Predator Reborn

Chapter 482: Underestimating the Enemy and Frustrated

While nearly a thousand little Japs were setting up positions around the main street inside the city gate, the Eighth Route Army troops outside the city, who had already been prepared, had already begun their first attack on Beiping City under the orders of Commander Liu Hua.

A formal attack. Four main regiments, nearly 10,000 soldiers, under the cover of a large amount of light and heavy firepower, launched an attack on the city gate directly opposite them...

Similarly, on the position of the Fourth Regiment outside the east gate of Beiping City, more than 400 soldiers of the Second Battalion of the Fourth Regiment, holding the rifles in their hands tightly, were in company units, and under the cover of three tanks that were constantly spitting out tongues of flames, they slowly

He walked out of his position and walked towards the battered city wall a few hundred meters away...

"Da da da..." Just when the three tanks had just driven out of the position and revealed themselves, a burst of intensive gunfire came from the city wall a few hundred meters away. Although the Japanese troops arranged in the bunker on the city wall

Most of the machine gun firepower points were destroyed in the shelling just now. However, because most of the soldiers in the bunker were soldiers of the Imperial Army with little combat effectiveness. Therefore, the destruction of a large number of bunkers did not affect a single infantryman of the Japanese army defending the city.

Brigade, how much damage was caused.

Just when the three tanks had just exposed their long barrels, several heavy machine guns mounted on the city wall and controlled by little devils spit out dense rain of bullets at the slowly moving tanks... dense

The bullets completely covered the three tanks in just an instant, causing sparks to fly out. However, because there were tanks in front of them, the bullets fired by the Japanese army were very dense. However, for the entire two tanks hiding behind the tanks, the bullets were very dense.

There were more than 400 soldiers in the battalion, but there were no casualties...

Of course, the machine gunners who were responsible for suppressing the firepower of the Japanese troops on the city wall at the Fourth Regiment position five hundred meters away from the city wall would not tolerate the little Japanese machine gunners to continue to be so arrogant. Just as the Japanese machine guns opened fire,

When his shooting position was exposed, in the trench, a dozen light and heavy machine guns, which had been waiting impatiently for a long time, immediately fired a dense rain of bullets. Two machine guns suppressed a Japanese firepower point. In just a moment, it was still very fierce.

The arrogant Japanese heavy machine gun. At this time, it was as if it had suddenly become mute and could only fire sporadic shots.

Without the Japanese light and heavy machine gun fire, the pressure on the soldiers' shoulders was suddenly relieved a lot. The three infantry companies began to follow the usual coordinated training, closely following the tanks, and forming a standard infantry-tank coordinated attack.

way, advancing towards the city gate step by step...

"Da da da..." Finally, as the soldiers got closer and closer to the city wall, the remaining light and heavy machine gunners in the dozen or so bunkers that had not been exposed until now couldn't help but join in.

Arriving in the ranks of the battle...

"Stop advancing, all lie down, take cover on the spot, and prepare for counterattack..." After the lesson of the exploratory attack just now, more than a dozen firepower points hidden by the Japanese army on the city wall just spurted out tongues of fire, causing minor casualties to the soldiers.

At that time, the commander of the second battalion and the commander of the tank company who led the team immediately issued orders to their troops to stop the attack.

"Da da da... boom boom boom..." The three tanks immediately stopped in front of the soldiers, blocking the rain of flying bullets fired by the Japanese army. At the same time, six vehicle-mounted heavy machine guns and three tank cannons, at this moment, were like

Like a moving bunker, it began to launch a fierce counterattack against the city wall two hundred meters away.

"Captain Xu, you really guessed it right. The Japs still hide so many firepower points?" Looking at the uneven walls of the city wall, more than a dozen shooting holes appeared again. He was preparing for the people around him.

Commander Xu ordered all the anti-aircraft guns in his anti-aircraft gun battalion to be ready for battle, and Battalion Commander Wang, who was ready to fire and cover at any time, said with admiration.

"Captain Wang, unless the commander of the little devil is a fool, he will not expose all his family wealth to us at the first time. If my guess is correct, these dozen

The firepower point should be the last firepower point of the Japanese army. Therefore, please ask Battalion Commander Wang to knock out all the remaining firepower points in the shortest possible time. After all, hundreds of soldiers are still within the firepower range of the Japanese army.

Persistence..." Xu Ying said...

"Commander Xu, don't worry, the anti-aircraft artillery battalion is guaranteed to complete its mission..." After saying that, he began to give orders to fire on the nine anti-aircraft guns behind him...

Suddenly, the nine anti-aircraft guns arranged behind the two men began to shoot out shells one after another after a brief aiming. "Boom, boom, boom..." followed by the explosion of shells, began to reach the soldiers.

Their ears were opened. On the city wall, the light and dark firepower points of the Japanese army were also covered by artillery fire one after another...

"Send a signal to Battalion Commander Li, and the troops will continue to attack. Use explosive packs to blow open the city gate for me, rush into Beiping City, and open a breakthrough for the troops..." After seeing three rounds of artillery shells, the Japanese army's newly exposed firepower has already

Everything was completely destroyed. Xu Ying, the leader with an excited face, excitedly ordered to the correspondent beside him.

"Rumble..." The three tanks, puffing out billowing black smoke, took action again. With hundreds of soldiers behind them, they continued to attack until the troops rushed to a distance of 100 meters from the city wall and stood firm on the city wall.

The Japanese troops on board did not come up with a good response plan. They could only watch three tanks and hundreds of Eighth Route Army troops attacking them in a mighty manner...

"It seems that the little Japs are at their wits' end in front of our anti-aircraft artillery battalion. The Second Battalion was ordered to speed up the attack. The tank company stopped fifty meters away from the city wall and was responsible for providing fire cover. The Second Battalion sent out a demolition team to clear the city gate.

Blow it up and open the passage for the troops to enter the city." Looking at the Second Battalion, which was progressing very smoothly, the regiment leader Xu Ying seemed to have seen victory and was waving to himself. Without any hesitation, he immediately ordered.

In an instant, the three tanks stopped in place and began to use their movable turrets to continuously suppress the light and heavy firepower points of the Japanese army on the city wall. In the entire second battalion, except for the platoon that had just been sacrificed, there were more than 400 soldiers left.

, under the command of the battalion commander, they all lay down behind the tanks and built temporary single-man bunkers according to usual training...

"Machine gun cover, the first demolition team rush up and blow up the city gate for me. The second demolition team, be ready to charge..." Through the smoke, he looked at the city gate just around the corner. Second Battalion Commander Li Shaohua didn't have any doubts.

He hesitated and ordered with a serious face.

"First Explosives Team, follow me..." Immediately, a commander holding a shell gun appeared in front of everyone, holding a five kilogram explosive bag in his arms. And behind him,

Before and after, there were about a dozen soldiers, each holding a packet of explosives of the same size in their arms...

A group of eleven people, under the cover of a large number of light and heavy machine guns and tanks, quickly passed the three tanks in front of them. Then, under the cover of a large number of light and heavy machine guns, they ran an S-shaped attack route and quickly headed towards the city.

The doorway rushed through.

"Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters, twenty meters..." To everyone's surprise, the eleven blasters rushed in without suffering any losses during the attack.

Inside the dark city gate cave... Of course, it's not that the Japanese army doesn't want to or can't stop it, but that the Japanese army on the city wall wants to implement their battle plan of annihilating the leading troops of the Eighth Route Army. Otherwise, a dozen grenades can kill more than a dozen

A demolitionist was blown to pieces...

One minute passed, and with everyone's expectations, a huge fireball suddenly rose into the sky in the dark city gate. Immediately afterwards, a loud explosion reached everyone's ears.

"Boom..." Two huge noises sounded, and two doors that were completely blown open by explosives fell to the ground...

"Comrades, charge with me, rush into Beiping City, capture Tada Shun alive, kill..." As the two city gates fell to the ground, the soldiers' passage to Beiping City was immediately opened. The Second Battalion was lying on the ground.

Commander Li Shaohua, without any hesitation, immediately jumped up from the ground, brandished the rifle in his hand, and was the first to rush out of the position...

"Come on... kill..." More than 400 soldiers simultaneously let out a thundering roar. Following closely behind the battalion commander Li Shaohua, they rushed towards the opened city gate... More than 400 soldiers, in

The Japanese troops on the city wall deliberately did this and successfully approached the city gate without encountering any resistance.

Of course, this trivial detail did not arouse the idea of ​​Battalion Commander Li Shaohua. After all, in the face of this fleeting opportunity, every commander had only one idea in his mind, and that was to lead his troops to quickly rush into Peiping City and give them to the enemy.

The main force behind them opened a breakthrough into the city.

More than four hundred soldiers, following Li Shaohua, were as fierce as tigers descending from the mountain. One after another, they rushed into Beiping City. They had no idea that just at the gate of the city, nearly a thousand Japanese troops were preparing for them.

A huge pocket array was formed, waiting for their arrival...

"Kill... rush into Beiping City and capture Tada Shun alive..." In this inspiring slogan, more than 400 soldiers rushed into Beiping City with high morale and excitement. Then, in the vanguard,

, rushed into the county seat 100 meters away. Just as they were preparing to follow their usual training, carry forward the spirit of rushing and fighting, and expand the breakthrough point, a street fighting fortification suddenly stood in front of everyone. And just behind the pile of sandbags

On top of the fortifications, two heavy machine guns, under the control of the little devil, were swinging their black muzzles, pointing at their bodies...

"No, there is an ambush. Hurry and hide..." Seeing the scene in front of him, he suddenly thought that he had just entered the city. It went smoothly beyond his imagination. Li Shaohua, the second battalion commander who was charging at the front of the team, immediately

Reacting from the shock, he realized that he had been ambushed by the Japs because he had underestimated the enemy. Suddenly, he realized that he had led the troops into the fire pit. Big beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he hurriedly faced

The soldiers around him shouted loudly...

However, just as he finished speaking, a burst of gunfire like exploding beans immediately covered up the shouts of more than 400 soldiers behind him, reaching his ears. The two heavy machine guns blocking his face

, facing the troops behind him, two hot tongues of fire protruded... Under the continuous fire of these two tongues of fire, the soldiers with high morale on the street were beaten to death before they had time to make any reaction.

He fell into a hornet's nest and fell into a pool of blood with an expression of incredible shock.

At this moment, something even more desperate happened to his second battalion. As the two heavy machine guns in front of him spit out dense rain of bullets, the reapers lost their lives one after another. Just now, there was still no one.

At the gate of the city, I don’t know when, a small group of Japanese soldiers suddenly rushed out. Dozens of Japanese soldiers quickly set up light and heavy machine guns behind them, and at the same time, they aimed at

The soldiers' backs spit out dense bullets.

"Get down quickly, take cover...get down quickly..." Amidst the intensive gunfire, commanders shouted loudly at the panicked soldiers around them, hoping to allow more soldiers to escape the flying incoming and outgoing soldiers.

Bullets rained. However, just when there was not a single standing soldier on the entire street. More than 400 soldiers, after suffering a sudden blow from the fierce firepower just now, nearly a hundred soldiers fell into a pool of blood and became

Became corpses.

However, the blows suffered by the Second Battalion were just the beginning. The remaining three hundred soldiers were lying on the street, under the command of commanders at all levels, preparing to launch attacks on everyone standing in front and behind them.

During the counterattack, the overwhelming grenades had already crossed the adjacent courtyard wall and appeared above their heads.

Nearly a thousand grenades landed on this street that was less than a hundred meters long and five meters wide. Intense explosions began to ring in the street, around the soldiers, and above their heads... As for the grenade explosion,

The shrapnel was like rain, killing and injuring all the Eighth Route Army soldiers standing in front of him on this narrow street...

Finally, the incessant sound of explosions slowly stopped amid everyone's expectations. The smoke caused by the simultaneous explosion of nearly a thousand grenades also slowly dissipated. At the same moment, a pungent burst of

The smell of blood quickly spread to everyone's noses on the battlefield. The streets after intensive grenade explosions slowly appeared in everyone's eyes...

On both sides of this street, which is less than a hundred meters long, the walls were still white before the war. At this moment, they have been blackened by the smoke generated by the explosion of artillery shells... And on the streets made of cement boards, from the bodies of the soldiers,

The blood flowing out almost dyed the concrete floor of this street red. In this section of the street less than 100 meters away, you can see the broken limbs, broken arms, internal organs... Every one of them was seriously injured.

The dead warriors, among the piles of corpses, kept squirming with their injured bodies, making bursts of miserable screams...

"Kill..." At this moment, the gates of the yards on both sides of the street were suddenly opened. Immediately afterwards, there were groups of Japanese soldiers, holding up rifles with bayonets in their hands, revealing their ferocious faces, and shouted

With slogans, he rushed out of the yard... Facing the corpses and wounded of the soldiers on the street, these Japanese soldiers who were worse than beasts acted like devils, stabbing the soldiers with the bayonets in their hands mercilessly.

their chests…

From the sound of the first gunshot to the last soldier on the street falling under the bayonet of the little Japanese, less than ten minutes passed. In the entire second battalion, the commander of the battalion, Li Shaohua, had 428 commanders and combatants.

One person survived, but all died...

"Yo Xi, yours, take the first squadron and clean up the battlefield immediately. Throw all the bodies of the Eighth Route Army from the city wall out of Beiping City to give a good shock to the Eighth Route Army troops outside the city. Your second squadron, immediately

Use the sandbags we prepared in advance to block the city gate and resolutely block the Eighth Route Army's attack. Start taking action immediately..." Looking at the bloody battlefield in front of him, the Japanese captain who directed the entire battle did not show any pity on his face.

Instead, he gave an almost inhuman order to the two squadron leaders in front of him.

"Hi, Captain..." The two squadron leaders, without any hesitation, immediately led their troops and began to perform the mission. More than two hundred Japanese soldiers, carrying bags of sandbags, quickly piled up

In the city gate cave, the remaining two hundred or so soldiers carried the corpses of the soldiers lying in a pool of blood onto the city wall one by one. Then, in the shocked eyes of the soldiers outside the city, they

These corpses were thrown out of the city one after another...

Just when the Second Battalion successfully rushed into Peiping City, Xu Ying, the commander of the Fourth Regiment who was in a very happy mood and was about to order the follow-up troops to follow up, suddenly heard the sound of gunfire like exploding beans in the city.

Consciousness suddenly appeared in his mind. Then, he thought about the scene where the second battalion unexpectedly rushed into Peking City. Xu Ying, the leader of the fourth regiment, immediately broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and realized that he seemed to have been fooled.

After recovering from the initial shock, the regiment leader Xu Ying immediately ordered the third battalion, which had never participated in the battle, to launch an attack at the empty city gate at this moment, in an attempt to assist the second battalion in the city to retreat.

However, just when more than 400 soldiers of the third battalion rushed to a distance of more than 100 meters from the city wall. The city wall, which had been silent just now, suddenly rang out like exploding beans.

Although Xu Ying, as the leader of the regiment, almost assembled all the light and heavy firepower on the position to suppress it. However, under the desperate resistance of the Japanese army, more than 400 soldiers, after paying nearly 100 casualties, did not have any

The progress was suppressed at a position of 100 meters by the intensive firepower of the Japanese army...
