"We just experienced a big battle and the troops haven't had time to rest. Isn't it too risky to attack the county now?”
Zhao Gang was shocked.
"Don't worry," Chen Liang said bluntly."After this battle, we have completely wiped out the main force of the Japanese puppet army in Ping 'an County.
Right now, there were not many defenders left in Ping An County. It was a great opportunity to counterattack and take down the county!”
"But even if we can take down the county, the enemy will definitely counterattack after they hear the news. At that time, I'm afraid we might not be able to hold on, right?" Zhao Gang said anxiously.”
"I don't intend to defend the county city to the death, at least not at this stage."
What I'm interested in is the money, food, and other military supplies that the devils have hoarded in Ping An City.
In addition, I also want to boost the morale of our Eighth Route Army and kill the arrogance of the Japanese!
Let them understand that this is the outcome for daring to invade my base!”
"Then should we ask the higher-ups?" Zhao Gang asked.”
Chen Liang said disapprovingly," We don't have a radio station, nor do we have a signalman who knows how to use a radio station. The division headquarters is hundreds of miles away from us. After we're done asking for instructions, the fighter aircraft will disappear.
Therefore, there's no need to ask for instructions. I'll bear all the consequences!
I'll hit Ping An! Take down the county town, wash the devils in blood, and take revenge for the comrades who died in battle!”
Seeing that Zhao Gang wanted to persuade him again, Chen Liang pulled him to the side and said,"Brother Zhao, you have to know that our base has been exposed.
Even if we don't take the opportunity to attack the county town, the enemy will come back sooner or later and encircle us again.
Therefore, I decided to seize the opportunity when the enemy's forces were empty to attack instead of defending and take the opportunity to attack the county.
As long as we take down Pingan County, not only can we boost the morale of the Eighth Route Army and our allies in the northwest of Shanxi.
It would also slow down the Japanese army's counterattack. After all, they had to gather food and ammunition, rebuild the destroyed fortifications.
All of this will take time, and we can use this time to establish ourselves in the Wang Fortress, Yang Family Village, and the surrounding villages.
They had to reclaim as much land as possible and plant more crops to store enough military rations to deal with the possible large-scale attack and full-scale blockade of the enemy.
In terms of tactics, the best defense is offense. We took down Ping 'an County City to fight for more breathing space for our base!
You can't always go against me, you have to support me!”
Zhao Gang nodded and looked at Chen Liang with a serious expression."Alright, I agree to attack the county, but I have a request.”
"Tell me, as long as I, Old Chen, can do it, I won't hesitate."”
"We can be considered life-and-death comrades. Can your brother stop calling me Committee Member Zhao in the future? Just call me Old Zhao!”Zhao Gang smiled.
"Hey, no problem!" Chen Liang smiled." You stay behind and clean up the battlefield and the mess. When I return from Pingan County, we can even become sworn brothers."”
Seeing that Zhao Gang didn't object, Wei Da Yong, Zhang Dabiao, and the others quickly gathered their troops.
Chen Liang stood on a military truck, his sharp gaze sweeping across the battalions that had just experienced the baptism of war.
Seeing the killing intent boiling in their eyes, he could not help but nod his head in relief and say,"Very good. It seems that you have all seen blood in this battle.
After killing someone, his aura became much stronger.
Since that's the case, let's strike while the iron is hot. I'll bring you guys to do something even bolder.
Attack Ping An County! Do you dare to go?"
"I dare!"
"I dare!"
"I dare!" Led by Tyrant, Dabiao, and the others, thousands of soldiers of the Independent Regiment shouted in unison.
"Alright, since the Japanese attacked our base, we'll attack their county!”
After saying this, Chen Liang immediately raised his arm and shouted,"Take down Peace City, kill all the Japanese, and take revenge for all the brothers who sacrificed themselves!”
"Take down Peace City! Kill all the Japanese!"
"Take down Peace City! Kill all the Japanese!"
"Take down Peace City! Kill all the Japanese!"
Nearly two thousand soldiers of the Independent Regiment echoed in unison again.
A huge sound wave gathered together, deafening the deaf and soaring into the clouds.
Everyone's blood boiled instantly, and their fighting spirit soared.
Seeing that the morale was almost boosted, Chen Liang waved his hand forward and said,""Everyone, target Peace City. Advance at full speed!”
After saying that, he took the lead and jumped off the military truck, rushing towards Ping 'an County.
Due to the continuous march, the Independent Regiment's fuel reserves had been exhausted, so these military trucks could not participate in the operation for the time being.
Fortunately, the morale of the entire regiment was high. They followed Chen Liang regardless of fatigue and embarked on the journey to attack Ping 'an.
Zhao Gang led the air defense and logistics battalions, as well as the remaining captives, to clean up the battlefield.
Chen Liang's judgment was right. At this moment, there were less than a hundred old and weak soldiers of the Japanese left in Pingan County.
Whether it was firepower or equipment, they were no match for the independent regiment that was fully equipped with American equipment.
Especially after the Independent Regiment had attacked the prisoner of war camp, encircled the Black Cloud Stronghold, and fought the Wang Fortress.
The recruits grew up quickly, and their tactical cooperation with the veterans became more skillful.
It greatly increased the overall combat strength of the independent regiment.
Chen Liang led his troops and traveled quickly.
In the end, they arrived at Ping An City at 9:30 pm.
In order to prevent the Japanese from being on guard, he did not give them the chance to mobilize reinforcements.
Chen Liang did not even give his subordinates a short break.
He immediately commanded his troops to launch an attack on Pingan County. In order to complete the task in one go, he surrounded and wiped out all the Japanese in Pingan County.
He divided his troops into four groups, led by Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan, and Wei Dayong. They attacked Ping An City from four directions at the same time.
Because of the cover of the night, and because the Independent Regiment moved too quickly,
Therefore, the moment the Independent Regiment attacked, the Japanese did not sense any danger.
After the battle began, the remaining Japanese troops, which numbered less than a hundred, were completely helpless against the thousands of attacking troops equipped with American weapons.
In less than 15 minutes, the various units of the Independent Regiment easily broke through the city defense of the Japanese and easily entered the city.
Nearly a hundred Japanese soldiers were quickly wiped out by the Independent Regiment near the city wall.
Chen Liang stood on the street in the east of the city and looked at the Urban area shrouded in darkness. He ordered in a cold voice,"Pass on my order. All battalions will send out a portion of their forces to seal the four gates.
The 1st Battalion, 2nd Battalion, and 3rd Battalion headed straight for the Japanese and puppet army camps, as well as the various military warehouses in the city.
Guard Company, Scouting Company, search for Japanese and traitors in the city. No matter if they are Japanese citizens or businessmen, as long as they come from Japan, kill them all without mercy!”
