Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Destruction of the East Tower Airport

In the frontal fortifications outside the East Tower Airport.

Nearly thirty officers and men of the garrison brigade in two squads, except for the necessary sentries, most of them were asleep leaning in the trenches at the moment.

At the gate of the airport, the platoon commander Niu Erzhu walked towards the fortifications with a soldier as usual.

When Niu Erzhu walked into the fortifications for a routine inspection, the "fourth squad" in charge of patrolling returned.

Seeing this, Niu Erzhu kicked a sleeping sergeant squad leader and urged: "Lao Wang, wake up quickly, it's time for your squad to take over the patrol of the fourth squad." ”

Sergeant Wang rubbed his eyes and stood up, and began to beckon the whole class of soldiers to assemble.

Niu Erzhu then turned around and greeted the fourth class who was about to walk into the fortification: "Old Zhou, how is it?" Nothing out of the ordinary, right? ”

However, the elder of the fourth squad, Zhou, did not answer, and none of the dozen or so soldiers of the fourth squad responded, but continued to walk towards the fortifications with their guns on their backs.

Niu Erzhu suddenly became vigilant, and shouted uncertainly: "Old Zhou? What's going on? Why don't you keep quiet? ”

The fourth class still didn't respond, Niu Erzhu immediately pulled out his matching gun and shouted: "Stop? ”

I saw that more than a dozen soldiers in the fourth squad suddenly made an astonishing move, and the leader quickly took off the Garand rifle on his back, and raised the gun in the direction where Niu Erzhu was located.

"Smack!" The bullet hit the fortified bunker next to Niu Erzhu.

"They are enemies! Prepare to meet the enemy! Niu Erzhu was taken aback and hurriedly shot back.

At this time, the dozen or so devils behind the leader had quickly dispersed.

And began to shoot at the fortifications of Niu Erzhu, and the Garand rifle was in the hands of the well-trained and accurate marksman, and the power increased geometrically.

Many officers and men of the Niu Erzhu Platoon had just been awakened from their sleep, and they had just wanted to stand up and show their heads to find out, but they were shot in the head by the devil's precise shot.

The continuous firepower of the Garand rifle was also used to the fullest by the devils, and they worked in groups of three to shoot short bursts at the Niu Erzhu platoon.

It's more powerful than a submachine gun.

Niu Erzhu's two classes were quickly suppressed by more than a dozen devils and couldn't raise their heads.

At this moment, a squad of more than a dozen soldiers guarding the gate of the airport came over at the right time and returned fire with fierce firepower, giving Niu Erzhu and them a precious respite.

Taking advantage of the fact that part of the devil's firepower was attracted by his own reinforcement squad, Niu Erzhu and the soldiers raised their heads to shoot.

"Papapa......" There was a rapid continuous shooting, and the two devil soldiers were shot and fell to the ground.

However, the soldiers of the squad who came to reinforce were knocked down by a few short shots from the devils.

The sound of gunfire had already alarmed the main force of the reinforced company at the airport, and nearly 150 people from the three reinforced platoons were urgently assembled under the command of a captain and company commander.

A regiment of garrisons in the east of Shenyang was also alarmed, and about a platoon of troops was coming to reinforce this side.

However, just when Niu Erzhu's platoon and the devil were in a stalemate, the devil's brigade arrived.

In addition to the heavy fire of hundreds of rifles, submachine guns.

The two MG34 general-purpose machine guns in the fourth squad were fully used by the devils.

There was a roar that was very familiar and terrifying to the officers and men of the Niu Erzhu platoon.

The dense bullets suddenly suppressed the fighters of the Niu Erzhu platoon again, and the remaining fighters of the reinforcement squad were all knocked down.

Niu Erzhu pushed away a dead machine gunner, personally picked up an MG34 machine gun and began to return fire.

However, before he could fire many rounds, a 50 grenade flew out of the 50mm grenadier and landed directly on Niu Erzhu's machine gun bunker.

Suddenly there was an explosion, and Niu Erzhu's whole person was directly overturned to the ground, and several soldiers around him also suffered heavy casualties.

Hundreds of devils, especially the more than a dozen devil strikers who pretended to be the fourth class, immediately took the opportunity to rush up.

Niu Erzhu did not know whether he was alive or dead, and the more than ten surviving soldiers in the trenches were quickly overwhelmed by the tide of devils, and all of them died heroically.

After taking the fortifications, the army launched a non-stop charge towards the airport.

It happened to meet head-on with the main force of the reinforced company that rushed out of the airport to reinforce the second column platoon of the cattle.

A close-range firefight began, and the devils were not only outnumbered, but also armed with a considerable number of submachine guns, and their commander was very clever enough to order the follow-up troops to capture the Garand rifles equipped with dozens of garrison brigades.

Therefore, under the first shot, the reinforcement company suffered heavy losses and was forced to retreat towards the airport.

The reinforcement company retreated, and the devil soldiers immediately took advantage of the situation to chase in, so that all the anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns in the airport were too late to use.

The reinforcements were defeated one after another, and soon the anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns fell into the hands of the Japanese army.

The devil soldiers, who had suffered heavy losses from anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, very cleverly turned the muzzle of the gun and aimed it at the remnants of the reinforcing company that was stubbornly resisting.

Under such heavy firepower, the reinforcement company suffered heavy casualties, and finally had to abandon the airport and evacuate to the west.

Seeing that the reinforced company had fled, the devil Dazuo did not order the pursuit, but left a squad of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns to guard the gate of the airport.

The rest of the people were all sent by him on a demolition mission.

When a platoon of reinforcements from the eastern gate of a regiment arrived outside the airport gate, they were immediately hit by heavy fire from anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns.

After heavy losses, he had to retreat and call for reinforcements in the city.

However, before the reinforcements arrived, there was an earth-shattering explosion in the airport, and from a distance, I saw a raging fire burning in the airport, and the fire rose into the sky with the explosion.

The huge sound resounded throughout Shenyang, and it could be heard clearly for more than ten miles.

On the battlefield of Sujiatun, after a bloody battle, Zhang Xinghan led his troops to finally defeat the attacking troops of the 36th Brigade of the Yue Army and held Sujiatun Station.

However, while the soldiers were busy cleaning the battlefield and rescuing the wounded.

The violent explosion in the direction of Dongta Airport suddenly sounded, and Zhang Xinghan looked at the direction of Dongta Airport with a shocked face, listening to the deafening sound of successive explosions, and was stunned on the spot.

"Tuanzao, it's in the direction of Dongta Airport, could it be that something happened at the airport?" Liu Guodong, the head of the second regiment, said with a look of surprise.

"Guodong, I'll leave the two guard companies to you, and I'll wait for the armored cavalry company to go back and have a look." Zhang Xinghan made a quick decision.

"Yes! Be careful. Liu Guodong said.

At the East Tower Airport, Shiro Kawamoto looked at the East Tower Airport that was caught in a sea of fire with a proud face, and immediately calmly withdrew with his troops.

The platoon that came out of the support from the east gate was unable to pursue it because of heavy casualties.

By the time Liu Jianguo, the commander of the first regiment, arrived from the city with a main regiment, Shiro Kawamoto had already led his troops to evacuate the west bank.

Not long after, Zhang Xinghan also arrived with an armored cavalry company.

Liu Jianguo walked up to Zhang Xinghan with a guilty face: "Brigade, it was my negligence that caused the loss and destruction of Dongta Airport, please punish you!" ”

"Which company is guarding the airfield?" Zhang Xinghan looked at the Dongta Airport in a sea of fire and asked coldly.

"Ninth Company, it's a reinforced company." Liu Jianguo replied.

"Kill the company commander for me!" Zhang Xinghan said coldly.

"Yes!" Liu Jianguo readily agreed without hesitation.

Looking at the Dongta Airport, which was burning and exploded from time to time, Zhang Xinghan said very happily: Fortunately, there is also Beiling Airport......
