Chapter 168: Dead to the End
"Machine gunners shoot and smash the armored vehicles of the little devils!"
"Tutu Tu Tu"
The sound of machine guns rang out in more than a dozen machine-gun fortifications at the south street entrance.
The machine gunners fired heavily at the armored convoy 150 meters away, and among these machine guns were the Gatling gun and the M2 heavy machine gun.
Although the number of the security regiment was much smaller, the firepower of the weapons was not weakened, and Li Hong used the advantage of firepower to make up for the disadvantage of few soldiers.
The devil armored car rushed up, bearing the brunt of the fire, and countless machine gun shells flew in, hitting bullet holes all over the armored car's hull.
"Tom, tom, tom!"
The armored vehicle fired several shells, which shelled near several bunker fortifications at the South Street entrance.
The courtyard of the civilian house collapsed, and several soldiers of the first battalion of the security regiment were hit by artillery fire, and they were killed and wounded in the fortifications.
It is surrounded by civilian buildings and can provide good protection for soldiers, and the artillery of armored vehicles has limited limitations in street fighting, and is not as useful as mortars or machine guns.
After a few shells were fired, several armored vehicles advancing in front were wounded all over their bodies by the machine gunners of the first battalion, and the armored soldiers in the vehicles were killed by indiscriminate gunfire.
Ordinary light machine guns may not be able to deal with armored vehicles, but Gatling and M2 heavy machine guns do not have the slightest pressure to take out devil armored vehicles.
"Set up a defensive position, quick!"
Under the orders of the commander, the little devil infantry scattered in all directions, looking for hidden spots on the side of the street to establish defensive positions, and some of the little devils shrank behind the wreckage of the armored vehicle and shot back.
"Da Da Da"
The two sides exchanged fire at Nanjiekou, and the gunfire became more and more intense, and the streets were full of stray bullets.
The little devil set up a defensive front, and a devil Shaozuo who was huddled in the courtyard called two devil squad leaders.
"Now that the firepower of the Chinese soldiers is attracted, you two squads attack from the flank."
"Hayi!"
The two devil squad leaders nodded, and then each took a squad of soldiers and quietly touched the flank of the first battalion.
The two squads of devils got into the alley, thinking that they didn't know what they were doing, and no soldiers of the security regiment found out, but in fact, the machine gunners of the first battalion had been waiting for the enemy to come up and send them to death.
The little devil advanced less than 100 meters to the alley, and the machine guns rang out all around.
A dense rain of bullets flew out of the windows of several buildings, and more than a dozen machine guns and submachine guns opened fire on the little devils in the alleys.
The windows of the building are basically sealed with bricks and stones, leaving only a shooting port, and it is difficult for the little devils to hit the soldiers of the security regiment inside.
"Da Da Da!"
"Tubu!"
The devil in front of the alley was caught off guard, covered with bullet holes, blood holes, and blood plasma was thrown, and dozens of people were killed and injured by the devil at once.
The alley is relatively narrow, more than a meter wide, and the concentration of little devils in the alley is equivalent to a cluster charge, and the machine gun is a large area when it is swept against the cluster target.
The machine gunners of the security regiment didn't need to shoot at all, and directly aimed at the little devil in the alley and pulled it to the end.
"Disperse, disperse, counterattack, counterattack!"
The little devil was beaten in a mess, and hurriedly looked for cover around the alley, or knelt on the ground and fought back with a gun.
The soldiers of the security regiment strike condescendingly from a high place, and the little devils counterattack on the ground without a little advantage of terrain.
Of course, the little devils are not stupid, there are houses on both sides of the alley, and they hurriedly smashed open the wooden doors of the houses with the butts of their guns and hid in.
"The grenadiers prepare for the shelling and blow up the fortifications of the building in front." The Devil Squad Leader ordered loudly.
More than a dozen devil grenadiers put down their grenadiers, quickly set up a firing position, and aimed at the building in front.
Just as the grenadiers were about to fire stray bullets, machine guns suddenly rang out on the roofs not far from the alley.
Five or six machine gunners of the security regiment have been hiding on the roof of the house without revealing the target, and now the little devil has just become a live target.
"Ahh......h
The devil grenadiers screamed and fell to the ground after being shot, and the rest of the little devils fled into the house to avoid the bullets.
The machine gunners did not give the enemy a chance to breathe, and after a single shot, they threw a dozen grenades at the little devils outside the courtyard of the houses in a row.
An explosion sounded, several houses collapsed, and many little devils were buried in the rubble.
The machine gunners of the security regiment withdrew after the fight, and they ran along the eaves and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
The little devil who was attacked got up from the ground and looked around with his weapon for the security regiment soldiers on the roof, but there was no one to be seen.
"Bagaya Road, Bagaya Road!"
One of the devil squad leaders was buried under the rubble, and another devil scolded angrily.
The corpses of the little devils were scattered everywhere in the alleys and houses, and most of the little devils in the two squads were annihilated.
Seeing that the sneak attack from the flank failed, the leader of the devil squad had no choice but to withdraw from the alley with his troops.
The little devils who attacked on South Street were blocked, and the attacks of the little devils on Central Street and North Street were also frustrated again and again.
Not only that, but the tanks and armored vehicles of the little devils were basically destroyed by the soldiers of the security regiment, and more than a dozen officers of the devils were sniped.
Since the two sides started a street battle, the little devil has suffered heavy casualties, and the casualties have reached five or six hundred, Wu Teng Xinnan had no choice but to order to stop the attack and change the offensive deployment again.
The fighting stopped, and there were only occasional fragments of gunfire in the streets.
Houses near the street are full of bullet holes, rubble has accumulated on the ground, dozens of houses have collapsed, and there are ruins and broken walls everywhere, and smoke of gunfire is everywhere.
The soldiers of the security regiment and the little devils confronted each other on both sides of the street less than 300 meters away, and the soldiers on both sides stood on their positions, gnawing on field rations, and no one dared to make a fire to make food.
Because the positions of the two sides were so close to each other that the battle was about to break out at any time, the soldiers kept their guns on their bodies and tensed their nerves, sometimes observing the situation outside the fortifications.
After the battle, Li Hong went to inspect the situation of the various battalions.
"Tuanza, Tuanza......" The soldiers of the security regiment shouted Li Hong, who came over.
"Brothers, we are not happy, and the little devils are not much better, our security team will fight to the death with the little devils, and the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road!" Li Hong boosted his morale and asked about the casualties of the various units.
"Tuanza, as long as the little devil dares to come, we will fight the enemy to the end, and the brave will win when we meet on a narrow road!"
Li Hong patrolled from the north street to the south street, and although the soldiers of the security regiment had a lot of energy in continuous fighting, the morale of the soldiers was high and they still maintained their combat effectiveness.
After inspecting the front-line troops, he went to the 2nd Battalion of the 321st Regiment and the Jinsui Army to learn about the transfer of civilians.
"Battalion Commander Hu, have all the civilians in the city been transferred out of the city?"
"Report to Chief Li, most of the people have been transferred, but ......" Hu Wenchang had a look of embarrassment on his face.
"What's wrong?"
"There were a lot of people who really couldn't make sense, so we took them out of the city, and as a result, these people ran back because they couldn't bear their family property."
Li Hong looked at the helpless Hu Wenchang and asked, "How many households have not been transferred?" ”
"There are more than seventy households."
"And so many?" Li Hong frowned, and said slowly: "Camp Chief Hu, let's do it, you take me to meet them." ”
Hu Wenchang led the way in front, and Li Hong followed him through two streets and alleys to the civilian shelter.
There are more than 100 men, women and children in the shelter, they are all local people of Zhuang County, who have lived here for generations, and the people have a certain affection for their hometown, so they are reluctant to leave their homes and businesses.
