At the same time, on the battlefield of Luodian, a company-level unit took advantage of the dawn to leave the main battlefield of Luodian. They changed into the Japanese military uniform collected from the battlefield and rushed in the direction of Baoshan.
This troop consisted of about a hundred people and belonged to the 11th Division of the Central Army. They were the elites of the elites.
Their company commander was Xu Haodong, the sniper who had mixed in with Xu Guoren and Niu Dagen (Ding Dali). His current identity was Huangpu Seventh Class graduate, a captain and company commander of the Central Army. Yesterday, when Xu Guoren created Lion Forest Stronghold and won the great battle at Treasure Mountain City.
Xu Haodong felt that Xu Guoren was the captain of Dragon Shadow. Otherwise, it was impossible for an ordinary person to achieve such a brilliant result with just a thousand soldiers.
In order to prove his guess, he had asked his superiors to lead his troops to rescue Baoshan, but he was rejected.
Therefore, Xu Haodong secretly prepared and ordered the soldiers to take advantage of the shrinking of the Japanese forces yesterday to clean up the battlefield. They took more than 100 sets of Japanese military uniforms and shoes from the corpses of the Japanese.
Today, he was shocked to hear that Xu Guoren and Yao Ziqing had sent a message saying that they would defend Baoshan City to the death and swear to live and die with Baoshan City.
Therefore, Xu Haodong decided to take action immediately. He ordered his subordinates to change into the Japanese military uniforms. Before the two sides began a new offensive and defensive battle, they quietly left the battlefield of Luo Dianzhu and headed in the direction of Baoshan.
"Brothers, the elite group in Treasure Mountain is a group of indomitable heroes. We can't sit idly by and watch them fight alone. Therefore, I have decided to lead you to aid Baoshan and fight alongside them. I swear to live and die with Baoshan!”Xu Haodong led his troops in stealth while boosting their morale.
The officers and soldiers were also in Luodian, killing until their eyes turned red. They had an irreconcilable hatred for the devils. They were full of admiration for Xu Guoren and Yao Ziqing, the two heroic troops. Therefore, when they heard that they were going to Baoshan, not only did the soldiers not object, but they also expressed their support for Xu Haodong's decision.
In addition to Xu Haodong, there were also two small units, all of which used tricks such as deceiving the world and crossing the sea. They changed into Japanese military uniforms and quietly rushed to Baoshan.
They were the assaulter Zhang Ruofei and the deputy sniper Yang Haotian.
The two of them had also been reborn as officers of the Central Army. Just like Xu Haodong, after they learned that Xu Guoren had created Baoshan and won the Lion Forest, they rushed to Baoshan with excitement. Firstly, they wanted to verify their guesses. Secondly, they wanted to support this heroic army. They did not want them to die just like that.
Meanwhile, outside Treasure Mountain City.
The Japanese Third Division mobilized two field regiments and a heavy artillery brigade. Under the cover of the powerful firepower of the ship-borne aircraft and naval guns, they once again launched a full-scale attack on Baoshan.
In view of the enemy's strength, especially the Japanese's ship-borne aircraft and naval guns, Xu Guoren found Yao Ziqing and said,""Officer Yao, this is not a solution. No matter how strong our individual combat ability is, we can't compete with the Japanese's naval and aerial firepower!”
"Yes, the soldiers suffered great losses under the joint bombardment of the enemy. Brother Xu, do you have any good ideas?”Yao Ziqing nodded and asked.
Xu Guoren said," Yes. Give up the city defense and retreat into the city. Let the devils enter the city. Use street fighting, curtain fighting, sparrow fighting, and other small tactics to deal with the enemy. Use the various buildings and terrain in the city to exhaust the enemy." Once the enemy and the enemy form a dog-like formation in the city, the Japanese's cannons and aircraft will lose their effectiveness. Only then can we offset the enemy's firepower advantage.”
"Hmm, this is a good idea. Let's do it!”Yao Ziqing was also a smart person. He immediately understood Xu Guoren's intention and nodded happily.
Xu Guoren and Yao Ziqing immediately ordered the battalions to retreat and let the devils in.
"Kaka! The Chinese people couldn't hold on any longer. Charge in and kill them all!”Outside the city, some of the Japanese officers saw that the defenders had retreated and immediately waved their military sabers excitedly, shouting loudly.
Thousands of soldiers were also excited, shouting and swarming forward, all of them rushing towards Treasure Mountain City.
After Xu Guoren and Yao Ziqing discussed and decided on the strategy, they immediately went to the command center. Yao Ziqing was in charge of the command center. Xu Guoren's individual combat ability was so strong, of course, he would not stay in the command center. That would be a waste of talent.
Moreover, this kind of street fighting and close-range combat was something that Xu Guoren and Niu Dagen were good at.
In street battles, it would be a piece of cake for them to fight against a hundred people.
It could be said that the two of them were enough to stop the Japanese from attacking.
However, because the Japanese had too many troops, in order to prevent other directions from collapsing, Xu Guoren and Niu Dagen were not in the same defense zone. Niu Dagen was at the north gate and was responsible for supporting the east gate, while Xu Guoren was at the south gate and took care of the west gate.
At the southern gate of the city, about 500 or so Japanese infantry rushed through the gaps in the city walls and the city gates, swarming into the city.
Because the tanks of the Japanese had suffered heavy losses under the precise artillery fire of Xu Guoren and Niu Dagen, and the street fighting in the city was not conducive to the use of tanks, the tanks of the Japanese did not enter the city with the infantry.
When Xu Guoren came to the south, Xu Gensheng had already led more than 300 soldiers to fight with the enemy.
At this moment, the combined Middle Elite Regiment had a total of 1,400 soldiers, and they could deploy about 300 soldiers in each direction to defend.
Xu Gensheng led more than 300 soldiers, relying on the ruins of the buildings on both sides of the street, and suddenly opened fire when the Japanese entered the shooting range. They caught the Japanese off guard and caused more than a small team of casualties.
However, the Japanese soldiers quickly scattered and relied on the buildings in the city. With their precise shooting ability and skilled technical and tactical cooperation, they slowly turned the situation around.
The casualties of the defenders began to increase bit by bit. At this time, Xu Guoren arrived, holding a mid-range rifle. He first used two accurate shots to kill the two Japanese heavy machine gunners who were the biggest threat to Xu Gensheng and the soldiers.
Then, he crouched down and shifted his position. He stood up and raised his hand to shoot the Japanese commander who led the attack and shouted the loudest. He shot him in the head.
This caused a temporary chaos in the command of the Japanese.
Xu Guoren then came to Xu Gensheng's side and instructed him,"Don't fight the Japanese head-on. Be flexible and use the buildings in the city to fight the Japanese. Make full use of every house, every street, and every alley.”
Then, Xu Guoren gave Xu Gensheng and several officers a simple explanation of tactics such as street fighting, curtain picking, sparrow fighting, and so on, so that they could understand their tactical intentions.
As soon as the defenders retreated, the devils chased after them.
Xu Guoren stayed at the back and hid on the roof of a building. When seven or eight Japanese soldiers caught up with them with guns, he immediately threw the two cantaloupes grenades he had seized from the Japanese soldiers.
Boom! Boom! With two loud bangs, the flames instantly engulfed seven or eight Japanese. Xu Guoren did not even look at them and turned to leave. After the flames dissipated, the seven or eight Japanese were already dead or injured.
The Japanese retaliated by firing at the place where Xu Guoren was hiding, but they only broke some rubble and brick walls.
