Chapter 644: Breaking the West Gate, Takayuki Aono is furious!
"Your Excellency Shaozo, it is Xicheng, and the enemy is attacking the city. The opponent's artillery fire is fierce, and the defenders of Xicheng ask for reinforcements! In less than half a minute, Captain Takayuki Aono took the phone and quickly said to Yuki Miyashita, with surprise in his tone.
Worried about what's coming, sure enough, there is an enemy army attacking Gaoyang at night!
Hearing this, Miyashita Yuki walked quickly to Takayuki Aono, took the phone directly and ordered to the commander of the Japanese army in Xicheng on the other end of the phone: "You drop, you must defend the city head and the city gate for me, resist, I will immediately send troops to reinforce you!" ”。
"Hai, Your Excellency Shaozuo!" A heavy voice answered on the other end of the phone.
And Yuki Miyashita quickly walked to the location where the map was placed at the headquarters with Takayuki Aono and several other Japanese staff officers, and looked at the map of Gaoyang. The details of Gaoyang City are drawn in detail, and the important traffic arteries in the city are clearly marked in all parts of the city, and the important traffic arteries at the streets and alleys are clearly marked.
"Your Excellency Shaozuo, judging from the sound of guns and cannons throughout the city, the main force of the enemy's night attack seems to be attacking the West Gate! The rest of the north, south and east gates, with only a small number of gunfire, should be the opponent's feint! Takayuki Aono immediately analyzed the voice of Yuki Miyashita.
Takayuki Aono's ears are unusually keen, at least judging from the current sound of gunfire, the main direction of the opponent's attack is indeed placed at the west gate.
It's just that Yuki Miyashita has a vague uneasiness in his heart, and this uneasiness has never been there.
"Judging from the reports of the troops defending the city, the other party seems to be a unit of the Eighth Route Army. Although their uniforms are similar to those of the National Army, the armbands are different. Miyashita Yuki said solemnly, if it is the regular army of the Eighth Route Army, it will be troublesome. This is a Chinese army that is more difficult to deal with than the regular army of the Nationalist Army, and if you are careless, things may not go well.
Takayuki Aono said in a relaxed manner: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, we are guarding the city. Even if the opponent's artillery fire was fierce, the attack on the west gate was very fierce. But on such a cold and dark night, it is almost impossible to take down Gaoyang City, which is heavily garrisoned by my troops, in a night attack. ”。
"Can't be careless, Chief of Staff, you personally lead a team of people and rush to Ximen to supervise the battle! I will hand over the reserve of 300 men and horses to you, and you must guard the west gate for me!" Miyashita Yuki thought about it, at this time, the gunfire in the direction of the West Gate was too fierce, and the other party was able to fire a few signal flares, which was enough to show that at least the Chinese army that attacked Gaoyang City at night was a regular army, at least the combat effectiveness would not be weak.
Facing Gaoyang City, which is located near Baiyangdian, Yuki Miyashita never despises the troops of the Eighth Route Army, whether it is a regular army or a guerrilla.
Seeing this, Takayuki Aono knew that Yuki Miyashita attached great importance to it, so he paused heavily and said: "Please rest assured, Your Excellency Shaozuo, I will go and prepare immediately." ”。
"Yo Xi, please Aono-kun!" Yuki Miyashita nodded and said.
And Aono Takayuki responded to a few words, and hurriedly marched to the west gate with three hundred fresh troops.
At this time, Simon's battle was already in a white-hot stage.
On the head of the city at the west gate, there were explosions one after another, and there were more than 100 Japanese troops guarding the west gate, and 300 soldiers of the Imperial Alliance Army assisted in defending the city. It can be seen that the West Gate is the key defense direction of the little devils.
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
One by one, the shells fell on the head of the West Gate City, and the brilliant explosion and fire blew up the entire West Gate City, Wang Chengzhu, who was responsible for the artillery cover outside the city, more than a dozen mortars of the artillery of the command post and several Type 92 infantry guns of the Japanese army captured from Baoding City, concentrated artillery fire on the Japanese fire point at the head of the West Gate City to carry out fire bombardment.
After a bombardment cover, Zhang Dabiao's troops and Zhou Hua's two divisions, which took advantage of the storm, totaled more than 1,000 people, and concentrated their superior forces to storm the West Gate, which was only defended by more than 400 puppet army soldiers. The battle was fierce, and the two sides fought fiercely.
The Japanese puppet army stationed at the West Gate hurriedly met the battle, and because of the sudden large-scale artillery attack by Wang Chengzhu, almost the first time the light and heavy machine gun fire points of the little devils were blown to pieces. The infantry at the head of the city was also crying for their fathers and mothers when they were bombed, and their stumps and broken arms flew everywhere, and the screams were endless.
"Give it to me! Brothers, kill! ”
Outside the city, Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, shouted the slogan of the charge and ordered the soldiers of the headquarters to rush and charge under the cover of artillery fire.
The same is true of Zhou Hua's subordinates, who launched an attack at the same time, and the two troops cooperated with each other, and soon arrived at the city and killed at the west gate.
"Baga Ya Road, Eighth Route Army, fight me, kill them, block them. Block them! City gates, city gates, transfer another detachment, give me the city gates! ”
According to the commander of the first squadron of the Japanese army, Captain Yotai Akai, who was guarding the west gate, was at the head of the city where there were explosions one after another, when he suddenly saw a group of dozens of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, holding explosive bags in their hands, rushing towards the city gate, and his eyes were pierced.
It soon occurred to me that this was a new group of soldiers who wanted to pile up explosives bags at the West Gate and prepare to blast the city gate!
Once the gates are blown open and the enemy's superior forces rush into the city, everything is over.
It's just that it's too late to see at this time, and when the little devil Akai Yota saw it for the first time, the new group of soldiers who blasted the West Gate City Gate had already piled most of the explosive bags at the West Gate City Gate.
The fuse sounded after it was lit, and in less than ten seconds, the west gate of Gaoyang was completely shattered by a loud explosion.
"Brothers, kill me! Rush, take Gaoyang City! Zhang Dabiao and Zhou Hua were extremely excited, directly commanded the main force of the infantry, and under the cover of Wang Chengzhu's artillery fire, they commanded the soldiers of all units to rush into Gaoyang City from the blasted west gate.
Seeing that nothing could be done, the West Gate had been broken, and Akai Yota hated it in his heart, "Withdraw, withdraw quickly!" ”。
With an order, the remnants of the Ximen Japanese puppet army, who had already been frightened, went down the city head along the road of the city wall with Akai Yangtai, and retreated directly along several streets in Xicheng District to the inner city.
Zhang Dabiao and Zhou Hua entered from the west gate, and pushed the remnants of Akai Yota to the inner city.
At this time, Takayuki Aono, who received the order of Yuki Miyashita, had already rushed to the west gate with 300 elite Japanese troops to reinforce him. On the way, he met Yota Akai who was coming in the direction of the inner city in a panic.
"Nani? Simon lost? Baga Ya Road, you piece of shit! How many people are on the other side? Catching the rushed Akai Yota, Ryuichi Aono was furious after asking.
Akai Yangtai trembled, and said with a wry smile: "Chief of Staff, the Eighth Route Army has at least two battalions of elite, and they also have several infantry guns and more than a dozen mortars as artillery cover, bombarding the head of our West Gate City, the Imperial Alliance Army and the Imperial Army were bombed at the first time Heavy casualties, and when we reflected, the opposing infantry had taken advantage of the gap in artillery cover to kill near the city gate!" ”。
