After a while, the first round of shelling of the devils ended.

"Order, heavy machine gun cover fire, the advance guard squad began to attack." The squadron leader ordered as he looked at the city wall of the Shina people, who were no longer alive.

After receiving the order, the leader of the avant-garde team who had just returned to the city wall immediately pulled out his command knife excitedly.

"Kill it," the squad leader shouted loudly, and rushed out of his offensive position with dozens of soldiers behind him carrying several ladders.

"Brothers, rush up with me, the devil's shelling is coming to an end." Looking at the already dispersed shells, the regiment commander immediately ordered. Sure enough, just as the warriors returned to the walls that had been blown into ruins. The shelling of the devils is over.

"Regiment commander, company commander, the devil has attacked." A squad leader ran up to the two of them and said.

"Well, squad leader, how is it, are the casualties of the soldiers large?" Looking at the squad leader with a face full of gunsmoke, the regiment commander asked.

"Five killed and two wounded. There are five more people who can fight, including me. At the mention of casualties, the squad leader was frustrated for a while, gritted his teeth and replied.

"Damn, little devil, I'm at odds with you. The wounded were immediately carried to the rear, and the five people who could fight immediately returned to the team and prepared to participate in the battle. The regimental commander didn't say anything, and immediately ordered.

"Commander, the devil is here." The soldiers of the guard company, who had been observing the devil's offensive position, saw a squad of devils walking out of the offensive position, and immediately shouted to the regiment commander behind him.

Hearing the devil, the regiment commander hurriedly raised his binoculars. I saw that four hundred meters in front of the city wall, about a small team of devils appeared in his field of vision. They approached the walls at a trott, marching in loose attack formations, rifles with bayonets on their hands.

"Order the fighters to be ready for battle, and wait for my order to shoot."

"Da Da Da" As soon as the regiment commander's words were spoken, the four heavy machine guns covering the devil's attack opened fire. A dense stream of bullets swept towards the battlements where the warriors were. Several fighters were caught off guard and were immediately swept to the ground by bullets that pierced through the earth, and fell to the ground in pools of blood.

"Quick, get down, don't look up without my order." Looking at the few soldiers who fell in a pool of blood, the regiment commander shouted anxiously.

After seeing that the soldiers were all lying safely on the battlements, no one was hit again. The regiment commander put his mind at ease, found the blind spot of a devil's heavy machine gun, and slowly poked out his telescope. At this time, under the cover of heavy machine guns, the speed of the little devil's attack was significantly accelerated. At this time, the devil was only 200 meters away from his defensive wall.

"Commander, let's fight, if you don't fight, it's too late!" Looking at the devils who were getting closer and closer, the guard company commander said eagerly.

"Don't worry, when the devils get closer, let's give them a sudden blow, and it will definitely cause big casualties to the devils." The head of the regiment patiently explained.

150 meters, 100 meters devil's attack speed is getting faster and faster, and finally, the little devil is about to reach the range of the grenade.

"Fight" the regiment commander shouted loudly to the soldiers beside him. In an instant, the warrior lying behind the battlements was like a spring on his buttocks. Hearing the order, he bounced up and lay on the wall that had been blown out of shape.

More than a dozen light and heavy machine guns of the "Da Da Da" guard company, together with more than 100 rifles, shot a dense rain of bullets and swept towards the charging devils. Those light and heavy machine guns were the heavy weapons of a regiment of the Northern Expeditionary Army. However, the bullets, although dense, are not very effective. Because the formation of the devil's attack was too sparse, after hearing the gunfire of the guard company opposite, the team leader who led the team ordered his soldiers to lie on the ground at the first moment, dodging the dense rain of bullets just now.

"Damn, the little devil is cunning enough." Seeing that his dense bullets only hit a few devils, the regiment commander said depressedly. However, at this time, he was not allowed to think too much. Because as the soldiers' guns rang out, they also told the Japanese squadron leader that there were many Chinese soldiers staying on the city wall in front.

"Artillery, mortar squads immediately opened fire, covering the advance guard squad to continue the attack." The squadron leader ordered loudly, and was also surprised that these Chinese soldiers were able to dodge their own artillery bombardment just now.

The "Boom, Boom, Boom" four-way cannonball fell on the city wall, and the two soldiers were immediately torn to pieces by the violently exploding shells, leaving not even a single intact corpse. At the same time, the avant-garde squad lying on the ground also set up three crooked handles that charged with the team and began to cover the fire. The infantry also began to shoot accurately at the walls. ,

"Boom, boom, boom" Four more shells fell on the city wall, and several soldiers fell silently in the trenches again. At the same time, under the precise shooting of the devils, several fighters were already shot in the head and fell in pools of blood.

"You can't fight like this, if you fight like this, the casualties of the soldiers are too great." The regiment commander clenched his fists tightly and said.

"Don't worry, the regiment commander, the guard company will fight to the last person, and they will not let the devils rush into the city." The guard company commander said through gritted teeth after firing a shuttle of bullets.

"What fight to the last person, there is still a city of people behind us, and I will let other companies replace it when the time comes." After listening to the words of the guard company commander, the regiment commander said angrily.

"Yes, Commander. The brethren prepare grenades. The guard company commander yelled at the soldiers behind him.

The commander of the guard company looked at the devils who were getting closer and closer, and when the distance was about the same, he shouted, "Throw." ”

"Bang bang..."

Many of the Japanese soldiers in a small group close to the city wall were directly hit by grenades, and immediately went to see their Aunt Amaterasu.

"Yaga!" The squadron leader was furious when he saw that the attacking troops were not as he expected, and that the defenders on the city walls were very difficult. Another squad was then ordered to help the vanguard squad. He just wanted to take the city wall quickly, and there was the captain and the wing commander watching the battle behind him.

"Listen, brethren. The people are watching us from behind, and the people are on the city wall, so they all concentrate their firepower on me and fight," after the commander of the guard company shouted, he set up his combat position. At the same time, regardless of the bullets flying above his head, he resolutely poked his head out and fired at the oncoming little devil.

"The man is in the wall." All the warriors on the city wall shouted together, resolutely stood up, and began to shoot at the little devil.

The machine gunner in front fell, and the backup shooter did not hesitate. Immediately took the light machine gun that was ready to land and continued to fire. When the machine gun was finished, the rifleman next to him continued to make up for it, and he fought desperately, although the fire of the ten light and heavy machine guns on the city wall did not stop. However, under the blows of intensive Japanese fire, the casualties of the fighters were very huge.

In less than two minutes, at least four fighters fell next to almost every light and heavy machine gun. At this time, there was only about one platoon of troops left on the entire city wall.

The regiment commander saw that the guards company had suffered heavy casualties, and immediately called the soldiers of the two companies to the city wall to replace the guard company, which had already suffered heavy casualties.

Looking at the two squads of Imperial soldiers, half of the squad was killed and wounded, and they couldn't even get close to the city walls. If it continues like this, it will not be possible to take the city wall at all, just when the squadron is ready to personally lead the attack. The Wing Captain, who was observing from behind, walked over.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Captain, but I'm incompetent." The squadron leader lowered his head and said to the wing commander who came over.

"No, this is already very good, I didn't want to take Jinan with a squadron of soldiers. Now I am in command of the attack, and the brigade commander has transferred to me a brigade of artillerymen, and this time I will let the people know that what has just happened is nothing more than an appetizer. The co-captain looked at Jinan City in front of him and said.

The pace of the Japanese attack stopped, and the Japanese troops in front also retreated.

The guard company on the city wall was also replaced, and the regiment commander saw that there were more and more Japanese troops under the city, and he had a bad premonition in his heart. And now there is no order from the command at all, so they go into battle by themselves, and if the troops are exhausted, then how to explain to the headquarters. If you can keep Jinan, you are not afraid, in case you can't keep it, it will be too unworthy. Thinking about the Northern Expeditionary Army, which was killed and disarmed by the cabinet a few days ago, the regiment commander had a cloud of anger burning in his heart, who cares about him, if he can't keep it, he can't defend it, and it's a big deal to explain himself here, which can be regarded as worthy of his conscience.

Seeing that the two companies of more than 300 soldiers were preparing in an orderly manner, the regiment commander shouted directly: "Brothers, everyone knows that a few days ago, we had a brother of a division who was killed by devils, what should we do?" ”

"Revenge!"

"Let's think about it, if the devil enters the city, what kind of evil will be created, I am here to explain to you, the whole regiment of soldiers will fight to the last person, and they will also guard the city wall for me, and fight with the devil."

"Fight with the devil, fight." Both companies roared in battle. Even the other battles in the rear, ready to come to support at any time, roared.

"Okay, it's all with handles! Brothers, bring the wine, drink this glass of wine with you today, and fight to the death. ”

After a few minutes, several soldiers carried two large jars of wine and hundreds of bowls and went up to the city wall. The soldiers under the city walls also had a bowl of wine each, as did the guard company that had just retreated.

"Brothers, it was the master who did it with me, I won't force it if I don't drink, put down my weapon and leave on my own, I won't pursue it." The head of the regiment picked up the wine and shouted, and after speaking, he raised his head and drank the wine in the bowl directly, and then threw the bowl on the ground and directly broke the bowl to pieces.

Hearing the words of the regiment commander, no one left, and everyone was very angry in the past few days by the devils, and their own regiment commander dared, why didn't they dare. The soldiers of a regiment of the entire Northern Expeditionary Army smashed the bowls they had drunk on the ground.
