Chapter 635: Tears of the People

The county seat of Xiyang County was independently mixed into the Fifth Brigade Headquarters.

Qin Yashang sat on the chair, he took a sip of tea, and a smile appeared on his face.

Using the common people to contain the troops of the new Second Brigade is something that Qin Yashang acquiesces in, and of course such a thing will not appear in any form of reporting, even if the Chinese troops accuse it in the future, the Japanese troops will not admit it, just like they used poison gas bombs.

But when the cannon sound came, Qin Yashang showed a panicked expression on his face, what he was most worried about had happened.

Qin Yashang was worried that the troops of the New Second Brigade would directly shell the city wall regardless of the safety of the people, after all, if Ci is not in charge of the army, a benevolent person cannot be an excellent commander.

Sun Weiguo is an excellent commander, and Qin Yashang is worried that Sun Weiguo will ruthlessly shell the people.

When the cannon sounded, Qin Yashang panicked, he thought that Sun Weiguo had launched an artillery bombardment, and he felt that the county town would definitely be lost.

But the shelling soon stopped, and Qin Yashang immediately sent personnel to investigate the situation at the front.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the Chinese troops have attacked, they are only infantry attacking, without any heavy weapons to cover, and their tanks and cavalry have also withdrawn."

Chief of Staff Zhongzuo immediately came to Qin Yashang's face, and he immediately reported the news he had received.

After hearing the report of Chief of Staff Zhongzuo, Qin Yashang had a smile on his face.

"Contact the 17th Brigade and ask them to immediately use the people to threaten the troops of the New Second Brigade and let them quickly withdraw to the county seat. The combat effectiveness of the new 2nd Brigade is very strong, but there is still a way to deal with them, we have also encountered troops with strong resistance before, but haven't they all been solved by us? ”

When Qin Yashang heard the report of the Chief of Staff of Zhongzuo, the panic on his face disappeared, and he sat down calmly in his chair and continued to drink tea.

Since it is effective to use ordinary people to threaten the new Second Brigade, Qin Yashang will naturally not continue to let the 17th Brigade fall into a bitter battle.

The Japanese troops were invaders, and there were many civilians in the places they occupied, and it was naturally very simple for the Japanese army to find the Chinese people.

As Sun Weiguo expected, the Japanese army tasted the sweetness, and they naturally continued to do the same thing.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Brigade Commander." Chief of Staff Nakasa replied with a smile.

Qin Yashang thought that he had found a good way to deal with the new Second Brigade, but he didn't know that his actions completely angered Sun Weiguo.

Sun Weiguo had already ordered the new Second Brigade to focus on the targets, and the officers and men of the Sixth Cavalry Regiment had already taken Sun Weiguo's words to heart.

THE JAPANESE COUNTERATTACK BEGAN, AND FIVE 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS AT THE CITY GATE BEGAN TO FIRE AT THE EXPOSED INFANTRY GUNS, TWO OF THE THREE INFANTRY GUNS WERE KNOCKED OUT, AND MORE THAN TWENTY ARTILLERY PIECES WERE KILLED.

The only remaining infantry gun was immediately transferred, and the artillerymen were pale, they gritted their teeth, but there was nothing they could do with the Japanese artillery.

The Japanese artillery was hidden in the city, and if they started firing, they would definitely injure the civilians by mistake.

The Japanese light and heavy machine guns on the city wall also began to fire, and the charging soldiers fell to the ground one by one.

"Look, the general of China who wears the rank of major general, quickly strafe him, only Sun Weiguo is the rank of general in the new Second Brigade, he must be Sun Weiguo."

"The first squad concentrated its firepower on the general wearing the rank of major general, kill him for me, and kill him for me immediately."

"Grenadiers, light machine gun fire, immediately contact the machine gun squadron and let their heavy machine guns fire."

The devil soldiers soon discovered Sun Weiguo, and after seeing Sun Weiguo, they were like discovering a new continent, and the Japanese officers began to shout wildly.

For a while, the Japanese light and heavy machine gun fire began to shoot fiercely at Sun Weiguo, and the bullets hit Sun Weiguo like rain.

Sun Weiguo was born in a special forces, and he has a very good quality as a single soldier.

Running quickly towards the "S" route in front, he kept staying on the ground, and Hao Jie and the others were soon left behind by Sun Weiguo.

When he was 500 meters away from the city wall, Sun Weiguo immediately lay down in a depression, and when the grenadier behind fired smoke bombs again, Sun Weiguo immediately picked up the Type 38 rifle.

He took aim in a kneeling position, and the crosshair locked on the steel helmet of a Japanese heavy machine gun shooter, and Sun Weiguo immediately pulled the trigger.

The bullet was quickly fired, and the bullet passed through the narrow gap between the two civilians and hit the steel helmet of the Japanese heavy machine gun shooter.

The Japanese heavy machine gun shooter fell, and the Type 92 heavy machine gun also began to fire mute.

However, the rest of the light and heavy machine guns of the Japanese army still fired fiercely at the officers and men of the charging infantry battalion.

In 10 minutes, hundreds of officers and men of the Jibu Battalion paid the price of more than 70 people.

"Da Da Da!" The Japanese heavy machine guns continued to fire, and Zhang Yujia, the deputy commander of the charging infantry battalion, paused, and seven or eight bullet holes appeared in his chest.

Zhang Jijia's body fell to the ground limply, and several soldiers behind him immediately came to Zhang Jijia's side.

But before they could start the rescue, the bullets from the Japanese heavy machine guns hit again, and the three soldiers fell to the side of the deputy battalion commander Zhang Jijia.

The nearby soldiers immediately moved closer to Zhang Jiaojia, Zhang Zhuojia raised his right hand with difficulty, he first waved his hand, signaling the soldiers not to come, and then he pointed towards the county seat, the Japanese heavy machine gun bullet hit again, Zhang Zhuojia's right hand slowly fell to the ground, and he had no signs of life.

Although his right hand fell to the ground, his fingers still kept pointing at the county seat.

The light and heavy machine gun fire of the Japanese army was very fierce, and every step forward of the machine infantry battalion had to pay a heavy price.

On the road from the starting position to the county seat, the corpses of the officers and soldiers of the special operations battalion were scattered, including deputy battalion commanders, company commanders, deputy company commanders, platoon commanders, squad leaders, and ordinary soldiers.

They have different names, they come from different places, and at this time they have a common name, that is, Chinese anti-Japanese soldiers.

"Don't come here, don't come here, shoot with your cannons, don't fight like this, you'll all die."

On the city wall, an old man said with tears on his face, his eyes looked at the officers and soldiers of the Jibu Battalion, and said in a trembling tone.

Seeing the living life fall to the ground, the old man was already in tears.

They saw the artillery deployed by the 6th Cavalry Regiment on the periphery, even if they were just ordinary people, they knew that as long as the artillery fired, the county town would definitely be conquered.

But the people knew better that the troops of the 6th Cavalry Regiment were concerned about their safety, and that the troops did not use heavy weapons, and the troops took an infantry charge.

"You shoot, kill these devil soldiers, leave us alone, you will be all over if you go on like this."

A woman in her thirties cried loudly, but the guns kept ringing out, and the officers and men of the Jibu Battalion could not hear the voices of the people at all.
