In the blink of an eye, the time came to evening.

The attacks of the New 1st Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment on the Taiyuan Dadongmen, Xiaodongmen, Yingzemen and Chengenmen were not smooth, and the two regiments organized many attacks, all of which were beaten back by the puppet army.

Not only did they fail to break through the city defenses, but they also sacrificed more than 100 people.

This time, the 8th Mixed Brigade of the puppet army seems to have eaten thallium and iron, and it is much more tenacious than before.

In the past, when encountering the Eighth Route Army, as long as the situation was slightly wrong, the puppet army would immediately lay down its arms and surrender.

And even if they shoot, most of them only shoot at the empty place, or simply shoot at the sky, but this time is different, this time the 8th Mixed Brigade of the puppet army is really fighting.

And it fought tenaciously.

However, the Separate Regiment remained stationary.

When the new 1st and 2nd regiments organized an attack, the independent regiment never engaged infantry to attack, but only used artillery to bombard a section of the city wall behind Xihaizi.

……

On the tower of the city at the West Gate of Water.

Wan Yong, Ge Fugui and Pan Ren were hiding behind the battlements and snooping.

Pan Ren asked puzzledly: "Big brother, what is the Eighth Route Army doing?" ”

"Idiot, can't you see that?" Wan Yong said angrily, "The Eighth Route Army obviously wants to open a gap in the city wall through artillery, and then attack the city from the gap!" ”

Pan Ren immediately rolled his eyes at Wan Yong.

Little white face, eating soft rice, Lao Tzu didn't ask you.

Wan Yong turned his head and said to Ge Fugui again: "Commander Ge, according to this method, the section of the city wall in Xihaizi will last until midnight at most, and when the city wall collapses, someone will have to block it." ”

"This difficult task will be entrusted to your 3rd Company."

"Why?" Pan Ren immediately became anxious, "Why are we in the 3rd Company?" ”

"Just because Lao Tzu is the battalion commander! That's it! Wan Yong snorted and left.

Seeing Wan Yong's figure go away, Pan Ren's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he said in a deep voice: "Big brother, what are you doing?" ”

"Shut up, you shit knows what to do." Ge Fugui said angrily, "Are you trying to kill your mother, as well as your sister-in-law and Jiu'er?" ”

Pan Ren's face immediately fell.

Yoshio Shinozuka, an old devil, has lost his conscience.

Captured the families of many officers of their 8th Mixed Brigade.

It is precisely because of this that the two battalions guarding the big and small east gates, as well as the Yingze Gate and the Cheng'en Gate, will work so hard, and they would have surrendered long ago.

……

In the evening, Li Yunlong came to the position of the artillery company in a rage.

"Pillars!" As soon as Li Yunlong came up, he roared angrily, "What are you kid doing to eat?" ”

"It's just such a section of the city wall, and I haven't seen it collapse for a long time, can you do it on a dog day?"

"Captain!" Yu Chengzhu stepped forward and said with a sad face, "The devil poured ash into that section of the city wall, so it is more difficult to fight than I expected. ”

Li Yunlong said: "16 mountain cannons and rapid-fire cannons are not enough? ”

Yu Chengzhu said: "Regiment commander, this is not a matter of more artillery and less artillery, if there is 1 300mm flat-fire gun, one shell can penetrate the city wall!" But now we only have 37mm flat-fire guns. ”

Li Yunlong said: "Damn, aren't there still 11 75 mountain cannons?" ”

"Mountain artillery is not a flat-fire gun." Yu Chengzhu said, "There are different types of shells. ”

"The shells of the mountain artillery explode one piece, and it is very easy to hit people, but the effect of hitting the city wall is very limited, and the thickness of the Taiyuan city wall must be more than 10 meters, and the grenade cannot penetrate it at all."

"The caliber of the 37mm kinetic energy bullet is too small, and it can't be penetrated."

"So you can only peel it like an onion, layer by layer."

Li Yunlong said: "Peel off layer by layer? How long does that have to be peeled? ”

Yu Chengzhu silently calculated in his heart for a moment, and said: "Commander, give me another 8 hours, quasi!" ”

Li Yunlong said: "Okay, Lao Tzu will give you another 8 hours, no, Lao Tzu will give you another 10 hours, before dawn tomorrow, you must peel off the city wall, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill you." ”

"Yes!" Yu Chengzhu snapped upright, and said loudly, "Rest assured, the regiment commander, the artillery battalion guarantees the completion of the task!" ”

"Humph!" Li Yunlong snorted, turned around and left, and asked the guard Niu Dan as he walked, "Niu Dan, Staff Officer Wang hasn't come back yet?" ”

Niu Dan shook his head: "It doesn't seem to be yet." ”

Li Yunlong said: "What are you doing on this dog day?" ”

……

"Hello! Hello! Hello! ”

Wang Yan sneezed several times in a row.

Sun Ming on the side said with concern: "Lao Wang, don't you get cold, right?" ”

"No, it won't." Wang Yan said suddenly, "I won't get cold if you get cold." ”

Sun Ming sighed, and then said, "Lao Wang, is your method reliable?" ”

Wang Yan said: "I don't know if it's reliable or not, I have to try it to know." ”

As he spoke, Wang Yan pressed the switch hard, and the pendulum fixed on a wooden shelf began to clatter.

Sun Ming on the other side started the timer.

Fifteen seconds later, a wooden board popped out.

Dare to love this is a timer switch designed by Wang Yan "himself", and I don't know what to do?

Wang Yan tried the strength of the plank, shook his head and said, "It seems that the strength is still not enough, and we must continue to strengthen it!" ”

Sun Ming said: "If you want me to say don't bother with it, you are simply whimsical and impossible to succeed." ”

"How is it impossible?" Wang Yan shook his head and said, "What if?" What if it happens? How many fewer deaths can be made? ”

"Okay." Sun Ming could only compromise, shook his head and said, "I really can't do anything about you, I hope you can do this." ”

……

In the inner city, the headquarters of the 1st Army of the Japanese Army.

After the first few hours of panic, the staff officers of the command had calmed down.

In particular, the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army stormed outside the East Gate, Yingze Gate, and Cheng'en Gate for an afternoon, but it was never allowed to enter the gate, which gave the Japanese staff officers enough confidence.

"It's better than Your Excellency the Commander." Takayoshi Tanaka said, "Using the officers' families as a threat, the combat effectiveness of the 8th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Alliance Army has really come up!" ”

"This afternoon, we repelled more than a dozen attacks of the Eighth Route Army in a row!"

"They also killed hundreds of Eighth Route Army, which was simply unimaginable before."

"But it's also a double-edged sword." Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand and said, "This kind of last resort is better to use less." ”

"It's okay to use it once or twice, but if you use it too many times, the Imperial Allied Army will inevitably deviate from the Imperial Army, and it will be a matter of time before you completely betray it."

"Hai, Your Excellency Commander."

"By the way, has the 110th Division been deployed?"

"Yes, the 110th Division has completed its assembly and is ready to go."

"However, there seems to be something wrong with the Jingcheng section of the Zhengtai Railway."

"Nani? Is there a problem with the Jingcheng section of the Zhengtai Railway at this time? ”

"Yes, there are several bridges in the guerrilla section of the Jizhong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army."
