The distance between the Japanese soldiers was approaching quickly, and in a blink of an eye, there were only less than one hundred meters left.

"Fight!" Liu Jiahao roared, and more than 20 officers and soldiers guarding the fort opened fire at the same time. The dense bullets were poured out like a storm.

The Japanese who were rushing forward with a bayonet fell down immediately.

The remaining Japanese quickly fell to the ground and raised their guns to fight back.

However, the Japanese's counterattack was basically useless, because the officers and soldiers of the Guard Brigade hid in the solid bunker, and it was difficult for the Japanese to shoot bullets into the narrow shooting hole.

Under the attack of the officers and soldiers of the Guard Brigade, the Japanese lying on the ground were shot and killed one after another!

Erbao didn't shoot a single shot. He actually wanted to raise the gun and shoot, but his arms were not in control at all.

Under the fierce shooting of the officers and soldiers of the 1st Battalion, the Japanese died one after another. However, the good times did not last long. The two sides' confrontation lasted for less than five minutes, and the Japanese artillery arrived!

Moreover, the 37mm caliber chariot defense cannon came, but the 150mm caliber heavy cannon!

After destroying the cannon groups of Guishan Fortress and Snake Mountain Fortress, the Japanese could finally unscrupulously push the cannons to the fortifications of the National Army and launch direct close-up shooting on the defenses of the National Army!

Seeing the muzzles of two 150mm caliber cannons raised, Liu Jiahao's hair was instantly raised.

"Retreat, retreat quickly!" Liu Jiahao roared hysterically, and the experienced veteran ran out immediately.

Only Erbao, the new recruit, was still standing there in a daze. In the battle just now, he did not shoot a single shot.

Liu Jiahao turned his head and saw Erbao running in a daze, so he rushed up and grabbed his collar and ran out.

Almost as soon as the two of them escaped from the bunker, two loud bangs came from behind. The Liu family howled, pushed Erbao to the ground, and then fell to the ground.

Then, a large amount of gravel and mud fell down.

The gravel and mud are still hot, making Liu Jiahao and Erbao bare their teeth.

Liu Jiahao hurriedly slapped the sand that fell into his collar, turned his head and looked back, and saw that the bunker that was intact just now and looked indestructible had turned into a pile of messy ruins!

The Japanese cannons continued to fire. In less than five minutes, all the nine bunkers that formed the left-wing Wudang Palace fortress were blown into ruins!

Fortunately, there are trenches between the bunkers!

Moreover, these trenches were also reinforced with grey!

Liu Jiahao immediately led more than 600 officers and soldiers from the 1st Battalion into several trenches.

The battle begins to enter traditional positional warfare from this moment! This is also the Japanese favorite combat mode!

Then, the Japanese convened two mountain artillery corpses to carry out a precise round of artillery bombardment on the Wudang Palace Fortress position on the left wing of Hankou!

After the shelling was over, the Japanese launched a second wave of attack!

This time, the Japanese infantrymen who were involved in the attack had two squadrons and more than 300 people!

In addition to infantry, there are also half a squadron and twelve tanks to guide the attack!

Liu Jiahao poked his head out, looked forward through the trenches, and saw more than a dozen Japanese tanks lined up, each guiding a team of Japanese soldiers to pounce.

Soon, the Japanese infantry and tanks approached within a hundred meters.

"Fight!" Liu Jiahao gave the order, and the officers and soldiers of the 1st battalion who were holding their positions opened fire.

However, the reality is extremely cruel. The bullets fired by the officers and soldiers of the 1st Battalion hit the armored vehicles of the Japanese tanks and bounced away, and nothing was found except for the jingling sound.

The Japanese tanks and the Japanese infantry hiding behind the tanks were unscathed!

With the endless jingling sounds, the Japanese tanks and infantry approached within fifty meters!

Some of the Japanese hid behind the tanks and began to throw grenades into the trenches of the National Army. During the continuous explosions, the Japanese soldiers were occasionally blown to the ground by the Grenades of the National Army.

One of the grenades exploded less than twenty meters away from the second treasure.

After the explosion, Erbao saw that the two veterans who were still shooting at the Japanese had fallen into a pool of blood. One of the veterans had a small hole in his right neck, and the bright red blood was shot out like an arrow. The other veteran was even more miserable. His abdomen was broken and a large gap was cut open, and his intestines and internal organs were flowed out.

The veteran was still not dead, screaming and stuffing his intestines into it.

Seeing this scene, Erbao suddenly felt a heat under his crotch, and he was so scared that he was so scared!

Erbao looked at the veteran in great horror, and he could not come back to his senses until the veteran finally died.

In the confusion, Erbao suddenly felt that his body was being lifted out of thin air. He turned his head and found out that it was the battalion commander Liu Jiahao who grabbed him with his chest and was dragging him back with difficulty!

Erbao really wants to say to Liu Jiahao, battalion commander, I can leave myself!

Unfortunately, Erbao found that his throat seemed to be blocked and could not speak!

As for his legs, he felt like he was filled with lead and could not move! Even his whole body could not move, and Erbao felt that he had lost control of his body.

Erbao was almost dragged back to the second trench by Liu Jiahao.

The 1st Battalion lasted for less than a quarter of an hour in the second trench and was soon forced to retreat to the third trench!

Erbao still did not respond and continued to be pulled by Liu Jiahao on his collar and dragged it to the third trench like a dead dog! He lay in the third trench for less than five minutes, and was then forced to withdraw back to the city.

Fortunately, there are also traffic trenches between the Wudang Palace Fortress and the city area, so the officers and soldiers of the 1st Battalion do not need to be exposed to the guns of the Japanese! Otherwise, there would be more than 600 people in each battalion, and no one of them would be able to retreat!

...

There is a villa about a thousand meters away from the Wudang Palace Fortress.

This villa is the command post of the Guard Brigade. The guard brigade commander Liu Yuanlin is watching the battle at the observation post on the top of the villa.

Seeing that the Wudang Palace Fortress, which was leaned by the guard brigade as a strong city, was broken through by the Japanese so quickly, Liu Yuanlin couldn't help but feel shocked and sweated. If Zhong Yi hadn't reminded him to prepare for blasting in advance, it would have been a big trouble!

But fortunately, their guard brigade was ready for blasting, but now it was enough for the Japanese to drink a pot of it!

Seeing that Liu Jiahao's 1st battalion had withdrawn from the Wudang Palace Fortress, Liu Yuanlin turned around and ordered the adjutant: "Tell me the order, and the engineers immediately detonated the Wudang Palace Fortress!"

"Yes!" the adjutant responded loudly.

Then, the adjutant hurried downstairs, grabbed the telephone and shouted: "The brigade has an order, and immediately detonate the fortress!"
Chapter completed!
