At the Sanchakou, the third battalion's attack on the Japanese continued. Because the Japanese were hiding underground, the soldiers needed to carefully find the entrance to the tunnel in the ruins to release smoke at the Japanese.

On the mountain road to the south, the security team heading south to Licheng had already left the boss for a distance.

Hu Yizhou did not take a car this time, but gave the car he brought to three rocket launchers.

As for them, they followed the soldiers and rushed on their way, and they personally brought their own equipment. Su Laoliu and others protected Hu Yizhou closely, followed by the soldiers from the communication squad and the ammunition squad to protect him.

Master Dao also followed, walked behind Hu Yizhou, and looked around vigilantly.

On the mountain road, the security regiment fought a long marching force, but there were only three trucks pulling rocket launchers, and the rest were either infantry or baggage troops pulling animals.

This time, Hu Jin still walked in front with a special operations platoon, followed by a company of guards who had replenished ammunition and had three days of supplies.

Behind them was the first gun company marching hula. They also added a base of shells, all of which were pulled in the carriage or carried by the soldiers.

The team of the replenishment battalion was walking in the middle, and they also replenished their ammunition and took the opportunity to have a hot meal, which was just enough physical strength.

The soldiers of the Fourth Company of the Cannon were also the ones who had a hot meal with them. This time they walked at the end and protected a team of baggage soldiers from the Third Battalion carrying ammunition supplies.

Well, the Fourth Cannon Company and the Supply Battalion did not run north in vain, at least replenished ammunition at the Sanchakou, and also ate a hot meal made with a lot of meat. They had not had a good meal these days, and this meal was enough to wipe out the fatigue of the soldiers for days.

"Confidentialist, please find a place to send a telegram to your superiors, saying that our regiment commander has led the team down to Licheng in person, and must send it in a mess! Also, send a telegram to the comrades who are fighting Licheng in the south, telling them that we have brought heavy firepower to support them!"

In the team of the supplementary battalion, Liu Gan called the confidential officer assigned by his superiors to him and asked him to send a telegram to his superiors to report. After all, Hu Yizhou is too important, so he needs to report it.

"Yes!" The confidential officer accepted the order and hurried to find a place to send a telegram.

Hu Yizhou also saw Liu Gan's actions from afar, but he did not stop them. Hu Yizhou understood everything under the command of the command.

Although the trip to Licheng this time is a heavy task for the security team, it is always good to report it.

Just when the security regiment was ambushing again and attacking again, in Licheng, the Eighth Route Army also began to attack the Japanese defending the city.

They only launched the attack when they received the successful ambush of the Japanese reinforcements by Liu Gan. It has been several hours since then, but they have never taken down Licheng.

Even the gate of Licheng has not been taken down yet.

This is not because the Eighth Route Army has poor combat effectiveness, but because the Eighth Route Army needs to divide a regiment to guard Zhaodian, guarding against the large forces of the 36th Division in Lucheng to cross the river to reinforce Licheng. At the same time, the regiment will also send a battalion to block the west gate of Licheng, and only one main force will launch an attack on Licheng.

Of course, the Zhaodian wooden bridge was destroyed again at this time, with only the piers left on the river surface, and the rest were burned...

"One row, get on! Machine gun cover!" Outside the north gate of Licheng, Captain Cheng, who was called Cheng blind by our old Li, waved his hand, and a platoon soldier appeared behind the sandbag forensic work with three ladders and rushed towards the city gate.

On the ground more than 200 meters in front of the attacking team, there were already a hundred bodies of eighth-root soldiers standing upside down, all of whom were killed in the previous attack.

"Da da da...da da da..."

"Bangbang...bangbangbang..."

As soon as the attacking team left, the main group's light and heavy machine guns began to shoot at the Japanese city defense fortifications to cover the attacking team's advance.

"Jiuchi...boom..." Two mortar shells also hit the city gate tower, blowing away several Japanese soldiers guarding the city.

"You guys get on!" Seeing the attacking team running out more than ten meters, Captain Cheng asked another attack team to start attacking.

This attack team is much more interesting. They are not many, only five, but they work together to push a large cart. The cart is filled with several high sandbags, several quilts covered with water, and a layer of vertical wooden boards as support.

This is the earthen tank used by the Eighth Route Army to attack cities, and many books describe it.

But this is not the so-called earth tank that only adds quilts to water, it is a trick.

This kind of earthen tank made from several layers of sandbags can effectively prevent the Japanese 38th cover and crooked bullets, and the 92th level can also be more guarded, but it depends on luck.

Under the cover of his comrades, the attacking team approached the city gate of Licheng at an extremely fast speed, and the Japanese did not rush to fight back.

Seeing that it was less than 100 meters away from the city gate, a string of bullets suddenly appeared from the two bunkers outside the city gate and swept towards the attacking crowd. At the same time, three grenade launchers flew over from behind the city gate tower and landed on the earth tank.

"Gaga... Cece Ce... swish swish swish swish..." The 92nd and the crooked-handed bullets kept sweeping through the attacking team, taking away young lives. Even the Eighth Route Army behind them almost had full firepower to suppress and shoot the Japanese, they could not stop the sacrifice of possession.

"Boom...boom...boom..." Three explosions appeared around the earth tank, and then the earth tank stopped, and the soldiers pushing the cart fell into a pool of blood with injuries all over their bodies.

"Jiujiu...boom boom boom..." There were three more grenade launchers, and this time even the earth tank was blown up.

"Jiuchi...boom..." The mortars on the main team also fired revenge in time, but I don't know the effect.

"Let them retreat! Hurry!" Seeing that the earthen tank was destroyed, Captain Cheng knew that the attack had failed again. After no earthen tank approached, he used explosives to blow up the bunker, and then exploded the city gate. No matter how many people went up, they could only consume it in vain.

In siege battles, it is really not easy when there is no effective artillery fire. They often cost several times or even dozens of times of casualties.

Just like what Sun Tzu said: If you want to surround it ten times, attack it five times, fight it twice, fight it, divide it with the enemy, guard it with the fewer, and avoid it if you want to. That is the military strategy in the era of cold weapons. It is even worse now!
