While the bombardment continued, Zhang Chu looked around.
He needs to find a commanding height to check and balance the entire Taiyuan City.
In combat, the commanding heights are very important.
Only by controlling the commanding heights can you control the entire battlefield.
However, looking around, I can't see the highest one.
It may be due to environmental restrictions.
"Jiang Yongwei!"
"arrive!"
"Do you know where the highest place is in Taiyuan City?"
"have no idea."
Jiang Yongwei shook his head.
He has never been to Taiyuan City before. This is his first time here and he was arrested.
He was completely blind to his surroundings.
"And you?"
Zhang Chu turned around and asked the Ninth Master again.
The bandits were blocked by the Japanese invaders and had no way to leave for the time being. They had no choice but to stay close to the Eighth Route.
The only way to survive is to huddle together for warmth.
There are hundreds of people on the Eighth Route Army. Even if they encounter Japanese invaders, they can still stop them.
What?
Going out of town now?
dream!
The Japanese invaders had already sealed off the entire city.
Even if you can fly, you can't escape. Give up on this idea as soon as possible.
What's more, even if you are lucky enough to escape from the city, there are still Japanese invaders outside the city. The Japanese invaders outside the city are not rookies like the military police. They are all field troops!
If you encounter it, you will die.
"You can go to the Wanguo Hotel."
"where?"
"The Wanguo Hotel has eight floors and an elevator. It is the tallest building in the city."
"oh?"
Zhang Chu's mind moved.
Is there actually a place like this in Taiyuan?
Is there an elevator?
This thing is definitely a rarity!
Although, in foreign countries, in Shanghai, elevators are already common. But in Taiyuan...
good!
Just go check it out!
Search on the recovery radar.
turn up.
The distance is a bit far.
We need to cross five streets. No wonder we didn’t see it.
fine.
Just five streets...
Immediately explain the situation to Jiang Yongwei.
Of course Jiang Yongwei had no objection. He immediately arranged for the troops to set off.
Attack all the way forward.
From time to time, we encountered sporadic Japanese invaders and were killed on the spot.
It's all the work of the sniper.
Sniper rifles were used to kill people from a long distance. Many Japanese invaders did not react.
Go smoothly.
Suddenly we encountered a group of puppet troops. There was about a company.
No one knows where this group of puppet soldiers came from. Zhang Chu didn't notice it either. But it doesn't matter. If you encounter them, you will encounter them.
"Da da da!"
"Da da da!"
One shot solved most of them.
There were more than thirty puppet soldiers left lying on the ground, kowtowing desperately and begging for mercy.
"Da da da!"
"Da da da!"
As a result, there was a random shooting...
All the puppet soldiers were killed. No one was left alive.
Jiang Yongwei and the others were all from the Shaanxi Army, and they hated the puppet troops extremely. They were not willing to take prisoners!
Zhang Chu:......
sweat……
These guys!
The shot was too heavy.
Our Eighth Route Army has three major disciplines and eight points of attention!
Think about it later...
Forget it. We'll wait until the political workers arrive.
Now, the battle is urgent.
In fact, from another perspective, if the Shaanxi army fell into the hands of the puppet army, there would definitely be no way to survive.
War is so cruel.
keep going.
Finally we met the Japanese invaders.
This is the main force of the Japanese garrison that has been reinforced. It has light machine guns and grenade launchers.
The two sides engaged in fierce fighting.
The number of Japanese invaders was very large. There were more than a thousand people. It was judged that they were a complete brigade.
Both sides were a little surprised.
Zhang Chu did not expect to encounter the Japanese field brigade here.
The Japanese invaders did not expect that what they encountered would actually be the Eighth Route Army! The Eighth Route Army was wearing military uniforms! It was an organized force!
Report it immediately.
"Nani?"
"Regular troops on Tubal Road?"
"A few hundred people?"
Saburo Saito was in disbelief after hearing the news.
Damn it!
Have all the Tubal regular troops entered the city?
How could something so ridiculous happen?
Deadly!
No wonder the headquarters came under bombardment.
It turned out that they encountered the regular army from Tubal Road! They actually entered the city in an organized manner!
Who let them in?
There were hundreds of people on Tuba Road! How did they get into the city? And they carried so many weapons and ammunition!
It feels like everything is wrong.
However, now is not the time to hold people accountable.
These are no longer important.
Now, the most important thing is to eliminate them quickly.
Seeing Yoshio Shinozuka's listlessness and numbness, Saburo Saito had no choice but to take the lead himself.
Deploy troops and condemn the generals, and surround them from all sides.
At the same time, all Japanese troops in the suburbs of Taiyuan were ordered to enter a state of combat readiness.
Saito Saburo was worried that this was Tubal Road's internal and external plan. By causing trouble in the city, it would attract the attention of the Japanese army, and then the Tubal Road on the outside would attack the city!
Tubalu is cunning.
Must be on guard...
A large group of Japanese invaders were dispatched...
Another brigade of Japanese invaders was dispatched...
Another brigade...
After arranging three brigades in a row, Saburo Saito felt a little relieved.
There was already a garrison brigade fighting with Tubal Road. With the three reinforcements, there were four brigade.
There are four brigades chasing and intercepting them, and they should be able to deal with Tubal Road.
However……
There is always a problem.
What exactly does Tubalu want to do?
Where is their attack direction?
headquarters?
Ammunition Depot?
It doesn't feel like it.
What are you going to do on Tubal Road towards Wanguo Hotel?
"Da da da……"
"Boom boom boom..."
Over there, a fierce battle is raging.
The Japanese invaders brigade and the Eighth Route Army were fighting inextricably.
Although the Japanese invaders had a large group, they did not carry infantry artillery or even mortars.
Who could have imagined that we would encounter so many bad guys!
It's too late to regret.
Zhang Chu took the opportunity to blast the opponent with mortars and at the same time crushed him with a heavy machine gun.
"idiot!"
The Japanese invaders really couldn't bear it.
In a short time, half of the Japanese army was lost and they had to retreat.
"kill!"
"kill!"
Jiang Yongwei led the charge all the way.
The Japanese invaders were beaten and retreated repeatedly.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Twenty sharpshooters took the opportunity to engage in cold shooting.
One shot at a time.
One shot at a time.
It caused huge casualties to the Japanese invaders.
Jiang Yongwei alone killed at least fifteen Japanese invaders. His record was quite brilliant.
Fighting all the way.
Successfully arrived outside the Wanguo Hotel.
Sure enough, the Wanguo Hotel is an eight-story building. It is quite large. It covers an area of tens of thousands of square meters.
There are no other buildings around, so it is relatively empty.
Standing on the roof of the building, you can indeed effectively monitor the surrounding area. You can even arrange mortars on the roof of the building.
The recoil of the mortar is not very strong. It is no problem to fire on the roof of the building.
Stand high and see far. Hit wherever you want.
"Da da da!"
"Da da da!"
Gunshots were heard from ahead.
But it was the Japanese invaders inside the Wanguo Hotel who were opening fire.
There are no Japanese soldiers here. But there are many other Japanese. Many Japanese carry weapons.
Of course, they were no match for the Eighth Route Army.
"superior!"
"superior!"
Everyone swarmed in and quickly occupied the first floor of the hotel. All the doors and windows were sealed.
The people inside ran away in fear. As a result, they were beaten to death one after another.
Of course it was not the Eighth Route Army who fired the shots, but the Japanese invaders who came after them.
They are very cruel and cruel.
Not only opened fire on the Eighth Route Army, but also opened fire on others.
"return!"
"return!"
Zhang Chu ordered his troops to cover the withdrawal of others.
Most of them were hotel employees, both men and women. They hurriedly retreated back.
"Kill Chirp!"
"Kill Chirp!"
A small group of Japanese invaders tried to rush up, trying to fish in troubled waters.
result……
"Da da da!"
"Da da da!"
The light machine guns and submachine guns that were waiting in full swing shot them all to death on the street.
Just kidding!
Can you rush up during the chaos?
Do you think the guy in our hands is just a living wage? How many come will die!
"Don't panic, everyone!"
"I guarantee the safety of each of you!"
"Everyone find a place to hide! Prevent being hit by stray bullets!"
“Chef, keep cooking!”
Zhang Chu shouted loudly.
With so many people occupying the Wanguo Hotel, eating is a big problem.
He can request airdrops of flour and rice, but they need to be processed by people. The professional equipment in the hotel kitchen still needs professional people to do it.
It was Grandma Liu's first time to see such a beautiful place when all the soldiers entered the Grand View Garden.
Of course, these are not the focus.
The key point is to get to the roof immediately.
The elevator can still be used, but it can't accommodate many people. Most people still have to take the stairs.
He ran to the roof angrily.
Sure enough, you can see all the mountains and small ones at a glance.
All buildings within a radius of several kilometers are under the control of the rooftop of the Wanguo Hotel.
"That's the Japanese headquarters over there..."
"That's the Japanese military police over there..."
"Over there is the Japanese field hospital..."
Master Jiu was at the side giving instructions.
He is still very familiar with Taiyuan City and knows a lot about it.
Zhang Chu immediately ordered the artillery to be set up.
Then launch.
The target is the headquarters of the Japanese First Army. Continue to bombard Yoshio Shinozuka.
"boom!"
"boom!"
Cannonballs fall.
You can clearly see the impact point.
That's easy.
As long as you can see the point of impact, you can easily correct it.
"Bang bang bang..."
"Bang bang bang..."
More shells were fired.
Artillery shells continued to fall in the middle of the Japanese headquarters.
The Japanese headquarters suddenly turned into a sea of fire.
"left!"
Suddenly someone shouted.
Zhang Chu turned around and saw that a large group of Japanese invaders were coming from the street in the distance.
However, reinforcements from the Japanese invaders continued to arrive.
"Heavy machine gun!"
"Heavy machine gun!"
Zhang Chu shouted immediately.
Soon, a heavy machine gun was moved to the roof.
Set up on the edge of the roof.
Load the ammunition belt and immediately fire at the Japanese invaders in the distance.
"Tu tu tu tu..."
"Tu tu tu tu..."
Brutal bullets shot past.
The Japanese invaders on the street suddenly collapsed.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Another sniper rifle opened fire.
But the attack was not in this direction, but on the Japanese invaders on the other side.
Shooting from a high position. Visibility is very good.
Every move of the Japanese invaders was within the scope of their surveillance.
Unless the Japanese invaders brought up field artillery.
However, if the Japanese field artillery appears, the telescope can also detect it.
In short, you can stick to it for a while, but not for a long time.
Mission accomplished, we still have to break through.
How to break out?
Of course, we need to find more people and arm more people.
As long as there are two to three thousand men in hand, breaking out of the encirclement will not be a problem at all. In turn, there will be no difficulty in fighting the Japanese invaders for Taiyuan City.
