Volume 1: Battle of Songhu Chapter 18: Tactical Genius (II)
said that it was too late, and Xie Gouzi on the other side suddenly straightened up, shook his hand and threw a grenade.
The grenade drew a graceful arc in the air, with a whiff of green smoke falling to the roof of the bungalow, at this time, an amazing scene appeared, not waiting for the grenade to land, a ghost soldier suddenly jumped up, picked up the 38 big cover and smashed it into the air, and blocked the grenade like hitting a baseball.
"Boom!" The grenade exploded when it landed under the rooftop, and the little devil behind the guardrail was not injured.
"Mother." Xie Gouzi cursed, there was no chance when he wanted to throw the grenade again, the rifle bullet of the devil soldier had already chased after him like an eye, if it weren't for Xie Gouzi's habitual evasion action after throwing the grenade, I am afraid that there would already be two more gun holes on his chest, and the little devil's marksmanship was not blown.
The next moment, the two devil soldiers of the grenadier group had already set up the grenadier canister, and only heard the sound of "tom", and a grenade drew a high arc and fell towards the back of the roof where Gao Shenxing was hiding.
Fortunately, Gao Shenxing's soldier is really extraordinary, and when there is no room for fire, this kid suddenly turned a backflip from the roof, and when the whole body fell under the eaves, he suddenly reached into a claw, grabbed the rafters under the eaves, and hung under the eaves, and the next moment, the grenade from the Japanese army had exploded on the roof where he had just hidden.
In the violent explosion, countless tiles and shrapnel shot all over the sky, Xu Shijiu and Xie Gouzi, who were huddled not far from the explosion point, were all scalded by the scorching rubble that fell from the sky, but Gao Shenxing was unscathed, and after the explosion, he turned around and shot the ammunition hand of the devil's heavy machine gun.
Taking advantage of the gap between the rifle firepower of several devil soldiers being attracted by Gao Shenxing again, Xie Gouzi threw out two grenades in a row, and just now the devil soldier really jumped up again, trying to smash the grenade away with the butt of the gun, but this time he was not so lucky, before the ghost soldiers, Xu Jiu shook his hand and exploded one of the grenades with one shot.
"Boom, boom!" After two consecutive waves of explosions, the five devil soldiers hiding behind the cement guardrail all fell in a pool of blood, Xu Shijiu turned around and beckoned, and the veterans behind him swarmed up with bamboo ladders, and soon set up a passage between the two buildings, Xu Shijiu had a long gun in one hand and a short gun in the other, and rushed into the window on the third floor of the opposite bungalow.
There were three devils lying in the room, Gao Shenxing only fired four shots, all three devils shot their heads, the worst was the devil's deputy shooter, the back half of the skull was completely lifted off, the brain marrow was sprayed, only the first half of the cranial cavity remained, if those recruits saw it, they could really vomit out the overnight meal.
Xu Shijiu didn't even blink his eyes, so he and Gao Shenxing and Xie Gouzi did skillful alternate cover movements, and rushed up the stairs to the rooftop.
Before rushing out of the staircase, Xu Shijiu pulled two grenades, counted silently in his heart for three seconds, and then threw them at the corner of the staircase that could not be seen in his field of vision.
Xu 19 rushed to the south side of the rooftop again, poked his head out of the cement guardrail and looked down, only to see that less than 20 meters in front of the left was the intersection of Fusheng Road and Target Road, where the Japanese army had built two barricades in front and back, with about two squads of devil soldiers, as well as two crooked handles and a 92-style.
Kill the Japanese army at this intersection, there are still a small number of Japanese troops at the Zhongzhou intersection in front, and then kill the Japanese army at the Zhongzhou intersection, less than 200 meters in front is the Sichuan intersection, but there is no Japanese army at the Sichuan intersection at all, break through the Zhongzhou intersection, the 19th Brigade and Yang Furui Battalion can go straight to the naval headquarters along the North Sichuan Road.
Gao Shenxing and Xie Gouzi collected more than 20 grenades and bundled them into two bundles, and threw them down from the rooftop at the same time, the two Japanese barricades below were suddenly finished, and more than 20 devils in the two squads were directly torn to pieces by the air wave generated by the explosion, and Xu Shijiu saw with his own eyes that the head of a ghost soldier flew up almost as high as the rooftop.
Xu Jiu took out his flare gun and fired a green flare at the sky.
The flares flew into the sky with squeaky screams, and the officers and men of Yang Furui's battalion, who were shooting at the Japanese troops on the west side of the target road, jumped up from behind the barricades and rushed forward with bayonets in hand.

Captain Shigeru Ito's Vickers armored car had just inspected the intersection of Qiujiang Road and Sichuan Road, when a herald rode a bicycle at a gallop, and the herald crashed into the armored car in a panic, causing the front wheels to twist and deform, and the person also fell to the ground.
"Yaga!" Shigeru Ito opened the window and poked his head out to curse.
The herald didn't care about his knee being scratched, and quickly turned over and got up and reported: "Captain, there is a sudden detour of the Zhina Army on the north side of the target road, and the Liyuan team guarding the Fusheng intersection has all been shattered, and the leader of the Inoue squadron asked me to report to you that if you don't send reinforcements, the Zhongzhou intersection and Sichuan intersection on the target road will also be lost." ”
"Yaga!" Ito Shigeru said angrily, "You go back and tell Inoue Jun that he must guard the Zhongzhou intersection no matter what, and he must not let the Shina army break into the North Sichuan Road." After a pause, Ito Shigeru said, "Tell him again that I have asked the headquarters for help, and the 4th Infantry Brigade will arrive soon, so please hold on." ”
"Hello!" The herald said yes and ran away.
Shigeru Ito retracted his head back into the carriage and instructed the orderlies: "Yours, call the headquarters again, the target road, Xinmin road and Qiujiang road are all in an emergency, please send reinforcements to your Excellency the commander quickly." "Ito Shigeru did not lie about the military situation, under the onslaught of the 19th Brigade and Yang Furui's battalion, his 3rd Infantry Brigade was indeed about to be unable to support it.

Japanese Navy Headquarters, South 2nd Floor War Room.
The telephone ringing in the telecommunications room next door had already been ringing, and the telephone operators who answered the phone were even yelling, otherwise they would not be able to hear the sound in the microphone at all.
From the beginning of the war in the morning to the present, in less than two hours, the positions of Zhizhi University, the Patriotic Girls' School, the Bazi Bridge, and the Japanese Tomb Mountain have been in an emergency, and the Ito Shigeru Brigade, which is on guard in the direction of the North Railway Station, has called for help twice, claiming that if the reinforcements do not rush to the rescue, the positions will collapse on the entire line.
Hondasuke's prophecy unfortunately came true, and the Chinese army really came over from the roof.
Looking at the blue arrows on the map that were thrust from several directions, Okawa Nei Chuanqi's cheeks began to twitch unconsciously, because each blue arrow represented a Chinese army, and the fierceness of the national army's offensive today was far beyond his imagination! Damn the Chinese, how did they suddenly become smarter?
Hondasuke, who was standing next to him, said: "Okawauchi-san, I said a long time ago that the imperial army is insufficient, and the defensive circle should not be expanded too much, but you don't listen, and now there is really a problem." ”
Hearing this, Dachuan Neichuan Qi was stunned, turned his head and shouted: "Order, the 1st Infantry Brigade will abandon Zhizhi University, the Patriotic Girls' School and Hongkou Park, and shrink the defense on all fronts, the 3rd Infantry Brigade will hold the Sichuan Road at all costs, and the 4th Infantry Brigade and the 4th Tank Detachment will immediately rush to the aid of the Sichuan Road, and quickly drop." ”
Honda nodded lightly when he heard this, thinking that although Okawa Neichuan is not smart, he is not stupid, he is still quite clear, Zhizhi University and Hongkou Park and other directions can be contracted, but the defenders in the direction of Sichuan Road must not shrink, as soon as this direction shrinks, the national army may complete the encirclement of the naval headquarters on all sides.
"Hello!" The orderly suddenly bowed his head and took the order.
Okawa Uchidenchi asked Honda Futsu again: "Honda-san, I don't know if it's too late to set fire now?" ”
"It's late." Hondasuke shook his head and sighed, "The fire that is enough to stop the advance of the Shina Army is not something that can be burned, it will take at least a whole day of preparation time, not to mention that now that the defense lines in all directions have been abandoned, it is pointless to set fire again, so let's hurry up and arrange the second line of defense." ”
Okawa Neichuan Qi took out a handkerchief to wipe away the cold sweat oozing from his forehead, and said in a low voice: "However, the previous defense focus of the imperial army has always been on the outermost periphery, and in addition to dozens of light and heavy machine gun nests on the second defense chain, even the barricades have not been built. ”
Honda Fu spread his hands and said lightly: "Okawauchi-san, the worst result is just to hold the naval headquarters to the death, as long as you can hold out until the army lands, it will be a victory." ”
"No, the Chinese army cannot be allowed to get close to the naval command." "Although the naval headquarters is a closed fortress and strong enough, it is impossible to block the close direct fire of the heavy artillery, and once the Chinese army completes the encirclement of the naval headquarters, they will definitely pull the heavy artillery up." ”
Hondasuke spread his hands again and said, "Then I can't help it." ”
"Okamoto-san, Okamoto-san must be able to think of a way." Okawa Uchidenchi grabbed a straw like a drowning man, and said to Honda Suke as if begging, "Honda-san, please quickly call Okamoto-san, ask him not to leave Shanghai for the time being, and ask him to return to the naval headquarters immediately, please." ”
