Li Yuexuan regretted not opening his auxiliary panel earlier to take a look. After all, he hadn't fought on the front line for a long time and subconsciously ignored this point.

But it was not too late, he immediately called the messenger beside him and asked him to call Zhang Dabiao. So, the company, which had just run more than 200 meters and had not yet reached the bridge, was called back.

"Battalion Commander, what's going on?" The company commander looked confused. How could he not understand the principle of making a concerted effort?

At this moment, more than a dozen grenades from grenade launchers flew out from the city, and then exploded outside the city gate and by the river, quickly emitting large clouds of smoke.

"Damn it, poison gas bomb!" Li Yunlong shouted loudly when he saw the smoke spreading, which showed that he also knew the harm of poison gas bombs.

However, Li Yuexuan was not worried that the poison gas bombs would affect the attacking team, because both the soldiers in the armored vehicles and the quick reaction company had gas masks seized from the Japanese.

So, when the poison gas that the Japanese thought was their winning weapon began to spread, the soldiers at the city gate and the river immediately put on their gas masks, which only took a few seconds. Then, after a few minutes, the poison gas was blown away by the river wind and could no longer exert its power.

"Fortunately, the Japanese didn't use mustard gas, but tear gas..." Seeing this scene, Li Yuexuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although he was not worried, he still had to take a deep breath.

"Hey, our captain is really good at predicting things. The Japs actually released poison gas at this time!" Seeing that the poison gas did not affect their own team, many commanders breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, continue the attack!" When the smoke was no longer visible and he felt that it was about time, Zhang Dabiao in front gave the order to attack again.

"Baga... get the team in the bunker ready. If the Eighth Route Army attacks the city, fight back immediately!" Inside the city, Nakajima Tokutaro learned about the situation ahead and gave up the idea of ​​using poison gas.

At this time, the company in front attacked again and rushed forward towards the stone bridge over the river.

Just as the soldiers ran onto the bridge and were passing quickly, the Japanese bunker hidden in the rammed earth layer of the city wall finally started to move. Half a meter above the ground, some bricks were pushed open with great force, revealing black holes for firing, followed by the unpleasant sound of the Type 92 heavy machine gun.

On both sides of the city gate, 8 bunkers opened fire at the same time. This was really incredible!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... The bullets formed a line and fired at the company, catching the comrades off guard and falling to the ground one after another.

"Get down..." someone in the team was shouting, but more people followed their trained instincts, simply lay down on the ground, and started shooting.

"Alas..." Li Yuexuan sighed in the command post. He knew that he could not do much. He could not say that he had a perspective eye and could see through the situation in the city, right? He would not believe it if he told others. Fortunately, the first company followed the principle of three-three attack and did not rush forward in a swarm, but kept a sufficient distance. However, despite this, at least 20 soldiers fell in a pool of blood in the sudden attack of the devils. This was the largest casualty since the battle began today.

Now that the Japanese's real bunker has appeared, the entire battlefield has become clear, and Li Yuexuan decided not to intervene too much!
"They are just some unexpected bunkers. The Japs have only learned half of what we have learned. They know how to dig holes in the rammed earth walls to serve as bunkers, but they haven't mastered the artillery. "In front, Li Yunlong looked at the bunkers and curled his lips. "Tell the artillery company to fire out the pepper bombs and see how the Japs respond! Tell the blasting team and the assault team to hold their breath and rush over when the smoke starts to rise."

Li Yunlong's mind was working quickly, and he immediately thought of a way to deal with it. Of course, it is also possible that he had thought of a solution a long time ago and used it now.

Boom, boom, boom... The two artillery companies assigned to Li Yunlong's command immediately fired the pepper bombs on hand. Good shells exploded in front of each bunker, and soon thick smoke covered the bunkers.

"Gas masks..." In the bunker, the Japanese soldiers also put on their gas masks without delay. At this moment, in the two bunkers near the city gate, they felt two iron lumps thrown behind them. Before the Japanese soldiers could react, the iron lumps exploded, and the fragments scattered, and the Japanese soldiers in the bunkers suddenly stopped moving.

Obviously, this was not done by the Eighth Route Army on the front line, but by the commandos who broke into the city. As for why this happened, the Japanese had a bunker, but they didn't use it at the first time?

Actually, the Japanese were quite clever and knew the principle of building a plank road in the open, so when the Eighth Route Army was preparing to attack the city, they did not deploy many troops in the top bunkers and secret bunkers, but let the limited troops enter the secret bunkers on the bottom. These secret bunkers were secretly dug by the Japanese after learning the advanced experience of the base.

The Japanese had good construction skills. They dug these bunkers quickly and used steel and concrete to make the supporting structure, which was very strong. However, when the Japanese saw the armored vehicles coming, they were at a loss. Machine guns could not deal with armored vehicles. The Japanese knew this very well, so they did not dare to shoot at the first time, but instead placed their hopes on poison gas.

Then, the poison gas didn't work as it should, and the Japs thought it was time to move the bunker... Anyway, it was the armored vehicle assault that made the Japs lose their composure for a moment, mainly because they had too little experience.

How should I put it? As a proper field division, the Japanese didn't have much armor, and the enemy they faced didn't have much armor either. So, their anti-armor experience was almost zero...

In short, they were in a daze and let the armored vehicles enter the city, and also let dozens of commandos from the quick reaction company enter the city.

The commandos were all elite veterans. When they heard the machine guns in the bunker, they naturally had to solve it! So, the armored vehicles covered the advance, and the soldiers found the back door of the bunker and threw grenades directly in... In short, this was a confusing account, and everyone fought a confusing battle!

However, as the eight bunkers hidden by the Japanese inside the city wall were destroyed one by one, the attack team of the independent regiment in the south no longer had the power to stop the enemy. They quickly rushed into the city, occupied the city gate, and then dispersed to the surrounding areas of the city wall, intending to quickly capture the city.

"General, it's all over. We only have two squads left. We have gathered all the combatants! As for the Imperial Army and the Detective Squad, the Imperial Army was wiped out when they left the city today. The Detective Squad has gone into hiding and can't be found! So, let's break out. We still have a chance..." (End of this chapter)
