Chapter 15 The fierce battle in Kowloon Town is over

Da-da-da-da. In the dark night, a barrage of bullets came out of the heavy machine gun, and the charging enemy troops fell one after another, boom, boom, and the heavy machine gun was hit by the enemy's shells and was dumbfounded.

This time, the Jiangxi army arranged several artillery pieces to keep an eye on the tanks, and used 37-mm guns with small calibers to roll call the defenders' heavy machine guns one by one.

If it goes on like this, it's going to be over. Captain Zhang Tao, the only one of the four company commanders, is a natural person, said.

Let the artillery carry out fire cover. Another company commander said.

Boom, boom, one shell after another exploded in the middle of the Gan army, and after a volley, the attack of the Gan army was repulsed.

If we can't beat it at dawn, we'll be finished. The brigade commander of the Gan army in the rear said with red eyes.

The first regiment suffered heavy losses, and the second regiment suffered heavy casualties. The chief of staff next to him reminded.

Let the three regiments not concentrate all the troops and weapons, and the three companies must be defeated in order to attack in turn as a column. The brigade commander said viciously.

Boom, boom, the artillery of the Gan army did not care about the life of the ammunition and barrels, and frantically fired at the positions of the defenders.

Half an hour later, hundreds of Gan soldiers launched a charge, and they were greeted by a dense barrage of bullets.

Wang Bai leaned on the tank, with a cigarette stuck to his chapped lips on his lips, and in the distance were dense enemy corpses and his own tattered positions, he didn't remember how many times the enemy attacked, only knew that they had suffered heavy losses so far, and there were only more than 300 soldiers left in a battalion, but the enemy's losses were even more serious, and it was already three o'clock, and when dawn the air force planes would blow up the enemy to pieces.

Wang Bai suddenly heard the sound of tank engines, but it was not theirs, but the direction of the enemy, and the sound of these engines was also very loud.

Wang Bai quickly drilled into the tank, and several flares flew into the sky.

Ten tanks were running over their robed corpses on the bright ground, but they were oddly shaped, had no turrets, and resembled their assault guns, except that there were three of them.

Wang Bai suddenly remembered that he had seen it in that illustrated book, which was a British tank, and it was also the earliest tank in the world, equipped with three 57mm guns, but the speed was extremely slow, and the failure rate was extremely high.

At the beginning, the armored regiment of the new 1st Division was rampaging on the battlefield, leaving a great impact on the officers of the Jiangxi army, in view of the great power of the tanks, Sun Du Junye gritted his teeth and bought sixteen obsolete Mark 1 tanks from the British, equipped with his own ace army, the Second Division, but on the way there were six problems, and only ten arrived on the battlefield.

Fighters of the search platoon, can you kill them? The battalion commander of the major said in the newsletter.

These tanks were built by the British, armed with three 57mm guns, but they were slow, and we could destroy them with the advantage of speed. Wang Bai said.

Sir, we will destroy them. Guo Yi said as a platoon commander.

Okay, go for it. The battalion commander said.

Six No. 2 tanks rushed out of their positions, separated, and flanked from the left and right. Guo Yi said.

The six tanks split in two as if they had met a boulder, and the Mark 1 moved slowly compared to the speed of the second tank.

Boom, boom, boom. The tanks opened fire, but did not hit.

Knock knock, Wang Bai operated the machine gun to hit a series of shells at a Mark 1, the weak armor of the tank was penetrated, boom, the ammunition of the tank was detonated, turned into a pile of scrap metal.

Boom, a shell exploded next to Wang Bai's tank, and the artillery of the Gan army opened fire.

Quick, don't stop. Wang Bai shouted at the driver.

Boom, a tank No. 2 was hit by a shell and collapsed in place.

Damn, all attention, take out the remaining two and retreat immediately. Guo Yi shouted.

Boom, another tank No. 2 was hit.

I was hit, I was hit. A tank No. 2 was hit, the tracks stopped in place, and the guns fired wildly.

Wang Bai, what are you going to do? Guo Yi shouted, and Wang Bai's tank rushed to the enemy's artillery position on Route S.

Do you want to die? Guo Yi shouted.

Knock knock, several Gan artillerymen were smashed to pieces, and the rest fled in a hurry.

After crushing the enemy's artillery, Wang Bai's tank retreated as fast as possible.

The Gan offensive failed again, and this time they suffered heavy losses, leaving only dense corpses.

As soon as the day dawned, the planes sent by the air force arrived on time, *, *, machine guns, and even P38 fighters were strafing the Gan army.
