The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 1161 Brigade Commander: We won (first update)

Former Japanese Army Xiongxian Garrison Headquarters.

The phone rings one after another, constantly ringing in the war room.

Several soldiers were too busy to listen. As soon as they put down the phone, new calls came in.

"Deputy Chief of Staff, the temporary third battalion defending the south of the city reports that they have successfully repelled the first Japanese attack." A soldier put down the microphone and hurriedly reported to Cannonball Huang Yu.

"The Japanese suffered more than 300 casualties, but we also lost more than 100 soldiers. The troops are hiding from the shelling behind the city wall, waiting for the second Japanese attack."

Huang Yu kept his eyes on the city defense map, without even raising his head, and asked directly: "How has the city defense fortifications been destroyed? How many percent of the fortifications can still be used?"

The soldier obviously understood the situation on the phone and replied: "The situation is very bad."

"The Japanese artillery fire was not only fierce, but the shells hitting the city were also very accurate."

"The first round of artillery fire blasted out the four gaps in the city wall we had just repaired in the south of the city."

"The current artillery coverage mainly destroys our newly exposed machine gun fire points."

"The bunkers were all made of sandbags and collapsed as soon as they exploded. More than 30% of the fortifications have been destroyed."

"But Commander Wang of the Third Battalion assured the headquarters that he was confident that he would use the remaining fortifications at the top of the city to block another three attacks by the Japanese and puppet troops."

Huang Yu shook his head and refused: "No..."

"If the fight continues, the Japanese and puppet troops attacking us outside the city will be beaten."

"I don't want the Japanese and puppet troops attacking us outside the city to notice something is wrong as soon as the battle begins, and then give up the attack."

"Then this trap we carefully prepared will be in vain."

"You call Battalion Commander Wang immediately..."

"After the next round of Japanese and puppet attacks began, the troops relied on the city defenses to kill more than 200 little Japs and then began to retreat."

"Alternate cover and abandon the city head, let the Japanese and puppet siege troops enter the city, and use the street fighting fortifications in the city to block the little Japanese who enter the city."

The commander of the fifth regiment temporarily served as Huang Yu's deputy. He hesitated and reminded: "Deputy chief of staff..."

"Then should we also issue retreat orders to the other three temporary battalions?"

"Let them severely inflict heavy damage on the second wave of Japanese attacking troops, abandon the city defenses together, and withdraw into the city to fight street battles with the Japanese and puppet troops."

Huang Yu shook his head again: "They can't withdraw..."

"If the four temporary battalions withdrew into the city at the same time to fight street battles with the Japanese and puppet siege troops, it would arouse suspicion among the little Japs, and the gains would outweigh the losses."

"Judging from the offensive of the Japanese and puppet troops and the intensity of their artillery fire, the south of the city is the main direction of attack by the Japanese and puppet troops, with the largest concentration of artillery and offensive troops."

"We withstood their two attacks, but because the casualties were too great, we abandoned the city and retreated to the city to fight with them in the streets. It is reasonable and reasonable."

"There are not many Japanese and puppet troops attacking from the other three directions, and the siege artillery fire is just that. Let alone two attacks by the Japanese and puppet troops, it will be no problem to withstand five or six more attacks."

"As long as we open a small opening at the top of the city and let the Japanese and puppet troops outside the city see the hope of conquering Xiong County, the other troops can fight as they want without any drama."

…………

“Boom, boom, boom… da da da… dong dong dong…”

The sounds of firefights that must be familiar to Major General Biancheng soon resounded on the battlefield south of the city.

Facing the dozens of new firepower points emerging from the city, Major General Cheng frowned, but did not get angry.

Because judging from the distribution of firepower points, all the firepower points exposed by the Eighth Route Army in the previous round of firefighting disappeared, indicating that the artillery preparations just now were effective.

As long as the artillery troops continue to work hard and continue to destroy the firepower points where the Eighth Route Army is firing, the siege troops will be unstoppable and march all the way into Xiong County along the gap in the city wall. Staring at the city head that was constantly spitting out tongues of flame, he ordered with murderous intent: "Keep firing artillery, increase the firepower output, don't be afraid of accidentally injuring the attacking troops, destroy all the firepower points on the city head as quickly as possible, quickly..."

"Boom boom boom..."

A thunderous explosion soon sounded on top of the city.

The fire was flying, and the brigade commander, Major General Biancheng, could clearly see the Eighth Route Army and its light machine guns being blown away.

The heavy machine gun bullets fired by the attacking troops flew close to the gap in the battlements that had been blown up on the top of the city, killing the Eighth Route Army troops who might be exposed.

After a while, the blocking fire points on the city were reduced by nearly half.

The attacking troops also rushed to a position thirty or forty meters away from the city head.

"Boom boom boom..."

A string of grenades was suddenly thrown down from the top of the city. Many soldiers in the attacking force were enveloped in the smoke from the explosion, and their lives and deaths were unknown.

But on a battlefield with a frontal width of more than 300 meters, the explosive power of dozens of grenades is obviously not enough to block hundreds of attacking troops.

Before the explosion was completely over, Major General Biancheng saw several of his men rushing out of the smoke, holding rifles and roaring towards a gap in the city wall.

The hands of Major General Biancheng turned into fists unconsciously, and I silently prayed in my heart that they would rush faster.

As long as they successfully rush into the gap and occupy a gap, the subsequent offensive troops will continue to advance into Xiong County.

"Da da da……"

At the critical moment, two light machine guns suddenly emerged from the gap, and bullets flew towards the soldiers in a crossfire.

They had no way to hide and were beaten into pieces in an instant.

The brigade commander, Major General Biancheng, had a look of disappointment on his face.

Just when he thought the attack in front of him was going to be hopeless again, the gap in the city wall where two light machine guns had just emerged suddenly burst into flames. An Eighth Route Army machine gunner was blown away in the explosion, and the machine gun fire suddenly stopped at this moment. Stop.

"Well done to the grenadier soldiers..." Major General Biancheng couldn't help shouting in his heart.

Then he turned his attention back to the gap, hoping that a few more soldiers would break through the Eighth Route Army's grenade interception, take the opportunity to rush into the gap, and tear a breach in the Eighth Route Army's city defenses.

"Kill me..."

As if they heard the call from the border town major general, more than a dozen little devils rushed out of the smoke and went straight to the gap in the city wall.

This time they were not attacked again.

With divine help, the dozen or so Japanese soldiers rushed to the gap easily.

Several Japanese soldiers guarded the gap and opened fire into the city. The remaining soldiers split into two and quickly climbed up to the top of the city. They attacked the remaining Eighth Route Army on the top of the city and expanded the breach to allow more soldiers to rush to the top of the city.

Seeing this scene, Major General Biancheng finally relaxed his tense nerves.

He breathed a sigh of relief and ordered: "As long as the attacking troops completely occupy the gap and advance into Xiong County, we will win this battle."

"Let the attacking troops move faster and don't miss this good opportunity to seize Xiong County."

The chief of staff understood and immediately asked the Major General of the Border City for instructions: "I will arrange two more infantry squadrons to press forward."

"After occupying the city head, the main force of the offensive troops marched into Xiongxian County to attack the Eighth Route Army headquarters. The subsequent two squadrons were divided into two and attacked along the city wall to the east and west of the city. They cooperated with the feign attack troops there to eliminate the Eighth Route Army's deployment in the city. All troops above our heads.”
