As soon as Wang Shoucheng rushed down the city tower, Zhu Hongxi, who had caught up, called back, he didn't know what important arrangements the regimental seat had to convey to the battalions, so he rushed up to the city tower and shouted: "Report to the regimental seat, Wang Shoucheng will report to you." ”

Lei Yunfeng grabbed Wang Shoucheng's collar and roared angrily: "Wang Shoucheng, you conveyed the order to the commander of the 15th Battalion Huang Jianuo, how many squadrons of the Japanese army were fighting with?" Why there are as many as five or six hundred Japanese troops suddenly rushing to Qinshui, tell me quickly. ”

"Huh? Tuanza, don't you know that Gao Ben escaped from Qinshui and gathered more than 300 puppet troops to flee to Yongji, and met with the Oshima squadron that rushed to reinforce him halfway, and at this time he was frantically rushing to Qinshui to forcibly attack the city? ”

Lei Yunfeng heard Wang Shoucheng report such a surprising cold material, so frightened that he burst out of sweat the size of a bean, grabbed the phone and shouted: "Deputy Regiment Commander, I order you to lead two companies of the 13th Battalion to immediately reinforce the Four City Gates, and you must arrive in ten minutes." ”

The sudden change caught Lei Yunfeng off guard, because he only deployed 14 battalions and 6 companies to hold the West City Gate, and now the Japanese army has as many as five or six hundred troops, frantically rushing towards Qinshui, and will inevitably launch the most ferocious attack on the West City Gate.

How could a company, exhausted from continuous combat and unable to recuperate, be able to hold back the attack of the Japanese army's five or six hundred troops with firepower?

What especially puzzled him was that when he surrounded and hunted the Gao Ben squadron, it was he who personally killed the murderer Gao Ben who held Pang Yuting hostage, how could this bastard escape from Qinshui from the dead, gather nearly 300 Japanese puppet troops, and join the Oshima squadron, where is the problem?

He now has no time to care about how Gao Ben came back from the dead, escaped from Qinshui and gathered the remnants to make a comeback. The most important thing now is how to block the large Japanese army from attacking the West City Gate and hold out until the Japanese planes fly to Qinshui to carry out bombing.

If the attacking Japanese army could not be blocked outside the city before the Japanese planes flew to bomb Qinshui, once the Japanese army broke through the west gate and entered the city, they would immediately build fortifications to resist, and promptly inform the 71st Brigade General Takeda Shoicsuke that Qinshui City had been occupied, and give up the aircraft and artillery bombing Qinshui, this Japanese army would not have been bombed by the Japanese planes and annihilated.

Lei Yunfeng looked at Su Xiaoyan anxiously and asked, "Have you received a communication message between the 71st Brigade of the Japanese Army and the Oshima Squadron?" ”

"Report to the boss, I haven't received any information about this yet." Su Xiaoyan looked at Lei Yunfeng's face coldly and frightened to death, not only cautiously reported.

She suddenly took the initiative to propose: "Boss, is it in the name of Gao Ben to send a report to the 71st Brigade of the Japanese Army again?" ”

"No, now that Gao Ben has escaped from Qinshui, although I don't know if he has already contacted the 71st Brigade with a radio, but he has joined up with the Oshima Squadron, and the Oshima Squadron will definitely contact the 71st Brigade under the arrival of the soldiers.

As soon as we send another telegram to the 71st Brigade at this time, we will certainly reveal the flaws, and now we can only determine how we will deal with the attacking enemy in the next step by closely monitoring the Japanese messages and telegrams. ”

"Please rest assured, boss, I will listen to the Japanese army's messages at any time and decipher them to you in the shortest possible time."

For the sake of insurance, Lei Yunfeng grabbed the phone and said, "Immediately find Director Han Nina of the Communications Office to listen to the phone, don't give me long-winded, find me someone quickly." ”

"Boss, I'm Han Nina, what are your arrangements, I'll ...... immediately."

"Han Nina, listen to me, from now on, you and Su Xiaoyan will stay in front of the radio for me, closely monitor all telecommunications between the 71st Brigade of the Japanese Army and the Oshima Squadron, and once intercepted, decipher and report to me as quickly as possible. LeTV

Don't be in a hurry to put the phone down, pass on my orders, and order the 'Cheetah Commando' to fly to the West City Gate within fifteen minutes, even if they fly. ”

Lei Yunfeng rushed to Qinshui according to the sudden gathering of large forces by the Japanese army, and did his best to make the latest combat deployment, hoping that nothing would be missed, causing heavy casualties to the troops that should not have occurred.

The five or six hundred Japanese puppet troops gathered together by the Oshima squadron and the Sakamoto squadron frantically pounced on the west gate of Qinshui City, and when there were still two hundred meters away from the city gate, the cunning Oshima squadron leader ordered the troops to suspend their advance.

When he found that there was only one company guarding the west gate of the city, he not only arrogantly ordered the artillery team: "Concentrate artillery fire to bombard the west gate of the city and cover the troops to launch a general attack." ”

An extremely tragic battle to block the city gate began.

Lei Yunfeng stood on the city tower and found that the Japanese artillery squad quickly deployed the artillery position, and not only nervously issued an order to the defending troops: "All withdraw into the city gate and hide in a solid hiding place, avoid the Japanese artillery fire, wait for the Japanese army to attack, and then enter the position to carry out the most fierce fire counterattack." ”

Although the Japanese army only had six mortars and was short of shells during rapid reinforcements, in order to break through the west gate held by the 54th Regiment and maximize the artillery fire, shells flew towards the city gate with a sharp whistling sound.

The West City Gate was suddenly attacked by artillery fire, and with the continuous artillery bombardment, waves of gunpowder smoke and flames exploded, and the entire West City Gate was shrouded in the smoke and flames of masonry, dust, and shrapnel that rose into the air.

The 1st Company of the 13th Battalion of the 54th Regiment, which was sticking to the West City Gate, received the order of Lei Yunfeng to avoid the fierce bombardment of the Japanese artillery, and quickly abandoned the position outside the gate and hid in a hidden place inside the city gate.

The squadron leader of Oshima calculated the frequency of the artillery squad firing shells, estimated that the shell consumption was approaching, ordered the shelling to stop, and the troops immediately launched the most fierce attack on the West City Gate, and five or six hundred Japanese puppet troops rushed to the West City Gate like a surging yellow tide.

Lei Yunfeng, who was standing on the city tower, immediately ordered the troops to rush out of the city gate as quickly as possible, occupy the defensive positions outside the city, and block the attacking Japanese puppet army.

No matter how good the weapons of a company are, it is difficult to stop the frantic attack of five or six hundred Japanese puppet troops.

In addition, the Japanese artillery bombardment just now, the fortifications outside the city were basically completely destroyed, and in this cruel situation of being outnumbered by the enemy, it was difficult for the 1st Company to repel the Japanese army's frantic attack even if it carried out the attack with the greatest firepower.

The soldiers in the positions outside the city fought extremely fiercely with the enemy, but it was still difficult to stop the enemy's powerful attack, and if there were no rapid reinforcements, the positions outside the city would soon be broken through by the Japanese and swarmed into the city.

At this critical moment, Han Nina, who had already been transferred to the destroyed turret of the Japanese army in Sujiazhuang in the south of the city with the regimental organs, deciphered the report of the Oshima squadron to the commander of the Takeda Brigade: The Chinese troops are holding the city, and it is difficult for our troops to break through, and the telegram requesting air reinforcements from the aircraft was immediately transmitted through Su Xiaoyan, who was following Lei Yunfeng.

Lei Yunfeng received the telegram and decisively ordered the first company to hold out for another ten minutes, waiting for the rapid reinforcement of the 14th battalion and the 5th company.

Five minutes later, the 5th Company of the 14th Battalion rushed to the west gate of the city as fast as possible and immediately entered the positional blocking battle.

Although the two companies carried out the most fierce fire strikes against the attacking enemy with the help of the simple fortifications at the city gate, they suffered heavy casualties under the frantic attack of the powerful Japanese army.
