Chapter 67: The Final Moment (Seeking Follow-up Reads)
"Listen to my command."
"Japanese artillery position, charge number three!"
"Ready... fire..."
As Yu Dazhu's command fell.
The mortar crew immediately loaded the shells.
Yu Dazhu personally operated the Type 41 Mountain Gun.
"Boom... boom..."
"Baka!"
Upstairs, Yu Hua revealed a cold sneer.
The Japanese devils began to gradually occupy the high ground.
One company had already probed all of the Sichuan Army's firepower.
In this bombardment, the Japanese devils' artillery position was littered with corpses.
Yu Hua shouted loudly.
Yu Hua ordered everyone to cease fire and immediately shift their Firepower Points.
"Charge for me!"
They also began to launch an attack on the three-story building from the flank.
"Boom... boom..."
The Japanese devils' Mountain Guns and Anti-tank Guns all began to move.
Aiming at the United States Church in the Dunwusi City District to conduct a bombardment.
Even the doors and windows of the church had holes blown open that were getting larger and larger.
Now his battalion had no artillery support.
Because the Takahashi Battalion had arrived outside the church.
The Adjutant beside Takahashi Kawamoto hurriedly said: "Battalion Commander!"
This time... a company of Japanese soldiers moved forward, following closely behind the previous company!
"The Imperial Army now needs to seize the high ground!"
Some soil fell onto the Japanese artillerymen, burying them.
After the Adjutant's reminder, Takahashi Kawamoto regained his focus.
Seeing that the Sichuan Army's Firepower Points were gone, Takahashi Kawamoto ordered the troops to attack.
"Da-da-da!! —"
In an instant!
Three Firepower Points, Light and Heavy Machine Guns, rang out simultaneously.
Outside the church, there were two more three-story buildings.
The Czech Light Machine Guns and Type 11 Light Machine Guns continuously spat tongues of fire.
So many light machine guns!
"Immediately request artillery support from the Regiment Commander."
"Fire!!"
The other Sichuan Army soldiers were each holding a Submachine Gun!
With such massive firepower, Yu Hua was confident he could wipe out a company of Japanese devils.
Although there was no artillery support.
This time the area of the bombardment expanded, and at the same time, the remaining two companies of the Takahashi Battalion.
Although the Takahashi Battalion had no artillery left, the 35th Regiment outside the city still had Type 41 Mountain Guns and 37mm Anti-tank Guns.
There were already dozens that could still be used.
The Japanese devils' Mountain Guns and Anti-tank Guns began to bombard again.
The Japanese devils did not take the other two high-rise buildings to heart.
Damn it, the Sichuan Army, so poor they couldn't even afford cloth shoes, actually possessed 11 artillery pieces.
The sound of gunfire gradually died down.
The arms and legs of the Japanese artillerymen could be seen everywhere.
"Baka!"
Takahashi Kawamoto saw that the artillery position had been destroyed.
Takahashi Kawamoto was very happy.
After several rounds of Urban Warfare, the Japanese Light and Heavy Machine Guns captured by the Sichuan Army had been repaired and patched up.
They were the first to notice the Sichuan Army active in the church, so their focus fell entirely on the church.
The mortars had also become scrap metal.
Now these two high-rise buildings had been occupied by the Sichuan Army.
The two companies of Imperial Army soldiers on the street had no way to hide, with bullets flying in from all directions.
The two companies of Japanese devils moved forward hunched over, charging forward one by one.
The Sichuan Army was small in number, but their weapons were better than the Japanese devils'.
It was too late now; the 11 shells were like meteors of heavenly fire.
Were there enough shells?
The weak Republic of China Army usually lacked shells.
This left the Imperial Army soldiers with nowhere to hide.
However, as the battle progressed, Takahashi Kawamoto even lost his basic vigilance.
Two platoons fighting to the death against a battalion of devils—this trade is worth it.
Even though Hashimoto Ryuji had explained the method for breaking urban warfare.
The devils who could still breathe were shouting loudly.
The devils' artillery technique is very good!
After a round of shelling.
The situation on the battlefield changed very quickly, which caught Takahashi Kawamoto off guard.
Takahashi Kawamoto thought, so what if the Sichuan Army has artillery?
So many devil soldiers all walked onto the street.
This has now led to two companies falling into a desperate situation.
It was directly blown to pieces, and the remaining machine guns ceased fire immediately.
Thirty Sichuan Army soldiers in the church.
After receiving the order to open fire.
After a bloody battle, the Takahashi Battalion had two companies of strength remaining.
The shells landed, emitting a violent roar.
"Bombard the Sichuan Army's Firepower Point."
"Sichuan Army artillery attack..."
There is an open street in front of the church.
The bullets sprayed by the Light and Heavy Machine Guns and Submachine Guns constructed a Crossfire net.
The warriors of the Imperial Army were continuously shot and killed; his face changed drastically.
"Sichuan Army... how could he possibly possess artillery?"
There were ten Czech Light Machine Guns, and in addition, there were also ten of the devils' Type 11 Light Machine Guns.
It directly beat a company of devils until they lay flat on the ground.
Immediately order the artillery unit to support the Takahashi Battalion.
For a company of devils, it only required the Sichuan Army in the church to open fire.
"Yoshi!"
Completely wiped out the devils' artillery position.
"Ahhh..."
The devils' artillery commander shouted.
The Sichuan Army inside the church is really damn wealthy.
The two companies of devils on the street did not yet know that a crisis had descended.
The Type 92 Infantry Gun's barrel was blown into a twist, and the wheels were scattered.
Takahashi Kawamoto realized he had fallen into a trap.
But, Takahashi Kawamoto still had confidence that his battalion would definitely be able to take the Sichuan Army's position.
It smashed into the devils' artillery position.
"Baka!"
"Order the troops, charge!"
But!
The devils held Type 38 Rifles and crouched as they charged toward the church.
Now the church had been completely surrounded by a battalion of devils.
Yu Hua put down the Telescope.
Takahashi Kawamoto used the Telescope to observe the Sichuan Army's Firepower Point.
In this three-story building, the remaining Sichuan Army soldiers were all hiding here.
It completely enveloped the devils' two companies.
"Immediately request artillery support from the Regiment Commander."
After losing the high ground of the two tall buildings outside the church, the twenty-plus people in Yu Hua's hands continued to hold the church.
The Takahashi Battalion lost its artillery.
"Da-da-da!! —"
This infuriated Takahashi Kawamoto quite a bit.
The three Firepower Points happened to form a triangle.
He immediately had the Communications Soldier contact the regiment headquarters.
Due to the small number of Sichuan Army soldiers, coupled with the devils' artillery bombardment.
"These bastards are way too good at hiding!"
At this moment, at the devils' artillery position, they heard the whistling sound coming from the sky.
Takahashi Kawamoto saw the Sichuan Army's firepower increase greatly.
"Baka!"
Under the bombardment of the devils' artillery, the two tall buildings outside the church.
In just a few minutes, over a hundred devils from the two companies fell into a pool of blood.
Countless bullets began to pour onto the two companies of devil soldiers.
Everyone's eyes were wide open!
Yu Dazhu fired one round of artillery.
"Baka... save me..."
Countless dust and bricks splashed outward.
The devils sent up two companies, and he now wanted to swallow them in one bite.
"Quickly... get down!"
His entire eyeballs bulged, his gaze filled with an expression of disbelief.
The battle suddenly fell into a stalemate.
One company of devils began to assault the church.
Outside the city, after Fujii Sueyoshi received the request from Takahashi Kawamoto.
The Sichuan Army soldiers began to sweep across the charging little devils.
The Sichuan Army commander's attainments were far above those of Takahashi Kawamoto.
He discovered that the front of the Sichuan Army was the church, and the front of the two flanks were two tall buildings.
"Boom, boom, boom!! ——"
Two companies of devils surrounded the church!
Under such firepower, the two companies of little devils were all lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
The three Light Machine Guns inside the church could not be relocated in time.
11 artillery pieces landed toward the devils' artillery position.
By the time Takahashi Kawamoto reacted and wanted to seize the commanding heights, he would have to pay a price.
Inside the church!
Yu Hua looked at everyone.
Everyone also knew that this was the final moment now.
