And on the other hand, Zhou Guoquan is also watching the actions of the Japs in Liuzhaigou with a wait-and-see attitude. He is relatively close to Fangzheng County. If there is any emergency, Zhou Guoquan will naturally rush to support as soon as possible. Although Zhou Guoquan doesn't want to get involved, but now he has an ally relationship with Hutou Village. He is a grasshopper tied to a rope. Since Hutou Village has already taken action, it is not good for him to stay out of it, at least. He would pretend to be in front of Shi Yang.
When the first artillery shell fell in the Fangzheng County area, the battle finally started. Fortunately, last night, Luo Hu and some officials in Fangzheng County evacuated the people in the county urgently, but due to time constraints. Only the old, weak, sick and pregnant people in the county were evacuated. Others who were relatively strong were ordered to hide temporarily. In an emergency, they may be asked to participate in the battle. Sun Zhiyu and others were also hidden among these people. among.
"Brothers, hold on. You must not let the little devils come in. The reinforcements will arrive soon. Then we don't have to be afraid of these little devils." The war just broke out. Luo Hu led his security team A large number of people guarded the gate tower of Fangzheng County.
Since it is just a security group, the combat quality of its weapons, equipment and personnel is not as good as that of a regular army. It is naturally very difficult to fight against the Japs. But relying on one's own side is just defense. The Japs will not be able to advance for a while. Lai. Luo Hu's idea is that as long as he and others persist until reinforcements arrive, then all problems can be solved smoothly.
Boom. Boom.
The little devil seemed to want to use cannonballs to blow open the gatehouse of Fangzheng County. The cannonballs fell mercilessly on the wall of the gatehouse of Fangzheng County. But Luo Hu could just watch and endure it, letting his brothers He was well concealed. He would wait until the Japs came to attack and vent his anger. Other than that, he had no other choice...
"Young devil, I'm your grandma. If you have the guts, come and kill him. Keep using the cannon to plan something." Luo Hu lay on the gate tower and shouted to the young devils in the distance.
It was as if Luo Hu's insignificant cry was heard in the rumbling artillery fire. The Japanese artillery fire actually gradually stopped. And the vanguard of the Japanese army also began to advance towards Fangzheng County.
"Brothers, cheer me up. The little devil is here. Don't be polite for a while. Give me a hard hit with all your strength." Luo Hu, who thought his words really had an effect, faced me. The brothers below shouted. At the same time, they stared at the Japanese soldiers who were slowly approaching them.
Two hundred meters...
One hundred and fifty meters...
One hundred meters...
"Fight." After the little devil entered the effective shooting range of himself and others, Luo Hu finally gave the order to attack to his brothers. At the same time, the vanguard of the little devil also thought about Luo Hu and others on the gate tower. Launched an attack.
Bang. Bang. Ta-ta-ta... Boom. The Japs even used grenades. The shelling just now had already caused some losses to Luo Hu's security group. Moreover, the weapons and equipment were not at all the same as those of the Japs. At the same level, it is quite difficult to fight now. But Luo Hu still leads his brothers to fight. They can only fight to the death because there are so many ordinary people behind them.
Luo Hu also thought about it. Usually his son was domineering in the county town. Today he would just compensate the common people for his son.
"Damn it, why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet? I really want a security group like mine to withstand the attack of a regiment of little Japs." At the same time, Luo Hu was still looking forward to the early arrival of the reinforcements.
The battle continued. However, the reinforcements Luo Hu had been waiting for had not yet arrived. The pressure on the security group was also increasing. The number of casualties also continued to increase.
"Captain, sooner or later you will be defeated if this continues. Just think of a way..." A battalion commander under Luo Hu ran to Luo Hu and said anxiously. The battle had lasted for five or six hours. His One battalion has been beaten down to half its strength.
"What the hell can I do now? Tell the brothers to hold on. It's almost dark now. As long as you hold on until dark, the kid's attacks will stop..." Luo Hu said to his subordinate The battalion commander cursed. He was extremely anxious now, but there was nothing he could do. It seemed that the reinforcements would not be able to arrive in a while. He could only hope that the security team could hold on until dark. It can give you and others a chance to breathe and buy time for reinforcements to arrive.
"Yes." The battalion commander could only grit his teeth and retreat. He and his brothers continued to stick to their posts.
"Commander Luo, please give us a gun. We will fight the Japanese with you." Not long after the battalion commander pushed him down, some young and strong youths in Fangzheng County spontaneously organized into a team. When he arrived at the gatehouse, he asked Luo Hu to join the battle.
"Okay. You are all good. I, Luo Hu, did do something wrong in the past. As long as I can survive this time safely, I, Luo Hu, will definitely come to apologize to everyone." Looking at the young people in front of me, they organized themselves. Luo Hu's eyes were a little wet. Although he knew in his heart that they did not come to fight for his own sake, but for the people of Fangzheng County. But no matter what, he Luo Hu was here I have recorded this feeling in my heart.
"Come here, give each of these brothers a gun." Although he was a little moved in his heart, now was not the time to be pretentious. He ordered to a subordinate next to him, and then rushed to his fighting position again. Take command of the battle.
Although the young people in that business have not received training, with their participation, the situation of Fangzheng County has improved. Although the effect is not very obvious, it also gives Luo Hu hope. If he continues like this, he will persist until the end of the day. Black should be no problem.
The sky gradually darkened. The firepower output of both sides also gradually weakened. After another shelling, the Japs finally withdrew. Luo Hu leaned on the wall of the gate tower and let out a long breath. Today Finally got over it.
"Count the casualties..." After a brief rest, Luo Hu took out a pack of wrinkled cigarettes from his pocket, held it in his mouth, lit it and ordered to his battalion commander.
But when the casualty statistics came out, Luo Hu was no longer in the mood to smoke. Although his security team was not fully staffed, there were more than 2,000 people. But now that the statistics are out, the entire security team can Less than 1,200 people participated in the battle again. In today's battle alone, his side lost nearly 1,000 people. Luo Hu really didn't know if the reinforcements could not arrive tonight. How should I fight tomorrow's battle?
"Send the wounded to the hospital quickly for treatment. The remaining brothers of the security team should monitor the movements of the Japs as a company. The remaining people will rest immediately. But be ready to fight at any time." Luo Hu said to his hands The brothers below ordered.
Although he felt a little helpless, Luo Hu did not show it because he knew that he was now the pillar of Fangzheng County. If even he showed any bad emotions, then maybe the entire Fangzheng County would be in chaos. Regarding those officials, big and small, who only know how to shout and drink, Fangzheng County has long been delivered to the hands of the little devils.
At the same time, Shi Yang also learned about the entire process of today's war in Fangzheng County in Hutou Village. He also learned about the troops that were reinforcing Fangzheng County through the news brought back by the special forces team members who sent people to check the situation. Case.
The news we got was that the reinforcements had been intercepted by another force of the Little Japs. That’s why they couldn’t come over today. And it looked like, let alone one day, even if they were given three days. It was also impossible to rush to Fangzheng County to provide support to Luo Hu.
After getting the news, Shi Yang immediately organized the people from Hutou Village and rushed to Fangzheng County overnight. It would take more than a day to rush from Hutou Village to Fangzheng County with all his strength. Obviously, the time would not be enough to catch up with the Japanese attack tomorrow. Second attack.
Now Shi Yang can only place his hope on Zhou Guoquan. I hope that at this time, he will not calculate the little Jiujiu in his heart. If he denies responsibility, Shi Yang will not let him get any benefits from him in the future. Even more so. Shi Yang may use means to annex his Liuzhai Valley. It all depends on where Zhou Guoquan will go tomorrow.
However, Shi Yang did not bring all the brothers from Hutou Village with him this time. The two brothers Zhang Wen and Zhang Wu, together with Guo Peng and others, were left behind by Shi Yang in Hutou Village. The three brothers of the Xie family had long been arranged by Shi Yang Go out and block the escape route of the little devil.
The only ones Shi Yang came out this time were Jiang Zizi, his former subordinates and another bandit leader named Lin Cheng. In total, he brought more than a thousand people with him. But these more than a thousand people were all Shi Yang's elite They were carefully selected. In order to be able to make meritorious service and atone for his sins, Huzi also specifically asked Shi Yang for orders to go with Shi Yang. However, no matter how you look at this militant, he has no intention of making meritorious service and atonement. He just wanted to kill the little devil for fun. A little more posture.
When Shi Yang led everyone to Fangzheng County that night, Sun Zhiyu and the members of the Timberwolves were not idle either. Because Sun Zhiyu accidentally discovered an elite team hidden by the Japs in Fangzheng County. The security team was resting at night. At that time, they were preparing to take action against the security team. Looking behind them, they were almost catching up with the special forces led by Er Leng. It seemed that the little devil had really put a lot of effort into taking over Fangzheng County. Up there. But this time, unfortunately, they encountered the Timberwolves team led by Sun Zhiyu. So their plan could only be ruthlessly killed in the bud.
