The Strongest Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 260 Turning the Tide of the Battle and Mobilizing the Whole Body
"But...but this is the order of Colonel Hashimoto!" The officer looked at Abe helplessly, obviously there was nothing he could do. You must know that this matter cannot be solved by their subordinates, so he could only do this said.

"He asked me to defend PY City, how can I defend without the original? I ask you how to defend without reinforcements?" Abe yelled at the officer, then tried his best to suppress his temper, and said to the officer, "Give the bridge Colonel Ben continued to send telegrams, saying that our outer positions have fallen, and now we are retreating to the city to deploy defenses, the situation is very urgent, and we ask for support!"

"Ha Yi!" The officer immediately stood up straight, bowed and nodded respectfully to Abe, then turned and walked towards the inside of the tower.

"The devil has already retreated into the city, what should we do next?" The scholar saw that the little devil had already retreated into the city, so he said to Shen Sanduo, he wanted to know how Shen Sanduo should react to the change of the devil in front of him response?

"Now send two brothers to stand guard at a position ten miles away from Jinwan Town. After seeing the large army of devils retreating, they will immediately take a small road and report to me!" Shen Sanduo said immediately after hearing this, "Other troops will enter immediately. The devil's city defense position, the artillery position moved forward 50 meters, let me continue the shelling!"

"Master, this is going to continue to increase the fire, so that the little devil will believe that we are really going to attack the city!" Hearing Shen Sanduo's order, the six sons seemed to have fully understood Shen Sanduo's plan at the moment.

"That's right, that's what I mean!" Shen Sanduo said without denying, "Listen to me, you two, entering the devil's city defense position is just to strengthen the sense of oppression against the little devil, so you must obediently give me Hide behind the bunker and shoot, no one can rush out!"

"Yes!" The scholar and the six sons responded immediately. Now that they understood Shen Sanduo's meaning, they naturally had to implement it unconditionally, so none of them objected. After the answer, the six sons continued, "I will Arrange two brothers to go to Jinwan Town to monitor the actions of the little devil!"

"Okay!" Shen Sanduo said immediately after hearing this, "Brothers, act immediately, and don't give the little devil any time to breathe!"

Following Shen Sanduo's order, all the brothers started their first charge on the devil's position, and the target was the empty position left after the little devil's retreat.

When the team charged forward, the brothers of the artillery platoon moved forward 50 meters according to the order, and began to assume mortars and place shell boxes. , each combat unit quickly entered a state of readiness.

Seeing that the troops were ready, the six sons immediately ordered the artillery platoon leader to give an order to continue shelling on the tower.For a moment, shells from more than a dozen mortars hit the tower of the east gate like raindrops in a rainstorm, and a thunderous explosion exploded on the tower in an instant. The powerful shock wave sent Shuichi Abe, who was commanding the battle on the tower, and several officers charged at the same time. When they fell on the ground, the air like a tsunami formed huge waves, and continued to impact towards the outside of the tower along the direction in which they fell to the ground.

"Baga!" Abe got up from the ground of the city wall after the shock wave, and roared angrily, "Where did the Chinese get so many shells?"

"Your Majesty, the imperial army's equipment should not be inferior to that of the Chinese army. Why don't our artillery return fire?" At this time, a staff officer under Abe asked in puzzlement. The number of casualties continued to increase after the battle continued. increase, but he didn't see the return fire from a mortar on his side, so he asked in surprise.

"Baga! If we have artillery, is the upper China army arrogant here?" Abe said with a depressed mind, "Master Hashimoto thinks that the New Fourth Army dealing with Jinwan Town should not be underestimated, so he brought all the heavy firepower, Not a single steel cannon was left for us!"

"That's really terrible!" Hearing this, the staff officer was very surprised, but besides the surprise, he was more helpless. After all, such a big city was garrisoned by the regular troops in their hands. The attack by the main force of China will have no ability to resist, not to mention that the heavy machine guns in their hands were almost lost in the first round of shelling by the Chinese army. Now except for crooked light machine guns, the remaining The [-]-type rifles and grenades were the only ones that were released, so he felt that they were facing a great crisis at this time, and they might lose all the cities.

"Send a telegram to Colonel Hashimoto, urging for reinforcements, and report the crisis situation here verbatim!" Abe also knew that going on like this was not an option, but right now he had no choice but to ask for reinforcements, so He could only ask his staff to send a telegram to Hashimoto again.

"Hayi!" The staff officer said immediately after hearing the order, "Then what if Hashimoto still insists on us defending without reinforcements?"

"Then I can only leapfrog the level and report the situation of PY to the head of the brigade commanding the battle in Wuhan!" Abe seems to have made a lot of determination this time. He can't watch PY city return to the hands of the Chinese again, otherwise he will support Wuhan Even if there is no battle reserve, he will never allow such a thing to happen, so he took the risk of breaking the law and reported it to the higher level.

"Hey! I'll go to the telecommunications room to arrange the sending of the report!" The staff officer heard what Abe said, and naturally said without any opinion. Anyway, he also felt that losing the city was far more important than taking the responsibility of leapfrogging the report. .

After all, this leapfrog report is at most just being scolded by the superior or dismissed for investigation, but if the city is lost, it is a crime of defeat. If the superior blames it, even if they are killed, it is not an exaggeration. Therefore, after weighing the two, choose the lightest responsibility It is wiser to take responsibility.

At this time, the [-]th Regiment caught the devil by surprise because of the sudden counterattack. In addition, the [-]th Regiment and the [-]th Regiment attacked left and right to attack the devil's left and right wings. The devil suffered heavy losses from three sides. The fate of being annihilated, the devils finally retreated across the board, abandoning the position of fifty miles outside the city defense of Wuhan, which greatly eased the pressure of Wuhan's defense battle.

A large number of devils were forced to retreat to Yuyang Town, fifty miles outside of Wuhan. The head of the Matsui Brigade decided that they had consumed too much combat power and heavy firepower and ammunition in the previous eight attacks. The battle situation, so he thought of the heavy equipment Hashimoto United on PY's side, so immediately after the team deployed the defense, he ordered the devils in the telecommunications team to send a telegram to Hashimoto Shingo, ordering the Hashimoto United to rush to fight in Wuhan.
