"Company commander, the rest of the little devils are in the yard next to them." On the assault company position, the machine gun squad leader reported while firing.

"The devil reacts quite quickly!" The company commander sighed.

Then a sneer flashed at the corner of his mouth, and he continued: "But don't worry too much, there are more than 100 of them, no matter how much they drill the yard, they are dying, and sooner or later they will be wiped out, and it will not affect the overall situation." ”

"We gathered around them, and they were blocked in those yards and eaten slowly, so as not to let them slip away."

On the battlefield in the west of the city, Commander Wang received the news that the east of the city had been breached one step ahead of the devil.

Also received the latest order from Li Hao.

"Commander Zhou, the command headquarters asked us to prepare to go into the city to chase and kill the little devils, it should be that the little devils on the city are about to retreat." After reading the order, Commander Wang analyzed.

Commander Zhou affirmed: "The east of the city has been breached, and there is no point in continuing to defend the city, and we will make dumplings." As long as the Japanese commanders are not stupid, they will definitely let them abandon the city walls and retreat to the city to fight with us in the streets. ”

"Then our firepower advantage will be gone, and there will be a lot of worries."

"I still have a full main battalion in my hand that hasn't moved, so let them prepare for the assault now."

Commander Wang said: "There is also a battalion of the Twelfth Regiment that has not moved, as long as the Japanese puppet army at the head of the city has moved, our two battalions will be killed together." ”

At the head of the city, the captain of the Japanese army was thinking about how to retreat from under the nose of the Eighth Route Army.

He faced the same problems as the garrison east of the city.

The Eighth Route Army was staring at the city outside the city and retreating rashly, they would definitely pounce on them like hungry wolves, enter Datong City, and fight a crushing battle for themselves.

"Sir, lead all the wounded soldiers to stay behind the palace, but you must leave most of the light and heavy machine guns behind, otherwise the Eighth Route Army will find out as soon as the main force withdraws." A wounded squadron leader came over and asked for battle.

In his opinion, if he is injured, even if he retreats to the city to fight in the streets, he will not escape death, it is better to take the initiative to ask for a battle to stay here and die happily, and finally he can leave a good reputation.

The captain couldn't ask for it, and looked at the squadron leader and was very pleased to order: "Then the city fortifications will be entrusted to you." ”

"Heavy weapons have almost zero role in street fighting and can become a burden to the troops. I leave you all the heavy weapons, and the light machine guns for two-thirds. ”

"Nakata-kun, immediately send the wounded to the various machine gun positions, and they will take over all the heavy machine guns and two-thirds of the light machine guns, and the others will retreat with me, and we will go into the city to fight street battles with the Eighth Route Army, and strive to drag out the battle until dawn."

"Hey!" Another squadron leader immediately took the order.

The seriously wounded who were able to walk acted on their own, and after taking over the position, they became machine gunners.

The wounded, who could not walk but could move their hands, were carried by their comrades to the machine-gun position as ammunition men.

The seriously wounded who couldn't move their hands and feet, but were still conscious, were carried behind the battlements, and each person issued a few grenades, and when the Eighth Route Army rushed to the foot of the city wall, they threw grenades out, and at worst, they could detonate the grenades after the Eighth Route Army rushed to their side.

After doing all this, the captain decisively began to retreat with more than 300 subordinates.

After attacking the position outside the city and determining that the Japanese army might retreat at any time, the two regiment commanders kept an eye on the city, trying to judge whether the enemy had withdrawn from the sound of gunfire coming from the city.

Looking at it, Head Wang's brows suddenly furrowed.

"There's a situation in the city!"

Head Zhou's brows were also furrowed, and he replied while continuing to observe the city: "There is something wrong." ”

"Although the firepower of the light and heavy machine guns has not decreased, the firepower of the guns has obviously been much more chaotic."

"There are also some heavy machine guns with intermittent firepower, professional machine gunners will definitely not be able to fight like this, it should be that the machine gunners have been replaced."

Head Wang didn't speak, his brain was racing, thinking about the mystery behind this matter.

It didn't take long for a scene that I often encountered on the battlefield to appear in my mind.

Every time the Japanese retreated, almost all of the people who were left behind were wounded.

Now that they are in a hurry to retreat to the city to fight in the streets, will they repeat their old tricks?

Head Wang hurriedly said this idea, and when he heard it, Head Zhou agreed: "It must be so." ”

"Street fighting is all about excitement and flexibility."

"It is difficult for the wounded to maneuver, and retreating to the city to fight in the streets is also to death, it is better to stay in the city to confuse us, make the best use of everything, and buy time for the main force to retreat."

"If I were a Japanese commander, I would definitely do it."

"Commander Wang, I suggest that the troops rush out immediately and enter Datong City as quickly as possible."

"If it's too late, the devil will definitely run away."

Commander Zhou's words strengthened Commander Wang's judgment, and he immediately made an order.

"Then we'll attack."

The combat effectiveness of wounded soldiers is much inferior to that of intact soldiers, and in the face of attacks, the reaction speed is much slower.

In order to operate all the light and heavy machine guns left behind by the captain, almost all the movable wounded at the head of the city were used, and there was not a single reserve machine gunner.

If the wounded are killed, the light and heavy machine guns he operates can only withdraw from the battle.

The mortars of the two regiments fired only ten rounds at the head of the city, and the light and heavy machine gun fire was reduced by nearly half.

"Old Zhou, our judgment is right, there are only some palace troops left on the city wall, and if we kill one, there will be one less." Head Wang shouted excitedly.

Without waiting for Commander Zhou to speak, he directly ordered: "The trumpeter blows the trumpet of the charge, the artillery and heavy machine guns cover, the whole army attacks, blows open the city gate, and kills into Datong City......"

"Tick tock...... Tick tock......"

The sound of the charge soon resounded across the battlefield.

The artillery fired harder than before, using their fastest rate of fire to hit the few remaining shells into the city.

On the offensive position, more than 800 fighters, some with rifles with bayonets, some with submachine guns, and some with explosives bags, ran out like wolves......

There were fewer and fewer light and heavy machine guns still firing at the head of the city, and the soldiers were like no one, and in a few minutes troops rushed to the foot of the city walls.

The fastest is the demolition team, which quickly rushes into the city gate......

Two minutes later, he ran out of the city gate hole, and just hid on both sides of the city gate hole, the explosion of "boom ......" sounded in the city gate hole.

Thick black smoke poured out of the city gate cave along with the flames, and the city gate, which was closed just now, had been blown to pieces at this moment......

"Kill ...... with me"

The commander of the battalion closest to the city gate shouted, and rushed towards the city gate filled with gunpowder with a box cannon.

On the other side of the city wall, the captain with more than 300 remnants had just left the city wall less than 400 meters.

As soon as the roaring explosion sounded, everyone knew that the city gate was broken.

The captain was very anxious, and immediately shouted: "The Eighth Route Army has entered the city, and our speed must be accelerated, and we must not let them catch up, otherwise someone will definitely be killed by them." ”
