Chapter 597: The Death of the Sichuan Army (First Update!) )

();

In the face of the powerful firepower of the Japanese army, the soldiers of the Sichuan army who were stationed on the city wall could not raise their heads at all, and suffered heavy casualties for a while.

Thousands of devil infantry, under the cover of mortars and light and heavy machine guns, coordinated with several tanks and combat vehicles, swarmed towards the gap in the city wall.

Seeing that the situation was precarious, at the critical moment, General Wang Mingzhang, commander of the 122nd Division, personally led the guard battalion and special service battalion directly under the division to rush from the inner city to support.

"Brothers! Hit, hit me hard! ”

General Wang Mingzhang charged forward and decisively pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang bang" After a few gunshots, three or four devil soldiers who rushed to the front fell down in response.

At the same time, the rest of the soldiers also opened fire decisively, and opened fierce fire on the enemy who broke into the city.

Suddenly, the bullets were dense like rain, and they hit head-on towards the devil army.

"Uhh

"Uhh

"Uhhhh ……”

In order to win the first credit for the capture of the county seat of Tengxian County, these little devils rushed towards the city frantically.

As a result, he was caught off guard, and was killed and wounded by the soldiers of the Sichuan army who came to support him.

However, the little devils are extremely adaptable on the battlefield.

The sudden firepower strike did not make it panic.

The little devils who poured into the city soon spread around, looking for favorable terrain and cover to dodge, and at the same time raised their guns and opened fire in return.

After the devil infantry dispersed, the tank and combat vehicles that had come together were revealed.

Vehicle-mounted heavy machine guns, as well as tank guns, were constantly firing forward.

In particular, tank artillery is a fatal threat to the officers and men of the Sichuan army, and almost every shot will cause a large number of casualties to the defenders.

However, the weapons and equipment of the Sichuan army are extremely backward, and they are far from being comparable with those central armies.

Not only did there not have a single battle defense artillery, but there were almost no mortars, and there were all kinds of weapons in hand.

Even Hanyang, whose rifling has been smoothed, is a baby bump in the Sichuan army.

Even some Sichuan soldiers rushed to the battlefield with a saber or a red tassel gun.

Therefore, when they faced the little devil's Iron King Eight, they had no power to resist at all.

General Wang Mingzhang quickly realized this, so he decisively changed his strategic deployment, first let his soldiers scatter on both sides of the streets and alleys, relying on the private houses and buildings in the city as covers, and continued to stop and kill the little devils pouring into the city.

The Sichuan army was born after its mother, and not only could not be compared with the central army in terms of weapons and equipment, but also had a very short supply of ammunition.

The fierce fighting for several days also caused a huge consumption of ammunition for the 122nd Division.

At this time, there was not much ammunition left in his hand.

Even many soldiers have already run out of bullets in their hands.

So, after the devil army continued to charge forward and narrowed the distance with his own, General Wang Mingzhang decisively led the army to take the initiative to launch a counter-charge against the little devils who poured into the city.

After a firefight, the two armies collided fiercely like Mars hitting the earth.

Fought to the death against a steady stream of devils who flocked into the city.

For a time, the entire Teng County was shocked by the sound of killing.

General Wang Mingzhang took the lead, with an iron sword in his hand, just like a world-famous killing god, killing the little devil's head and bleeding like a river.

The surrounding soldiers were greatly encouraged, and all of them burst out with unprecedented combat effectiveness and will to fight.

will have a heart of mortality,

There is no greed for life.

This iron law has been best interpreted by the Zhongchuan Army of the 122nd Division!

Because the soldiers of the Sichuan army were not afraid of life and death and took the lead bravely, after a bloody battle, General Wang Mingzhang finally led his troops to repel the enemy who attacked the city.

However, the devil, who was unwilling to fail, quickly gathered dozens of cannons and continued to fire at the city.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom! ——”

Every time a cannonball falls, it produces a violent explosion and makes an earth-shattering bang.

Soon, the entire county seat of Tengxian County was drowned in endless artillery fire.

Countless loyal and brave soldiers of the Sichuan army could not dodge.

They fell under the fire of the devils.

At this time, the main force of the 22nd Group Army of the Sichuan Army fought a bloody battle with the Japanese army around Tengxian County for three days, and had already retreated for 6 consecutive days.

As a result, Tengxian County was surrounded by Japanese troops on all sides.

Although General Wang Mingzhang repelled the enemy who broke through to the northeast of the city, the city walls in other directions were broken through and captured by the Japanese army one after another.

The defenders suffered heavy casualties under the absolute superior fire of Japanese artillery and aircraft.

General Wang Mingzhang was forced to shrink his forces, retreat to the northwest city of Teng County, and continue to resist, at this time Teng County was already in danger.

When the Japanese offensive was resting for a while, General Wang Mingzhang once again sent a telegram to Sun Zhen, deputy commander-in-chief of the group army: "The enemy is attacking very fiercely, and the soldiers defending the city have suffered heavy casualties.

I am determined to fight to the death to repay my country!"

A subordinate adjutant persuaded Wang Mingzhang to take advantage of the situation to break through.

was categorically rejected by Wang Mingzhang: "As a soldier, it is my duty to serve the country with death!" This war against Japan has a bearing on the life and death of the entire Chinese nation.

Now we have to sacrifice everything to complete the mission, even if there is only one soldier left, we will fight to the end, and we will not complain!

How can it be so for the country?

It is not enough to atone for the sins of the Sichuan Army's twenty years of civil war!

The matter of retreating and breaking through the siege, Hugh must mention it again, otherwise Hugh blames me for not remembering the righteousness of my comrades!

Today, there is only the Sichuan army that died in battle, there is no surrender, and there is no retreating Sichuan army!"

All the soldiers around him were infected by General Wang Mingzhang's will to die, so they no longer mentioned the matter of breaking through the siege to protect themselves.

That night, the Japanese army did not continue to attack, and the defenders of Tengxian County, who had been fighting for two days and two nights, ushered in a rare respite.

Because most of the city was occupied by the enemy, all the baggage was lost.

The fighters couldn't even eat a hot dinner.

I can only satisfy my hunger with dry food, and it is winter, and the weather is cold.

The dry food was frozen like stones, and the difficulties can be imagined.

What is even more difficult is the lack of medical treatment, and many wounded officers and soldiers of the Sichuan army can only grit their teeth and stiffen up.

In the cold, people continue to die of their injuries and die heroically.

I had just survived a difficult night, and the next day it was just getting light.

Before the sun had fully risen, the Japanese began shelling again.

Shells fell from the sky and landed in the defenders' defense area, immediately setting off one violent explosion after another.

Some of the fighters, unfortunately hit by the explosion, fell in pools of blood on the spot.

After a heavy artillery bombardment, the Japanese army, led by more than a dozen tanks and armored vehicles, attacked the defenders along the street again.

"Brothers, the situation has come to this point, and there is no choice but to fight to the death!

Swear to live and die with Teng County! The city is in the people, and the city is in the fall! Fight!"

"Ge Lao Tzu drop! Fight!"

"Fight to the end with the little Oriental devils!" Nearly 1,000 remnants of the soldiers, all of whom regarded death as home, roared angrily.

Not long after, the Japanese rushed into the range of fire.

The soldiers opened fire one after another, and a bloody battle ensued with the enemy.
