Zhao Zhiguo never worried about chaos in his command system. Gao Cang, Qin Dongsheng and Dian Hou were all able to take charge of their own affairs. Even if Zhao Zhiguo died, their regiment's command system would still be normal.

"Captain, I don't want you to leave the frontline command to me and let me practice. You can just go back to the division headquarters and do a good job as a staff advisor to the division commander."

The frontline Japanese army was only one street away from where Zhao Zhiguo and the others were. If the Jinsui army defending in front could not stop them, the Japanese army could reach Zhao Zhiguo and the others with a single charge.

Now that Zhao Zhiguo is the leader, he should be in the command position, so Gao Cang and others are really worried about Zhao Zhiguo's safety.

"Lao Gao, we have been together for a long time. Every time we fight, when have you ever seen me leave the front line?" Zhao Zhiguo threw the binoculars to Gao Cang.

"Captain, after all, your status is different now."

"What's the difference? Am I not your brother Gao Cang?"

As Zhao Zhiguo spoke, he took off his lieutenant colonel uniform and put on an ordinary soldier uniform.

"Captain, that's not what I meant!" Gao Cang said, "Not only me, but also the brothers are worried about your safety. The brothers have all said that as long as the commander is here, we will not worry about our troops being beaten by little devils.

Gone."

"Yao Pengju, tell the brothers that during night operations, except for weapons and ammunition, you are not allowed to bring anything extra. Some soldiers who have steel helmets should not wear their helmets."

After Zhao Zhiguo changed his clothes, he began to check his weapons and equipment.

"Captain, just listen to me. I will lead the team to the head office for this operation, right?" Gao Cang said.

"Gao Cang, I understand what you and your brothers are thinking, but now is not the time. Look at how many soldiers are left in our regiment. Apart from you, there are only a dozen or so old brothers who are following us. Enter the city.

At that time, with the additional troops coming in and the death row inmates released from the prison, we had nearly 700 people, and now we still have less than 400."

Not only was the number of troops reduced, soldiers died in battle, but all the weapons in their hands were lost, including more than half of the light and heavy machine guns.

"Captain, I know you feel sorry for your brothers, but you are not wearing steel plates. If you insist on going, I will file a complaint with the division commander now."

The reason why the brothers are willing to follow Zhao Zhiguo is very simple, that is, Zhao Zhiguo regards the lives of soldiers as their own lives instead of sending them to the battlefield as cannon fodder.

"Sir, are you still capable?"

Hearing that Gao Cang was going to complain to his teacher, Zhao Zhiguo stared at Gao Cang.

Gao Cang looked at Zhao Zhiguo unconvinced: "I don't have the patience. There are still two days before the reinforcements arrive. No one knows what the outcome will be. I will never let the regiment commander die in front of the brothers. Otherwise, how can I help the brothers?"

Do they explain?"

"I really want to tie you up!"

Zhao Zhiguo was so angry that he was spinning in circles, but he could not tie up his best battalion commander in front of the soldiers, as this would damage Gao Cang's prestige in the hearts of the soldiers.

"Captain, I think Battalion Commander Gao is right. The special forces team has gone out to perform many missions. You can leave the operations at night to me. I will capture two more prisoners for you." Yao Pengju said.

"Okay, now that your wings have hardened, you don't need me anymore, right?"

"Captain, although there are less than 400 people left in our regiment, it is not the commander's turn to charge with a gun. If we only have 200 people left, if you want to charge with us again, we will

I will never stop him." Yao Pengju said.

"The operation of the special force was canceled that night. I took the dozens of ruthless people from the prison with me." Zhao Zhiguo ordered.

"No, no, no, no, Commander, you'd better go ahead. The dozens of ruthless men you got out of prison can do a defensive battle. Who else can do such a delicate job besides our special forces?

"

Hearing that Zhao Zhiguo wanted to cancel their operation, Yao Peng was anxious and quickly agreed.

"Gao Cang, don't go snitching to the division commander. I promise you that after the operation ends tonight, I will definitely not leave the brigade headquarters to go charge again."

"Really?" Gao Cang was doubtful of Zhao Zhiguo's words.

"Really! When have I told you lies?"

When night fell, the Japanese army did not advance much, and the Japanese army did not dare to charge recklessly in the dark. Maybe there were Chinese soldiers lurking in the unseen ruins.

Fires still burning can be seen everywhere in the city, and occasional explosions break the silence of the night.

Today's progress in the city did not satisfy Masao Murano, but Masao Murano also knew that today's results were much better than yesterday.

If they continue at today's pace, in two days they will be able to occupy most of Pingcheng and compress the Chinese defenders in the city into a small area.

After they compress the space of the Chinese army, they will then use cannons to bombard them. The effect will definitely be much better than the previous few days. By then, they can use cannons to end the battle, and there will be no need for his troops to clean up the ruins in the city.

"Commander, use this!" Yao Pengju handed Zhao Zhiguo a submachine gun, "The soldier holding this gun died."

Zhao Zhiguo took the submachine gun handed over by Yao Pengju and checked the ammunition: "Brothers, are you ready?"

"Already prepared!"

"Tonight, try to be as quiet as possible. We will shoot again if we have to."

Zhao Zhiguo and the others not only wanted to kill the Japs, but also captured two Japanese prisoners and asked them about the situation there.

"Boom boom boom"

Before Zhao Zhiguo and the others could set out, there was another explosion in the city, but it was not the shelling of the Japanese army, but the mortars of Zhao Zhiguo and the others.

The Japanese firepower point at the street entrance was vulnerable to mortar attacks, and the Japanese soldiers guarding the street entrance were killed.

After the Japanese troops at several other street intersections learned that the Chinese army was shelling their firepower points, they abandoned their positions at the street intersections and moved into bunkers.

"Captain, all the little devil's apparent firepower has been knocked out!" Qin Dongsheng reported to Zhao Zhiguo.

"Well done, it's up to us next."

Zhao Zhiguo put away the dagger, and then left the bunker with Yao Pengju.

Yao Pengju just whistled a few times in the darkness, and dozens of black figures began to slowly approach the place where the Japanese troops were hiding in the darkness.

The little Japanese soldiers did not expect that the Chinese army would be so bold and dare to attack them in the middle of the night.

Zhao Zhiguo led three soldiers to the back of a crumbling house. According to his observations during the day, this house was often visited by Japanese troops, and it was a relatively complete house nearby. It could be used as a bunker for the little devils, and it would definitely be used as a bunker at night.
