***************************************************************************

With a bang, fierce gunfire sounded. The vanguards in front had already exchanged fire with the enemy. There was not much time for Kitani to sigh and feel pain.

A small number of people were left to continue to rescue the wounded. Kitani led the troops to rush to aid, but he did not expect that a bigger nightmare was waiting for them.

Although Bo County and Luyi belong to the eastern Henan Plain and have small undulations, due to the winding cutting and changes of rivers and the southern spread of the Yellow River, the plains have been distributed intersectingly, with the characteristics of "large, flat and small uneven".

Kitani led his troops to the front and found that a squad's vanguard was blown by a mine and suffered heavy casualties. Two more were killed by the opponent's sniper, leaving only six intact Japanese soldiers, and were completely suppressed.

The opponent occupied a natural land and repaired simple fortifications, but the number of people seemed to be small, as if only a few dozen people were there.

Kitani first commanded the troops to launch and suppress them with firepower so that the beaten vanguard could retreat. He held the telescope and observed for a while, and the mine formation obviously left him with a psychological shadow, and he did not rush to order an attack.

Two 81 mortars, nine grenade launchers (a small team has a grenade launcher squad equipped with three grenade launchers), three heavy machine guns, nine light machine guns, and Kitani remeasures his own equipment. But this is basically useless because he doesn't understand the situation of the enemy opposite.

"The enemy is very cautious!" Liang Moqing was also using a telescope to observe the enemy situation in the distant cover, and smiled: "It seems that the mine array is afraid of the enemy and dare not act rashly anymore."

"What's the use of being cautious now?" A staff officer sneered: "Even if there is not a squadron, our army is sure to fight hard."

"If you can be smart, you don't need brute force." Liang Moqing pondered for a moment and said, "Fight according to the original plan and order the Dragon King Temple to feint attack."

…………………

The sound of cannons in the distance came, like a low thunder. The main hall of the Dragon King Temple was filled with a tense and depressing atmosphere. Everyone was silent and no one spoke.

When Guo Zhenru passed the telegram and the explosion from afar, and the gunshots knew that reinforcements were not far away, less than ten miles away, his heart became restless again, so he called everyone to discuss strategies. After he finished speaking, he observed everyone's expressions and captured the subtle expressions on everyone's faces.

Zhang Sanyou had already made arrangements at this time, so he was not in a hurry to speak, so as not to arouse Guo Zhenru's suspicion. He was like an experienced gambler, patiently waiting for the most confident opportunity to throw his last bet.

Guo Zhenru could see that the silence of the crowd was a manifestation of pessimism and negative psychology. He couldn't help but feel anxious and sweat was oozing out of his body. He understood that it was important to win people's hearts under the current situation and could not scold them like usual.

He tried his best to resist the impulse and said in a tone that almost begged: "Everyone, we are at a critical moment. This is not only related to my personal success or failure, but also to your wealth and life. We are brothers in distress, and there is nothing to be taboo. Just say anything." As he said that, he winked at his brother-in-law, the Chief of Staff of the Corps Zheng Shilun.

Zheng Shilun is an ignorant guy. He wants to write, and he cannot make plans, and he cannot get on the horse to rush. He only relied on Guo Zhenru to climb up to the position of Chief of Staff. Seeing Guo Zhenru's eyes, he immediately jumped out and shouted: "It's not a solution to stay here without food or drink. He should break out while the reinforcements are not far from us. Don't leave quickly on a sunny day, just wait for the rain to hit the head."

As soon as Zheng Shilun fired, several of his confidants also agreed.

"Now people are in panic, and the brothers are full of complaints behind their backs. If they continue, things will be even more difficult."

"There are many wounded soldiers, and they are not enough medicine. They squeezed into the corridor and cried and made a fuss, which made everyone in danger. If they drag on like this, their morale will be difficult to maintain."

"The reserves of ammunition are getting smaller and smaller. If you continue to stalemate like this and continue to increase your consumption, it will be even more difficult for him to deal with the enemy's large-scale attack."

When Zhang Sanyou heard them clamoring, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart, "Damn it, a group of sluts and a group of idiots, if you want to break through, you have to take the lead. It's so quarreling fiercely. Is there anyone who is not afraid of death?"

"I am incompetent, I have misled you all!" Guo Zhenru said, and she was sad and moved. "The past does not understand, and the coming can be pursued. Now, there is no need to blame the world. Only with one heart and one virtue, work together to open a path of life." He turned his eyes to Zhang Sanyou who was silent and said, "Old Zhang, what do you think of the breakthrough?"

"Breakthrough? Isn't this dangerous?" Zhang Sanyou said hesitantly: "Now there is only one bridge that can enter and exit. It is difficult to block a few machine guns. And if the breakthrough fails, it will cost a lot of casualties in vain and weaken the current garrison forces. This is very unfavorable for defending and waiting for aid!"

"Yes!" Yao Shouzu echoed, "The reinforcements are not far away. If they can defeat the enemy, they will naturally be able to break through our siege. If they can't come, wouldn't we break through the siege and die?"

Zheng Shilun followed up and said coldly: "Have you lost confidence in reinforcements? The Imperial Army has sufficient troops and cannons. How could the Second Route Army stop it?"

Yao Shouzu retorted: "It's not that I have lost confidence in the reinforcements, but that they have been delayed. After listening to the sound of gunfire, you have been watching the sound of gunfire for a long time, but there are signs of getting closer and closer?"

"It is precisely because the reinforcements encountered a small setback that we needed to attack from front and back and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop." Zheng Shilun defended: "The enemy's troops have basically been transferred to block reinforcements. Now is the time for the weak defense and the most certain time to break through."

"Faced with such an enemy, such a terrain, you can take the risk of breaking through and take a gamble, what are the confidences?" Yao Shouzu sneered.

"Faced with such enemies and terrain, it is certainly impossible to break hard." Guo Zhenru paused, lowered his eyes and fell into a brief meditation. His concentrated look made people feel that he was judging a plan that was not thoughtful, trying to make it more in line with the current situation and situation. After a while, he raised his eyes, glanced at everyone, and said inquiring: "In order to make it more confident, I think it would be better to select a general, lead an elite force to break out first, contact reinforcements, and then turn back to respond to this place. Look, what is this idea?"

Zheng Shilun and several officers immediately felt saved, showing a look of happiness and approval.

Zhang Sanyou frowned and looked at Yao Shouzu. Seeing that Yao Shouzu was thinking, he was silent.

Guo Zhenru continued: "You don't object, that's what you agree, who is willing to work hard?"

Zheng Shilun and several officers lowered their eyebrows and said nothing, and no one dared to take this risk.

Guo Zhenru looked at Zheng Shilun and several officers. They lowered their heads and did not dare to touch Guo Zhenru's fierce gaze. The entire hall fell into a tense and suppressed silence again. Guo Zhenru stared at her eyes in anger, but showed a helpless look.

Yao Shouzu suddenly raised his head as if he had figured out something, secretly winked at Zhang Sanyou, and then whispered to Guo Zhenru.

Zhang Sanyou was stunned for a moment, nodded slowly, and said in a low voice: "Sir, let me go!"

"Captain Zhang is brave and good at fighting, but he can take this position." Guo Zhenru immediately praised, and then pondered: "Take the deputy chief of staff again, and you will have all wise and brave generals, and there will be no problem in breaking through the siege."

Everyone took the order and prepared, and Zhang Sanyou and Yao Shouzu got together to plot together.

"What do you mean? It is obvious that the surname Guo wants us to work hard, and he stays here to enjoy the fruits of his life. Why do you want me to agree?" Zhang Sanyou asked with a little complaint.

Yao Shouzu smiled bitterly and said, "Can we hide? Brother, if you don't want to go, the one named Guo will accept your rights."

"Recruit my right? Humph, then I'll fight him to the death." Zhang Sanyou said viciously.

"That's not necessary." Yao Shouzu smiled sly, "Breakthrough may not be an opportunity. Think about it, as long as you break out, who will care about this mess? We will not contact reinforcements, nor will we take our lives back and drill into this cage, just take our men to create our own family business. This is called the sky is so high that the birds fly, and the sea is so wide that the fish leaps."

"It makes sense, it makes sense." Zhang Sanyou grinned for a while, and suddenly frowned, "Why don't you break out? Wouldn't you die in vain?"

"We hide behind us. If we can't rush out, we will retreat. Anyway, we are not the ones who die." Yao Shouzu said viciously.

There were not many people besieging the Dragon King Temple, only one main squadron, and part of the fourth detachment that had just been adapted from the Fifth Route Self-Defense Force, but several grenade launchers were facing the Dragon King Temple.

Easy to defend but difficult to attack? It seems that way, but the enemy is in a Jedi. Once the wooden bridge explodes, the road is broken, and the hunger is lost.

The squadron leader Lu Peng and his deputy Gao Rong squatted behind the fortification, blocking the sun with their hands and looking at the situation of the Dragon King Temple.

The clear sky was clear, without a star-long cloud-like wind, and the earth rose from the dry and hot air. Except for the occasional one or two cold guns, the entire front line of the Dragon King Temple was immersed in silence, as if all the sounds had stopped and condensed, waiting for the instant explosion.

"There is probably a war going on over there, but unfortunately we can't catch up." Lu Peng put down his hand with a little regret.

"I finally robbed the main attack mission, but all these puppet troops were cleaned up in an instant. But after changing the plan, we became besieged." Gao Rongli shook his head depressedly and looked at the river crossing equipment made behind him.

Lu Peng realized that his emotions might have affected his subordinates just now, so he changed his tone and gently patted Gao Rongli on the shoulder, "Now this enemy has become the devil's life card. If it is eliminated, the main force of the enemy will definitely retreat with all its strength. At that time, our blocking force was insufficient. How could we stop it and let them escape? It would be difficult to find such an opportunity in the future."
