At this time, the garrison commander was lying in the conference room to rest after a night of hard work.
"Commander, it's not good, there are communist activities at the south gate and the gate has been blocked." The chief of staff hurried in.
"What, where did the Communist troops come from?" The division commander suddenly stood up.
"Division Commander, it's not good, the east gate is surrounded by communist troops." The communications staff officer ran in.
…
The division commander suddenly sat on the ground, looked at the generals with dark eyes in front of him and shouted: "What are you still doing? Quickly send troops to defend the city, the south gate of the first regiment, the east gate of the second regiment, the north gate of the third regiment, and the west gate of the fourth regiment.
, the remaining two regiments serve as reserve teams. Hurry!"
Soon, a regiment leader led nearly two thousand of his men onto the city wall and assigned tasks.
"Commander, commander, look." The chief of staff hurriedly pulled the commander over and pointed to a hillside two miles away from the city gate.
"Oh my god, there are so many mountain artillery, please report to the division commander quickly." The regiment commander roared.
"Woooooooooooo..." Suddenly I heard the whistling sound of artillery shells. "Lie down, hide...boom, boom, boom..." Ten mountain cannons roared together. The shells accurately landed on the city wall and exploded.
There was a rain of blood. At the same time, the gate tower on the city wall collapsed with the explosion of the first round of shells.
After dodging a round of artillery fire, the commander of a regiment took advantage of the gap and immediately hid behind the city wall to avoid the attack of artillery fire. At this time, blood rain continued to rise on the city wall, one after another and another. "The Communist Army
When did there be such fierce artillery fire? Hurry, run and report to the division commander for reinforcements, reinforcements." Looking at the bombed scene, the regiment commander said nervously.
At the same time, the east and west city gates also started shelling, but they were all mortars. Even so, the intensive artillery fire scared the two regiment commanders and quickly asked the division commander for reinforcements.
"What, the three gates in the east, west and south were attacked by artillery fire at the same time, causing heavy losses. How is it possible? How is it possible?" The division commander said to himself in disbelief after hearing the shocking news.
"Teacher, teacher..." The teacher finally woke up.
"Quick, send a report to Commander-in-Chief Xue, saying that Changde is being attacked by the main force of the Communist army and asking for reinforcements, quick." The division commander cursed.
"Order the three battalions of the fifth regiment to reinforce three regiments respectively. Go quickly and guard them to the death. I will shoot anyone who retreats. Go quickly." After saying this, the division commander closed his eyes and lay there quietly.
"Commander-in-chief, no, something happened." Xue Yue was woken up early in the morning. He was about to get angry, but when he saw the panting chief of staff, he endured it.
"What's the matter? It's so urgent." Xue Yue asked displeasedly.
"Commander-in-Chief, something has happened. He Long is attacking Changde County. Now Changde County is in danger."
"What, how could it happen! Damn it, I fell into a trap," Xue Yue slapped his head fiercely, "Send a report quickly and order the troops to hold on to Changde. We will return to the army immediately and we must hold on."
"Also, order the troops to set off now and rush back to Changde. This time we must capture He Long alive in Changde and pass on the order quickly." Xue Yue said quickly.
After ten minutes of artillery preparations, the city wall was completely unrecognizable. Looking at the scene in front of him, the first regiment leader gritted his teeth and said, "Why are you still standing there? Get ready to fight. The Communist Army is attacking the city." He quickly organized the remaining soldiers.
Organizational defense.
"Commander, the casualty report has been calculated. In the shelling just now, we have killed more than 200 people and seriously injured more than 200 people. Now we have more than 1,200 brothers." The chief of staff lowered his head and reported the number of casualties.
"Such a huge casualty!" the regiment leader said in disbelief and shook his head. But he didn't know that there would be even greater casualties to come?
In the ten-minute artillery preparation stage, Luo Wenhua, with his snipers covered in leaves, connected with the cover of artillery fire, had successfully established 60 sniper positions about 5 meters away from the city wall, and these sixty snipers
, is Liu Hua’s sharp sword for attacking the city this time.
"Order the first regiment and the first battalion to attack, and the second and third battalions will follow 500 meters later." Liu Hua ordered coldly.
"Commander, the Communist army is attacking." the chief of staff reminded.
"Hit me, machine gunner, hit me, I want to avenge my dead brothers." When the Red Army was still 800 meters away, the regiment commander gave the order to fire.
After hearing the fierce gunfire, the soldiers of the first battalion immediately fell to the ground and began to crawl forward, thinking that they knew that it was time for the sniper company to attack.
"Bang...bang..." With the sound of gunfire, the enemy's machine gunners fell down next to the machine gun one by one. After a while, the regiment leader could only hear the intermittent sound of the machine gun, and he lay prone on the ground.
The advancing Red Army was only 400 meters away from the city wall.
"Machine gunner, shoot quickly, hurry up!" the regiment leader shouted anxiously, but there was still no sound.
"Captain, commander, it's not good, come and have a look!" the chief of staff hurried over.
"What came into view was a corpse lying in front of every machine gun. Only a few machine gunners lay down under the battlements to avoid bullets and fired machine guns into the sky from time to time.
"Why is this happening? Come on, let the infantry come over. Come on?" the regiment leader said hurriedly, without time to think about why. Immediately, a battalion of infantrymen rushed over, picked up the machine gun and prepared to shoot. The regiment leader watched as a soldier took it.
A machine gun, after firing a few rounds, suddenly fell to the ground. Looking around, it was the same scene as before. The machine gunner who had just climbed up was shot dead again.
Seeing the communist troops getting closer and closer, the regiment leader became anxious, "Come on, keep on going, or I'll shoot you if you don't get up." Under the threat of the regiment commander, the soldiers once again picked up their machine guns and started shooting, but no one could
If you dare to raise your head, only God knows the accuracy of the machine gun.
At this time, the attacking battalion was only a few dozen meters away from the city wall. "Throw a grenade." The enemy commander finally thought of a way.
Liu Hua, who was standing at the rear, was rejoicing that his troops were approaching the city wall when suddenly, a black shadow was thrown down from the city wall.
"No, they are throwing grenades, and the first battalion will suffer." Liu Hua was right. As explosions were heard, dozens of motionless corpses were left in the place just now.
"Damn it! Chen Guangrong, move the mortars forward to provide fire cover for the troops, hurry up." Liu Hua shouted anxiously.
"Soon, 12 mortars from the mortar battery began to move towards the front of the position. In order to achieve accuracy, they started to build a position 800 meters away from the city wall.
"Commander, the Communist artillery is coming up." Following the reminder from the chief of staff, the regiment leader saw the artillery company building a position in the distance. "No, order the troops to withdraw the city wall, leaving one company to continue blocking."
He quickly gave the order and was the first to get off the city wall.
First Battalion Commander Liu Jun, with the remaining 300 or so men, suddenly felt that there were a lot less grenades thrown down. He looked back and saw that his artillery was constructing an artillery position. "Bullhorner, blow the charge horn, everyone is here," he said.
Charge with me." Liu Jun immediately shouted loudly.
As the charge horn sounded, the soldiers of the first battalion stood up and ran towards the city wall, regardless of the falling grenades. At the same time, the ladders dragged along were also lifted up and leaned against the city wall. The soldiers lifted them up one by one.
He was climbing up with his submachine gun firing continuously. One person fell down, and the other person continued to climb up.
The role of the sniper was demonstrated again at this time, and he kept firing to cover the soldiers climbing up the city wall. Soon, a soldier finally climbed onto the city wall. He saw the enemies on both sides who were constantly holding down grenades, and picked up
With a submachine gun lying on the ground, he kept firing at the people. At this time, another soldier came up. The two of them covered each other and kept shooting at the hot enemies on both sides. Finally, a platoon of troops climbed up through this ladder.
Under the attack of a platoon on the city wall, a company of enemy troops on the city wall was quickly dispersed. The remaining soldiers began to climb up the city wall continuously, and the gap became wider and wider.
