Looking at the burning armored vehicles at the city gate, the Japanese infantry who were responsible for the main attack seemed somewhat surprised. At least in their opinion, this kind of production of burning flasks to counterattack tanks and armored vehicles is actually rare.

It's just that I have to say that this method is undoubtedly very useful for the thin-skinned chariots of the Japanese army. The driver of the armored car and the machine gunner, who had planned to slaughter the blocking troops in the cave of the city gate, soon could not withstand the blazing flames and smoke.

Unfortunately, when they ran out of the armored vehicle, their hair and clothes were quickly set on fire. Looking at the scene of turning into a burning man and rolling on the ground and screaming, many Japanese infantry who fantasized about entering the city early were a little frightened.

Fortunately, the Japanese commander, who was in charge of directing the battle, also knew that the offensive could not be stopped. In addition to the artillery bombardment of the city walls, the infantry was also ordered to extinguish the burned armored vehicles, and other vehicles were dispatched to strafe them.

But at this time, the machine gunners who had been desperately shooting on the sandbags in the city gate cave had disappeared without a trace. This also means that no matter how sharp the firepower of the armored vehicles is, they will also not find a target for them to vent.

'Go up to a squad and go to the front to set up a blocking position. The rest of the team, clean up the sandbags in the city gate hole! ’

The leader of the Japanese squadron, who was in charge of serving as the vanguard, quickly dispatched two squads to attack. In order to avoid another attack, the Japanese squadron leader also felt that it was better to send people to climb into the city first and establish a blocking position in front.

In this way, it will be safer to carry sandbags. It's just that they have to crawl through the reserved passage into the city, so that these little devils who plan to climb up the city will once again encounter an ambush that makes them gnash their teeth.

Just when a small group of little devil infantry climbed the sandbag in the hole of the city gate and began to go to the other end of the sandbag to establish a blocking position. Before the little devils of this team entered the city, the little devils who had just jumped out realized that something was wrong.

The reason is that on both sides of the city gate hole, there have been defenders waiting for a long time. Until they crawled out, they couldn't see these ambushed troops at all. By the time they saw it, it was too late to react.

'Hit! Hit me hard, I want to go into town! Dream! ’

The officers and soldiers defending the city who were ambushed on both sides were not all soldiers of the reconnaissance regiment, but also some soldiers of the garrison brigade. Looking at this kind of live target crowded together, and at such a close distance, even the recruits didn't feel a little scared.

As the recruits shoot in a trembling voice, and successfully kill the first little devil. The recruit suddenly felt that the little devil did not seem to be as terrifying as he imagined. One shot will also kill.

With such self-confidence, even if the recruits felt a little disgusted, they slowly adapted to the situation. The veterans of the reconnaissance regiment who cooperated with them were more likely to fill in the gaps for them. Clean up those little devils who have the potential to be a threat.

The tactic of blocking the little devil in the hole of the city gate was naturally also thought up by the soldiers of the reconnaissance group. Under such an unfavorable situation, it is undoubtedly impossible for the little devil to want to attack the city from the city gate hole.

The little devil standing at the other end watched the little devil who crawled over being shot and killed, and he also knew that there was an ambush on both sides of the city gate. Even if they wanted to help, they couldn't help at all, and the city gate completely limited their support.

It was precisely because of this that they could only watch this infantry squad being killed by the defenders of the city in the city gate. And the commander of the Japanese squadron in command also knew that sending troops in this way would not help at all!

Most importantly, the ambushes hiding on the inside of the walls, they were unlikely to be able to carry out artillery bombardment. Because that place is simply a dead end of shelling. This means that it is unlikely that you will be able to break through the city gate.

'Get out! ’

Realizing that the attack was not going well, the commander of the little devil would not be stupid enough to continue to send troops to crawl over. Sending troops to crawl over will only kill these soldiers in vain. This also means that it is impossible to enter the city through the east gate.

The commander of the Japanese wing, who was in charge of directing the troops into the city, was also surprised when he heard the news coming back from the front: "What about it? Did they block up the gates? Didn't they even think about getting out of here? Yaga! ”

It is clear that a garrison force that does not even leave a back road for itself will also be a very difficult force to bite. This means that if they want to attack Huaibin City next, they must think of other ways.

When this situation was reported, Yoshio Shinozuka was also surprised and said, "Well, this city defense force still has such courage?" Do you know about the commander of this unit? ”

'I know that the commander of the garrison brigade in Huaibin City is called Liu Nuosheng, a colonel, who used to serve as a battalion commander in the main force of the Central Army. Two years ago, he was transferred to Huaibin as the commander of the garrison regiment, and was promoted to brigade commander only after the expansion of the garrison force.

According to the information detected by our intelligence department, although this Liu Nuosheng had the experience of serving as a commander in the regular army. But the level of its command does not seem to be very good? How did he come up with this kind of tactic? ’

It can also be seen from the information provided by the intelligence officer that the Japanese army has indeed done a very good job of infiltrating and collecting intelligence from the Central Army. Even the commanders of this kind of garrison, they all know the severity and details of the other party.

But after listening to the intelligence officer's report, Yoshio Shinozuka also frowned and said, "Eight Ge Yalu!" Looks like they're going to fight to the end? Order our troops in the south and west of the city to try to attack as well, and see how the other two gates are doing! ”

It's a pity that when the other two siege departments also blew the city gates open, they found that the same situation was the case. Even after the north gate was blown open, the gate hole that entered the city was covered with long sandbags, so that the little devils were not allowed to enter the city.

'Yaga! It seems that the rebels in this city, they want to resist to the end! Artillery units were ordered, and the shelling of them continued. Then send in an engineer unit to prepare for a blasting operation and blow down a section of the city wall. ’

'General, the ancient city wall of Huaibin was built relatively strong on the east and west sides. If you want to blow up, you may only have to choose the north and south! ’

'Blow up the wall to the south and let the 10th Infantry Wing move the main force there. In addition, the tanks and armored vehicles in the east and west of the city were moved to the south of the city to stand by. As soon as the sappers finish blasting, rush into the city for me! ’

'Yes, General! ’

Huaibin City, who originally thought it was within reach, turned out to be a hard bone to gnaw, and Yoshio Shinozuka naturally looked very angry. What made him even more angry was that in the previous attack, he had lost a lot of attacking troops.

In addition to the losses of infantry, there were also losses of tanks and armored vehicles. And most of these lost tanks and armored vehicles were damaged because of the burning * bottles. And their harvest doesn't seem to be visible now.

Looking at the slowly darkening sky, Yoshio Shinozuka suddenly realized that it was unlikely that he wanted to go into the city for dinner tonight. Even if the sapper blasting is successful, it will take a lot of time to clear out the Huaibin garrison brigade that intends to defend in the city.

Thinking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka finally said: "Order the 63rd Infantry Wing to start setting up a temporary camp." Looks like we need a night fight tonight. For safety reasons, it is advisable to set up temporary camps. ”

'Yes, Your Excellency, Division Commander! ’

The chief of staff of the division, who heard the instructions, soon dispatched the 63rd Infantry Wing, which was directly under the division, to begin setting up a temporary camp in a small valley not far from the city. And their actions naturally did not escape the sight of the reconnaissance team of the Eighth Route Army.

It was learned that the Japanese army had begun to set up temporary camps, even not far outside the city. He Zhengdao also smiled and said: "It seems that the little devils know that they want to go into the city to rest, but I'm afraid it's impossible." Now, we're almost ready to act.

Give electricity to the artillery units so that they can begin to prepare. The field artillery battalion, the target they hit, is the mountain artillery wing of the little devils. Once the general offensive has begun, it is necessary to destroy their artillery positions as quickly as possible.

As for the heavy artillery battery, their target is the temporary camp of the little devils. Let the reconnaissance team calculate the parameters there a little more accurately. When the time comes to launch a general attack, artillery strikes will be carried out directly on their headquarters.

In addition, the troops responsible for the defense of the artillery positions were ordered to begin laying mines on the road to the positions. If nothing else, once we start shelling, the tanks and armored vehicles of the little devils will definitely come straight to the artillery position. ”

After recording these combat orders, He Zhengdao began to say again: "Order the first division, you can start to move towards Huaibin City." Order our reconnaissance units to clear the patrols on the perimeter of the Japanese army from now on.

Order the electronic detachment, after the general attack starts, implement radio wave interference, I want the little devil to know what despair is. Tonight, I want to make the 10th Division also the swan song of the little devils, and let it become history completely! ”

After the murderous words came out, Luo Ruiqing also knew that tonight, these little devils who entered the ambush circle were afraid that there would be no good fruit to eat. This night, for them, I am afraid it will be a very difficult night.

With the sapper unit of the little devils, under the cover of infantry and armor, they successfully planted explosives under the southern wall and detonated them. After a series of loud noises, a gap of more than ten meters soon appeared.

Before the smoke cleared, the tanks, which had been waiting for a long time, attacked. The infantry following the tank also began to advance towards the gap in an orderly manner. They knew very well that as long as the tanks and armor entered the city, tonight's victory would be theirs.

Knowing that the tank squadron had successfully entered the city, Yoshio Shinozuka also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yo breath! The 10th Infantry Wing was ordered to resolve the battle as quickly as possible. At the same time, the 39th Infantry Wing was ordered to prepare to enter the city and clear it. ”

Looking at the little devils who began to pour into the city, the defenders of Huaibin City, who were responsible for blocking the guards, also began to fight with the Japanese army in the streets. And the little devils who entered the city, looking at the collapsed houses and blocked streets from time to time, also looked extremely angry.

Because they found that the tanks entering the city were also in a situation where there was no way out. In this case, they wanted to move forward quickly and deal with the resistance forces stationed in the city, but they had to rely on the infantry to keep clearing and advancing.

In this way, when will this battle be fought, I am afraid that there is no bottom in my heart! (To be continued.) )
