With the issuance of a clear telegram, countless soldiers and civilians of the Anti-Japanese War who paid attention to the war in Jinling knew about the Jinling Dead Soldiers' Battalion. However, as to who the 'Hu' in this telegram was, the national army did not give a clear answer.

Judging from the establishment of the dead soldier battalion, many people speculate that this should be a school officer. In addition to being curious about the dead soldier battalion and the 'Hu' in the telegram, many people also know about the killings caused by the Japanese army in Jinling, and have a better understanding of the ferocity of the Japanese army.

Even the Eighth Route Army, which was far away in northern Shaanxi, received this clear code telegram, and many bigwigs immediately realized that the fall of Jinling was only a matter of time. This also means that the situation of the Anti-Japanese War will also undergo new changes.

Looking at the national combat map hanging on the wall, Taizu said with a little worry: "Once Jinling is lost, the Japanese army will continue to advance to the front line of Xuzhou in the next step." If they really let them open up the northern and southern fronts, this battle will become more and more difficult to fight in the future. ”

"Yes! The Battle of Songhu lasted for three months, and who would have thought that the Battle of Jinling would have lasted for half a month. It seems that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army's main battle division is indeed very strong! In this battle, the elite of the national army is afraid that it will also suffer serious losses! ”

Hearing this, Taizu nodded and said, "That's right! It seems that it is necessary to speed up our development behind enemy lines. If you really let the little devils get through the battlefield between the north and the south, it will be a greater threat to us, and it is necessary to make some preparations in advance! ”

Regarding the conversation that took place in northern Shaanxi, Hu Biao, who was fighting fiercely with the Japanese army, naturally did not know. Listening to the gunshots coming from downstairs, Hu Biao didn't worry too much and was distracted. He knew very well that the little devil wanted to rush downstairs, but he was afraid that it would not be so easy.

From time to time, the muzzle of the gun was moved, and the tank armored car that could still move on the straight street was completely exploded. In Hu Biao's view, in the next street battles, these most threatening tanks and armored vehicles must be solved. Otherwise, the battle that follows will not be easy to fight.

In hand-to-hand street fighting, there is no shortage of weapons and equipment in the battalion of dead soldiers. In addition to having no advantage in troops, the battalion of dead soldiers has a terrain advantage. The enemy is in the open, the dead battalion is in the dark, and there is still a certain advantage in street fighting.

On the other hand, the Japanese troops who were suppressed in the straight street, looking at the eight machine guns, almost blocked the entire street. As the tank armored vehicles in front were knocked to their stomachs, the tank armored vehicles that followed behind could not continue to move forward at all.

In fact, even if they could push forward, the riders would not dare to keep going. The scene of the tanks and armored vehicles at the gate of the city being beaten into a hornet's nest in front of them is still vivid! Rush to the front, you can't find death!

Losing the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, the little devils located on the street can only hide in houses on the side of the street. A handful of little devils also looked for a new way, hoping to make a detour back to the downstairs of the machine gun position, and then carry out melee combat.

Some little devils who were lucky enough to escape the machine gun strafing rushed to the building where the machine gun was located, but they were resolutely blocked by Xu Sandao and others downstairs. If you can't find any shelter, it's hard to get close to a building less than 100 meters away.

"Yaga! Call for artillery support! Damn, we need artillery support! Without solving the machine guns upstairs, we simply can't advance. Bring the grenadier squad up and take out those damn machine guns for me! ”

Hiding behind the tank lying on its stomach, there was soon a little devil officer in charge of the command to deal with it accordingly according to the situation on the battlefield. Sadao Ushijima, who had already arrived outside the city, was also very surprised when he heard the report.

frowned and said: "How can these Chinese troops have so many machine guns?" Order the mountain artillery squadron to provide artillery support immediately! ”

Knowing that the tank squadron had been hit hard again, Ushijima Sadao also felt that his heart was dripping blood. As the commander of the division, Sadao Ushijima knew very well that this tank squadron was a killer unit assigned by the headquarters to their divisions for combat.

But in less than a day, this impregnable chariot force was severely damaged by the enemy. Thinking of this, Ushijima Sadao also felt that maybe it was a wrong decision to send a tank squadron into the city.

When the mountain artillery squadron calculated the distance between Hu Biao and the others, they quickly carried out artillery strikes. Listening to the sound of explosions coming from the roof of the building, as well as the houses that continue to be blown down, Hu Biao and others who stayed in the building still did not stop firing.

Even Xu Sandao and the others, who stayed downstairs to block the attack, ignored the artillery attack of the little devil. Unless the shell hits the machine gun bunker directly, the blockers hiding in the bunker can still rest assured that they can stop the attacking little devils.

Moreover, when the shelling began, most of the little devils at the front of the position retreated, out of the position where the artillery fire might hit. In this case, many of the fighters who were responsible for blocking the attack hid directly in the houses made of steel and concrete behind them.

Most of these buildings specially selected by Hu Biao are former commercial banks and bank residences. It can be said that unless it is heavy artillery or aerial bombs, it is not very likely that the mountain artillery will completely blow it up.

When the shelling of the little devils began, Hu Biao deliberately slowed down the speed of shooting, and asked Huang Erzhuan to bring a telescope to observe the little devils' every move on the street. Soon I saw that many little devils who entered the city hid in the houses on both sides of the street.

Seeing this scene, Hu Biao immediately sneered: "Second bolt, tell Sandao that you can do it!" ”

"Yes!"

Huang Erzhuo, who heard the order, knew very well what Hu Biao meant by giving this order. The little devils who had been staying on the street earlier were afraid of being hit by the ferocious machine shells, so they hid in the houses on both sides of the street and waited for orders.

But these little devils didn't know that in these seemingly safe houses, Hu Biao planted a large amount of explosives in advance. With the electric detonators provided by the military commanders, explosion traps have been created, and the houses will be reduced to ruins when they are detonated.

Perhaps by doing so, there is a suspicion of destroying people's houses. But for Hu Biao, with the capture of Jinling by the Japanese army, these houses have also become the trophies of the little devils. It is better to let the little devils sell to make money, it is better to destroy it completely!

Turn the entire battlefield into ruins, so that the subsequent street battles and hand-to-hand combat are convenient. After all the houses on both sides of the street were blown up, it was difficult for the little devil's tank armored vehicles to exert their due assault effect.

Xu Sandao, who was staying downstairs and was in charge of blocking the attack, heard the instructions brought by Huang Erzhuo, and said with a smile: "Okay!" After a hard night's work, now I can finally see the results. If the little devils dare to shell us, then we will also send them an explosion! ”

Coming to the room behind him, looking at the tied detonation box, Xu Sandao also smiled and said: "Two bolts, one for each of us, press the detonation button at the same time." This bombing, I believe it will make the little devil honest for a while. ”

"Good! I love this errand! ”

Waiting until the two of them were each responsible for a detonation box, looking at the power-on button in the electric box, Xu Sandao said in a deep voice: "Second bolt, listen to my password, three, two, one, detonate!" ”

When the energizing button turned, a current followed the previously laid wires, and soon detonated countless electric detonators. The little devil who had been staying in the houses on both sides of the street, waiting for the shelling to end, instantly felt the sky collapse ringing in his ears.

All the seemingly intact houses were blown out of a huge gap at the same time. Countless rubble and bricks rushed into the streets, and even the little devil lying behind the chariot was quickly smashed and his head was bleeding.

As for the little devils who were waiting in the house, many of them took the dirt plane directly and flew into the air with the blast wave of the explosion. When they land again, they often turn into rag dolls, and many of them don't even see the complete corpse.

Ushijima Sadao and the others, who were supervising the battle outside the city, heard the sudden earth-shattering explosion in the city, and their faces changed dramatically in an instant: "Yaga! What happened? Quick, send someone into the city to check on the situation, I want to know what's going on! ”

At this moment, the vigilant Japanese soldiers who were staying on the ruins of the main city tower were all lying on the ground with a stunned face and watching the sudden explosion. The houses and shops on both sides of the street were quickly reduced to rubble by the explosion.

The smoke and dust from the explosion completely covered the entire street. The little devil artilleryman, who was shelling, heard the earth-shattering explosion coming from the city, and immediately stopped the shelling. For a moment, the city suddenly became quiet.

On the streets covered with gunsmoke and dust, from time to time there were desolate cries for help from the Japanese army: "Who will save me!" I've got a broken leg! ”

"Mom, I want to go home! I can't see! Who can save me! ”

Similar bleak cries for help came from the smoke-filled streets. The soldiers who participated in the installation of explosives earlier, when they saw the streets turned into ruins in an instant, also felt that such an explosive trap was really difficult to guard against.

In addition to feeling too ferocious, many fighters felt very relieved. As far as these fighters are concerned, they know very well that if they don't kill these little devils, then they may be killed by the little devils.

The battlefield itself is a place where you live and die, and there is no room for a little mercy. It's better than watching the enemy die in agony than dying in pain in the eyes of the enemy. This bombing can at least bury hundreds or even thousands of little devils.

When Ushijima Sadao climbed up to the ruins of the main castle tower and looked at the street in front of him, which was still shrouded in smoke and dust, he said with a distorted expression: "Yaga! These damn guys, they actually planted explosives in the houses on both sides of the street. ”

As the commander of the division, Sadao Ushijima was able to analyze what was happening on the battlefield ahead from the previous explosion and the explosion site. As soon as it exploded, the infantry brigade sent to the city earlier was afraid that there would be only a few people left!

Inoue Meitaro, who stayed by Sadao Ushijima's side, gritted his teeth and said, "Yaga! Who exactly! Damn it, don't let me catch you, or I'll kill you alive! Division commander, please fight! ”

Earlier, in order to capture the position of the castle tower, the Inoue Wing had already paid the price of an infantry brigade. The first to enter the city to attack this time was also the infantry of the Inoue Wing. I'm afraid there won't be a few survivors left in this infantry brigade.

No one expected that just when they could clearly enjoy the joy of victory, Inoue United suffered such a fatal blow. Coupled with the troops lost in the Purple Mountain position earlier, the Inoue Wing has already suffered all casualties!

Without troops under his command, what is the point of Intoue Kintaro being the wing commander?
