Outside Xining City, there were flames and huge explosions everywhere. The bunkers and fortifications hurriedly built by the Ma Jiajun flew into the sky with loud noises.
The angry projectiles wreaked havoc outside Xining City, and the bunkers made of blue bricks and plaster flew into the sky like tissue paper. Especially the 203-caliber grenade, one shot dropped two
The civil structure bunkers within ten meters are not even affected by shock waves.
"Team leader, tell me what you want us to do." This is smarter.
Leader Du Ban looked around carefully and said: "Everyone, listen to me. If there is an attack from over there in a while, you can raise the muzzle of your gun higher. When they come over, we will surrender to them.
Everyone, be smart and don't let Lian Zuo see the signs, understand?"
"Well, squad leader, I listen to you." Several soldiers looked at the squad leader and nodded vigorously.
"Yes, anyway, I have never wanted to live like this for a long time, so I fled there as soon as possible. I heard that the food there is good and the clothes are warm, which is much better than here."
At this moment, a "swish" sound came from the sky.
With a "boom", a mortar shell landed nearby, hitting three soldiers who were setting up a machine gun. After the explosion, the three soldiers fell into a pool of blood, and the Maxim machine gun was also knocked over.
land.
"He and the others are coming up," a soldier pointed in front and shouted in horror.
There was a rumbling sound in the distance, and steel behemoths drove over, with their black muzzles pointing straight ahead.
When the tank came over, the militia soldiers who had never seen a tank completely collapsed. Some of them lay motionless on the ground, and some turned around and ran back despite the scoldings of the officers around them.
"Bang, bang, bang." The captain of Du Ban's company took the money and fired three shots into the sky. He shouted with a livid face: "You bastards, no one of you is allowed to run away. If anyone runs away again, I'll do it."
Even if I beat him to death, bring him to my position."
Under the threat of the officers' pistols, the soldiers had no choice but to return to the dilapidated position and lie down, waiting for the nightmare to come.
Chahar's ground attack finally began, led by Wu Jilong's Second Armored Division.
The city wall of Xining City is about ten miles long, and the hundreds of tanks of the Second Armored Division are like a wide net, clearly bullying the Ma Jiajun's lack of anti-armor firepower, so they swaggered out in a long snake formation.
Full bloom.
As the tanks approached, many militia soldiers collapsed. To them, such invulnerable steel monsters were demons from hell and a punishment from Allah. As the tanks approached closer and closer, more and more soldiers
They all fled their positions, and even though several were shot dead by officers, they could not stop the soldiers from fleeing.
"Squad leader, let's run too," a soldier secretly said to Squad Leader Du.
"We have to wait for them to come over. We are revolting on the battlefield. Do you know that you guys should hide with me quickly?" Following the command of Squad Leader Du, more than a dozen soldiers went to hide in a relatively hidden trench.
Du Jingtao led his company and rushed towards the city gate. Several machine gun positions they encountered on the way were easily solved by them using machine guns accompanied by tank guns.
Ren Ran led his first battalion and followed Du Jingtao. They were killed by the tanks in front of them without even firing a few shots along the way. This made Liu Jun very unhappy and led a platoon of soldiers to search around.
"Don't move!" Suddenly a soldier shouted from nearby. Liu Jun saw that it was several militia soldiers hiding in an abandoned trench who had been discovered.
"Don't shoot, don't shoot, we surrender, no, we are an uprising on the battlefield," a soldier who was obviously the leader said while raising his hands.
"Sir, we can lead the way with you. You must enter the city. We are familiar with the city. We know where there are bunkers and machine gun fortifications." The soldier was eager to prove his worth and hurriedly promoted to Liu Jun.
Own.
"What's going on? A lot of people are staying here and don't have to work." At this time, Ren Ran came over.
"Barracks, the soldiers from these famous regiments said they can lead us. Do you think you can give it a try? After all, we will need them when we enter the city later." Liu Jun walked to Ren Ran's side and whispered.
"Well, you can take two with you and send the rest to the regimental headquarters. Maybe the regimental seats will be useful." Ren Ran thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.
The outer terrain of Xining City was flat, suitable for the attack of armored troops. Under the fierce offensive of Wu Jilong's Second Armored Division, the three lines of defense held out for less than two hours before completely falling into the hands of the Thirty-seventh Army.
At this point, the periphery of Xining City has completely fallen into the hands of the Thirty-seventh Group Army. Jiang Baili, who was watching the battle outside, immediately ordered his troops to launch a full-scale attack. More than 40,000 people from the 10th, 11th, and 12th Infantry Divisions all came out.
Entered Xining City.
But after entering Xining City, they discovered that the resistance inside Xining City was much more intense than outside the city. The people stationed here were more than 10,000 soldiers from the 100th Cavalry Division who had been commanded by Ma Bufang personally for many years and who followed Ma Bufang wholeheartedly.
, although they did not have war horses, their ferocious energy surprised several generals who originally despised them. Although their weapons were not very advanced, they used makeshift bunkers or took time to shoot cold shots in private houses.
However, his tactics brought heavy casualties to several troops entering the city.
When he heard the news from the city that the casualties of the siege troops had increased greatly, Jiang Baili, who was originally worried that the tanks entering the city would injure innocent people, immediately ordered: "When the tanks are sent up, I must capture Ma Bufang."
