"Is this still Guanghuamen?" When Zhao Shuxing looked at the city tower building that had been blown up and destroyed on the city gate, he didn't recognize that this was Guanghua Gate for a while.

However, Niu Yi did not slack off, and after a few gestures, the two incomplete companies hurried into the designated defensive position, which was an ancient city wall, speckled and intact with the marks of time.

It was close to noon, and it was 11:13 a.m. on December 9, 1937.

Even if Meng Xiang flashed his wings a few times, the thick history was offset by various external forces, and he still relied on his own habitual surname to run along the original track.

In the early morning of December 9, the Lesaka troops of the Yue army still occupied the Daxiao Field outside the Guanghua Gate, and then arrived at the Guanghua Gate, and directly launched a fierce battle with the Central Army defending the city. But it was repulsed by the defenders.

When they arrived, there was just a short pause. As soon as they came up, they began to busily rest and recuperate the fortifications.

"Where are you?" Someone asked.

"The first battalion of the *** security regiment." Niu Yi straightened up and replied.

"Security Corps? Why did the local militia also come up? No one in town? The man walked over with a face blackened by gunsmoke, looked at the soldiers who were still busy around him, and then looked at the straight Niu Yi who was standing, and said in a slightly slower tone, "What about the documents?" ”

"Here, here!" Zhao Shuxing ran over in small steps, "I was looking for someone to report to me just now." ”

The man took the appointment and the relevant certificates, glanced at it a few times, frowned, and said, "Who arranged for you here?" Still involved in combat? Don't know where this is? This is the battlefield, look over there! He pointed sharply at the corpses piled up in a row not far away, and shouted,

"Do you know how many people died in one morning? I haven't even counted them yet. My soldiers, my brethren, all his * are lying there! As he spoke, his tears swept away, and two white marks appeared on his blackened face.

Niu Yi is still silent.

The man turned his head and looked into the distance silently, and after wiping two handfuls of his cuffs around his eyes, he turned around and smiled: "It's good that you can come here." However, this is not the place for you to stay, I am Huang Huamin, the commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment of the 259th Brigade, and I was in charge of the defense of this section before. You go over there and find Brigade Commander Yi, and he will arrange for you. After saying that, he gave a military salute, ignored them, looked up with his face, and walked slowly towards the pile of corpses that were getting longer and longer.

"You guys go to the back and carry the ammunition!" When Yi Anhua saw the transfer of the first battalion, he also frowned, and quietly arranged them to the back. With the assistance of artillery and aircraft, the army attacked very fiercely, but in the narrow city gate area, there were not so many people arranged, and it would be even worse for a local militia group to retreat in a panic.

Niu Yi saluted without saying a word, and retreated with Zhao Shuxing, who was accompanying him. Obedience is the duty of a soldier! On the premise of not conflicting with the commander's orders, Niu Yi chose to obey.

"The devil is up again!" Before they could take a few steps, someone shouted for a warning.

"Boom Boom" The first to reach the city gates was the bombardment of artillery. There is no concession here, and the artillery bombardment is unscrupulous.

After being soaked in the blood of generations, the blue-brown masonry has begun to gradually reveal a dull demon red. Today's blood donations all over the ground seem to have activated it again, and it is constantly trembling under the bombardment of artillery. But the brick and earth skeletons left by the ancestors eventually withstood the bombardment of the shells. Although the castle tower on the upper floor of Guanghua Gate is quite damaged, it continues to stand majestically as it has been for hundreds of years, fulfilling the function of the guardian of Nanjing City.

Although his heavy artillery has not yet been transported, the ordinary artillery has made the Central Army have no power to fight back. At this time, they can only be beaten passively, with the help of the ancient city walls to counteract the threat of shrapnel.

Niu Yi and Zhao Shuxing quickly ran back to their defensive positions, and the remaining fighters had already begun to block under the arrangement of Rat San. After replenishing the ammunition of the first battalion, Rat Yi began to be busy with other affairs. After all, the plan and arrangement elsewhere are the key, but Zhao Shuxing was left to help Niu Yi deal with the sequelae after he broke through.

The 36th Wing of the 9th Division suffered a lot in the morning attack, and as they advanced all the way, they encountered a heavy head-on blow under the city gates, killing many people. But victory is in sight, and it has arrived at the gate of the capital of China, and everyone who is excited and excited has not slackened at all. After the adjustment, they immediately began a new round of attacks.

The soldiers in front of the sudden attack were low, constantly bending their offensive lines, repeatedly letting the bullets of the soldiers of the Central Army miss. In many film and television works in later generations, the scene of being a target is not visible at all.

"Phew!" After Snake Seven fired a shot, he immediately retracted and slowly moved to another battlement.

"The nineteenth!" Xiao Hefei shouted excitedly.

He and Liu Dazui could no longer find their own team. As the team retreated in a hurry, they were caring for cigarette pouch veterans who had been treated by the medical team of the 1st Battalion. They remained in the first battalion for the time being. Liu Dazui followed Zhao Shuxing to run errands, and Xiao Hefei volunteered to follow Snake Qi's side.

After Meng Xiang's adjustment, the clones are the same as ordinary people in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation, except for their lack of rich expressions and their mental retardation in social knowledge. In the barracks, it is not suspicious. Moreover, Meng Xiang's next plan is to recruit a large number of ordinary soldiers. So after Meng Xiang's approval, Xiao Hefei stayed by Snake Qi's side and became a recruit of the vanguard army.

In these days, it is normal to change teams. Xiao Hefei doesn't care much either, on the contrary, he prefers to stay in the vanguard army where no one bullies him, and the kind of nutritious meal that is full of flowers and greens still tastes good.

At the beginning of the battle, he couldn't help except deliver ammunition and supplies. In his spare time, he began to count the results of the Snake Seven. Just now on the city wall, he held up a telescope and counted that Snake Seven had killed five little devils. With the protection of the city wall, condescending, Snake Seven has an advantage over the Archer who has begun to pay attention to him below.

"Watch over there!" Hideo Nagagawa pointed to the head of the city guarded by the first battalion, and Yanagi Qingmen next to him looked over with a telescope, just in time to see the head of an imperial soldier being burst open like a watermelon, mixed with blood and the white brain flowing out of the cyan broken veins made his heart tighten. After a quick twitch of appetite, he quickly moved the mirror to the city wall.

There were no visible human bodies visible, and the walls gave them the best cover. The soldiers there were well-trained, and after a quick shot, they retracted their bodies. The most obvious thing on the entire section of the city wall is only a red flag painted with a large four, small and five yellow stars.

(Tomorrow will continue three watches)
