Therefore, Wei Dayong did not participate in the charge at first. Wattle

Instead, after waiting for the assault team to rush into the city, they took the troops of the second echelon and entered the city to fight street battles with the devils.

After all, the order of the regimental party committee did not allow battalion commanders to participate in white-knuckle battles and charges.

But it didn't say that battalion-level commanders were not allowed to engage in street fighting.

If the regiment commander and political commissar criticized him after the war, then he said that he learned from the regiment commander, and the regiment commander sometimes secretly participated in white-knuckle battles.

In the field of vision of the telescope, Wei Dayong saw nearly 600 soldiers from three companies of the first echelon, rushing towards the city wall.

Wei Dayong's combat style is a bit similar to his character, he has always been not tentative to attack, and he is the main attack from the beginning.

Of course, it's definitely not a brainless main attack. Wattle

In this case, 31 tank guns opened a gap for the attacking troops.

And there are only about 1,000 devils in the city, and these 1,000 devils have to defend the city walls on all sides, and there are more than 300 devils who can defend the north city gate and fight street battles.

The shelling just now, such a big formation, the devils on the city wall have already suffered heavy casualties.

As for a small number of puppet troops?

Wei Dayong never took the puppet army in his eyes at all.

Datong City originally had a moat, but due to disrepair, the moat had long since dried up.

In the course of the infantry charge, in order to be injured by mistake. Wattle

Tank guns, 75mm mountain guns, 105 howitzers and 150 howitzers all stopped firing.

However, the mortar batteries of the battalions of the new regiment continued to shell to provide artillery cover for the infantry.

Due to the abundance of shells, the new regiment also fed a lot of sharpshooters, almost anywhere, as long as it was within the firing range, 2 shells would definitely hit the target.

Although the tank guns and mortars just now have carried out a wave of killing and wounding of the devils on the city wall.

But it's also impossible to kill all the devils on the city walls.

In the process of the infantry of the Eighth Route Army, there were still some devils on the city wall, setting up machine guns and shooting at the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army.

The devil shot condescendingly, and almost all the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were exposed to machine gun fire. Wattle

So.

At this time, once the artillery fire stops, the machine gunners of the devil can recklessly harvest the lives of the new group of soldiers.

At the same time, six 20-mm machine guns and M2 heavy machine guns of the artillery company of the 2nd Battalion of the division were also erected to cover the attack of the fighters with firepower.

Bullets whizzed and flew wildly, and machine gunners on both sides exchanged fire, causing smoke and dust to spread.

Under the targeted elimination of the sharpshooters and the fire of the machine guns, the exposed machine-gun fire points set up by the devils on the city wall were cleared one by one.

Although there are also mortar and infantry guns of devils in the city shooting outside the city, the density of firepower is not at the same level as the artillery fire of the new regiment.

The stormtroopers quickly rushed to the gap in the wall. Wattle

Immediately the ladder was quickly erected, and the soldier with a submachine gun on his chest took the lead in stepping on the ladder and rushed up to the gap.

A fighter with a submachine gun quickly climbed the ladder up the gap, but the fighter did not rush forward.

Instead, he bowed down on the ladder and waited for the ladder next to him to be erected, and the two ladders on the left and right were quickly erected, and two fighters armed with submachine guns came to a position of almost the same height.

The soldier took a wooden stick from the hands of his comrades below, then took off the steel helmet on top of his head, nodded to his comrades on the left and right, and then slowly lifted the steel helmet upwards with the wooden stick.

As the fighters expected.

As soon as the helmet burst through the gap, a shuttle of machine gun bullets came towards the helmet.

Moreover, the fighters also quickly judged that this was a crooked-handled light machine gun, and in addition to a crooked-handled light machine gun, there were about four or five three-eight large covers, and the distance was about 50 meters. Wattle

This is all the experience of the veterans of the new regiment who have attacked the city many times and summed up with their blood and lives.

When the cannon blasted out of the gap in the city wall, the soldiers entered through the gap, and there must be a machine gun of the devil behind the gap, either a Type 92 heavy machine gun or a crooked handle.

The devil's machine-gun fire and rifle fire poured down on the steel helmet, sending it flying out.

If it weren't for the experience summed up by the veteran, it would have been this soldier who fell off the ladder just now.

It's too late, it's too soon.

The fighters on the left and right, who also had M3 submachine guns on their chests, suddenly got up and shot at the devil with their submachine guns.

"Da da da ......"

The two submachine guns fired at the same time, and the dense submachine gun fire poured towards the devil.

The devils who were shooting from behind the sandbags fell down several times at once.

The rest of the devils hurriedly bent down to dodge the oncoming submachine gun bullets.

The fighters on the left and right sides finished a shuttle, and when they changed ammunition, the devil got up from behind the sandbags and prepared to counterattack.

But by this time, the soldier in the middle had already set up the submachine gun in his hand.

"Dada......da

Dense bullets were fired at once. Wattle

Two more devils fell in a pool of blood behind the sandbag position.

"Up!"

Seeing that the machine-gun fire points of the positions built up by the devil's sandbags were suppressed, the fighters on the left and right sides changed their magazines and jumped into the city.

Subsequently.

From the ladder, more and more soldiers of the 2nd Division poured into the city.

The fighters cooperated with each other, and just took out the devil machine gun position behind the gap.

A few shells flew from inside the city and exploded, and the soldiers hurried to hide. Wattle

However, the explosion did not sound, but a tom-tom sound.

"It's a gas bomb, put on a gas mask!"

"Move fast!"

A veteran squad leader with rich combat experience instantly sensed that something was wrong, and while shouting loudly, he quickly took off the gas mask from his waist and put it on.

"Squad leader!"

"My gas mask is leaking!"

One of the fighters shouted in horror. Wattle

"Wear mine!" The veteran squad leader forcibly shoved the gas mask into the soldier's hand.

Looking left and right, the poison gas has dispersed, and there is a steady stream of poison gas bombs being hit here.

As the squad leader of the sharp knife squad, his reaction was also extremely fast, after putting on the gas mask on the soldier, the veteran squad leader quickly crawled to the side of a sacrificial soldier, took off the gas mask of the sacrificial soldier, and then put it on his face.

Only then did he carry an M1 semi-automatic rifle and shouted: "Keep attacking!" ”

Behind the Sharp Knife Squad, a company of fighters wearing gas masks poured into the city.

At the same time, several Leopard tanks and Xiafei tanks slowly drove into the city to cooperate with the street fighting of the second battalion of the division.

The reason why the tanks entered the city after the infantry had entered. Wattle

Instead of letting the tank in front, it was because the infantry had to clean up the remnants of the devils on the city wall first, otherwise the devils on the city wall would throw explosives down, and the tankmen in the tank would not be able to carry it.

There are a total of about 1,000 devils, and half of them will be reimbursed on the city wall.

The devils of the 3rd Brigade in Datong City actually have little experience in street fighting.

The devils did not fight with the new group house by house, but set up some positions with sandbags on the streets.

Then, on the second floor of the houses on both sides of the position, some machine gunners and riflemen were ambushed, wanting to wait until the soldiers of the new regiment attacked, and the soldiers on the tall buildings on the left and right opened the windows and fired downward.

In order to achieve the goal of killing and injuring a large number of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army.

But what kind of troops is the new regiment? Wattle

The new regiment has fought not ten street battles, but five, six, seventy, or eight times.

The experience of street fighting can be said to be very rich.

Among the daily training subjects, street fighting training is also a subject with a large proportion of training for soldiers.

What's more, in this street battle, the second battalion of the division also had tanks to help.

In the northern city of Datong, 2 tanks on each street attacked forward, and behind the tanks, followed by soldiers of the new 2nd Regiment with rifles.

Wei Dayong was armed with an M1 semi-automatic rifle and followed behind a Leopard tank.

He rested the rifle resting on his shoulder, put his fingers on the trigger, and looked warily at the houses on either side. Wattle

In this case, street fighting is left to the tank, and the infantry's job is to protect the tank.

With a muffled tom, a 75-mm high-explosive shell instantly hit the sandbag position of the devil on the opposite side.

A Type 92 heavy machine gun and 3 devil machine gunners were blown into the sky in an instant.

The Leopard tank continued to move forward.

Just as the Leopard tank came to the downstairs of a hotel, suddenly the left window was pushed open, and a devil appeared in the window with a Molotov cocktail.

Suddenly.

Wei Dayong's eyes were sharp, and he turned around and shot at the devil. Wattle

There was a crisp bang, and the shot exploded the Molotov cocktail in the devil's hand and the devil's palm.

The gasoline in the bottle was ignited instantly, and the devil was ignited at once, letting out a miserable Japanese scream.

Then, more windows were pushed open, and first several melon grenades were thrown, and then the barrels of the devil's guns were sticking out.

Although the devil was condescending, the new group of fighters followed behind the tank, without worrying about the front, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed at the windows on both sides at all times.

At the moment when the barrel of the devil's gun was stretched out, the fighters of the new regiment of the 2nd Division on the street opened fire almost synchronously.

The firepower of the new regiment is not comparable to the firepower of the devils of the 3rd brigade.

It didn't take long for the second floor to be silent. Wattle

The soldiers of the 2nd Division kicked open the door and rushed into the hotel, ready to clear the remnants of the enemy.

But the next moment, there was a "boom" explosion in the hotel, and several soldiers who had just rushed in fell in a pool of blood.

The devil hung a treacherous thunderbolt on the door.

However, this is all a small episode, and the strength of the 3rd Brigade is too different from the new regiment after all.

In the face of absolute strength, any intrigue is in vain.

Under the spearhead charge of the tanks, the fighters of the 2nd Division were almost invincible, occupying three streets in a row.

The 2nd Division and tanks soon attacked the headquarters of the 3rd Brigade of the Japanese Army. Wattle

It was originally a school, but after the Japanese occupied it, it was taken as a headquarters, and the surrounding defenses were strengthened.

Seeing this, Wei Dayong couldn't help but be slightly happy.

Judging by the gunshots, the nearest battalion was at least two blocks away from the devil's headquarters.

"This work, I have won the second battalion of the division!"

"Mortars, tank guns to Lao Tzu!"

With Wei Dayong's order, 6 tanks drove to the front, and the gunner slowly turned the barrel and pointed at the command of the devil.

Mortars were also quickly erected. Wattle

Behind the tank, the fighters, including the battalion commander Wei Dayong, carried their guns behind their backs and covered their ears with their hands.
