It traveled a long distance along an arc and landed in the city.

"Boom!"

A house collapsed on the spot, burying the soldiers of the 29th Army who were standing inside.

Several more shells rained down, these shells merely marking the specific locations they were to attack.

"Scatter quickly, don't stay at the explosion point, take cover in the various bunkers, make sure you are hidden, don't get hit by the shells."

"Scatter immediately, don't hesitate, don't stay in one place."

The officers of each squad in the 29th Army shouted loudly.

They ordered their soldiers to spread out to both sides, instead of staying in their original positions.

As the shells continued to fall, the number of shells increased, and more houses were damaged.

The spot where they had originally stood was now riddled with deep craters from artillery shells.

The mud and sand surged, and part of the city wall collapsed directly.

The mixture of bricks and mud looked like an apocalyptic scene, where the destructive power of the shells was at its peak.

Fortunately, the squad leaders shouted in time, otherwise it could have caused huge casualties immediately.

The position was completely lost at this point, and there was no way to organize a defense.

Luo Junshan brought a considerable number of heavy artillery units with him at this time.

The entire heavy artillery system alone has more than 50 pieces.

The scene of the firing was also very spectacular, as if the entire sky was filled with flames.

Moreover, these flames attacked and fell from the mountaintop towards Taipei City at a considerable speed.

The sky seemed to have given up on the fireworks.

But this was meant to take lives; as the shells slammed into the ground, everything around them was leveled.

Waves of vibration emanated outwards, as if an earthquake had occurred.

The ground was even cracked from the impact, and a squad of soldiers, unable to dodge in time, fell into the cracks and were swallowed up.

The soldiers of the 29th Army began to panic.

The troops, including those belonging to the tank company of the New Third Front Army, were more composed than the soldiers of the 29th Army.

And they were sitting inside a tank.

They still had some defensive capabilities. As the shells rained down, the tank company commander immediately ordered the remaining tanks to attack the breach.

He knew that if they allowed these heavy artillery pieces to bombard them from afar, they would have no way to defend themselves.

In the current situation, the only option is to take advantage of the chaos to force the enemy to retreat.

That way they can better protect the safety of this district in Taipei, and besides, he already knows.

The main force of the 29th Army has begun to move back to encircle them, and it will not be long before they reach their heavy artillery positions.

Then we can take them all in one fell swoop.

With this in mind, the tank company commander immediately ordered his tanks to emerge from the shadows.

It sped along the street toward the gap, the tank moving rapidly forward.

They finally came into view in the firelight, at which point the frontline commander shouted.

"Everyone, pay attention! Immediately move forward and slow down the enemy tanks."

"Stop them from advancing no matter what."

"Mortars ready!"

"emission!"

Lightweight mortars are also available in the advance troops here.

There are eight doors in total.

At the commander's order, the mortars roared into action.

They aimed directly at the oncoming tanks and attacked them, including the tanks themselves. Of course, the tanks were very fast, and it was impossible to hit them easily by simply predicting their movement with mortar shells.

However, it did have some impact, forcing tanks to take evasive action, otherwise being hit would be quite painful.

While they were taking cover, several elite soldiers rushed out carrying explosive packs to the street.

After pulling off the fuse of the explosive charge, they threw it onto the path that the tank was bound to take.

A tank belonging to a tank company had just passed by when a roar of fire was seen.

They flipped the entire tank over first. Fortunately, the tank was quite heavy, so they managed to remain calm in this situation.

Although it was lifted up and landed without being affected in the slightest, this could be seen even as the tank shook.

A large group of soldiers from the 29th Army rushed out from the urban areas on both sides. They saw that the tanks were being attacked, so they came out.

Tanks must be coordinated with infantry to unleash their true power.

Chapter 355 Tank Defense! Dense Firepower!

As soon as these soldiers of the 29th Army charged out, the situation on the battlefield immediately began to turn around.

"Boom!"

As they began to move forward, the mountain city forces on the outskirts also quickly began to assemble.

They had already established a foothold at the gap, with three tanks forming a triangular shape at the very front of the column.

They effectively blocked the follow-up troops, preventing them from being attacked by the enemy.

Furthermore, several mortars were positioned behind their ranks.

Amidst the deafening roar of artillery shells, they relentlessly pounded into the urban area ahead, leaving it in ruins.

Under such circumstances, the defending teams in the city were also in a very difficult situation.

"Increase the force!"

"Inflict as much damage as possible on them."

"Then we'll be able to charge in all at once."

"Everyone, stop slacking off and hurry up!"

The commander of the Mountain City Army, who was launching an attack on the Taipei side, shouted loudly.

As soon as he shouted, the soldiers quickly assembled.

They ducked to avoid the bullets firing ahead and quickly followed the path cleared by the tanks at the front.

They rushed towards the breach and built a defensive position on the spot.

"They actually set up such a thick defensive line at the gap."

"This is going to be tough for us."

"I wonder if we can withstand this wave?"

The soldiers of the 29th Army who were staying in the city were discussing among themselves in hushed tones.

He expressed uncertainty and unease about the current situation.

"Stop talking and focus on dealing with the enemies that are attacking from the front."

"And don't reveal your figure unnecessarily."

At this point, the commanders and soldiers of each team began to pass on their messages, telling their soldiers not to be afraid.

Now all we need to do is stop them.

On the tank squad's side.

Due to continuous bombing, only three tanks remained in the entire tank company.

He gathered all three tanks together, but instead of showing them up, he left them in the city.

At this point, an attack from these three relatively close positions could cause enormous destruction.

However, the tank unit commander did not allow his men to fire freely at this moment.

While they were preparing, the 29th Army was also under tremendous pressure.

The continuous bombing and explosions at their ambush sites caused everyone to quickly move into their respective defensive positions at the beginning.

They avoided being hit by artillery shells, but the enemy forces on the other side gained momentum, dragging three abandoned tanks with them.

Once the forward positions were established, the city walls became less effective, and even a struggle ensued on top of them.

The 29th Army faced difficulties throughout Taipei.

Whether they can hold out is also unknown. Now it depends on what changes occur on the battlefield that could lead to a turning point in the entire war.

While the standoff was taking place on the front lines, Xie Jinyuan's New Third Army also accelerated its operations.

The 50-strong army was divided into several waves at this time.
