Anti-Japanese War: My strategist joins the game and awakens the small map!

Jincheng, west of the city.

In the wind, snow and smoke, it is difficult to see its beams of light shining on the earth.

This ancient city, which has weathered many storms, is once again experiencing the baptism of artillery fire.

The city wall spanning this land has long been in ruins. Every gap has been filled with sandbags to form a position, and the fire of heavy machine guns illuminates the sky and the earth.

"Captain Gao, the south city wall has been destroyed. We can no longer hold it..."

Zhang Tiesheng quickly ran to Gao Jiecheng and said while breathing heavily.

Since the Third Regiment retreated to Jincheng, the Japanese soldiers in Pingtuo Mountain did not rush to attack, but instead cleared the surrounding area and consolidated the surrounding positions.

Obviously, they wanted to use Pingtuo Mountain in the northwest as the base of the offensive process. Except for the Japanese soldiers coming from the northeast, the Japanese soldiers coming from other directions would gather in Pingding Mountain for rest.

Zhang Tiesheng felt that these Japanese soldiers were a little different from those he had encountered in Shanxi before. They fought recklessly and charged in an organized manner. If it were not for the better distribution of firepower in the Tiger and Leopard Brigade's positions, they would have been unable to hold off these Kwantung Army troops.

They continued to move in batches without interruption, and were even attacked twice by bombers. However, due to weather reasons, they did not survive for a single day.

Now everyone knows that it is only the first dawn and there are still more than ten hours to hold on.

Gao Jiecheng, who was lying on the city wall, put down the telescope with one hand after hearing these words, took out the map and looked towards the south of the city.

"Where are the Japs now?"

Gao Jiecheng stared at the map and asked quickly.

"After discovering the breach in the city wall and attacking, their formation now spread out in an arc. However, at the main gate in the south, all the firepower was suppressed there, and they couldn't even raise their heads..."

Zhang Tiesheng felt a little ashamed. After all, there was no harm without comparison. Now the entire Third Regiment's forces were all dispersed. The entire huge Jincheng was filled with soldiers from the Third Regiment.

Their entire regiment was defending the south of the city, and now, after a brief contact, they encountered a big problem.

"The entire regiment will hold out for another hour. This will buy time for us to build up our positions and reinforce our heavy firepower. Let them in after an hour."

Gao Jiecheng thought for a moment and said seriously that facing enemies that were several times their number, one day and one night would actually be difficult. He had to make use of the limited space to build a blocking position.

Through layers of blocking positions, we can reduce casualties and increase damage.

"Okay." Zhang Tiesheng, who was standing by, heard what he said and wanted to say something but swallowed it back.

Gao Jiecheng looked at the departing figure and called out loudly, "Li Hongyan."

Li Hongyan, who was not far away, ran over quickly with his body bent.

"Captain!"

"How many Japanese soldiers are outside Jincheng now?" Gao Jiecheng could more or less guess the reason why they were defending Jincheng. It took time for their respective troops to reach their designated positions.

In other words, the longer he holds on to Jincheng, the easier it will be for Lin Lu to complete his strategic deployment.

"Captain... there are already about 70,000 of them." Li Hongyan's tone was a little low, but there was not much fear on his face. After all, the order had been issued, and since they had to defend for a day and a night, they had to do it.

"Are the Japanese coming from the Fu...Xin direction?"

"Only a small number have arrived and they should still be on the way. The key point is that the 35th Division is breaking out to the east, and a large number of enemies are pouring towards Jin, which may reach more than 80,000 in a short time." Li Hongyan introduced the situation in the northeast with a serious tone.

"Eighty thousand..." Gao Jiecheng felt a huge pressure, but he turned around and shook off some distracting thoughts.

At this point, no matter whether the enemy is 80,000 or 100,000, he needs to stick to Jincheng like a nail.

Gao Jiecheng hesitated for a moment, then quickly spoke:

"Arrange Ma Kanghui to go to the north of the city. Remember, not a single enemy soldier can be allowed in before noon. After that, you can let the enemy soldiers into the second line of defense."

"Fang Ming, go to the tower on the right wing, bring more machine guns, spread out a bit, and place more radiation points on the right wing."

Gao Jiecheng thought for a moment and spoke again: "You go to the south of the city. When the Japanese come in, all of them will be blocked at the city gate. The firepower must be fierce. Watch for the signal. Once the signal comes, withdraw the second defense." Gao Jiecheng's tone was full of solemnity. The pressure of this battle was not small.

"Yes!" Li Hongyan nodded.

As Li Hongyan left, Gao Jiecheng couldn't help but take out his pocket watch, looked down at it, and looked at the busy soldiers around him with a determined look in his eyes.

"We must hold on for more than ten hours..." The moment Gao Jiecheng gave the order, he knew what the entire Third Regiment would face here.

There were groups of Japanese soldiers outside the city. Although it was bright outside, the sun was not there and only haze covered the sky.

In the south of the city, Zhang Tiesheng returned to the team, and Luo Wensheng came over first.

"Captain..." Luo Wensheng spoke in an anxious tone.

"Guard for another hour."

Zhang Tiesheng landed on the position with a light machine gun in his hand and said in a firm tone.

The nearest ten meters outside the ruined city wall was covered with blood and flesh, and the strong smell of blood filled his sense of smell even in this cold winter.

This group of Kwantung troops that came south from the northern border fought extremely fiercely. When they charged, they charged against some of the firepower points of the Third Regiment.

Some Japanese soldiers who were charging would lie down on the ground and build a shelter with their dead bodies if they saw that the opportunity was not right.

When bullets hit this kind of position, blood and flesh splattered and blood mist rose, but just like Pingtuo Mountain, it did not affect morale at all.

"We must hold on for this hour at all costs to buy time for the Third Regiment to improve its defense position." Zhang Tiesheng said in a firm tone.

The entire 714th Regiment has more than 4,000 people, but you have to know that one regiment guards the south of the city, and three regiments guard the entire city.

Facing the Kwantung Army, known as the flower of ace, and enemies that were several times larger than theirs, this alone made Zhang Tiesheng feel breathless. After all, it was just a short battle, and the sense of oppression was too great.

This was based on the fact that the Third Regiment arranged a battalion of more than 1,600 soldiers to assist in the defense.

At this moment, Zhang Tiesheng finally understood what a high-intensity confrontation meant.

One is the Kwantung Army guarding the northern border, and the other is the Tiger and Leopard Brigade that fought its way through, known as the strongest iron regiment in positional warfare.

"The Iron Ball itself crawled out of a pile of dead bodies..."
