Chapter 959: The City is Broken

"Brothers, this battle is either won or lost, life or death, we have no way out!"

Seeing this army of little devils surging like a tide, on the wall of the West Gate, Hou Wanshan, the commander of the 110th Brigade, shouted loudly to his subordinates.

"Brigade, we were not afraid when we were in Songjialing, so why should we be afraid at this moment?"

Li Wanzhen, Jin Defang, and other officers and soldiers of the 110th Brigade who came with the wounded responded loudly.

"Excellent! Get ready for battle! ”

"Yes!"

The Japanese attack was the same old routine, first with artillery bombardment, then with infantry charging forward under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, and this time was no exception.

The Japanese 9th Division first bombarded with artillery fire, but this time their bombardment did not last long due to the lack of supplies left.

As for the 110th Brigade, because a large number of Japanese equipment and materials were captured after the end of the First Battle of Songjialing, this time they were not used to little devils.

Almost at the moment when the little devil had just carried out the artillery bombardment, they also gave a return fire, and their firepower was even a little stronger than that of the little devil.

At the end of the bombardment, the city wall of the West Gate of Suxian County, which was not fortified, was suddenly blown out of gaps of different sizes, and the masonry collapsed, falling under the city and splashing a piece of muddy water.

Because the city wall was only so wide, in order to defend the county seat, the officers and men of the 110th Brigade could only hide on the city wall, and there was not enough room for movement, so that nearly 100 officers and soldiers were killed and injured in a round of bombardment by the 9th Division of the Japanese army.

The 110th Brigade was like this, and the Japanese Ninth Division naturally had a lot of casualties, which were similar to the 110th Brigade, with nearly 100 casualties among each of them; The first to bear the brunt were the Japanese artillery, and then the little devil infantry.

"Kill the chicken and give it!"

Jing Shuxuan was determined to take the county seat of Suxian, so he did not give the order to charge until the stock of shells was finished.

In order to be able to smoothly attack the county seat, he had previously ordered the artillery unit to focus on bombarding one position.

As a result, a gap of more than ten meters in length appeared directly on the side of the tower, and the collapsed masonry fell everywhere, mixed with the corpses and blood of the officers and soldiers of the 110th Brigade.

"Fire on Lao Tzu!"

Because there were enough bullets, and the officers and men of the 110th Brigade did not have the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers of the new regiment, Hou Wanshan did not hesitate to pull the trigger when the vanguard of the little devils rushed to less than 300 meters away from the city wall.

Because the Japanese Ninth Division was defeated in the Battle of Songjialing, it lost most of its tanks and armored vehicles, so there were not many tanks and armored vehicles in their hands at this time, so that many officers and soldiers could not be covered by tank armored vehicles, so they could only rush forward hard, praying that the bullets in front would not hit them.

However, although the combat effectiveness and marksmanship of the 110th Brigade could not be compared with the new regiment, because of the geographical advantage and the large number of people, its firepower still caused a great obstacle to the charge of the little devils.

"Fire cover!"

Faced with the strong firepower of the 110th Brigade, the Japanese 9th Division had to divide its firepower to cover.

However, the 110th Brigade was all hiding on the walls with bunkers, so even though they had strong firepower, the suppression effect was not very good.

The only thing that caused the 110th Brigade a headache was the grenadier canisters of the little devils, almost all of which were greeted at their machine-gun positions.

If it weren't for the fact that they captured a large amount of materials and equipment in the Battle of Songjialing, based on their original equipment configuration, I am afraid that they would have been killed by the grenadiers of the little devils.

But like this, Hou Wanshan was still distressed when he looked at the machine gun positions that were constantly being dropped by the Japanese grenadiers.

"Keep pushing forward what I'm given, and give it to the chicken!"

Both sides of the enemy are already red-eyed, and they regard this battle as the last battle of my campaign.

In the face of the rain of bullets and bullets from the officers and men of the 110th Brigade, the Japanese officers and men did not have the slightest stagnation, let alone retreat.

And the 110th Brigade is even more intransigent, many times, in order to be able to annihilate one more little devil, the officers and men of the 110th Brigade have chosen to fight for their lives, knowing that the enemy's bullets are constantly flying over their heads, and they still choose to shoot up, just to be able to aim and hit the enemy more accurately.

As the battle continued, a drizzle began to fall in the sky again, adding to the bleakness of the entire battlefield.

The battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood and gunsmoke, and every moment people were shot and fell, some of them could still struggle to get up, and some of them lay there forever after they fell.

It seems that war is always a look, a scene, full of blood, full of cruelty, and full of death.

It is not a different war at the same time, the warring parties are different, the places of the battle are different, and the number of people who are fighting is also different.

Finally, at the cost of heavy casualties, the vanguard of the Japanese 9th Division successfully rushed to the gap in the city wall.

Under the cover of the machine guns on the tank armored vehicle, the little devil officers and soldiers who followed behind were like tigers descending from the mountain, rushing out directly from behind the tank armored vehicle and striding towards the city.

"Yo Xi!"

"Kill the chicken and give it!"

Seeing that the army successfully rushed into the city of Suxian, Jing Shuxuanshi's face suddenly showed an unconcealable ecstasy.

As for the casualties and costs, in his opinion, as long as he can break through the county seat of Suxian County and successfully complete the task assigned to him by His Excellency the Commander, it will be worth paying no matter how big the price is.

"! Resist Lao Tzu, and you must not let the little devils rush into the city! ”

"Yes!"

Li Wanzhen took the order and led nearly 200 officers and soldiers of the 219th Regiment to rush towards the city, and set up a temporary position at the gap in the city wall, trying to block the Japanese officers and soldiers in the gap in the city wall.

However, the little devils' movements were too fast, and before they could form a position, hundreds of little devils had already rushed into the city and attacked them.

Helpless, Li Wanzhen had to lead his brothers to fight and retreat towards the inner city.

"Hahaha! This humble Chinese can't hold on anymore, kill the chicken and give it! ”

The little devil had a hideous look on his face and rushed towards the city with a wild roar.

"Hold on! Resist Lao Tzu! ”

Retreating to the street house, Li Wanzhen immediately ordered to set up a position with the surrounding houses as cover to snipe the little devil, and he himself kept shooting at the little devil with his own pistol.

Sure enough, because of the private house as a cover, the 219th Regiment led by Li Wanzhen quickly gained a firm foothold.

After paying the price of dozens of casualties in a row, the little devils also calmed down a little, they did not blindly rush forward, but waited for tanks and armored vehicles to rush into the city, and then continued to advance forward with these Iron King Eight as cover.

"Boom!"

A tank shell hit an earthen house next to Li Wanzhen and exploded, and the earthen house could withstand the tremendous power of the tank gun explosion, which collapsed almost instantly, burying several officers and men of the 219th Regiment who were hiding inside.

"!"

Li Wanzhen was also affected, there was a buzzing in his ears, and after he shook his head, he glared at a pair of tiger eyes and gritted his teeth and shouted: "Who can think of a way for Lao Tzu to kill the little devil's Iron King Baba?" ”
