After receiving Xu Wen's order, he had already aimed and locked the north gate of Changxing in advance, and more than 30 tanks around it, including the Tiger, Leopard and the T34, all opened fire one after another.

Boom Boom Boom! More than 30 high-explosive grenades roared and bombarded the north gate and the city.

Boom boom boom! A violent explosion suddenly sounded, and a dazzling red light rose from the ground.

Under the red light, the originally closed wooden gate was hit by a cannonball, and it was shattered on the spot.

The city gate building, which had been in disrepair for a long time, was also hit by two tank shells and collapsed in a violent explosion, turning it into a pile of ruins.

At least a dozen devil soldiers, too late to dodge, were all buried alive below.

Other shells also fell one after another inside and outside the city walls, exploding violently, and the blast wave of the explosion raged in the red light, and the devil defenders at the north gate suffered heavy casualties.

Seeing that the city gate was blown open and the city gate building was destroyed, the soldiers of the reserve regiment immediately rushed out from behind the tanks and armored vehicles.

Under the command of Chen Zhenglun, he rushed forward with his weapon in hand.

When the independent brigade was reorganized in Wuxi before, because Xu Wen used almost all the exchange points to arm the three main forces of the tank regiment, the air defense regiment, and the armored infantry regiment.

They could no longer afford to equip the reserve regiment with more advanced American or German equipment, so before Xu Wen's defeat in Suzhou, they still used Japanese weapons.

However, after Xu Wen killed Gu Shoufu, he was rewarded with another million points exchanged.

With points in hand, on the way from Wuxi to this side, Xu Wen uniformly reequipped them with American-style equipment.

In the system exchange shop, if you give all soldiers from head to toe to exchange for a complete set of American Army individual equipment, it costs 1000 points.

There are more than 1,000 soldiers in the reserve regiment, and if they all exchange for a complete set of American-style equipment, they will need more than one million points at once.

The million points earned by killing Gu Shoufu is Xu Wen's last capital, and of course he won't use it all.

In addition, a large number of Japanese-style weapons captured before were eliminated by other units, including hundreds of light and heavy machine guns, although they are not as good as German and American equipment, but they are also useful.

Therefore, Xu Wen only exchanged a batch of American Thomson submachine guns and Garand semi-automatic rifles for them, as for the American military uniforms, military shoes, military caps and other non-weapon items in the full set of American equipment, they didn't ask for anything.

In this way, Xu Wen spent a total of 200,000 points, basically building this army into two-thirds American-style and one-third Japanese-style mixed elite troops.

However, this reserve regiment was armed with as many as 400 light and heavy machine guns and submachine guns, plus hundreds of Garand semi-automatic rifles that could fire continuously, and their firepower was at least several times ahead of the Japanese in terms of equal strength.

Under the cover of the fire suppression of their own tanks and armored units, the soldiers of the reserve regiment easily rushed into the city.

A part of the soldiers quickly attacked the city with submachine guns and light machine guns, and eliminated the wounded remnants of the devils on the city head with three strikes and five divisions, and occupied and controlled the entire north gate.

The main force continued its attack along the streets and into the depths of the city.

Seeing that the attack was going well, Xu Wen said to Sun Fugui and Chen Zhenglun by radio: "Chief of Staff, you bring ten tanks into the city from the north gate, and coordinate with the infantry of the reserve regiment to attack and capture the whole city."

Fugui and I, each with half of the tanks and armored troops, flanked the east and west gates and the south gate in a roundabout way!

We must annihilate the defenders here as quickly as possible, and not let go of a single enemy! Then continue south! ”

"Yes!"

"Roger! Got it! Chen Zhenglun and Sun Fugui agreed with a bang, and immediately led their own teams to act separately with Xu Wen.

At this time, there were still thirty-five tanks left in the separate brigade, and one hundred and a hundred armored vehicles and Humvee military vehicles.

Soon, Xu Wen, Chen Zhenglun, and Sun Fugui each led more than ten tanks and thirty tanks, and the soldiers acted in three ways.

There are thousands of infantry from the reserve regiment on the north gate, and Chen Zhenglun has rich command experience, so it goes without saying that everything is going smoothly.

Xu Wen and Sun Fugui each led their own people, and they outflanked the east and west of the city separately, using tank guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, and vehicle-mounted general-purpose machine guns to bombard the devils on the east and west doors in a wild and indiscriminate bombing, intensive strafing.

Originally, the devils on these two city gates were attacked at the north gate, and most of their troops were transferred to the north gate for reinforcements.

There were not many troops left behind, and they were quickly killed and wounded by Xu Wen and Sun Fugui with such a fierce blow.

Subsequently, Xu Wen and Sun Fugui acted in unison through radio, leaving more than a dozen armored vehicles each to continue the blockade to prevent devils from escaping from the east and west gates.

The two of them led the remaining tanks and armored vehicles to continue to march to the south gate of Changxing, and finally met in the south of the city, completely surrounding the entire Changxing county.

When they arrived at the south gate, there was really a group of more than 50 devil soldiers, trying to take advantage of the chaos to escape.

was hit by Xu Wen and them, and without the slightest hesitation, Xu Wen immediately ordered all tanks and armored vehicles to open fire.

More than 20 tanks and more than 30 armored vehicles, and the Humvee military vehicles were firing with full firepower, creating a very terrifying and dense firepower network.

Dozens of devils didn't even have a chance to dodge and escape, so they were beaten into a sieve one after another, and fell down screaming one after another.

At this time, the reserve regiment and some tank and armored vehicle units were also under the command and leadership of Chen Zhenglun, and successfully killed the Japanese army headquarters in the city, and successfully joined forces with Zhou Weiguo and others who were stuck there.

At this time, the main force of the devils in the city had already been defeated by the independent brigade, and the four gates were also blocked.

After receiving reinforcements from Chen Zhenglun and others, Zhou Weiguo, Li Wu and others immediately led their troops to launch a counterattack against the devils who besieged them before, relying on their absolute superiority in strength and equipment firepower.

It was easily defeated, and then a ferocious pursuit was launched.

Chen Zhenglun also took advantage of the situation to command the soldiers of the reserve regiment to quickly capture all parts of the city and control the whole city.

After Xu Wen and the others killed the devils who tried to break through from the south of the city, they also sent some tanks to enter the city through the south gate to assist the troops in the city to clear out the remnants of the enemy.

Surrounded on all sides and with no way to escape, the remnants of the devils were soon wiped out by Zhou Weiguo and others.

The battle was of no use for even an hour from the beginning to the end of the general offensive.

After the battle, Zhou Weiguo and others came to the south gate in a hurry, and saluted Xu Wen: "Brigade commander, fortunately, Changxing has been taken all!" ”

Xu Wen stood on the Tiger tank, raised his hand to them and saluted in return, and commanded in a deep voice: "Very good, well done, without further ado, everyone doesn't have to clean up the battlefield, immediately gather in the south of the city, we will continue to go south and go straight to Huzhou!" ”
