Chapter 090 Tank Battle
call out!
An 88mm high-explosive bomb fell from the sky!
Boom!
The Japanese attacking the left-wing position were immediately overturned in large numbers.
The three light machine gunners were knocked to the ground by the air wave, and many other Japanese who raised their guns to shoot were also killed.
A Japanese squad leader exclaimed: "Squadron leader, it looks like that tank."
Looking back, the squadron leader suddenly changed his color: "Baga! This tank has appeared again!"
While they were talking, three more high-explosive bombs were fired at them, knocking a dozen little Japanese who were lying on the ground into the air, and then fell heavily to the uneven ground, vomiting blood and shattering into pieces.
Glancing at the wounded soldier lying on the ground crying and howling, the disgraced Japanese squad leader asked anxiously: "Squadron leader, what should we do now?"
Looking furtively at the Tiger tank 300 meters away, the squadron leader roared: "Stand where you are, please ask your Excellency, the division commander, to bring in the tank troops!"
The Japanese team leader responded in a muffled voice: "Hai!"
Watching the Japanese team's retreating figure, the squadron leader shouted: "Signal Corps, order the first and second teams to stop attacking and stay put!"
At this time, Zhou Weiguo had already led the remaining soldiers to escape in the direction of the Tiger tank.
The Japanese squadron leader has experienced the power of the Tiger tank.
Infantrymen are nothing compared to Tiger tanks. Ordinary weapons are useless against Tiger tanks!
It would be tantamount to committing suicide if you continue to rush towards the Tiger tank without thinking at this time.
After capturing Nanjing's Zhonghua Gate, the Japanese squadron leader's troops had been reduced by one-third in combat, most of which were killed by Tiger tanks.
In order to avoid suffering greater losses, the Japanese squadron leader ordered the remaining soldiers to stop the attack and wait for the arrival of the tank troops.
The issue of tanks still needs to be solved by tanks.
However, the two Type 92 heavy machine guns that breathed fire snakes were still chasing the heels of Zhou Weiguo and others.
…
Nanjing Zhonghuamen Wengcheng, the Japanese flag is hung on the city gate and flutters in the wind.
Groups of 6th Division soldiers armed to the teeth passed in front of several officers.
Holding a samurai sword and looking proud, Commander Hisao Tani shouted: "Everyone, after days of fighting, despite paying a lot of price, our sixth division became the first unit to enter Nanjing City! This is our sixth division.
A great honor for the division!"
A group of junior officers gathered around the commander of the division, Hisao Tani, echoed: "The Sixth Division is victorious! Long live the Empire of Japan!"
Pressing down with both hands, the commander of Hisao Tani Division asked in a deep voice: "Has the tank that appeared near Zhonghua Gate been killed?"
A major staff officer responded: "Your Excellency, the division commander! The two battle defense guns transferred to the Yoshino Squadron have arrived in the Zhonghua Gate area! There is no battle report yet!"
After pondering for a moment, the commander of Hisao Tani's division shouted angrily: "How did Yoshino fight? Even a few remnants of China can't figure it out! Report to me as soon as you have the latest news! Have you found a large number of remnants of China resisting in the front?"
The Major Staff Officer responded: "Not yet, Yoshino Squadron is currently searching in the direction of Zhongshan Square!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a correspondent reported: "Your Excellency, the division commander, Yoshino Squadron found dozens of Chinese remnants in the Zhongshan Square area, and also found the tank. Yoshino Squadron suffered heavy losses. Captain Yoshino requested the division
Send tank troops to reinforce!"
His face suddenly darkened, and the commander of the Hisao Tani division shouted in surprise: "Nani? There are actually remnant troops in Nanjing with such a strong will to resist. Where are the two anti-tank guns?"
Shaking his head, the communications soldier responded: "Both combat anti-cannons were destroyed by that tank, and all the gunners were killed."
Hearing this, the face of Commander Tani Hisao's division became more and more gloomy.
The captain of the 47th Regiment shouted in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, it seems that this is a group of extraordinary Chinese troops! They must be cleaned up as soon as possible!"
After a slight hesitation, the commander of the Hisao Tani Division shouted: "Order! The Luer Tank Squadron will immediately move to the vicinity of China Plaza, and the 47th Regiment will move towards the Yoshino Squadron to reinforce it."
With a sudden stamp of their feet, the two Japanese officers responded in unison: "Hai!"
…
Within fifteen minutes, smoke and dust were everywhere on the plane tree-lined avenue leading to Zhongshan Square, and the sound of footsteps and tank tracks could be heard all the time.
Six Type 97 tanks took the lead and formed a column heading straight towards Zhongshan Square.
Following the Type 97 tanks were Japanese infantry, a regiment of them.
Along the way, there were many fleeing civilians and scattered wounded soldiers.
The wounded and defeated soldiers were naturally killed by the Japanese, and the common people also all were killed on the pretext that the soldiers were disguised.
Facing the extremely vicious Japanese soldiers, war is a huge disaster for ordinary people!
…
Boom! Boom!... Boom!
The Tiger tank fired 12 consecutive rounds of high-explosive bombs, which made the little Japanese on the opposite side unable to lift their heads.
Controlling the telescope and observing Zhou Weiguo running from the left wing position, Liang Shanhao shouted in a muffled voice: "Drive forward 100 meters to meet Commander Zhou."
The Tiger tank let out a muffled roar and drove towards Zhou Weiguo 150 meters away.
While driving, the Tiger tank's coaxial machine gun and vehicle-mounted machine gun also fired continuously, suppressing the firepower of the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun behind Zhou Weiguo.
…
Seven or eight remaining troops took turns covering the retreat to the right-wing position!
Seeing Liang Shanhao's tank, Zhou Weiguo, who was fighting and retreating, shouted: "Brothers, retreat quickly! Captain Liang's tank is coming to meet us."
While running, Xu Hu gasped and asked: "Captain, where did Commander Liang get this thing?"
Also running forward, Zhou Weiguo shouted: "How did I know? It's not like the tanks of the Third Reich! When I was studying armor at the Berlin Military Academy, I only saw the No. 1 and No. 2 tanks!"
Xu Hu asked: "Could it be an American tank?"
Zhou Weiguo responded: "I'm not familiar with America, how would I know! Stop talking nonsense and run away!"
Xu Hu responded: "Brothers, work harder, we still have 80 meters to run out of the Japanese machine gun coverage area!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a rain of bullets from the Type 97 tanks came from the nine o'clock direction.
Rub rub rub rub!
Rub rub rub rub!
Rub rub rub rub!
The two remnant soldiers running on the left side of Zhou Weiguo were swept to the ground.
…
Turning the periscope, Liang Shanhao shouted in a low voice: "Damn it, the crispy little devil is here to torture you again!"
He also discovered the Type 97 tank of the little devil at the first time. Lei Lei exclaimed: "There are six tanks in the group!"
Through the radio, Liang Shanhao hummed: "Why panic! Our tanks have rough skin and thick flesh, and the little devil's crispy skin can't do anything to us!"
Lei Lei shouted: "Tuanzuo, what should we do now?"
A sneer broke out from the corner of his mouth, and Liang Shanhao shouted: "What should I do? Of course I have to confront the little devil head-on. Daniel, charge forward!"
A voice came from the earphones: "Commander, I seem to find that there are a large number of infantrymen following the Japanese tanks?"
Taking control of the periscope and observing, Liang Shanhao's face showed a hint of surprise.
Sure enough, according to a rough estimate, the little devil's infantry must have two squadrons.
It seems that these little devils have been attracted by the remaining soldiers guarding Zhongshan Square.
The chances of escape for the fleeing people will be much higher!
Liang Shanhao shouted: "Stop talking nonsense and rush up to me!"
Looking at the large group of Japanese soldiers a thousand meters away, Wang Daniu exclaimed: "Tuan Zuo, are you really going to charge?"
Liang Shanhao scolded: "Damn you, if we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. Let's cripple the little devil's tank first!"
Chapter completed!
