"Those madmen are coming with explosives bags! Run, run! ”

The devil machine gunner constantly called for the driver in the cabin to escape.

As a result, due to panic, he was so busy that he was in a hurry, and the bullet chain could not be replaced, and the firepower was missing, which made the defenders more relieved and unscrupulous.

"Bang!"

At this moment, a hot 7.92mm caliber medium rifle bullet accurately hit the devil machine gunner's face, knocking him all over the face.

His exclamation came to an abrupt end at this moment.

The devil driver of this tank has already realized the gravity of the situation through the words of the machine gunner.

It was impossible to retreat, so I had to drive the tank and crash into the houses on the side of the street.

When the rest of the devil tank soldiers learned of the situation, they also began to scramble to follow suit.

But in the end, there were still some tanks that did not escape in time, and finally there were some defenders with explosive bags, who were not swept down by the rain of bullets and bullets of the devils, and rushed into the tank group of the devils.

As a result, the ignited explosive bags were thrown under the devil tank by them.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom! ——”

Explosions resounded in the tank group, blowing up the tanks to scrap metal.

At the same time, the large army of defenders behind also entered the devil tank convoy at this time.

"Kill!"

"Rush!"

Thousands of soldiers roared in unison with righteous indignation, and under the leadership of the commander Chen Qinghua, they quickly engaged with the oncoming devil infantry and strangled each other.

At this time, the two sides have collided and mixed together.

The devil tank lost its original strategic role, and in order to prevent it from being frantically blasted by the defenders, they crashed into the houses on both sides and fled in all directions.

Most of the cavalry and infantry of the devils were ordered by Sekihara Matsujiro to advance in a roundabout way along both sides of the castle wall.

Therefore, the infantry that attacked from the front with tank fighting vehicles was actually only a small part.

A brigade of more than 1,000 infantry is scattered in the streets and alleys at this moment.

The devil infantry in each street and alley is actually less than a hundred.

As for the defenders, although more than half of them were killed or wounded in the bombing of the previous devil fighters and the advance of the tank convoy.

At this moment, there are still nearly 10,000 people in the 1st Independent Brigade, the Garrison Guard Regiment, and the militia that came spontaneously.

Quantitative change produces qualitative change!

In particular, Chen Qinghua, Yan Shouyi, and other high-ranking officers of the defenders took the lead in the charge without fear of death, which greatly boosted the morale of the defenders, and they broke out one after another with 12 percent combat effectiveness.

Chen Qinghua had an iron broadsword in his hand, and he took the lead in killing the devil people, and in a rampage, he had already cut down seven or eight devil soldiers.

At this time, he was already covered in blood, and his robe was soaked in blood.

Under his leadership, the devil soldiers in this main street were killed to the point that their heads were rolled off, and their corpses were strewn all over the field, and soon the blood stained the entire street.

However, because the fighting ability of the defenders is far inferior to that of the devil soldiers, especially the militia composed of ordinary people, they have not received any military training, and they have never been on the real battlefield.

At this moment, it is rare not to be intimidated by the bloody cruelty on the streets.

Their combat effectiveness is very low, and often three or five militiamen surround a devil soldier, and in the end, they are killed by this devil soldier one by one.

Therefore, Chen Qinghua's first department was able to gain the initiative on the battlefield on the main street, and it was all obtained by the soldiers with their own lives.

Finally, under the brave rush of the defenders who were not afraid of life and death, regardless of the cost, the devil soldiers on the main street gradually became overwhelmed, and finally turned around and fled backwards.

Chen Qinghua, who had already killed more than a dozen devil soldiers, saw that the devils were repulsed.

He immediately thrust his iron broadsword, which had drunk the blood of the Japanese robbers, into the ground, and at the same time bent down to pick up a light machine gun from the ground, and fired fiercely at the fleeing devils.

"Da Da Da! ……”

The light machine gun let out a rapid roar, and the dense rain of bullets suddenly pierced the backs of seven or eight devil soldiers, knocking them down one after another.

"Brothers, catch up! In one go, drive them out of Taiyuan City!"

Chen Qinghua emptied all the bullets in the machine gun, pulled out the saber inserted in the ground again, and raised his arms and shouted.

"Kill!"

"Chase!" Thousands of soldiers were like rainbows, and they all launched a pursuit of the devil with guns.

At the same time, the defenders of the rest of the streets also gradually occupied the initiative on the battlefield because of their absolute numerical superiority, and after a fierce fight to the death, they forced the devils back little by little.

However, all of these initiatives were fought by the soldiers who risked their lives.

Purely in terms of casualty ratio, the casualty ratio of the defenders is completely more than three times that of the devils, and the local battlefields are even five times or even seven or eight times that of the devils.

One can imagine how difficult it is to gain the upper hand in this war.

If it weren't for the latter group of militia, Chen Qinghua's 1st Independent Brigade and the Garrison Guard Regiment alone would have ended in defeat if they ran out.

However, the tenacity of the devil is still beyond the imagination of the defenders.

As they retreated backwards, the remaining devil soldiers slowly joined forces, and then relied on the city they had already occupied to put up a stubborn resistance.

The streets are so wide, and there are so many troops that can move at the same time.

In addition, the defenders' white-bladed stabbing is far inferior to the devil soldiers, so almost every time the defenders push forward, they have to pay a very painful price.

But Chen Qinghua had no choice, if he didn't completely drive these devil soldiers out of the city, Taiyuan City could fall under the iron hooves of devils at any time.

Especially if the south gate is not recaptured, once the devil reinforcements arrive, they can continue to pour into the city through the south gate.

Therefore, if you want to hold on to Taiyuan City, these ghost soldiers who rushed into the city must all be driven out.

No matter how big the price is, it will not hesitate!

An inch of mountains and rivers, an inch of blood, 100,000 young people and 100,000 soldiers!

Isn't that what you're talking about now? Is this the moment?

In the city of Taiyuan, all the people were soldiers, in order to drive the future enemy out of the city, where they passed, the streets and floors were almost all stained red by the blood of the defenders.

It was with such a fearless spirit that the defenders, under the brunt of Chen Qinghua's leading fight, recaptured the streets occupied by the devils little by little.

In the end, with the aggravation of casualties and the intimidation of the defending soldiers' fearless spirit, this group of devil soldiers who charged head-on finally retreated and turned into a rout.

Completely abandon the occupied city, along the city walls and some streets, and withdraw in the direction of the south gate.

"Nagata-kun, you see, this is Taiyuan City, the capital of Shanxi Province in China!

As long as this place is completely captured and occupied, it means that the whole of Shanxi will completely fall under the iron hooves of our Imperial Japanese Army!

He held out in the second war zone for so long, and his tiger regiment was so strong, didn't he finally surrender to the heavenly might of my Imperial Japanese Army? ”。

Sekihara Matsujiro stood by the battlement wall quite vigorously, pointing to the Taiyuan city in front of him and saying to the chief of staff Nagata Jio on the side.
