less enough now."

"From now on, all the garrisons in the county will be strengthened. Without my orders, no one can leave the city without authorization."

"As for the guerrillas who attacked our guerrillas today, let them live two more days first. When the captain returns victoriously, he will definitely send heavy troops to encircle and suppress them. It will not be too late to take revenge at that time!"

At the Japanese and puppet army stronghold in Zhangzhuang Town, three zigzag trenches advanced side by side and slowly digging towards the stronghold.

At ten o'clock in the evening, three trenches had been dug to less than seventy meters away from the stronghold.

In a group of three soldiers, they dig forward in turn to ensure that the trench can retreat five meters forward every hour.

Under the reflection of the bonfire, the three trenches are clearly visible.

At the front end of the trench, one or two guerrilla figures appeared from time to time, but they all flashed away, making it impossible for the soldiers in the artillery tower to lock them. They only saw shovels and shovels of soil thrown out of the trench and piled on the side close to the stronghold.

The captain stood on the roof of the cannon, his face was gloomy.

He can't wait any longer.

According to the current digging speed of the guerrillas, three offensive trenches can definitely be dug to the entrance of the stronghold before dawn.

At that time, they can take down the outer positions of the stronghold with one assault.

Without the position, the entire stronghold is left with artillery towers to guard.

Although it is very strong, it is isolated and helpless. If the guerrillas continue to shorten the attack distance by digging trenches, the artillery tower will not last long.

Decisively ordered: "Get a combat team of the Imperial Army and a platoon of the Imperial Army, divide the troops into three groups to break out of the stronghold, and kill the guerrillas who are digging trenches."

"The others all went to the artillery tower to cover them, suppressed the counterattack firepower of the guerrillas and covered the infantry assault."

"The assault troops must bring more grenades. When they approach, they will throw them into the trenches and blow up all the guerrillas inside."

"Go and prepare now, start the assault in ten minutes..."

During the daytime battle in the town, although the guerrillas lost many members, they seized a heavy machine gun, a mortar, and a crooked handgun.

In addition, Zhou Cheng already has four light machine guns, and the machine gun in his hand suddenly exceeded six, which can definitely be described as "luxury".

The only heavy machine gun stand is behind a trench in the middle. Two light machine guns are arranged on the left and right trenches, and they can shoot at any time to attack the Japanese and puppet troops that may rush out of the stronghold.

The team leader knew that the guerrillas were stronger than he had expected, and also knew that the machine gun firepower was far higher than the stronghold after they seized the heavy machine gun, but he could not think of any other way to destroy the trench that was constantly approaching the stronghold outside.

I can only take a gamble and hope that the next counterattack will succeed.

In order to make up for his insufficient machine gun firepower, he transferred all the remaining rifles at the stronghold to the artillery tower and used several riflesmen to stare at a light machine gun to suppress the opponent.

In his eyes, although the guerrillas have many machine guns, their training level is limited.

If the same machine gun is equipped with them, it would be great if it could exert 50% of its power.

The riflesmen who were transferred into the artillery tower themselves were all elites in a hundred battles and their marksmanship was very accurate.

Four or five veterans have a chance of winning against a machine gunner with little or no experience.

The gate of the stronghold was quietly opened by the Japanese, and no one was paid attention to under the cover of night.

More than forty Japanese and puppet troops, holding rifles and hung grenades around their waists, sneaked out of the stronghold like ghosts and touched them until twenty or thirty meters outside the stronghold before being exposed.

"The Japanese and puppet troops came out!" The guard post suddenly shouted.

Zhou Chengzheng was resting with his eyes half-squinted, and his eyes widened as soon as the sound of the warning whistle sounded. Regardless of whether the news was true or not, he stood up and started giving orders.

"The soldiers who dug the trench will retreat immediately, and the machine gunner will be on standby!"

After saying that, he picked up a pair of telescopes and looked at the battlefield.

This is a pair of low-magnification telescopes seized from the Donghui Town stronghold. Zhou Cheng doesn't like it, but it's better to have it than not.

With its help, you can vaguely see dozens of figure soldiers rushing towards the trench in three directions.

At this time, the soldier who was digging for consumption had received the retreat order, threw the tool into the trench, turned around and ran back.

When the Japanese and puppet troops were less than 30 meters away from the trench, their figures were completely exposed to Zhou Cheng. Many Japanese and puppet troops had already taken out grenades and threw them into the trench with force.

Fortunately, I pulled the trench-digging soldiers one step ahead, otherwise they would definitely die in the next grenade.

Zhou Cheng was not polite and ordered decisively: "Shoot all the light and heavy machine guns, kill all the Japanese and puppet troops who came out of the stronghold..."

After finishing, I thought of the dozen or sorrow troopers on standby and continued to order: "The grenade troopers are also joining the battle."

"The grenades are limited, so we need to save some effort. This time, five grenade launchers were fired, which was a tooth for a tooth, and also allowed the Japanese and puppet troops to taste the taste of the grenades."

The stronghold is visible outside, which not only facilitates the Japanese and puppet troops to shoot and kill offensive troops, but also facilitates the guerrillas to attack the stronghold counterattack troops.

A heavy machine gun and four light machine guns opened fire at the same time. The bullets fired were densely packed, covering the Japanese and puppet troops in an instant like it was raining. In the moment of firing, at least ten people fell down.

"Boom..."

The grenades thrown by the Japanese and puppet troops into the trench exploded, and their figures were illuminated more clearly in the splashing flames.

The captain of the squadron took a breath on the gun tower. He never expected that the guerrillas would fire five light and heavy machine guns as soon as they arrived. He knew they were ready at first glance.

Immediately ordered: "Machine gun, rifle, all shooting, cover commando retreat..."

"The guerrillas were prepared for a long time. The people in the trench must have retreated. No matter how many grenades were thrown over, it would be useless!"

Head-on shooting, the Japanese army also had artillery tower cover, and the five light and heavy machine guns of the guerrillas really couldn't beat dozens of elite riflemen.

Their shooting skills are so accurate. Even if the machine gunners are hidden in the dark and have a range of 150 meters, there are still many people who can hit a single shot.

The machine gunners were constantly hit and the machine gun was silent.

Zhou Cheng was heartbroken and quickly ordered: "All light and heavy machine guns were aimed at the artillery tower and fired. Even if the blind cat hit the mouse, I would still kill a few Japanese devils through the shooting hole."

"Riflemen and grenade launchers continue to attack the Japanese and puppet troops outside the base."
