    Zhou Weiguo's telegram to persuade him to surrender was indeed what he imagined. Yan Junliu refused to surrender in a very decisive tone.

    At the same time, a telegram was also sent, asking Zhou Weiguo to withdraw his troops immediately, otherwise Zhou Weiguo would be buried when their army arrived.

    The little devils in the Third Division in the city were clamoring feverishly to teach the Eighty-Eighth Group Army a lesson, but what they didn¡¯t know was that those in the 116th Division were looking at the fighter planes circling in the sky, and then looked at them.  Watching the leaflets persuading surrender falling from the sky.  Underneath their faces that fanatically clamored for a fight to the death, there were other thoughts hidden.

    For these soldiers who already have wives and children, they are no longer carefree young people, nor are they the fanatical militarists they used to be.

    If the war had not broken out, they might still be thinking about how to earn more money to support their families this month.  [In history, many little devils surrendered. You can check the history. The national army at that time captured many little devils.  Of course, there weren't many prisoners in 1937 or 1938.  During this period in history, the Little Japanese's standing divisions suffered little losses, so they did not recruit many reserves.  Now in this article written by Xiaolong, because the protagonist eats a large number of troops from the Little Devils standing division and continuously consumes the strength of other divisions, the top leaders of the Little Devils continue to recruit reserves into the army, which results in many wives and children.  A large number of soldiers were recruited into the army.  ¡¿

    Society has smoothed away their original ambitions, and now some of them are thinking about how to survive the war, rather than the so-called jihad.

    ?¡­

    The little devil refused to surrender, and Zhou Weiguo didn't take it seriously. Anyway, his goal was almost achieved.

    On May 19, 1938, the day before the Little Japanese reinforcements set off, Zhou Weiguo issued an attack order.

    "The 152nd Division will be the main attack, the 135th Division and the 136th Division will be the auxiliaries, and the 132nd Division will be on standby behind!"

    This is Zhou Weiguo¡¯s plan. It¡¯s actually very simple. The 152nd Division had been watching a show before.  No one in this infantry division had any merit in attacking Nanjing this time.

    As long as they capture Nanjing, it will be a great achievement.

    In the next street battle, the 132nd Division will still be the main force.

    After all, street fighting is a battlefield that tests the quality of soldiers.

    Various situations may occur in street fighting. More than half of the 152nd Division suffer from heart problems, so it is not suitable for the brutal street fighting that follows.

    But the 132nd Division was different. They had already fought street battles when they were in Zhenjiang, and the soldiers inside had just undergone the baptism of blood. Their murderous intent was at its heaviest and their morale was at its highest.

    ????????????????

    "Boom~"

    "Boom~"

    "Boom~"

    ?? Continuous explosions exploded on the walls of Nanjing City. This time, the little devils obviously wanted to engage in street fighting with the 88th Army and use street fighting to hold back the 88th Army.

    So the little devils immediately gave up their positions outside the city and huddled inside the city.

    ¡°And the Third Division of the Little Devils here is also equipped with 120 mm caliber heavy artillery, so they deployed heavy artillery in the city.

    "No! The walls of Nanjing City are too thick! Our divisional artillery regiment simply can't blast through the walls!"

    While the divisional artillery regiment of the 152nd Division was shelling continuously, Wei Yunsong and his deputy division commander Yang Chengxi were observing the situation ahead with binoculars in the underground headquarters outside.

    When he saw that the 105-caliber artillery could only leave a small crater in the city wall, Wei Yunsong knew that his divisional artillery regiment would not be able to blast through the city wall of Nanjing.

    Soon, Wei Yunsong¡¯s telegram was placed on Zhou Weiguo¡¯s desk.

    "Mr. Soseki, immediately send an order to the 1st Heavy Artillery Division and ask Du Qingming to pull up our 155-caliber cannon and blast it! I don't believe that the walls of Nanjing City are really so thick that even the 155-caliber cannon can't blast them open!"

    Zhou Weiguo thought for a few seconds and then quickly made a decision, that is, to pull the heavy artillery up.

    "No! Chief, once heavy artillery is used, civilians in the city will be accidentally injured if you are not careful. Now is the time for you to increase your reputation. If heavy artillery accidentally injures civilians, it will be a big blow to your reputation.  !¡±

    Yang Jie held Zhou Weiguo's hand and said very seriously.

    Zhou Weiguo shook his head: "Mr. Soseki, those reputations are all fake. If we don't use heavy artillery to blow down the city wall, then we will have to use the lives of our soldiers"?Make up for our mistakes.  We can't be those saints who talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality!  "

    Hearing what Zhou Weiguo said, Yang Jie slowly let go of his hand. He also knew in his heart that he had thought too much.

    The troops here are all the elites of the Eighty-Eighth Group Army. It would not be a good thing if there are too many losses

    "Go immediately and send the order to have all the cannons aimed at the city walls of Nanjing! Remember, you must be precise and precise, and show your usual training results. If you make another mistake this time, countless civilians will be killed because of you.  Loss of life, do you understand?¡±

    After receiving the order, Du Qingming gathered his troops and told them Zhou Weiguo's order.

    "Du Qingming, how many civilians will die if we use heavy artillery to bombard the city? Can you guarantee that all the soldiers under your command are the same as you? If a round of artillery hits the residences in the city, how many civilians will die? These are heavy artillery!  "

    Yang Zhihua next to him was shocked when he heard that heavy artillery was going to be used to attack the city.

    "Yang Zhihua, stop talking nonsense to me. If we don't use heavy artillery to bombard the city, how many of our soldiers will die? And as long as we pay attention, we will be fine."

    Du Qingming waved his hand and told him to leave it alone.  How could Du Qingming not know the consequences of heavy artillery shelling the city, but so what if he knew?

    Should you abandon your brothers and save the common people you have never met, or should you abandon your brothers who are desperately trying to save you?

    And if they were to bombard the city with heavy artillery, if they were more conservative and aimed at the city wall in front, the problem shouldn't be too big

    The heavy artillery began to roar. These roaring heavy artillery were all cannons.

    Because the penetrating power of cannons is stronger than that of howitzers.

    If you want to bomb underground fortresses or bunkers, you usually use cannons.  As for field lethality, howitzers are used. It can be said that these are two types of artillery with different functions.

    As the heavy artillery began to roar, the city wall suddenly shook violently, as if it was about to collapse.

    ¡°Then the heavy artillery deployed by the Japs in the city also started shelling.

    The reason why they did not shell before was to wait for the heavy artillery unit of the Eighty-Eighth Group Army to fire.  Yan Junliu has stayed in Nanjing for so long, and naturally has a deep understanding of Nanjing's city walls. He knows that ordinary artillery can hardly cause much substantial damage to Nanjing's city walls.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
