"Let's go!" Wang Zhong hurriedly urged.

Because Zhang Long was injured, he was helped by two brothers from the national army. Although Wen Bin's foot injury was not healed, he didn't need help from others, but used the 38 big cover as a crutch himself. Although his body is a little unstable, he also walks quickly.

Everyone hurriedly followed Wang Zhong and quickly walked down the city wall from the horse road.

Zhao Zilong ran at the back, and he turned around from time to time to observe the devils in the distance with a telescope as he ran.

They came under the walls, turned the corner, and ran into the arched brick holes.

Behind the Zhonghua Gate, there are nine brick holes arranged in a row of round arches. The officers and soldiers of the 88th Division are hiding here, and there are also brothers of the National Army of the 51st Division.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As soon as everyone entered these caves, which were about six or seven meters wide and high, explosions sounded on the city wall.

Listening to the constant rumbling sound outside, Zhao Zilong leaned his body against the wall.

He felt the walls tremble. It's like a giant hammer pounding frantically against the city walls.

On the top of the Tibetan Soldier Cave, the dust that had been deposited for more than 300 years kept falling down from above, gray, like a fog.

The blue-gray brick chips fell on the steel helmets on the heads of the national soldiers, making a subtle rustling sound.

Listening to the explosion outside, everyone didn't speak, just pursed their mouths and looked solemn.

Looking at everyone's appearance, Zhao Zilong knew that when the cannon stopped, there would be a tragic tearing.

-

"Kill it!"

As soon as he heard the charge from the rear, Captain Tanaka, the leader of the devil squadron belonging to the 102nd Infantry Wing of the 114th Division, immediately pulled out his sword and shouted in the direction of Zhonghua Gate.

Looking at the crowd rushing out, he showed ruthlessness on his face, and said to the other squadron leader next to him, Captain Akino: "Captain Akino! When we launch an all-out attack this time, we must capture the city gate before the other troops. ”

"Yes!" Captain Akino nodded, and shouted fiercely: "When we break through the city, we must kill all those hateful soldiers and avenge our revenge yesterday!" ”

-

Listening to the explosion outside, Zhao Zilong felt that the devil attacked Nanjing City for the first time, and the artillery fire he fired was much more powerful than the explosion he heard when he was in the outer position of Fangshan.

The sound of explosions continued to sound on the city wall, and the national soldiers hiding in the hiding caves were all blue and silent.

This round of artillery fire rang out for about half an hour before it gradually stopped.

"Brothers! The devil's artillery fire stopped, and everyone hurried up to the city wall. ”

At this time, Wang Zhong wiped the brick crumbs on his face, shouted, he pulled out the box cannon, and was the first to rush out of the hidden soldier cave.

Zhao Zilong shook his head vigorously, and he didn't care about the dust on his face, he picked up the Zhongzheng rifle and followed closely.

The other brothers of the national army also took up arms one after another and followed.

Running up the city wall from the horse road, Zhao Zilong saw that the city wall was incomplete and unrecognizable.

Although the artillery fire stopped, there was still a trace of gunsmoke rising from the city wall that had been baptized by the artillery fire.

At this moment, this tall city was shrouded in those black and gray smoke.

After the explosion of the cannonballs, the smoke of gunpowder that had not yet dissipated, wrapped in the debris of masonry that had been blown into powder, rolled and surged from the head of the city to the bottom of the city wall.

Many of the battlements of the city walls were bombarded by artillery fire. Either it was collapsed, or it was blown away completely.

The floor of the city wall, which used to be paved with huge blue bricks, was full of brick pits of various sizes and scattered stone fragments.

The most striking thing is on the side of the castle tower, where almost half of the pavilion has been swept over by artillery fire.

"The devils are going to attack the city, brothers, shoot!"

Wang Zhong raised the box cannon and fired a shot at the bottom of the city wall, on the side of the moat.

Zhao Zilong had already put his body close to the battlement of the city wall, and he saw a group of earthy yellow crowds rushing towards the moat.

At this time, those brothers of the national army also came to the battlements of the city wall, and raised their guns to shoot at the devil soldiers who rushed over in the distance below.

Zhao Zilong saw at a glance that the row of houses on the other side of the moat had been occupied by some devils.

These devils set up crooked machine guns and heavy machine guns, and fired at the side of the Zhonghua Gate wall.

There is also a squad of devils with grenadiers on the ground, ready to be fired.

These devils were covering the other two teammates charging towards the moat.

The devils who charged all carried ladders and rushed towards the city gate.

Zhao Zilong saw that the wooden bridge over the moat was originally destroyed by the national army sappers last night, but the damage was not complete enough.

The devils were in groups of four or five, or six or seven, carrying a ladder, and they were carrying the ladder to this side of the moat.

In addition, the devil soldiers, who did not carry ladders, kept shooting at the city walls.

Zhao Zilong saw the devils carrying ladders, and as soon as they came to the wooden bridge that had been demolished in the original section of the moat, they immediately built the ladder to the edge of the broken bridge.

These devil sappers are not afraid of death, and braved the constant fire from the city wall to desperately rush to repair, and it seems that they are going to rush to build a new bridge.

Zhao Zilong frowned, immediately picked up the Zhongzheng rifle, aimed at a ghost sapper at the front and fired a shot.

With a bang, the devil sapper who was about to put the ladder on the ground was immediately shot in the chest. He pounced, and the ladder fell along with the unsuspecting devils behind him.

Immediately after, Zhao Zilong quickly pushed a bullet and shot at another group of devils carrying ladders.

When the companion in front of the devil in this group was shot and fell to the ground, the others were implicated and fell to the ground one after another.

However, before Zhao Zilong could fire the third shot, there were already devil soldiers shooting at him, which made him have to dodge.

And the two groups of devils who fell to the ground immediately got up and continued to carry the ladder to build a new bridge.

When those national soldiers saw this, they also shot at those devil sappers one after another.

Woohoo Woo ......

For a time, there was a lot of gunfire on the city wall.

The devil sappers who were rushing to build a new bridge were shot one after another and fell into the moat one by one.

The corpses of those devil sappers floated on the surface of the river, and the blood stained the river red.

And those devil sappers who were not shot are still desperate to build a new bridge next to the broken bridge.

The devils who rushed from behind also rushed forward and backwards to place ladders on the river.

At this time, the devil soldiers on the other side of the moat saw the national troops on the city wall shooting to prevent their comrades from building bridges, and immediately adjusted the direction of the heavy machine guns and machine guns, and continued to shoot at those national soldiers on the city wall.

Da Da Da ......

Bullets rained down on the walls.

Immediately, more than a dozen brothers of the national army could not dodge and were hit by bullets.

Zhao Zilong and the other brothers of the national army all put away their rifles and hid behind the city wall.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, those devil sappers quickly erected a simple new wooden bridge over the broken bridge of the moat.

The devil infantry in the back immediately picked up the 38 big covers, stepped on the wooden bridge, and shouted Long live the emperor, charging towards the city wall.
