The system sent me to fight

Devils may strike again at any time, or carry out retaliatory firepower against us!

So, don't be careless! "

Then, Yang Jing turned his head to look at Ma Tong who was at the side, and said, "Go to Ximen to see how the battle is going, and see how Battalion Commander Zhao and the others dug the tunnel. That's it!"

"Yes!" Ma Tong straightened up and immediately took the order to leave.

And Yang Jing also left the east gate and returned to the joint headquarters.

At this time, the battles at the South Gate, West Gate, and North Gate were still going on.

And just as Yang Jing returned to the joint headquarters, outside the east gate, the Japanese army that had just retreated made a comeback again.

After all, the Japanese army has an absolute superiority in military strength, and the 2000 troops lost just now are nothing to them at all.

Even with the casualties of the previous attacks, the total loss of the Japanese army has exceeded 8000.

But for the Devils coalition with three divisions and more than 80000 troops, it still hasn't reached the point where it can't hurt its muscles and vital energy.

The strength of the devil's divisions still exists, coupled with their desire to avenge their shame and revenge, and the inexorable military exploits of winning the complete annihilation of the Huben regiment.Therefore, it is naturally impossible to stop there.

Instead, give full play to their absolute superiority in military strength and firepower.

Several field companies under the jurisdiction of each division continued to take turns to go into battle.

At the same time, after replenishing fuel and ammunition at Hefei Airport, the Devil's fighter plane also went back and forth again, flying over Huoqiu County.

Cooperate with the Japanese army on the ground to launch an air attack on the Huoqiu defenders.

The devil's plane was constantly circling, diving, strafing and bombing in the sky, which caused great trouble to the gunners, and made them unable to concentrate their forces to support the battle of Simen.

The unconscionable guns of various branches were also attacked by Japanese artillery, tanks, and air firepower, and suffered heavy losses.

In the absence of fire support, the defenders of each gate can only fight against the continuous stream of devils with the weapons in their hands.

The devils have the advantage of ground and air firepower, and they have tanks and armored vehicles as cover.

In addition, after several consecutive failures, the Japanese army also learned to master it, and no longer waited for the aviation bombing to end before launching an attack.

Instead, under the cover of aviation, they decisively launched an attack.

In this way, when the defenders blocked the Japanese attacking troops on the city wall, they would be exposed to the fighters of the little devils and become their living targets.

In order to avoid greater casualties, Yang Jing had no choice but to order all the ministries to retreat to the city. Relying on the topography of the city, some buildings that had not completely collapsed were used to build flanking firepower and carry out street fighting with the devils.

At the same time, Yang Jing temporarily dispatched a group of sharpshooters from each battalion to seize the commanding heights in the city and build a sniper position.

At this time, the two sides are fighting for strength, equipment, ammunition, and combat experience.

Therefore, Yang Jing and the others had to make full use of the terrain and the existing equipment in their hands to fully display the overall strength of the Huben Regiment and the Independent Regiment, relying on the streets and alleys of the county to fight against the devil's attack step by step.

Fortunately, after a bloody battle outside the city, the defenders also caused a lot of casualties to the devils.

In addition to the previous losses in the first-line gorge, the Japanese army lost more than 15000 troops before they entered Huoqiu City.

Of course, the losses of the Huben Regiment and the Independent Regiment of the New Fourth Army were not small, especially the Independent Regiment, because the weapons and equipment and the quality of the soldiers were far inferior to the Huben Regiment.

Therefore, in the face of the Japanese attack, it is particularly difficult, and the casualties will inevitably be much higher.

Fortunately, as the defenders retreated into the city, the sky gradually dimmed.

Although the little devil who became angry from embarrassment may not stop attacking at this point, it will leave the defenders with a little breathing space.

But once it gets dark, the devil's superior firepower such as planes, tanks, and artillery will no longer be able to be used, and the overall combat strength will be greatly reduced.

The Huben Regiment and the Independent Regiment of the New Fourth Army relied on their familiarity with the terrain in the city and their advanced and rich experience in street fighting. It was relatively easy to block the Japanese attack at night.

At this time, Ma Tong also crawled out of the tunnel, and under the gunfire of the devils, he returned to the headquarters with a look of excitement, stood up and saluted Yang Jing and reported: "Tuan Zuo, the tunnel should have been dug outside the city. !"

After Yang Jing took a sharp puff of the cigarette, he raised his head and asked, "Oh? How did you make sure?"

Ma Tong said: "During the excavation, some brothers from the supply camp heard the vibration of the devil's tank rolling over the ground, and the roar of the engine!"

"That should have been dug outside the city, for safety's sake, dig three miles further.

Let the brothers speed up and strive to dig through the tunnel before dawn, so as to open up this life retreat for the brothers trapped in the city! "

After a pause, Yang Jing continued to instruct: "In addition, tell the guards of all gates to strengthen the defense of Ximen, and absolutely prevent the little devils from finding out that we are digging tunnels!

When necessary, you can give up the other gates and defend the Ximen area with all your strength! "

"Yes!"

Ma Tong's legs "cracked" together, and after saluting, he immediately led away.

PS!Benefactors, it’s the beginning of the month, please vote if you have a guaranteed monthly pass, thank you!

Chapter 321 An ambush in the city, fierce street fighting!

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

In Huoqiu County, after dinner, the Japanese army concentrated their artillery fire on the city again.

Although the air force cannot be dispatched at night, the accuracy of the artillery will be greatly reduced.

But before they entered the city, the city was full of enemies, and it was completely possible to carry out indiscriminate blind fire strikes.

From the devil's point of view, as long as they can kill more troops of the Huben Regiment, they can reduce some offensive resistance.

Therefore, for a while, the entire Huoqiu County was under fire, and the sound of explosions resounded through the night sky from all over the city.

Group after group of flames shot up into the sky one after another, illuminating the entire night like day.

The soldiers of the Huben Regiment and the Independent Regiment hid in the caves, only feeling that the whole earth was shaking violently.

The dirt fell down and fell on top of their heads. With the faint light of candles and torches, they looked like groundhogs.

However, although they looked embarrassed, there was an undisguised murderous look in their faces and eyes, and they were ready to continue resisting the Japanese attack.

"Warriors of the Empire, the time has come to serve His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Go! Go! Go!"

"Kill the chicken!"

"Kill the chicken!"

About half an hour later, the joint shelling by the Japanese army ended.

Under the orders of their commanders, tens of thousands of Japanese troops swarmed towards the city wall from all directions outside the city, shouting the slogan "onboard, onboard".

Yang Jing came out of the hole, strode back to the joint headquarters on the ground, and immediately picked up the phone on the table and gave orders to all the ministries: "Resist steadily, let the devils into the city, use the cover of night, use street fighting, ambushes, sparrow warfare , and the curtain challenge and the little devils to deal with.

In addition, each sniper team immediately rushed to the designated position as quickly as possible, built a sniper position, and provided fire cover for the defenders!

All in all, our purpose is only one, and that is to use up all means to consume the enemy, block the enemy, and kill as many invading enemies as possible!

However, before dawn, don't drive all the devils out of the city, lest the enraged Japanese army use shelling again! "

Bi Yuntao, Fan Tietou, Yu Zongping, Zhou Zichen and the others readily agreed, and then led their own troops. First, they allocated a part of their troops to fortify the four walls of the city, while the main force relied on the streets and alleys in the city. The houses on both sides are equipped with flanking firepower and various booby traps.

Since the Japanese army still has some tanks and armored vehicles, which can provide cover and fire support for the attacking troops, and the city wall has already collapsed with huge gaps one after another under the indiscriminate bombing of the Japanese army one after another.

Therefore, it is difficult to stop the frontal attack of the main force of the Japanese army by simply using the city wall as a position.

Therefore, after the flanking firepower and booby traps of the main force of the defenders were basically arranged, Yu Zongping, Bi Yuntao and other forward commanders ordered the soldiers guarding the city wall to retreat to lure the devils into the ambush circle.

After the defenders on the city wall withdrew, the pressure on the devils' attacking troops suddenly dropped, and they quickly broke into the gate, screaming and swarming into the city.

The East Gate is still the main direction of the Japanese attack.

At this time, on a street about 500 meters away from the east gate, most of the houses on both sides were razed to the ground by the bombing and air raids of the devils during the day, and turned into ruins.

At this moment, the main force of the 1st Battalion and 3rd Battalion 1st Company and 2nd Company of the Independent Regiment, under the leadership of the regiment leader Yu Zongping, is stepping up to set up an ambush here.

Relying on the relatively complete residential buildings on both sides of the street, one after another flanking firepower was built.

The dense firepower network formed by the interweaving of a group of firepower points can completely cover every surrounding street and lane, destroying any incoming enemy.

Even Yu Zongping himself hid on the ruins of a two-story house with a Maxim water-cooled heavy machine gun.

This two-story building, under the violent bombardment of the devils, has collapsed to the height of a one-story private house.

But it is still a commanding height with a wide view and an excellent location.

Yu Zongping's heavy machine gun is located here, not only can block a cross street 200 meters ahead, but also can use the surrounding residential buildings as a cover, making it difficult for the little devils who come to attack in the dark. Find and lock his position at the first time.

Ensure your own safety to the greatest extent.

In order to give the devil a head-on blow so that he can stick to it later, the ambushes of the other sects were also carried out in unison.

Due to the weak strength of the defenders at the east gate, Yang Jing specially dispatched the guard company.

At the same time, according to Yang Jing's instructions, the companies of the artillery battalion deployed the remaining 80 unconscionable cannons in some suitable positions in the city, so as to provide fire cover for the defenders when necessary, and to deal with the intruders. Perform a thunder strike!

It is worth mentioning that it was not long before Masaki Ito and Junrokuro Matsuura led the main forces of the 101st Division and the 106th Division of the Japanese Army to the city of Huoqiu.

Chen Lin and Liu Yue also brought the 3rd and 4th Battalions of the Huben Regiment to Huoqiu.

However, they did not unite with the defenders in the city to attack the besieging Japanese army internally and externally.

Because with their little force, they took the initiative to attack the Japanese army dozens of times stronger than them without a favorable location, which is tantamount to hitting a stone with a pebble and killing themselves.

Therefore, they only temporarily stationed in a mountain forest 30 miles west of the city in accordance with the instructions of the group leader Yang Jing.

Waiting all day made Liu Yue, who is more impatient, even more restless and restless.

Because, even if they were 30 miles away, they could clearly hear the sound of fierce firefights coming from the city of Huoqiu.

Those violent explosions sounded like exploding in Liu Yue's heart.

And the engine humming of the Japanese fighter planes in the sky that day, like countless big flies circling around Liu Yue's ears, made Liu Yue even more upset.

Finally, when it got dark, Liu Yue couldn't wait to propose to Chen Lin, Tian Cheng, Hou Zi and others: "Everyone, we can't move during the day, but now we can do it at night, right?"

The monkey hesitated for a moment, then said: "Battle Commander Liu, the order given to us by the regiment is to wait here, before we get the order, we must not act rashly, so as not to be self-defeating.

So, let's wait and see. "

Liu Yue said anxiously: "Company Commander Shi, what time is it? The little devil has a full 8 troops, and the regiment and the independent regiment of the New Fourth Army combined have less than 8000 troops.

Moreover, the Japanese army still has absolute air supremacy.

It is night now, and the Japanese fighter planes cannot take off. It is the best time for us to cooperate internally and externally to rescue the group!

But once it's delayed until dawn tomorrow, when the little devil's fighter plane takes off again, we have no chance not to talk, I'm afraid they may not be able to hold on for another day!

As soldiers, you should all be very clear that the military situation is on fire, and there is no room for delay! "

Chen Lin, Tian Cheng, Hou Zi and others were all lost in thought.

As a qualified sniper, you need to keep a calm mind at all times, so after a while, the monkey said again: "Liu Battalion Commander, it is not impossible to take action, but before that, I think we need to go first." Send a telegram to the delegation and get their permission!"

Liu Yue said: "Company Commander Shi, aren't you taking off your pants and farting? If the regiment agreed with our actions, they would have ordered us to kill the little devil and stab him in the ass!

You have to know that there is an old saying in China that generals are outside, and military orders are not accepted!

When necessary, we must make corresponding arrangements and deployments according to the current situation! "

This time, before the monkey could speak, Chen Lin took the lead and said, "Old Liu, you should be very clear about the abilities of our group, so don't doubt his choice.

If we act rashly, if we are self-defeating and disrupt the group's deployment, then we will be to blame for death!

What's more, didn't the group seat say that the brothers in the supply camp are digging the tunnel day and night, and it is expected that they will be able to get through before dawn.

At that time, the group members will be able to pass through the tunnel and withdraw from Huoqiu county calmly.

And if we launch an attack at this time, we will suffer heavy losses at least, or fall into the encirclement of the Japanese army.

At that time, is it necessary for the group to come back to rescue us again? "

After a pause, Chen Lin, the commander of the 3rd Battalion, changed his voice and continued: "Of course, it's not impossible for us to start operations, but as Company Commander Shi said, before that, we should send a telegram to ask the regiment for instructions." , and with his permission."

Liu Yue couldn't hold back the crowd, so he nodded in agreement.

Soon, the call came back and forth, and the reply was to stand still and wait for instructions.

Although Liu Yue was very unwilling, he could only suppress the impulse in his heart and give up for the time being.

The screen zooms back to Huoqiu County, the east gate.

As the defenders voluntarily abandoned the city defenses, the Japanese army was able to easily rush into the city and continue to crush them along the various streets towards the center of the city.

After Yu Zongping learned of the situation through the report of the scouts, his spirits immediately lifted, and he said to the messengers around him: "Send me the order, and the battalions and companies should prepare for battle immediately!"
