Anti-Japanese sniper action

Chapter 290 The Devil Ship Is Coming
Seeing that the devils began to retreat, but some people were still stubbornly resisting, Zhao Zilong told Zhang Hu to fire the gun.

As the devil's light and heavy machine guns were destroyed one by one, they became even more unwilling to fight.

This time, under the leadership of Xiao Lingshan, the national army beat the devils to the ground and fled.

After chasing and killing for two or three kilometers, Xiao Lingshan immediately ordered everyone to clean up the battlefield and retreat to the city gate.

Okamoto Taro, who was the first to escape, took the opportunity to recruit those devils and broke out, barely forming a regiment.He retreated to the Zhonghua Gate, and sent a telegram to the Front Army Command requesting further military support.

He was so frightened that he didn't dare to lead the team to attack alone again, and attributed the defeat to the two captains of Nagu Hideto and Asakingo Island.

After Chaoxiang Gongjiu received the order, he notified other troops to encircle Yijiangmen, and asked the navy to block the section of the river in Xiaguan.
-
Yijiangmen.

This time they not only defeated the two ghost teams, but also got a lot of guns and ammunition, which made everyone very happy.

And, more importantly, after today's battle in Yijiangmen, the blood and fighting spirit of the Chinese army have been demonstrated.

Seeing the excitement on everyone's faces, Zhao Zilong's mouth curled up and he smiled.

Afterwards, he squinted his eyes to sense the movement within ten kilometers around him.

"Commander Xiao! The devil's rout is gathering at the Zhonghua Gate, and there are also several devil troops approaching outside the city gate. You should quickly arrange for everyone to cross the river and retreat."

As soon as Zhao Zilong sensed that there were ghosts pouring into Nanjing City, he immediately told Xiao Lingshan about the situation.

"What are you afraid of? Now our soldiers are as powerful as a rainbow, and we can kill as many devils as they come." The tall head of the regiment said proudly.

"Yes, yes, we have been oppressed and beaten by the devils, and this time we must get our money back." Another group leader said.

Many military officers expressed their support.

Since they fought with the devils, they have always been suppressed and beaten, and they were always defeated. In the end, they were driven to Xiaguan by the devils and forced to jump into the river.

Now it is rare to be able to defeat the alliance of three devils in a row on the Yijiangmen side and kill five or six thousand devils. Why are they not excited and proud?
As long as they return to their original unit, they will have the capital to show off.

"Commander Xiao! We were able to temporarily defeat the devils by relying on the terrain, mainly because of their underestimation and lack of preparation." Zhao Zilong said hastily.

He didn't lose his composure because of the two victories, but he analyzed the problem rationally.Because he knew that in history those devils had surrounded Xiaguan Wharf from all directions.

As long as those devils navy comes over, there is no need for infantry to attack. If those warships bombard with cannons, there is no place for everyone to hide.

Only by letting everyone cross the river in time before the navy arrives can we retreat safely.

"Hurry up and arrange for the brothers to cross the river." Zhao Zilong told Xiao Lingshan and the other officers his analysis.

All the officers were also dazzled by the victory just now, and they said that they would stick to this place to kill the devils out of enthusiasm, but after all, they are able to achieve this position, and they are also very experienced. Hearing what Zhao Zilong said, I thought of this the seriousness of the problem.

Xiao Lingshan immediately arranged for the officers to cross the river in the order before.

Each officer immediately led his troops to arrange preparations.

Zhao Zilong also suggested that everyone cut down the trees in the grove outside the city gate and make rafts.

At this time, at one or two o'clock in the noon, the sun was in the sky and the visibility on the river was high, but the wind gradually picked up.

After more than two hours of fighting before, time was bought for those national troops who crossed the river and retreated.

What is left at the Xiaguan Wharf is mainly the more than 5000 national troops and more than 1000 military police who stayed behind to fight.

"Little Tiger! How many shells are there now?"

Zhao Zilong looked at the many rafts floating on the river, and the national soldiers were trying to control them and rowed to the opposite bank.

He has been sensing the movement in the distance on the river, because he doesn't know when the devil's navy will come.

Zhang Hu looked at the wooden box containing the shells, nodded roughly, and replied: "There are more than 30 shells left."

"It's so few?" Zhao Zilong couldn't help but frowned.

Da da da……

Suddenly, he heard gunshots in the distance across the river.

Then the national soldiers at the pier shouted: "The devil ship is coming."

Zhao Zilong took a closer look and saw several speedboats appearing on the river, not ships.

The devils on the speedboat fired at the national soldiers on the raft.

Although the national army also fired back, their firepower was obviously too weak.

Immediately, more than a dozen nationalist soldiers on rafts were hit by bullets, and more nationalist soldiers were forced to jump into the river.

Those national soldiers on the shore could only watch, unable to help, and worried about how they did not know how to cross the river.

Some national troops captured grenadiers, but they did not dare to throw them because they were afraid of hitting their own people on the river.

"Little Tiger! Direction at ten o'clock, distance 2100 meters, bearing XXX." Zhao Zilong frowned, and immediately asked Zhang Hu to fire and hit those ships.

Zhang Hu did not hesitate, and immediately adjusted the muzzle to face the river.

At the beginning, because of the wind on the river, the shells fired by Zhang Hu fell around 30 meters from the ship.

However, this time, those devil speedboats did not dare to get too close to shoot and kill the national army on the raft.

"Little Tiger! The wind speed and direction are XXX now." Zhao Zilong saw it and said it immediately.

Later, after several adjustments, Zhang Hu controlled the wind direction and speed of the river wind, and fired at four or five of the devil's ships. The remaining three devil's speedboats immediately ran away in fright.

Now, the national army stepped up time to cross the river.

By three or four in the afternoon, most of the national army had successfully crossed the river.

However, when it was the turn of more than 30 brothers from Wang Zhong's battalion to cross the river, the devil's infantry unit arrived.

Xiao Lingshan ordered Deng Chao to lead Wu Xin to retreat first.

Originally they were arranged to cross the river with the national army in the first batch, but Deng Chao said that he was a military policeman and wanted to retreat with his brothers from the Military Police Department, and Wu Xin also supported them, so they stayed and participated in the previous battle.

"President Wu! You must obey my orders. I am the commander of Nanjing and the commander-in-chief of crossing the river. If you don't obey my orders, I can shoot you."

As soon as Zhao Zilong saw that Xiao Lingshan was angry, he immediately pushed Deng Chao, pulled Wu Xin and said, "Quick, you take the boat, we'll make the raft."

Deng Chao, Wu Xin and two gendarmes were in a small boat. Zhao Zilong first pushed them down the river and let them float across the river. He, Wang Zhong and others all jumped on a dozen rafts.

Looking at the raft away from the wharf, Zhao Zilong looked into the distance, Xiao Yushan led the military police to resist the devils on the Yijiang Gate, his heart was very heavy.
