    Looking at the enemy who was only a few meters away from him, the soldiers on both sides roared and collided directly.

    The soldiers of the Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army thrust their bayonets at the Japanese army.

    Suematsu Shigezhi was on the rooftop in the distance, watching the battle above the city wall.

    "Order the machine gunners at the rear to block the gap." Shigeshi Suematsu said loudly.

    "Butour soldiers are still fighting with the enemy." The division staff officer said.

    "Didn't you understand my order?" Suematsu Shigeshi said with bloodshot eyes.

    "Yes!!" the staff officer shouted, and ordered the machine gunners in the rear to start shooting at the gap.

    "Da da da!!"

    The Japanese heavy machine guns began to roar.

    Dense bullets flew towards the two sides fighting on top of the city.  Those bullets not only hit the bodies of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army and Fourth Army, but also hit Japanese soldiers.

    "Fuck! The little devil is so cruel!" Xia Yang was very surprised when he saw in the telescope that the Japanese army shot and killed even his own soldiers.

    "What to do? Military seat." Ma Siyuan also saw this scene, and was very heartbroken when he saw those soldiers being shot and killed by Japanese machine guns.

    "Let them withdraw first. This little devil's move is quite cruel." Xia Yang ordered.

    "Yes!!" Ma Siyuan said loudly.

    The soldiers who were fighting with the Japanese army on the city wall hurriedly retreated when they saw the order to retreat from the rear.

    The top of the city wall was covered with the corpses of soldiers from both sides.  Many of them were knocked down by machine gun bullets fired by the Japanese army.

    Seeing that the first round of attacks was repelled, Suematsu Shigeshi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

    He immediately ordered his soldiers to clear away the corpses on the city wall, and at the same time, build a new position on the city wall that had been bombarded into ruins.

    The failure of the first wave of attacks forced Xia Yang and the others to start thinking about a new combat plan.

    If you only use this method, although you can eventually bring down the city wall, it will increase the casualties of the troops.

    This group of Japanese troops suffered successive defeats, but until now, their will to resist has been very determined.

    "How about we dig tunnels?" Xia Yang looked at the trenches in front of the city wall and said to everyone.

    "Go directly to the city?" Ma Siyuan asked.

    Xia Yang nodded and said: "Yes, dig into the city. But in the meantime, we need to maintain the offensive against the Japanese army from the front."

    "But, if we dig into the city, we need to have a good understanding of the situation in the city." Li Yunlong said, "Otherwise, wouldn't it be embarrassing if the tunnel exit excavated directly into the kid's camp?"

    Xia Yang said: "Don't worry, I will ask the city's internal intelligence to provide us with an accurate floor plan to indicate the distance and direction of digging the trench."

    "Okay, then I will organize the soldiers immediately." Ma Siyuan said.

    The forefront of the trench is only more than 300 meters away from the city wall guarded by the Japanese army.

    From the city wall to the residential areas in the city, the distance is less than 500 meters.  They need to dig such a distance until they reach somewhere in a residential area, and from there they can circle back to the rear of the Japanese army.

    This force that sneaks into the city does not need too many people. About a thousand people are enough.

    ¡° However, they need to be elite troops with strong combat effectiveness, and such a task undoubtedly falls on the guard battalion.

    In Hunyuan County, in a house belonging to Sun Qi, several radio stations are working.

    They have received orders from Xia Yang and need a precise floor plan.  At the same time, they also need Sun Qi to lead people to dig in the city, and eventually join the excavation troops outside the city wall.

    In this way, they can greatly save time on digging.

    After both parties determined the exact location of the excavation, they began to excavate quickly.

    In order to increase the speed of excavation, Xia Yang invested a full regiment of troops and replaced it with four groups of people to rotate the excavation.

    But while digging the trench, Xia Yang and the others did not stop their attack on the ground.

    However, these attacks are not as desperate as the first time, they are more of feints.

    The Japanese troops stationed on the city wall were suppressed by intensive firepower.?I'm out of breath.  But they never saw the enemy rush to their city wall and engage in hand-to-hand combat with them.

    Suematsu Shigeshi always felt that there must be something fishy about the enemy's feint attack.

    He ordered the troops to strengthen the defense on the city wall at night and not to give the enemy any chance.

    Suematsu Shigeshi was worried that the feint attack during the day was because Xia Yang was relaxing his vigilance, thinking that the intensity of their attack was only this level.

    Then at night, launch the most violent attack on them.

    What he didn¡¯t know was that at their feet, the troops digging into the tunnel were quickly transporting the excavated soil out using small carts.

    The soldiers digging at the front used many small earth crushers to carry out the excavation.

    This kind of excavation is very fast, much faster than digging with a shovel.

    The soldiers in the tunnel mostly have to transport the excavated soil.

    Xia Yang originally wanted to build a conveyor belt directly, but that would be a waste of time, and the sound of a large number of motors operating would likely be discovered by the Japanese army.

    The tunnel they dug can only be passed by two people side by side.  However, even such a narrow tunnel can still transport some heavy machine guns and personnel into the city.

    In the direction of their excavation, Sun Qi also led his soldiers to dig quickly.

    However, their speed is much slower than Xia Yang who uses a soil crusher and has sufficient manpower.

    They dug from noon until nightfall, with almost no time to stop.

    The Japanese army stepped up its defense of the city wall. Many Japanese wounded in the city hospital returned to the battlefield after simple treatment of their wounds.

    Suematsu Shigeshi was still patrolling the position at night.

    What surprised him was that the enemy made no movement at night and did not launch a night attack on them.

    However, Suematsu Shigeshi could feel that Xia Yang, the enemy commander on the opposite side, must be thinking of new ways to attack them.

    He has played against Xia Yang many times and knows that this person never plays according to common sense.

    The peaceful night made Suematsu Shigeshi feel a little uneasy, thinking that something was wrong.  Why are the enemies on the opposite side so honest?

    Even if there was no attack all night, the Japanese soldiers stationed on the city wall would not dare to sleep all night.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
