Jia Congliang was pushed away, and everyone was thinking that if Nanjing gave an order to the 93rd Army and let their nearest troops go east from Kele Gou, it might solve their urgent needs. August 1 Chinese ≈≥≥.≈ But if you want to think about it, it is still far away. The outside came to report and said: "Report to the chief, the devil has moved forward to attack......" At this time, the gunfire outside began to sound, at first it was a cold gun shot by the devil while attacking, and then the gunfire of the defenders aiming at them from the hole of the gun, which was relatively dull, as if with infinite hatred.

There was no hope of retreat, there was no hope of reinforcements, and all regiments and directly subordinate units were ready to die. The front-line soldiers all took advantage of the distance of the devil to shoot as many as they could. Wang Kundi, commander of the 235th Battalion of the 12th Regiment, was injured and was sent to a noodle shop by the field hospital for treatment. Deputy battalion commander Zhu Fangliang replaced the battalion commander, and Qu Chunliang was the deputy battalion commander. Without the permission of the brigade headquarters, Zhu Fangliang and Qu Chunliang led two companies to slide down the east gate, touched the trench that the devil had repaired earlier, and attacked until they were 200 meters away from the avenue. As soon as the devils appeared, they immediately made a decision and smashed the devils around the cannon. Song Jinbo, the commander of the second company, instructed the soldiers to throw grenades at the cannons, which immediately damaged the two cannons.

The commander of Takahashi's Yukishita Brigade was furious when he heard that defenders had rushed to him and blew up two cannons. He first sprayed the dog blood scolded by the captain of the maintenance team, and then called and quarreled with Motegi. The two passed the buck to each other, blaming each other, and being responsible for lax defense. Motegi's series of accidents, originally took a lot of effort to break through the Cangcang Dam Liang, and then chased Jin Shengtai, hoping to fight to the death with the 117th Brigade, who knew that they did not fight, but dug the hole of the gun, shot from the wall, and occasionally carried out wall attacks and night raids. The battle of one day and one night caused most of the personnel of the Fourth Brigade to be lost.

The two things that made him sad and sad were that Shintaro Umei was killed in battle, and he withdrew halfway, and the reinforcements arrived, which was too faceless. Although he was eager to let Takahashi attack the small city of Jin Shengtai, he waved his army to kill it and capture two living people to eat, but he didn't dare to see Takahashi. A simple meeting at Shiquan River taught Takahashi the arrogance and contempt, and he was angry. Takahashi accused them of not cooperating well with the defense, and the two did not talk speculatively for more than half a sentence, and quarreled in the dark.

The two of them quarreled, and the battle still had to cooperate, and the herald of Shiro succeeded Umei as the chief of staff, and he was also a graduate of the training class in Tokyo, although he was five short in stature, he could have it greatly. On his way back from Shiquan River, he began to reorganize the remaining troops of less than 1,500 men, and all units were incomplete. Taking advantage of the quarrel between the two, he demanded that the existing positions cooperate closely and continue to advance southward. In order to make time and space for the Takahashi Brigade to deploy the power of artillery. Under the stern command of the chief of staff, the incomplete wings stepped up their coordinated attacks against each other.

Although the Sasaki Squadron of the 13th Wing had less than half of its men left, it pursued the 12th Battalion and drove them through the vicinity of the East Gate until all the remaining forces were withdrawn into the woods. The defenders of the city relied on the fire on the walls and in the guns and kept fighting, otherwise there would be no one left in the 12th battalion. There was a demonstration of the 12th battalion in the east, and the 234th regiment at the west gate couldn't sit still, so Commander Zhang sent the 11th battalion to slide out of the west gate, also using the devil's position to fight a big fight. But they moved half a beat late, had no effect, and lost a lot of troops.

Brigade Commander Ding first heard that the 12th Battalion had been killed, and he wanted to prohibit it, but he couldn't give an order; Then, when he heard that the 11th Battalion had also been killed, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong, and none of the staff officers reported to him. He couldn't hold them accountable for their unauthorized actions, and thought to himself, did Ji Zhanwen do it secretly?

There are 12 battalions of brushes, and Takahashi is in a hurry. As the commander of the artillery brigade, he has always had nothing in his eyes, so he looks down on Motegi. Although he ended the quarrel with Motegi, he was indignant in his heart, aren't you Motegi a famous god of war? It seems that it is in vain...... At this time, he hurriedly ordered several other 92 infantry guns to hurry up and open fire.

The remaining five 92 infantry guns, which belonged to the three artillery brigades, were all under the command of their respective squadron commanders, and they were busy choosing running positions, transporting shells, and adjusting perspectives. Takahashi still thought they were too slow, and scolded: "Baga Ya Road, the artillery is too slow like a pig with a ......" Yamashita Squadron was the first to adjust the elevation angle, and the Honda Squadron followed suit, and both squadrons pulled the lead rope after the trumpeter shouted the trumpet. With the sound of the cannons, the shells flew towards Kim Sang-tae. A rare smile appeared on Takahashi's face.

The defenders on the city wall all threw down the door panels and hurriedly retreated to the wall. It turned out that the shells were not aimed at the city wall, but flew into the field between Yaoguo Street and Kim Sang-tae, blowing up two earthen pits. The defenders were not a few, but most of them climbed up again, crouched behind the wood and the door panels, and aimed and shot at the devils to the north. Motegi and Jigu urged all the devils under their command to attack forward along their original positions. They and the defenders on the wall exchanged shots, killing and wounding on both sides. But the shooting in the eye of the gun was a different story, only the devil was killed, and the defender shooter was not injured. However, Motegi's men pushed closer and closer, and the shooter's line of sight continued to shrink.

Takahashi was in a hurry, ignoring the rifle bullets constantly flying on the city wall, and walked to the gun emplacement, raising his hand to give Yamashita and Honda a mouthful. Then he waved his knife and pointed back and said: "Gun position, cross the road, there is a karma on the hillside, quickly, break off to the small city wall, and the ground collapses greatly......" Honda Nakasa snapped and said: "Hai, please rest assured, the general must collapse the city wall......" The five cannons were rehung behind the car, pulled across the avenue, and pulled up the back hill. The terrain is high, which is suitable for artillery, and because of the long distance, the gunners don't have to hide too much from the bullets of the defenders.

The artillery went up the back hillside, and the defenders on the city walls barely reached with rifles, and the machine guns could not hit at all. The bullets shot from the gun's hole can't be hit. Takahashi scolded his men for dodging bullets while looking at the position in front of him, hoping that Motegi would attack a little more tightly to attract the defenders' firepower. On the city wall, Huang Guangxiu, the commander of the 233rd Regiment, 8th Battalion, 1st Company, 3rd Platoon, his body is thin and as light as a leaf; Although he hid behind the door panel and shot like the other soldiers, he saw a figure in yellow mud military uniform walking around in the artillery position of the devil on the back hillside. He took a rifle from a soldier next to him, aimed it and shot it on the ground, and the commander in the yellow mud uniform rolled over and fell to the ground.

While Takahashi was still lecturing, he was hit in the head by a flying bullet, and blood splattered on Honda Nakasa's cannon...... When Honda Nakasa, Yamashita Nakasa, and Hatoma Osa and other commanders saw that the general had fallen to the ground, they all drew their sabers, pointed at the small city, and said: "Target, city wall, open the cannon...... "Five cannons, fire at the same time. The walls were blown out first with one gap, then with two holes......

Brigade Commander Ding and the personnel of the headquarters all came out to see the gap in the middle of the northern city wall that had been blown open by shells. In less than a quarter of an hour, with the explosion of the flying shells, several gaps had been connected into a large gap, and the deepest part was more than five feet. A real problem, if a section of the city wall is blown down, there is no danger inside. Brigade Commander Ding, Deputy Brigade Commander Ji, Chief of Staff Zhang and other commanders all changed color. It's like the sky is about to fall, and there's nothing to be done. The lookout hole of the head of the Miao regiment was the first to be blown up by the devils, and he had just finished arranging the defense of the regiment, and he and Xie Zhanfang's regiment deputy walked quickly. Commander Miao said: "Brigade Commander Ding, the city wall will be blown down in a moment, and we have no danger to defend." Our mistake was that we didn't go after Motegi immediately, and it's too late to say anything. I think so, our 233rd regiment will not leave, you lead the other departments, hurry out of the west gate and then retreat south to Yulin Zichuan......"

Brigade Commander Ding knew that his mistake was not small, so he had to turn around and look at Ji Zhanwen. Ji Zhanwen nodded to Commander Miao, turned back to Brigade Commander Ding and said, "The matter has come to this, so I have to do what Commander Miao said." Brigade Commander Ding said to Chief of Staff Zhang: "Order, the 234th Regiment will go out immediately, the brigade headquarters and the directly subordinate teams will follow, and the 235th Regiment will break off the ......" He turned around and said to Commander Miao: "Ziping, I have to sacrifice you, as the brigade commander, I have the greatest responsibility." The main force goes away, you can withdraw immediately, you can chase the main force away, or you can retreat elsewhere, we will all withdraw to the mountains around the Blue Flag Karen first......" Commander Miao accepted the order, nodding and urging them to leave quickly.

Staff officers and guards have brought over the war horses and urged Brigade Commander Ding and other commanders to leave quickly. As he spoke, the gap was cut off by three feet, and he could already see the steel helmet of the devil outside the city wall when he stood a little higher. Deputy Xie Tuan and his staff officers were going around explaining mobile defense to his men and soldiers, allowing them to demolish the nearest houses and use wood to defend the sheds. Deputy Brigade Commander Ji was busy mobilizing the owners of the National Congress and asking them to evacuate with them.

Although the brigade headquarters was coerced towards the west gate, it was impossible for the troops of the first brigade to be withdrawn for a while. The 234th Regiment had just squeezed out half of the West Gate, so it had to let the brigade headquarters go first, followed by the directly subordinate teams. The 235th Regiment Guards Battalion and the 233rd Regiment opened fire on the devils through the wall, throwing them with limited grenades. The 235th Regiment had just withdrawn to the vicinity of the West Gate, leaving all the grenades for the 233rd Regiment. The defensive surface of the 233rd Regiment turned into a large wall that had been blown down, both sides were red-eyed, the devils attacked inside, and the 233rd Regiment shot with their lives. There were still 1,000 men left in the 4th Brigade, most of whom were holding the corpses on the ground to block the bullets, and kept moving forward.

The devils, who had been completely disorganized, howled and rushed forward, and it turned out that Motegi had moved the headquarters to the trenches. Ono Yataro, who was covered in mud, was photographed, and it turned out that someone reported that Gincho had repaired a heavy machine gun. Ono Zitaro said happily when he heard it: "Hey, Eryinjun is really a skilled craftsman, quickly, call him to see me......" The brigade herald Captain Sassa said in the back: "Ono Daisa, you don't want to delay Eryin's time, it's best to let him repair a little more ......" Before his words fell, a bullet entered his mouth, and the corpse fell to the ground.

Ono Osa was gloating, when the machine gun, which was probably repaired, began to ring out in the ruins of the wall in front of him......
