( ) "Tutu Tutu Tu ......"

In the sky, gray Japanese fighters swooped down, and the continuous bullets seemed to draw a line underground, a line that began inside the city and continued to the outside of the city, and a few soldiers in gray cloth uniforms fell crookedly near the bullet marks

On their shoulders, the red cloth on the ring of the big knife shook in the wind, as if regretting that they could not really fight the devil hand-to-hand and could not show their skills

The war was brutal but the same as the "Nanjing Massacre", which was carried out against the soldiers and civilians who had laid down their arms. Rape is much simpler than the cruelty on the battlefield

At the head of the city was still the 186th Regiment, and although the casualties were much greater than when the battle began, the entire regiment remained largely intact

This was the most outstanding battle after the official start of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the defenders of a regiment in China faced the defense of the Japanese army's aircraft, artillery, and tanks

In the battle under the city of Taierzhuang, the losses of the Kuomintang army were close to the losses of the Japanese army for the first time, and there was even a possibility of overtaking

However, at this moment, the battle situation under the city of Taierzhuang is not optimistic, and the former detachment has now become two, and the number of Japanese troops has increased from more than 10,000 people in the past to about 20,000, including heavy artillery, tanks and other weapons, because of this reason

Relatively speaking, the number of defenders in Taierzhuang City was weak because of this, especially this time the Japanese army's attack was clearly different from the previous attacks

The last aerial strafing and bombardment of the evening was followed by shelling

This kind of attack began last night and ended early this morning, and then the planes attacked in turn, strafing and dropping bombs, and continued uninterruptedly

In this situation, the defenders continued to suffer more casualties, and more importantly, some "gasoline barrels, cannons" and "accordion multi-barrel grenadiers" were destroyed, and the pontoon bridge connecting the canal was also reduced to pieces in the bombardment

The interruption of supplies caused the combat capability of the defenders to decline rapidly, and the training of the original squadron was very inadequate compared to the Japanese army, and the Second Army, which was urgently transferred from Henan, had many untrained recruits because of the loss in Shanxi, and the overall combat quality further declined

If it weren't for the "Hail Personnel Kill Bomb", a weapon that can cover the attack at any time, I am afraid that Taierzhuang would be as brutal as it was in history

But now, so many days have passed, Taierzhuang is still the fifth commander of the crown to defend the city, and although his subordinates have suffered certain losses, they are still basically intact in terms of establishment

So will they be able to hold on tonight?

Rows of shells fell on the city wall, this time it was obvious that the Japanese army besieging the city had spent a lot of money, not only the 57 mm guns of the tanks, but also the Type 92 infantry guns and 37 mm anti-aircraft guns, all of which were attacking the city wall

Shells fell on the spots, especially those anti-aircraft guns, which had an ultra-long range and attacked in an almost continuous manner

This attack brought casualties to the defenders at the head of the city, and at the same time, it brought a lot of pressure, and everyone felt that tonight was like the end of the world

Although the thick-eyed and big-eyed recruits had learned to distinguish the sound of the shells flying during the shelling, they could hardly hear anything in such a dense artillery fire, and could only hear some "whirring" and similar tsunami-like sounds, and by the light of the occasional explosions, he saw the veterans around him

The usually confident veteran was still holding a cigarette pouch at this time, but unfortunately his trembling hand couldn't light the cigarette pouch pot

"Wipe ......"

The new soldier struck the match with his hand and lit it for the veteran squad leader, but he just grinned and made a smile, and then continued to endure the almost non-stop shelling with a blank expression

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The air waves swept through the city, driving away everything that could be lifted off, and the female wall on the head of the city was almost completely lost under the continuous attack of small-caliber anti-aircraft guns, and the original fortifications on the city head had been almost completely destroyed, even the fortifications that were later built with sandbags were lost under this dense artillery fire

"It looks like the little devil is in a hurry, but unfortunately I don't know if I can survive today"

The habitual thick eyebrows and big eyes, the recruit touched the little jade Buddha on his neck again, and the confidence he once had dissipated, and now the future became uncertain

"Relief of suffering, relief of suffering, ...... of Guanyin Bodhisattva"

In his muttered whispered prayers, a large group of Japanese infantry outside the city was quietly approaching the city wall while attacking with artillery fire, and the attack tonight was to make the Chinese defenders on the city wall frightened under the pressure of artillery fire, and not only that, but in order to attack, the three Japanese brigades advancing were also equipped with extremely strong force

First of all, let's talk about grenadiers, because the squadron concentrated on using grenadiers, which gave an excellent hint to the attacking Japanese infantry, in addition to the original grenadiers of each squad, this time the attack was equipped with a special grenadier detachment and a mortar detachment

Type 97 90mm light mortars in the battlefield south of the Yangtze River in China, the importance of this kind of artillery to the Japanese infantry wing is higher than that of the mountain artillery or field artillery of the wing, but it is a pity that each wing is only 4~6, the number is really small to be negligible

If you have watched "Band of Brothers" and "Pacific War", you will find that the future American paratroopers and marines 60mm mortars are combat weapons equipped to the front line, and the number of large-caliber mortars will be even greater

In contrast, the equipment of the Japanese army can only be described as shabby, but against the squadron, it is naturally more advanced

This time, the Seya detachment, which had suffered several times, almost poured out, throwing all its defenses at the Sakamoto detachment, and even the latter sent an infantry wing to participate in the attack on Taierzhuang

We know that in this battle, once Taierzhuang falls as the main support point of the nearby positions, then the situation on the entire front may be reversed, so both the Chinese defenders and the attacking Japanese troops hope that they can really fight each other in the battle tonight

"The devil, the devil is up......"

Because of the blockade of artillery fire, all the defenders could only hide in the anti-artillery holes, and endure the explosion that tormented people's nerves and could break down at any time

However, what no one expected was that this time Little Japan played a flower job that no one dared to play

A large group of devil soldiers successfully reached the section of the city wall illuminated by the searchlight under the cover of artillery fire, and they all bowed down and were ready to follow the order, and at the moment when the artillery fire stopped, they would burst into the city from the city wall that was sure to be blown down

The shells of their own side exploded nearby, and the landing point of the shells was precisely the "flower work" played by the Japanese commander this time

When the artillery attacked, the target of the curved artillery was the head of the city and the city, and the main task was to use artillery fire to cut off the reinforcement channel from the city to the head of the city, and even after the attack began, it would not stop until the Japanese infantry landed in the city and sent a signal back

In addition, the main attack on the wall is direct artillery, and the shells are like chisels, targeting the root and middle and lower parts of the wall, and if you "chisel" a large enough hole there, the wall will collapse under its own gravity

Finally, a wide enough attack path is a guarantee to send enough troops into the city, even under the attack of the opponent's dense grenades and air-burst grenades, and most importantly, the faster you can mix with the defenders, the more difficult it is for the city's support firepower to work

At this point in the battle, the Seya Detachment, which was tasked with the main offensive task, had a deeper and deeper understanding of the reality of the city defense troops, and therefore had this operational plan for which various branches of the armed forces had a high degree of coordination requirements

It was nearly midnight when the shelling stopped as planned, and at this time the observation post at the head of the city spotted the Japanese soldiers under the city, and they began to call, but before the men they had sent out had given their coordinates to the "gasoline cannons" and "accordion multi-barrel grenadiers" squads, the infantry in the anti-artillery holes were rushing to their positions with their guns in their hands

Suddenly, as if the sky was falling apart, the Japanese artillery group supporting the attack came with a salvo

90-mm mortars, 37-mm anti-aircraft guns, 57-mm tank guns, 70-mm infantry guns, 150-mm heavy guns rang out almost at the same time

All this went according to plan, and even the time when the defenders came out of the anti-artillery holes and carried the grenade boxes to the battle positions, they studied it, and almost instantly the defenders suffered a big loss under such an attack

"Hoo ......"

The dense trajectory of the artillery bombardment streaked across the sky like a large red net towards the city, and the running defenders and the squads of "gasoline barrels, cannons, and accordion grenadiers" that had already arrived at the point below the city were almost all stunned for a moment

"Get down ......"

The veteran squad leader's voice seemed to be being torn, and then he turned around and threw himself on the recruit, and the two of them rolled down the slope

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

The explosion sounded, and the dense and inaudible and innumerable defenders tried their best to keep their bodies close to the ground, desperately covering their ears and opening their mouths wide, this is a way to prevent shelling deafness, but unfortunately everyone is frightened and guesses that under such a density of artillery fire, such a preventive means will work

The human body was torn apart by the shells, and the soldiers who fell in pools of blood hugged their broken legs and wailed, but these sounds were not heard at all in the continuous shelling

Outside the city, the Japanese infantry brigade approached and began to charge, and the reason why they said that it was risky was because they could be hit by their own artillery shells at any time as they advanced

In a normal army, most people would not consider taking such a risk, but with the spirit of "bushido" and the tradition of absolute obedience to their superiors, the Japanese soldiers howled and pounced even if they died

I would like to remind you here that this is not an honor, nor is it the basis for proving that Japanese soldiers are the best soldiers, this is a kind of mental pathology, a psychotic gambler's fanaticism, this is not excellent, it is a manifestation of ignorance to the extreme

However, it was in this psychotic way of attacking that they finally landed on the top of the city, the "accordion multi-pipe grenadier"
