Chapter 1581 Attacking Suihua City
Chapter 1581 Attacking Suihua City
Leng Feng ordered the special forces stationed in Xinjing to go to Xinjing Airport and await orders.
At the same time, the 1st Regiment of the 4th Brigade stationed at the north gate of Harbin was ordered to launch the battle to recapture Suihua City from the south gate of Suizhong City at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. The 2nd Regiment of the 4th Brigade was ordered to launch the battle to recapture Suihua City from the east gate of Suihua City and to be on guard against the Japanese troops in Yichun City rushing to support.
The Third Regiment moved forward to the north gate of Harbin, ready to provide support at any time.
Leng Feng also gave Wang Zhuangfei a task, sending elite soldiers to sneak into Suihua City to prepare to meet the special forces to rescue comrades from the Eighth Route Army's underground communication station.
Wang Zhuangfei selected fifty officers and soldiers from his direct battalion and sneaked into Suihua City in batches.
Soldiers from the First and Second Regiments of the Fourth Brigade quietly surrounded the South Gate and East Gate of Suihua City while it was dark.
At seven o'clock the next morning, the artillery fire from the Fourth Brigade tore apart the tranquility of Suihua City.
For a time, flames shot up into the sky and smoke filled the air at the south gate and east gate of Suizhou City.
When the Japanese troops in Suihua City heard the sound of artillery fire, they hastily sent reinforcements to reinforce the South Gate and East Gate.
As soon as the artillery fire of the Fourth Brigade stopped, the soldiers of the First and Second Regiments of the Fourth Brigade rushed into the city like tigers descending from the mountains under the cover of tanks.
The Japanese were caught off guard by the sudden attack, but quickly organized a defense.
Tanks continued to bombard the Japanese and puppet troops on the city walls.
The Japanese and puppet troops on the city wall braved the tank fire and fiercely fired at the soldiers of the Fourth Brigade.
The Japanese artillery hidden in the city bombarded the outside of the city fiercely.
The tanks of the First Army had to move in a zigzag pattern to avoid the Japanese artillery fire.
The Xinjing Air Force, receiving the reinforcement order, quickly arrived in Suihua City. However, the Japanese artillery positions were clearly deliberately camouflaged.
From the air, the air force could only see a group of civilian houses and could not see the Japanese artillery positions at all.
Moreover, the Japanese artillery stopped shelling when the air force pilots approached, and once the air force pilots were far away, they resumed shelling the soldiers of the Fourth Brigade who were attacking the city.
Two tanks of the First Army were destroyed in succession in the Japanese surprise bombardment.
The 4th Brigade's first attack was repelled by the Japanese, but the 4th Brigade's infantry did not launch a fierce attack afterwards, but seemed to stop at the right time.
The air force of Xinjing continued to bomb and strafe the Japanese and puppet troops on the city walls.
The artillery bombarded the Japanese and puppet troops in the city from time to time, but the infantry only launched symbolic attacks and quickly retreated when they encountered resistance from the Japanese.
Major Kojima was puzzled by this. He even thought for a moment that he had overestimated the Devil's combat effectiveness. However, Major Songjiang, who had retreated from Harbin, believed that the Devil's combat effectiveness was definitely not as weak as it appeared.
The fifty officers and soldiers who sneaked into the city were not idle either. After taking weapons from the golden eagle, they divided into several groups and hid outside the Japanese military police headquarters, ready to take action at any time.
Towards evening, the infantry of the 1st and 2nd Regiments of the 4th Brigade launched another fierce attack on the south gate and east gate of Suihua City at the same time.
Major Kojima, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, became nervous again. Could it be that the Devil Army really had some conspiracy?
He ordered Chief of Staff Tian Ye to personally supervise the battle at the South Gate, and his trusted lieutenant, the commander of the 101st Regiment, to command the battle at the East Gate.
At this time, the Xinjing Air Force flew to Suihua City again and fiercely bombed and strafed the Japanese and puppet troops in Suihua City.
At this time, a formation of bombers quietly deviated from its route and flew to the vicinity of the gendarmerie headquarters in the center of Suihua City.
The roar of other fighter planes drowned out the roar of this bomber.
