Tangshan, not far from Jinling City, has become the temporary station of the Japanese front headquarters since the Japanese army formed an encirclement posture against Jinling. Operational orders for the Jinling front were sent from this temporary headquarters to the main battle divisions and regiments on the front.

As the commander of the dispatch army to succeed Matsui Ishone, Lieutenant General Asaka Hatohiko had the same rank as the commander of other divisions, but he was entrusted with this important task because of his status as the prince of the imperial family. This exploit highlights the great role played by the royal family in the war.

But no one expected that with Hu Biao's clear telegram, the identity of Asaka Hatohiko, who is a lieutenant general of the army, would be revealed to the world. Even more people know that the secret order for the massacre was personally signed by the prince.

As the Japanese army translated the telegram, looking at the telegram handed over, Matsui Shigen was also shocked and said: "Yaga! Didn't the secret telegram sent by His Royal Highness the Prince to all divisions and regiments be strictly ordered to be destroyed? How could the content of this secret message be leaked? ”

It is clear that Asaka Hatohiko is more just coming to gild Matsui Ishine, and he knows very well how much trouble this clear code will bring to the Japanese army if it is transmitted by electricity. But what shocked him even more was how this 'Hu' knew about the secret message.

Even as soon as he saw the telegram, Matsui Ishine instructed the special high school to strictly investigate suspicious people in the telecommunications departments of all divisions and regiments. Those who have the opportunity to know about this will be the target of a key investigation, and the leakers who may be hiding will be uncovered.

Asaka Hatohiko, who also saw this telegram, was also very annoyed and said, "Yaga! Didn't I say that this secret message cannot be archived, and the commanders of the divisions will destroy it after reading it? Why is the content of the secret message still leaked? ”

He knows very well that he is a prince, and if he gives such an order, what will the outside world think about the royal family? Who can guarantee that he will not give such an order from the royal family?

Facing the furious Asaka Hatohiko, Matsui Ishone, who was staying aside and actually controlling the combat troops, also comforted in a timely manner: "Your Royal Highness, I have ordered the Special High School to investigate this matter. If there is a leaker, it should be investigated quickly.

What we have to do now is to destroy this camp of dead soldiers. According to the information from the special high school, there has been a rumor in Jinling City since last night, saying that we will slaughter the city after we break it, causing many people to flee in a hurry.

If nothing else, it is very likely that the one who spreads these rumors is this camp of dead soldiers. We are still collecting information about this dead soldier camp. For now, it is almost certain that they are hiding in the area of the presidential palace. ”

"The Presidential Palace? Is the Eighteenth Division responsible for the area of attack? ”

"Yes! In order to eliminate the future troubles as soon as possible, I think it is necessary to let the 18th Division increase its offensive posture and strive to eliminate the remnants of the army hidden in the presidential palace area in the shortest possible time.

If possible, capture the commander of this team alive and force him to find out the source of the information. If there are really intelligence personnel lurking in the divisional and regimental headquarters, it will be too harmful to us, and we must find out the lurkers. ”

"Yo Breath! Immediately send a telegram to the commander of the Ushijima Division and order him to accelerate the attack. Tell the commander of the Ushijima Division that I don't want this so-called battalion of dead soldiers to have a chance to see the sun rise tomorrow. This team must be wiped out. ”

"Yes! Send the report! ”

As the two men agreed, the order signed by the two men was quickly conveyed to the 18th Division. Seeing the harsh wording in the telegram, Ushijima Sadao also knew very well that Commander Matsui and His Royal Highness the Prince were very angry.

In view of this situation, Ushijima Sadao immediately ordered: "Inform all wings to immediately go to Zhongshan Gate and prepare to participate in the attack." Order the captain of the Inoue Wing to clear the passage into the city in the shortest possible time for the follow-up main force to enter the city. ”

"Hey!"

Hu Biao, who had sent the electricity in a clear code, did not stay in the presidential palace for long. Taking advantage of the fact that the little devil had not yet launched an offensive, Hu Biao came to the street again to check the previously arranged defensive arrangements, and at the same time make some additional appropriate modifications.

When Xu Sandao sent over to inform him that the Japanese army had opened the passage through the city gate and the little devil's tank armored car drove in again, Hu Biao quickly came to the hiding place of Xu Sandao and others, keeping an eye on every move of the Japanese army.

Looking at the Japanese attacking troops searching and advancing along both sides of the street, Hu Biao sneered: "Look at the little devil's style, you should be fighting with us." If nothing else, the little devil should have increased his troops again! ”

"Quite possibly! Judging by the number of tanks and armored vehicles, it is noticeably more than before. ”

"There's nothing wrong with the thread you laid earlier, right?"

"Hey, hey! Absolutely! At your command, I buried two threads. Even if there is a short circuit, the other will definitely be fine. When it finally explodes, the scene must be very exciting! ”

Listening to Xu Sandao's words, Hu Biao also smiled and said, "Don't worry! Now that the team of the little devils is a little sparse, we need to block a wave and let the little devils send more infantry in. Is the machine gun mount ready? ”

"That's it! According to your instructions, the position is deployed on the third floor of the building. Even if the little devils launched an artillery attack, it would be difficult to hit our machine guns in the building. With such a straight street, it is impossible for the little devil tank to hide. ”

"Okay! Tell the gunner to be in position and get ready for engagement! ”

"Understood!"

Two whistles were blown directly, and the fighters responsible for delivering the news also whistled to notify the gunners in the building to enter the position. Compared to the previous on the castle tower, the ammunition stored around the gunner at this moment is still very sufficient.

Leaving the ground position in charge of Xu Sandao, Hu Biao personally came to a building at the forefront, looked at the machine gun set up in the window, and began to slightly adjust the muzzle of the gun, aiming at the Japanese tank armored vehicles that were slowly driving on the long street.

At this time, the Japanese tanks, facing the buildings in front, fired shells from time to time. In this way, try to intimidate the ambushers who may exist. As for the infantry who followed, they carefully inspected the shops and houses on both sides of the street.

But for Hu Biao, those seemingly intact shops and houses, Hu Biao did not let the soldiers hide in them at all. The real killer feature has been laid out in advance. In addition, several high-rise buildings on both sides of the street are also Hu Biao's key blocking positions.

Even if the Japanese used artillery bombardment, even if they blew up the roof of the building, they would definitely not be able to hurt the defenders who had set up their positions in the middle of the building. With the advantage of the height of the buildings, the defenders can also attack the imps advancing from the streets.

Compared with the earlier period when Hu Biao only temporarily seconded four machine guns, now in several buildings on the corner of the street, Hu Biao directly deployed eight machine guns. The muzzles of all the machine guns were aimed at the straight street where the Japanese army was marching at this moment.

The machine gun with an effective firing range of more than one kilometer means that it can completely cripple people and objects within a radius of one kilometer. Even heavy machine guns, which are common on the battlefield, cannot match the super firepower of machine guns.

The only thing to worry about with the machine gun may be that it doesn't fire as fast as the heavy machine gun. Once the position is exposed, it is easy to attract the opponent's artillery fire to counterattack. But if you can deploy it in the middle of the floor, how easy is it to blow up the machine gun position?

Seeing that the Japanese troops entering the city, under the cover of several tanks and armored vehicles, began to come towards the ground fortifications built by the dead soldiers' battalion, Hu Biao took a deep breath and said: "Notify all artillery positions and prepare to shoot!" ”

Tian Tiezhu, who was staying by Hu Biao's side, picked up the small horn beside him and blew it violently, and the sound of the bayonet horn startled the Japanese soldiers who were searching for it. Only the gunner, who was on standby in the building, knew that it was the signal before the fire was fired.

After sending the signal, Hu Biao did not wait long, pointed the muzzle of the machine gun at a moving tank, and pressed the trigger in his hand hard. When the machine gun shell was fired from the muzzle, the strong recoil also made Hu Biao's body tremble.

Even so, Hu Biao still stubbornly controlled the shaking of the muzzle of the gun, and poured large-caliber machine shells into the team of little devils located on the straight street. The first to bear the brunt is the Type 95 light tank of the little devil.

The loud sound of gunfire made the ears of the soldiers in the room ring. At the same time, in the building next to Hu Biao, the rest of the machine gun shooters also opened fire, dumping machine gun shells into the straight street.

According to Hu Biao's instructions earlier, the machine gun shooter does not need to lock on to the target, but only needs to shoot the bullet into a straight line, and then slowly raise the muzzle of the gun, which can form a straight chain of fire and tear apart the little devils on the fire strike line.

Eight such lines of fire strike were instantly intertwined in the straight street where the little devil was marching. Even when some Japanese tanks quickly adjusted their guns and began to counterattack the machine guns on the floor, most of the shells hit the walls of the buildings.

Except for blowing a hole in the room, or blowing off some of the outer skin of the wall, the machine gun shooter hiding in the room is still unharmed. All shooters have to do is aim and shoot, change magazines, and continue to aim and shoot.

The Japanese infantry hiding behind the tank, looking at the chariot that was beaten to the nest, and the people around them who were blown up, instantly felt that they could not resist this kind of firepower. Many little devils can only lie on the ground and dare not move.

A small number of little devils, Jun Cao, with the help of the chariot that had been beaten down, hid behind the chariot and shouted: "Look for cover!" Look for an opportunity to rush over when the fire is in a gap. If we don't destroy these machine guns, we'll all die here! ”

Under the organization of these little devil officers or military officers, the Japanese troops, whose mood had slowly stabilized, began to take advantage of the interval between the machine guns to change ammunition, and quickly assaulted the cat's waist, hoping to rush to the downstairs of the house where the machine guns were located.

Looking at these little devils rushing over, Xu Sandao and the others, who had been waiting downstairs for a long time, said with a smile: "Prepare to fight!" ”

In order to ensure the safety of the machine gunners, Hu Biao built a defensive machine gun position under the building where the machine guns were deployed. If the little devil wants to attack the building and block the machine gunners upstairs, he must first take the defensive position downstairs.

Use machine guns to completely blow up the chariot of the little devils, and the infantry of the little devils who have lost the cover of the chariots, even if they can break out of the range of firepower, how many can really rush to the front of the defensive position?

What's more, this kind of pure infantry attack, in the face of the defenders who have built defensive positions in advance, the little devil infantry wants to break through these defensive positions, but I'm afraid it's not so easy!
