Chapter 904: Fight to the last man!
A transport team had been dispatched from Jinyang City, led by the Chief of Staff of the First Army, Shinichi Yoshimoto, to transport special missiles out of the city. Of course, the news was immediately sent to Takaaki Murata in Qubei County.

Crying for food and in urgent need of a way to break the impasse, he immediately ordered Nishimori Shigenobu to fight his way out of the South Gate at all costs and to welcome the transport team into the city.

Moreover, considering that this batch of special bullets was his only chance to turn the tables, he also ordered the commander of the 151st Regiment, Kumagoro Hashimoto, to wait until Shigenobu Nishimori broke out of the South Gate, and then lead the 151st Regiment, which still had % to % of its combat effectiveness, to break out of the East Gate of Qubei County.

Attack our artillery positions as a cover to disperse our forces.

……

On the other side, Nishimori Shigenobu, upon hearing that the special bullets had already left Jinyang City, knew that it was urgent to leave the city.

Although he saw that our army's artillery was still frantically bombarding the South Gate, he still gave a firm order to his soldiers: the wounded should go up to the city wall for cover, and the others should follow him and fight their way out of the city.

Outside the south gate of Qubei County, soldiers from the second and third battalions were working hard to dig trenches.

Suddenly, several observation posts shouted at the same time:

"Comrades, the Japs are coming!"

The soldiers immediately dropped their shovels, squatted in the trenches, took out their guns, and began to prepare for battle.

At this time, Wang Quanfa calmly ordered:

"Light and heavy machine guns, aim at the city gate and fire!
Everyone else, get ready and wait for orders!"

Upon hearing this, the light and heavy machine gunners and recoilless gunners immediately began to fire.

“Sizzle…sizzle…”

"Ta da da...ta da..."

The infantry of two battalions and five companies, dozens of MG-5 general-purpose machine guns and hundreds of Type 42 light machine guns roared together.

The Japanese soldiers who rushed out of the city gate frantically were immediately beaten down like rape flowers encountering the invincible laser sword of the kindergarten god of war.

Although the Japanese commander Nishimori Shigenobu knew that it would be difficult to leave the city, he was still terrified when he saw so many machine gun flames and roared:

"Damn it! There are too many Tubalu machine guns!
How did they complete their logistical supply?
From yesterday till now, they must have fired at least hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition, right? ? ?

Will their bullets fall from the sky? "

If Yang Yuanshan heard this, he would probably snap his fingers and nod repeatedly: Bingo, you guessed it right, it fell from the sky!
What, you don't accept it?

If you don't accept it, die!!!
……

Of course, the roar could not stop our army's rain of bullets. Colonel Etsuki Miyajima, the commander of the 215th Regiment, saw that his last assets were rapidly dwindling, so he rushed over and asked Shigenobu Nishimori:

"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, the firepower of the Tubalu is too strong. The warriors can't rush out. What should we do?"

At this moment, Nishimori Shigenobu was hiding under the city wall behind the city gate, and was naturally extremely anxious.

Hearing that this idiot, as the captain of the wing, could only ask him for help, he immediately scolded:

"Baga! You idiot, don't you know how to command a battle?"

After cursing, he leaned his head to look into the city gate and saw that there was a river of blood and broken limbs were everywhere.

He shouted loudly:

"Warriors, hurry up, get down! Crawl forward!"

After hearing his orders, the Japanese soldiers finally came to their senses.

He threw himself into the blood and crawled out with difficulty.

It's no wonder that this move of theirs did greatly reduce their own casualties, and Miyajima Etsuki behind the city gate nodded repeatedly when he saw it.

I thought to myself: The Chief of Staff is still the one who keeps calm!

I was too panicked just now.

……

Wang Quanfa ordered the infantry to open fire, and He Yunfu did not allow his artillery company to continue wasting shells on the city wall.

Hastily ordered:

"Artillery company, aim inside and outside the city gate and fire!"

Upon receiving the order, artillery company commander Chen Sansheng immediately directed the gunners to adjust the artillery parameters and frantically fire shells inside and outside the city gate.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

……

Dense artillery shells hit the Japanese.

Now, there was no point in them lying on the ground.

The shock waves from the shells continued to injure and kill the unlucky Japanese soldiers.

Seeing this, Nishimori Shigenobu and others were naturally furious.

But there is no way.

He could only frantically order the wounded Japanese soldiers on the city wall to open fire to provide cover.

These wounded soldiers were equipped with a number of Type 1800 light machine guns and Type heavy machine guns. Although their firing at this moment posed no threat to the artillery company of the Second Battalion deployed meters away, it did put some pressure on the machine gunners of the Second and Third Battalions located to meters away.

Occasionally, a burst of fire could kill or injure a few of our machine gunners and ammunition handlers.

...Just when the fighting at the South Gate of Qubei County was in chaos, more than 151 remnants of the Japanese 2500st Regiment, led by the regiment commander Kumagoro Hashimoto, shouted the slogan "Black Card! Get on board!" and rushed out of the East Gate of Qubei County.

At this moment, there were only more than 300 soldiers from the first company of the second battalion on our army's position outside the East City Gate.

The company commander was Xu Erfei, the former captain of the reserve team of the supply battalion.

Later, because of his outstanding performance, he was praised by Yang Yuanshan and promoted to the third platoon leader of the second company of the second battalion.

When Xia Dayi, the commander of the first company of the second battalion, was promoted to deputy battalion commander, the position of the first company commander was given to him.

This allowed him to be promoted rapidly from a recruit to company commander in just one year.

At this moment, he was leading the soldiers in his company to dig trenches outside the East City Gate to besiege the Japanese in the city.

Suddenly, he saw the city gate suddenly open and a large number of Japanese soldiers rushed out, and his brows immediately frowned.

He quickly yelled:
"Comrades, the Japanese are coming out, hit them hard, don't be stingy with your bullets!"

While commanding:
"Communicator, quick!
Go report to the regiment commander, at least a thousand Japanese devils rushed out from the east gate!
The First Company of the Second Battalion is determined to fight to the last man!"

……

Yang Yuanshan's temporary headquarters.

He received a telegram from the second and third battalions saying that thousands of Japanese soldiers had climbed up the south city wall for cover, and another two to three thousand were rushing out of the south gate. He was very calm.

He smiled and said to Han Yang and Zhan Haishan beside him:
"It seems that we can withdraw some of the troops from the west city gate.

The Japanese should focus on attacking the South Gate next."

"Captain, the Japanese have nearly 4,000 troops covering and charging. Can the second and third battalions hold out?
Should we order the Second Anti-aircraft Artillery Battalion to send over a few guns to help?"

Zhan Haishan suggested with a worried look on his face.

"No need. Isn't it just a regiment of soldiers?
What's there to be afraid of?

Don’t even mention Lao He and Quan Fa being together.

Even if we send out a whole battalion to hold them off for 24 hours, there won’t be any problem at all!”

Yang Yuanshan waved his hand contemptuously.

He had great confidence in Wang Quanfa's command ability.

Not to mention, the firepower of the soldiers in the third battalion is also violent enough!

"All right.

So we just do nothing?"

Zhan Haishan nodded and then asked again.

"Let's see if the Japs have any other tricks!"

Yang Yuanshan knew that the Japanese would never sit there and wait for death, and they must have other means.

……

As soon as he finished speaking, a communicator rushed in with a panicked look on his face:

"Captain, a large number of Japanese soldiers came out from the East...East Gate!
Our company commander asked me to come back and report!"

"Good fellow! East City Gate?

What do the devils want to do? "

Yang Yuanshan's face turned serious and he sighed.

Then ask:

"What's the specific situation? How many Japanese soldiers have come out?

What weapons and equipment do you have?"

“There are at least a thousand people coming out now!

There may be more to come!
In terms of weapons, comrades saw heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, and a Type 92 infantry gun!
Our company commander said that he will fight to the last man!"

The correspondent answered hurriedly.

"Thousands of people? That's a big move!"

Han Yang beside him sighed.

Then he said seriously:
"Captain, we must provide support immediately!

The more than 300 people in the first company of the second battalion were outnumbered!
If we persist for too long, there will be heavy casualties!"

"We need support, but we are in such a hurry now and have no mobile forces!"

Yang Yuanshan nodded and frowned slightly.

At this time, Zhan Haishan hurriedly said:

"Captain, when Wang Ye left just now, he left the communications and bugle companies with us.

Captain, how about I take them over for a while?

Will you transfer a company from the 4th and 5th Battalions to provide support later?"
