The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

The city defense troops blocked the Eighth Route Army's attacking troops with artillery fire, and the artillery bombardment alone could cause heavy casualties to the subordinates, not to mention the losses caused to the subordinates by the close combat between the two sides after the Eighth Route Army rushed to the foot of the city wall.

With a shiver of his body, the telescope held in front of him almost fell to the ground in fright.

"Captain..." The squadron leader who had just reminded himself that he could not retreat spoke again.

"The Eighth Route Army is about to reach the foot of the city wall... We must find a way to stop them, otherwise the Eighth Route Army will definitely use explosives to destroy the city wall and blow up a gap..."

The captain gritted his teeth and ordered: "All troops defend the top of the city, and all light and heavy machine guns and grenades fire..."

"Block the Eighth Route Army's offensive at all costs, and never let them get close to the city wall."

After speaking, he quickly moved to the back of another battlement, and continued to observe the Eighth Route Army outside the city through the shooting holes.

"Boom boom boom..."

Explosions continued to ring in his ears, and soldiers were constantly being killed and blown upside down. The captain was heartbroken watching it.

In order not to affect his thoughts, he resolutely chose not to look back.

In this way, you can keep out of sight and out of mind, and change your style of play at any time according to changes in the enemy's situation.

"Da da da... dong dong dong..."

The light and heavy machine guns on the top of the city finally joined the battle.

It is a pity that the Eighth Route Army took the lead with chariots.

The bullet hit the protective armor of the chariot, except for arousing a lot of sparks, it couldn't hurt them at all.

It was like scratching an itch, whether the chariot should move forward or continue to move forward.

The captain was so angry that he was cursing his mother, but as the best commander of the city defense force in the west of the city, he must remain rational at all times and not show the slightest panic.

Otherwise, the morale of the garrison in the west of the city will definitely be affected.

While observing the battle situation, he ordered: "Notify the infantry artillery squadron behind, the mortar squadron..."

"Put the artillery directly on the top of the city..."

"Infantry guns aimed directly at tanks and armored vehicles outside the city..."

"The mortars were aimed at the infantry behind the tanks..."

"Without infantry covering the attack, no matter how powerful the chariot is, it is impossible to break through the west of the city and enter Taiyuan by yourself..."

"Boom boom boom..."

The sound of explosions kept ringing in the captain's ears, and the sound of light and heavy machine gun fire on the city's head was also continuously muted during the explosion.

In a short while, the top of the city was bombed to pieces, and there were corpses and wounded everywhere.

There are also a large number of stumps and broken arms scattered in it, and the ground at the top of the city is stained red with blood.

In addition to the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, there was the choking smell of blood. Even the battle-tested captain couldn't help but frowned.

"Boom..."

Two long-lost cannon shots finally sounded in the captain's ears, and the shells flew out of the city with a scream.

The only two infantry guns that could threaten the safety of the chariot were finally sent to the top of the city and fired at the chariot together.

The explosion soon sounded in the middle of the attacking troops. A shell hit the target, and the moment the flames splashed, the tank stopped and remained motionless...

Another shell landed near the tank. Although it didn't hurt the tank, it knocked over several infantrymen following it.

"Well fried..."

This was the first good news the captain had seen since he was attacked, and he punched the battlements excitedly, looking forward to the order: "Keep firing..."

"Give me the names of the chariots outside the city one by one..."

"Why isn't the mortar squadron running yet?"

"The infantry artillery is so heavy that it is set up, what are they doing for food..."

"Tom tom tom..."

The long-awaited call came out, and the dull sound of mortar fire finally rang in the ears of the captain.

Several balls of flames immediately burst into the middle of the Eighth Route Army's offensive troops. Five or six soldiers were blown up together, and more soldiers were blown over.

The captain was very excited to see it again.

As long as the two artillery units can continue to bomb, in less than 2 minutes, the Eighth Route Army will withdraw from the battle due to too many casualties, and the west of the city will be held.

the more you hope, the harder you fall.

When the captain had great expectations for the artillery, the familiar explosion sound reached the captain's ears again, and the impact point was very close to him. If he hadn't squatted in the corner of the city wall, the flying shell fragments would definitely hit him.

The captain subconsciously looked towards the impact point, and the two mortar teams that had just moved to the top of the city were also covered by artillery fire.

Seven or eight gunners were all blown up, one mortar was erected on the top of the city intact, and one mortar was blown up...

The enthusiasm and excitement that had just been aroused were instantly hit, and he said with a frustrated face: "The Eighth Route Army's artillery fire is too fierce..."

"Our artillery will be targeted as soon as they fire...they must evacuate immediately..."

The adjutant immediately reminded: "What about the chariots attacking us outside the city and the hundreds of Eighth Route Army..."

"Without artillery cover, rifles alone can't stop them at all."

The captain is also a little confused.

Reason told him that the artillery cannot be withdrawn. This is the only way to deal with the Eighth Route Army tanks.

But emotionally, he didn't want his remaining trump card to be used as a living target by the artillery of the Eighth Route Army and wiped out bit by bit on the top of the city.

While hesitating, the attacking force had reached more than 100 meters outside the city.

The remaining eleven chariots stopped suddenly.

Vehicle-mounted machine guns, artillery, and infantry behind the chariots... all poured bullets towards the city, as if they wanted to use the chariots as mobile firepower points.

The captain thought it was God helping him, and the opportunity to hold the top of the city came, so he looked happy and hurriedly ordered.

"Such a good chariot is used as a mobile firepower point, it's too reckless..."

"Don't move the artillery first..."

"No matter how powerful the chariot is, it is still a fixed target when it stops."

"Hurry up and seize the opportunity to kill them... Hurry up and fire..."

"Boom boom boom..."

The second round of shells flew out of the city quickly, and this time another tank was destroyed.

After firing a shot, the devil gunner quickly adjusted the shooting crew and aimed the muzzle at another tank...

"Boom boom boom..."

Just as he was about to fire the cannon, there was an explosion sound from the back of the chariot one step ahead. Under the darkness of night, more than a dozen balls of flames shot out from the ground like fireworks.

"It's Feilei Cannon... Everyone, get down quickly... Cover your ears, open your mouth, and keep your body close to the ground..." A well-informed squadron leader cried out.

At the same time, he threw himself on the ground and performed the action he just said as if performing it.

"Rumble..."

The explosive package rolled and hit the top of the city, and a thunderous explosion sounded at the same time, with flames splashing and thick smoke billowing.

The soldiers next to the impact point were directly blown away, and the stumps and broken arms were scattered everywhere.

The devil who was further away was blown away, and landed as a corpse that could not die anymore.

The captain was lucky.

The dynamite package that hit him just passed over his head and exploded behind the city wall.

Although he was not fatally injured, the powerful shock wave still made his internal organs tumbling continuously, his ears buzzing, and he almost passed out.
