The east gate of Kunshan City.

After crossing the gap in the castle, Watanabe Takemasa did not immediately order an attack.

He stood on top of the ruined city, condescendingly, and after making a brief observation of the terrain and situation in the city, he turned his head to look at the commander of the 20th Infantry Wing next to him, Nobuaki Ohno, and said, "Your Excellency, before attacking, I need to carefully explain to the commanders of the 20th Wing. ”

"Hmm."

Nobuaki Ohno nodded, and then asked the orderlies to gather several captains and squadron leaders under his command.

After everyone arrived, Nobuaki Ohno looked around, and said in a cold voice: "You all know that Watanabe Shaosa is my tactical adviser to the 19th Brigade; In this battle, he will provide tactical guidance for our department!

Therefore, his commands are my commands, and you drip, must be strictly followed and carried out! Got it? ”

"Hello!" The commanders of more than a dozen devil troops all paused heavily: "Humble duty understands!" ”

Watanabe Takemasa nodded at Nobuaki Ohno, and then swept the faces of the devil officers in front of him with a cold gaze, and said in a deep voice: "First of all, announce two disciplines!" ”

"First, when moving forward, try to climb over the ruins of private houses!"

"Unless you encounter the ruins of a house that you can't climb over, you are definitely not allowed to move forward along the streets!"

"Do you understand?"

"Haya!" The leaders of the devil troops nodded heavily.

After a pause, Watanabe Takemasa said again: "Second, if you encounter the ruins of a house that cannot be climbed over, and you can only borrow along the streets and alleys, you must move forward close to the walls on both sides, and you are absolutely not allowed to advance from the center of the streets and alleys!" ”

"Machine gun squadrons and artillery squadrons are also not allowed to walk in the middle of the street!"

This sentence was said by Takeshi Watanabe to the squadron leader of the heavy machine gun squadron in charge of coordinated operations, as well as the squadron leader of the battle defense artillery squadron.

After the tank and combat vehicles were completely destroyed by the Tiger Regiment, the anti-aircraft artillery acted as direct fire for the devils.

"Hello!" Two infantry squadron leaders, eight infantry squadron leaders, two heavy machine gun squadron leaders, and two artillery squadron leaders slammed at the same time.

"Command!" Watanabe Takemasa moved his gaze forward, landed on the ruins in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "The squadrons of the First Brigade are lined up and pushed forward. Every time you occupy a commanding height, the heavy machine gun squadron and the anti-aircraft artillery squadron must follow up in time and immediately build up supporting fire at the commanding height!

After the support firepower is built, the squadrons continue to move forward to occupy the next commanding height!

Remember, this battle needs to be carried out step by step, steadily and steadily, step by step to compress the enemy's position and activity space, and must not be in a hurry! ”

"In addition, the second brigade, as the second offensive echelon, will move forward at a distance of 200 meters from the first brigade to maintain sufficient strategic depth!"

"Hello!"

The leaders of the devil troops paused again, and then turned and left.

……

The other side.

In the city, after the Japanese artillery attack ended, the battalions of the Tiger Regiment had already drilled out of the hole in the ground and entered their respective positions.

More than 40 sharpshooters selected from the whole regiment were also gathered by Yang Jing to form a sharpshooter company, and he personally served as the commander of the sharpshooter company.

At this time, more than 40 sharpshooters had already divided into more than 20 combat groups and quickly entered the sniper positions selected in advance.

As a defender, this is a natural advantage.

This time, Yang Jing did not stay at the regimental headquarters, but went to the front line in person, hiding in a western-style building not far from the East Gate City.

It is a three-story brick and stone building, which has been shaved off under the shelling and bombardment of devils.

The third floor collapsed completely, and the second floor also collapsed in half.

And Yang Jing hid on the top of the other half of the second floor that had not collapsed.

The view here is excellent, and you can almost see the East Gate Castle.

Yang Jing's eyes have also been watching here, and the devil army has just crossed the city when he discovers it.

Originally, he wanted to use the Mosin Nagant sniper rifle in his hand to snipe a few important officers of the devil, but unfortunately, Watanabe Takemasa was well versed in the essence of street fighting, so he had long been wary of the sniping of the Tiger Ben Regiment.

Even if you stand on top of the city and observe the situation, you are hiding in a blind spot that is quite safe and not easy to be sniped.

Therefore, Yang Jing had to give up his plan to snipe.

Because the purpose of the existence of snipers is to snipe the enemy's key targets, destroy the enemy's command hub, and suppress the enemy's key firepower.

If you want to snipe a few inconsequential targets, you will expose your position and make the enemy more vigilant, but the gain will outweigh the loss.

……

As the devils attacked, their figures soon appeared in the field of view of the sniper fire points of the sharpshooter company.

It's just that after spending money to buy lessons, these devils have learned to be obedient.

Instead of moving along the streets, they chose to build houses.

Teams of devil soldiers, like monkeys, climbed and jumped between the collapsed ruins and ruins, while constantly moving forward.

It may seem slow, but it's actually fast!

In the blink of an eye, the devil advanced more than 100 meters.

In the middle of this, the sniper fire points hardly found a chance to shoot. Because the figure of the devil is always shuttling between the collapsed ruins, and because of the ruins and the obscurations of those chaotic beams and rafters, their hit rate is not guaranteed at all.

Because, they have not received professional sniper training, but their marksmanship is relatively good, and if they do not have a certain amount of time to aim, it is difficult to ensure the hit rate.

After all, they weren't fast gunners like Yang Jing.

……

However, Liu Yue's fourth battalion had already exchanged fire with the devils advancing in front.

It's just that the devils suddenly changed their offensive strategy, no longer advancing along the street like a melon peel, but instead advancing forward from the broken walls in the middle, which made these broken walls and ruins provide excellent cover for the devils, and also caused serious obstacles to the shooting of the fourth battalion.

The previously carefully constructed flanking firepower also immediately lost its place of bravery.

Although as a defender, the fourth battalion still has a certain geographical advantage, but the advantage is not as good as before.

Coupled with the overall combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the fourth battalion, both marksmanship and stabbing were far inferior to the Japanese army.

Therefore, once the fire was exchanged, the fourth battalion quickly fell into the disadvantage, was defeated by the Japanese army, and lost hundreds of meters of defense area one after another.

Captain Kogoro Yoshino is the commander of the devil unit in charge of advancing from the main street, and of course when he sees that the Tiger Ben Regiment is completely vulnerable under the attack of his new strategy.

A grim smile suddenly appeared on the little devil's face.

"Yo Xi!" He immediately waved the command knife in his hand vigorously, and ordered the devil soldiers under his command to speed forward.

"Kill the chicken! Kill the chicken and give! ”

Several devil soldiers suddenly continued to advance forward with guns under the cover of a part of the firepower, like male dogs in estrus.

"Da Da Da!"

"Tubu! ——”

But at this moment, as soon as these ghost soldiers crossed the broken wall in front of them, they were hit by the dense rain of bullets that swept in front of them, and they all screamed and fell in a pool of blood.
