Compared with yesterday's fierce battle at the city gate, the second day of holding on to the presidential palace, the battle that began in the early morning has entered the white heat. Although the Dead Battalion inflicted heavy losses on the incoming Japanese troops, it had to retreat back and place the final battlefield in the presidential palace.

The 6th Division of the Japanese Army, which was blocked by the explosion outside the battlefield, received operational instructions from the headquarters and sent an additional infantry wing to the front line. The infantry in charge of finding the way soon discovered that the defenders were limited in strength.

Having come to this conclusion, the Infantry Wing of the 6th Division, which had been ordered to reinforce the 18th Division, immediately launched a strong attack on the blocking defenders hidden in the streets in the form of an infantry brigade, intending to capture the blocking position leading to the presidential palace in one fell swoop.

The 18th Division of the Japanese Army, which was responsible for the frontal assault, had lost nearly half of its strength in order to capture the Presidential Palace, which was still occupied by the Dead Soldiers' Battalion. When the battle came to this point, Ushijima Sadao naturally didn't want it, and the presidential palace was preempted by the Sixth Division.

Looking at the attacking troops advancing slowly, the division commander also gritted his teeth and said: "Transfer the reserves up and continue to increase the offensive!" I don't believe that with one of our divisions, we can't take a small presidential palace. ”

In the face of the ruthless division commander, how dare the wing commanders under his command not use their lives? Under layers of oppression, the infantry of the 18th Division finally became hard. The soldiers who attacked in front fell, and the soldiers who followed behind continued to rise.

Hu Biao, who led a company of guards to come over for reinforcements, saw these red-eyed little devils, and knew that the little devils had become crazy, so he immediately said: "Second bolt, notify the guards of the first company, and all the explosions will be withdrawn to the presidential palace!" ”

"Yes, Captain!"

Hu Biao's order was conveyed to the first company of guards who were blocking the attack, and Qin Tianyou, who left early, also brought all the surviving officers and soldiers back to the presidential palace. Some of the soldiers who were seriously wounded resolutely refused to evacuate with the troops.

Looking at the soldiers who came to give the order, these seriously injured soldiers all smiled and said, "Let's go!" I had a piece of shrapnel in my leg and couldn't walk. Give me a few grenades, and I'll hide here while the little devils come and bury me!" ”

"It's okay! Retreat to the back first, there is a doctor at the presidential palace! ”

"Don't push me! If I don't leave, I won't go. The two dogs have all been sacrificed, and I have to go down there to accompany them, otherwise they will feel unaccompanied. If you want to force me again, I'll play the glory bullet now! ”

Faced with such resolute expressions of these wounded, Qin Tianyou, who had been reported, could only ask Hu Biao. Hearing these wounded, he would rather die than retreat, Hu Biao could only grit his teeth and say: "Respect the choice of these brothers, and the others will withdraw immediately!" ”

Coming to a house behind the blocking position with a collapsed roof, Hu Biao took out two electrically activated detonation devices from a locked wooden box, as well as a few fuses waiting to be ignited.

took out a match from his body, lit a few fuses, pulled the detonator out of the room, and looked at the little devil who was desperately attacking, Hu Biao also gritted his teeth and said: "Little devil, try the earthen plane that Lao Tzu prepared for you!" ”

When the button turned, a series of explosions suddenly sounded from a street in front of me, which was almost reduced to rubble. The explosives buried in the ground were awakened at this time, lifting the obstacles that pressed overhead, and letting out their own roar.

Looking at the attacking Japanese army shrouded in the explosion, he threw the detonation device aside, looked at Hu Biao on the other side, and pressed the second detonation device again. When the electricity gushed out, explosions were heard in the residential area.

Although he can't see how many little devils have suffered, Hu Biao believes that the little devils hidden in that house will not end well. What's more, in the forward positions of the Japanese attack, there are still several explosion traps being detonated!

The sudden two series of explosions made the Japanese troops who entered the forward position to launch an attack also become frightened. Faced with the hesitation of his subordinates, soon an officer with a little devil shouted: "Keep attacking!" Don't stop the fire! ”

Although these officers were also worried, by this time, they could no longer afford to be afraid and hesitate. Earlier, the division commander issued an operational order to capture the presidential palace as soon as possible at all costs and encircle and annihilate the defenders who were blocking them.

With the two waves of serial explosions, the turbulent offensive of the Japanese army was brought to a halt, and the soldiers of the guard company who were ordered to reinforce also fought and retreated. The Japanese army that was attacking, how could they miss the opportunity when they saw this scene!

Soon there was a little devil's army Cao roared: "The Chinese army is retreating, we can't let them escape, pursue!" Go on the offensive! ”

"Rush up and surround them!"

Countless red-eyed little devils screamed and charged. But before retreating, the guard company had already made corresponding arrangements, and it was impossible to retreat in an orderly manner. The infantry retreated, but the machine gunners were ready to stop.

Seeing the countless little devils who launched the charge, the machine gunner also sneered: "Lao Tzu is waiting for you to get up!" Beat! ”

The roar of machine guns rang out, and countless screaming little devils were knocked over on the way to the charge. When the Japanese soldiers who followed up were back on their stomachs and launched a counterattack against the machine gunners, the machine gunners who had run out of bullets immediately withdrew their guns and retreated.

Blocking the attack and covering the retreat alternately were also the operational instructions conveyed by Hu Biao to Liu Quan. The guard company was already very familiar with this blocking position, which was conducive to retreat and blocking, and they naturally knew better than the little devils.

Just as the guards were fighting and retreating, within a hundred meters of the front of the position, a violent shock wave was heard from the ground again. The little devils who had just rushed into this range soon found that they were swept into the sky by this huge force.

The defenders who had already withdrawn from their positions were also shocked when they saw this scene: "Damn, at the front of our position, explosives were also planted!" If we had been detonated by a little devil's shell earlier, wouldn't we have been killed? ”

"Don't worry! This issue was already considered when the commander planted the explosives. What's more, even if the little devil is shelling, he is aiming at our position. That's the front of the position, and there won't be too many shells that fall. ”

The blocking fighters, who were still in the mood to retreat and chatter, alternately covered the rapid retreat. At the same time, Hu Biao also led the sniper team that was always by his side to stop those little devils who were chasing after him.

When the explosion sounded in the forward position on the left, the explosion traps on the right and in the middle were also detonated one after another. In the face of the sudden explosion, the little devil who was desperately pursuing could only choose to suspend the pursuit helplessly.

When the smoke cleared, the Japanese troops who rushed into the blocking position again rarely saw the corpses of the defenders of the blocking position, except for the corpses of their own soldiers and wounded who were killed. Only in some of the collapsed ruins could you see the bodies of the dead defenders.

Knowing that the defenders guarding the blocking position should have fully retreated, the Japanese army, who finally took the blocking position, also began to search for the blocking position. It didn't take long for a little devil to shout: "The Chinese army! There are still living Chinese troops here! ”

Just when the little devil was excited to find that there were wounded defenders who had not yet evacuated, the wounded of the dead battalion leaning on the ruins sneered: "Get closer!" Come on a little more, Grandpa will prepare a big meal for you! ”

Hearing that the soldiers had spotted the wounded defenders who had not had time to evacuate, a Japanese squadron leader soon rushed over. Looking at the seriously wounded defender, the squadron leader immediately said, "Arrest him, don't let him die!" ”

As a result, what the onlookers did not expect was that the wounded, who seemed to be wounded both hands and feet, suddenly laughed and said: "Little devil, do your daydreams, Lao Tzu would rather die than be captured!" China will not be destroyed, long live China! ”

The wounded soldier who shouted these words immediately pulled several grenades hidden behind him, and the little devil who was about to be arrested saw the smoke rising from behind the wounded, and immediately said in horror: "Grenade!" Grenades, dodge away! ”

As soon as the words fell, the grenade, which was hidden by the wounded, exploded in an instant. When the explosion sounded, the wounded who had been seriously injured could also feel it, countless shrapnel drilled into the body, but he didn't feel any pain at all.

Before he died, he saw that the two nearest little devils were also blown up, and the wounded man also felt very satisfied. Long before he was injured, he had already killed six little devils, he felt that he had died without regrets, and now he pulled two little devils to accompany him to the funeral, it was worth it!

Situations like this are constantly sounding in the blocking positions. The wounded, who were no longer able to move, would take advantage of the strength they still had to pull the glorious bullets that they were never willing to throw away, and laugh to their deaths in the frightened eyes of the Japanese soldiers.

Those wounded who could still move their hands and feet, some of them were strapped to hand grenades, and when the Japanese troops were not paying attention, they rushed directly into the Japanese troops who poured into the blocking position. Before he died, he still pulled the little devil to bury them.

Hu Biao and the others, who were retreating, listened to the continuous sound of explosions in the blocking position, and all the soldiers who retreated safely could not control the tears pouring out. They all knew what these explosions meant.

Hu Biao, who had asked himself for many years and didn't know what the tears were, felt the tears gushing out of his eyes, and suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Fight to the death!" ”

"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! Fight to the death! ”

If there were still people who had illusions earlier, they hoped to break through alive. At this moment, they are no longer thinking about how to live, but thinking about how to avenge those comrades-in-arms who sacrificed their lives heroically, and would rather die than take half a step back!

When the Japanese troops who rushed to the blocking position began to clean up the battlefield, they saw the bodies of the defenders who had died heroically in the entire blocking position, without exception, and many little devils also knew that these soldiers were worthy of their awe and respect.

If all the soldiers of the Chinese Anti-Japanese War Army had the same backbone and courage as these soldiers, then they wanted to occupy China, but they were afraid that it would be impossible at all. The little devils who experienced this war will never forget the scene at this moment.

When Ushijima Sadao listened to the adjutant's report, his voice was a little hoarse: "I finally understand now why the commander attaches so much importance to this unit. If this kind of army is not completely wiped out, it will definitely become a big problem for the empire! ”

As a general, Ushijima Sadao knew very well that compared with China's vast land and large population, Fuso's daring to launch a war of aggression relied more on its superiority in weaponry. If the dragon of Huaxia wakes up, what awaits Fusang will be endless fear!
