Chapter 950: Shotgun Replacement (Third Update!) )
With the help of the cover of houses and ruins on both sides of the street, the guard company following Jin Kai barely touched the position of less than fifty meters away from the devil on the street.
"The machine gunner is in front, the submachine gunner is close behind, and the rifleman is the last, after rushing out, first kill the devil artillery, heavy machine gunner, and then attack the devil infantry next to the protected tank!" Jin Kai commanded in a low voice.
Seeing that several platoon commanders nodded in agreement, Jin Kai directly gave the order for an assault.
"Comrades...... Rush out and start assaulting ......"
"Da Da Da ......"
A dense burst of gunfire suddenly sounded behind him, and all the devils did not expect it.
Five light machine guns and six submachine guns smashed the dozen devils who walked in the last few into a sieve on the spot. The rest of the devils subconsciously fell to the ground, and then they planned to turn around and fight back.
"Rush over and kill them...... "Jin Kai ordered loudly as he pulled the trigger of the submachine gun in his hand and sprayed the bullet forward.
"The rifleman throws a grenade and blows up the little devil lying on the ground......"
"Dada...... Boom, boom, boom......, boom "Boom Boom Boom" and explosions, dozens of devil gunners and machine gunners were quickly killed.
The devil infantry who surrounded the tank in front reacted completely, lying on the ground, hiding around the tank, or directly into the ruins on both sides of the street, raising their guns to counterattack.
......The tanks parked on the street also quickly turned, and the heavy machine guns on the vehicles opened fire on the guard company!
"Covert ......," Jin Kai ordered decisively.
The order to retreat was timely, but still several fighters were shot and fell on the street.
"Go through the wall, get close to the remaining devils, and kill them with grenades......" the heartbroken Jin Kai decisively ordered.
Then he added: "The newly formed main battalion on the opposite side must also start to act, and we will strive to attack inside and outside, and kill the remaining devils within half an hour." ”
"Bang bang bang...... Boom ......"
A burst of gunfire rang out from the east, and two grenades exploded from the west......
The devils who were hiding around the tank, like headless flies, had no idea where these attacks were coming from, and could only shoot blindly around.
Seeing that soldiers were constantly being killed in the vicinity, there were fewer and fewer of his subordinates who could respond. The squadron leader led by the devil was scared and ordered decisively.
"We are surrounded by dirt and are not opponents at all...... Chariot cover, retreat immediately, withdraw from the county seat! ”
"Boom ......"
Relying on their thick-skinned tanks, they were the first to move and began to retreat with a roar.
More than forty devils quickly rushed out of their hiding places and retreated back after the tank!
"All ......"
Suddenly, an even more muffled series of machine-gun fire rang out not far away, and then the retreating tanks stopped and lost their motion.
"It was the air defense battalion that struck, comrades, the devil tank has already been killed...... Pounce on it and kill the rest of the little devils! Jin Kai made a decisive decision.
Outside Xiangfen, Lieutenant General Ito and Chief of Staff were both confident in the street fighting inside the city, and every exchange of fire was good news for them.
Jin Kai's sudden attack made the intermittent gunfire in the city suddenly become dense.
The confident expression on Lieutenant General Ito's face suddenly disappeared.
With the attacking troops completely in control of the situation in the city, it was impossible for such a dense burst of gunfire to suddenly sound, and dozens or hundreds of shells exploded together with a violent explosion.
And the sound of gunfire and explosions happened, and there was only one situation, and the situation in the city was out of control.
"Division commander, a large number of elites of the Eighth Route Army suddenly appeared behind our four squadrons, and the troops were being flanked by the Eighth Route Army in front and rear, and suffered heavy losses~" A second lieutenant rushed out of the county town with gunpowder smoke on his face and reported.
As soon as he finished speaking, the combat staff officer rushed over.
"Sir, we have lost contact with the 1st Squadron...... The gunfire in the direction of the 1st squadron seems to have stopped......"
In less than half an hour, the gunfire in all four directions stopped, and more than a dozen soldiers rushed out of the city gate one after another, all of them in a panic.
"It's over, the four infantry squadrons we entered the city are finished, and four tanks have also been destroyed......" the chief of staff reported with a look of shock on his face.
Lieutenant General Ito did not speak with a calm face, and after hesitating for nearly half a minute, he made a decisive decision: "I didn't expect that the combat effectiveness of the new regiment would be so strong. In the case of resisting our attack, we can kill more than 1,000 of our imperial troops in half a day, and the eight grid of Yalu~"
"It's getting dark, and the Eighth Route Army in the city definitely wants us to continue to attack them, and then slowly consume us with night battles and street battles~ We must not let their tricks succeed!"
"Command...... All the troops stopped attacking and blockaded the entire Xiangfen City, I wanted to trap the Eighth Route Army in the city, and after dawn tomorrow, I would send bombers and heavy artillery to blow up Xiangfen City into ruins and kill them all~"
"All other troops should strengthen their vigilance to prevent the Eighth Route Army from attacking ...... at night"
The counterattack of the assault battalion caught Lieutenant General Ito by surprise and gave him a new understanding of the new regiment.
In Xiangfen City, the commanders of the three newly organized main battalions were very excited, and a total of four reinforced infantry squadrons came into the county seat, with nearly 600 rifles alone.
Excluding those that were blown up on the battlefield, there were still more than 400 of them that ended up in the hands of the three newly organized main battalions.
What's more, they also found 29 light machine guns, 9 heavy machine guns, 12 mortars, and 8 infantry guns intact in the city.
With so many light and heavy weapons to supplement the troops, the three newly formed main battalions can definitely be called shotguns for artillery.
Although three battalions suffered more than 600 casualties in the battle, each of the newly formed main battalions lost one company of strength. However, after replenishing so many weapons and ammunition, the combat effectiveness of the three newly organized main battalions has increased instead of decreasing.
Li Wen, the captain of the direct team, was also very excited.
"Camp Commander Jin, we will definitely surprise the devil when we break through in a while...... Guess what I just found in the city? ”
Something that can catch Li Wen's attention must be a good thing, Jin Kai also showed an expectant expression on his face, staring at Li Wen waiting for his next step.
"Tank ......" didn't let him in and waited too long, and these two words popped out of Li Wen's mouth.
Jin Kai was stunned for a moment, and then his face was enveloped by a huge surprise.
"Captain Lee...... You've captured the devil's tank...... If there are tanks rushing ahead, even if there is an infantry brigade blocking the city gate, we can easily break through! ”
"Two tanks in total!" Li Wen replied with a smile.
"Although there are several bullet holes in the side and back of the tank, it can still move, and the on-board machine gun can still fire. I'm going to use it when I break out later! ”
