1624. Chapter 1624: Defend Shaoguan


wiped the sweat on his head, and by the way, wiped the gunpowder smoke all over his face.Please search and read the most complete and updated novel Liu Tong looked at the retreating Japanese army outside the city, turned around and leaned against the cold stone wall of the bunker, and spit out a mouthful of turbid air."

Regiment commander, are you okay" A soldier next to him immediately walked over and looked at Liu Tong, who was very weak.Liu Tong shook his head, and asked bitterly with chapped lips: "How many times" The soldier scratched his head, and then smiled bitterly: "It should be the seventeenth time" Liu Tong smiled bitterly: "Dog, it's only afternoon, the little devil is so crazy, he actually attacked seventeen times."

I remember that at this time yesterday, they only attacked eight times" "Commander, the little devil must be in a hurry.Shaoguan is so strong, they can't beat it, they must jump to their feet in a hurry," the soldier laughed.Liu Tong got up with difficulty with his support: "Let's go, follow me to check other positions and see everyone's casualties." ”The two walked out of the bunker and headed for the other bunkers.This is Shaoguan, which was taken from the Japanese and guarded by two regiments of the People's Liberation Army in Guangdong.Liu Tong was the commander of one of the regiments, but the other regiment was left in the many sieges of the Japanese army.Starting with the regimental commander, most of the officers died on the battlefield.Liu Tong then collected the remaining troops and used the existing blockhouses in Shaoguan to jointly defend Shaoguan.Outside the city, there were about 100,000 Japanese troops.But in the city, in addition to Liu Tong's regular legion, there is also a newly formed militia regiment.The total strength did not exceed four thousand, half of whom were half-hangers.This is already the maximum force that the Guangdong garrison can give to Shaoguan, because they still have to defend other places, and the distribution of troops at this moment is already stretched.The General Headquarters also knew that the troops in Guangdong were very scarce at this time, and had begun to mobilize troops from all theaters.But it will take some time, so before the reinforcements arrive, only the 4,000 people led by Liu Tong will defend Shaoguan.In Shaoguan City, there is gunsmoke everywhere.Houses have been hit by shells to a greater or lesser extent, and people are busy on the streets to help put out the fires after the fighting has stopped.Liu Tong took a few of his guards to quickly check the integrity of each blockhouse."

Head Liu, come and take a look.We militia don't know how to use these weapons, so let's give us guidance" As he was walking on the road, he happened to meet a militia company commander.Liu Tong nodded, and followed the militia company commander with his subordinates.After arriving at a simple defensive position, dozens of militiamen were gathering here.They were fiddling around a new 43 heavy machine gun, fiddling left and right, but they didn't understand what to do with it.Liu Tong laughed, and immediately asked his subordinates to teach the militiamen how to use the Type 43 heavy machine gun correctly.After the soldier's manipulation, the militiamen soon understood the principle.Liu Tong asked the militia company commander by the way: "How are your casualties?"

The militia company commander sighed and said: "We have one company, one hundred and twenty-six people, and there are only forty left."

No, these are all just recruited today, hurry up and let them be familiar with how to use guns, so that they can deal with the attack of the devils" Liu Tong nodded deeply, these militias are all composed of local people.They were driven into the mountains once by the Japanese and suffered that inhuman suffering.Now that Shaoguan has been destroyed by the People's Liberation Army, they no longer want to be driven into the mountains by the Japanese as before.They must live with dignity, and even if they die, they must be Chinese who die with dignity.But fortunately, there are weapons left over from the Japanese army in Shaoguan City.There are both new and old weapons, and the ammunition is innumerable, enough to equip an army.The reason why Liu Tong and the others have been able to survive until now is that they can rely on these weapons and ammunition left by the little devils, plus the strong defense of Shaoguan, to resist the attack of dozens of times the army.While they were gossiping, suddenly there was a rumbling of cannons, and the Japanese outside began to attack again.The militiamen immediately took cover and waited for the Japanese infantry to rush up.And Liu Tong took the guards, braved the artillery fire, and ran towards the nearby pillbox at a high speed.Pillboxes are generally built on the hill, and they shoot from high down, and as long as there is a heavy machine gun, they can block the way of the devils.The People's Liberation Army and militia in the city are urgently mobilizing, but the devils outside the city have mobilized more than 40 artillery pieces.Together with the previous artillery, there were more than 100 guns in total, all of which bombarded in the direction of Shaoguan.Moments later, the entire Shaoguan was enveloped in artillery fire.Several mountains were full of blazing artillery fire, rubble danced wildly in the smoke of gunpowder, and the entire city of Shaoguan trembled.Outside the city, among the devil's troops, a devil's major general had a gloomy face, and a fierce light burst out in his eyes.He looked at the bombed Shaoguan deadly, and did not show a relieved smile because Shaoguan was shrouded in artillery fire at the moment.Instead, his fists were clenched, and he looked nervous.This person was the commander of the vanguard unit of the Japanese attack and the division commander of the Nangu Division.This is not the first time that such shelling has been carried out, and it has been going on for nine days since he came to Shaoguan.But after every shelling, it seemed that the defense of Shaoguan should have been blown to pieces.However, as long as he sent troops to attack, he did not know which crack in the stone the Chinese army would come out of, and it would be a wild sweep against his troops.In the past nine days, the Nangu Division has suffered very heavy losses, half of them have lost their combat effectiveness, and the remaining half of them have lost their fighting spirit as high as before.This morning, his commander gave him a death order, and if he couldn't beat Shaoguang within two days, he would shoot him directly.Nangu can be regarded as out of the way at this moment, for his honor and for his life.Even if the entire Southern Ancient Division was exhausted, he would not hesitate to do it."

Give me an attack, attack" Seeing that the bombardment was almost over, Nangu roared, brandished his sword, and commanded the troops to launch a full attack."

Kill" The devil who had been waiting for a long time, under the cover of artillery fire, frantically launched a new round of attack on Shaoguan.It's just that compared to the previous seventeen attacks, this time it was almost all the troops of the Nangu Division, and it was a fierce attack launched together.Liu Tong had already come to a pillbox on the mountainside at this moment, and looked through the machine gun hole, only to see the devils rushing towards Shaoguan like ants."

Are you going to fight, little devil?"

Liu Tong showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, turned his head to the correspondent and said, "Tell the troops, don't fire for the time being."

Let the artillerymen prepare, as soon as the devil is close, immediately open fire" "Yes" The correspondent immediately turned around and left.Inside the city, the devils left more than a dozen artillery pieces.So Liu Tong and the previous regiment commander who died before deployed all the soldiers who could use artillery in the two regiments and asked them to be transferred as artillerymen.Because the battle was so fierce, Liu Tong asked the troops to collect the gasoline barrels left by the devils two days ago.Make the gasoline barrels into cannon barrels, and put the explosives packets inside.This is a local method, but it can bomb all the devils within two hundred meters, and the power is greater than that of a mortar.As for the many mortars left behind by the devils, those are all melee treasures.Liu Tong asked the troops not to use it easily, and when the devils really hit the city, they were bombing them by surprise.Seeing that the enemy was getting closer and closer, the artillery lookout post let out a loud roar.Suddenly, more than a dozen artillery pieces and dozens of gasoline barrels roared in unison.The cannonballs were mixed with explosives packets, and they blasted together towards the devils who were coming from outside the city.Huge sparks erupted in the team of the boom devils, and many devils were blurred by the explosion, and people turned on their backs.But more devils are still yelling, holding guns and launching an attack on Shaoguan.In the eyes of these arrogant devils, Shaoguan is just a small city, and it shouldn't stop them at all.They were to launch the furious charge and then kill all the living people in Shaoguan City.The roar and bombardment of artillery continued to explode in the team of devil impact, but it could not stop the attack of the entire Nangu Division.Soon, the vanguard of the Japanese army rushed to the part close to the city.The heavy machine guns were immediately set up and fired at the positions of the militia in the Shaoguan area."

Fighting" Liu Tong saw that the militia's position was suppressed by the devil's fire, and immediately gave the order for all troops to open fire.DadaA rain of bullets like sharp swords swept fiercely towards the devil's machine gun position.At this moment, the devils felt that they were full of fire points in all directions.Behind a nondescript rock wall, there may be a machine-gun fortress.The devils wanted to suppress the firepower, but the bullets hit the rock wall, which did not pose a threat to the PLA behind the rock wall.But at this moment, the devil's artillery fire suddenly reversed direction, and all of them bombarded the exposed firepower points of the PLA.Half an hour later, many of the fire points were blown up by the devil's artillery fire.Not only was the suppression of fire gone, but even the soldiers who were hiding behind those bunkers were buried alive by the collapsed bunkers.The pressure of the attacking enemy suddenly lightened, and a middle Zuo Wawa shouted, commanding the troops to rush directly to Shaoguan.At the same time, a group of devils rushed up from behind, deployed firepower, and suppressed the militia in front.The fierce rain of bullets caused the militiamen who had no combat experience to fall to the ground one by one, and they were quickly suppressed and could not even lift their heads.Just as the devils were about to rush to the militia position, countless stones and logs suddenly rolled down from the mountains on both sides.The earth was shaken by a loud rumbling noise, and the devils only felt a tremble under their feet.Immediately afterwards, countless stones and logs smacked at the attacking Japanese troops, blocking their attack for a moment.In the city, the silent mortars opened fire violently, hundreds of mortars fired at the same time, and the forward troops of the Japanese army who were bombed suffered heavy casualties, and the troops who followed the attack hurriedly retreated, where did they dare to hit the muzzle.Liu Tong looked at the gradually withdrawing troops, and once again spread weakly to the ground."

Eighteen times, eighteenth time," Liu Tong muttered in his mouth.He was thinking, when will the reinforcements come aa2705221:
