Chapter 712: Unable to Let Go of the Hatred in My Heart
The attack cannot be without direction, and we must find the supply storage points.
The reconnaissance company has strong combat capability, which cannot be compared with ordinary troops.
Often a 3-meter-high wall can be crossed with just one leap.
Half of the scouts were flying around the city, looking for stockpiling points.
The other half of the scouts held their ground at the north gate to support the cavalry regiment in entering the city.
Soon, the cavalry regiment rushed into the city and advanced towards the city center in multiple directions.
The Japanese brigade left behind in the city was the elite of the Japanese Type A Kyushu Division.
They are well-trained, quick to react, skilled in shooting, and fearless of death.
The 3rd Division Cavalry Regiment carried hundreds of grenade launchers, which came in handy at this time.
"Boom! Boom!"
Hundreds of grenade launchers fired shells, and the streets were covered with artillery fire.
The Japanese captain was so angry that he yelled: "Baga! This is the firepower of a Chinese division. Quick! Use infantry artillery to bombard."
His chief of staff said anxiously: "Captain! If the weapons and ammunition in the city are detonated, we will be finished."
The Japanese captain shouted angrily: "Do you want to hand over the Empire's weapons, ammunition, food and supplies to the Chinese 34th Army?"
The Japanese Chief of Staff said anxiously: "I understand! Quick! Use the Type 92 Infantry Gun to attack."
The Japanese captain pointed at the radio operator and shouted, "Quick! Report to Commander Okamura that Miluo City is under siege by a Chinese division. Request for reinforcements to be sent quickly."
"Hello!"
The Japanese radio operator hurriedly received the order.
The Japanese chief of staff ordered the Japanese soldiers to push in the Type 92 infantry gun and attack frantically.
For a while, there was a loud sound of gunfire in Miluo City, and the two sides fought each other.
Led by the deputy company commander, 50 scouts gradually reached the east of the city.
Supplies were piled up like mountains in the east of the city, searchlights swept over from time to time, and the defense was tight.
There were several barbed wire fences surrounding it, and a squadron of Japanese soldiers were guarding it.
The Japanese dug fortifications at the entrance and set up a large number of heavy machine guns.
A squad of Japanese soldiers were patrolling around the barbed wire fence with wolfhounds.
Since it was a death-defying operation, none of the scouts retreated.
They crawled close to the barbed wire, ready to cut a small piece of wire and get in to blow up the supplies.
Unexpectedly, the wire was electrified and the soldier in charge of twisting the wire was electrocuted to death, triggering the alarm.
Alarms rang as countless Japanese soldiers rushed over.
"beat!"
The deputy commander of the reconnaissance company roared and raised his light machine gun to fire at the Japanese soldiers.
Some scouts threw hand grenades and hand grenades at the pile of supplies inside the barbed wire. The food and canned food stored outside could not be detonated at all.
The soldiers tied the grenades together and stuffed them under the barbed wire.
"Boom!" a sound.
A big hole was blown in the barbed wire.
"Charge in! Blow up the enemy's baggage."
The deputy commander of the reconnaissance company roared and rushed into the barbed wire without hesitation.
The soldiers of the reconnaissance company followed in his footsteps and went in one after another.
The Japs attacked from all directions, and soldiers died heroically from time to time.
There were only about 30 people left, who rushed into the storage point where supplies were piled up like mountains, shooting and throwing grenades at the piles from time to time.
However, the outer circle is full of food, canned food, cement and other supplies, while weapons, ammunition and fuel are still in the center.
The soldiers of the reconnaissance company continued to attack the center, and found that there were three bunkers in the center.
The Japs in the bunker fired crazily with heavy machine guns, creating cross fire.
The heavy machine gun bullets were as dense as rain, and the soldiers of the reconnaissance company fell in a pool of blood.
The fierce exchange of fire here is equivalent to telling Li Tong and others where the target is.
Li Tong ordered loudly: "Junior brother! You lead the 1st Battalion to continue fighting the Japanese. I will lead the 2nd and 3rd Battalions to the east of the city and blow up the Japanese baggage."
Wang Youming said hurriedly: "No! Senior brother! I'll go."
After he finished speaking, he shouted loudly without waiting for Li Tong to explain:
"2nd Battalion, 3rd Battalion, follow me."
"Junior brother..."
Li Tong wanted to call him back.
Wang Youming led two battalions to detour and head towards Dongcheng District.
However, they were soon blocked by the influx of Japanese soldiers and could not move forward.
The gunfire in Dongcheng District gradually became sparse, indicating that all the scouts who launched the assault had been killed.
At this time, gunshots were heard in the distance outside the city.
The Japanese soldiers who were blocking the enemy in the streets and alleys built fortifications.
If this continues, the suicide mission will definitely fail.
Li Tong ordered: "Brothers! Prepare to charge."
The commander of the reconnaissance company ran to his side and said with a smile: "Captain Li! I'm afraid the enemy's reinforcements are about to arrive. I will lead my brothers to charge first. See you in the next life!"
Li Tong said anxiously: "Brother! Don't worry, let's go together."
However, the commander of the reconnaissance company had already led his men into the hail of bullets.
Li Tong roared: "Bugler! Blow the charge!"
“Tick-tick…tick-tick!”
The charge sounded, and Li Tong led the soldiers of the 1st Battalion to rush towards the Japanese soldiers.
Under the cover of night, bullets flew through the fiery streets without a single gap.
From time to time, the charging soldiers fell down, but they still fought desperately to shoot at the Japanese.
The soldier who was charging on horseback jumped high and threw a grenade into the temporary fortifications built by the Japanese before his horse was shot and fell to the ground.
"Boom!" a sound.
All the Japanese soldiers in the fortifications were killed in the explosion.
The reconnaissance company fought fiercely and rushed forward, approaching the street where the Japanese captain and chief of staff were.
The Japanese captain laughed loudly: "Well done! All artillery fire at the same time."
"Boom! Boom!"
A row of Type 92 infantry guns fired, killing several people in the reconnaissance company, and the rest quickly dodged into the houses on the street.
The reconnaissance company commander jumped onto the roof and leaped across it, but was discovered by the Japanese machine gunner and hit by several bullets.
He leaped into the air and leaped towards the Japanese captain in the street below, detonated a grenade on his waist, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Baga! A Chinese soldier who is not afraid of death."
The Japanese captain and chief of staff exclaimed in surprise.
The two of them panicked and turned around to escape, but were held tightly by the reconnaissance company commander.
"Boom!" There was a loud noise.
The commander of the reconnaissance company took away the Japanese captain, chief of staff, and more than a dozen Japanese backbones around them.
"kill!"
Li Tong led the cavalry regiment and rushed forward, firing wildly and cutting a bloody path to Dongcheng District.
In Dongcheng District, Wang Youming led the 2nd and 3rd Battalions to the material storage point.
After paying a huge price, the garrisoned Japanese squadron was finally wiped out.
The gunshots outside the city were getting closer and closer, indicating that the Japanese reinforcements were about to arrive.
Wang Youming shouted loudly: "Brothers! Follow me and charge in and blow up all the enemy's baggage."
He led the way and rushed into the center of the material storage point. Seeing the mountains of weapons and ammunition, he laughed and said, "Great! If we blow up all the weapons and ammunition here, the Japanese 11th Army will have no chance of fighting. Haha!"
His guard rushed forward and said anxiously: "Commander! Brothers, get some weapons and ammunition before bombing."
Wang Youming said cheerfully: "Okay! Take..."
"Da da da!"
Three machine gun bunkers fired wildly at him and his guards at the same time.
Wang Youming pointed at the Japanese bunker and said intermittently: "There are still Japanese!"
"Revenge for the leader!"
The soldiers rushed forward and desperately threw grenades into the three bunkers, blowing them up.
Li Tong led the 1st Battalion and rushed over to Wang Youming, picked him up and shouted:
"Brother! Hold on. Quick! Medic."
Wang Youming shook his head and said, "Brother! It's useless. Help me marry the little daughter of the landlord."
After he finished speaking, his head tilted and he passed away suddenly.
Li Tong cried, "I don't want to marry you! You can't let go of the hatred in your heart even before you die. Woohoo!"
