In the admiring eyes of the artillerymen nearby, Wei Dayong lowered the barrel of the cannon.

It is feasible to fire the gun directly from the barrel without the need for a gun mount and base.

During the People's Liberation Army's military training in 1956, some artillerymen demonstrated it.

The individual soldiers of the People's Liberation Army who have been baptized by the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea have an extremely high level of individual quality and can be called the strongest on the planet.

This highly difficult level of mortar firing can only be accomplished by expert gunners.

Wang Chengzhu's mortar technology has been upgraded to the [Legendary] level just like Wei Dayong.

At present, only Wei Dayong and Wang Chengzhu in the special operations camp can do this.

However, Wei Dayong is confident that before long, all the artillerymen in the special operations battalion will be master artillerymen.

Wei Dayong and Wang Chengzhu walked forward with sniper rifles, and Xu Zhigeng took the initiative to greet them.

Xu Zhigeng said: "Reporting to the Chief of Staff, Company Commander Wang, I am Xu Zhigeng, platoon leader of the 1st Platoon of the 5th Company of the 2nd Battalion!"

Naturally, Xu Zhigeng and Wei Dayong knew this guy. In the original drama, Li Yunlong praised him for having a telescope with a power greater than that of the group leader in Zhaojiayu.

"Xu Zhigeng." Wei Dayong nodded and asked, "Where is your battalion commander?"

"Our battalion commander is on the street on the left." Xu Zhigeng said, "The troops have all dispersed and are fighting against the Japanese and puppet troops!"

"Your platoon has suffered a lot of casualties." Wei Dayong looked at it and said, "Take the wounded back to the city wall to rest, and I will send soldiers from the special operations battalion to top it."

"Yes!" Xu Zhigeng straightened up.

Wei Dayong is now the chief of staff of the independent regiment, and even battalion commander Shen Quan obeys his orders. Xu Zhigeng naturally obeys orders.

"Platoon 1, bring the wounded!" Xu Zhigeng waved his rifle and shouted, "Withdraw!"

Xu Zhigeng's soldiers then carried their guns and carried the wounded back.

Wei Dayong shouted: "2nd company commander!"

2nd company commander Meng Fugui said: "Yes!"

Wei Dayong said: "Your 2nd company continues to attack along this street!"

"Yes!" Meng Fugui carried out Wei Dayong's order without compromise.

"Zilla." Wei Dayong said again, "Leave an infantry gun and a mortar for the 2nd Company."

The artillery battalion is on its way. When the artillery joins the street fighting, the Japanese and puppet troops will suffer.

"The rest follow me!"

Wei Dayong took the 1st and 3rd companies, as well as the artillery battery, and turned in from the alley on the left.

As soon as he passed through the alley, he saw Shen Quan commanding a company to attack the Japanese and puppet troops on the opposite side.

Bowing to Shen Quan's side, Wei Dayong raised his gun and pulled the trigger towards the puppet army's firepower point on the opposite side.

Bang! After a gunshot, the bullet penetrated the puppet machine gunner's eyebrows and took off the puppet machine gunner's cap.

A puppet machine gunner fell down. Just as the puppet machine gun deputy picked up the light machine gun, another bullet shot through his head.

None of the nearby puppet troops dared to take care of the light machine gun, and they all huddled behind the bunker.

"Good shot!" Shen Quan fired two shots across the street, cheered loudly, and then turned around to see which sharpshooter from the Second Battalion did it.

Seeing this, Shen Quan was stunned on the spot: "Chief of Staff? You...why are you wearing this clothes?"

Looking behind, I saw a thick crowd of soldiers from the special operations battalion wearing national army uniforms, some of whom were coming from the alley.

"Borrow the uniforms of the Chinese prisoners of war." Wei Dayong said, "Second Battalion Commander, how is the situation here?"

"Report to the Chief of Staff, the resistance from the Japanese and puppet troops is fierce." Shen Quan said, "But our 2nd Battalion can still withstand it!"

The 2nd Independent Division of the Puppet Army followed the Japanese in raiding base areas many times, and its combat effectiveness was not comparable to that of other miscellaneous puppet troops that were on the verge of collapse.

This is also the reason why Shinozuka Yoshio placed the 2nd Division around Taiyuan and then transferred it to Taiyuan City for garrison.

Wei Dayong asked: "Where is the 1st Battalion?"

Chen Quan said: "Battle Commander Zhang led the 1st Battalion to attack the arsenal!"

Wei Dayong took out a simple map of Taiyuan city, which was drawn based on puppet prisoners, and marked the location of the arsenal.

The arsenal is at No. 101 Victory Street in the outer city, while the Japanese arsenal and grain depot are in the inner city.

As soon as the elite 1st Battalion of the Independent Regiment entered the city, they rushed towards the arsenal.

This place is still some distance away from the arsenal, but Wei Dayong can judge the general direction of the arsenal, and judging from the sound of gunfire, the battle there is also very fierce.

Wei Dayong immediately decided to lead his troops to support the 1st Battalion in capturing the arsenal.

"Commander of the 2nd Battalion, the artillery battalion is on the way." Wei Dayong said, "Our special operations battalion will go to support the 1st Battalion first."

"Yes!" Shen Quan was slightly happy when he heard this, "When the artillery battalion comes up, the good days of the Japanese and puppet troops will be over!"

Wei Dayong identified a direction and shouted loudly: "Special Operations Battalion, follow me!"

He then walked back, followed immediately by Duan Peng, Wang Gensheng, Wang Xikui and a group of soldiers from the special operations battalion.

The entire southern part of the city was reduced to a state of chaos, fighting broke out in every street, and gunshots sounded like exploding beans everywhere.

…

On Shengli West Street, Zhang Dabiao led a battalion to storm the arsenal first.

About two squads of Japanese soldiers were fighting stubbornly by virtue of their favorable positions in the arsenal.

When they first rushed into the city, neither the Japanese nor the puppet troops reacted. The first battalion was led by the puppet prisoners.

Weaving through five or six streets at an extremely fast speed, we finally arrived at the arsenal.

However, the Japanese firepower in the arsenal was very fierce, including not only light and heavy machine gun firepower, but also mountain artillery, field artillery and mortars. There seemed to be endless bullets and artillery shells.

The Japanese used machine gun positions built with sandbags and heavy firepower on the roof of the building, causing the 1st Battalion to suffer heavy losses.

Most of the two waves of 1st Battalion soldiers who charged towards the arsenal fell on the way to the charge.

What's even more terrible is that Japanese and puppet reinforcements arrived, blocked the front and rear intersections of Victory Street, and stormed towards the 1st Battalion.

The 1st Battalion was originally going deep alone, but now it was caught in the enemy's attack from three sides, and the situation became extremely anxious.

Zhang Dabiao pushed away the machine gunner, took up a Czech light machine gun and shot personally at the Japanese and puppet soldiers who were rushing over.

The soldiers of the 1st Battalion on the street opened fire together, and the Japanese and puppet soldiers who were about to charge immediately fell to the ground and retreated hastily.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Looking at the retreating Japanese and puppet troops, Zhang Dabiao breathed a sigh of relief. This was already the third attack by the enemy.

The 1st company commander came up with a Jin-made Thompson submachine gun: "Battalion Commander, why don't we break out first!"

Zhang Dabiao's entire face was completely black from the smoke. His eyes flickered and his tone was unquestionable: "No, we must capture the arsenal. This is an order!"

The first company commander looked anxious: "But...but we are now surrounded by enemies from three sides, and the casualties are too high!"

"Tell the brothers to hold on!" Zhang Dabiao said sternly, "Backup will be coming soon!"

"Battal Commander, I'm afraid there won't be any support!" said the first company commander, "Even the reserve team of the 3rd Battalion has joined the battle, how can there be any support?"

"I said yes, it's true, what nonsense are you talking about?" Zhang Dabiao fired a shot across the street with his light machine gun, and the few Japanese and puppet soldiers who poked their heads out were immediately pushed back.

"Yes!" The first company commander straightened his body, bowed and moved towards the position at the end of the street with his submachine gun in hand.

"Batalion Commander, the enemy is attacking again!" a soldier shouted.

Zhang Dabiao poked half of his head out, and sure enough he saw the Japanese and puppet soldiers crouching down and organizing their attack again, shouting: "Save ammunition, put the enemy closer and then fight!"

After retracting his head into the bunker, the ammunition hand handed over a full magazine. Zhang Dabiao took it and inserted it into the light machine gun. The bullet was loaded with a clatter, and then he observed the distance between the Japanese and the puppet soldiers through the gaps in the sandbags.

At this moment, gunshots like exploding beans suddenly sounded across the street.

Only the sound of gunshots was heard, but no one was seen.

The attacking Japanese and puppet troops suddenly panicked and turned their guns one after another.

Zhang Dabiao looked happy, support is coming!

"Hit!" He then picked up the light machine gun and placed it on the sandbag, shooting violently at the back of the Japanese and puppet soldiers.

The soldiers of the 1st Battalion poked their heads out from behind the bunker, set up their submachine guns, rifles and light machine guns, and pulled the triggers.

The bullets were sprayed like a rain of bullets, and the blood mist was splashed. The Japanese and puppet soldiers were shot in the back and fell to pieces.

It was the special operations battalion that came to support at the critical moment.

Although they encountered several waves of enemies on the way here, they were quickly broken through by the special operations battalion and killed all the way.

Seeing the backs of the Japanese and puppet troops exposed, Wei Dayong gave the order to attack without hesitation.

Light machine guns and submachine guns opened the way, and the Japanese and puppet soldiers who were caught off guard were directly blindsided.

In less than 3 minutes, more than 300 Japanese and puppet soldiers who besieged the 1st Battalion West Street were all shot to death under the attack of two gates.

The whole street was covered with the corpses of Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers.

At the street corner, behind a huge stone pillar.

Wei Dayong didn't stick his head out and shouted loudly: "Is Zhang Dabiao, commander of the 1st Battalion of the Independent Regiment here?"
