Chapter 1991 Four Chu Songs Outside Lizhou City
"Your Excellency, the Chinese army has reached our city gate. We can't defend it anymore!" Just as the medical staff helped Sasaki deal with the wound and bandage, a Japanese officer was directly overturned by the explosion of a shell and rolled on the city tower. Then he limped and got up against the wound, ran towards Sasaki, and said to Sasaki as soon as possible.
At present, the opponent's artillery fire is very strong. Their team is covered by artillery fire, and there are heavy casualties. Until now, the combat power that can be concentrated is less than one-third.
However, their opponents were still charging towards the frontier positions, not only with artillery fire cover, but also with rows of machine guns to suppress fire.
In this case, it was impossible for them to defend Lizhou City, so the Japanese officers would tell Sasaki that the truth was told in front of Sasaki, telling Sasaki and others that they could not bear it. If they continued to fight, they would all be killed in battle and the city would eventually be thrown away.
"We have no other choice. If Lizhou City is lost in all ours, you and I must have apologized in front of the portrait of His Majesty the Emperor!" Sasaki knew very well that everything this Japanese officer said was true.
With the current artillery fire full of artillery fire, it would be a miracle that they would keep here, let alone defending this place.
But they had no other choice, they had to stay here, even if they wanted to die here in battle, they had to stick to it, because he could not afford to lose Lizhou City, and their entire army could not afford to lose.
So he could only say this to the Japanese officers, asking all the Japanese who followed him to hold on here and no matter what, they could not leave here.
"But, where are our reinforcements?" The Japanese officer also knew that they had no way out and could not leave this position, but he was very unsure at this moment. He didn't know how long they would continue to stay here, and where their reinforcements had arrived.
"Don't worry, the corps captain is already on the way back to the rescue. They need time, so we must stick to it until they arrive at Lizhou City and attack the Chinese people with us!" Sasaki said at this time, and pushed the medical soldiers around him away, then walked to the edge of his machine gun, picked up the machine gun, continued to stand on the city wall, and fired under the city wall.
Now four gates in Lizhou City are under attack. Although he does not know what the situation of the other three gates are, he knows that he has no soldiers to be transferred because the situation of the other three gates is also very serious.
So he could only take his remnants and continue to stick to the city walls and fight the Chinese army in the final battle. Even if the last person is left, they must not give up their territory.
The geographical environment of Lizhou City is very unique. Whoever has the hands of Lizhou City can control this large area, just like a bone stuck in the fortress, making people unable to breathe.
So Sasaki is clear about the importance of this place, the bullets of the Japanese wing headquarters also understand, and the Army Headquarters of course also knows the importance of this place. This is the main reason why Sasaki has to defend it at all costs.
The current situation is very unfavorable for Sasaki. They cannot even guarantee that they can continue to persevere, but they must continue to persevere, even if they all die in battle.
The gunshots continued and death did not end. Although Sasaki's desperate resistance was as worthless as a mantis arm, it eventually made Chu Huaichen and his team's attack difficult. The three combat teams were divided into three positions in the distance, middle and near, and cooperated with each other to form cross firepower, suppressing the Japanese machine gun firepower.
But the final price was that the three combat teams had paid a very heavy price. Fortunately, Chu Huaichen and his team had pushed the frontier positions forward fifteen meters according to the plan, and the situation of intimidating the Japanese had been fully formed.
The Japanese on the city tower were already panicked. They knew that the last time was not far away. As long as the artillery fire from Masanpao came again, the city gate would be broken and the defense line of Lizhou City would completely collapse.
But at this time when the situation was getting better, there was no movement on Ma Sanpao. It was not that Ma Sanpao didn't want this credit, but that he was also unable to do so.
As soon as the battle started, the first thing they consumed was their artillery shells. Now that the battle has reached this point, the shells of their artillery team have been exhausted, and there is no way to support another round of artillery shells. Only then did the Masanpao stop the artillery shelling.
Without the cover of artillery, if Chu Huaichen's combat team continues to rush forward, it will be a living target for the Japanese, and I am afraid that none of them will survive.
Therefore, when he did not hear the shell explosion, he immediately raised his right hand and asked the troops to stop pushing forward. Then he greeted a brother beside him and said, "Go and see what happened to Lao Ma? Why did the shelling stop?"
The artillery was very important to them. The Japanese commander. They had been successfully attacking and suddenly there was no artillery reinforcement at this time. He suddenly lost his mind, so he immediately arranged for someone to see what was going on with Ma Sanpao.
"Yes!" The brother immediately responded when he heard Chu Huaichen's order, then turned around and ran towards the back, intending to go to Masanpao as fast as possible to find out the situation.
At the stall where the brother left and went to learn about the situation, Chu Huaichen immediately asked the brothers to find a place nearby to hide, so as to prevent the Japanese from seeing any clues and taking the initiative to attack.
Although judging from the combat effectiveness of the commando team in Chu Huaichen's hands, it would not be difficult for the Japanese to deal with these guys if they were in Pingtan, these Japanese were guarding the city tower, and stuck their throats like a thorn. No one liked this feeling, and Chu Huaichen disliked even more.
Seeing that Chu Huaichen and the others did not continue to move forward, and the other artillery stopped shooting, Sasaki finally felt that his turning point had come.
In this situation, he has enough time to deal with the troubles in front of him, so Sasaki must seize the opportunity, adjust the deployment of troops and re-change the firepower position of heavy machine guns, so that Chu Huaichen and others cannot catch the key points to attack the firepower.
