    Reputation is a double-edged sword that can hurt others as well as yourself.

    When the Japs' heavy artillery troops opened fire in Nanjing City, a difficult choice appeared for Zhou Weiguo.

    That is whether the Air Force can blow up the Japs¡¯ heavy artillery.

    The Japs¡¯ heavy artillery is deployed in densely populated areas. Once bombed, it will definitely cause a large number of civilian deaths.  If it doesn't explode, our 1st Heavy Artillery Division may suffer losses in the next battle, and the losses may not be small.

    Before the heavy artillery bombardment of the city, as long as you pay attention to it and let the artillerymen of the 1st Heavy Artillery Division operate strictly, you can greatly reduce the casualties of civilians, and even a few civilians will not be injured or die in the end.

    But it¡¯s different now. Once the air force bombs here, the death of civilians is inevitable. It¡¯s a certainty.

    "Blow up! Order the air force to blow up all the heavy artillery of the Japs in the city immediately! Even if it causes accidental injuries to civilians, we will not hesitate!"

    Soon, Zhou Weiguo thought for less than ten minutes before making another decision.

    This time Yang Jie did not stop him, because he had already thought of this result. Since the city had already been bombarded with heavy artillery, what about using the air force to bomb it again?

    If you don¡¯t blow up the Japs¡¯ heavy artillery and let the Japs¡¯ heavy artillery bombard your own heavy artillery positions unscrupulously, once the heavy artillery division loses its ability to siege the city, the previous decision to siege the city with heavy artillery will become a joke.

    After receiving the order, the Stuka dive bombers that had been hovering in the sky immediately pounced on the Japanese heavy artillery troops below.

    The movement of these heavy artillery pieces was so loud, they had already noticed it.  Just because this was in Nanjing, there were a large number of civilians. Without an order from the Army Headquarters, even their Air Force Director Liu Suigang and Deputy Director Xu Huansheng did not dare to order bombing of the city. Once a large number of civilians were killed, they would still  Unable to take responsibility.

    "Your Excellency, Commander! Our heavy artillery in the city was attacked by the Chinese Air Force and has now been completely destroyed!"

    A staff officer walked into the headquarters of the Central China Dispatch Army and looked at the commander Yan Junliu sitting inside and said.

    "I know! Go down!"

    Yan Junliu did not get angry as he expected, but waved him down calmly.

    After the staff officer left, a kid with the rank of Colonel came out of a room behind Yan Junliu's headquarters. If Zhou Weiguo were here, he would definitely recognize him as his friend in country D.  Shun Takeshita taught him how to speak Japanese.

    "Takeshita-kun, when do you plan to take action?"

    Yan Junliu asked Takeshita Jun, who was sitting opposite him.

    "Don't rush! Wait until the battlefield is almost complete before taking action. But I didn't expect Lord Wei to become a superior in such a short period of time, commanding an army of 200,000 people. Now even the imperial army has repeatedly attacked him.  Defeat at hand!¡±

    "Takeshita-kun doesn't seem to care about the empire's failure? Instead, he admires this Chinese general. He actually smiles so happily!"

    Yan Junliu looked at Takeshita Jun and said calmly, although he was very dissatisfied with Takeshita Jun's performance just now, but Takeshita Jun came from a famous family, so he could not shake it.

    "Your Excellency, Commander! I am just happy that my friend has achieved such an achievement. But I know what I am doing. Please forgive me, Your Excellency, Commander!"

    Yan Junliu nodded, sat down and poured a cup of tea for Takeshita Jun himself and asked: "Are you going to take action against Zhou Weiguo himself this time?"

    "No! Mr. Wei's special operations in Country D are no worse than mine, so I want to make him lose his cool first, and then attack him!"

    Takeshita Jun smiled and shook his head, as if he always had a smile on his face.

    Yan Junliu nodded and said nothing more. Anyway, Takeshita Jun can handle these things by himself. He only looks at the results, not the process.

    ?¡­

    When Yan Junliu and Takeshita Jun were sitting in the headquarters drinking tea, the Nanjing city wall finally began to collapse after enduring countless cannon bombings.

    First there was a gap only a few meters wide, and then there were more and more such gaps several meters wide.

    When the time entered noon, these gaps several meters wide were suddenly connected by the bombing, forming a large gap more than 200 meters wide.

    And when this big gap was formed, the remaining little Japs on the city wall immediately began to withdraw into the city in an orderly manner. It seemed that they had a plan a long time ago and had no concern about the city wall being blown open.??Accident.

    When this situation was reported to Zhou Weiguo's headquarters, he understood that not only was he preparing in the past few days, but the little devils were not idle either. They were probably also preparing in the city.

    "Order the 152nd Division to start entering the city, but don't go too deep, just keep a certain amount of pressure on the little devils!"

    Zhou Weiguo stood in front of a map of Nanjing and said without turning his head.

    No one answered, but Zhou Weiguo knew that the combat staff must be recording orders.

    "Yuchen, have all shotguns, pistols and other weapons and equipment been distributed?"

    Zhou Weiguo turned around and looked at He Yuchen and asked.

    The reason why the attack was postponed until May 19th this time was to prepare for street fighting.

    Zhou Weiguo knows that street fighting is cruel, but he also knows that sniper rifles, submachine guns, shotguns, and pistols are all sharp weapons in street fighting. They can very well reduce the casualties of his own soldiers and cause great casualties to the enemy!

    Among them, the two infantry divisions, the 132nd Division and the 135th Division, specially carried out special temporary changes.

    Each infantry squad is equipped with three submachine guns and two shotguns.

    At the same time, pistols are equipped to every soldier.

    In other words, every soldier is equipped with a pistol, but there is still only one sniper in each infantry squad. This has not changed.

    The weapons and equipment of each infantry squad that underwent a temporary change of equipment changed.

    First, an infantry squad of twelve people was originally configured with two machine gunners, using a Bren light machine gun. Among the remaining ten people, there was a squad leader and two deputy squad leaders, who used submachine guns.

    So, one of the remaining seven people used a sniper rifle, and the remaining six used G43 semi-automatic rifles.

    Now there are six submachine guns, two shotguns, one sniper rifle, and one G43 semi-automatic rifle.

    This configuration is not good in field combat, but it is a very good configuration in street fighting

    "The two main divisions in street fighting, the 132nd Division and the 135th Division, have all been redressed!"

    He Yuchen replied.

    "Okay! Let them prepare to enter the city!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
