The city gate opened, and the soldiers held their weapons and swarmed out. More soldiers directly jumped down from the gaps in the collapsed city wall and chased after them.
After eating their fill, the soldiers charged towards the 6th division.
The Japanese soldiers in the distance saw the gates of Guanghua Gate open and the Chinese people rush out, revealing cruel smiles.
"Major General, the Chinese are attacking our position.”Gu Shoufu, who was drawing a map in the command center, was shocked when he heard his subordinate's words.
"Say it again, what's wrong with being Chinese?”Gu Shoufu stepped forward and grabbed the combat staff officer's collar.
"Open the city gates and charge towards our position. They will break through our position soon.”the combat staff officer explained.
"Baka, stupid Chinese people, you actually dare to charge. Order the frontline troops to open fire immediately and destroy the Chinese people in front of the camp.”Gu Shoufu burst into laughter.
The Japanese soldiers on the battlefield were picking up their rifles and aiming at the charging soldiers, preparing to shoot.
"Boom!" A violent explosion blasted the Japanese soldiers into the sky.
The other Japanese were stunned by the explosion. Just as they came back to their senses, they saw five steel beasts appear in front of the camp.
The black muzzles roared and fired at their position.
Zhou Weiguo, who was leading the charge from behind, saw this scene and immediately shouted.
"Brothers, the tanks are here to support us.”As he spoke, he raised his hand and shot a Japanese soldier who was about to launch a sneak attack.
The soldiers at the front picked up their submachine guns and started firing. They used the Leopard tanks as cover and kept shooting at the Japanese soldiers.
The timing of the five Panther tanks joining the formation was very good. The Japanese were stunned. Many of them had never seen a Panther tank before. They had never thought that there was a tank bigger than the Empire's Type 96 tank in the world.
At the front were Zhou Weiguo's security company. They were all equipped with Thomas submachine guns. This kind of firepower was definitely second to none in this era.
Although Thompson's effective range was 100 meters, the powerful firepower caused heavy casualties to the Japanese.
Coupled with the heavy machine guns on the Panther tanks, the Japanese finally learned their lesson. At this moment, they knew what kind of troops they were facing. Such troops were incomparable in the field.
The Japanese soldiers on the first line of defense chose to retreat and began to escape.
However, the Panther Tank was moving at a speed of more than 40 kilometers per hour. They were chasing after them tightly. There was a limit to their manpower.
Seeing that the Panther tanks were like gods helping them, the charging soldiers were in high spirits and chased after the Japanese like wild horses.
Zhou Weiguo climbed onto the Leopard Tank in time and commanded it to fire at the places where there were more Japanese.
At this moment, the artillery battalion also started to fire. The artillery fire extended and bombarded the Japanese in the distance to slow down their escape speed.
The fierce artillery fire blocked the path of the Japanese.
The Japanese had no choice but to retreat to both sides. The tanks scattered and chased after the Japanese, followed by the soldiers of Regiment 522.
Each of them had a Garand semi-automatic rifle. There was no need to fire at all. They could shoot ten times in a row. Many of the Japanese were shot dead in the back.
When the fighting got to its climax, Zhou Weiguo directly picked up the heavy machine gun on the Leopard tank and launched a fierce attack on the Japanese. Those who could not escape in time were directly shot into a sieve.
Gu Shoufu, who was overseeing the command post in the distance, saw this scene and his mind went blank.
"How could this be? How could the Chinese have such a huge steel beast?”
"Baka, how can the firepower of the Chinese be so strong?”
Gu Shoufu wasn't the only one who couldn't believe it. The other staff officers in the command center were also filled with disbelief.
The offensive and defensive situation had undergone a huge change in the blink of an eye. Yesterday, they were still on the offensive side, but after a night, they had become the defensive side, and they were still in a state of being crushed.
"Protect the Regiment Commander and retreat." The combat staff officer was quick to react. Without giving Gu Shoufu time to think, he ordered the guards to carry Gu Shoufu away from the headquarters.
The Japanese were in complete despair. In this era where anti-tank missiles had yet to appear, the appearance of tanks was often the deciding factor.
Germany's blitzkrieg relied on the advantage of tanks to quickly tear through the enemy's defense line. After all, flesh and blood could not stop the flood of steel.
Although there were only five Panther tanks, it was enough to deal with this group of infantry.
The advantage of the positional warfare tank could be maximized, and this Leopard tank was the most mature one. It could easily pass through the temporary positions built by the Japanese.
Some of the Japanese squadron leaders still wanted to organize a counterattack, but the situation was too chaotic and they could not organize effectively. Once there were more than a few dozen people in the team, they would be hit by Leopard tank shells.
The occasional small-scale counterattack would be turned into a sieve by the soldiers of the guard company who swept across with submachine guns.
The 6th division was finished. Once they were defeated, even the War God wouldn't be able to turn the situation around. After the battle, the 6th division lost more than 5,000 men.
The only pity was that Major General Gu Shoufu was not captured.
The Earth would not explode.
