At that time, Chen Ming discovered that Lingbi County was not a strategically important town, and the deployment of troops was very weak.
There is only one devil's military police brigade, more than 100 devils' military police, and more than 300 puppet troops.
As for Guzhen, because the Jinpu railway line passes through here, it has become a strategically important town that must be contested by military strategists.
The little devil has deployed more than a brigade of devils here, plus more than 2000 puppet troops, the total strength exceeds 4000.
And equipped with supporting defense facilities such as bunkers, gun towers and blockade ditches.
Four regardless of the first battle, although Wang Gui's troops successfully broke out, they suffered a loss of soldiers and generals, and lost more than a dozen mortars and infantry artillery they were carrying.
Only a few grenadiers remained.
In the case of contacting Xu Hailang's troops, with the current strength of their army, even if the entire army is wiped out, they may not be able to break through its city defenses.
Therefore, after some discussion, Chen Ming, Wang Gui, Sun Cheng and others decided to attack Lingbi first.
At that time, the nearest devil defender in Guzhen will definitely send troops to help.
Then they can lead their troops to set up an ambush in the middle, and in this way of encircling the points to fight for reinforcements, they can weaken the opponent's strength and reverse the unfavorable situation of being outnumbered.
Among them, Sun Cheng led more than 300 brothers from the heavy camp to attack Lingbi County.
Wang Gui and Chen Ming led the brothers from the cavalry battalion and artillery battalion to set up an ambush on the way.
"Brothers, although we are pretending to attack, we must give me enough momentum!"
It was night, after arriving at Lingbi City, Sun Cheng immediately led his troops to attack the county seat, and told his subordinates: "This battle depends on whether the Chief of Staff and Captain Chen can capture Gu Town. Don't save ammunition, give them all to me." Hit me hard!"
"Yes!"
More than 300 brothers from the supply battalion all agreed with a loud bang, and the next moment, they concentrated their firepower and began to shoot a large number of bullets at the puppet army on the top of the city.
Although the supply battalion is not a field force of the Huben Regiment, it is also equipped with the same weapons and equipment as other field battalions.
The brethren held all the eight-one automatic rifles in their hands. In addition, they were also equipped with Czech-style light machine guns of the same size as other main field battalions, and Vulcan Gatling heavy machine guns.
At this time, the firepower is fully fired.
Under the darkness of night, dazzling tongues of flame suddenly emerged.
"Da da da!"
"Da da da!"
"Da da da da da da da!——"
A large amount of dense heavy rain poured out, causing smoke and dust to rise above the city wall, and debris of bricks and stones fell down.
On the top of the city, under the lights and torches.
Many devils and puppet soldiers standing guard on duty were hit by the rain of bullets, screaming and falling down.
The group of second devils stationed in the county was originally composed of little devils who recruited local policemen and gangsters.
Surrendering to the Japanese army was just to survive and protect their own interests.
Therefore, they have no loyalty to Little Japan at all.
On weekdays, it's okay to bully unarmed, timid and kind-hearted ordinary people. How have you ever seen such a battle like this?
Especially in the dark night, I don't know how many enemy troops there are.
These two devils who had no faith at all, were beaten to death immediately, crying for their father and mother.
If it weren't for the fact that some devils' gendarmes raided the formation, constantly urging and threatening them to fire back, they would have turned around and fled off the city wall long ago.
Faced with the sudden attack, the devil gendarmes in the county town were also a little numb.
Under the repeated pleas of several puppet army officers, the captain of the Devil's Gendarmerie finally broke his heart and called Guzhen, dozens of miles away, for help.
When the devils in Guzhen heard that Lingbi had been attacked by the regular Chinese army, they immediately sent more than 500 devils and more than 1000 puppet troops to support.
"Chief of Staff, Captain Chen, the little devils from Guzhen are dispatched.
However, they sent at least 1000 troops, three to four times ours! "The scouts sent by Wang Gui and Chen Ming, after detecting the movements of the devils and the puppet army, hurried back to report to them.
At that time, Wang Gui and Chen Ming had just deployed the ambush troops, and they were discussing some details of the ambush.
After listening to the scout's report, Wang Gui's face changed slightly, and he said to Chen Ming: "Captain Chen, the enemy has dispatched far more troops than us, shall we cancel the ambush?"
"No need!" Chen Ming said calmly: "Although there are many devils, most of them are the vulnerable Imperial Association Army. As long as we defeat the few little devils in one fell swoop, those who have no faith at all will be defeated." The imperial association army is bound to disperse like birds and beasts.
At that time, we can take advantage of the chaos to cover up and kill them all! "
After a pause, Chen Ming said again: "Besides, the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark, and if we wait for work at ease, we will definitely be able to kill these little devils by surprise!
Even if it cannot be completely wiped out, it is not difficult to injure it severely! "
After Chen Ming finished speaking, Zhao Dequan, the commander of the cavalry battalion beside him, echoed with a serious face: "I completely agree with Captain Chen's opinion!
The combat mission given to us by the regiment is to take Guzhen and disrupt the deployment of the devils' troops to the north of the Huaihe River.
If you can't even take down this small group of enemy troops, how can we complete the task assigned to us by the regiment? "
"In that case, let's do it!"
Wang Gui is not the one who is afraid of things, he just thinks about things and is relatively comprehensive.
Since Chen Ming and Zhao Dequan insisted on fighting this battle, he quickly made up his mind.
The three main military officers unified their thinking and caliber, and began to command more than 400 soldiers, waiting for the little devil to enter the set.
About half an hour later, more than 1500 people from the little devils and puppet soldiers came in two parts.
More than 1000 puppet troops were all on foot, walking in front, and more than 500 devils were walking behind in a group of military trucks and side tricycles.
In order not to delay the trip, all the puppet troops marched forward.
After nearly an hour of continuous marching, these second devils who lacked exercise were already sweating profusely and complaining endlessly.
He kept panting heavily, almost no different from the tired big yellow dog in the village.
Because the troops were at an absolute disadvantage, Chen Ming and the others made a battle plan to let go of the puppet army first, and concentrate their firepower on the little devils behind.
After defeating the main force of the devils, they turned their guns to deal with the puppet army.
Therefore, when the puppet army rushed into the ambush circle first, the soldiers of the Huben regiment all held their breath and did not rush to act.
