"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

At 2 p.m., the Japanese bombarded the southern city wall with 12 heavy howitzers.

The city walls are a product of the age of cold weapons, and they are so vulnerable to modern weapons. It didn't take long for it to be blasted in.

More than 600 devils are in the south of the city under the cover of ten Tuckers.

"The devil is coming!" The soldiers on the city walls shouted loudly.

At this time, the brigade commander Lu Kangzheng personally commanded the city wall, and quickly ordered the second battalion and the special service company to go to the gap and arrange firepower to intercept the devils, and never let the enemy pass. The rest of the people stayed in their positions and fought back with all their might!

After the second battalion and the spy company left, the Sichuan soldiers on the city wall raised their guns and quickly launched a counterattack. And constantly throwing grenades downward.

Now the strength on the city wall is less than a regiment, and Lu Kang really has no troops to send, so he has no choice but to send the spy company to protect himself to block the devils. The only one who was left to protect him was a guard.

"Boom Boom"

The devil's howitzers kept falling above the city walls, and the roar was deafening.

"Ahh "My hand!" ……”

Screams like this rang out over the walls. Many soldiers were seriously injured by the explosion, and some even lost their hands and feet. Perhaps it was a blessing for them that these people were killed directly.

Brigade Commander Lu Kang could only watch them scream, but there was nothing he could do. What stretcher team, what medical team is just an unrealistic luxury for them. Everyone is ready to realize that dying on the battlefield is their final destination.

However, the aggressor is not going to sympathize and pity his enemies. At this moment, more than a dozen enemy planes roared from the north, and a major bombardment was about to arrive.

The guard on the side walked up to Lu Kang and persuaded him vigorously: "Brigade commander! It's dangerous here, you go to the back. ”

"What to go! All my soldiers are here, they are gone, and my brigade commander doesn't have to be! ”

Lu Kangning was reluctant to leave the city wall position and continued to command the battle.

"Whoosh"

Dozens of bombshells fell from the sky, covering almost the entire city wall position. Soldiers were killed and wounded.

"Brigadier Commander, be careful!"

The guard flew over and pinned Lu Kang to the ground. "Boom!" A bomb exploded around them.

After Lu Kang calmed down, he felt his ears ringing. He immediately noticed that the guard was lying on his body covered in blood.

"Brigadier, can I go home......"

With that, the guard took his last breath with blood in his mouth.

Lu Kang turned over the guard's body and said, "Go back to your home, the devil hasn't finished killing yet."

As he spoke, Lu Kang patted the soil on the guard's body and continued: "Wait for me below, Lao Tzu will take you to continue killing devils."

After speaking, Lu Kang stood up. With his bloodshot hands, he watched the battlefield filled with gunsmoke and his soldiers fall one by one, and the screams he didn't want to hear sounded in his ears. Suddenly, Brigade Commander Lu Kang shouted with all his strength: "The enemy will not be destroyed, and he will not return to his hometown!" Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

These words were the slogan when they left Sichuan, and they were also the oath engraved in the bones of every soldier of the Sichuan army.

"Boom!" A bomb exploded next to Lu Kang again. Lu Kang stared at the countless devils in front of him rushing towards this side, his eyes turned black, and he slowly fell backwards.

"Brigadier Commander!" "Brigadier Commander!"

The Sichuan soldiers who were still alive around shouted one after another. A soldier ran over desperately, picked up Lu Kang and ran towards Chengxi.

At the gap in the southern city, the second battalion of the 370th Brigade and the special service company fought back against the devils who poured in at the collapse. After the previous bombardment by aircraft and artillery, there have been heavy casualties. It seems a bit overwhelming to deal with so many devils.

The soldiers of the Sichuan army above the city wall kept throwing grenades into the gap, but they were quickly suppressed by the devil's heavy machine guns and mortar guns below.

The Japanese troops on the attacking side seem to have received a death order to capture Fuji County on the 17th. The infantry charged at no cost, and the heavy artillery units became even more frenzied, blasting several gaps in the southern wall. One tank actually passed through.

"Turtle son, try Lao Tzu's grenade!"

When the tank approached, the Sichuan soldiers on the city wall jumped from the top with grenades strapped all over their bodies, and died directly with the tank. With their flesh and blood, they blew up a total of two Japanese tanks.

No matter how tenacious the Sichuan army was, they were still outnumbered in the end. More than 500 Japanese troops poured in from various gaps.

At 3 p.m., the southern city was broken. Part of the remaining forces of the 370th Brigade was withdrawn to the vicinity of the Xiguan Railway Station.

At the same time, the Japanese army broke through to Dongguan under the cover of artillery fire and tanks, and Wang Lin, the commander of the 740th Regiment of the 124th Division guarding Dongguan, was seriously wounded and died. The defense of the eastern city also fell to the ground. Japanese troops poured in from both sides, preparing to occupy the entire prefecture of Teng.

"Sister-in-law, are you ready?"

Yang Hongtao hurriedly ran to the health team. He had already learned that the two gates to the southeast had been breached. The sixth company was to be in charge of the health team, and more than 200 lightly and seriously wounded soldiers of the Sichuan army retreated from the west gate.

"Alright, let's go."

Liu Ying was ready to leave with the nurses and doctors.

At this moment, a Sichuan soldier ran to the health team with Brigade Commander Lu Kang on his back and begged: "Save our brigade commander quickly!" He was hit by a shell. ”

"Fast into the operating room."

Liu Ying hurriedly led the way and prepared for the operation.

Yang Hongtao immediately stopped: "Sister-in-law, there is no time." The devils will soon occupy the west gate, but no one will be able to leave at that time. ”

Liu Ying began to hesitate: "But ......"

Yang Hongtao said: "Don't forget that there are more than 200 wounded, and our sixth company with them will draw out their strength to fight the devils."

Thinking of the two hundred wounded and all the soldiers of the sixth company, Liu Ying wanted to compromise.

The soldier put down Lu Kang lightly, and suddenly knelt down and kept kowtowing to Liu Ying: "Please, please, please......"

Seeing this scene, Liu Ying's heart softened suddenly, and she said to Yang Hongtao: "I am a doctor, I can't see death without help." You give me half an hour. ”

Without waiting for Yang Hongtao to agree, Liu Ying asked the soldier to carry Lu Kang into the operating room. Yang Hongtao was very helpless, it was difficult for him to understand the thoughts of a doctor. Save one person, maybe more people will die.

Yang Hongtao returned to the Sixth Company. At this time, the fighters of the sixth company were ready to leave with the wounded.

Yang Hongtao ordered: "The first platoon and the second platoon will stay, and the third platoon and the lightly wounded will be responsible for transferring the seriously wounded to the north gate."

At this time, one of the wounded officers of a major rushed to Yang Hongtao and said: "This brother of the Eighth Route Army, don't you know that the north gate has been sealed."

"What can I do! My sister-in-law has to stay behind to save one of your brigade commanders. In half an hour, the devil may have occupied Simon. Even if you don't occupy it, do you take so many people with you? ”

Yang Hongtao was a little excited, and ordered loudly: "Action!"

After the order, Yang Hongtao took two platoons to the south to block the Japanese army.

After the eastern wall was broken by the Japanese army, hundreds of devils poured in. Shao Fei and the special combat team fought until the last moment, but they were helpless and retreated to the city.

Four members of the special combat team were hit by shells one after another and were injured to varying degrees.

Now Shao Fei has two choices: first, to continue fighting until the evening and leave; Second, go to the west to meet Liulian, and evacuate Tengxian now.
