Chapter 93
In the dark tunnel.
Zhang Kongyi was smoking silently with his back against the tunnel wall.
Less than ten meters away from Zhang Kongyi, there were more than 500 kilograms of high explosives placed neatly!
At this moment, the soldiers of the 367th regiment who broke through the ground were already fighting with the Japanese, but there was a silence in the tunnel and no sound could be heard.
The only thing Zhang Kongyi could hear was his own breathing sound.
While waiting in silence, Zhang Kongyi raised his left hand and looked at his watch. The time had already pointed to 0:38.
"Time is up!" Zhang Kongyi sighed softly, and immediately removed the remaining cigarette butt from his mouth and lit the fuse at his feet, which began to burn.
Seeing the fuse burning, Zhang Kongyi did not get up.
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Kongyi should get up quickly at this time and escape to the ground as quickly as possible to avoid burying him alive after the tunnel is blown down!
Unfortunately, no one can guarantee that there will be no problem in the fuse.
Once there is a problem with the fuse, it will be too late even if Zhang Kongyi returns to the tunnel to reignite it, because the 367th regiment has missed the best opportunity to break through!
On one hand, it is himself, and on the other hand, there are more than 500 remaining soldiers from the 367th Regiment. Which one is more important?
Zhang Kongyi chose the latter without hesitation, and the survival of the 367th regiment is above everything else!
The fuse less than 30 cm long was burning quickly to a short piece. Zhang Kongyi suddenly looked up and said to the top of the tunnel: "Zhong Yi, you must keep your word and take the 367th group out!"
In the next moment, a ball of blazing red light suddenly bloomed in front of Zhang Kongyi's eyes.
...
Return the time a few seconds ago.
Toshiki Kwanzaki got angry in his command center, and Nami Toshiro was scolded.
"Na Jianjun, what did you do?" Kōzaki den scolded with a dark face, "In less than half an hour, the Chinese soldiers pushed eastward for a full five hundred meters and directly advanced to the base of the city wall!"
"Hayi!" Na saw Minlang pausing heavily, then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Captain, the Chinese army is really too cunning. The direction they chose to break through was just between the two infantry squadrons of the 3rd Infantry Battalion, and before they broke through to the east, they also had feints to the north and south."
"This is not surprising." Usa Mirō interrupted, "As early as the Kingsoft Guard, the Imperial Army had fully experienced Zhong Yi's command attainments. Our detachment attacked Jinshan County for two days without any gains, which proved this point again. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Chinese Army performed this way in the breakout battle."
Hearing this, Na saw Toshiro and gave Usa Mitsuro a grateful glance, thanking him for speaking for him to help him.
Guozaki's face looked a little better, and then said, "After that being said, you must not let the Chinese army run away, especially Zhong Yi run away. You must catch him or shoot him to death!"
Usa Mirone said: "Your Excellency, the detachment leader, don't worry, the remaining Chinese soldiers in the city cannot escape, and Zhong Yi cannot escape, because the walls of Jinshan County are a natural barrier that they cannot overcome!"
As soon as the words fell, a faint explosion suddenly came from the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the ground began to tremble slightly, and the steam light hanging on the roof of the tent also fell down and went out.
"Baga, what's going on?" Kunizaki Ton touched the flashlight from the darkness, lighted it up, and said, "It seems like an earthquake like this? Can China also have an earthquake?"
At this moment, a chief staff officer hurried in and reported: "Your Excellency the Captain of the Detachment, a big explosion suddenly occurred under the ground in Jinshan County, and the city walls to the east were all blown up!"
"Nani?" Guozaki Toshi's expression changed suddenly when he heard this.
Namimi Toshiro and Usa Mitsuru also looked at each other.
The next moment, Usa Mirō reacted and shouted: "No, this is the Chinese army carrying out a blast!"
Then Na saw Minro also react and shouted, "The Chinese army has already been ready. When they break into the east wall and then blow up the wall, they can leave the city!"
"Baga!" Kunizaki Ton also reacted and said sternly, "Order, the 1st infantry battalion will entangle me at all costs in the breakout Chinese army, and the 2nd infantry battalion will encircle the outside of the city!"
"Hayi!" Na saw Toshirou and Sami slammed his head.
...
At this time, most of the remains of the 367th regiment had passed through the gap.
However, at this time, the Japanese in the city also caught up. In addition to concentrating firepower to block the gap in the city wall, two assault teams were also organized to launch attacks from both sides to the gap, trying to intercept the 367th Regiment that broke through, or even if they could not intercept the 367th Regiment, they should delay as much as possible and delay the advancement of the 367th Regiment.
Zhong Yi raised his hand and shot him, and the machine gun on the right side of the gap immediately became hoarse.
But the remaining few Japanese machine guns were still spitting out firepower violently. The dense machine gun firepower swept across like the flame whip of the god of death. Wherever they passed, the remaining soldiers of the 367th Regiment fell in rows.
In a blink of an eye, the Japanese rushing towards him were already within fifty meters!
Zhong Yi's brows immediately frowned. If the Japanese really entangled them, it would be a big trouble!
Once the Japanese behind him are entangled, the 367th Regiment's breakthrough speed will inevitably slow down greatly. At this time, the Japanese army will definitely encircle from outside the city, and by then the 367th Regiment will be completely finished.
In the city, they can also get involved with the Japanese by relying on the ruins of private houses.
But when you get outside the city, the Japanese can eat them in minutes!
Wang Zilong also realized the danger and said to Zhong Yi: "Commander-in-chief, this won't work. You should quickly lead the main force of the regiment to break through. I will lead the 3rd battalion to cut off the rear!"
Zhong Yi agreed and rushed down the gap without looking back.
As a veteran, Zhong Yi knew very well that it was not the time to apologize.
The most urgent task is to bring out the remnants of the 367th Regiment and protect this precious armed force for the country and nation!
Watching Zhong Yi disappear outside the gap in the city wall, Prince Long turned around and shouted: "3rd Battalion, cut off the rear!"
After hearing Wang Zilong's order, the officers and soldiers of the 3rd battalion who had just passed the gap in the city wall returned one after another and set up rifles on the gap in the city wall. Some officers and soldiers even climbed up the walls on both sides, set up various guns on the walls, and opened fire violently at the Japanese chasing in the city.
The Japanese who rushed over with a bayonet fell down in rows.
"Come on! Damn Japanese devils!" Wang Zilongping held up his shell gun and roared while opening fire violently, "Come to Grandpa, grandpa will send you back to the East China!"
Accompanied by Wang Zilong's roar, dazzling bullet tracks spread out in a fan shape.
