Devil's Army

The commander's face grew increasingly grim as he looked at the battle reports from the three city gate commanders yesterday.

In yesterday's battles at the three city gates, the casualties among the soldiers were higher than usual.

Their strategic supplies were already significantly reduced, and the supplies that were replenished every day were only a handful. If this continued, he didn't know how many days he could withstand the attacks of the devil's army.

In the early morning of the next day, the roar of the Xinjing Air Force's engines woke up the drowsy Japanese troops in Hailin County. They hurriedly looked for a place to hide from the air raid.

These days, they are used to being bombarded with airstrikes.

One of the bomber formations deviated from its course and flew towards the urban area of ​​Hailin County.

The sound of explosions from airplane bombs still lingered in our ears as the infantry, under the cover of tanks, began their attack on Hailin County.

Seeing that the devil troops had launched another attack, the Japanese and puppet troops hurried to the city wall to block them.

The tanks stopped advancing when they were still a certain distance away from the city wall. If they were too close to the city wall, these crazy Japanese soldiers would carry explosives and blow up their tanks.

The 7th Brigade lost three tanks in the battle a few days ago.

The tanks were parked in front of the city wall, like a bunker, covering the soldiers' attack on the wall.

The Japanese army's easily maneuverable mortar troops kept changing their positions and bombarding tanks.

Although these small-caliber artillery pieces cannot directly destroy the armor of the "Qukou" tanks, they can still destroy them if they hit the turret top or tracks directly.

The Xinjing Air Force also tried to destroy these mortar positions, but they were hiding under civilian houses with poor aerial visibility, and they would move to another location after firing a few shots, making it difficult to destroy them.

Fortunately, most of the Japanese large-caliber artillery were destroyed during the air raids over the past few days, otherwise the casualties of the First Army would have been even greater.

As soon as the bombing of Xinjing Air Force ended, the Japanese follow-up troops rushed to the city wall to reinforce. Unexpectedly, the artillery of the 7th Brigade suddenly roared again.

The Japanese and puppet troops who had just climbed up the city wall to reinforce were instantly turned into cannon fodder.

But this time the bombardment lasted for a very short time, less than ten minutes.

The Japanese commander was overjoyed. The Devil Troops' transportation lines had been destroyed by their air force, and the Devil Troops were short of artillery shells. He quickly ordered his soldiers to go up to the city wall to provide support.

The army commander's joy had not yet died down when the artillery shells of the 7th Brigade roared towards the city wall.

One morning, his squadron and a company of puppet troops were sent to reinforce the army three times, but they were all wiped out.

The puppet soldiers all knew that going up to the city wall to reinforce would mean committing suicide, but they would die faster if they didn't.

This morning's battle made the Japanese commander feel a little different from the past.

The devil's army's attack was not only more fierce, but also lasted longer.

He vaguely felt that something might happen today.

Before he could figure out what was going on, the east gate of Hailin County was destroyed by a tank. Under the cover of the tanks, soldiers from the Devil's Army rushed into the east gate of the city and were engaging in street fighting with their troops.

After so many days of fierce fighting, the troops of the 1st Regiment of the 7th Brigade suffered heavy casualties and had to retreat to rest.

The brutal street fighting was left to the Second Regiment.

The Japanese commander quickly dispatched troops to reinforce.

The commander of the Seventh Brigade finally broke into Hailin County just after eleven o'clock.

Brigade Commander Guo also intensified the attack on the south and west gates of Hailin County.

At this time, the 2nd Paratrooper Battalion responsible for the decapitation operation had landed at the foot of a mountain in the urban area.

This place is a little far from the city, but there are fewer Japanese troops.
