Chapter 576
Seeing the Japanese tank that appeared again, He Yunpeng immediately looked tragic.
Because he knew that this time it was probably impossible to stop it, but he raised his wrist to look at the time. There was more than an hour left before the four hours limit given to him by Zhong Yi!
Therefore, if you can't stop it, you have to block it and block it with your life!
He Yunpeng roared shrillly: "Successful Squad!"
Eighteen veterans with cold expressions came behind He Yunpeng.
Long before the Japanese launched another attack, He Yunpeng selected eighteen veterans from the 2nd Battalion by drawing lots to form a suicide squad.
Eighteen veterans formed nine blasting groups!
This is the establishment of the suicide squad!
He Yunpeng's eyes fell on the faces of the two veterans in front.
The faces of the two veterans turned pale in an instant. No one could truly transcend the face of life and death!
He Yunpeng was also unbearable. If there was another way, how could he bear to let his soldiers die? However, now there is really no other way!
He Yunpeng immediately made up his mind and said sternly: "First group, go!"
Hearing the order, the two veterans in the first group immediately burst into tears.
"Brothers, I am lucky to be brothers in this life. Let's see you again in the next life!"
"Brothers, I won't see you again. If you can live to the end, don't forget to wear incense sticks during festivals and leave!"
After saying that, the two veterans each carried a bundle of five-pound explosive bags, quickly moved forward from the ruins on both sides of the street, and rushed towards the Japanese tanks rumbled forward.
"Cover!" He Yunpeng roared again, "Firepower cover!"
All the machine gunners stood up from the ruins and fired up!
The dense machine gun fire immediately poured into the five Japanese tanks at the intersection ahead, hitting the tank armor so that sparks splattered everywhere.
The firepower of the Japanese tank was immediately attracted and fired fiercely at He Yunpeng and the others.
He Yunpeng dodged and hid behind a pillar, then looked forward and saw that the two veterans in the first group had already been close enough to less than 30 meters away from the Japanese tank.
However, at this moment, the Japanese infantry following the followers discovered these two veterans.
The dozens of Japanese infantry that followed were fully fired, and they instantly piled up one of the veterans!
But the remaining veteran successfully avoided the Japanese firepower and rushed to the front of the Japanese tank that was leading, and then pulled the fuse of the explosive pack and stuffed it under the tank.
But at this moment, a short Japanese infantryman suddenly crossed the Japanese tank and reached out to grab the explosive pack from the veteran's hand. The veteran refused to let him go, so the two began to fight hard.
Seeing that the fuse was about to burn out, the Japanese suddenly roared, let go of the explosive pack, and rolled to the side of the street with the veteran in his arms. Then there was a bang, and the explosive pack finally exploded violently!
The huge shock wave generated by the explosion instantly flattened a house on the street!
However, the five tanks rolling along Tutung Street were unscathed!
"Fuck!" He Yunpeng punched the pillar with a hatred, then roared, "Second group, go!"
This time, the two veterans in the second group didn't say a word, and rushed towards the tank ahead with explosive bags. He Yunpeng shouted cover again at the top of his lungs.
...
Five Prison Palaces, Hankou Command.
Zhu Liangcheng hurried to Zhong Yi and said in a deep voice: "Zi Ren, the Japanese offensive has not diminished, and they have invested at least twenty tanks. However, the war defense artillery of the 2nd regiment that can destroy Japanese tanks, the DSHK large-caliber anti-aircraft machine gun has been completely destroyed. Now we can only organize suicide squads to blow up with explosives!"
Zhong Yi's face immediately became gloomy.
Street fighting has always been cruel. Not only does it consume a lot of personnel, but it consumes more weapons!
In less than two days, the only 37mm war defense artillery and DSHK large-caliber anti-aircraft machine gun in the Hankou defense zone that could threaten Japanese tanks had already lost more than half of it!
Although there are a small number of war defense artillery and large-caliber heavy machine guns in the Hanyang Defense Zone and Wuchang Defense Zone, Zhong Yi is very clear that even if the war defense artillery and large-caliber heavy machine guns in these two defense zones are transferred, it will be of no use!
The only way now may be to transfer the tank battalion hidden in Hanyang!
Zhu Liangcheng also thought of this and said, "Zi Ren, why don't you transfer the Tank Battalion here!"
"No!" Zhong Yi flatly refused and said, "The Tank Battalion must be left to the final counterattack, and it cannot move now!"
As a commander, Zhong Yi's mind has always been clear and has not wavered in his initial judgment because of the current difficult situation.
In short, defending Wuhan is not just to defend Wuhan, but to fight back, and to wipe out Nianyan's Second Army of Higakuru Miyaki in one fell swoop!
So before the counterattack, the tank battalion must not move!
Zhong Yi said again: "Old Zhu, tell He Yunpeng that even if all the 4th battalion is fought, even if He Yunpeng dies and becomes a ghost, he must guard Tuya Street for at least 45 minutes!"
"Yes!" Zhu Liangcheng stood at attention and turned around to convey the order.
...
Tuwu Street.
The last suicide squad also failed!
Seeing the two veterans lying under the front machine guns of the Japanese tank, and even the explosive pack could not be detonated, He Yunpeng was so heartbroken that he was bleeding!
These are all elite soldiers from the 4th battalion and the best soldiers under his command!
But no matter how distressed I feel, I must continue and I must also implement the orders of the brigade department!
I raised my wrist and looked at the watch. There was still half an hour left before the final deadline!
Looking around him, He Yunpeng found that there were less than thirty people left in the entire first company!
The 2nd Company, which guards the left and right wings, is probably not much better. Now, the entire 4th battalion will probably not exceed one hundred people.
After looking around and looking at the Japanese rolling over in front of him, He Yunpeng shouted miserably: "Grenade, who the hell gives me a few grenades!"
A veteran immediately handed over six grenades.
He Yunpeng immediately tied the six grenades into bundles, then opened the screw cap, then gathered the fuses together, and finally tied the whole bundle of grenades to his waist.
Seeing He Yunpeng like this, the remaining twenty veterans all looked tragic.
However, no veteran retreated. To this point, these veterans were already red-eyed.
At that moment, more than 20 veterans followed suit, tied grenades to their bodies, preparing to die with the Japanese!
Hundreds of Japanese infantry rolled along Tuwu Street under the guidance of tanks. In front of the Japanese, it was the last line of defense for He Yunpeng's 4th Battalion. The last moment was coming!
Chapter completed!
