The Japanese troops who were reinforcing the south gate were ambushed by Yang Ling and others. They were caught off guard and were completely destroyed. The armored vehicles were also blown into scrap metal and lost their combat effectiveness.
"Captain, commander, the Chinese army has broken through the south gate defense line and has broken into the city!" A Japanese soldier covered in blood from the explosion stumbled into the regiment command post and shouted from a distance.
The Japanese commander was shocked when he heard this and jumped up from his seat: "Where are the reinforcements? Let them drive the Chinese out! Restore the position quickly!"
"The reinforcements were ambushed by the Chinese and all were shattered..."
When the Japanese commander heard this, he was stunned for a long time without reacting. He stepped forward and grabbed the Japanese soldier whose face was charred. He stared with blood-red eyes and yelled: "Impossible. There are hundreds of reinforcements. Why?"
The entire assembly is in pieces! You lied!"
"Captain, cough..." The Japanese soldier who reported the news was so strangled that his face turned purple and he was suffocated and could not speak.
The commander looked at the Japanese soldier who was almost being lifted off the ground with a fierce look on his face, and quickly let him go. The Japanese soldier fell to the ground, coughing violently.
"You, a coward who disturbs the morale of the army, deserve to be killed!" The Japanese commander with a cold face pulled out his southern pistol, pointed it at the Japs soldier's head and pulled the trigger.
With a crisp gunshot, the Japs soldier who had escaped to report the news was immediately hit by a bullet through his head, his brain was turned into a ball of paste, and he fell backwards to the ground.
The surrounding Japanese officers and guards were as silent as a chill when they saw the cold regiment commander.
The gunshots coming from the south of the city became more intensive, accompanied by the thunderous shouts of the Chinese army charging. The Japanese commander's face turned green and white. He had already guessed that something was wrong.
But he also knew that if the city's southern defense line fell and a gap was opened, the city would be close to falling. This was something he did not want to see, so he immediately dispatched new troops to the south gate in an attempt to block the gap.
This time, the Chinese army mobilized nearly thirty companies to attack the south gate. Now it has opened a gap. How can it be so easy to block it? Besides, there are also Chinese troops attacking from other directions. The Japanese army in the city has become
If you find the turtle in the urn, it will be destroyed sooner or later.
Yang Ling and the others eliminated the first wave of Japanese reinforcements in an ambush and successfully delayed the time. The follow-up troops that were blocked outside the city by Japanese plane bombings quickly followed.
When a steady stream of reinforcements poured into the city along the various gaps, they saw the corpses of the Japanese all over the ground, and when they saw Yang Ling and others covered with captured grenades, they were all shocked and speechless.
The regiment leader Zhang Handuo and others were blocked outside by Japanese aircraft bombings. They heard fierce gunfire in the city, and later even the gunfire disappeared. He thought that Yang Ling and his troops, who were the first to break in, had been killed by the Japanese, and his eyes turned red at that time.
But now seeing that Yang Ling and the others not only stood here properly, but also wiped out a large number of Japs, the leader Zhang Handuo wiped his wet eyes, clenched his fist and punched Yang Ling's chest hard, feeling sincerely happy.
Said: "I really have you!"
Since Yang Ling and the others guarded the south gate, the subsequent attacking troops were able to break into the city smoothly. Each company quickly divided into several groups and advanced towards the city to attack.
"Brother Yang, you have fought hard. Now take a rest here and leave it to us." Regiment leader Zhang Handuo showed sympathy to Yang Ling and the other three battalions and asked them to rest on the spot.
"Commander, we are not tired, we can continue to fight!" Captain Wang Huzi's beard was burnt, but his fighting enthusiasm was extremely high.
"Rest is an order and must be carried out." Zhang Handuo, the group leader, said seriously.
First Battalion Commander Lu Xing said with a smile: "You, Wang Hu, have been eating meat for so long, so you can't let our troops always drink soup, right?"
"Hehe, that's true." After hearing what the battalion commander said, Wang Huzi retreated angrily.
Yang Ling naturally knew how to shoot the first bird. Their third battalion's current contribution was already great enough. If they continued fighting like this, other troops would be jealous, so it was better to give way and let other troops also get some credit to balance the situation.
their hearts.
Although they are all affiliated to the Central Army, if they continue to eat alone and make the friendly troops dissatisfied, if they encounter danger in the future, it may be empty talk to expect others to help. Therefore, Yang Ling is not that stupid, and readily agreed to take a temporary rest.
The attacking position is given to friendly forces.
Soon Lu Xing's 1st Battalion and Chen Ming's 2nd Battalion took over the attack position of Yang Ling's 3rd Battalion, and continued to cooperate with the friendly 305th Regiment and others to continue the assault into the city, while Yang Ling and the others became a reserve team, resting and recuperating.
Follow behind and clean up the battlefield.
"Lieutenant Yang, we fought well and wiped out the Japanese in one go. Why should we free up our position and give it to them?" Shunzi, the new company commander, watched his friendly brothers happily rush forward past them, full of doubts.
.
My brother has been very angry on this battlefield, and now he is withdrawn while he is still in high spirits. No one feels comfortable. This is tantamount to handing over the fruits of victory to others.
The deputy battalion elder, Yanqiang, knocked Shunzi's steel helmet with his smoking gun, and laughed and cursed: "You idiot, the regimental commander cares about our brothers."
"Think about it, are the Japanese so easy to deal with? They are as ferocious as jackals. We were lucky enough to seize the city gate, but it was only because Captain Liu and his commando team lost so much. Do you think we can just fight inside the city?"
So easy? There’s a price to pay.”
The old smoker took a puff of dry cigarette and hummed twice: "If you don't believe it, just wait and see. Don't look at the loud banging of the chests of Camp Commander Lu and Camp Commander Chen. In the end, we still have to do it."
Pick up the pieces."
After hearing the instructions from the deputy battalion elder Yanqiang, Shunzi, who was originally feeling uncomfortable, looked at the city where the thick smoke remained, and seemed to think it made sense. He was also a veteran, so he naturally knew that this siege was the most difficult to fight.
, many times the troops may not be able to win it even if they spend all their strength.
"Don't be stunned. Let the brothers pick up more grenades. Maybe they will be useful." Yang Ling looked at the Japanese grenades scattered on the battlefield and ordered the brothers.
The grenades of the Japanese army are very destructive, and the diameter of the explosion can reach 12 meters, and the power is even more amazing. Therefore, Yang Ling hates the little devils, but loves these weapons of theirs, and hopes to retaliate in kind.
Yang Ling and the others moved to the rear, and the troops of the two battalions who were moved up opened up their posture, marched together along several ruined streets, and made a surprise attack into the city. Their momentum was fierce, and the small Japanese troops blocking the barricades were overwhelmed by them.
