The Japanese who entered the city underestimating the enemy were met with a head-on attack by Yang Ling and others. Faced with bullets and grenades flying from the roofs and windows on both sides of the street, they were beaten until they cried for their fathers and mothers.
"What's going on up front?"
The fierce fighting in the streets of the city greatly surprised the Japanese commander. Logically speaking, the Chinese army had been defeated. How could a large-scale battle break out in the city?
"Report, I, Fujino, the Kaneda Infantry Team encountered an ambush by the Chongqing Army on the street while pursuing the Chongqing Army. The soldiers suffered heavy losses. Please support!"
Soon, Japanese soldiers covered in blood rushed over, bringing the latest battle situation in the city.
"Baga, the cunning Chongqing Army!"
When he heard that the two pursuing infantry squads were actually ambushed, the Japs commander's face became angry and twisted.
"Order!"
Several lieutenants and second lieutenants around the Japanese commander stood at attention and listened to the military orders.
"The small island troops and the Kawano troops immediately flanked the Chongqing Army and assisted the troops in the city to complete the task of annihilating the Chongqing Army!"
"Hiyi!"
The two Japanese second lieutenants with fierce eyes immediately bowed their heads heavily, and led two infantry squads of more than a hundred people who had not yet entered the battle to move quickly towards the flank, trying to make a flanking detour.
Yang Ling and others ambushed the Japanese troops in the city, causing heavy losses to the Japanese who entered the city. However, after all, the Japanese who entered the city were all field troops of the 13th Division.
After they encountered an ambush, the remaining Japanese soldiers evacuated quickly under the command of the officers, and stabilized their position with the help of the barricades left by the squadron in the city.
The officers and soldiers of the guard company had not fought such a happy battle for a long time. They wanted to wipe out all the Japanese who entered the city in one go, but they were stopped by Yang Ling.
Their ambush against the Japanese went smoothly, as they occupied a favorable position after all. However, the Japanese's combat effectiveness was not weak. If they relied on strong firepower to hold on, if they attacked the Japanese, lacking heavy firepower, they would surely suffer heavy casualties.
"Clean the battlefield and retreat immediately."
There are many buildings and barricades in the city that can be used. If they really attack outside the city, the enemy's firepower will be enough to suppress them. Yang Ling is not that stupid.
Although their Flame Special Forces Team is powerful, they are still mortal and not made of iron. There is no need for the brothers to take risks.
Moreover, the brothers of the Lieyan Special Warfare Brigade are good at small-scale combat, and street fighting in the city is more suitable for them.
The brothers of the Flame Special Warfare Brigade are now in a state of poverty. When they set out from the Sulu War Zone, they had to pass through enemy-occupied areas, so they were equipped with pistols and grenades, and the number was not large.
When we arrived at Zhijiang, we were disarmed again. We finally got some weapons and equipment, but they were of all kinds.
Now that they saw the little Japs lying dead on the ground, the brothers were not polite at all, and came directly like a storm. All the weapons and equipment that could be used were not left behind. The officers and soldiers of the guard company were dumbfounded.
"Can you use these equipments?"
Seeing the brothers of the Flame Special Forces holding Japanese grenades, some officers and soldiers from the guard company asked curiously.
"Hey, there's no one who can't use it. Just wait and see how we beat the little devil!"
The brothers evacuated quickly. After retreating a few hundred meters, Yang Ling ordered the guard company and Lieyan 1st Special Operations Squadron to rely on buildings for defense. The 2nd Special Operations Squadron was divided into four special operations squads, responsible for swimming.
Combat.
Yang Ling and the others successfully ambushed the Japanese, allowing the defeated officers and soldiers to take a breather and gather themselves together.
In addition to those who were killed or scattered in the previous battle, there are now less than 400 officers and soldiers in the two battalions. It can be said that there have been heavy casualties, including one dead and one wounded battalion commander.
Staff Major Liu of the regiment headquarters intercepted these withdrawn troops and asked them to set up defenses behind Yangling and others. At the same time, he assisted in transferring the people in the city and the guards of important strongholds.
Two Japanese infantry squads came from the flank and tried to flank Yang Ling and the others. Unexpectedly, Yang Ling and the others retreated on their own initiative, which made them miss.
Some frustrated Japanese soldiers were unwilling to fail and immediately organized their forces to attack Yang Ling and the others again.
"Boom-boom-boom!"
Balls of fire rose from the corner of the street, slamming into the houses on both sides of the street. Along with the deafening explosion, countless debris and wood splattered, reflecting the red surroundings.
The officers and soldiers hiding in these private houses were constantly hiding for fear of being killed by the flying fragments.
The Japs' grenades and mortars bombarded a block defended by Yang Ling and others for a full five minutes. The surrounding area was a mess and many brothers were injured.
Fortunately, all the people in this area were driven away when Yang Ling and his friends ambush just now, and no innocent people were killed or injured.
As soon as the Japanese bombardment ended, they charged along the street with shining bayonets, arrogant and arrogant.
"Little devil, come on!"
"Teng Teng Teng -"
When the crouching Japs entered the shooting range, the Miner four-heavy machine gun hidden in the Yimidian store took the lead in roaring, kicking off the battle.
The violent heavy machine gun bullets swept across, cutting off the Japanese at the waist. Some Japanese watched helplessly as their arms were shattered. The screams were horrifying to hear in such a night.
All kinds of bullets flew inside and outside various buildings, and the walls were full of bullet holes. From time to time, Japanese soldiers who rushed in were shot and fell in the ruins, and then were dragged down by their companions, leaving streaks on the ground.
Blood band.
The brothers of the guard company and the Flame Special Forces hid in the building, forcing the little devils to advance from house to house, and the originally smooth battle turned into a street fight.
When the Japs took advantage of the superior firepower and pursued them from room to room, the brothers of the Second Flame Special Forces Squadron were not idle either. They worked as a team and moved towards the flanks and back of the Japs.
"boom!"
A Japanese battlefield guard post posted on the flank saw a dark shadow flashing across the alley in the distance. Before he could grab his gun, a ball of blood burst out of his head, and he fell to the ground with a splash.
The gunfire from the flank suddenly alerted the Japanese, and they hurriedly sent out a combat team to rush out, trying to kill their attackers.
"Boom!"
But not far after they chased them, there was an explosion, and they were all knocked down. Then several black shadows came out like ghosts, raising their bayonets towards the undead Japanese, and the Japanese screamed in agony.
The sound stopped suddenly.
When another Japanese combat team arrived, they saw only the corpses of their companions lying on the ground. They were so angry that they were furious.
This kind of attack is not the end, but the beginning. The brothers of the Second Squadron of the Flame Special Warfare Brigade, who are so elusive, are like a fish in water in such dark ruins, and they continue to launch frequent attacks against the Japanese.
The battle lasted until dawn. Instead of capturing the block that Yang Ling and his team were guarding, the Japanese had to repeatedly shrink the defense circle due to heavy losses, and eventually had to evacuate the city.
After several hours of fighting between the two fully-equipped Japanese combat teams, less than thirty people were finally able to evacuate the city, and the rest all died in the city.
"The Chongqing Army in the city has a large number of troops. They relied on the buildings to resist tenaciously. My two attacks were frustrated and I requested tactical guidance from the brigade headquarters."
Facing the undefeatable Zhijiang City, the two Japanese squadrons, which had suffered serious casualties in successive battles, had to stop their attacks and seek help from the brigade headquarters on the other side of the river.
