Chapter 114: Bloody Battle with Old Street (IV)

Amid the roar of the twelve 38 75mm field cannons commanded by Ono Nagashima, Japanese infantry began to enter the old street with neat steps. In addition to the fierce attack on the main street, about two brigades of Japanese soldiers began to climb over the wall and enter dense houses from the left and right wings of the street.

Hu Zhenglong, who was commanding defense operations in the front of the old street, was stunned when he heard the roar of Japanese field artillery and the sharp whistling of ballistics. The Japanese gun seemed to be too close, right? Could it be that the Japanese were stunned? Move the gun into the range of our artillery fire?

Some of the frightened and lost the calm and composed style of a soldier, Matsuda Kosan was enjoying a rare cup of hot tea at this moment. The strict orders of the commander of the Matsumoto Matsuda Kosan were very grateful. Although hiding behind and commanding the troops on the phone was not honored, it felt safe compared to it. Only those who truly felt struggling on the brink of life and death knew the value of life. Anyone's life is independent and has no repetition. Matsuda Kosan was very clear about this. The feeling that he could die at any time in the next second almost made Matsuda Kosan almost collapse!

Now when I think of Akihiro Imago's white brain mixed with blood, Matsuda Kiyomi felt chill all over, as if he was naked in the snow and trembling.

On the streets of the old street, the Japanese infantry began to scatter into a formation of scattered soldiers after entering the streets for 100 meters. In fact, there was only a bluestone road less than seven meters wide and more than one mile long. It was slightly curved. Generally, it was forgotten to be low at first glance. The Japanese army knew very well that the Chinese soldiers must have dug up their positions and waited for them on the other end of the street. All they had to do was to directly break through the Chinese army's blockade after artillery fire. Only when the faster they broke through the Chinese army's blockade, the smaller the casualties of the troops would be.

When Japanese soldiers filled the streets densely with densely filled with them and entered the range of 200 meters, Hu Zhenglong personally picked up a Czech light machine gun and began to shoot fiercely. Then more than a dozen Maxine machine guns formed two firepower networks to cross-strike the Japanese army in the old streets.

After the Japanese officers and soldiers who were shot fell to the ground, a roar broke out in the Japanese army. Then the Japanese infantry entered an attacking and attacking posture. The Japanese soldiers holding a cold light flashed bayonet under the leadership of the officers howled and rushed to the Chinese defenders' positions in the rain of bullets. The bullets fired by Maxin's heavy machine guns were like locusts to hit the Japanese army head-on. The Japanese attack formation was dispersed in a few seconds. The Japanese soldiers who were shot and fell to the ground were stepped on by followers. The Japanese soldiers who had just passed the body of their companions were shot and fell to the ground again. The bodies of the Japanese soldiers were stacked like paving the road.

Many Japanese soldiers were surprised to find that something seemed to be under their feet? It made it difficult for them to stand firm? A Japanese lieutenant who fell to the ground touched the ground and saw that it was a bean. Before the Japanese lieutenant could understand the purpose of the bean, a bloody hole was punched out by a flying bullet on his forehead. There was only a bullet hole the size of a thumb in front of his forehead, but the spoon on the back of his head had been blown away by the bullet.

Once the feet of the Japanese soldiers who were stepping on the corpse of their companions fell to the ground, they would fall to the ground in different postures without any preparation. Chinese soldiers specially selected the fallen Japanese soldiers to fight, and each one was accurate! The wide old street has become a massacre site, and two brigades of Japanese officers and soldiers were crowded in it and became the best target.

The Japanese soldiers who were hopeless in attack began to try to rush into the shops on both sides, but what shocked the Japanese soldiers was that the shops on both sides were still motionless, both the doors and windows. The panicked Japanese officers and soldiers became targets on the streets. Some Japanese soldiers even used grenades to blow up the doors and windows that were motionless with grenades. As a result, the doors and windows exploded, but also affected many friendly officers and soldiers nearby.

When the doors and windows of the merchants were blown away, the Japanese officers and soldiers were stunned and fell into panic and despair. The wooden doors and windows were actually closed walls with bluestones? This was a pre-slaughter site for the Chinese army. The subsequent Japanese troops were still advancing. The fierce Japanese troops began to retreat one after another, but the attacking crowds collided with the retreating one after another. At a distance of 300 meters, more than ten Maksin heavy machine guns and more than twenty Czech light machine guns beat the Japanese soldiers entangled in the old streets to death.

The shell dropped beside the Maxine heavy machine gun was filled with smoke. The deputy shooter stared at the canvas chain nervously. The recoil generated by each firing of the linkage mechanism drove the shell pulling hook to repeatedly move. The empty shell was thrown out and the bullet was loaded. The bullet fired brought a burst of blood mist among the Japanese crowd.

The dense sound of the old street, the sound of heavy machine gun shooting and the chaos of the subsequent attacking troops made Ono Nagashima know that the attack on the front must have been set. Sure enough, with the news that the 45th infantry rebel transferred from the brigade headquarters failed, Ono Nagashima immediately ordered the deputy captain of the captain Nomura to organize artillery fire support, and Ono Nagashima himself was like a hardworking little groundhog, trying hard to dig his own bunker!

Boom! Boom! Boom! After a dense bombardment, smoke from the Chinese defenders' positions rolled and shrapnel flew wildly. At least two Maxine heavy machine guns were destroyed by Japanese artillery fire. The sound of the cannons was so close? But the fire position was only heard and the sound of the cannons was not seen?

Several consecutive groups of artillery observation posts moved their positions repeatedly before finally discovering the location of the Japanese artillery. Hu Zhenglong held a telescope and under the guidance of the artillery observer, he found the location of the Japanese artillery. In the cold weather, the fog and smoke emitted by the huge heat generated by artillery shooting were exposed. Hu Zhenglong did not expect that the Japanese would set the artillery position in the depression at the south end of the street.

When he learned that the Japanese artillery position was actually set under his eyelids, Zhang Tianpeng, who was furious, immediately coordinated two artillery groups to carry out artillery fire strikes on the depression where the Japanese artillery group was located.

Soon, the Japanese officers and soldiers of the first brigade of the Field Artillery Corps of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army were busy, and the artillery soldiers knew very well that it was the sound of the artillery shells breaking through the air.

Boom! A 75mm grenade blew up a flying dust after the flash of explosion. Then the shells roared and fell to the ground like raindrops. The sounds of explosions rose and fell. Amid the series of explosions, the Japanese artillery was running and trying to escape. Obviously, facing the wanton shrapnel, the escape of the Japanese soldiers had no meaning.

In fact, the terrain of the depression gave the Japanese army an illusion that it was like rain. The artillery group commanded and coordinated by Zhang Tianpeng only carried out five rapid fires at one time. In Zhang Tianpeng's view, the Japanese army, as a small depression, only stuffed more than a dozen 75mm field cannons, and a burst of shells would be enough to smash him into pieces!

The shells that were exploding for death were as dazzling as fireworks. The Japanese soldiers in dilemma once again brought out the rogue tactics of their guardians and used corpses to build city walls to resist the fierce projection firepower. The reason why the Japanese offensive troops on the main street were not resilient was actually creating fighter jets for the two teams breaking through the two wings.

The dark-faced Kurosan Matsuda no longer answered the calls from the frontline. His order to Yoshida Nakasa Yoshida's acting captain of the 45th Infantry Regiment was to attack, attack, attack! To cleanse the shame of the 45th Infantry Regiment.

Because in the view of Matsuda Kiyomi, as long as the front of the old street attracts the forces and firepower of the Chinese army's main position, the two brigades that interspersed from the flanks will definitely receive miraculous results!
