Chapter 349: Let them into the city
By the time the two brigades rushed a hundred meters outside the city, more than a hundred people had already fallen. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, the hit rate of seven or eight hundred riflemen at the head of the city had increased significantly. Every time the Japanese took a step forward, several people were hit by bullets and fell to the ground.
Of course, the Japanese riflemen were not vegetarians either.
As he continued to attack, he held his rifle in his hand. Whenever they get the chance, they will shoot a lethal bullet at the city.
Therefore, when the Japanese army paid a lot of casualties, the riflemen who were hiding behind the city stomp also had people hit by bullets from time to time and fell on the city wall.
By the time the Japanese army rushed 50 meters outside the city, no less than 300 corpses had fallen along the entire offensive road.
However, in the face of the nearby city wall, the remaining Japanese troops not only did not fear, but became more and more fanatical.
Completely in a desperate posture, he screamed and rushed towards the city gate.
Regiment Leader Huang Yongzhong's brows had already wrinkled into a deep Sichuan character at this time.
The ongoing battle, though much easier to fight. However, Huang Yongzhong overlooked one thing, he had run out of grenades.
With only seven or eight hundred riflemen, even if there is no threat from the Japanese heavy machine guns, they can shoot bullets at the Japanese army to their heart's content, but they cannot stop the crazy attack of more than 1,000 Japanese troops.
"Machine guns, machine guns must be used. Without machine gun support, it will definitely not be able to stop the Japanese attack......" Huang Yongzhong said with a gloomy face, muttering to himself.
After finishing, he asked Lin Tao directly: "Chief of Staff, can you draw ten light machine guns to support the riflemen, if possible, the more the better...... There are too many little devils, and the riflemen will not be able to withstand it. ”
"Yes......" Lin Tao, who frowned, replied without thinking about it.
"The Japanese destroyed more than thirty heavy machine guns by us. We also have terrain advantage and artillery cover, one heavy machine gun can fight two Japanese heavy machine guns...... I will immediately draw 20 light machine guns to support the infantry and block the Japanese offensive......"
Soon, these light machine guns adjusted their firing targets.
Twenty tongues of fire and a dense rain of bullets quickly enveloped more than 100 Japanese troops who rushed to the front.
In less than ten seconds, all these Japanese were beaten into a hornet's nest.
The unstoppable offensive of the Japanese army was finally blocked.
But. The Japanese commanders were not fools either.
There were still more than 60 heavy machine guns, although they were pressed and beaten by the condescending firepower of the Liaodong Army, and they could not even maintain sustained firepower. However, the devils still pulled out a dozen heavy machine guns to adjust the target and suppress the fire of these machine guns.
The Japanese army that had just been blocked. Immediately seized the opportunity and rushed forward for more than ten meters.
At this time, the Japanese troops who rushed to the front were less than 30 meters away from the city wall and the city gate.
If you can't find a way to stop them, ten minutes at most. These Japanese with explosives on their backs were able to rush into the city gate hole, blow up the city gate, and enter Fengcheng from the city gate.
Huang Yongzhong, whose eyes had been staring at the Japanese army outside the city, frowned, and immediately ordered.
"Heavy machine gunner, immediately counterattack, staring at the Japanese heavy machine gun and hitting me hard...... Light machine guns, ignore the Japanese heavy machine guns, concentrate firepower, and hit the Japanese attacking troops. Give the Japanese a hard shot. ”
After replenishment, the number of light machine guns of the entire four regiments was fully forty.
Forty light machine guns fired together, and in just a few seconds, the Japanese rushed to the front of one or two hundred people and **** fell to the ground.
In the process, Huang Yongzhong lost more than 20 machine gunners.
However, compared to the results, the loss was well worth it.
After blocking the Japanese offensive again, dozens of machine gunners, who were holding back their anger, immediately adjusted their targets and fired a burst of bullets full of revenge at the Japanese heavy machine gun position.
Japanese heavy machine-gun positions. Dozens of machine gunners were instantly beaten into a hornet's nest by these bullets.
Taking advantage of the gap between the dozens of Japanese heavy machine guns and the silence, more than 60 light and heavy machine guns of the Fourth Regiment finally suppressed the Japanese heavy machine gun fire again.
At this time, there were less than 600 people left in the two Japanese brigades. And it was blocked by the light machine gun fire fired by the Liaodong Army from time to time thirty meters away. It's hard to take a step forward.
Not only that, but under the continuous roll call of hundreds of riflemen at the head of the city, the strength of less than 600 people is still decreasing sharply.
"****, the crisis has finally been lifted......" Huang Yongzhong said with a palpitating look after wiping the beads of sweat that appeared on his forehead because of nervousness.
Chief of Staff Lin Tao retorted with a relaxed face: "Commander." It's not that the crisis is resolved, but that there will never be another crisis......"
At this moment, a familiar and unfamiliar voice of Huang Yongzhong suddenly sounded behind the two.
"Chief of Staff Lin is right, until now, there will be no more crises at the North Gate......
"The Japanese have less than fifty heavy machine guns left in the two infantry wings, and you can completely suppress each other with a maximum of forty light and heavy machine guns. In this way, you will be able to draw at least twenty light machine guns against the Japanese attacking forces. ”
"Commander, why are you here...... The bullet has no eyes, it's too dangerous here......" Seeing Yang Xingguo, who didn't know when he came up behind him, Huang Yongzhong asked with an incredulous expression.
Yang Xingguo shook his head and replied: "The Japanese have no artillery, so they can't help ......me with those heavy machine guns."
"Besides, if I don't come, the other infantry wing of the Japanese outside the north gate will run away......"
"Escape......" Huang Yongzhong asked with a look of disbelief.
Then, he quickly raised his binoculars and looked at the battlefield outside the city.
Sure enough, seeing that his troops had been completely suppressed by the defenders' firepower, the Japanese army still had less than 500 attacking troops left, and it had begun to show signs of retreat.
Just as Huang Yongzhong was about to order his troops to increase their firepower and kill as many Japanese as possible.
Yang Xingguo, who was behind him, suddenly opened his mouth and ordered: "Draw out half of the light machine gun and withdraw from the battle." Remember, come one by one, and don't let the Japanese find out anything......"
"Also, after drawing out an infantry company from each of the two battalions and withdrawing from the battle, we need to be transferred squad by squad, so that the devils feel that we are not strong enough......"
"In addition, weaken the firepower in the direction of the city gate, let the Japanese blow up the city gate, and kill the Fengcheng ......"
When Yang Xingguo's order was given here, everyone had an expression of disbelief on their faces.
Time was pressing, Yang Xingguo didn't explain to them, and after stopping for two seconds, he continued to order: "After the city gate is bombed, the Japanese will definitely follow the city gate to enter Fengcheng......"
"Arrange a company to block the city gate, and after the Japanese army that enters Fengcheng reaches 300 people, I will block the city gate......"
"Four regiments and one battalion, with the twenty light machine guns I just brought, set up an ambush circle at the gate of the city to surround the 300 Japanese troops who broke into the city...... Without my orders, a battalion could only launch an attack on these three hundred Japanese troops, and could not destroy them......"
"The rest of the troops of the fourth regiment continue to hold the head of the city, and they can fight as much as they want, and the only requirement is to hide half of their firepower."
"Half of the hidden firepower of one battalion and four regiments I brought with me, and after the Japanese send out new attacking troops, I will find an opportunity to join the battlefield and give the Japanese the maximum ...... of damage" (to be continued. )
