The usual routine of the Japanese attack is to bombard with artillery and charge with infantry. After the artillery bombards the infantry, charge again. After the infantry charges, the artillery bombs again, and then continues with the next cycle until the opponent is finally defeated! But this time, the Japanese were uncharacteristically unprepared. Instead of preparing for artillery fire, they went straight into the infantry charge as soon as they came up.
This is not because the little Japanese has changed his temper, but because the Japanese artillery is out of shells.
As the 170th Infantry Regiment remaining in Pucheng was completely wiped out, the road from Pukou to Meixian was interrupted. The ammunition originally supplied to the Osaka Division that was stored in Pukou could not be transported. The ammunition reserves of the Osaka Division were already exhausted. It's urgent. The offensive in recent days has basically been maintained by aviation airdrops.
In order to airdrop supplies to the Osaka Division, resulting in a fuel shortage, the Central China Condemnation Army was unable to even dispatch bombers and fighter jets to provide air fire support to the Kumamoto and Osaka Divisions.
But even so, even if the Condemnation Forces sent by Central China tried their best, they could only meet the basic combat needs of the Osaka Division. It was impossible to airdrop enough artillery shells!
Therefore, before breaking through the Qingniuling defense line, the Osaka Division could still get certain artillery support from the 8th Independent Tank Regiment. However, after breaking through the Qingniuling defense line, the tanks of the tank regiment could not do anything. After crossing Qingniuling, it was no longer possible to provide artillery support to the infantry of the Osaka Division.
Therefore, from the moment the Wakayama Regiment crossed Qingniuling, they never received a supplement of artillery shells.
After two days and nights of fierce fighting, the few artillery shells carried by the army have long been exhausted. Therefore, this time the artillery preparations were omitted, and the infantry charged decisively.
However, even without artillery preparations, the Japs' attack was still extremely fierce.
Although most of the special agents brought over by Chief of Staff Luo Zhongyi from the Central Jiangsu Military Region were veterans from three years of arduous guerrilla warfare, they had not received specialized street fighting training like the officers and soldiers of the Dameishan Military Division. Therefore, in actual combat, they are not as capable as the veterans of the Dameishan Military Division.
Basically, the veterans of the Secret Service can only do one-for-one replacement.
The problem is that there are less than 200 people left in the Central Jiangsu Special Agent Regiment, but there are still more than 700 people in the Wakayama Regiment!
As for the militia and women's corps other than the Jiangsu-China Special Agent Regiment, it can only be said to be better than nothing. The student soldiers from the youth training camp are quite capable of fighting, but they have withdrawn from the battle due to too many casualties.
The brutal street fighting only lasted for half an hour, and the defense line of the Central Jiangsu Special Agent Regiment began to become tense.
Gan Zhongquan, an old Japanese soldier, was indeed quite capable. He discovered the flaw of the defenders very keenly and immediately led an infantry squad to rush in through the gap in the Suzhong Special Agent Regiment. Luo Zhongyi quickly realized the danger and immediately stepped in from the left and right. Twenty veterans were mobilized from both wings and launched a tit-for-tat counterattack against the Japanese.
The Chinese and Japanese armies soon encountered each other in a narrow alley, and a hand-to-hand battle broke out.
Luo Zhongyi was also a master of assassination. Brandishing a big knife, he rushed into the Japanese soldiers like a tiger rushing into a flock of sheep.
A Japanese soldier rushed over and stabbed Luo Zhongyi in the chest with a knife. Luo Zhongyi did not dodge and faced him with the knife. There was only a click, and the Japanese's 38-piece cover was blocked by Luo Zhongyi's large knife. The knife still had its remaining power, and then slashed through the devil's face. Blood splattered, and half of the devil's head was cut off, from the teeth to behind the ears, and the upper half of the head was cut off. The remaining brain tissue in the skull cavity is clearly visible.
Luo Zhongyi cut off half of the devil's head with a knife, but without a moment's pause, he stepped over from the side in one step. While stepping over, he also pushed the devil with his shoulder, and the little devil fell to the ground.
Another Japanese officer held up a saber and roared at Luo Zhongyi. There were still three steps away, and the Japanese officer jumped up high, then raised his saber high and slashed at Luo Zhongyi's forehead with the force of his sword. It was slashed hard, Luo Zhongyi smiled, and just dodged.
The Japanese officer slashed the air with his sword and immediately stumbled, almost falling to the ground.
Before the Japanese officer could regain his balance, Luo Zhongyi's large blade was slashed like lightning. The Japanese officer couldn't dodge and instinctively raised his hand to block. The next moment, the Japanese officer's left hand was cut off at the wrist. The palm of his hand flew several meters away, but Luo Zhongyi's large knife still had its remaining power and cut open the Japanese officer's abdomen from the middle. The Japanese officer's intestines, stomach, and internal organs immediately gurgled out of the gap.
The Japanese officer did not die, but he was frightened to death when he saw his intestines, stomach, spleen, liver, etc., gurgling out from the burst abdominal wound. Oh, the scream, that scream is as miserable as it can be.
Luo Zhongyi never paid attention to the Japanese officer again, because he knew that the Japanese officer could not survive.
Luo Zhongyi quickly found a new target in the chaos. It was an old devil who was obviously old. Although this old devil was a little old, he was very skilled. In the blink of an eye, Luo Zhongyi killed two people. The Japanese soldier, the old Japanese, also killed two veterans of the Central Jiangsu Special Agent Regiment.
This old devil is none other than the captain of the Wakayama Alliance, Gan Zhonggu.
Almost at the same time that Luo Zhongyi locked on Qian Zhonggu, Qian Zhonggu also locked on Luo Zhongyi.
"Xinei!" Qian Zhonggu shouted, dragged his saber backwards, and pounced towards Luo Zhongyi.
Luo Zhongyi's pupils shrank slightly. Just by looking at Qian Zhonggu's dragging of the sword, he knew that he was a master of assassination, because unless he was a master who was very confident in his own skills and the speed of his sword, he would never dare to hide his sword behind his back. of! Otherwise, if you meet a master, you will be killed on the spot before you can use your sword.
Although he knew that the other party was a master, Luo Zhongyi never flinched.
"Go to hell!" Luo Zhongyi also roared, then raised his large knife high, and using the strong inertia formed after running and jumping up, he slashed down viciously at the Ganzhong Dog. Luo Zhongyi's knife was powerful and heavy, Moreover, it was a large knife, which clearly gave him a huge advantage. Gan Zhongquan did not dare to take it hard at the moment, and quickly dodged to avoid it.
When Luo Zhongyi saw this, he immediately sneered. Even if you avoid the vital points of your shoulder and neck, I still have to take off one of your arms.
However, Gan Zhongquan is indeed a master. While dodging, he did not forget to fight back. The saber hidden behind him suddenly came to him and raised it diagonally. The sharp blade went straight to Luo Zhongyi's lower abdomen, and Luo Zhongyi's pupils suddenly shuddered. He shrank, and if he continued to cut with this knife, he could certainly remove one of the old devil's arms, but he would inevitably be torn open by the old devil, and he would be the one who suffered in the end. He couldn't do this loss-making business!
At that moment, Luo Zhongyi shouted loudly, and the large blade he slashed down turned sharply and collided with the Japanese saber.
There was just a sound as Luo Zhongyi's large sword and Gan Zhonggu's saber collided hard.
A huge shock force was transmitted back from the large blade. Luo Zhongyi could no longer stand on his feet and took three steps back. He felt that his right arm was extremely sore and numb, and he could not even lift the large blade. Luo Zhongyi suddenly felt awe-inspiring in his heart, this old devil is so strong! Afraid of having a strength of 500 kilograms? !
Gan Zhongquan was not greatly affected. He gave a ferocious smile and raised his knife to stab Luo Zhongyi.
Luo Zhongyi knows that he must not retreat at this moment. Once he retreats, his courage will be exhausted, and once his courage is exhausted, the final result can only be death! At that moment, Luo Zhongyi shouted loudly, tried his best, and raised his sword to meet him again. Then, the large sword and the saber collided for the second time in the air, making an explosion.
This time, the large knife in Luo Zhongyi's hand flew away.
"Xinei, a Chinese!" Qian Zhongquan grinned ferociously and stabbed Luo Zhongyi straight in the chest.
At this time, Luo Zhongyi had just been knocked out of breath and could not speak, move, or even breathe! So he could only watch as Gan Zhonggu's saber stabbed straight into his chest.
Are you really going to die here today? Luo Zhongyi thought sadly.
Seeing that Gan Zhonggu's saber was about to pierce Luo Zhongyi's heart, at this moment, a hiss suddenly sounded in front of him. From the corner of Gan Zhonggu's eye, he saw a cold star flying toward his throat. Life and death At the critical moment, Qian Zhongguo turned sideways fiercely, and the cold star almost slid past his throat.
It turned out to be a feathered arrow, and the feathers on the tail of the arrow swept across the throat of the loyal dog, causing pain.
The saber in Qian Zhonggu's hand remained unchanged, and stabbed into Luo Zhongyi's chest with a clang, but the position was a little off, and it did not stab Luo Zhongyi's heart. When Qian Zhonggu retracted the saber and was about to make another stab, something happened in the air in front of him. There were two more screams, and then two more cold stars flew towards his face.
Gan Zhonggu quickly blocked with his knife, but he was still half a beat too late. One of the arrows was blocked, but the other arrow shot into his left cheek. After penetrating his mouth, it came out from his right cheek. , actually shot him through the face. In the end, the arrow still stayed on his cheek, and blood dripped down. The situation looked very terrifying.
Qian Zhongquan was so furious that he didn't care about giving Luo Zhongyi a last-ditch blow, and instead looked for the murderer who attacked him.
Soon, Gan Zhongguo saw a plump young woman in red standing on the ruins in front of her. The young woman in red once again drew her bow and nocked an arrow. With a whoosh of arrow, she easily killed a Japanese soldier.
"Baga Yalu!" Qian Zhongquan turned around, held up his saber, and strode towards the young woman in red.
A veteran of the secret service tried to stop him, but Gan Zhonggu stabbed him with a backhand knife and fell to the ground.
When the young woman in red heard the screams of the veteran of the secret service group, she turned slightly and aimed three arrows at Gan Zhongdog, but Gan Zhongdog easily deflected them. When the young woman in red tried to get the fourth arrow, Gan Zhongdog had already arrived. In front of her, he then raised a knife and pointed it at the slightly bulging belly of the young woman in red, then slashed at her. To be continued.
