Chapter 0626 - Escape (Nine Watches)

The Iron Brigade took the lead in launching the main attack on Nanjing City, which caught Matsumoto Kiyoshi off guard, but at the same time, it was also determined that Zhang Zuoguang's plan to surrender failed from another aspect.

If the deception is successful, the Iron Brigade will not have a chance to launch such a large-scale general attack.

"Bagaya Road, the Chinese army has launched a general attack, and our reinforcements have not yet arrived!" The commander of the 35th Division, Yoshimatsu Taiye, said angrily: "Our Nanjing has become precarious! ”

Matsumoto Kiyohari also had a solemn face.

I had already contacted Gangmura Ninji in Beiping by telegram, but now that Japan is constantly expanding its battlefields, the war situation is very tight, and in addition to the anti-Japanese sentiment and anti-Japanese activities in various theaters, it is almost very difficult to draw up surplus troops.

It is precisely because of this that even if an important city like Nanjing was under siege, Gangcun Ningci could not mobilize troops to support it in a short time.

"The only way now is to rely on the fortifications of the city to defend it!" Matsumoto Kiyoshi said in a deep voice: "Pass my order, all troops enter the battlefield position and do their best to defend the castle tower!" If there is anyone who retreats, there will be no mercy! ”

"Hey!"

In any case, if they hold Nanjing, they will have a way to live, and if they can't stand Nanjing, they will have no way to live.

Wang's puppet government Nanjing Military and Political Building.

Lao Wang and Lao Chen also knew at this time that the Iron Blood Brigade had launched a general attack on Nanjing, and they also realized the failure of the fraudulent surrender.

Both of them looked very dignified and ugly at this time.

After a while, Lao Chen spoke: "Lao Wang, I think this Nanjing city can't be defended, and I think it is imperative that we should evacuate Nanjing quickly!" ”

"Evacuate Nanjing?" When Lao Wang heard this, his brows furrowed slightly and said: "Now that Nanjing City is besieged, it is also difficult to evacuate!" ”

"I'm ready!" Lao Chen looked at Lao Wang and said: "A plane is ready, while Nanjing City is still in a melee, we should evacuate Nanjing immediately!" ”

Lao Chen and Lao Wang, who are the leaders of the big traitor spies, asked in their hearts that once they fall into the hands of the Iron and Blood Brigade, they will definitely not end well.

Lao Wang hesitated for a moment and then said, "Okay, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood!" Immediately let the main members of the Nanjing government evacuate Nanjing! ”

"Yes!" Lao Chen said.

Immediately, under Lao Wang's order, the main members of the Nanjing government began to board the plane, carrying important documents of the Nanjing government and many hard currencies such as large yellow croaker and small yellow croaker.

Originally, Lao Wang had long wanted to evacuate Nanjing, after all, the situation in Nanjing was very critical now, and it could be broken at any time.

Some time ago, Lao Wang had already asked some government personnel to transport important documents and belongings away.

To put it simply, Lao Wang and Lao Chen have long wanted to evacuate Nanjing, but with Matsumoto Kiyoshi, an old devil, by their side, they can't escape at all, and now is a good opportunity.

At this time, the four gates of Nanjing City were all under fierce attack by the Iron and Blood Brigade, especially the Guanghua Gate.

The artillery of just one artillery regiment made the little devils on the city tower suffer!

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"Boom ............"

Shells rained down on the towers, causing a series of violent explosions.

Soon, the bombardment of the artillery regiment ended, and immediately the tank formations were in the vanguard, followed by the infantry, and began to charge the city of Nanjing.

"Crunch Squeak......"

The batteries of the Cheetah tank and the Tiger tank are constantly adjusting their direction, on the one hand, attacking the little devils on the city tower, and on the other hand, constantly bombarding the city gate of Guanghua Gate.

The city gate of Guanghua Gate has been sealed by little devils, and it is not so simple to blow up the city gate.

"Give it to me, call me!"

"Fire!"

The little devil officers on the city tower kept roaring and roaring, and all kinds of light and heavy machine guns, mortars, cannons, etc. were all firing fiercely.

"Da Da Da ......"

"Boom ......"

“……”

The dense network of fire and artillery fire condescendingly fired at the attacking Predators, but because it was the tank formation at the front, the armor blocked most of the bullets and artillery fire, blocking the speed of the attack.

"On the Katyusha multi-track artillery, let the little devils taste the power of artillery!" Zhou Weiguo said to the soldiers.

Immediately, the Katyusha multi-track artillery that had just been tested began to move forward under the movement of the truck, slowly approaching the city tower!

"Bullet!"

"Click......"

Before launching, the rocket is clamped with a directional button in the directional groove of the slide rail. In the body of the combat part of the rocket is TNT explosives.

"Launch"

"Whoosh!"

Immediately, the Katyusha multi-track guns began to fire violently.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"Boom ......"

The seven-track Katyusha artillery salvo directly hit the two-story attic on the tower of Guanghuamen City, and the fire and explosion directly covered the entire attic.

“……”

All of a sudden, seven shells poured down on the attic, shattering and collapsing the entire attic on the castle tower, setting off a puff of white smoke and gunsmoke.

Zhou Weiguo observed the battle situation ahead with a telescope, and when he saw the power of the Katyusha artillery, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "It's amazing, the power of this artillery is really powerful!" ”

"It's a secret weapon!" Liu Fusheng was also shocked and said: "This artillery fires a salvo in a row, and it is powerful!" ”

The Katyusha artillery began to move constantly under the movement of the trucks, and the heavy fire on the towers began to fire fiercely.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"Boom ........."

A sudden roar frightened the little devils who were busy fighting back, and then a rapid and dense artillery fire blew up all the little devils on the city tower into the sky, and the explosion was very powerful.

Came and went in a hurry, and in less than 10 seconds, everything fell into dead silence again. Those little devils are puzzled, what artillery is capable of pouring so much ammunition in such a short time?

The Katyusha artillery almost destroyed almost all the heavy firepower equipment on the city tower, and seriously suppressed the fire on the city tower.

"Dada......"

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Immediately, under the fierce attack of the Predators, nearly ten tanks continued to bombard, and the city gate of Guanghua Gate was bombed open.

"The gates are open! Come on! ”

"Hurry up, get out of the city!"

……

The Predator charged up and had the fiercest battle with the little devils in the city, and the battle between the two sides entered a white-hot battle, which was very fierce.

"Da Da Da ......"

Many of the Predators who were charging forward were hit by the Japanese shells, and the whole person fell in a pool of blood, and the little devils saw that the city gate tower had been blown open a gap, and rushed to bet on the gap and the city gate, intending to block the attack of the Predator Brigade.

"Crunch...... Crunch ......"

Immediately, the Tiger tank charged forward, constantly crushing and bombarding the little devils behind the sandbags, and both sides fought the fiercest.

Li Yunlong, who was in the rear, heard that Nanjing's Guanghua Gate had been breached, and he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: ". . . Immediately let the reserve troops go up and use Guanghua Gate as a gap. Break through the defense of Nanjing in one fell swoop! ”

"Yes!" The heralds of the division headquarters quickly went down and prepared.

Immediately, under Li Yunlong's order, the troops directly under the Iron Blood Brigade Headquarters, which were the reserve troops, began to launch a fierce attack on Guanghuamen, and the speed was very fast.

Although the Japanese army in the city of Guanghuamen resisted fiercely, it could not resist the desperate charge of the Iron and Blood Brigade.

"Dada......"

"Boom ............"

One warrior fell, and the other got up again and continued to charge.

Because of the importance of Guanghuamen, the two sides had the fiercest decisive battle and white-knuckle battle here, and the battle situation was very tragic.

Gradually, the Iron Brigade fully controlled the Guanghua Gate.

At the beginning, during the defense of Nanjing, the Japanese army began to attack Guanghuamen at dawn on December 9, 1937, and after three days of fierce bloody battles, it occupied the broken Guanghuamen on the 12th.

One of the important reasons for the massacre of 300,000 compatriots by the invading Japanese army in Nanjing was that they encountered the fierce resistance of the Chinese defenders in the capture of Nanjing, especially in the battle of Guanghuamen, which caused heavy casualties to the Japanese army, and there was a certain causal relationship between the two.

But this time, Li Yunlong's troops only took two hours to break through the Guanghua Gate, and the speed was staggering.
