"Send a telegram to the headquarters and request reinforcements."
At this time, the headquarters of the Japanese Sixth Mixed Brigade was located in a ruined house.
The Japanese brigade commander, Shinichi Kunimori, was shouting anxiously to the Japanese radio operator next to him.
"Tell Commander Matsui that we are being besieged by the Chinese army in the Shen Ce Gate area.
There were at least tens of thousands of Chinese troops surrounding us.
We urgently need reinforcements.”
When the old devil Guosheng Zhenyi said this, there was a look of fear in his eyes.
He couldn't understand why the National Army suddenly had so many more troops.
Soon, the Japanese headquarters received a distress telegram from the 6th Mixed Brigade.
"Baga, Kunimori Shinichi is such an idiot, why is he retreating so slowly?
We were actually surrounded by the Chinese.
He still has the nerve to ask the headquarters for help."
After receiving this telegram for help, the old Japanese soldier Matsui Iwane was also very angry.
In Jinling City, other Japanese troops had basically withdrawn from Jinling City after dawn.
Only the 6th Mixed Brigade is now in a difficult situation.
But in fact, on this point, the old Japanese Matsui Iwane was really wronged, as was the commander of the 6th Mixed Brigade, Kunimori Shinichi.
After receiving the order, Kunimori Shinichi organized the retreat immediately.
But unfortunately, Zhou Pingkou had long wanted revenge.
The two battalions of Lu Dahai and Zheng Quezi made roundabout moves overnight and directly cut off the retreat route of the 6th Mixed Brigade.
After daybreak, when the 6th Mixed Brigade retreated, they found that their retreat had been cut off.
This time, there is no way to retreat.
Now, whether to save the remnants of the 6th Mixed Brigade has become a difficult problem facing the old Japanese soldier Matsui Iwane.
“Commander, the Sixth Mixed Brigade must be rescued.
Although, the 6th Mixed Brigade has suffered heavy casualties, with only the last two thousand people left.
However, they still cannot be completely wiped out by the Chinese.
Otherwise, this would be the first brigade-level combat unit of our empire to be annihilated by the Chinese army since the war began.
If this news gets back to our home base, we will be punished."
The Japanese chief of staff next to him hurried over and said to the old Japanese soldier Matsui Iwane.
"I know."
The old devil Matsui Iwane yelled angrily.
Then, he issued an order: "Send a message to the nearest 13th Division to send troops there immediately.
Rescue the 6th Mixed Brigade and make sure to pick them up.
Send some electricity to that idiot Shinichi Kunimori.
Tell them to hold on, the 13th Division has sent troops to rescue them."
"Hi!"
When Kunimori Shinichi received the call back from the headquarters, he immediately smiled.
"Yoshi, the headquarters has ordered the 13th Division to send troops to rescue us.
Commander Matsui, let us hold on.
Tell the soldiers this good news.
Repel all the attacks of those Chinese soldiers."
Kunimori Shinichi grinned and shouted loudly.
With the arrival of reinforcements, the old Japanese suddenly became more confident.
"Don't worry, Commander. Judging from the Chinese army's attack over the past half day,
Although the Chinese army is large in number, they are obviously a motley crowd.
With our elite soldiers, we can hold out for a few more days without any problem.
We will definitely be able to hold out until the 13th Division's reinforcements arrive."
A Japanese major next to him said with a smile.
Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, there were more violent explosions around, which made Kunimori Shinichi feel that something was wrong.
"what happened?"
he yelled.
Not long after, a Japanese captain rushed in and shouted in panic: "General, it's not good.
The Chinese have launched a general attack, and there are Chinese soldiers everywhere."
"Baga, block it, you must block it."
Unfortunately, this wave of attack was no longer carried out by the 1st Militia Division alone.
Instead, Lu Dahai and others led the troops and attacked personally.
The intensity of the attack was much stronger than that of the previous militia division.
Boom boom boom!
Rows of 60mm mortars on the ground fired at the same time, and the shells landed accurately on the roofs of several residential buildings opposite.
Clear all the Japanese heavy machine gun firing points above.
"Haha, Zhuzi, great fight."
When Lu Dahai saw that all the Japanese heavy machine gun firing points on the roof of the building in front were destroyed by mortars, he shouted with joy.
These were the Type 92 heavy machine gun firing points set up by the Japanese on the rooftops, forming cross fire.
The attacking Kuomintang soldiers suffered considerable casualties.
However, because of their location, the bazookas equipped by Lu Dahai and his men could not hit the firing points on the rooftops.
There is no way, the bazooka can fire directly and cannot hit the roof.
Previously, the Nationalist Army only had a small number of 82mm mortars, which were not capable of supporting the attack of small groups of troops.
Now, Ye Qingshan has purchased a large number of 60mm mortars from the Americans.
They were directly assigned to company-level units by Ye Qingshan, which just filled the blind spots in the artillery fire that could not be hit by direct fire from the bazooka rocket launcher.
"rush!"
Then, Lu Dahai gave the order to attack.
After losing the firepower of the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine guns on the roof.
The veterans under Lu Dahai, along with the new recruits from the 1st Militia Division, quickly rushed into the houses in front and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese.
Da da da!
After a close combat with the Japanese, the soldiers of the National Army took advantage of the firepower of the submachine guns in their hands and attacked and charged fiercely.
Quickly annihilate the Japanese in this building and occupy it.
After more than half a month, I gained experience in street fighting with the Japanese.
These veterans of the National Army had long ago figured out a way to take advantage of their firepower in street fighting.
"Quick, set up the new machine gun right here."
Not long after, a team of National Army soldiers cleared out the Japanese devils downstairs and quickly climbed to the roof.
This three-story Western-style building is the only commanding height nearby.
After they launched the general attack, they were ordered to capture this place immediately.
Several National Army soldiers dragged aside the bodies of the Japanese who were killed by mortar shells.
The destroyed Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun was moved away. Now, since the old soldiers of the National Army have American-made heavy machine guns, they no longer look down on the Japanese Type 92.
They set up their newly acquired American M1919A4 heavy machine guns precisely at the enemy's firing points.
The M1919A4 heavy machine gun is much lighter than the Maxim heavy machine gun previously used by the National Army.
An ammunition handler nearby quickly loaded the ammunition belt into the heavy machine gun.
"All right!"
A young machine gunner shouted.
An old soldier platoon leader nearby immediately pointed at the shorter houses opposite and shouted, "Beat them hard for me."
In several houses opposite, many Japanese soldiers were hiding, hiding behind windows and shooting at the attacking Nationalist troops.
"Go to hell, little devil!"
Beep!
Two M1919A4 heavy machine guns roared, and bullets were fired crazily at the Japanese in the houses opposite at a terrifying rate of rounds per minute.
In an instant, the Japanese soldiers hiding on the opposite side fell down in groups.
