Chapter 229
The heroic sacrifices of hundreds of officers and soldiers guarding the ruins of the periphery have won the most precious time for the core defense!
When the Japanese basically cleared the remnants of the Chinese army in the ruins of the periphery and were preparing to advance to the second line of defense of the 367th Regiment, they found that thousands of Chinese army officers and soldiers had already been on the line of defense, and hundreds of light and heavy machine guns had been mounted. The next moment, a dense rain of bullets splashed over like a storm.
Under the violent firepower of the national army, the Japanese infantry queue, which had just seemed fierce, instantly collapsed like a mud dam rolled over by a flood!
The Japanese finally underestimated the 367th Regiment!
As the defense line of the 367th regiment was compressed to the extreme, the firepower was also concentrated to the maximum extent!
In fact, the 367th Regiment is actually not short of firepower. The current number of machine guns of the 367th Regiment is enough to compare with the National Army or even a group of troops, not to mention the anti-aircraft machine guns!
...
A thousand meters away, the rooftop of the Central Mall Building.
The old Japanese devil, Shiro Inaba, really made his best. Not only did Shigeda Shigeto set up an observation post on the rooftop of the Central Shopping Mall less than two kilometers away from Xinjiekou, but he also brought his guard to the observation post in person, and also said that he wanted to supervise the battle for the Kumamoto United and Kagoshima United at close range!
The Central Mall was not the tallest building nearby.
However, after the 5th Battalion of the Japanese Independent Siege Heavy Artillery destroyed the Bank of China Building, the Central Bank Building and other high-rise buildings one by one, the six-story Central Shopping Mall became the tallest tallest building.
Therefore, from the rooftop of the Central Mall, you can see the entire Xinjiekou battlefield clearly.
At first, when Shiro Inaba saw from the cannon mirror, the Kumamoto United and Kagoshima United easily cleared the national army in the periphery. They were in a very good mood. Because the Xinjiekou, which had been stalemate for a day and night, finally had to make a final breakthrough, and the reputation of their 6th Division could be saved.
However, soon, Inaba Shiro's good mood disappeared.
Because, when the Kumamoto United and the Kagoshima United were preparing to continue sweeping forward, they were violently attacked by the nearly violent machine gun firepower of the Chinese army!
Because the firepower of the National Army's machine guns was too dense, the smoke produced actually covered the entire block. From a distance, it looked like the sky suddenly became dark. In the dark, the muzzle flames ejected from the National Army's muzzle and the ballistics generated when the bullets slashed through the void looked even more dazzling!
Among them, there are several heavy machine guns that are the most terrifying!
The flames of these heavy machine guns swept across, and the Japanese officers and soldiers were broken in an instant, and they were really broken, and their entire bodies instantly disintegrated into pieces of minced meat!
"Baga... Yaru!" Inaba Shiro almost burst out a national curse from his teeth, "The damn Chinese army actually hides machine gun firepower and anti-aircraft machine guns!"
"Hai!" Sakai Tokutaro, who was standing next to him, said, "It's so cunning!"
"However, no matter how cunning the fox is, it is just a fox after all! It will never beat a tiger!" Inaba Shiro's face twitched violently twice, and shouted in a low voice, "Order the chariot brigade and the independent chariot defense artillery brigade to provide support, and then tell Okamoto, that there is also Kanda-kun, that the 367th Regiment must be eliminated before noon!"
"Hayi!" Shigeta Shigeud, who was next to him, bowed his head and turned around.
...
When Shiro Inaba cursed on the top floor of the Central Mall, Okamoto Yoshinobu's steel teeth were almost broken.
Especially when he saw the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Infantry Battalion falling down one after another under the intensive machine gun fire of the National Army, Okamoto Yoshinobu felt so distressed that he was almost suffocating!
In contrast, Deputy Captain Yuichi Toya seems much calmer.
"The captain of the regiment, don't care about the number of casualties!" said Yuichi Tooya, "As long as you can completely occupy Xinjiekou and eliminate Zhong Yi's 367th Regiment, there is no difference between 1,000 or 2,000 casualties!"
Okamoto Yoshinori shook his head and said, "But the problem is, things are not that simple!"
"It is really difficult to occupy Xinjiekou and completely destroy Zhong Yi's 367th Regiment!" Yu Yu nodded and then changed his mind and continued, "But now, the defense line of the 367th Regiment has been compressed to the extreme, less than 500 meters from east to west, and only two hundred meters wide in north and south, and only such a small area left. The 367th Regiment is really an iron walnut. Our Kumamoto Regiment has enough confidence to smash it and swallow it into his stomach!"
"Tiya-kun, are you talking..." Okamoto said sternly, "Deploy the chariot troops and the war defense and artillery troops, launch a strong attack at all costs, and adopt a method of burning both jade and stone?"
"Sodes!" Yuichiro Tooya pointed at the beginning, "There is nothing to keep until now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a communications officer from the division headquarters hurried over and shouted: "The division headquarters has an order, and the Kumamoto corps and Kagoshima corps will launch a strong attack on Shinjikou at all costs. This time, the Independent Chariot Brigade and the Independent Chariot Defense Artillery Brigade will work together!"
"Hayi!" Okamoto Yoshino and Yuichi Toshiya were both bowed.
When he raised his head again, the two old Japanese men had a ferocious face.
...
At the same time, in the Central News Agency, the 367th Regiment Headquarters.
Chu Bangchang said: "You can't attack, you will die if you attack!"
"If you don't attack, you will die!" Shen Xian, the anti-aircraft artillery battalion commander, didn't care about joining the 367th Regiment, and he directly illuminated his opinion. "At present, the defense area of our 367th Regiment is only 500 meters from east to west, and even 200 meters from north to south. If there is no protection from the peripheral positions, the Japanese only need a wave of strong attacks to flatten the place!"
"We have machine guns, machine guns!" Chen Yaoting hissed, "We will kill as much as the Japanese come!"
"You are dreaming!" Shen Xian poured cold water unceremoniously, "The Japanese have more machine guns, cannons, especially tanks and war defense cannons! We can't defend them!"
"We can defend it, we can defend it!" Yuan Qiang yelled sharply.
"Shut up!" Zhong Yi said in a deep voice, "Battleman Commander Shen is right. If there is no external protection, relying solely on the core position, even the Japanese can't stop a wave of strong attacks! So the external one must be defended! No matter how much the price it pays, it must be defended!"
After pausing, Zhong Yi said sternly: "For the war to this point, we will not have anything else, we will only fill our lives! The 1st Battalion has been fought all, the 2nd Battalion has been fought all, the 2nd Battalion has been fought all, the 3rd Battalion has been fought all, all the soldiers have been fought all, and all the officers have been fought all, and all the officers have been fought all, and all the me, Zhong Yi and Hu, are on the heads!"
After saying that, Zhong Yi reached out and hugged the tiger's head.
Hutou stretched out his chubby little hand, hugged Zhong Yi's neck, and said in a slight voice: "Fight the Japanese, fight the Japanese!"
