When Zhou Weiguo and the others rushed up, they realized that the Japanese had nearly half a brigade of soldiers. Fortunately, the assault team members were armed with submachine guns, and the troops behind them caught up in time.
However, even so, it was still difficult to take down more than 500 Japanese in the early stages of the war in a very short period of time.
After the Japanese were forced back into the building, Zhou Weiguo quickly led his men to retreat as they fought. To avoid being surrounded by the Japanese outside.
"Guild Leader! This couldn't go on. The remaining 300 Japanese were still following them!”
Chang Debiao, who had brought up the rear, ran up and said in a loud voice.
"Get the mortars to create an interception net and throw the smoke grenades over. We'll retreat quickly! We've already been here for more than ten minutes. If we delay any longer, we'll be surrounded!”
Zhou Weiguo quickly reloaded the submachine gun in his hand and said.
"Good!"
Now, Chang Debiao knew that he could only listen to Zhou Weiguo here. Firstly, Zhou Weiguo was the superior in terms of military rank and position.
Secondly, a snake could not be without a head. Based on Zhou Weiguo's retreat, their losses along the way were the smallest. Right now, he could only leave with Zhou Weiguo. If they thought about other things at this time, none of them would be able to escape.
Moreover, Chang Debiao believed that Zhou Weiguo would not abandon them. Otherwise, the morale that they had just gathered would be scattered.
Therefore, Chang Debiao immediately turned around to carry out Zhou Weiguo's orders.
Soon, amidst the sounds of gunfire, an interception net was shot out in front of the Japanese. Then, smoke bombs were thrown out.
Amidst the smoke, Zhou Weiguo and the others quickly broke out of the encirclement.
Zhou Weiguo and the rest quickly moved towards the east cannon. Everyone knew that they could not be bitten to death by the Japanese. If they were bitten to death by the Japanese, they would not be able to leave!
"Fang Shengli, He Yuchen, the two of you gather another forty submachine guns. Xu Hu, transfer ten soldiers from the guard platoon to them. Gather fifty submachine guns and re-form the assault team. Huimin Road was right in front of them. The Japanese had definitely deployed a large number of troops there! Victory, you will lead the assault team and the other battalion will be the vanguard. We will directly attack!”
"Yes, sir!"
"Chang Debiao, go and tell our brothers that we will cross Huimin Road and enter Xing An Road from Longjiang Road to reach Old River Mouth. At that time, we can break out of the encirclement. Let the brothers work harder. After we break out, I'll treat everyone to a drink!”
"Good!"
Just as Zhou Weiguo and the rest were preparing to attack after spending a few minutes preparing, a soldier ran up from behind.
"Regiment Commander, the Japanese are catching up!”
"How many people are there? How far away are we?"
"There are about two squadrons of Japanese soldiers, one kilometer away from us!”
"Bastard! Why are you chasing me so closely!"
Zhou Weiguo cursed fiercely and shouted,"Brothers, victory or defeat depends on this move! If he charged over with all his might, he would win!”
"He Yuchen, use the mortars and smoke grenades to cover us!”
Actually, Zhou Weiguo didn't even need to say anything. He Yuchen had already ordered the artillery to be ready.
Zhou Weiguo pulled the bolt and roared,"Assault team in front, submachine guns and machine gunners behind. Immediately attack the Japanese's position. We must break through the Japanese's encirclement in the first wave, or we will all die here. Charge!"
"Kill ~ Ah ~"
"Charge ~ Ah ~"
...
The Japanese in front of them had just received a message that a group of Chinese soldiers were breaking out of the encirclement in their direction. They were already prepared.
When they could vaguely see the Chinese army charging 400 meters away from their position, they immediately gave the order!
"Kill ~ Give ~ Give ~"
The Japanese's Type 92 heavy machine gun rang out, and bullets began to shoot at the troops in front.
However, due to the poor visibility at night and the distance of 400 meters, other than the two commandos who fell, the others were not injured.
Just as the Japanese were firing at the two commandos in front of them, He Yuchen's 3rd Battalion's 30 mortars started firing.
"Boom ~"
"Boom ~"
"Boom ~"
...
A series of explosions killed many of the Japanese gathered there.
"Hurry up! Ammo! Fire! Fire all the cannonballs!"
Now was not the time to feel sorry for the cannonballs. It would be terrible if the cannonballs could not break out of the encirclement.
Zhou Weiguo and the rest were hiding behind a building. When they heard the two rounds of cannon fire, they immediately rushed out.
"Hurry up! Break out!"
The Japanese were suddenly bombarded by two rounds of artillery fire and were stunned. They did not expect the Chinese army to have so many mortars.
A Japanese commander shook off the dirt on his body and stood up angrily.
"Baka! Shoot! Shoot!"
He waved his sword and ordered the light and heavy machine guns to fire quickly.
However, Zhou Weiguo noticed his behavior.
He raised his gun and fired a few bullets at him.
"Grenade!"
When Zhou Weiguo saw that the distance was about 100 meters away, he immediately shouted.
Then, more than ten grenades flew towards the Japanese's sniper position.
Taking advantage of the time when the grenade exploded, Zhou Weiguo and the rest quickly approached the Japanese.
When the Japanese regained consciousness, they saw that the enemy was very close to them. They immediately rushed forward with their bayonet.
The Japanese behind them were afraid of hurting their own soldiers, so they immediately stopped shooting and rushed forward to fight with Zhou Weiguo and the others.
"Bang ~ Bang ~"
"Use your guns to finish them off quickly! Charge over!"
The Japanese were afraid of hurting their own people, but Zhou Weiguo was not afraid. As he shouted, he fired the bullets out of his gun.
At this time, the power of the large number of submachine guns, pistols, shotguns, and other weapons that Zhou Weiguo had distributed to them was reflected.
The Japanese's Type 38 rifle and bayonet were indeed a good weapon, but in terms of melee firearms, submachine guns could definitely defeat them.
Countless bullets swept the Japanese to the ground. This situation made the Japanese people scream in anger.
Zhou Weiguo couldn't care less. He led his men to kill the Japanese while charging forward. The soldiers behind them did not want to continue fighting. They quickly killed the Japanese who were close to them and followed the troops in front.
The Japanese that were being blocked here were basically being attacked by Zhou Weiguo.
To be honest, the Japanese had been able to break through so quickly because they were still on the streets. They could not use their advantage. In addition, their firepower was not good. In a narrow place like the street, once the street entrance was suppressed by the mortars, you would not be able to display your firepower advantage and would be approached by the enemy.
