Heroes of the War of Resistance

It was discovered that the defenders in the city had an established mortar unit. The infantry regiment captain who stayed behind to supervise the battle, looked at the soldiers shrouded in artillery fire, and quickly said: "Retreat! Order the troops to retreat! Damn it, we have to ask Supported!"

A garrison with artillery is undoubtedly more lethal than a garrison without artillery.If the artillery positions of the defenders in the city are not destroyed, the infantry regiment responsible for the attack will also suffer heavy casualties.

The little devils who previously set up mortars within a range of 700 meters, and the grenadiers who built positions within a distance of 300 meters, quickly evacuated from the range covered by artillery fire under the urgent orders of their respective commanders.

From the first round of shelling, six waves of artillery shells fell, and 72 mortar shells also caused a large number of casualties to the attacking Japanese army.Although the road in front of Zhongshan Gate is very wide, there are very few places where you can really avoid the artillery fire.

Looking at the little devils who were constantly retreating, the defenders lying behind the mouth of the city were also very excited and said: "The bombing is good! You little devils of dog R, you also have a chance. That's it, a few more shells will kill you!" These sons of bitches!"

As the mortar platoon started shelling, the infantry regiment ordered to take over the Presidential Palace and control the Zhongshan Tower had no choice but to retreat.In this case, the captain of the infantry regiment must consider that it is necessary to let the division tuán pài send artillery to help in the battle.

If it is not possible, only by dispatching tanks or armored vehicles can it be possible to capture the defenders who occupy the terrain advantage.When the little devil retreated in a hurry, Hu Biao and other snipers on the tower also began to hunt freely.

Compared with other soldiers, he looked at the corpses of those little devils under the city gate with great interest and said, "Wow, there are so many corpses of little devils! Look at it, we killed at least two or three hundred little devils before."

"Probably not yet! I really didn't expect that the little devil would be so reckless. This is just the beginning, why did he retreat?"

"Don't be careless! The little devil has suffered a loss, and he will definitely retaliate soon! Pay attention to air defense, if the little devil really sends planes to help, we can only evacuate. The fortifications built cannot stop the bombing of háng kōngzhà dàn Woolen cloth!"

"It's impossible to send out planes! I think the little devil will definitely send tanks or armored vehicles."

"The little devil shouldn't dare! We have guns in our hands. Can the devil's tanks and armored vehicles block our shells?"

The first lún gōng was completely frustrated, and nearly half of the infantry brigade was injured. The Japanese infantry regiment, who came happily, never expected that the gate of the city would be hit head-on by the defenders.Facing the towering city gate fortifications, the Japanese army could only choose to retreat temporarily.

When the infantry regiment sent a report to the division for help and informed the Zhongshan Gate of the situation, the division commander Ushishima Sadao, who was supervising the battle in the rear, was also very surprised: "What about it? There are still a large number of Chinese defenders at the Zhongshan Gate." ?”

"Yes! The 33rd Regiment's first attack was thwarted, and the defenders relied on the fortifications of the city gate to resist tenaciously. The artillery they carried could not destroy the fortifications of the Chinese Army. After paying half the brigade's casualties, I asked the division for tactical guidance! "

"Gah! This guy Inoue is too incompetent! Is the tank squadron in place?"

"Already in place, ready to attack at any time!"

"Send the Chariot Squadron over there and tell that fellow Inoue that if he can't win the Zhongshan Gate, let him go and be loyal to His Majesty Tiān Huáng! This time, the commander entrusted this task to our division because of his trust in our division. .

It would be a failure if he could not plant the military flag on the tower of the presidential palace in the city before nightfall.At present, other divisions have already invaded Jinling from other directions. Our division must not be slower than other divisions, understand? "

"Hi!"

Mentaro Inoue, the captain of the infantry regiment who was waiting for orders ahead, also looked a little serious when he saw the call back from the division commander.From the telegram, it is not difficult to hear that the division commander's patience with him has reached its limit.

After reading the telegram, Mingtaro Inoue quickly said: "Notify the captains of each brigade to come to the meeting!"

"Hi!"

From this telegram, Mentaro Inoue can clearly understand his end.If he can't complete the combat objectives on time, then waiting for his end is to be dismissed and punished.Of course, there is another end that is to have a laparotomy zì shā.

Last night's raid, although the responsibility was not entirely on his infantry regiment.But if it wasn't for his regiment's lax security, which allowed the attackers to take advantage of the loopholes, perhaps the defenders in the city wouldn't have been able to successfully break through the encirclement.

The head of the division, Ushishima Sadao, was able to protect him, and he had already given him a chance.If Ushijima Sadao was disappointed again, he, the team leader, would naturally be incompetent.An incompetent regiment captain will have no future in the army!

Fortunately, the head of the division ordered him to return to the strict order, and still sent him a squadron of tanks.With the cooperation of the chariot squadron, it shouldn't be a big problem to take down the city gate in front of us.What's more, the division also supported several mountain artillery to cooperate in the battle!

In order to let his subordinates understand the situation facing the alliance, Mingtaro Inoue took advantage of the suspension of the attack and summoned the captains under his command to emphasize the importance of this battle to the alliance and the division.When necessary, they can only fight desperately with the defenders.

On the other hand, Hu Biao, who was staying on the tower, watched the Japanese army suspend the attack, and immediately ordered everyone to strengthen the fortifications.At the same time, I was also thinking about how the Japanese army would attack next.The most likely possibility is to send additional artillery units.

As for the possibility of sending planes to assist in the battle, Hu Biao thinks it should not be great.Under such circumstances, Hu Biao quickly called Huang Ershuan, and after giving instructions in his ear, Huang Ershuan also nodded and said, "Battle Commander, does that thing work?"

"Don't worry! It's better than jī qiāng! Get more dàn yào and let Liu Tuan send a few soldiers to operate it."

"Understood! I'll go right away!"

Huang Ershuan, who immediately went down to the city tower after accepting the task, quickly drove out a car placed in an alley.Not long after returning, the soldiers guarding the tower saw the four cannons lifted from the car.

After erecting and adjusting it himself, Hu Biao soon heard the roar of the engine coming from a distance.Looking at the thick smoke rising from the road in the distance, Hu Biao knew that his prediction was correct, and the little devil still sent armored combat vehicles to support the siege!

The decision to stick to Jinling and fight street fighting is more due to the judgment of the battle situation.Judging from the current situation, Jinling City is almost undefended, and the Japanese army only needs to send a small amount of troops to successfully occupy Jinling City.

After completing the operational goal of capturing Jinling, the Japanese army will focus more on pursuing the main force.The defenders who retreated from the direction of Xiaguan earlier, and the defenders who retreated from the direction of Zijin Mountain last night, were all targets of pursuit.

For the Japanese generals, they are very clear that once these troops are safely withdrawn to the rear, they will cause a lot of trouble for the Japanese army in the future.In this case, the Japanese army will inevitably need to send additional main forces to eliminate as many main forces as possible.

If you want to encircle and suppress the garrison troops that have been scattered and evacuated from Jinling, the plane will be used as an important reconnaissance and pursuit weapon during the day.In contrast, how could the Japanese army be willing to bomb an undefended Jinling City that was almost at your fingertips?

There were defense troops earlier, and Jinling was still in hand. It was normal to use planes to bomb Jinling to occupy Jinling.At present, there are very few defenders in Jinling City. If the Japanese army wants to control Jinling, how can they be willing to blow it into ruins?

Right now Hu Biao is only sticking to the front line of Zhongshan Gate, the Japanese army's first lún gong was frustrated, and it is unlikely that they will send heavy artillery troops to cooperate with the attack.At least the information provided by the military command earlier, the Japanese army's logistics supplies have given some problems.

The so-called "one shot of the cannon, ten thousand taels of gold" is not so exaggerated, but the price of a heavy shell is not cheap.When it is not necessary, the Japanese army will not easily use heavy artillery.What's more, the destroyed houses will eventually be rebuilt.

At least in the eyes of many Japanese generals, Jinling City now belongs to them, not to the national government!

Based on the analysis of these situations, Hu Biao felt that the Japanese army's dispatch of tank troops for reinforcements was the most in line with the needs and ideas of the Japanese army.In order to continue to stop the Japanese army at the city gate and cause more casualties, it is necessary to find some defensive weapons.

Among the artillery received from the military command earlier, there are many machine guns.This kind of machine gun as an anti-aircraft weapon, Hu Biao felt that it was undoubtedly suitable for the thin-skinned tanks used to deal with little devils.

In order to ensure the safety of the machine gun, Hu Biao piled a lot of sandbags near the machine gun.Unless the shells hit the position directly, the soldiers hiding in the sandbags should still be safe, and they would not be destroyed by the Japanese artillery fire as soon as the shells were fired.

The soldiers lying on the tower looked at the little devil tank that finally appeared in sight, and they were still somewhat nervous.Only Hu Biao said calmly: "Brothers, don't be afraid, this kind of thin-skinned tank can't hold our machine guns!"

Having said that, Hu Biao knew that the city tower would not last long.The problem is, Hu Biao didn't want to rely on the Zhongshan Tower to stop the little devil for too long.What he has to do is to block the attack step by step, so that the little devils will continue to send more troops.

When it is dark, Hu Biao will mobilize the main force from the military academy to set off rounds of night battles to counterattack the little devils.As long as you persist for a few more days, I believe this area will also become a nightmare in the eyes of the Japanese army.

Looking at the soldiers sent from the teaching unit, Hu Biao also said directly: "Remember, listen to my order later and aim at the tank of the little devil. At such a short distance, take a few more shells, little The devil's tank will definitely not be able to hold it.

Once I give the order to retreat, you don't need to worry about these machine guns, and immediately withdraw from the tower.Anyway, we still have quite a few machine guns of this kind.As long as you save your life, there will always be weapons.Life is the most important thing, understand? "

"Yes, sir!"

The soldiers who came here under orders felt a lot of comfort when they heard that they only needed to light up all the dàn yào they carried, and then wait for the order to retreat.These soldiers knew very well that once they shot, they would be hit by the little devil's artillery fire.

Compared with other fighters who have door fortifications as cover, their positions cannot protect the top of their heads.If any shells fell into the position, they would be finished.Although the cannon is easy to use, it is too bulky and inconvenient to move!

The Japanese infantry regiment, which had been waiting at the city gate for a long time, naturally felt more confident when they saw the tank squadron coming from the division tuán pài.In the eyes of these Japanese troops, their chariot units are almost invincible on the battlefield.

As the captain of the regiment, Mentaro Inoue briefly chatted with the commander of the chariot squadron and then said: "Order the third and fifth infantry brigades to follow behind the chariot squadron and attack Jinling City for me. Organize the bào pò Hand, blow open the city gate immediately!"

Most of the infantry of the main battle division of the Japanese army are more experienced in the coordinated operations of infantry and tanks.The chariot led the way to attract fire, destroying the defenders' jī qiāng or artillery, and then the infantry followed to attack to prevent anyone from approaching the chariot.

Watching more than a dozen tanks and armored vehicles spread out and start to attack the tower position.Hu Biao, who was staying on the tower, was still waiting quietly.Even the sniper team, Hu Biao also ordered not to shoot.

Several tanks accompanying the little devil fired first, and the shells opened up the fortifications of the tower.These shells either hit the city wall and blasted a big hole, or the shells flew directly over the tower into the city.

Except for a little more movement, it can't hurt the defenders on the tower at all.On the contrary, it is an armored vehicle equipped only with jī qiāng, and the bullets it fires are more threatening.From time to time, bullets flowed along the mouth of the dole, threatening the defenders in the fortification of the door panel.
