With the help of radio contact, Hu Biao, who was still stuck in the Presidential Palace, established contact with Liu Guotong's headquarters, who had successfully broken through to the foot of Zijin Mountain. With the help of special bombs, the three combat battalions finally broke through successfully and arrived safely at the foot of Zijin Mountain.

As Hu Biao analyzed earlier, as the defending troops broke through the entire encirclement, the position of Zijin Mountain that the Japanese army attacked strongly once again became a ruin on the battlefield. After the evacuation of Liu Guotong's headquarters, the Japanese army did not station troops again.

The only thing that worried Hu Biao was that Liu Guozheng's headquarters did not meet with the commando team led by Xu Sandao for the time being. Fortunately, there was still time before dawn, and Hu Biao believed that with the strength of Xu Sandao and the commando team, he should not be surrounded by the Japanese army.

When Hu Biao and Liu Guotong Department sent telegrams back and forth, the 18th Japanese Division, which was responsible for attacking the Presidential Office, had already moved its command center into the city. The attacked heavy artillery brigade also moved its position like the division command center.

The heavy artillery position constructed earlier is no longer suitable for continued use due to special bombs. Only after the yellow smoke has dissipated and the surviving artillery forces take protective measures will the intact heavy artillery be transferred out of the position.

In the reorganized temporary command center, the major general brigade commander of the heavy artillery brigade also said angrily: "Secretary Commander, since these damn Chinese troops used special bombs to attack, let's change to special bombs for the artillery attack after dawn!"

"Miyamoto, don't be overwhelmed by anger. We need to conquer the places we need to conquer later, and we also need office and station in the future. Using special bullets can certainly damage the defenders, but those places can only be given up in the future!"

As Hu Biao guessed, in the eyes of the Japanese army entering the city at this moment, Jinling already belonged to them rather than the National Government. Even if the heavy artillery brigade was in power, Sadao Niujima did not intend to use it, but was waiting for support from the air force.

With the air force providing fire cover, Sadao Niujima believes that the defenders will find it difficult to withstand their attack. Moreover, although the other troops entering the city were raided last night, they have now detoured to the corresponding combat location.

Just wait for the 18th Division to launch an attack and cooperate with the troops will launch an attack from the flanks and behind the enemy. This also means that the Dead Soldiers' camp, which is still stuck in the Presidential Palace area, will truly face the desperate situation of encirclement on all sides.

After hearing Sadao Niujima's words, the commander of the heavy artillery brigade finally said nothing. As the gunfire in the city gradually subsided, the darkest moment before dawn had arrived. When the morning light broke, the Japanese army finally took action.

The sentry responsible for staying in the military camp looked at the large number of Japanese troops searching from afar and finally took action: "Hurry up, tell the platoon leader immediately, the Japanese are here! It seems that they should be coming to where we are."

As someone among the sentry turned around and left, all the combat platoons that were resting immediately entered the defensive position. At the same time, with the help of the phone set up earlier, the left-behind combat platoon leader immediately gave Hu Biao a warning letter.

Upon hearing the news, Hu Biao quickly said: "Lieutenant Lie, your headquarters will be responsible for the blocking battle later. I will lead a combat company to support the outside world. When the Japanese enter the barracks, you will find the right opportunity to completely blow up the barracks.

At that time, I will launch a raid on the Japanese army on the periphery, and you can take this opportunity to break through and meet with us. Remember the retreat route I told you, don’t go wrong. There are explosion traps I set up in advance on other streets. Do you understand?"

"I understand! Sir, you don't need to help us. We have decided to live and die with the military camp!"

"Barring! If you still recognize me as your commander, then obey my orders. The explosion sounded and broke through when the gunshots were heard. Even if we were to live and die with the position in the end, then our position was still in the Presidential Palace. Do you remember?"

"Remember!"

After hanging up the phone, Hu Biao immediately said, "Second Shuan, notify the guards' first company, gather immediately and follow me to the rear military camp!"

"Yes, captain!"

"Old Chen, draw a company and send it to the second-line position to accept Qin Tianyou's command. Before I return, I must hold on to the second-line position. If the Japanese use heavy artillery, let them withdraw to the Presidential Palace."

"Okay, I remember! Be careful yourself!"

"Don't worry! Also notify the air defense company to prepare for air defense. All officers and soldiers staying in the Presidential Palace will enter the blocking position to prepare for combat. As for those wounded people, all weapons will be distributed as reserves and waiting for orders at any time!"

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away!"

After continuously issuing combat instructions, the guards who were resting in the middle of the night quickly gathered together. After replenishing ammunition, Hu Biao led the guards to the area where the barracks were located and entered the defensive fortifications built earlier.

When they arrived, they could already hear the combat platoon and the Japanese search troops had already exchanged fire. Looking at the Japanese army attacking, Liu Quan said anxiously: "Sir, do we take the opportunity to do a vote and fight the Japanese from behind!"

"Don't worry! Before we get on board, order the troops to enter the position and follow my orders at any time. As long as the Japanese don't come, we won't take action. Let the combat platoon attract Japanese to the military camp."

"They only have one rank, I'm afraid they won't last long, right?"

"It's okay! What they have to do is not block, but attract the attention of the Japanese. The more Japanese people attract the military camp, the more Japanese people will be killed by us later, and the less pressure we will bear later. Do you understand?"

There were only six or seven hundred troops on hand, and Hu Biao could not take care of the enemies in both directions. All he could do was to eliminate as many Japanese soldiers responsible for detours and assists as possible before the Japanese had completed the siege.

The real main battlefield is still the Presidential Palace. Only by concentrating all forces to stick to the Presidential Palace can Hu Biao delay time as much as possible. But judging from the Japanese's fierce fighting style, this battle is probably difficult to fight today!

Realizing this, Hu Biao still seemed very calm. From the moment he decided to stay, Hu Biao was already mentally prepared for this ending. As a commander, he must maintain a calm mind so that his subordinates can feel at ease.

He called Huang Ershuan to his side and sent out the guard platoon who had been following him. Hu Biao, who was staying in the blocking position, quietly paid attention to the battle ahead. As long as the Japanese did not come, Hu Biao would not take the initiative.

Judging from the current situation, there seem to be a large number of Japanese soldiers responsible for detours. Seeing that there were defenders in the military camp, Japanese soldiers responsible for assisting immediately launched an encirclement and began to fight fiercely with left-behind combat platoons.

Only a small number of Japanese devils began to set up blocking positions in front of Hu Biao and others. Seeing this establishment, Japanese devils were also worried that the Presidential Palace would send reinforcements to rescue the defenders who blocked them in the military camp.

But Hu Biao had already led the guard company to arrive, but he never launched an attack. Until the Japanese sent a search team to continue searching at the location of the Presidential Palace, the sniper team that Hu Biao scattered finally took action.

Taking over the commanding heights and favorable terrain, the sniper who has been fully trained during this period has more accurate marks than before. With Hu Biao's sniper experience, the lethality of the sniper team has been improved linearly.

"There are enemies! Counterattack! Counterattack on the spot!"

Compared to the dense gunshots in the military camp, the gunshots on the streets cut off by the Japanese army at this moment seemed messy. However, for the Japanese army responsible for the search, they felt extremely panicked. The reason was that the seemingly incontinuous gunshots were fatal.

The Japanese search team, suppressed on the street, looked at the soldiers who were shot at a distance, and the team leader also said depressedly: "It's the Chinese Army's sharpshooter! Damn, we need support!"

"The captain, the main force is attacking the Chinese army's barracks, and I'm afraid I can't send people to support me!"

"Retreat to the blocking position! I don't believe that these Chinese troops can be saved by death! Next, we wait for them to attack. If we can restrain the main force of the Chinese defenders and the troops responsible for the frontal attack, we can easily capture the defenders' positions."

After realizing that this time they were assisting rather than main attack, the team leader and the sergeant immediately led the search team to withdraw the blocking position that was being built before the barracks. Anyway, it was still early, so they felt that they should not be the ones who were anxious.

Seeing the Japanese retreating again, Liu Quan could not hide his curiosity and said, "Sir, are you just watching them build a blocking position like this?"

"Don't worry! As long as they don't come, we won't launch an attack. When news from the military camp comes, we will respond as soon as the military camp is explosive. The positions they are building now are a waste of time, and we will wait and see!"

Earlier, in order to prevent the Japanese army from cutting off the contact channels between the Presidential Palace and the military camp, Hu Biao made some arrangements in advance in the nearby street and arranged warning sentries. These arrangements were enough to make the Japanese army suffer a loss.

At this moment, the combat platoon in front of the military camp was standing in front of the military camp. Seeing the Japanese gathering more and more in front of the military camp, the lieutenant platoon leader who led the team immediately said: "Retreat into the second-line position and put these Japanese in to fight!"

"Yes, sir!"

With the order of the combat lieutenant, the soldiers responsible for blocking the barracks at the gates quickly gave up the blocking position in front of the barracks and quickly ran back to the barracks from both sides. The Japanese commander who organized the attack immediately said happily: "Kill some!"

The Japanese in charge of the attack heard the commander's order and rushed into the military camp. Just as these Japanese invaders felt that the remaining battle was to capture prisoners, sharp gunshots came again from the roofs of the two barracks opposite the gate of the military camp.

The four Maxim heavy machine guns placed on the roof of the barracks were like four life-seeking fire chains, blocking the entire barracks' gates. Faced with the bullets shot by the heavy machine guns, the Japanese who entered the barracks were immediately severely injured.

Looking at the Japanese commander lying in a group of soldiers lying in the machine gun position in front of the military camp, he also said angrily: "Baga! Hurry up, order the artillery squad to come and reinforce quickly! Damn, why are there so many heavy machine guns here!"

The military camp gate area is so large, and the crossfire formed by four heavy machine guns almost blocked the entire military camp gate. Even though many Japanese devils fell down quickly, they still could not avoid being hit by heavy machine gun bullets hit to the ground.

Without artillery support, it is simply a delusion to break through the blockade of four heavy machine guns by the infantry alone!
