Momo Sanjuro and his men looked at each other affectionately, and then with a bang, the entire tank exploded again, sending away a truckload of Japanese soldiers.
The other Japanese chariots retreated one after another at this moment, and especially the captain of the squadron of Japanese chariots who sent Momo Sanjuro to the guillotine. His whole brain was buzzing with the explosion. Because if he hadn't been there to support him, the squadron leader would have died.
If you can withdraw, you won't have to be burned alive.
Thinking of this, he was at a loss.
But at this moment, the gunner behind him said: "Sir, the squadron leader is dead, now it is your turn to take command."
"Huh?"
The Jaap squad leader's eyebrows suddenly arched, and the corners of his mouth turned up. Because the squadron leader died, he could take over the squadron leader's position.
He was afraid that the squadron leader would not die, so he ordered: "Let's all fire and blow up the tanks in front of us. Then we will enter the city to avenge the squadron leader."
The Japanese gunner gave a thumbs up, secretly praising the squad leader for being so ruthless that he wouldn't even let go of the squadron leader's body.
So the little Japanese tanks were divided into three directions and fired non-stop bombardments at the exploding command vehicle.
Boom! Boom!
The Japanese chariots that had been blown to pieces were completely disintegrated in a series of shellings, but the chariots outside the city still couldn't get in.
The city gate is very narrow and can only accommodate one chariot. The gate is also not high, only about two and a half meters. This eliminates the possibility of the Japanese chariots passing over the chariots in front.
Therefore, the Japanese must blow up all the chariots blocking the city gate.
So the little Japanese could only bombard their own tanks indiscriminately, and they didn't even want the corpse of the squadron leader.
But taking advantage of this time, Duanwu had ordered all the garrison on the city wall to quietly withdraw, and then all gathered in private houses in the west of the city.
At the same time, the defenders of Beicheng were also retreating in batches. They got some corpses of Japanese soldiers and propped them up at the crenellations with wooden poles, so that the Japanese soldiers would not know that the defenders had left when they saw that there were still people standing guard.
What's more, Hemo Japs are still waiting for news from Nancheng, because he already knows that reinforcements have arrived and are attacking the city.
Originally, he was supposed to cooperate with Xiongcun's operation, but obviously, even if he cooperated again, his military achievements would not matter to him. But the most important thing is that his brigade suffered heavy losses. He led two squadrons, and now only two squadrons are left.
About a hundred people.
And if the losses continue, his brigade will most likely be downsized into a squadron.
This is not impossible. Replenishing troops has become a luxury when all units have suffered losses. Even if he applies to the commander of the regiment for supplementary troops now, it will probably take one to two months before new troops are sent.
Come to him.
Therefore, the Hemo Japanese army kept an eye on it. Since the reinforcements had arrived and the battle achievements had nothing to do with them, why should they risk being downsized to fight this battle?
So the Hemo Japanese soldiers waited quietly to see what would happen, which gave Beicheng's defenders plenty of time to retreat.
When they arrived at the gathering place, Duanwu saw Shark Tongtian and asked, "Have all the people in Beicheng evacuated?"
"Withdrawing, I left all the corpses of the Japanese on the city wall, so the little Japanese won't be able to find them for a while, hehe!"
Shark Tongtian was a little proud, after all, he came up with this idea himself.
Duanwu nodded approvingly and ordered: "Go down to the tunnel immediately and join the large army."
"yes!"
Shark Tongtian accepted the order and took the people away.
At this time, the people in Nancheng had almost evacuated.
Duanwu found a broom and swept away all the footprints on the ground so that the Japanese could not figure out how they got out of the city. Then he, the last two special forces members, and Hu Niu also went down into the tunnel and removed the lid of the box.
It was closed again, and more than 500 people, soldiers, civilians and bandits in the entire Shama store disappeared from the world.
When Xiongcun entered Chengnei angrily, he was confused. The defenders on the city wall disappeared.
He thought that these people knew that his Xiongcun Brigade was retreating into the enemy's territory, but after a search, not even a single human hair was found.
At the same time, the Hemo Brigade, which received the order, also entered the city.
The attacking team was terrified because they were afraid that the people on the city would throw grenades down.
But when they crawled and rolled to the bottom of the city, they discovered that the people on the wall were not moving.
The two Japs worked together to push open the city gate, but after a loud bang, both Japs were blown away.
They were hit by a booby trap, which was left behind by the special operations team before they left. Otherwise, the enemy would not have been able to push the door open so easily.
The other Japanese were so frightened that they lay on the ground. After waiting for a long time and finding that there was no sound in the city, they boldly entered the city.
After entering the city, the Japanese soldiers divided into two groups, one group occupied the nearby houses, while the other group attacked the city wall.
There were figures on the city wall. The Japanese thought they were Chinese defenders, so they opened fire randomly, even using machine guns.
But after fighting for a long time, the opponent remained motionless.
The Japs thought they had seen a ghost, and were so frightened that the hairs on their hair almost stood up. Finally, a more courageous Japs crawled over to check, and then they saw clearly that those figures were the corpses of the Imperial Army supported by wooden poles.
The Japanese were very angry, and after laying down the corpses of their own people, they wanted to fight the Chinese, but when they met Xiongcun's men, they didn't see a single figure.
Xiongcun was surprised because Kira told him that there were four to five hundred people in the city, but now there was no one.
He felt that he had been deceived by Kira, so he turned around and roared like a wild dog: "Kiliang, you actually lied to me. You told me that there are four to five hundred people in this city. Where are the people now? Where are the people?"
And Kira is also wronged, because everything he said is true.
Kira quickly explained: "Kazuma-kun also knows about this matter. There are really four to five hundred people in this city."
Kira pointed at Wuma, who had to say a few words at this time. He nodded and said: "Kira-kun is right. According to the deceased Fujiyama-kun, there were two hundred to three hundred bandits in the city, and four or five more."
Ten common people, and the Chinese special forces under the Dragon Boat Festival.
After that, about a hundred people entered the city, as well as more than a hundred bandits.
There are a total of five hundred of them, so Kira-kun did not lie. They used some method unknown to us to leave before the city was breached."
Xiongcun frowned and looked around, because he didn't believe that his enemy had just disappeared from the world.
He thought for a while and asked again: "You are all setting up defenses in the south and north of the city, but what about the east and west of the city?"
Kira said: "Oumura-kun, please rest assured, we have deployed both open and hidden sentries. If the enemy really leaves the city from these two locations, they will definitely find it."
