Under the fierce firepower, both the attacking and defending sides suffered heavy casualties, especially the dragon tooth commandos who were the attackers, and after paying dozens of casualties, only three soldiers rushed under the wall with explosives bags.

A devil on the city wall spotted them and immediately threw a few melon grenades down. Boom, boom! Several clusters of scarlet flames instantly enveloped the area near the city gate.

The three fighters were immediately hit by the raging shrapnel and fell in a pool of blood.

Seeing this, the deputy battalion commander, who was leading his subordinates to fight fiercely with the devils, was in a hurry, and immediately sent a few more soldiers to rush towards the city gate again with explosives bags.

In the rain of bullets, several fighters, under the cover of the powerful fire of their comrades, rushed over in a thrilling and dangerous way, and quickly detonated the explosive package outside the city gate.

Bang! Several loud bangs, the sky-high flames shrouded the entire city gate hole, and the huge shaking even shook some devils and puppet soldiers on the city wall above the city gate to the ground.

The warriors who had taken refuge on either side of the gate were also knocked to the ground, but they quickly got up and raised their guns to shoot above the walls overhead.

Several Japanese puppet soldiers who were shooting at the city were not careful, and were shot by the rain of bullets from their submachine guns, and immediately fell from the city screaming and falling down to the ground outside the city, and died on the spot.

However, as the flames of the explosion dissipated, the commandos, including the deputy battalion commander, found that the city gate was not blown open, but was still stuck almost immovable.

When I looked closely, I found that the city gate, which looked like a wooden one, was only a little blackened and had some dents.

Didn't even explode?

"What's going on?" All the officers and men of the Dragon's Tooth Column who were still attacking cheered in their hearts at this time, and their morale was naturally also frustrated.

At this time, as the battle progressed, more and more Japanese puppet troops reacted, and reinforcements from the city and Kannai joined the counterattack outside the city.

The firepower of the Japanese puppet army at the head of the city continued to increase, and the pressure on the attacking troops suddenly doubled.

Although Qiao Youhua couldn't directly watch the attack and battle due to the restrictions of the terrain, there were always soldiers who kept sending back the battle situation to him.

Therefore, he has always taken the progress of the war situation into his own hands.

"Commander, the city gate has not been blown open, the defenders have strong firepower, and the casualties of our assault troops are very large, and they have exceeded 100." A soldier who had approached to inspect in front of him ran all the way back to Qiao Youhua, Zheng Yunshan and the others, and saluted and reported to them.

Qiao Youhua's brows tightened suddenly, and he immediately ordered: "Pass my order, the assault team will stop attacking and withdraw immediately." ”

"Yes!" The soldier quickly turned around and took the order, and after receiving the order, the attack had been thwarted, and the commandos, who had suffered nearly a third of the casualties, immediately retreated quickly under the order of the deputy battalion commander.

When the Japanese puppet army at the head of the city saw the dragon's tooth column retreating, their morale was greatly boosted, and their firepower became extremely dense.

During the retreat, there were constantly dragon tooth warriors who were hit and unfortunately fell.

When they had completely withdrawn to the bend 300 meters away, twenty or thirty more soldiers were hit by the rain of bullets on the wall and died a heroic death.

In the first attack, the Dragon's Tooth Column suffered nearly 140 casualties, and it ended in failure, which must be described as heavy.

Commandos, as soon as they retreated around the bend, the gunfire on the city wall of Niangziguan stopped, and the tsunami-like cheers of victory of the Japanese puppet army sounded.
