Bright Sword: I am the old squad leader of the Northwest Shanxi Iron Triangle

Chapter 144: Give Me Your Best

Watching the tanks and armored vehicles rolling in.

These little Japanese soldiers all felt their scalps tingling.

“There is no way this battle can be fought.”

"Without air support, how can we defend it?"

"Where are the planes from the aviation brigade? Why haven't they come yet?

If they don't come, we won't be able to defend the city. If the city is lost, will they be able to take responsibility?"

"Even if those planes were crawling on the ground, they would have come here by now."

"The warriors of the Empire should not count on those air forces."

"The Air Force has sent a number of planes to bomb the Tubalu's headquarters. But now the Tubalu have reached our city. It's understandable that the Air Force has not made any progress."

After hearing these words, the Japanese soldiers on the city wall nodded repeatedly.

Confess defeat before the battle even begins.

These Japanese devils are no longer the fearless ones. They have all become cowards.

Soon, the scene in front of them stunned many Japanese soldiers.

"What are those Tubalu on Bageya Road doing? Why did they stop moving forward?"

"Our reinforcements must have arrived."

"If our reinforcements can arrive on time, we can still defend this city. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."

All the Japanese soldiers stared into the distance with their eyes fixed.

However, they looked through the telescope for a long time but did not see any reinforcements.

All they saw was more than 100 trucks stopping one after another.

The artillerymen jumped off the truck one by one and unloaded all the Type 107 mm rocket launchers towed behind the truck.

Ling Yunzhi cleared his throat and shouted at the artillery with a loud speaker: "Zhu Zi, you artillerymen should kill more than 80% of these little devils in one round of shooting."

After Ling Yunzhi finished speaking, he took out the telescope and looked in the direction of the Japanese city wall. The sun was rising above the Japanese city wall.

But now even a fool could see that the Japanese had placed all their main forces on the city walls and in front of the city walls, and that the main forces were in the direction of Ling Yunzhi's attack.

Zhang Dabiao rushed over and said, "Brigade Commander, should we disperse our forces and attack the city from multiple directions?"

Zhang Dabiao spoke while gesturing with his hands.

Ling Yunzhi snorted coldly: "These little devils are not enough. I am just trying to fill my teeth. Are they worthy of being divided into two groups to attack?"

"Zhu Zi, when the gunfire starts in the city, you guys should bomb them as hard as you can."

"Zhang Dabiao, shoot three flares into the air to tell Wei Dayong and the others that we are here."

Wang Chengzhu's artillery quickly dug pits and secured each Type 107 mm rocket launcher.

The muzzles of these Type 63 107mm rocket launchers were all pointed at the Japanese city walls and the fortifications in front of them.

These fortifications were built very solidly.

The Japanese dug more than a dozen trenches on the front.

These trenches are interconnected and dense like a spider web.

In addition, the Japanese also built a number of bunkers and turrets, the firing holes of which all faced forward.

In the past, people would have been terrified when seeing these numerous artillery towers and bunkers.

Now, in Ling Yunzhi's view, these bunkers and artillery towers are like lambs to be slaughtered. As long as he gives an order, Wang Chengzhu's artillery can destroy all these bunkers and artillery towers with ease.

Five minutes later, artillery of various calibers were all aimed at the Japs' towers and fortifications in front.

Ling Yunzhi nodded at Zhang Dabiao.

Zhang Dabiao picked up a signal gun, walked forward a few steps quickly, and pulled the trigger towards the sky.

Three snaps.

Three red flares flew directly into the sky.

When the Japanese soldiers on the city wall saw this, they were even more at a loss.

"Damn it, what on earth are these Chinese doing?"

"Are these Chinese preparing to attack?" Many Japanese soldiers gripped their guns tightly, causing sweat to form on their hands.

Although the weather was very cold, beads of sweat the size of beans were dripping down from their foreheads.

These Japanese soldiers didn't know what to do and they just stared straight ahead.

"Warriors of the Empire, be prepared for me."

"Once these Chinese enter our design range, we will beat them to death. Kill all these Tubalu."

"Hey..."

All the Japanese soldiers hid behind the bunkers, aiming their guns forward.

However, they waited for several minutes but saw no movement.

Ling Yunzhi and his team stayed where they were, not moving.

At the same time, Wei Dayong and his men, several hundred people, had quietly reached the foot of the city wall.

"Brothers, set up the 60 mortars for me." After Wei Leyong finished speaking, he blew a whistle and more than a dozen mortars were set up along both sides of the street.

Some of these Type 60 mortars were placed on the streets, and some were placed on rooftops.

All the 60-mm mortar guns were aimed at the Japanese on the city wall.

Soon, everyone used gestures to convey information, and Wei Dayong saw that the dozen or so Type 60 mortars were ready.

"Brothers, don't just stand there, fire quickly, the people outside are waiting for us."

Wei Dayong swung his big hand forward violently.

A dozen artillery main shooters picked up the 60-mm mortar shells and stuffed them into the gun barrels.

bang bang bang bang...

There was a sound of a shell sliding into the barrel.

Accompanied by bursts of crisp sounds, the shells quickly flew out of the barrel.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...

These dozen shells cut through the air, leaving graceful arcs in the sky.

A few seconds later, these dozen shells accurately landed on the city wall.

The Japanese soldiers on the city wall were still on high alert, aiming at the bottom of the city wall.

Many of the Japanese soldiers had rich combat experience, and when they heard the whistling sound, they realized that a mortar shell was flying towards them.

"There is artillery fire on Bageya Road. Be on guard, be on guard quickly." The Japanese soldiers who had just been standing and hiding behind the bunkers quickly lay down on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud rumbling sound of explosions.

The dozen or so shells exploded on the city wall.

Those Japanese soldiers who were standing were unable to dodge and were knocked to the ground in large numbers.

Some Japanese soldiers were directly blown down from the city wall by the shock wave of the explosion.

The Japanese soldiers screamed and fell from the city wall, and were smashed into pieces on the spot.

Ling Yunzhi heard the explosion coming from the tower and yelled at Wang Chengzhu: "Zhuzi, your artillerymen should stop watching the show. If you don't fire, Wei Dayong and his miscellaneous artillerymen will finish the job."

After Wang Chengzhu heard this, he shouted, "Attention, all the guns! Fire as hard as you can."
