Chapter 259: City Attack and Defense (Part II)
Hearing this, Zhang Cheng only sneered, anyway, it is of no practical use to himself, he can toss as much as he likes!
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of gunfire in the city. www.biquge.info Soon, Sun Feixing reported to Zhang Cheng that the devils were too cunning, and only a small part of them entered the city, and it was impossible to kill them silently, so they had to shoot decisively and annihilate all the devil squad. The observation post on the city wall also noticed the presence of a large number of Japanese troops outside the south gate, heard the sound of gunfire in the city, and had stopped advancing and began to build positions on the spot.
Zhang Cheng ordered Sun Feixing to retreat quickly, and at the same time ordered all units to enter their respective positions, if nothing else, the devils would immediately attack, and this round of artillery bombardment is estimated to be indispensable.
As soon as Zhang Cheng returned to the headquarters, the rumbling explosion outside sounded, only shaking the entire air-raid shelter as if shaking, the shells were dense and chaotic, it was simply indiscriminate bombardment, according to the sound of the explosion, Zhang Cheng was almost certain that the artillery fire along the devil's line was not idle, and all mountain artillery, field artillery, and howitzers were fired. According to the report of Hu Rongda, who guarded the west gate, the devil's field artillery and howitzers were fired from the west, and it seems that the devils have begun to attack from the west and south, and it can be seen from the different artillery fire on both sides that it was the devil's 13th division that attacked the south gate, and the devil's 10th division was attacked at the west gate.
The devil's shells stopped for about 20 minutes, and Zhang Cheng hurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie and asked about the casualties of the troops and the progress of the devil's attack. Fortunately, the casualty reports from various departments were better than he expected, because the anti-artillery bunkers were basically built along the moat, and the depth of the moat itself, plus the depth of the bulletproof crater, was three or five meters deep, as long as the devil's shells did not directly hit the moat, it would not bring a large area of casualties. But the devils have already attacked directly under the city wall under the cover of artillery fire, and they attacked at the same time from the southwest side.
Zhang Cheng ordered the artillery to fire outside the city, with walkie-talkies, although all types of artillery are scattered all over the city, as long as the commander climbs the city wall, he can easily direct the artillery fire to the designated position, but the devil's artillery is not vegetarian, it can be said that it is definitely much higher than the new army in terms of quality, basically as long as the artillery shells in the city are fired at the same position to three to five rounds, they will be locked by the devil's artillery, and then give a fierce blow, so the shells fired by the new army can not cause great casualties to the devils, But it still bought time for the soldiers to climb the city wall to defend it, and soon, fierce gunfire rang out on both sides of the southwest, needless to say, both sides used guns, and the devil's attack distance must have been only a few hundred meters away from the city wall.
On the southern city wall. The destruction of the Ninth Division, although there was not much heavy artillery left, but these things were still enough, but there were not enough machine gunners in the new army, and the previous ammunition men had to act as the main marksman, although the accuracy of the shooting was still unsatisfactory, but it was heavy firepower, and it was always possible to meet the unlucky Japanese army, and the other gunfire on the city wall basically covered them all.
On the city wall of three or six meters wide, you can see craters the size of baskets everywhere, it can be seen that the things left by the ancestors are really fucking strong, even under the heavy shell bombardment of the devils, there is basically no place to collapse, but the large gap is not young and old, in order not to step on the crater and hit the foot, the soldiers have filled it with sandbags, and the sand barricades are also piled up on the edge of the gap, the shooters spare no effort to shoot, and the logistics personnel methodically carry up boxes of bullets, put them behind them, and hit the shells on the city wall from time to timeAlthough it will make them stagnate, as soon as the danger is lifted, they immediately continue to move forward, rushing to the next pass, there are already many heroic soldiers and wounded soldiers in the aisle, and the medical guards are determining whether they are still alive one by one, and the wounded soldiers are being dealt with in a timely manner.
Whether it is the quality of the troops themselves, or Zhang Cheng's reasons, the entire army is not a little panicked because of the strength of the devil.
The Japanese troops outside the city wall, with the first round of artillery fire, actually advanced the battle line to a distance of less than 300 meters, and as soon as they were suppressed by the fire of the machine guns, they actually built a shallow serpentine trench in a short time, and the locust-like Japanese troops cowered inside and began to shoot frantically at the new first army on the city wall. Less than 1,300 meters back, there are the 92 infantry guns, mortars, and 75 mountain artillery positions of the devils, and the shells are constantly flying towards the city or the city wall with a screaming sound, and it can be seen that the second round of artillery suppression of the devils has begun.
The danger of the north city wall is comparable to that of the south gate, not to mention the heavy artillery, the more than 20 chariots of the devils actually swung forward in a row, firing cannons and machine guns at the city wall, and the hordes of Japanese troops hid directly behind. The bullets clanged against the armor of the tank, but they hardly caused them many casualties.
Hu Rongda saw all this in his eyes from a pass on the city wall, and immediately howled in a hurry: "Battle defense artillery, bring a few battle defense guns to Lao Tzu, shit, take out this shitty thing to scare Lao Tzu!" ”
Hu Rongda's voice reached the ears of Luo Shiyi, who was observing at another pass, and saw that Hu Rongda appeared on the city wall without knowing when, and he was immediately startled, this cannonball does not have long eyes, in case one is thrown to his side, then it will be returned, and a cat's waist will run over, pushing Hu Rongda out of the pass, and said loudly: "Commander, what are you doing here?" Hurry down, I'll be here!" As he spoke, he waved to the special combat team members around him, signaling them to hurry up and get Hu Rong down.
"What are you doing? Presumptuous, all! Let go of me, and everyone will carry the cannon for Lao Tzu! Hu Rongda waved his hands left and right, took off the hands of the special combat team members, and scolded loudly, seeing that the special combat team members had no intention of continuing, he scolded again: "I tell you, our new army has no commander hiding behind him, hurry up, get a few battle defense guns over, and blast those iron bumps to Lao Tzu, damn it, it's a pity that the distance is a little farther, otherwise a few bazookas will go down, and it will end up in a flash!" ”
