Chen Xuedong clenched his hands into fists and put them under his chest, lying on the ground without daring to move.
Even with his fists under his chest, Chen Xuedong could feel the violent tremors transmitted from the ground. This kind of intense tremors must be at least shells fired by cannons with a caliber of 120mm or above, which can shock people to death!
A boy from Chen Xuedong's village was beaten to death like this when he was a child. However, at that time, he was still a platoon leader of the 68th Division of the Shanxi-Sui Army, and he also fought to the death with the Japanese on the anti-Japanese battlefield.
But now, Chen Xuedong was a small company commander of the so-called Imperial Association Army. He became a traitor and was driven to the South Gate of Datong by the Japanese with a company of puppet soldiers. The Japanese's intention was very clear, which was to take him.
The puppet troops of this company were used as cannon fodder to consume as much artillery fire as possible from the Chahar Independent Regiment.
The shelling by the Chahar Independent Regiment continues.
"Rumble..." A loud sound came from the front right.
Without looking up, Chen Xuedong could guess that a section of the South Gate City Wall must have been destroyed by the bombing. The South Gate City Wall of Datong was already in disrepair. Two years ago, the Japs attacked Datong and suffered a wave of indiscriminate bombings.
, this time they were bombarded even more fiercely by the Chahar Independent Regiment, and finally they could no longer bear it.
In the blink of an eye, a section of the city wall that was more than 20 meters collapsed. Huge smoke and dust rose up into the sky, and soon covered the entire south gate city wall. Chen Xuedong looked up and saw that everything in his field of vision was billowing gray.
Smoke and dust, there are no other colors in the world except gray and white.
However, the shelling by the Chahar Independent Regiment continued.
Therefore, Chen Xuedong absolutely did not dare to get up. Even though the wall he was on was less than ten meters away from the collapsed gap and was already crumbling, he did not dare to move, because if he lay still, the wall might not necessarily collapse.
It collapsed, but if you jump up at this time, you will definitely be smashed into a sieve by the shell fragments, broken bricks, and gravel splashed in all directions. As a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles, Chen Xuedong understands this deeply.
After half an hour, the bombardment finally ended.
After at least five more minutes, the smoke and dust that filled the south gate city wall finally dispersed.
When he poked his head from behind the battlements and looked out, Chen Xuedong's eyes suddenly widened. Under the night sky and in the light of the fire, a dozen black behemoths were spitting out billowing black smoke and approaching the city wall.
, just by looking at it, Chen Xuedong recognized that it was a tank, and there was actually a tank!
Chen Xuedong never thought that one day the Chinese army would have such a formation!
Chen Xuedong never thought that one day the Chinese would actually use cannons to bombard the Japs, and would also drive tanks to fight the Japs. In an instant, Chen Xuedong's thinking became confused. Isn't this too fake? Tubal Road
When did it become so rich? This level of equipment is even more like a Japanese than a Japanese!
Not only Chen Xuedong, but also all the puppet troops in the south gate city wall were stunned.
Not only the puppet troops were confused, but also the Japanese who had just come up from the city.
Seeing that the Chinese army was guided by tanks outside the city, the leading Japanese squadron leader was immediately dumbfounded. Then he immediately ordered Chen Xuedong to take the puppet army company out of the city and build the first line of defense outside the city wall. Chen Xuedong and the officers and soldiers of the puppet army company
I was blown away when I heard that. Are you kidding? If you go out of the city at this time, isn't that going to your death?
However, the Japanese squadron leader did not care about the life and death of the puppet troops at all, and insisted on asking the puppet troops to leave the city.
To be honest, in the eyes of the Japanese, the so-called Imperial Alliance Army is basically no different from dogs.
Chen Xuedong immediately became angry. Everyone on the left and right was dead. Instead of dying under the gun of one of his own men, it would be better to fight with the Japanese Japs. At that moment, Chen Xuedong took out the mirror box and killed the Japs squadron leader who was leading the team.
When the puppet soldiers saw this, they also raised their rifles and started a melee with the Japanese.
…
outside the city.
Yao Lei carried Bobosha on his arm, bent over and walked forward behind the tank.
Yao Lei finally got his wish and became the commando captain. This time, He Guangming finally stayed at the headquarters honestly and never came to the front line to compete with him for work.
The T-34B tank responsible for guidance fired its guns while advancing.
Under the night sky, dazzling red lights bloom from time to time.
In a short while, several gaps were blown out of the south gate city wall.
Seeing that there were only more than a hundred meters away from the south gate city wall, Yao Lei raised the Bobosha submachine gun in his hand and was about to order an assault when gunfire suddenly erupted from the tower in front of him.
What's going on? There are friendly forces in the city? Yao Lei was immediately stunned. He hadn't heard that there were guerrillas from our party in Datong City? He had heard that there were several transportation stations of the underground party, but just relying on a few transportation stations,
Obviously, it is impossible to cause such a big battle at the top of the city. This must be at least a melee involving more than one company.
But after all, Yao Lei is a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles. He made a quick decision in just a moment. He immediately led a company of officers and soldiers to cross the guided tanks and rushed to the city tower on the collapsed ruins. After reaching the top of the city,
Yao Lei discovered that it was actually the puppet army who rebelled in front of the formation and had a fierce fight with the Japs guarding the formation.
Under the pincer attack between battalions and companies and the puppet troops, a squadron of Japs were quickly wiped out, and Chen Xuedong was also brought to Yao Lei.
Yao Lei asked: "What's your name?"
Chen Xuedong replied: "Chen Xuedong."
Yao Lei hummed and asked again: "Unit number and position?"
Chen Xuedong replied with a slumped head: "The Imperial Association Army, uh no, is a puppet army..."
"Shut up." Yao Lei said impatiently, "I'm asking you about your army and position before you became a traitor."
Chen Xuedong's head drooped more and more, and he whispered: "Platoon leader of the 68th Division of the Jinsui Army."
"I'm going, it turns out it's the Jinsui Army. No wonder it looks like that when the battle starts." Yao Lei groaned and said, "But it's okay anyway. Our political commissar told us before we left that as long as you
If the puppet troops can change their minds, wake up, and make meritorious deeds in battle, the past will not be held accountable."
"Yes, yes." Chen Xuedong nodded repeatedly and said, "Sir, don't worry, we will perform well and strive to be a new person."
Yao Lei hummed and asked again: "You must be familiar with the terrain in Datong City, right? There are also the Japanese defense arrangements, do you know?"
"Familiar." Chen Xuedong said repeatedly, "I grew up in Datong, and I know every street and alley here very well. I don't know the Japanese's defense deployment very well, but I know the little Japanese's division headquarters.
Wherever you are, if the commander can trust me, I will take you there and destroy the Japanese division headquarters."
When Yao Lei heard this, his eyes suddenly sharpened, piercing Chen Xuedong's eyes like a knife.
Chen Xuedong looked at Yao Lei calmly, without any fear in his expression.
After a few seconds, Yao Lei asked: "Is the Japanese division headquarters far from here?"
"Three streets away, the street is heavily guarded by Japanese troops." Chen Xuedong nodded, and continued, "However, I also know of an alley that you can go through directly."
Yao Lei immediately turned around and shouted: "Silly man!"
A burly soldier came over with Bobosha on his arm: "Company commander, you called me?"
Zhao Dasha was the platoon leader of a company, and Yao Lei and his old brothers were used to calling him Big Silly.
Yao Lei hummed and said, "Take a squad and follow him to pick up the Japanese division headquarters."
"Promise to complete the task!" Zhao Dasha agreed, then turned to Chen Xuedong and shook his head, "Let's go!"
Chen Xuedong immediately ducked into an alley next to him. Zhao Dasha also took a class of brothers and followed him into the alley. Of course, it was said that it was a class, but in fact there was a platoon, with a total of five people.
There are more than ten people, and they are all elite veterans from Dameishan. Their equipment is also the same Bobosha submachine gun.
With Chen Xuedong as a local leader leading the way, this elite soldier quickly reached the headquarters of Anda 23rd Division.
At this time, Anda 23rd had already armed the staff, communications corps, and service personnel of the division headquarters and assigned them to the outer defense line. Apart from a few staff officers, there were only dozens of female communications officers left in the entire division headquarters.
, Anda 23 is even considering whether to transfer these dozens of female soldiers to the front line.
The poor old devil had no idea that a group of elite soldiers had quietly entered his division headquarters.
There is nothing much to say about the following battle. Facing more than fifty elites equipped with Bobosha submachine guns, Anda 23rd and the few remaining staff officers in the division headquarters, as well as dozens of female ghost soldiers
, it can be said that there was no resistance. In less than a moment, everyone in the entire division and regiment was killed, leaving no one alive.
The old devil Anda Twenty-three was also shot into a sieve by the Bobosha submachine gun.
The division headquarters was destroyed, and the Japanese outside immediately fell into chaos.
Chen Xuedong even volunteered to help the Chahar Independent Regiment contact several other puppet army company commanders and battalion commanders. After discovering that the puppet army was gone, they all started to help the Chahar Independent Regiment fight the Japanese. Even the puppet troops in Datong City
The common people also spontaneously stood up to fight the devils, and the little devils in the city fell directly into the vast sea of people's war.
Poor little devil, he still wants to fight a street fight with the Chahar Independent Regiment in Datong, but he doesn't know that Datong is a city in China. Without the cover and support of the people, it is very difficult to even gain a foothold in the city, and he still has to fight in the streets.
?The reason why the Songhu Independent Regiment was able to fight street battles with the Japs in Shanghai was mainly because of the support of the people of Shanghai.
In less than two hours, the gunfire in Datong City gradually became sparse. The organized resistance of the Japanese in the city had been completely destroyed, and only a few Japanese were left hiding in private houses to resist. But with this alone
The sporadic Japanese remnants were no longer enough to change the overall situation of Datong's recovery.
