Pan Ren, the commander of the puppet army, stood at the west city gate, watching the bullets flying randomly above his head, and he was almost scared to the point of peeing.

He had only been in office for less than an hour, and he had encountered such a level of siege battle, which was extremely frustrating.

The former company commander Hu Jixiang has not shown up yet. Could it be that he got the news of the Eighth Route Army's siege in advance and his feet were slipping?

Pan Ren couldn't help but cursed Hu Jixiang in his heart. He was really not a toy. He had to take his brothers with him if he wanted to escape!

But in this situation, if he didn't fight hard, Fujimoto would definitely be the first to kill him.

But he fought hard, and when the eight-pronged attack came in, he would still die.

He, if he dies anyway, he might as well fight!

As long as the Eighth Route Army cannot attack, they puppet troops still have a glimmer of hope.

"Brothers, fight with the Eighth Route Army!"

"If anyone doesn't fight hard, I will be the first to shoot him!"

Pan Ren held a shell gun and shouted loudly.

The puppet soldiers on the tower were holding light machine guns and shooting down desperately.

Bang! A puppet army machine gunner was shot in the head, and a bloody hole burst out in his forehead. The deputy shooter pushed the body away, picked up the light machine gun and started shooting again.

A puppet soldier with a bullet box on his shoulder hurriedly ran up the stairs of the city wall, preparing to deliver bullets to the Japanese machine gunners.

Wang Xikui held a Type 97 sniper rifle and pulled the trigger just as the puppet troops were about to run out of the crenel.

A high-speed spinning 65mm bullet hit the puppet soldier in the temple, punching through his head and falling at Pan Ren's feet.

Pan Ren's expression changed, he knelt down and shouted quickly: "There are sharpshooters on the 8th Route. If you don't want to die, don't show your face!"

The bullets hit the crenellations of the city wall and the roof tiles, making a crackling sound.

The Japanese and puppet soldiers on the city wall desperately pulled the triggers of their machine guns and pressed the iron to fight back, and patches of dirt mist bounced off the slopes.

"attack!"

"attack!"

Sou Fujimoto shuttled between the east, west, north and south walls, constantly issuing attack orders.

He thought that the Eighth Route Army would mainly attack the west gate and pretend to attack the other three directions.

But what Sou Fujimoto didn't expect was that the fighting in every direction was very fierce, and the battle became intense as soon as it started.

He concentrated half of his troops and firepower on the west gate, causing pressure in the other three directions to increase at the same time.

Fujimoto mentally cursed at the commander of the Eighth Route Army.

Surprisingly, all directions were main attacks, no feints.

Do you understand what tactics are?

In desperation, Fujimoto had no choice but to order mountain artillery and infantry artillery to be deployed on the four towers.

After all, every direction is important. If one direction is breached, the defenders in other directions will also be quickly wiped out.

"Report to the squadron leader!"

A Japanese soldier braved the hail of bullets and ran to Fujimoto with a telegram: "Commander Shinozuka and the brigade commander sent a telegram. Reinforcements are on their way. The First Army Air Force has set off to support us. Let us make sure

Hold on to Yushe County for 12 hours!"

Sou Fujimoto felt relieved. Fortunately, Commander Shinozuka did not give up on them.

With the support of the air force and holding on for 12 hours, Sou Fujimoto was still confident.

"Reply to Commander Shinozuka and the brigade commander, Fujimoto Squadron will hold the city for 12 hours until reinforcements arrive!"

"Hi!" The soldier nodded suddenly, turned around and ran towards the city.

…

Under the west city wall, a demolition crew from a special operations battalion struggled to climb close to the base of the city wall, dragging their legs broken by heavy machine guns.

Strings of grenades and grenades fell down, and before he could pull the fuse, he was overwhelmed by a series of explosions.

"grass!"

Third Company Commander Wang Xikuan punched the soil in front of him heavily. These blasters were all warriors of the Third Company.

Two groups of fifteen blasters totaled, and within twenty minutes, they were wiped out before they even got close to the city wall.

"Third group of blasters, come on!" Wang Xikuan gave the order with red eyes. If the third group of blasters also failed, he was ready to go in person.

"etc!"

"We can't do this anymore!"

The third group of eight blasters were holding explosive packs and grenades and were about to go up when they were stopped by Wei Dayong.

The two bunkers under the city wall have not been resolved. There are six machine gun fire points on the city wall. No matter how many people go up there, it will be for nothing.

The sacrifices of the first two groups of blasters were not without value, exposing all the firepower points on the city wall.

Wei Dayong called together the three company commanders, Zhang Qing, Meng Fugui and Wang Xikuan.

"There are a total of six machine gun fire points on the city wall. Have you all seen their locations clearly?" Wei Dayong asked.

The three company commanders nodded in unison.

"Okay, I'll number the six firepower points from left to right, firepower points 1 to 6 respectively."

"The first company is responsible for firepower point 1, 2, 3, and 4, the second company is responsible for firepower point 5, and the third company is responsible for firepower point 6."

"Tell the machine gunner to ignore other things and only aim at one fire point to suppress it!"

The first company is a machine gun company, and most of the light and heavy machine guns of the special operations battalion are in this company. There are more than twenty light and heavy machine guns in total.

The second company and the third company also had seven or eight machine guns respectively.

Zhang Qing immediately said: "That's great. If five or six machine guns hit a point of firepower, I don't believe we can't suppress it!"

"Distribute the firepower immediately!" Wei Dayong ordered.

"yes!"

After receiving the order, the three company commanders turned around and assigned tasks to the machine gunners in their companies.

"Where is Wang Chengzhu?" Wei Dayong turned around and asked, "Has the mortar position been constructed?"

"It will be ready soon!" Guard Liuzi replied.

Wei Dayong ordered: "Go and ask the artillerymen to bring the infantry artillery and mountain artillery to me!"

His location is on a reverse slope. It is difficult for the artillery on the tower to hit here, but the infantry artillery and mountain artillery can shoot very well.

Soon, the Type 94 mountain artillery and the Type 92 infantry artillery were pulled up by more than a dozen artillery battery soldiers.

After all, it was hundreds or even thousands of kilograms of stuff. We had been fighting here for a while before the artillery was pulled to the position.

Wei Dayong lay down behind the slope, closed one eye, and measured the distance to the bunker under the city wall with his thumb.

Then he personally shook the handle, adjusted the muzzle, and aimed the shooting elements at the bunker.

The gunner took the shells from the wooden box, and the other gunner took the shells, stuffed them into the barrel, and closed the gate.

The gunner knelt down on one knee: "Loading completed!"

Wei Dayong lay on the slope with sharp eyes: "Let go!"

The gunner of the special operations battalion immediately stepped forward and pulled the match rope.

The gun body shook violently, and a grenade shot into the sky and hit the bunker under the city wall.

Wei Dayong and the soldiers stared closely at the bunker opposite.

About two or three seconds later, there was a loud explosion on the city wall above the back of the bunker, with gravel and shrapnel flying everywhere.

The entire city wall was shaken slightly by the explosion!

Missed!

After looking at the point of impact, Wei Dayong readjusted the muzzle elevation.

The shell rushed out of the barrel, streaked across the sky, and flew towards the bunker again.

Accompanied by violent fires and explosions, the bunker on the left was instantly blown to pieces.
Chapter completed!
