"By the way, tell all the soldiers that once they enter the streets to fight, they must not run outside the two hundred meters. That will cause the Japanese to accidentally injure civilians.
Even if they die, they will not You must die within two hundred meters of the city gate, you hear me?" Zhao Chengxu said loudly.
No matter what time, he does not want the common people to be harmed, let alone let the common people die because of the soldiers
"Yes" everyone responded loudly.
"Have the trenches outside the city been dug?" Zhao Chengxu then asked.
The trenches outside the city are the first line of defense against the enemy and are crucial.
"Everything has been dug." A regimental leader said that the trenches outside the east and west city gates have been dug, and the soldiers can go down to the trenches at any time.
"That's okay." Zhao Chengxu nodded. The battle plan has been arranged and the people have been settled. Now, they are just waiting for the Japanese to come.
In the afternoon, Liu Changshun returned to the temporary camp and informed Xu Qingfeng of the situation. Xu Qingfeng immediately asked someone to send a telegram to the regiment leader.
The Japs and the others also began to take action. The sky was dark, it started to rain lightly, the road became muddy, and their progress became extremely slow.
"This damn weather in Baga, it's going to rain when it says it's going to rain," the Japanese Lieutenant Colonel sat in the car, looking at the light rain falling outside, and couldn't help cursing.
The rain will undoubtedly delay their advance, preventing them from arriving early to capture Wu County.
"The rain came at the right time, delaying the enemy's attack." In the woods, Li Jin stretched out his hand and felt the raindrops falling on his palm.
The rain came just in time, greatly delaying the Japanese's progress.
Wuxian County, East Gate.
On the walkway of the city wall, Zhao Chengxu looked at the light rain falling from the sky with a heavy heart.
He knew very well that there would not be any support for this battle. He knew the situation within the national army better than anyone else. They were fighting openly and secretly, and even though there would be support, it only gave him a glimmer of hope.
If the people above are not biased, give them normal equipment, and defend Wuxian County for a month, he can still guarantee it. As long as the Japanese do not send a brigade over, he is confident that he can Keep it.
But their equipment was really poor, and they had no choice but to risk their lives. When Wu County fell completely, none of the 5,200 Sichuan troops might survive.
"Oh, I can't help you anymore. How long have we been here? I still want to take you back to Sichuan." Zhao Chengxu sighed lightly. It seems that the promise he made can't be fulfilled.
It was raining lightly in the dark sky, and many of the Sichuan soldiers guarding the city felt heavy in their hearts. They all knew the battle they would encounter next.
Although they knew that the time would be very tragic and the brothers who lived together day and night would be sacrificed in front of them, they were not afraid.
Death, some are lighter than a feather, some are heavier than Mount Tai, and they definitely belong to the latter group
Defend the home and the countryAnd dying is worth it
Around four o'clock in the afternoon.
A correspondent rushed to the temporary command post all wet.
In the headquarters, Li Yunlong, Deputy Commander Qian and three battalion commanders are all here.
On the ground, they also made a miniature sand table with a radius of ten miles in Wuxian County.
"Commander, the special operations team has sent a telegram." In the temporary tent, the correspondent took out a telegram from his arms.
"What's going on with Li Jin? Have they found any traces of the Japanese?" Li Yunlong asked.
"Report to the leader, the Japanese are about eighty miles away from Wu County now, and they will arrive in Wu County the day after tomorrow." The correspondent said and handed the telegram to Li Yunlong.
"It seems that we guessed correctly. The target of the Japanese is really Wu County." Deputy Commander Qian said with a serious face.
"Should we rush over now to provide support?" Song Qian said.
"Don't worry, let them fight first, and we will take the opportunity to sneak around and attack." Li Yunlong said.
His purpose was to annihilate this group of Japs, not to enter Wuxian County and fight against the Japs with the defenders. That would scare the Japs away.
When the Japs attacked Wu County, they took the opportunity to run behind the Japs and annihilate them.
"The Japs will not attack in the same place when they attack the city. Both the east and west gates will definitely be attacked, and this is our opportunity.
To defeat this group of Japs, the final The important thing is to get rid of the Japanese artillery positions first.
As long as the Japanese artillery positions are eliminated, the pressure on Wu County can be reduced and they will not suffer heavy casualties.
The enemy's position will probably be set up about two or three miles away from the city gate for safety reasons.
When the Japanese attack the city, we will first send two hundred people to clear the position, and then take the enemy's Bombing the Japanese with artillery,
At that time, as long as the defenders are not stupid, they should understand that there are reinforcements to support them,
As long as they attack the Japanese, we will also attack, front and back Attack the Japanese from both sides," Li Yunlong said.
No matter how stupid the commander is, when he sees a bunch of Japs being killed by artillery shells, he should understand that reinforcements have attacked the Japs from behind, and immediately send people out to chase the Japs and encircle the Japs.
"When we arrive, we will also divide our troops into two groups to surround and attack the Japanese from the rear. Zhang Dabiao and Song Qian, you two will bring a thousand men to the rear of the Japanese at the West City Gate, and one hundred of them will attack "Japanese artillery position" Li Yunlong said to the two of them.
"Yes" Song Qian and Zhang Dabiao agreed in unison.
"Second Battalion Commander, you take 900 people to the enemy behind the East Gate, and also send 100 people to attack the enemy's artillery position." Li Yunlong said.
"Understood" the second battalion commander nodded.
"Remember, we must attack almost simultaneously and strive to eliminate the Japs in the shortest possible time. Do not give the Japs time to react, let alone allow the Japs to escape," Li Yunlong warned.
As for him, Lao Qian and Lao Zhong,It is to direct the battle from the rear to avoid other accidents.
"Yes" several people nodded at the same time.
"We will set off the day after tomorrow. As for the soldiers who are acclimatized, some people will be left to take care of them." Li Yunlong said that although the rain will delay the Japanese attack time, it will not delay for too long.
"Yes." Everyone nodded.
At noon on the third day, the Japanese troops had divided into two groups and came to rest in the woods about 600 meters away from the east and west gates of Wu County.
As for the artillery, they all set up positions in the open space two miles away from the city gate.
"Let the soldiers eat and drink enough, and launch the first round of exploratory attack at two o'clock in the afternoon." In the tent, the Japanese Lieutenant Colonel ordered.
At this time, the east gate of Wu County.
In the command room, Zhao Chengxu and Chu Xu, the commander of the third regiment, were eating.
Suddenly, a soldier ran in.
"In the woods about 600 meters away from the city gate, there are traces of the Japanese, probably thousands of them." The soldier said.
"The devil has arrived." Chu Xu stood up.
“Why panic, we’ll be here when we get there. They should still need to rest and recuperate, and they won’t launch the attack until two o’clock at the earliest.
Let the soldiers eat and drink enough to prepare for the We'll have a fierce battle later," Zhao Chengxu said calmly while eating.
"Yes" Chu Xu nodded.
Soon, the phone on the table rang.
Zhao Chengxu answered the phone.
"Brigade, traces of Japs have been found at the West Gate. There are probably about a thousand people. Is there anything going on at the East Gate?" a regiment leader said on the phone.
"Well, I also have Japs here. It seems they are planning to attack the two city gates together. Please tell the soldiers not to be too nervous.
The Japs will not attack so quickly. Yes, let the soldiers eat and drink enough in the trenches first so that they can have the strength to deal with the Japanese," Zhao Chengxu ordered.
"Understood"
"Then do it." Zhao Chengxu hung up the phone. Not long after, he finished eating and walked to the city wall walkway with his binoculars.
He looked at the woods in the distance and could indeed see the Japanese, and there were quite a few of them.
He looked down at the soldiers in the trenches below the city.
The soldiers were eating dry food at the moment, and many of them were still chatting. Although they already knew that the Japanese were coming, they were not afraid at all and were still chatting about their parents' shortcomings.
"Brother, I have a sister who is as beautiful as a flower. I think you are a nice person. When I go back, I will introduce my sister to you. What do you think?"
"Look like this, that's a good relationship. Brother-in-law, please accept my brother-in-law's respect"
"Hahaha, easy to talk to, brother-in-law"
"Brother-in-law"
Time passed minute by minute, around 1:50.
About three hundred meters away from the city gate, a group of Japanese soldiers have arrived, as if they have already doneReady to attack.
"Let the soldiers prepare for defense. The Japs are going to bombard the position." On the walkway of the city wall, Zhao Chengxu took a telescope and saw that the Japs were not far away and immediately gave the order.
He knew very well that the Japanese were about to bombard the position. After bombarding the position, the Japanese not far away would launch an attack.
Ten minutes later, everything was as Zhao Chengxu expected, with shells hitting the position directly one after another.
Boom, boom, boom
More than twenty artillery shells exploded in the position, and the sound was deafening. For a time, many Sichuan soldiers were directly killed by the Japanese shells, and the soil was blown up. Splash up.
At the same time, there were also explosions from the west city gate.
After three rounds of bombing, more than 300 Japanese soldiers launched a direct attack on the East City Gate position.
"Pfft, the Japanese are coming. Be prepared. Don't be in a hurry and shoot closer." In the trench, Chu Xu spat out a mouthful of sand and gave the order quickly.
The soldiers' equipment was so poor that they had to put the Japanese closer and then shoot them. Otherwise, they would not be able to hit them at all.
Bang bang bang
Ta da da da
The Japanese fired fiercely at the enemy side, suppressing their firepower. After advancing a hundred meters, many of them carried The Japanese soldiers with grenade launchers began bombing the position again to cover the advance of the infantry.
Boom, boom, boom
Artillery shells fell on the position again. The Sichuan soldiers were bombed so hard that they could not find their way north. Many soldiers were killed or injured. Seriously injured and comatose.
"The damn devil actually brought so many weapons to attack." Zhao Chengxu's face turned green. He felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw his men being bombed by the Japanese.
If their equipment could be like other troops, they would be able to use mortars to blast the Japanese.
When the Japanese soldiers rushed forward fifty meters, they threw The bombs stopped bombing.
After several rounds of bombing, the Sichuan soldiers on the position also suffered heavy casualties.
A group of Japanese soldiers were still running towards the position, one hundred and fifty meters, one hundred and twenty meters, ninety meters, eighty meters.
"Hit" Chu Xu yelled, he took out his pistol and shot a Japanese to death directly.
At his order, other Sichuan soldiers also opened fire.
Soldiers on the walkway of the city wall also opened fire.
Bang bang bang
Da da da
The two sides were exchanging fire fiercely, but it was obvious that even if they were placed close, the bullets of the Sichuan soldiers would not have much impact. The enemy is a big enemy, just because the gun in his hand is really bad.
At such a close distance, you can't even hit the Japanese.
On the contrary, the Japanese's marksmanship was very accurate, almost hitting the target, and the Sichuan soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
"Fuck you, you little devil," a machine gunner yelled. He held the machine gun and kept shooting at the Japanese who were rushing over.
Puff puff puff
Four or five Japanese soldiers were beaten to death on the spot., and several Japanese soldiers were injured and fell to the ground.
The Sichuan soldier was shot in the head by a Japanese soldier before he finished firing a round of bullets.
The bullet passed through his head and spattered blood. His eyes widened, filled with unwillingness to kill more Japanese.
"Lao Liu" When the soldier not far away saw this scene, he roared sadly, and he rolled and crawled towards Lao Liu.
He didn't have time to check on Lao Liu's injuries, let alone feel sad, because the Japanese attack was very fierce. If there were no machine gun fire, the Japanese would quickly rush to the position.
Da da da
He picked up the machine gun and pointed it at the Japanese not far away. After firing a round of bullets, he hurriedly squatted down to change the magazine.
Immediately he ran to another location holding the machine gun, because the location just now was already targeted by the Japanese, and he would die if he showed up.
The Japanese attack was extremely fierce. A few minutes ago, they were eighty meters away. A few minutes later, they were almost within fifty meters.
Bang bang bang
Da da da
All the Sichuan soldiers were firing in an attempt to block the Japs' attack, but the Japs' marksmanship was too accurate.
In the distance, the Japanese Lieutenant Colonel held a telescope and stared at the situation on the battlefield.
Seeing the heavy casualties among the Sichuan soldiers, he smiled.
"Their weapons are indeed very poor. They can hardly hit anyone from a hundred meters away. Even their machine guns are very poor." Japanese Lieutenant Colonel laughed.
In this wave of tentative attacks, he has already seen the level of firepower of these Sichuan troops. It is indeed terrible. Compared with the firepower of the imperial soldiers, it is not even a bit worse.
Up to now, the Sichuan Army soldiers have suffered at least 200 casualties, while the Imperial soldiers have only suffered 200 or 30 casualties.
"Lieutenant Colonel, it looks like we can defeat Wu County in three days in less than a week." The Major on the side said.
In his opinion, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army were vulnerable and were unable to fight back after being beaten by the imperial soldiers
They could defeat Wuxian in three days at most.
On the battlefield, the gunfire continued.
Bang bang bang bang
Da da da da
Boom boom boom
The sound of gunfire, the sound of grenades exploding, and the soldiers' The sound of wailing filled the entire battlefield
"The weapons and equipment of the uncle are too bad." In the trench, Chu Xu was changing bullets for the pistol. The equipment was so bad that the soldiers could not fight at all. Hit the devil.
There were only a few who could hit the Japanese at close range. If there were not machine guns to suppress the approaching Japanese, these Japanese would have rushed in front of them in ten minutes.
Chu Xu felt very uncomfortable, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. They were all troops defending China, so why should they be treated differently in the national army?
How long has it been since then, and we are still engaging in these overt and covert fights? It's interesting, isn't it? It's interesting to send his soldiers to death, isn't it?
