6.110 The city of Nanjing was broken

This sneaky transport operation of the Japanese army lasted for more than two hours, and then the devils under the city walls began to retreat in a big way, and it was not a fun thing for more than a ton of explosives to explode, and the Japanese 18 Brigade only left a dozen daredevils and a bean chariot next to the burning fuse, these people didn't think they could leave alive at all, and the driver inside the bean chariot never turned off the engine, This is to drive the bean chariot as far away as possible from the place where the explosives are stacked when the fuse is about to burn out, and as for whether the people in the chariot can survive the explosion, just wait a few more minutes to know. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The devil sappers dug a hole under a section of the Ming city wall, all the explosives were piled up in this hole, and the long fuse had been lit, as a punishment for lying on the ground just now, Ota Shinichi was "lucky" to join the death squad guarding the explosives.

The white cloth belt tied on the top of his head had almost no function to keep out the cold, and Ota didn't quite understand why the officers who stayed behind would ask them to take off the steel helmets on their heads, not to mention the safety issues, at least the steel helmets stuffed with towels would make Ota feel warmer.

The sudden retreat of the Japanese army surprised Song Xilian and He Daru very much, although the Japanese siege did not go very well, but there was no need to withdraw the troops on all fronts, doesn't this mean that all the results achieved in the previous days have been abandoned? Let the troops go through a rain of bullets again after they have rested? If the commander of the Japanese army was stupid to such an extent, then Song Xilian would feel worthless for the officers and men of the 36th Division, who had almost lost all casualties.

It is impossible to think that the guy who used a truck full of explosives to sneak attack the city wall cannot be a stupid person, although Song Xilian still doesn't know which Japanese commander he is facing, but it is not difficult to see from the process of fighting that this Japanese leader outside Guanghua Gate is also a fierce general.

The brief calm on the battlefield made Song Xilian anxious, and he reported the latest situation to the city defense headquarters, and Huang Haoran fell into deep thought after receiving Song Xilian's telegram.

The sudden retreat of the Japanese army must have been brewing some big move, Huang Haoran and Song Xilian kept the same in this judgment, Fan Jie and the 10th Army of the devil in the south of the city fought very hard, although Wang Shankui had a telegram to complain that Fan Jie had never invested in the main force of the teaching corps, but Huang Haoran believed that Fan Jie must have his reasons.

Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious, Huang Haoran can hand over the crumbling Guanghuamen to Song Xilian to fight, what reason does he have for Fan Jie, who was sturdy when he started?

In order to take care of Wang Shankui's emotions, Huang Haoran sent a condolence message to the 139th Division, which can be regarded as giving Wang Shankui some comfort.

The 23rd Army Corps and the 101st Division of the Sichuan Army in Wuhu have been playing a game of playing house, the 23rd Army Corps will retreat the defensive line by several hundred meters almost every day, and the 101st Division is not in a hurry, it seems that the commander of the 101st Division, Lieutenant General Ito Masaki, is very satisfied with the harvest of a few hundred meters a day, if it were not for the Japanese Air Force's almost all-weather bombing of Wuhu City, Huang Haoran really doubts that the devil does not look down on Wuhu.

If it weren't for the frantic attack of the 6th Division and the 18th Division on the bank of the Yangtze River, the retreat problem that Huang Haoran had been worried about could be solved so unexpectedly, and now think about the small steps of the 101st Division in Wuhu, it is very likely that it is Matsui Shigen's trick, this is done to paralyze him, so that Huang Haoran feels that the retreat of Nanjing City is still in the hands of the Nanjing garrison.

This time Huang Haoran wronged Matsui Shigen, Matsui Shigen originally expected the 101st Division to be able to take Wuhu and block Huang Haoran's retreat, but the commander of the 101st Division, Ito Masaki, thought that it was impossible for his division alone to block the hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops retreating from Nanjing to Wuhu, plus the 23rd Army Corps of the Sichuan Army showed completely different combat effectiveness from the response of the Japanese intelligence department after being strengthened by Huang Haoran, Ito Masaki insisted on his judgment even more and played the trick of coping with errands, Matsui Ishine's anger at the 101st Division was no less than his anger at the 18th Brigade, and if it weren't for the strong progress made by Tani Toshio's 6th Division and Nakajima Sadao's 18th Division on the riverside passage of the Nanjing Garrison, I am afraid that Matsui Ishine would have gone to Wuhu to supervise the battle.

Huang Haoran always felt that the Japanese army in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War was very strong, and he did not expect that in 37 years, the Japanese generals also had the same mutual restraint as the high-level officials of the Wuhan government.

Where there are people, there are strife, and although the Japanese are animals, they are humanoid animals after all......

Huang Haoran finally chose to continue to believe in Song Xilian, and his reply was very simple: "Be vigilant and be more careful!" ”

Song Xilian, who was standing on the Ming City Wall, read the reply letter with only eight words, and his wrist trembled slightly, he already felt the trust contained in these eight words, and for this trust, it was worth it for him to throw the 36th Division in Guanghuamen!

Song Xilian ordered the battalion and company commanders of the 99th Army Special Service Regiment and the 36th Division to organize mobile observation posts to patrol everywhere on the city wall.

Just as Song Xilian gave the order, there was a burst of chaos within the Japanese death squad under the city wall......

Seeing that the remaining part of the fuse is getting shorter and shorter, the Chinese on the city wall have not discovered their actions until now, if this situation can be maintained for another two minutes, then all of them have a chance to stay away from the explosion point, when these devil soldiers found that they still have a chance to survive, the soldiers in the bean chariot and the Japanese death squad guarding the explosives began to live in their hearts.

Even if the infantry runs with a broken leg, it is impossible to run past the chariot, and when fleeing for their lives, the speed advantage of the bean chariot is immediately reflected, and the hope of survival of the charioteers staying in the bean chariot is not known how many times higher than that of the flesh-and-blood infantry, and this differential treatment makes the commander of the remaining infantry, Lieutenant Sato, feel unfair!

He wants to have a good theory with the commander of the tank, Lieutenant Kawasaki!

Bullets and grenades fell on the city wall from time to time, although Lieutenant Kawasaki's bean chariot was disguised as a destroyed appearance, but some Chinese soldiers just like to shoot the Japanese chariot to vent, Lieutenant Sato can only crawl to the side of the bean chariot, he mixed in the pile of Japanese corpses on the ground and hit the body of the bean chariot with the handle of a bayonet, after a while, the commander of the chariot, Lieutenant Kawasaki, opened a small observation window, and he directly gave Lieutenant Sato this sentence:

"Lieutenant Sato! What are you doing here? What if the presence of the chariot is exposed and the cannonballs of the people of China are attracted? ”

Greedy for life and afraid of death! Just think about his chariot! Aren't the infantry human? Lieutenant Sato is now fully confident that when the fuse of the explosives burns to the last section, Lieutenant Kawasaki will definitely escape in his bean chariot!

You can't just let these charioteers escape so easily!

"Lieutenant Kawasaki! The Chinese have not yet discovered our actions, and in a while this explosion will be irreversible! The warriors of the Empire should not be wasted here, and I hope that my infantry will leave in your chariots! ”

Lieutenant Sato said his expectations directly, the fuse burned very fast, and now every minute and second of time is extremely precious!

"No way!"

Grim voice! Without the slightest hesitation, Lieutenant Sato was ruthlessly rejected by the tank commander, Lieutenant Kawasaki! Not even a reason!

"It's too much! Lieutenant Kawasaki! All are soldiers of the Empire! Why favor one over the other? ”

Lieutenant Sato asked sharply, but Lieutenant Kawasaki looked a little impatient, and he wanted to close the observation hole of the chariot.

Lieutenant Kawasaki can't be allowed to succeed, this bean chariot is the last hope for the infantry to survive! Lieutenant Sato quickly jumped up from the ground and stuffed his pistol into the observation window of the bean chariot, the iron plate pushed by Lieutenant Kawasaki was jammed, and the observation window failed to close.

"What are you doing here!" Seeing the muzzle of the black hole, Lieutenant Kawasaki became panicked, he was more worried about whether Lieutenant Kato's actions had alarmed the Nanjing garrison on the city wall, if the Chinese found out their bombing of the wall, they would definitely send troops down to stop it, then Lieutenant Kawasaki's bean chariot could only stay with the infantry to guard the explosives at the foot of the city wall, so that he would have no chance of survival!

Run away? Brigade commander Jing Shuxuan has already taken his military career in Guanghuamen, and even the troops of the 3rd Division and the 16th Division have been secretly transferred by Jing Shuxuanshi to participate in the war, it can be said that if you can't take Guanghuamen today, Jing Shuxuanshi may not even see the sun tomorrow, if there is a chariot commander who escaped without permission at this juncture and sends it to Jing Shuxuanshi, then the fate of this officer must be miserable!

So from the first second when Lieutenant Sato stuffed the gun into the observation window of the tank, Lieutenant Kawasaki had already begun to think about how to get Lieutenant Sato over, the Japanese-made chariot is very small, if you really let the infantry outside climb on top of the armor, it is very dangerous for the chariot to even be able to start, such a professional reason will not have the slightest effect even if it is said, so it will only make Lieutenant Sato, who is already very angry, shoot immediately, how to stabilize Lieutenant Sato, this is a very real problem.

Also, you can't alarm the Chinese...... on the city wall

"To bring or not to bring? I just need you an answer! ”

Now it's Lieutenant Sato's turn to speak coldly, such a question is actually somewhat unnecessary, what kind of answer can a person have in front of the muzzle? Unless that person is not afraid of death, but Lieutenant Kawasaki is clearly not a person who is not afraid of death.

"Alright! All right! Lieutenant Sato! I understand! But as you can see, my tank is small! It is impossible to take all of them! Five! No, no, no..... Ten! This number is the limit! You can't hang your people on the tracks, can you? ”

Lieutenant Kawasaki's eyes rolled and he came up with a poisonous plan, and his reply was to let the infantry guarding the explosives start infighting themselves! There are only so many places to escape, if you want to go, get rid of your competitors first!

The carrying capacity of five people was actually the limit of the bean chariot, and Lieutenant Kawasaki temporarily changed his words and said that he could take ten people, one was to show his sincerity in cooperation, and the other was to create a fatal split for the Japanese infantry left behind.

There were nearly twenty infantry guarding the explosives, and if only five could leave, it would be an unequal situation, and Lieutenant Kawasaki deliberately said that he could take ten, which was actually equivalent to dividing the dozen or so infantry into two opposing groups, and the strength of the two sides was equal.

Kill yourselves! Just don't alarm the Chinese on the city wall! It would be better if there were no more left to the last one, the speed of the bean chariot with infantry on board would slow down, and Lieutenant Kawasaki actually didn't want to take any infantry with him.

Lieutenant Sato asked two of his subordinates to take over his pistol, and Lieutenant Kawasaki completely pushed the observation window open in order to show his "sincerity", and the infantry under Lieutenant Sato has always looked down on these old men hiding in the chariot, since Lieutenant Kawasaki opened the observation window, the infantry unceremoniously hung the melon grenade on their waists on the observation window opened by the chariot.

Lieutenant Kawasaki gritted his teeth with hatred for the infantry's presumptuousness, but on the surface he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction, and he asked in a very amicable tone about the hometowns and names of the two Japanese soldiers who were observing the window, as if they were not threatening him with weapons at all.

Lieutenant Sato relayed the words of the commander of the tank, Lieutenant Kawasaki, to the Japanese soldiers guarding the explosives, there is only half a chance to escape, and he is not yet fully sure, you must know that the power of the explosion of so many explosives is very amazing, and the armor will not be protected by the armor on the bean tank, and the survival of the charioteers in the chariot does not mean that the infantry on the armor of the chariot can also survive.

It's a vague hope......

"There are three minutes left!"

The Japanese soldier in charge of observing the burning progress of the fuse issued an alarm, the fuse had burned to the last red part, and the big explosion was approaching step by step.

"Have fun! Raise your hand if you're willing to stay! Now is not the time for humility! I will bring your obligations to your family in Japan, I can guarantee that! ”

Lieutenant Sato spoke very quickly, even if it was a bean chariot, it would take more than a minute to leave the central area of the explosion, and his time was really running out......

Eleven people raised their hands, more than half of all of them, and Lieutenant Sato didn't even have time to allocate the remaining places, he walked up to the two soldiers who had chosen to stay and took the buttons on their uniforms, which were the relics of the two Japanese soldiers.

"Move fast! Give the stuff to the person who is leaving, and when it's done, we'll get in the car! No time! ”

Lieutenant Kawasaki is almost crazy! There are still people who are willing to take the initiative to stay and die? He forgot that these infantry who were sent to guard the explosives were originally some daredevils, and his charioteers, who were left behind under the strict orders of their superiors, were naturally afraid of death.

"Hurry! What else is grinding! Hurry up and get on the chariot! ”

Lieutenant Kawasaki used his last resort, and at his urging, the two infantrymen guarding the observation window forgot their duties, the pistols and grenades were removed, and they still needed to climb on top of the bean chariot, and there was no extra hand to threaten Lieutenant Kawasaki.

"Lieutenant Sato! How much time do we have left? ”

Lieutenant Kawasaki's smile made people feel a little annoying, and Lieutenant Sato lowered his head as he ran, stuffing the relics handed over to him by the soldiers in his military uniform pocket, and when he heard someone ask, he subconsciously replied: "Two minutes!" How many more times do you want me to say it? ”

When Lieutenant Sato looked up and saw Lieutenant Kawasaki's sneer coming out of the gap in the observation window that was about to close, his heart suddenly tightened!

Something is going to happen!

Lieutenant Sato's wild run still did not change the fate of his inability to board the bean chariot, Lieutenant Kawasaki walked in a hurry, the three Japanese soldiers who had already climbed into the bean chariot were lost two of them by the rapidly starting chariot, and the infantry responsible for guarding the explosives actually only one person left!

Lieutenant Kawasaki, this bastard! He waited for this opportunity again!

The chariot that suddenly roared under the city wall immediately attracted the heavy machine guns of the Nanjing garrison, and as soon as Lieutenant Sato looked up, he saw several grenades with black smoke emitting from their tails falling! The Nanjing garrison has already discovered them! There was still more than 1 minute before the explosion happened, and it was too late!

"Yaga! Want to slip away? It's not that easy! ”

Lieutenant Sato took a melon grenade from his waist, pulled out the safety, and then slammed it on a steel helmet on the ground and threw it out, this grenade exploded behind the butt of Lieutenant Kawasaki's chariot, and the flames of the explosion were like street lamps, illuminating the entire bean chariot through the air!

Locust-like machine gun bullets instantly poured on Lieutenant Kawasaki's bean chariot, and the Chinese gunners should have already begun to aim, right?

This was Lieutenant Sato's last question, a Chinese wooden-handled grenade that exploded at his feet ended up his name, and behind him, the remaining daredevils were running back and forth in a rain of bullets, and it wouldn't be long before these people would be hit......

The only person in the infantry of the death squad who boarded the bean chariot was the engineer Ota Shinichi of the 3rd Division, when Lieutenant Sato asked those who were willing to stay to raise their hands, Ota Shinichi almost raised his hand, Ota Shinichi felt that he was the only one in the death squad from the 3rd Division, and he would definitely be left behind for the funeral, and his tone was forced by others to choose to compromise, it was better to put on a fearless posture from the beginning, at least let his family in Japan be proud of him.

Ota Shin's movement of raising his hand was a little slower, and by the time he pulled his hand out of his trouser pocket, Lieutenant Sato had already announced the end of the assignment.

The ecstatic Shinichi Ota took the picture handed to him by a veteran next to him and rushed to the front of the bean chariot and climbed up, because he happened to occupy a relatively flat steel plate behind the turret of the chariot, so when the chariot suddenly started, Ota Shinichi did not fall, and he became the only one of the daredevils infantry who managed to leave.

Just when Ota Shinichi felt extremely happy, Lieutenant Kawasaki in the chariot began to think about the Shinchi Ota on the armor of the chariot.

If the superior commander knew the fact that Lieutenant Kawasaki abandoned the death squad and fled for his life alone, he Lieutenant Kawasaki would not have enough to kill with ten heads, the charioteers in the bean chariot and Lieutenant Kawasaki are one, betraying Lieutenant Kawasaki is tantamount to betraying themselves, but the remnants of the death squad outside will not necessarily be on their side.

Lieutenant Kawasaki had already ordered the driver to make more sharp turns, which was to throw the infantry on top of the armor down, but he didn't know what part of the chariot the kid had grabbed, and after a few big movements, no one rolled off the chariot, which really made Lieutenant Kawasaki feel angry!

Can't the Chinese machine gunners be more accurate? Such a big living person can't even hit? Lieutenant Kawasaki couldn't help but start cheering for his enemy, if it weren't for the explosives, he would have exploded, Lieutenant Kawasaki really wanted to drive the bean chariot and go around the machine gun bullet rain of the Nanjing garrison!

I can only solve this big trouble with my own hands!

Lieutenant Kawasaki opened the top hatch of the combat vehicle.

"What are you caught? Is it reliable? ”

Lieutenant Kawasaki lifted the hatch through a crack, and then found the location where Shinichi Ota was, and Shinichi Ota's head appeared and disappeared in front of Lieutenant Kawasaki for a while, and it seems that this kid also used all his strength to not be thrown down.

Why do you insist on it? I'm going to do it myself!

Lieutenant Kawasaki watched Ota's gaze getting colder and colder, and Ota, who was desperately balancing on the armor, did not notice the danger of approaching, and he shouted loudly:

"Lieutenant! I'm not going to fall! There are bullets everywhere outside! You don't have to worry about me! ”

Lieutenant Kawasaki laughed again, this time he laughed like a poisonous snake! Simple boy! I'll be worried if you don't fall! I still think I've met a good person!

"Will you tell your chief everything that just happened when you go back?"

Lieutenant Kawasaki asked his most concerns, and although Lieutenant Kawasaki would continue to do so no matter what kind of answer Ota gave him, he still wanted to find some excuses for himself.

"Yes! I would say it! ”

The meaning of Ota's words was that he would tell his commander that Lieutenant Kawasaki had saved him, but in a hurry, he chose the wrong word, and Ota felt that he was expressing his gratitude, and the words in Lieutenant Kawasaki's ears changed flavor, and Ota felt that this kid was threatening him!

Lieutenant Kawasaki finally has a reason to kill!

"Lean over some! The turret can block your body, so it's safer! ”

Ota Shinichi shook too much, Lieutenant Kawasaki tried to aim several times but couldn't shoot, so he began to use words to induce Ota Shinichi to a suitable place for him to start, Ota Shinichi did not suspect Lieutenant Kawasaki's motives, he moved his body with difficulty on the armor, but Ota Shinichi didn't know that his head had slowly touched the muzzle of Lieutenant Kawasaki's gun!

"Boom !!"

Lieutenant Kawasaki pulled the trigger only to get back a loud explosion, and Lieutenant Kawasaki's bean chariot jumped a few times, which was the result of the shaking of the earth.

The bullet that had just fallen on the armor of the bean chariot like hail suddenly disappeared without a trace, and Lieutenant Kawasaki knew that it should be the explosives buried under the city wall that exploded, and when the bean chariot stopped shaking, Lieutenant Kawasaki immediately opened the hatch on the turret!

Masonry! Wood! It was raining in the sky, and the explosives sealed under the walls exploded with more power than the same amount of explosives loaded on trucks, and the smoke of gunpowder covered a section of the city wall, and the effect of the explosion could not be seen until the smoke cleared.

Ota Shinichi who was glued to the chariot also disappeared, and Lieutenant Kawasaki recalled the shot just now, and he thought that it should have hit Ota Shinichi directly in the head, and now that the trouble has been removed, the city wall has been blown up, and it is time to go back to receive credit!

Lieutenant Kawasaki happily got back into the bean chariot, and he and his subordinates began to discuss the rhetoric after going back, and the pleasure of "triumph" made the driver drive the bean chariot into a car, and Lieutenant Kawasaki almost found the feeling of a ride......

Song Xilian was pushed to the ground by a huge shock wave.

The heavy shells of the Japanese army have also hit the Ming city wall before, but compared with the current impact, even scratching is not counted, just now suddenly a Japanese tank from the corner under the city wall told to evacuate, at that time Song Xilian couldn't think of what the Japanese were doing, now, he understands everything!

The devil did not give up the plan to bomb the city, but changed to a more imperceptible method, now Song Xilian has no time to think about what mistakes he made before, since the Japanese carried out this organized operation, then now the devil's army should be coming up soon!

Song Xilian struggled to get up and ran to the edge of the city wall to look at the east bank of the moat, and a cloud of smoke and dust rolled in between the sky and the sun, no need to ask, it must be the Japanese chariot troops, Song Xilian can almost be sure now, behind these chariots is at least a brigade of Japanese infantry! They're coming for that part of the wall that's been blown down!

Song Xilian immediately ordered the herald and the commander to divert the troops behind the Huamen to the gap in the city wall to intercept it, and he himself led the troops on the city wall to the gap.

Heavy machine guns and mortars were lifted and walked away. The gap needs ferocious firepower to fill it, and Song Xilian's current demand for heavy weapons is that Han Xin's more troops the better!

"Tell the artillery of the Ming Imperial Palace to fire at the area in front of the break in the city wall! It will take time for our troops to rush over! One can only count on the artillery brothers! ”

He Daru's hearing miraculously recovered in the huge explosion just now, and he could hear that the first order after that was to ask for help from the artillery, the defense in the east of the city was aimed at the Japanese army from the Zhongshan Gate and Guanghua Gate, these gates, and now Leng Buding let the devils kill through the gap in the city wall, all the defense deployments need to be adjusted, all this will take time! Artillery, now it is necessary to buy time for the infantry with shells.

In view of the preciousness of the shells, the artillery position of the Ming Palace now belongs directly to Huang Haoran's city defense headquarters, Song Xilian and He Daru's emergency telegrams were sent one after another, Huang Haoran immediately ordered the artillery to block the Japanese attack route after reading it, and now it has come to the moment when the city is about to be broken, all the troops that can come in handy must go into battle, once it enters the stage of street fighting, the power of the artillery will be greatly reduced, it is better to use good steel on the blade now!

The smoke near the break of the city wall gradually dissipated, the collapsed city wall bricks revealed his true face, these city wall bricks are engraved with the age of firing and the name of the craftsman, the city wall of Nanjing has been repaired many times since the Ming Dynasty, and the city wall bricks used are not the same, this time the explosion will blow up a large number of city wall bricks in the Ming Dynasty, and these city wall bricks are located in the deepest part of the Ming city wall!

The fracture created by the Japanese explosives was more than 20 meters wide, and the collapsed city wall bricks were piled up on the ground to form a small hillside. This small hill still has a height of several meters, which is the last advantage of the Nanjing garrison.

The artillery bombardment of the artillery positions of the Ming Palace soon began, after two test projectiles, a large number of 75 mm mountain artillery shells fell, the target of the artillery was mainly the infantry behind the Japanese tanks, the tanks could not climb over the hill formed by the bricks of the city wall, and the devils could only rely on their infantry if they wanted to make a greater breakthrough.

Jing Shuxuan, the commander of the 18th Brigade of the Japanese Army, understood that the battle had reached the most critical moment, Song Xilian's estimate was still wrong, Jing Shuxuanshi put in three infantry brigades at one time this time, on the battlefield with a width of about two kilometers, the Japanese army invested more than 50 heavy artillery and more than 20 combat vehicles, and more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers screamed and began to attack the city with all their might, in the face of such a strong pressure, He Daru and Song Xilian felt that Guanghuamen was afraid that it would not be able to hold it!

"Hurry! Guanghuamen is in danger! Hope Commander prepares early! .......”

Huang Haoran changed the telegram to Shen Laoer and Wuhan, and the defense of Nanjing finally reached the final stage.

Matsui Ishine in the Central China Front Headquarters also received the latest battle report from Jing Shuxuan later, the city wall of Nanjing finally fell, Matsui Ishine jumped up after breathing a sigh of relief and issued several orders in a row, the 6th Division and the 18th Division must be asked to intensify the attack, as well as the 101st Division in Wuhu, it's time to give Ito Masaki a few whips!

Can't let Huang Haoran run away from Nanjing! This dangerous enemy must be eliminated! Matsui Ishine picked up the phone, this time he wanted the division headquarters of the 9th Division, Matsui Ishine wanted to talk to Lieutenant General Yoshika Ryosuke, and Jing Shuxuan should need reinforcements......

Song Xilian still couldn't get to the side of the city wall break, the Japanese army obviously expected that Song Xilian would concentrate firepower to guard this big hole in the Ming city wall, more than a dozen howitzers covered the city wall break, and the first batch of troops who rushed to the break were all hidden in the Japanese artillery fire!

The devil is going to work hard! Song Xilian and He Daru hurriedly arranged for the light and heavy machine guns and mortars on the city wall mountains on the left and right sides of the fracture to turn the muzzle and hit from the side, and a large number of casualties began to appear in the devil's charging team, when the Japanese army approached the gap in the city wall, the devil's howitzer had to stop firing, Song Xilian hurriedly let the machine gunner who had been waiting for a long time carry the machine gun to the port, the Japanese army's action was also very fast, the heavy machine guns on both sides fired almost at the same time, but in terms of rate of fire, the Nanjing garrison's Makqin took advantage of a certain advantage, Coupled with the condescending position, the dozens of devils who rushed to the front quickly turned into a pile of corpses.

The Japanese army is bound to win this time! They simply led the bullets pouring down from the city wall to climb up, and the hill formed by the wall bricks stacked on top of each other was very difficult to climb, as long as the devils on the city wall bricks stepped on the air or hesitated slightly, the bullets would immediately take their lives.

Seeing that the fire at the gap was very intensive, the Japanese infantry guns and mortars began to move forward, although these small-caliber shells had nothing to do with the solid Ming city wall, but the machine gunners on the city wall were very powerful, and in a few minutes, the losses of the heavy machine guns and machine gunners on the city wall were in double digits, and the seven or eight Maxim's dumb fire could not be made up for a while and a half, in the face of such a wide opening, the Czech and submachine guns obviously could not take care of it, Moreover, the submachine guns equipped with the 36th Division and the Special Service Regiment are still MP-18s with a very limited firing range, which makes them even more stretched.

He Daru led the officers and soldiers to continuously throw a large number of grenades and explosives bags into the gap, when the Japanese troops were relatively dense in front of the gap, a dynamite package could even harvest the lives of more than a dozen Japanese soldiers, but under such a tight blockade, the devils still desperately rushed forward, in order to make the defenders unable to concentrate their firepower on the breach, the Japanese army set up a large number of ladders on the walls on both sides of the breach, forcing Song Xilian to disperse his forces to defend.

The battle between the two sides near the breach lasted about an hour, and the unsustainable Guanghuamen defenders were finally climbed through the gap by the Japanese army, and the sun flag of small Japan appeared for the first time behind the Ming city wall.

Rushed to the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Military Police Regiment and the 2nd Battalion of the 99th Army Special Service Regiment behind the break to build two proposed defensive lines with sandbags and some sundries.

At the beginning, the devils who came out of the gap were a group of three or two, and these devils who escaped from death had basically appeared and were shot by the defenders behind the defense line, because there were few targets, the officers and soldiers behind the defense line still felt that the fight was not enjoyable, but gradually, the number of devils who rushed through the blockade line and appeared in front of the defenders began to increase......

When the second round of Japanese artillery bombardment of the city walls on both sides of the gap passed, the whole Japanese army began to appear on the high brick pile of the Ming city wall, and the 92-type heavy machine guns and crooked handles were erected, and the intensity of fire on both sides began to gradually approach, and some fast devils even rushed to the front of the defenders' first line of defense before being killed.

This is one of the signs that the city's defenses are about to collapse......

"Throne! Withdraw! This wall cannot be defended! "Supplementary brigade commander Li Qinruo ran from Guanghuamen Tower to Song Xilian's side with a rifle, the losses of the defenders were very large, and if they continued to fight, the 36th Division could only cancel the number. Li Qinruo didn't want the 36th Division, the "German Division", to disappear into the ranks of the Central Army like this, he could only come to persuade him to take the military seat, you must know that Song Xilian was the backbone of the 36th Division, if he didn't leave, none of the officers and soldiers of the 36th Division would dare to go down from the city wall!

"We have left so many brothers in Guanghuamen! If you just leave! How will you and I lead troops in the future! Brigadier Li! Organize death squads! Use a cluster grenade to jump into the gap of the Japanese army and die with them! Lao Tzu died on this Ming city wall! It's also worthy of the commission! That's right, Huang Haoran! ”

Song Xilian was a little disheartened at the moment, the defense of Nanjing had been fought for so many days, and after all, it was still the day of failure, although Song Xilian had long known that this would be the result, but after experiencing two defeats in Songhu and Nanjing, Song Xilian had a feeling that he couldn't see the light!

He now has the idea of burying himself in Nanjing!

Li Qinruo is in a hurry! That's what he's worried about! The troops are gone, and they can't practice again! Song Xilian and the 36th Division have weight in the eyes of the highest authorities, but if Song Xilian really dies in Nanjing, then the newly established 36th Division has nothing to do with the current "German Armament Division"! Li Qinruo didn't want the 36th Division to cut off the incense!

"Commander Song! Headquarters emergency call! Commander, let's alternately cover the retreat to the Arctic Pavilion through the White Lower Zone! Execute it now! ”

Just when Li Qinruo begged Song Xilian bitterly, He Daru ran over with the latest telegram sent by Huang Haoran, Li Qinruo knew that with Huang Haoran's order, even if Song Xilian was saved, the 36th Division would be saved, when Song Xilian accepted the order and began to arrange for the troops to retreat, Li Qinruo grabbed He Daru's hand and said excitedly"

"Our 36th Division owes Commander Huang! Our 78th Army owes Commander Huang! Captain Ho! Please tell Commander Huang! 36 Teachers will repay him for his kindness! ”

He Daru said to Li Qinruo in a deep voice: "The commander said that as long as the person who sincerely resists the Japanese, he is his brother!" Even a person like me, He Daru, can accommodate the commander, and the commander and the commander of the Song army have formed a friendship on the battlefield of Songhu! What else to say! ”

Song Xilian heard He Daru's words, but he pretended not to hear it, he glanced at the place where the Chengdong City Defense Headquarters was located, and his eyes were deep......

Li Qinruo sighed vigorously, He Daru looked at Song Xilian's slightly trembling body and smiled......
