"Flamethrower?" Xu Wen thought to himself that this thing is very useful in mountainous battles, but now that he is fighting a running battle, he basically doesn't need it.

So he didn't take it too seriously, but ordered his subordinates: "Continue the attack! Defeat the Japanese army!"

"Yes!" All the tanks, armored vehicles, and armed military vehicles started up again and rushed forward as fast as possible.

Zhou Weiguo and others led a large number of infantry and followed up.

At this time, the scout had just run back to the 38th Regiment Headquarters. Because he ran too fast, when he saw Colonel Sekikawa Shizuji, the guy was so tired that he was out of breath. It took him a while to complete.

speak.

"Captain, no, it's not good, the Chinese Army, a large number of Chinese Army are coming to kill us!"

"Nani?" Although Colonel Seiji Sukegawa was mentally prepared, he was still surprised and asked: "What about the 1st Battalion? Why didn't they withdraw?"

The Japanese scout swallowed and continued: "The entire army should have been wiped out. The incoming China Army had many tanks and armored fighting vehicles!"

"Nani?" Seiji Sukegawa was even more shocked, and immediately said in horror: "According to this, the 33rd Regiment must have encountered something unexpected?"

The major staff officer next to him said: "Sir, without further ado, let's order the troops to retreat as soon as possible."

Baga! Sukegawa Shizuji turned around and slapped him in the face, and shouted: "Idiot! The Chinese Army has tanks and armored units. If we retreat now, we are playing into their hands. Do you think two legs can outrun their tanks and armored vehicles?

?”

The major staff officer covered the left side of his face that had been beaten, and quickly lowered his head and said: "Sir, what you are trying to teach me is that you have neglected your humble duty."

Sukegawa Shizuji snorted coldly and said thoughtfully: "Give me the order, the 2nd and 3rd Battalions will immediately prepare to meet the enemy, rely on the existing positions to stand firm and wait for reinforcements, and quickly request support from the Shanghai Dispatch Army Headquarters!"

"Hai!" The Japanese Major and several other adjutants bowed their heads in response, and immediately took their orders and left.

However, before the Japs were ready, Xu Wen had already led the tanks and armored troops of the Independent Battalion to rush over in a mighty manner.

As per the old rules, first there was a heavy bombardment by artillery shells, which caused the Japanese soldiers on the battlefield to cry for their fathers and mothers, creating chaos.

Immediately afterwards, ten Humvee military vehicles, as well as the vehicle-mounted anti-aircraft machine guns and general-purpose machine guns on the armored vehicle, opened fire one after another, suppressing the Japanese with intensive firepower.

Countless bullets poured towards the Japanese like raindrops.

The Japanese in the chaos were struck one after another and fell down screaming.

It didn't take long before the Japanese soldiers' corpses lay strewn all over the Japanese position.

Especially the five No. 4 tanks commanded by Xu Wen, with their five 75mm tank guns, kept pouring shells on the heads of the Japanese, causing their flesh and blood to fly everywhere, causing heavy casualties.

The regiment headquarters of Shizuji Sukegawa, an old Japanese soldier, was also hit by a shell in the chaos, causing the entire headquarters tent to collapse on the spot. Shizuji Sukegawa and several staff adjutants inside were also killed on the spot.

At this time, Zhou Weiguo, Fang Shengli and others led the eight thousand Wuxi garrison with the infantry of the independent battalion and all came to kill them.

Seeing that Xu Wen and his assault troops had torn through the enemy's defense line and were brutally torturing the little Japanese.

These officers and soldiers, who had suffered heavy losses from the Japanese in the previous series of battles, roared loudly and swarmed forward with loud killing sounds.

Soon they broke into the 38th Regiment's position and launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against the remaining Japs.

Without the unified command of the wing headquarters, there was also a lack of anti-tank weapons to deal with Xu Wen's tanks and armored vehicles.

The Japs, who were at a disadvantage in terms of firepower and numbers, could not hold out for even half an hour before they were completely wiped out by Xu Wen and Zhou Weiguo's troops.

At this point, the two main Japanese field regiments stranded in the south of Wuxi were completely annihilated by Xu Wen and others.

After killing these two regiments, the Wuxi defenders planned to withdraw their troops and withdraw to their defense lines.

He was stopped by Xu Wen: "Brothers, we finally won two big victories tonight. Now our morale is strong. We should continue to attack with all our strength.

As far as I know, reinforcements from the 19th Brigade of the Japanese 16th Division are on their way. If we can defeat them in one go, it will be an unprecedented victory.

Seriously damaging the 16th Division will be of great benefit to our army!

If we withdraw our troops now, it will only be a small victory at best! And when the Japanese reinforcements gather, we will be at an absolute disadvantage. No matter whether Wuxi cannot be defended, Changzhou will also be difficult to defend!

Therefore, I, Zhu Ziming, am here to implore everyone to believe me again and continue to attack! Our independent battalion takes the lead. If we fight well, you can follow. If we fight poorly, you can withdraw on your own. How about it? "

Seeing that Xu Wen was so sincere, a commander of the Sichuan Army Corps immediately expressed his stance: "Greg, your independent battalion is not afraid of death, and neither are we Sichuan guys! Our Sichuan Army Corps will fight with you to the end!"

"Yes, our Hunan Army is not afraid of death! Let's do it with you!" Another leader of the Hunan Army echoed.

"None of us Guangxi guys are afraid of death! Commander Zhu can kill so many Japanese generals, and he will definitely be able to lead us guys to kill this bastard 16th Division!

No matter where the commander goes tonight, our 67th regiment will definitely accompany him to the end! Fight with that bitch Xiao Dongyang to the end!" A lieutenant colonel officer from the Guangxi family responded excitedly!

"Very good! If the country has soldiers like you, why worry about the Japanese invaders not being wiped out! Brothers, follow me!" Xu Wen glanced at these iron-clad men with admiration, turned around and jumped on his own car

tank.

All the officers and soldiers took out their weapons in unison, and their eyes also focused on Xu Wen.

I saw Xu Wen shouting in a deep voice: "Brothers from the Hunan Army, Sichuan Army, Guangxi Army and Yunnan Army! Although you lost in Shanghai, you are honored to be defeated because you have shown the backbone and dignity of Chinese soldiers!

Tonight, I, Zhu Ziming, will live and die with you, advance and retreat together! Let’s avenge our brothers Paoze who died in Shanghai and Peking together!

Now, I order all the troops to follow our independent battalion and attack the enemy! Press the little devils to the end and kill them all!"

"Kill them all!"

"Kill them all!"

"Kill them all!" Including Zhou Weiguo, the eight thousand defenders raised their arms and shouted, roaring in unison!

The momentum was overwhelming and the blood was boiling. The fighting spirit was soaring to the sky. Seeing that the heat was almost over, Xu Wen waved his big hand and sternly ordered: "Kill me!"

The eight thousand Wuxi defenders with high morale rushed over their tanks and armored vehicles like a flood that burst a dam, and rushed toward the southeast in a mighty manner.
Chapter completed!
