Listening to the continuous sound of gunfire inside and outside the city, the commander of the Japanese infantry brigade who was deploying a defense in the city also felt a heavy pressure. Looking at his subordinates who were building improvised fortifications, he knew that this kind of pressure existed for everyone.

As a commander, the commander of the infantry brigade has always secretly admonished him to be calm. If even he panicked, the fate of the remaining troops would really be doomed. In this case, he must show his courage as a general and commander.

Strong self-calmness constantly conveys instructions to subordinates, and appears in front of subordinates from time to time to show a sense of existence. Under the deliberate appeasement of the commander of the infantry brigade, the remaining Japanese mood finally stabilized.

Even though the sound of gunfire outside the city has not stopped, the troops attacking outside the city at this moment have not yet entered the city. What really worried the commander of the infantry brigade was the sound of firefighting behind him, which seemed to be more violent than before.

Just when the commander of the infantry brigade was curious about whether the enemy had stepped up the attack, the officer in charge of reporting back was also anxious: "General, we need support!" The enemy fire was too heavy, and our brigade suffered heavy casualties. ”

"As an officer of the Empire, you must remain calm at all times. How many offensive forces are there? ”

"Report to the general, judging from the number of attacking troops, they have less than a hundred people, divided into two groups to attack us."

"Na? An attacking force of less than 100 people, you can't stop it? Baga, what are you captains eating? ”

After listening to the report of the captain officer, a wing leader next to him immediately couldn't help but reprimand. If there are too many attacking troops, it is understandable that the infantry brigade cannot support it and ask for support. After all, two fists are hard to beat four!

Seeing the angry Wing Captain, the captain in charge of the report was also very aggrieved: "Your Excellency, Wing Captain, although there are not many enemies in this group, they are really elite. The infantry artillery is very skillful in coordinated combat, and we rarely resist.

Just before I returned, a squadron of infantry was defending a position, and it took less than ten minutes for the opponent to break through. All the soldiers were either blown up or killed. The other side has artillery support, and our firepower is limited! ”

As soon as these words came out, the senior military officers who listened to the report were also very surprised. From the helpless tone of the captain, all the officers were convinced that this captain would not dare to lie about such a thing. The question is, is there such a powerful force?

"Tell me about the specific offensive steps of this group of enemies!"

"Hey! The troops attacking the defensive positions of our brigade should be about two squads. It is equipped with six light mortars, and then has a grenadier squad equipped with at least ten grenadier canisters, and has rich combat experience.

The infantry responsible for the attack was divided into several attack groups, including several submachine gunners, several light machine gunners, and several riflemen. In addition to this, during the offensive, they also had the cover of sharpshooters, and our machine guns could not fight at all.

In the previous blockade, the biggest casualties of our brigade were the machine gunners. Many of the squad gunners, including the secondary shooters, were killed, and many of the machine gunners were now replaced by riflemen. Even so, machine gun fire is still not guaranteed! ”

With this more detailed report, the commander of the infantry brigade said with a more solemn expression: "Quack! Where did such a powerful Chinese army come from? Small elite units that can be equipped with submachine guns are rare in China! ”

After muttering a little, it became clear that the infantry brigade was indeed under a lot of pressure, and finally sent another infantry brigade to reinforcements. With this group of troops dispatched, there were not many troops left with him.

Hu Biao, who was storming the little devil's defensive position, saw that the little devil was retreating, and seemed to have received powerful reinforcements. Gesturing: "Stop attacking!" Order the commandos, organize the defense on the spot! ”

"Yes, detachment leader!"

As the little devils continue to increase their troops, the offensive pressure on the task force is also increasing. This kind of assault attack is also very physically demanding for the combat members. If it lasts too long, it will inevitably lead to an inability to concentrate when attacking.

Crowd tactics sometimes work. Seeing that two of the team members around him were injured, Hu Biao also knew that he could not continue to attack, but should think of other ways. Most importantly, he also wants other ways to break the game.

Hearing the gunfire on the other side, which was still fighting fiercely, and looking at where the troops were, Hu Biao suddenly said: "Pass my order, alternately cover and withdraw from the battle." Draw a group of people and try to lure the little devils into the blast zone.

If you can't, keep a group of people on the spot, and the rest of me will go with me to support the Special Second Company. Concentrate your firepower and try to tear a hole. It was not far from the south gate wall, and they tried to capture the south of the city and receive the troops from outside the city into the city. ”

"Yes, detachment leader!"

Hu Biao, who temporarily adjusted the battle plan, resolutely adopted the strategy of retreating as advancing. The reinforcements who were urgently deploying to block the fortifications also felt very confused and surprised when they saw Hu Biao and his entourage, who stopped the attack halfway.

The captain of the infantry group who led the team was very surprised and said, "Aso-kun, why didn't they attack?" ”

"I don't know! Do you want to send troops to fight back? ”

"Yes! Send a squadron in pursuit! Let's test the intentions of these people! ”

There was an extra infantry brigade in hand, and the captain of the infantry brigade who was in charge of blocking the attack before also agreed to take the initiative. Although he didn't understand why the other party stopped attacking or even retreated, he felt that there must be a reason for this.

A Japanese squadron that received the order cautiously began to walk out of the defensive position, ready to test whether Hu Biao and the others really retreated. As a result, not far away, there was soon a fierce gunfire on the previously abandoned defensive position.

The little devil who was caught off guard quickly left several corpses, and the rest of the little devils looked for cover to hide. Seeing this scene, the team leader in charge of defense and blocking said directly: "Give a few guns and grenades to the devil to taste!" ”

"Good!"

The grenadiers in the group quickly set up the grenadiers in their hands, and after aiming a little, they opened fire on the place where the little devil was hiding. A few grenades went down and killed a few more little devils. During this time, snipers also fired from time to time.

The combat team responsible for staying behind, with weapons and personnel, is similar to that of the special operations team in later generations. There were grenadiers, stormtroopers and riflemen, and naturally snipers. A combat group is not a problem to deal with a Japanese squad.

Even if it was a squadron of little devils who were chasing, the members of the combat team were still not afraid. As the defensive side, they have more of an advantage. As long as the little devils don't have artillery, they can hold back this group of little devils with the help of fortifications.

The pursuit squadron, which was in a dilemma, saw the soldiers who were constantly killed and wounded, and said with a headache: "Squadron leader, do you continue to launch a strong attack?" Although the number of the other party is small, they are obviously defensive! ”

"Let's go back and ask the captain!"

For the squadron leader in charge of the pursuit, having previously fought the task force, he knew very well that this group of people was not a good man. Originally, I thought that the other party had withdrawn, but now it seems that the people are obviously on guard and don't want them to follow behind and pursue.

If the pursuit continues, more troops must be sent to break through the enemy's interception net. With only one squadron under his command, it will be difficult for him to break through the interception net built by the other side.

The two captains who stayed in the rear to watch the battle also saw the dilemma faced by the pursuing squadron. Just as the two captains were discussing, Hu Biao, who had already moved to the other side, quickly conveyed his instructions to Qin Tianyou.

In addition, he also gave an order to Lin Jian outside the city, asking him to transfer a main battalion to prepare to the south gate to respond. As soon as they captured the south gate, they immediately came in from the south gate to carry out reinforcements, and the rest of the troops were still responsible for containment.

In fact, at this moment there was already a guard battalion outside the south gate, as well as a company of prisoners of war. As long as the south gate is opened, these troops can enter the city safely. When the time comes, the pressure on the little devils in the city will be even greater.

With the sudden merger of the two combat companies. The Japanese army, who was originally responsible for blocking the attack, instantly felt the huge pressure of the blockade. Looking at the positions that were constantly being broken through, the little devil officer in charge of blocking screamed: "Quick! We need reinforcements! ”

The two captains, who were thinking about whether they needed to send additional troops to pursue, heard the obvious increase in the frequency of shelling and gunfire on the other side, and the two of them were instantly surprised: "Not good! They are going to attack the south of the city and receive the troops from outside the city into the city! ”

With this judgment, the two infantry captains immediately said: "Quick, leave the two squadrons in charge of the guard, and the rest of the troops will all reinforce the south of the city." Damn, they want to take the troops from outside the city into the city! ”

Although the little devils made a good analysis, they still underestimated the speed of the task force's all-out attack. The most important thing is that after formulating the assault plan, Hu Biao has already considered that the little devil will send additional troops to rescue.

When attacking in the direction of the city gate, Hu Biao also arranged for Lei Xiong to lead the fire platoon under his command to temporarily build a blocking position. Even in Lei Xiong's happy gaze, he was equipped with two anti-aircraft machine guns capable of flat fire.

Just set up the anti-aircraft machine gun, looking at the little devil rushing from the other end of the street, Lei Xiong shouted loudly: "Brothers, buy time for the detachment leader!" In any case, these little devils can't be allowed to make trouble.

When the large army outside the city enters the city, these little devils will die. Wait a minute, I'll come first! As soon as my guns rang out, the artillery squad began to carry out artillery shelling. When the imps are in range of the grenadiers, the grenadiers will immediately open fire, and then the machine gunners will implement a total blockade! ”

"Yes, Deputy Thunder!"

At this moment, Lei Xiong is commanding the combat team members of the task force who are best at using heavy weapons. The entire combat platoon, except for a small number of snipers, was machine gunners. The mortar squad and the grenadier squad were also specially left by Hu Biao for Lei Xiong.

When a large number of little devils appeared on the side of the street, Lei Xiong pulled the trigger in his hand with a murderous face. The anti-aircraft machine gun bullets pushed into the chamber of the gun instantly erupted from the barrel of the gun, knocking over the little devil a few hundred meters away in an instant.

At the same time, the artillery squad staying behind the machine-gun position, several mortars that had adjusted their firing range opened fire instantly. As the cannonballs rose into the air and fell heavily, the team of little devils who rushed to reinforce was in chaos in an instant!
