Chapter 315 Bloody Battle at the North Gate(1/2)
Taierzhuang North Gate city wall position.
The three sharpshooters were sniping away the grenade group of the Japs.
In just three minutes, the Japanese grenades misfired one after another!
Without the threat of grenades, the heavy machine gun firepower point at the top of the city regained its firepower.
The 11th Wing's Jaap attack was once again suppressed by fire.
However, the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly. The defense at the top of the city had just improved, but the three sharpshooters suffered a big disaster!
Several explosions were heard, and a bloody hole appeared on the foreheads of the three sharpshooters at almost the same time.
Seeing the three sharpshooters lying on the ground, Battalion Commander Cao shouted urgently: "Damn it, the little devil also has sharpshooters, please pay attention to me!"
The platoon leader shouted: "Batalion Commander, if you guessed correctly, the Japs' sharpshooters should be at fourteen o'clock!"
Looking towards the fourteen o'clock direction, Battalion Commander Cao asked in a deep voice: "Are you sure?"
The platoon leader shouted: "Based on my many years of combat experience, this is absolutely correct!"
Battalion Commander Cao shouted: "Platoon commander, put your Czech light machine gun here and give him a hard sweep!"
After agreeing, a platoon leader transferred a light machine gun team over.
Following the instructions of the platoon leader, the main gunner quickly aimed and fired.
The next moment, a fiery snake bit the Japanese sniper in the fourteen o'clock direction.
Da da da!
Between the lightning and flint, the grass at the fourteen o'clock direction was filled with smoke and dust.
There was no time to defend himself, and a few Japanese snipers beat him to a bloody pulp.
One of the Japanese snipers wanted to stand up and change his sniper position.
But the enemy's running speed cannot match the speed of the Czech light machine gun.
In an instant, a long burst of fire chased the Japanese sniper and bit him.
Da da da!
In an instant, the Japanese's back was beaten into a sieve.
Suddenly raising his fist, Battalion Commander Cao shouted: "Great job!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a wave of Type 92 infantry cannons hit the city wall fortifications.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
Rumble, rumble!
A bright red fire exploded near Camp Commander Cao.
The blast of air almost knocked Camp Commander Cao to the ground.
The soldiers of the third battalion also lost dozens of people in the shelling.
With the support of Type 92 infantry artillery, the 11th Regiment launched an increasingly fierce attack towards the north gate.
The Japanese under the north gate wall kept coming and killing them.
A series of ladders are hung on the city wall.
One by one, the little devils began to climb up the city on ladders.
The soldiers of the third battalion desperately defended the crenel.
One by one, the soldiers shot at the Japanese soldiers under the ladder.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Amidst the fierce gunfire, the little Japanese who were climbing the ladder fell down one after another.
Although some of them were only slightly injured, they fell from the ten-meter-high ladder and were completely knocked into fools!
But at this moment, the Japanese commander also reacted!
A series of crooked machine guns began to fire from the crenels, covering the infantry as they climbed into the city.
Naturally, the 181st regiment did not show weakness and confronted the little devil.
Several Czech-style light machine guns fired fiercely at the Japanese's crooked light machine guns.
Da da da!
Rub rub rub rub!
For a while, the enemy and we were fighting back and forth, but the Japanese's fighting qualities were there, and the 181st Regiment's defense gradually became a little overwhelmed.
Soon, several gaps began to appear in the city wall fortifications.
With a ferocious face, the little devils kept pouring out of the gap.
Three or five soldiers rushed forward to set up defenses, but were knocked to the ground by the Japanese's bayonets.
It seems that the defense of the third battalion is in danger of collapse.
Raising his hand, he shot down a Japanese soldier who was rushing through the gap. Battalion Commander Cao shouted at the top of his voice: "First platoon leader! Quick, bring a few soldiers to reinforce the second platoon and block the gap for me!"
The platoon leader shouted in response: "Yes!"
At the next moment, soldiers from the two squads, led by the platoon leader, charged at the Japs at the gap and launched a counterattack.
Close combat and hand-to-hand combat naturally become the main theme.
The enemy and we fought desperately in the gap.
After several rounds, a long platoon of warriors gradually became at a disadvantage.
Soldiers were constantly picked to death by Japanese soldiers.
The platoon leader himself received several bayonet blows.
Three Japs veterans surrounded a long row and attacked fiercely.
While parrying with all hands and feet, the long platoon retreated.
Suddenly, a Japs veteran kicked the long platoon of Xia San Road hard.
A platoon leader was kicked to the ground, and the medium-sized rifle in his hand was thrown far away.
Staring at the unarmed platoon leader, the three Japanese soldiers rushed forward with their Type 38 rifles to strike.
At this critical moment, Battalion Commander Cao appeared out of nowhere and attacked these three Japanese soldiers!
Bang bang bang!
With a long point shot, the three Japanese soldiers were beaten into a hornet's nest.
After replacing another magazine, Battalion Commander Cao squatted beside the platoon leader.
After another fierce sweep at the Japanese soldiers in the gap, Battalion Commander Cao shouted: "First Platoon Commander, how are you?"
Picking up a medium-grade rifle again, the platoon leader shouted: "Batalion Commander, don't worry, I can still shoot!"
After kicking the platoon leader, Camp Commander Cao shouted: "Be careful!"
The next moment, a Japanese soldier who was about to sneak attack a platoon leader from behind was knocked to the ground.
Casting a grateful look at Battalion Commander Cao, the platoon leader returned to the battle with his medium-sized rifles in hand!
At this time, there were more and more Japanese in the gap!
The soldiers of the entire third battalion were completely locked in a close-quarters battle with the Japs.
Battalion Commander Cao held a Dezao 20-ring point kill in one hand and a bayonet in the other hand to kill.
Grabbing the ancestral samurai sword, a Japanese second lieutenant struck directly at Camp Commander Cao.
An inch long, an inch strong.
Battalion Commander Cao's bayonet is much shorter than the Japanese Second Lieutenant's ancestral samurai sword.
When he saw the Japanese second lieutenant coming towards him, Battalion Commander Cao could only retreat subconsciously.
Suddenly raising the muzzle of his gun, Battalion Commander Cao fired two shots at the Japanese Second Lieutenant's kneecaps.
Bang! Bang!
The Japanese second lieutenant knelt down in front of Camp Commander Cao, but still held the samurai sword in his hand.
Battalion Commander Cao shot the Japanese second lieutenant in the wrist.
Bang!
The katana is released.
With a sudden lunge, Battalion Commander Cao slit the Japanese Second Lieutenant's throat with his bayonet.
Holding his neck with blood spurting out, the Japanese second lieutenant lay on the ground.
The whole set of fighting moves was smooth and flowing, without any trace of mud or water.
