"Haha! Yan Baichuan was at his wit's end! They actually placed their hopes on these security forces! Humph! With just these security forces, you think you can stop our Pingyuan Army's attack?”
Han Ling was standing at the foot of the city wall of Shanyin County. He looked at the security guards standing on the wall and couldn't help but chuckle.
If he had transferred the elite troops of the Jinsui Army, they would have been able to hold him off for a while.
However, these security forces were temporarily put together.
There were too many questions.
The command was not unified, the weapons were uneven, and the coordination was even worse.
Shanyin County would be attacked by the 4th and 5th regiments. I won't let go of such a good opportunity to train my troops!”
Han Ling ordered after watching for a while.
"Yes, sir! Commander!"
The 4th and 5th regiments belonged to the human soldiers.
They were all new recruits now.
The only time they had seen blood was when they had attacked Da Tong City. They had cleaned up the battlefield and dealt with the corpses. That was all.
Now that they were in Shanyin County, these security forces were not strong.
It was just nice for the fourth and fifth groups to practice.
As for whether it would take more time.
Han Ling was not too worried.
He had calculated that even if Yan Baichuan brought back the elite troops from the southern front.
It would take at least five to six days to get here, and they had to be fast.
If he was a little slower, ten days would have passed in an instant.
This time was not like the future.
Within three days, they would reach all parts of the country.
The traffic was still very backward.
If Yan Baichuan wanted to bring back the elite troops from the front line, he would be missing ten to twenty thousand, or even thirty thousand. If he came back, it would be as good as sending food to them.
En! Han Ling thought that Yan Baichuan would have transferred 20,000 to 30,000 troops back.
However, Yan Baichuan had overestimated his elite troops, or perhaps he had not truly recognized the combat strength of the Pingyuan Army. He had only brought back an elite infantry division of 14,000 soldiers.
......................................
On June 2, 1930, when Lu Yinglin's 44th Division was rushing to Shanxi from the front line of the Jinpu railway.
The 4th and 5th Regiments of the Pingyuan Army had already begun to attack the city.
The 6th, 7th and 8th Infantry Regiment also rushed to Ying County.
....
"Boom ~"
"Boom ~"
"Da ~"
The 75mm field cannons, mortars, and other artillery were all firing non-stop. The only ones that did not fire were the heavy artillery regiment!
Under the suppression of the cannons, the soldiers of the 4th and 5th regiments began to carefully attack Shanyin County.
Han Ling was in the command center behind the half-underground bunker, constantly watching with his binoculars.
In the end, he was still worried about the 4th Regiment and 5th Regiment.
Although Han Ling had asked them to attack together, they still lacked confidence.
Even though the security forces of the Jinsui Army were suppressed to the point that they could not raise their heads, their attack speed was still not fast.
Looking at the soldiers, they seemed to be a little afraid.
Han Ling could not help but shake his head.
No wonder people said that no matter how well trained a troop was, they could not be called elites if they had not been baptized by the flames of war.
In his previous life, he had thought that this was nonsense, but now he had seen it for himself.
Only then could he truly feel the meaning of this sentence.
"Send an order to the 4th and 5th regiments. They must take down the north gate of Shanyin County before 3pm today!”
"Yes, sir!"
In order to let these brats get the greatest training, Han Ling even gave such an order. It seemed that he was indeed not satisfied with these new recruits.
...............................
Zhao Tiezhu held a rifle in his hand and slowly approached the city wall.
After he came out of the recruit camp, because of his outstanding performance in the new camp, he was promoted to a company commander.
He was now the company commander of the 4th regiment, 1st battalion, 1st company.
There weren't many people like him who were promoted.
Not all the soldiers in these two regiments were human soldiers.
It was also filled with a portion of cloned soldiers.
Most of the low-level officers were also cloned soldiers.
..........
"The commander has ordered that we must take down the north gate before three o'clock this afternoon!”
Just as Zhao Tiezhu was cautiously approaching the city wall, the voice of their Battalion Commander came from behind.
"Brothers! Attack! Don't let the marshal down!"
Zhao Tiezhu heard the Battalion Commander's voice and gritted his teeth as he shouted.
Under the lead of the cloned soldiers, the soldiers began to slowly quicken their pace.
It had to be said that the clone soldiers were still very useful.
Originally, these new recruits had a sense of fear in their hearts.
However, when he saw the calm expressions on the clone soldiers 'faces, he gritted his teeth and followed their footsteps to launch an attack.
"Bang ~"
"Bang ~"
"Bang ~"
As Zhao Tiezhu and the others slowly approached the city wall, the Jinsui Army security soldiers on the city wall were forced to stand up by their own officers and start shooting.
Bullets were fired at Zhao Tiezhu and the others.
Following that, the soldiers of the 4th and 5th regiments also started to fight back.
Not long after the two sides exchanged fire, the security forces of the Jinsui Army once again hid behind the city wall because of the sudden increase in casualties.
No matter how hard the officers whipped them, they would not come out to resist.
Actually, this was how it was.
The fighting spirit of these security forces soldiers was not good to begin with.
Their usual training was much worse than a regular army, and their weapons and equipment were even worse.
If it wasn't for the officer's whip, they wouldn't have popped their heads out to shoot.
Right now, all they could think about was how to survive.
The officers didn't dare to go overboard.
If the soldiers were to mutiny at this time, it would be a big problem.
................
"Boom ~"
With a loud explosion, the north gate of Shanyin County was blown up.
Han Ling, who was watching everything through the telescope in the command post, finally smiled.
It was eleven o'clock in the morning, and they had not disappointed him.
As the city gate was destroyed, the soldiers of the 4th and 5th regiments were jolted awake. They immediately roared and charged into the city.
Countless soldiers began to pour into Shanyin County.
The field artillery and mortars also stopped firing.
The security guards of the Jinsui Army who were hiding on the city wall finally let out a sigh of relief.
"I can finally survive!"
This was what all the security guards thought.
