Chapter 133: The Devil's Artillery Fire Extends

Zhao Zilong shot continuously.

Wen Bin has been following Zhao Zilong, and he keeps helping to load bullets.

Zhang Long also ignored the injuries on his body, held up the Maqinke heavy machine gun, and fired at those devil soldiers.

The heavy fire of the heavy machine guns swept away the devil soldiers in one fell swoop.

However, his heavy machine gun was so eye-catching that it quickly caught the attention of the devils.

Da Da Da ......

A Type 92 heavy machine gun on a private house on the other side of the moat was aimed at Zhang Long on the city wall, constantly spraying tongues of fire. Bullets kept coming at Zhang Long and the machine gunners.

Woohoo......

Zhao Zilong also heard the grenadiers on the opposite bank firing bombs one after another.

These devil soldiers are specifically targeting the machine gunners on the side of the national army to fire bombs.

Bang! Bang! ……

The continuous explosions suddenly blew up the national troops on the city wall, and while the shrapnel injured people, it also destroyed some of the green bricks that had been destroyed by artillery fire again.

Zhang Long and the new secondary shooter had to shift positions.

But they had just extended their Machink heavy machine guns from another battlement to strafe them, when the devil's bullets came at them again.

Zhang Long and the others had to avoid it again.

His heavy machine guns could only be fired intermittently.

Although the heavy machine gun is powerful, it cannot form a very effective sniper because of the delay of this time.

Zhao Zilong here is able to shoot devils continuously because Wen Bin helps him load bullets.

However, his unusual behavior was noticed by several devil machine gunners on the other side of the moat, who immediately turned their guns and fired.

Therefore, Zhao Zilong had to dodge the bullets on the other side, and at the same time, he also had to pay attention to the cold guns of those devil soldiers under the city wall.

Da Da Da ......

The devil machine gunners near the houses on the other side of the moat kept firing at the city wall, suppressing the fire of the national army for a while.

As soon as he saw this situation, Zhao Zilong looked at both sides of the city wall and immediately had an idea.

"Xiaobin! You come with me. ”

As he spoke, Zhao Zilong immediately bent down and lowered his head and ran towards the enemy tower on the top of the three-eaves hill on the city wall that was half blown up by artillery fire.

Wen Bin didn't know why, but he was also holding two rifles, following closely behind.

Zhao Zilong took Wen Bin to the enemy building, he stepped over several horizontal and vertical beams, blackened by fire, still smoking, hid behind a broken wooden window, pulled out a few broken stone bricks, picked up a Zhongzheng rifle equipped with a telescope, and aimed at a man who was lying on the roof of a house to shoot devil machine gunners.

This devil machine gunner, whose head is as big as a melon, stared at the side of the Zhonghua Gate city wall with a fierce face, holding a crooked machine gun and pulling the trigger fiercely.

Bullets rained down.

Seeing that a national soldier was shot, this big-headed devil machine gunner suddenly screamed wildly, and even fired wildly.

As soon as Zhao Zilong locked onto this devil machine gunner, he immediately pulled his right index finger on the trigger of the Zhongzheng rifle.

Bang.

The bullet flew over the walls, over the moat, and at once got into the forehead of this devil machine gunner.

Because of the gunfire on the city wall, the sound of Zhao Zilong's shooting was muffled, and the devil soldiers on the other side of the moat failed to find it.

The devil machine gunner's head blossomed, red and white erupted at once, his eyes rolled, and he immediately returned to his hometown.

When the deputy shooter next to the man saw it, he immediately pushed his companion away and wanted to take the crooked handle.

However, what was waiting for this devil's sub-shooter was a bullet fired from the enemy tower on the city wall.

After killing the devil's sub-shooter, Zhao Zilong immediately pulled the bolt and pushed the bullet to load, and then aimed at the next devil machine gunner.

Because Zhao Zilong hid in the enemy towers on the city wall that was not easy to find, and used binoculars to observe the environment, and those devil machine gunners were swaggering on the roofs of those houses, or setting up machine guns or heavy machine guns on the broken walls, so they were easily shot by Zhao Zilong.

When he finished all three rifle bullets, the devil light and heavy machine gunners on the other side of the moat were either killed by him or hid in fright.

Therefore, the firepower to cover the charge of those devils suddenly dropped significantly.

-

"Yaga!"

On a high ground a kilometer away, Captain Tanaka cursed angrily.

He saw through his binoculars that the besieging soldiers were being held back by the national army, and had not yet crossed the wooden bridge of the moat. On the side of the houses on both sides of the moat, those machine gunners were also killed and suppressed by Zhao Zilong on the opposite side, so they were so anxious that they almost jumped.

"Command, artillery squad, artillery extended support."

The extension of artillery fire is that in the offensive and defensive battle, the artillery fire of the attacking side, after bombarding the position of the defender, gradually moves forward the impact point. This has the advantage of being able to hit the defender more accurately, but the disadvantage is that it is easy to injure one's own people.

When Captain Akino saw it, he immediately asked, "Captain Tanaka!" Why do you want artillery fire to extend? It's easy to hurt our warriors. ”

"Humph!" Captain Tanaka snorted disapprovingly and replied, "Since it is to make meritorious contributions to the empire and serve the emperor, sacrifice is due." ”

As soon as the commander of the artillery squad saw the flag bearer, he immediately ordered the squad to advance the cannon to five or six hundred meters away from the Zhonghua Gate.

-

Rumble!

When Zhao Zilong shot and killed a devil soldier, he was about to pull the bolt and push the bullet.

The sound of a cannon firing was heard five or six hundred meters ahead.

Boom.

A cannonball landed behind the city wall, sending the cyan bricks flying there.

The national soldiers in front of the city wall couldn't help but be taken aback.

Zhao Zilong frowned, and immediately looked up into the distance.

Although the distance was far away, he could still vaguely see a cannon heading towards the Zhonghua Gate.

He immediately looked through the eightfold telescope.

I saw a few devil artillerymen one after another on that open flat land, firing three Type 92 infantry guns.

Probably because the distance from the wall of Zhonghua Gate was five or six hundred meters, far beyond the effective range of the rifles, these artillerymen swaggered so loudly and as if there was no one around, and they broke off these infantry on the road without concealment.

"Be careful, everyone, the devil is going to fire again." Seeing that those devil artillerymen adjusted the positions of those cannons and prepared to load and fire, Zhao Zilong immediately shouted.

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately wanted to find a place to hide.

"Don't retreat, everyone hold on." When Wang Zhong saw it, he immediately raised the box cannon and fired a few shots at the company, and stopped it in a loud voice.

Seeing that the devil soldiers under the city wall were charging towards the city wall, everyone couldn't leave, so they had to bite the bullet and stick to the battlement.

Bang!

Another shell flew and landed on the road surface of the city wall, blowing up several large stones, and the flying shrapnel also hit several nearby national troops.

Everyone was pale with fright, but seeing that their battalion commander was still holding the city wall, they had to grit their teeth and shout and shoot at the devil soldiers below to vent their anger.

However, as more devil shells flew, several more national army brothers were killed and wounded in the explosion.

At this moment, the national army began to become panicked, and the firepower of the defense gradually weakened.

When the devils under the city wall saw the artillery support, their morale immediately rose again, and they shouted Long live the emperor, and they attacked again.
