    The West Gate of Baoding City slowly appeared in front of them.

    This place was not bombarded by Japanese artillery fire, so the city wall was still well protected.  After the soldiers on the city wall saw Xia Yang and his truck, they shone their searchlights on their faces.

    "But brothers from the Fourth Regiment." A man on the tower said loudly.

    Xia Yang replied loudly: "I am Xia Yang, the leader of the fourth regiment. I have been ordered to come to rescue the army commander and chief of staff trapped in the church and open the city gate!"

    The man was a staff officer from the military department, his name was Wang Fengwei. He remembered Xia Yang. When he heard his voice, he asked his men to open the city gate immediately.

    After entering the city gate, Xia Yang heard intensive gunshots and explosions coming from the streets in the distance.

    The fighting over there is still going on, but they can't open a gap in the front and rush into the church.

    "We have transferred three regiments, but several firepower points of the Japs have been set up. It is almost impossible for us to rush in." Wang Fengwei sat on the truck and said to Xia Yang.

    Xia Yang glanced at Song Yumo next to him and said, "Yumo, do you hear that? Those firepower points must be cleared first."

    Song Yumo touched the paint on his face and nodded: "Okay!"

    Wang Fengwei glanced at Song Yumo, and then said with some surprise: "Female?"

    Hu Sandao: "What's wrong with the girl? We, Yumo, have killed a platoon of little devils all over the city."

    When Wang Fengwei heard this, he looked with admiration at Song Yumo, who was adjusting the firearm with an indifferent expression.

    Xia Yang asked: "Do you have a map around the church?"

    After hearing this, Wang Fengwei took a topographic map from his arms and said: "Here, this is a temporary map I drew, but it is already very accurate. I have marked the streets and commanding heights here."

    Taking the map over, Xia Yang turned on the bright flashlight on his helmet and looked at the map carefully.

    This map was completely hand-drawn by Wang Fengwei, but both the scale and the logos are all correct.  In the center of this picture is the church.

    Xia Yang took a look, then pointed to the north of the church and said, "Did you draw the streets and buildings north of the church accurately?"

    It was already an area occupied by the Japanese army, and Xia Yang felt a little worried.

    Wang Fengwei said with certainty: "It's absolutely accurate. The place where I lived before was in that area, so I marked the streets inside very accurately, and I even marked the small alleys."

    "Okay, I believe you, Staff Officer Wang. You have a share of the credit for rescuing the Army Commander and Chief of Staff." After Xia Yang finished speaking, he turned his attention to the street ahead.

    ??Two hundred meters further forward is the fighting area.

    Xia Yang shouted: "Everyone, check the firearms!"

    Hearing Xia Yang's order, Wang Fengwei on the side heard the sound of rifles being loaded.

    It was only then that he noticed that the rifles used by Xia Yang's guard company did not seem to be formal.  It looks a bit like a flower trap, but not entirely.  Anyway, he has never seen such a firearm.

    Xia Yang glanced at the buildings on both sides of the street, then pointed to the top floor of a hotel and said, "Yumo, that place is good."

    Song Yumo also noticed that the rooftop of the hotel was indeed a good sniper position, which could cover the church within the attack range.

    Not only that, there are several tall buildings next to the hotel. The distance between each building is very close, which is very convenient for Song Yumo to move his sniper.

    At this time, they were less than a hundred meters away from the fighting area.  In front of the truck, stray bullets had even begun to hit the building next to it.

    "Start taking action!" Xia Yang shouted, and the soldiers of the guard company quickly got out of the car and began to complete the assembly on the street.

    Song Yumo directly carried his equipment and rushed towards the hotel next to the street.

    The waiter inside the hotel was startled when he saw a soldier rushing in with equipment all over his body.  This is the time for fighting, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are all soldiers.

    "Youwhat do you do?" the trembling lobby manager said, holding a mop in his hand as a protective gesture.

    Song Yumo glanced at him and said coldly: "Bring me the key to the rooftop! I want to go up!"

    The lobby manager was quite surprised when he heard that the voice was a woman.  But when he saw Song Yumo behindWhen he picked up the Barrett sniper rifle, he honestly took out the key and threw it into Song Yumo's hand.

    Song Yumo got it and ran upstairs like the wind.

    The rooftop was very open, and Song Yumo placed the sniper rifle on the marble fence.

    From this angle, you can have a panoramic view of the neighborhoods where the battle is taking place.  A really great sniping position.

    After she set up the rifle, she said through the intercom: "Regiment leader, I'm ready."

    Xia Yang nodded and said: "Okay, we are now northeast of you, you should be able to see us. We plan to break in from the flank, go behind the Japanese army, and then enter the church for rescue. You need to help us clear the fire points on the flank.  "

    Song Yumo said: "No problem, I'm already in place."

    After she said this, she began to look through the scope, concentrating on searching for the Japanese firepower points in the northeast.

    At this time, several regiments of the 59th Army focused their forces on the front, and the Japanese army also concentrated its main forces on the blocks on the front, launching a tug-of-war with them.

    Several regiments of the 59th Army here have carried out more than ten consecutive charges.  The Japanese defense was also very tenacious. Although they could not call for artillery support, they allowed mortars and grenade launchers to play a huge role in this kind of street fighting.

    Although these regiments have a great advantage in numbers, they do not have much advantage in terms of firepower.  In addition, the Japanese army was good at night combat, so after more than half an hour of fierce fighting, there was still no substantial progress here.

    Xia Yang led his four regiments of soldiers, taking advantage of the cover of night, to walk quickly through the alleys of Baoding City.

    There are so many alleys here, like a maze of twists and turns.  Without the very detailed map Wang Fengwei provided them, it would have been difficult for Xia Yang and the others to get around to the Japs' flank.

    After marching on the right wing for about ten minutes, Xia Yang saw from the shadow of the wall the building across the street, where a Japanese machine gun position was guarding.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
