Ma Dazhi rolled on the spot nimbly, and the bullet almost whizzed over his head, shooting on the hard ground not far away.

At the same time, the MG34 general-purpose machine gun on the roof also opened fire at the right time, the sound of tearing the tarpaulin sounded, a hot tongue of fire erupted from the muzzle, and the dense bullets suddenly flew towards the devil's machine gun fire point like a shower.

Immediately, the dust and smoke of their hiding place were scattered, and the other dragon-tooth warriors hiding in the alley also showed up and opened fire, and the grenadier fired a small grenade at the devil's fire point with a grenadier.

Rumble! With a loud bang, the flames and shock waves generated by the explosion suddenly enveloped the devil's machine gun fire point, and the devil's blockade fire was stagnant.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ma Dazhi and the other three soldiers quickly bent their waists and rushed towards the building where the devil soldiers were hiding.

The four of them took advantage of their own firepower to cover and ran to the brick wall where the devil's firepower point was located, and the devil's firepower point was located within this wall, but the devil reinforced this place, so the grenade thrown by the grenadier just now did not cause them any substantial damage.

Ma Dazhi and the three subordinates glanced at each other, except for him, the other three took off a dark yellow grenade from their bodies, which was a British M36 grenade produced in the Dragon's Tooth Column's own arsenal, which was the standard grenade of the British Army during World War II.

Different from the Japanese army's melon grenade, it uses a friction delay fuse, after pulling the safety, it can be thrown without another bump, and the iron shell contains high explosives, which is slightly more powerful than the small Japanese melon grenade.

The three of them pulled the grenade in unison, and then shot at the same time, and threw the grenade into the fence with all their might.

Boom Boom Boom ...... Three loud bangs exploded, and the inside of the wall was filled with green smoke and fire, but it still failed to blow up the machine gun fire point of the devils, it turned out that the devils had built a roof on the inside of the wall, and these three grenades only blew up their roofs.

The devil inside was wounded, but not dead, and soon a Japanese-style 89 melon grenade emitting green smoke was thrown out of the shooting hole inside the wall.

Ma Dazhi and the other three fighters scolded angrily, and hurriedly dodged and dodged.

One fighter was still unfortunate enough to be hit in the leg by a piece of shrapnel and was bleeding profusely, while the other two fighters got up and quickly pulled him to the side.

Ma Dazhi also got up from the ground, and found that there was a figure shaking in the devil's shooting hole, he didn't care about his crooked military hat, and hurriedly raised his Ying Qiqi to aim at the shooting hole and pulled the trigger.

Syllable! Whoosh~poof! One shot 7. The 7mm bullet was fired into the face of a Devil Heavy who was about to continue firing from the crooked light machine gun.

The powerful rifle bullet instantly smashed his nose and surrounding parts, and his entire face was covered with blood, and the devil machine gunner could not even scream, and fell backwards to the ground, killing him as the bullet rolled violently into his skull.

After this shot, Ma Dazhi was busy pulling the bolt, and at the same time turned around and shouted at his grenadiers: "Grenadiers, aim for me!" One more shot will kill you! ”

Be! The grenadier immediately set up the grenadier and, after measuring and aiming with his thumb, quickly loaded a grenade into the barrel of the grenadier and decisively pulled the firing rope.

Tong! With a muffled sound, a small grenade flew out, turning into a scarlet flame and roaring in the air, falling into the wall where the devil's fire point was located.

Rumble! With a loud bang, the grenade exploded violently on the devil's stronghold, and the devil soldiers whose roofs had been blown up were inevitably killed and injured this time, and all the shrapnel was killed on the spot.

Except for the machine gun group covering the commanding heights on the roof in the distance, Ma Dazhi and the other fighters rushed out of their respective hiding places, swarming forward, and soon easily captured the stronghold of the devils, and continued to attack after a short pause.

Like them, hundreds of small units of the three regiments fought almost similar battles in the large and small residential areas north of the city and west of the city.

Compared with before, the attack of the 2nd Battalion and the 3rd Battalion, the main force of the 2nd Regiment, which was supported by the full artillery fire of the guard battalion, was much easier, although the Japanese troops in front of them were also the most abundant.

However, Qiao Youhua ordered the guard battalion to push the 37mm anti-aircraft guns they were equipped with into the city, and the residential buildings and sandbag fortifications that the devils had temporarily seized became vulnerable under the bombardment of the 37mm anti-aircraft guns that could shoot at direct sight.

Often a few shells are fired past, and the fortifications of the devils will be pierced and destroyed by the high-explosive shells and armor-piercing shells fired by the war defense guns, and turn into a sea of fire.

Therefore, the advance of the second regiment was quite fast.

As the battle continued to advance and the Japanese army retreated, the guard company and reconnaissance company of the 2nd Regiment successfully attacked the area east of the city, joined forces with the 1st battalion that had been blocked outside the east gate, and severely damaged the garrison of the 21st Division at the east gate, and after most of it was wiped out, it occupied the east gate and a large number of nearby houses.

The Japanese garrison at the East Gate had less than two small units and retreated into the city in a hurry.

The situation became more and more favorable for the Dragon's Tooth Column, and outside the city, one of Qiao Youhua's most elite troops had not yet entered the battle.

At the same time, thirty miles northeast of Shimen, the cavalry battalion led by Liu Jianhua and Zhao Tiezhu also met the Japanese reinforcements in the direction of Hengshui in the wilderness.

The strength of the Japanese army in Hengshui has been maintained at about 1,000 people, but not long ago, it was reinforced by a group of cavalry of the Imperial Association Army from Cangzhou, and the total strength reached more than 3,000 people.

When Sugiyama Yuan learned that Shimen was under siege, he ordered the Japanese puppet army in Cangzhou and Tianjin and the Japanese puppet army in Beiping and Baoding to rush south to help in two ways.

First of all, the Japanese puppet army in Hengshui and the surrounding counties rushed to Shimen at full speed and rushed to the aid of the 21st Division.

Therefore, the Japanese puppet army in Hengshui and several surrounding counties quickly assembled, and the total number of troops exceeded tens of thousands, and the troops marched to Shimen from Hengshui, Shenzhou, Anyang and other counties respectively.

Among them, the main force was more than 1,000 people from the Japanese garrison brigade in Hengshui and hundreds of devils from other counties, and the total number of Japanese troops together was less than 2,000.

The rest are all local security teams that have taken refuge in devils as traitors, and traitors and puppet army teams such as the Imperial Association Army, and their combat effectiveness can be imagined.
