At noon, the team of the Independent Regiment had already appeared on the west bank of the Fen River.

Seeing thousands of Eighth Route Army coming over, they fired a few shots of the puppet troops from the old sect bridge, and turned around and fled into Shuiximen.

Outside the west gate of Taiyuan is the Fen River.

The moat in the other three directions also leads to the Fen River water.

Three bridges were launched on the Fen River, and Shinozuka Yoshio did not order the bridge to be blown up for some reason.

Maybe it was because I thought that the main force of the 386th Brigade would come from Dongguan and Nanguan, and it was unknown if I wanted to keep Ximen as a way out, so I did not order the bridge to explode.

The Independent Group occupied all three bridges without any effort.

Immediately afterwards, the Independent Regiment quickly controlled all the buildings outside Shuiximen and Hanximen, and built fortifications.

Li Yunlong is already a commander with many battles. He doesn't understand the military strategy of not wanting to win or defeat before winning, but he still knows this principle.

Otherwise, once the Japanese in the city attacked, the troops would suffer losses if they did not gain a stable foothold.

Almost at the same time, Ding Wei's new group also blocked the east gates of all sizes.

Kong Jie's new second regiment blocked Yingze Gate and Cheng'en Gate in Nanguan.

Only the small north gate of Beiguan has locked the door and no troops were sent to block it.

This only takes into account two aspects: one is the lack of troops, and the other is to force the Japanese to break through!

The brigade commander is a serious first-class student of the Whampoa Military Academy, and he is one of the three masters of Huangpu. He should not understand the principle of three qualities and one.

The brigade commander deliberately selected his brigade headquarters at Taiping Temple outside the Shuixi Gate.

This made Li Yunlong suffer because his regiment headquarters was also located in Taiping Temple.

The brigade commander did it on purpose. The Taiyuan Battle was too important. He was afraid that Li Yunlong would not listen to the hello. Who made this guy have had a record of disobedience on the battlefield many times?

"Brig Commander, you should go to Nanguan."

"The new second regiment has a poor foundation and weak combat power."

"If you have a brigade commander in charge, the combat effectiveness of the new second regiment will definitely be greatly improved!"

Li Yunlong kept talking, the brigade commander became impatient and said coldly: "Li Yunlong, do you want to help me out so that you can let go of your hands and feet, right?"

"I tell you, there is no door!"

"The Taiyuan Battle is absolutely not allowed to make any mistakes!"

Li Yunlong said: "Brig Commander, the conscience of heaven and earth, how could I have this idea?"

"If you have the skills to grind your teeth with me, it's better to use your brain. How to smash the Shuiximen or Hanximen as soon as possible! Anyway, I'll put my words here. Whoever of your three main teams to enter Taiyuan City first is the first skill!"

Li Yunlong walked out of the hall with a bitter face, and Zhao Gang and several battalion commanders immediately surrounded him.

Li Yunlong glanced over and didn't see Wang Yan, and said, "Where is the Staff Officer Wang? Where is the cavalry battalion?"

Zhao Gang replied, "Old Li, Staff Wang just sent Gensheng back to report the message, saying that he had some new ideas and might have to return to the team later, and the Cavalry Battalion will be with him."

"That's it." Li Yunlong said in a deep voice, "Anyway, this time it's a tough battle, and neither the Wolf Tooth Squad nor the Cavalry Battalion can be used! Let them rest at Xincheng Airport."

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong shouted again: "Pulle?Pulle?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, artillery battalion commander Yu Chengzhu hurried in: "Here's here."

Li Yunlong asked, "Zhuzi, how did you do what you told you? Have you found the weakness of the city wall?"

"The regiment commander, you have already found it." Yu Chengzhu said, "Just on the side of Xihaizi, the city wall was probably collapsed by heavy artillery by Japanese troops during the Battle of Taiyuan, and it was obviously repaired later."

"But the rammed earth is not compacted and it is a bit loose."

"According to my estimate, it will be able to explode in two hours!"

Li Yunlong shouted: "Then blow it up, don't save shells!"

"Yes!" Yu Chengzhu agreed and turned around and rushed in excitement.

Li Yunlong's eyes turned to the four infantry battalion commanders again, and the four battalion commanders immediately became energetic.

Li Yunlong's eyes swept over Zhang Dabiao, Chen Quan, and Guan Dashan one by one, and finally fell on Wang Huaibao. He said in a deep voice: "Wang Huaibao, your 3rd battalion will take the lead in the attack this time!"

When Guan Dashan heard this, his face immediately turned into a bitter gourd.

Wang Huaibao looked excited, and finally took my turn to the 3rd battalion!

Li Yunlong said again: "But Wang Huaibao, please listen carefully to me. I have given you the chance 3rd battalion, but if you can't get it..."

Wang Huaibao immediately said, "Captain, if you can't take it down, you will shoot me!"

"Shoot you?" Li Yunlong said, "It's a good idea to shoot you! If your 3rd Battalion can't take it down, it will make me embarrassed in front of the brigade commander. I will cut off your dog's head as a chamber pot!"

"Yes!" Wang Huaibao said arrogantly, "I can't take it down. Commander, you cut my head as a chamber pot!"

"Go and prepare!" Li Yunlong said, "After the cannon sound stops and the city wall collapses, you will charge all the camp. You must take down the city gate in the shortest time!"

"yes!"

...

In addition to a Japanese military police squad, guarding at Shuixi Gate, there was also a reinforced battalion of the 8th Mixed Brigade of the Puppet Army.

The battalion commander of this reinforcement battalion is an old acquaintance of the Independent Regiment and the former quarantine of the Cavalry Battalion stationed in Wanjia Town.

Relying on the money he got from his wife Gou Zhengcai, Wan Yong became the battalion commander when he went to Wei Jie.

Wan Yong was scared as he watched the Eighth Route Army push one 37mm rapid-fire cannon after another and one 75mm mountain cannon after another to the opposite side of Xihaizi.

When did the Eighth Route Army become so vast?

There are so many rapid-fire cannons and mountain cannons?

That's all that, I can't keep it!

Ge Fugui and his subordinates Pan Ren and other platoon leaders were also scared and their teeth trembled.

"Brother, this battle is impossible to fight at all!" Pan Ren's eyes rolled around and he whispered, "Or we will surrender again, right?"

"Anyway, it's not the first time I surrender."

"Shut up." Ge Fugui said, "You are so horrible."

"Brother." Pan Ren said anxiously, "If you don't surrender, you will be dead. Only by surrendering can you save your life! After all, the Eighth Route Army treats prisoners preferentially, and they didn't kill us last time."

"Prisoner?" Ge Fugui said, "If you want to be a prisoner, you have to have a chance."

Speaking of this, Ge Fugui turned around in a very hidden way and glanced behind him.

Pan Ren followed and saw a dozen Japanese men holding the bayonet covers, standing behind them with murderous intent, and also erected a light machine gun on the city tower.

This posture is obviously not about fighting the Eighth Route Army, but about monitoring them.

If anything happens to them, they will definitely shoot them as soon as possible.

Pan Ren lowered his voice and said, "Brother, why don't you kill them first?"

Ge Fugui hurriedly covered Pan Ren's mouth: "Second, are you crazy?"
