When they learned that there was a shortage of ammunition, especially grenades, whether it was the seventh company or the third battalion, everyone suddenly became nervous, and this battle, fought until now, was a war of attrition, a huge consumption, not only the consumption of personnel, but also the consumption of ammunition.

The Japanese army has always had an abundance of ammunition, and Japan's domestic military factories have been producing it day and night, and it has been continuously transported by warships and freighters to the docks in Shanghai, and then by rail and road to Nanjing.

If they are in the wild mountains, they can also save some ammunition through the movement of terrain space, but now they are defending the city, and they have to use a lot of ammunition, and there is no way out.

……

Seeing that the devil continued to climb up like crazy, everyone had to throw away the only grenade they had on hand, except for one glorious bullet for themselves.

Most of the people are reluctant to be captured, especially the veterans who retreated from Songhu, they have seen too many scenes of killing and abusing prisoners in front of the Japanese army, and would rather blow themselves up than fall into the hands of devils.

There are also many seriously injured and incurable soldiers, they really can't stand it, anyway, they are all a death, it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible, alleviate the great pain of torture, and they will detonate themselves, if they catch the opportunity to die with the devil, it would be better.

As for the Japanese army, there are very few who surrender before the battle, and it has been analyzed before that the sacrificial spirit of bushido and the arrogance of looking down on the Chinese army make them rarely surrender, and many of them are also desperate or commit suicide.

These circumstances were very incomprehensible to many Western reporters and soldiers watching the war at that time, and the thinking of the Easterners was too unimaginable.

In the West, war is just war, there is no hatred between soldiers, surrender if you can't fight, there is no humiliation; And how did they know that the war between China and Japan was no longer a simple war, but a deep hatred between the two peoples.

Therefore, although the weapons on the Chinese battlefield were not as cruel and violent as those in Europe throughout World War II, the face-to-face cruelty of soldiers exceeded that of any other battlefield in Europe.

……

From the 7th Company to the 3rd Battalion and even to the entire 306th Regiment, the entire defense line was running out of ammunition, and the three dogs had to move out of the soil after throwing grenades.

This earthen method is triggered when the devil burns his own corpse, and the fire burns, yes, it is to burn the devil with fire, but how to burn it is very worth studying.

In the interval before the devil's attack, Sangou urgently ordered everyone to collect quilts and oil from the people's homes, no matter what kind of oil, kerosene, rape oil, tung oil, as long as it can be burned.

At this time, Sangou asked everyone to pour oil on the quilt, carry it with a long bamboo pole, send it to the top edge of the city wall, light it, and slide down the city wall.

Dozens of hundreds of quilts were poured with oil and lit, and the overwhelming fire slid down the wall from the city tower, and the ant-like devils who climbed on the city wall were suddenly burned so much that they couldn't stand it, and they jumped down automatically.

This thing is so uncomfortable, I'd rather jump down and fall to death than be burned to death a little bit, many devils are still tied to big iron nails by ropes, and they can't untie the rope at once, so they are burned to death in the fire quilt.

A little rope was burned and fell, and if you don't die, you will be disabled, and what is even more uncomfortable is that you are seriously injured and can't run after falling, and you are covered by the fire quilt that you chase down, and you will continue to burn to death.

The devils are like grasshoppers in the field that are barbecued by wildfire, splashing everywhere, of course, people can't splash, they can only fall down one after another, and the devils who fall down hit the devils who are crawling below, and the scene is chaotic.

A large number of devils gathered under the city wall, including dead and wounded soldiers, as well as people who were smashed down, people who were about to climb under the city, and some people were stoned to death on the spot, or were crushed to death.

The immortal were still burned by the fire, and the burning fled for their lives, and those with fire jumped into the winter moat, and finally picked up a life and came back.

Add fuel to the fire, yes, to add fuel to the fire.

Seeing that the fire was successful, the three dogs did not stop and issued a more deadly order again, telling everyone to throw the bottles and crockpots filled with fuel oil into the city tower.

The flames of the Zhonghua Gate rose to the sky again, reflecting half the sky, and a large number of devils were writhing and struggling in the flames, howling and dying, and finally they all became curled or charred corpses of different rules.

Last time, it was the devil who set fire to his own corpses, but this time there is no need to trouble the Japanese army, the defenders do it themselves, and the living people with the devils are also burned together, anyway, sooner or later, they will die, help you burn, no thanks.

……

As soon as Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, he burned Bowangpo, Xinye, Chibi, and later burned the rattan armor soldiers, all of which were planned to attack with fire, brutally burning and killing living beings, and never reflected on the disasters brought about by the war in his heart.

At this time, even if Sangou also had this thought, he always thought that he was different from Zhuge Liang's civil war and domestic unification war, this was a war against aggression, a war against foreign invaders, not a killing of his own people and his own compatriots.

In order to protect the family and defend the country, you can do whatever it takes, even if it is too heavy to kill and damage your own longevity, you don't care, as long as you can kill and injure a large number of Japanese soldiers, even if you die right now, it doesn't matter.

……

This time the fire made the Japanese army dumbfounded, knowing that the soldiers were not only brave and fearless, but also resourceful, and they couldn't come hard, otherwise a large number of soldiers would die in vain, and there would be no way to attack the city.

Of course, the devil will not be afraid of a little fire, on the contrary, he is even more crazy because of this, even crazy, eager to rush to the city tower and fight with the defenders.

After resting for a while, the devils began to attack again, their light and heavy machine guns, I don't know how many times they had changed their barrels, as long as the infantry began to attack, these machine guns kept firing at the towers to suppress the fire of the defenders.

The Japanese machine guns rang out again, this time, what tricks will they have?

When the three dogs were suspicious, the observation post reported that this time the Japanese sent some sappers, like marmots, to dig at the base of the city wall.

A large number of sappers, supported by the infantry, under the cover of light and heavy machine guns, began to dig the city walls, wanting to dig a hole to cross into the city walls?

Impossible, the thickness of this city wall is about 20 meters, and it is estimated that it will take more than ten days to dig through it if it is dug in this way.

The devil dug the city wall, definitely not to dig through, the only thing that can be guessed is that it is to dig a big hole, which is used to pile up explosives, and want to blow up the city wall.

Such a vicious devil, if the hole in the wall is dug deep enough and large enough, and the explosive equivalent placed is large enough, this section of the wall will definitely be blown up.

The defenders on the upper floor of the city, that is, the three dogs, were either killed or shocked to death, and there was basically no possibility of survival.

Moreover, once the city wall is blown open, the devils will inevitably swarm in, and the city defense battle is so passive, one point is broken, the whole line will be broken through, and when the time comes, the capital Nanjing City will really be breached.
