Anti-Japanese sniper action

Chapter 189 Ambush in front of the Zhonghua Gate 【Fifteen】

"Platoon Leader Zhang! You are here to send a fire signal."

When Zhao Zilong drove the tank to about 600 meters away from the residential area, he called out to Zhang Long.

"Xiao Bin! Don't reload, use the machine gun for cover."

After Zhang Long fired a cannon at the crowd of devils who were attacking the city on the other side of the city wall, he immediately gave an order, got out of the turret, and waved two torches at the city wall.

The shells exploded between two groups of devils carrying ladders and charging towards the city wall, blowing up seven or eight people at once.

The devils nearby were startled, and only then did they notice the flames and tanks in the distance, and they all screamed, and then a dozen soldiers charged towards this side.

It was the first time Wen Bin used a crooked weapon, and it was also the first time he used a machine gun to hit a devil, so he was a little nervous.

Under the light of those explosions, he vaguely saw a figure running towards him in the distance, and immediately pulled the trigger of the machine gun.

Da da da……

A series of bullets were fired in the distance.

"Xiao Bin! Don't shoot yet. It's hard to hit the devils at such a distance. Wait until they get closer to two or three hundred meters."

Zhao Zilong quickly stopped.

He turned around and saw Zhang Long's whole body exposed from the turret, and immediately reminded: "Platoon Leader Zhang! Don't stand too high, or you will be hit by bullets."

"If I don't stand tall, the brothers over there won't be able to see clearly." Zhang Long shook his head, then waved his torch towards the city wall.

Then, he turned around and fired another fire signal at the residential area.
-
This side of the city wall.

Because the devils attacked fiercely, it was very difficult for Chen Jiangang and the national army brothers to defend.

Fortunately, Sun Jian and half of the corps brought by Wang Songguang, the commander of the 51st Division, arrived in time to block another wave of attacks by the devils.

"Master's seat! There is a fire signal from platoon leader Zhang over there." As soon as Chen Jiangang received the signaler's report, he immediately ran over and told Sun Jian.

"What did he say?" Sun Jian raised his eyebrows and asked hastily.On the city wall, he saw two small flames five to six hundred meters to the left.

"Zhang Long told us that Brother Zhao sensed the arrival of two more devil squadrons and asked us to get ready."

"Is that Zhao Zilong?" Sun Jian asked.

"Yes, Brother Zhao drove the tank and Zhang Long and the others to fight the devils, but for some reason, the tank rushed to the left. Now that they are back, they are sending a fire signal to us." Chen Jiangang explained after nodding.

"Hmm..." Sun Jian couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Zhao Zilong once told Sun Jian about driving a tank when he went to the city to find gasoline, so he completely believed Chen Jiangang's words.What he was thinking about now was how to deal with the devil troops that came.

"Mr. Sun! If the devils come with two more squadrons, we can barely defend the city." Wang Songguang said solemnly.

"Hmm." Sun Jian lowered his brows and thought again.

At this time, they heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from the side of the city wall, and turned their heads to look, only to see a few people running in front of them, the first officer was Xiao Lingshan, the commander of the gendarmerie.

"Mr. Sun! Mr. Wang! Xiao is late." Xiao Lingshan apologized while walking.

"Commander Xiao! You came in time." Sun Jian's eyes lit up, and he immediately came up to meet him.

"Commander Xiao! Are all your people here?" Wang Songguang asked immediately.

"We're all here, one regiment." Seeing the solemn faces of the two, Xiao Lingshan immediately asked, "What's the matter? How is the battle going now?"

Sun Jian immediately explained the situation.

"Hmm..." Xiao Lingshan looked at the battle on the other side of the moat, frowned, then suddenly let go, and said, "I have an idea. "

Sun Jian and Wang Songguang stared over immediately.

"Since we are using a triangular formation to surround the devils, then Master Wang and I will lead our troops out of the city from both sides to encircle the devils." Xiao Lingshan said in a deep voice.

"Big siege?" Sun Jian and Wang Songguang couldn't help but looked at each other, full of surprise.

"Yes! The devils just want to attack the city wall? As long as we hold these three points, we will cut off the devils' retreat, make them panic and lose their balance. Then we will launch a full-scale attack and wipe out all the devils." Xiao Lingshan The tone is firm and authentic.

"Commander Xiao! You have such a bold tone. Do you know that? Now the devils and the two squadrons that have rushed over are equivalent to a strengthened brigade." Sun Jian raised his brows and said in astonishment.

"What does a brigade have? Isn't it just 1000 or [-] people?"

Xiao Lingshan showed a hint of arrogance on his face: "We have one and a half regiments, with as many as 500 people, and this is not counting the hundreds of brothers who guard the city and the residential areas. Moreover, our equipment is no worse than that of the devils. Why can't we encircle and kill the enemy?"

"Okay! Now that the battle has ended like this, why do we have to worry about it? Kill him, grandma!" Wang Songguang's spirits immediately lifted, and his eyes became firm.

"Since you all support it, I agree too."

Sun Jian nodded, and then said: "The most important thing now is to defend the houses on both sides and the city wall, and drag the devils to fight."

"Yep."

Wang Songguang also nodded in agreement: "Also, there is too much movement here, which may alarm the nearby devil troops. Therefore, we must immediately notify the nearby divisions to cooperate and threaten those devils not to move out easily.

After the three discussed it, Sun Jian led everyone to defend the city, while Wang Songguang and Xiao Yushan personally led two troops, sneaked down from the north and south walls, bypassed the residential area, cut off the devil's retreat, and attacked back and forth.
-
Here in the residential area.

"Wang Yingzuo! I received the fire signal from platoon leader Zhang. He said that the devils have come to two squadrons again." The signaler immediately reported to Wang Zhong when he saw the fire signal from Zhang Long.

"What!" Wang Zhong was shocked.

"Also, a fire signal was sent from the city wall, asking us to shrink our positions and hold the devils back." The signaler added.

After observing the changes in the situation on the battlefield, Wang Zhong immediately waved his hand and said, "Execute the order immediately."

As soon as Battalion Commander Zhou, who was fighting on the right side of the civilian housing area, received the fire signal, he quickly ordered the soldiers to shrink their positions again and stand firm to fight back.

Because the national army had already piled up a lot of sandbag bunkers in the residential area, although they were fewer in number than the devils, they were holding their ground now, so the devils could not rush up for a while.
-
A devil camp on the outskirts of Nanjing, the headquarters.

"Get out! Why doesn't Okamoto Taro dare to obey my orders?"

Seeing the report that Okamoto Taro was still leading the army to attack the Zhonghua Gate, Chaoxiang Gongjiu angrily tore up the telegram.

"Commander Chaoxiang! Now that the Okamoto Regiment has already attacked the Zhonghuamen, why don't we quickly dispatch nearby troops to support, maybe we can capture Nanjing City in one fell swoop."

Chief of Staff Yoshida quickly proposed.

"Huh?...Okay. You can send me an order to them tomorrow." After thinking about Xiang Gongjiu, he said.

"Mingdian?" Chief of Staff Yoshida couldn't help but widen his eyes, and asked in surprise, "Commander Chaoxiang! Aren't you afraid that the Chinese Army will receive our telegram?"
