Chapter 321: Ambush in the City, Fierce Street Fighting!
"Boom!"
"Boom, boom, boom! ——”
In Huoqiu County, after dinner, the Japanese army once again concentrated artillery fire into the city.
Although the Air Force cannot be dispatched at night, the accuracy of artillery will be greatly reduced.
But before they could storm the city, the city was full of enemies, and it was completely possible to carry out indiscriminate blind fire strikes.
In the devil's opinion, as long as you can kill and injure some more troops of the Tiger Regiment, you can reduce some offensive resistance.
Therefore, for a time, the entire Huoqiu County was under artillery fire, and there were continuous explosions resounding in the night sky all over the city.
Clusters of firelight rose into the sky one after another, reflecting the whole night as if it were day.
The soldiers of the Tiger Regiment and the Independent Regiment hid in their burrows, only to feel that the whole earth was shaking violently.
The dirt "swished" down and fell on top of their heads, making them look like groundhogs by the faint glow of candles and torches.
However, although they looked full of embarrassment, they had an undisguised murderous aura on their faces and eyes, and they were ready to continue to resist the Japanese attack.
"Warriors of the Empire, the time has come to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Attack! Sortie! ”
"Kill the chicken!"
"Kill the chicken and give it! ——”
About half an hour later, the combined shelling of the Japanese army ended.
Tens of thousands of Japanese troops, under the orders of their respective commanders, shouted the slogan "Load, load", and flocked to the city wall from all directions outside the city.
Yang Jing walked out of the cave, strode back to the joint command on the ground, and immediately picked up the phone on the desktop and ordered the subordinates: "Resist step by step, let the devils enter the city, use the cover of night, and use street battles, ambush battles, sparrow battles, and curtain battles to maneuver with little devils."
In addition, each sniper group immediately rushed to the established position as fast as possible, built a sniper position, and provided fire cover for the defenders!
All in all, we have only one goal, and that is to use all means to consume the enemy, block the enemy, and kill as many enemies as possible!
However, before dawn, don't drive all the devils out of the city, lest the annoyed and angry Japanese army use artillery shelling again! ”
Bi Yuntao, Fan Tietou, Yu Zongping, and Zhou Zichen and others readily agreed, and then they each took their own troops, first divided a part of the troops to fortify on the four city walls, and the main force relied on the houses on both sides of the streets and alleys in the city to build flank firepower, as well as various tricky traps.
Because the Japanese army still had some tanks and armored vehicles, which could provide cover and fire support for the attacking troops, the city wall had already collapsed one huge gap after another under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Japanese army.
Therefore, it was difficult to block the frontal attack of the main Japanese army by simply using the city wall as a position.
Therefore, after the flanking fire and thunder traps of the main force of the defenders were basically arranged, Yu Zongping, Bi Yuntao and other forward commanders ordered the soldiers guarding the city wall to retreat in order to lure the devils into the ambush circle.
After the defenders on the city wall retreated, the pressure on the devil's attacking troops suddenly decreased, and they quickly broke down the door, and the ghosts screamed and swarmed into the city.
The east gate is still the direction of the main attack of the Japanese army.
At this time, most of the houses on both sides of the street, about 500 meters away from the east gate, were flattened by the bombing and air raids of the devils during the day, and turned into pieces of ruins.
At this moment, the main forces of the 1st Battalion and the 1st Company and 2nd Company of the 3rd Battalion of the Independent Regiment, under the leadership of the regiment commander Yu Zongping, are stepping up their ambush here.
Relying on the slightly more intact private houses on both sides of the street, one flank fire after another was constructed.
The dense network of firepower formed by the interweaving of a number of firepower points can completely cover every surrounding street and alley, and destroy any invading enemy.
Even Yu Zongping himself personally set up a Makqin water-cooled heavy machine gun and hid above the ruins of a two-story house.
This two-story building, under the bombardment of the devils, has collapsed only as high as a one-story house.
But it is still a commanding height with a wide field of vision and an excellent location.
Yu Zongping's heavy machine gun is located here, which can not only block a crossroads 200 meters ahead, but also use the surrounding buildings as cover, making it difficult for the little devil to find and lock his location in the dark night.
Maximize your own safety.
In order to give the devil a head-on attack, so as to facilitate the next insistence, the ambushes of the rest of the gates were also carried out in unison.
Due to the weak strength of the defenders at the east gate, Yang Jing specially transferred the guard company over.
At the same time, in accordance with Yang Jing's instructions, the companies of the artillery battalion also deployed the remaining more than 80 unconscionable guns in some suitable positions in the city, so as to provide fire cover for the defenders at the necessary moment and strike a thunderous blow to the invading little devils!
It is worth mentioning that not long after Ito Masakaki and Matsuura Junrokuro led the main forces of the Japanese 101st Division and the 106th Division to Huoqiu City.
Chen Lin and Liu Yue also arrived at Huoqiu with the 3rd and 4th battalions of the Tiger Regiment.
However, they did not unite the defenders of the city and flank the besieging Japanese troops inside and outside.
Because with their little strength, in the absence of geographical advantages, they took the initiative to attack the Japanese army dozens of times stronger than them, which was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg and killing themselves.
Therefore, they only followed the instructions of Yang Jing, the head of the group, and temporarily stationed in a mountain forest 30 miles west of the city.
The whole day of waiting made Liu Yue, who was more impatient, even more anxious and uneasy.
Because, even if they were 30 miles away, they could clearly hear the fierce firefighting coming from under Huoqiu City.
The violent explosions seemed to explode in Liu Yue's heart.
And the constant humming of the engines of Japanese fighters in the sky was like countless big flies hovering around Liu Yue's ears, which made Liu Yue feel even more upset.
finally survived until dark, and Liu Yue couldn't wait to propose to Chen Lin, Tian Cheng, and Monkey and others on the side: "Everyone, we can't act during the day, but now we can always do it at night, right?" ”
The monkey hesitated for a moment and said, "Battalion Commander Liu, the order given to us by the regimental seat is to let us wait here, and we must not act rashly before we get the order, so as not to be self-defeating."
So, let's wait and see. ”
Liu Yue hurriedly said, "Company Commander Shi, when is it now?" The little devil has a full 80,000 troops, and the regiment and the independent regiment of the New Fourth Army together are less than 8,000 troops.
Moreover, the Japanese army still has absolute air supremacy.
It's night, and the Japanese fighters can't take off, so it's the best time for us to work together and rescue them!
But once it is delayed until dawn tomorrow, when the little devil's fighter plane takes off again, we have no chance not to say it, but I am afraid that they may not be able to hold out for another day!
As a soldier, you should all know very well that the military situation is like fire, and there is no room for delay! ”
Chen Lin, Tian Cheng, and the monkey and others all fell into a deep groan.
As a qualified sniper, you need to keep a calm heart at all times, so after a while, the monkey spoke again: "Battalion Commander Liu, it's not impossible to act, but before that, I think we need to send a telegram to ask for permission from them!" ”
Liu Yue said: "Company Commander Shi, didn't you take off your pants and fart?" If the group had agreed to our actions, he would have ordered us to kill the little devil in the eye!
You must know that there is an old saying in China that the generals are outside, and the military orders are not subject to them!
When necessary, we must make corresponding arrangements and deployments according to the current situation! ”
This time, without waiting for the monkey to speak, Chen Lin took the lead and said: "Lao Liu, you should be very clear about the ability of our group seat, so you must not doubt his choice."
If we act rashly, if we are self-defeating and disrupt the deployment of the group, then we will be to blame!
What's more, didn't the regiment say that the brothers in the baggage camp were digging tunnels day and night, and it was expected that they would be able to open it before dawn.
At that time, they will be able to calmly withdraw from Huoqiu County through the tunnel.
And if we had attacked at this time, we would have suffered heavy losses at least and would have been surrounded by Japanese troops on all sides.
At that time, do you want to let the group seat come again to pick us up and rescue us? ”
After a pause, the 3rd Battalion Commander Chen Lin's voice changed and continued: "Of course, it's not that we can't carry out operations, but as Company Commander Shi said, before that, we should first send a telegram to ask for instructions from the regiment and get his permission. ”
Liu Yue couldn't resist everyone, so he had to nod in agreement.
Soon, the message was reciprocated, and the reply was that the soldiers were standing still and waiting for instructions.
Although Liu Yue was very unwilling, he could only suppress the impulse in his heart and gave up for the time being.
……
The picture pulls back to Huoqiu County, the east gate.
As the defenders voluntarily abandoned the city defenses, the Japanese were able to easily rush into the city and continue to run over the streets towards the center of the city.
After Yu Zongping learned about the situation through the scout's report, he immediately lifted his spirits and said to the herald soldiers beside him: "Pass my order, and all battalions and companies will immediately prepare for battle!" ”
"Yes!"
Several heralds agreed with a bang and immediately conveyed Yu Zongping's order.
The soldiers of the more than 1,000 independent regiments and guard companies of the Tiger Ben Regiment who participated in the ambush all cheered up, set up light and heavy machine guns, raised their rifles and submachine guns in their hands, pulled open the back cover of the grenade, and clasped the pull ring with their fingers, and prepared for battle.
At the city wall, after a simple fierce battle, the commander of the 1st Battalion of the Independent Regiment decisively withdrew from the city wall with more than 100 soldiers according to the plan, and continued to retreat along the central main street.
It didn't stop until it crossed the main ambush force and lured the devil into the ambush circle!
The large number of devils who followed behind them, without thinking too much, immediately shouted the slogan "onboard, onboard", and under the guidance of several tanks and combat vehicles, they chased after them with extreme arrogance.
Watch as hordes of devils swarm and enter the ambush circle set by your own side.
Yu Zongping's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a wolf-like indifferent killing intent, and sneered in his heart: "Dog's day Oriental devil! This time, Lao Tzu will definitely let you have no return! ”
Subsequently, he decisively operated the Makqin heavy machine gun, aimed it at the Japanese crowd, and pulled the trigger suddenly.
The Makqin water-cooled heavy machine gun suddenly let out a dull roar like a steel beast.
"Da Da Da!"
"Tubu! ……”
The muzzle flame was dazzling, and a large number of bullets suddenly fan-shaped as Yu Zongping's hands swung, and they shot densely towards the pursuing devil crowd.
In order to show the trajectory and correct the shooting deviation, so as to ensure the killing efficiency, the bullet belt used by Yu Zongping was mixed with a lot of tracer bullets.
In this way, in the dark night, you can clearly see tracer bullets dragging their eye-catching tails through the void and shooting towards the oncoming devil people.
The sound of gunfire was an order, and as soon as Yu Zongping opened fire, the surrounding defenders and soldiers all pulled the trigger one after another.
In an instant, a more dense rain of hot bullets poured out from the ruins of the houses on both sides, intertwining with each other, forming a huge network of crossfire on the street.
"Ahh
"Ahhh ~~~”
For a while, the little devils who couldn't hide screamed and fell to the ground.
Some little devils pretended to be clever and immediately dodged to both sides of the street, but they didn't expect to dodge the attack on this side, but they didn't dodge the attack on the other side of the street.
In the end, it is impossible to escape death!
Even the tank fighting vehicles that were guiding in front turned into a pool of scrap metal under the attack of Molotov cocktails, and the tank crews were burned alive in the cabin.
Helplessly, due to heavy casualties, the Japanese attacking force led by the 101st Infantry Wing had to be forced to retreat and withdraw from the ambush circle set by the defenders.
……
At that time, the co-captain of the 101st Wing, Shozaburo Sato, had just taken the steps of not recognizing his six relatives, and confidently entered the city through the collapsed city gate building.
He was preparing to command the troops to storm the center of the city in one go, destroy all the stubborn defenders in the city, and win the immortal battle to kill Yang Jing.
Because in his opinion, the city walls have been breached, and the defenders are no longer in danger to defend, and then they will definitely be able to destroy all the defenders in the city with the momentum of devastating and decaying.
But he never expected that the good news did not wait, but saw his own troops as if they had seen a ghost, and they were retreating back in a panic.
Sato Shozaburo's face suddenly gloomy, and he said angrily: "Yaga Ya Road! Can anyone tell me what's going on? ”
A devil Shaozuo, who fled back in a panic, raised his hand and straightened the military hat on his head, and immediately slammed his head, and reported: "Report to Your Excellency, the attacking troops of the imperial army strayed into the ambush circle set up by the Chinese army due to insufficient preparation, and suffered heavy casualties under surprise. ”
Shozaburo Sato surprisingly didn't continue to get angry, and even the expression on his face gradually regained his calm, he raised his head and stared with a deep gaze at the city ahead that was shrouded in night.
After a while, he slowly spoke: "Jin Tianjun, you tell me the specific situation just now, you can't miss anything, understand?" ”

PS! The third child has diarrhea in the past two days, and he is about to become dehydrated, and he hung up salt water for another afternoon today.
In addition, I recommend a very good-looking new military book "One Ultimate Skill Every Day" written by my friend Wen Tianxiao.
