Even if I'm a useless bum at Whampoa Military Academy, I'll be invincible in the War of Re

On the east city wall, the Japanese soldiers were firing wildly when suddenly a volley of shells rained down from the sky, landing in the enemy ranks and instantly killing thirty or forty men, wiping out a squad.

The Japanese soldiers finally tasted the bitterness of being bombed, but they dared not relax in the slightest. The assault battalion below the city was coming in like a tidal wave, with shouts of battle shaking the heavens.

The Nagumo Battalion sent all three infantry companies to the East City, along with a machine gun company and an infantry artillery platoon. The two sides were evenly matched, but the firepower advantage of the Security Corps was enough to overwhelm the Japanese.

The Japanese troops were clustered together, which gave the artillery battalion an opportunity to bomb a large number of them, which was very satisfying.

Just as the Japanese troops on the eastern front were struggling to hold on, gunfire erupted on the southern front, and the Second Battalion launched an attack, keeping the Japanese troops busy.

Major Nagumo could only send one company from the East City for support, which weakened the defenses of the East City, and Qin Haitao's assault team once reached the city wall.

Under the pincer attack from the east and south by the Second Security Regiment, the Japanese were struggling desperately.

Wang Guohua put down his binoculars and shouted coldly:

"Signal the Baoshan Battalion, instructing them to flank the Japanese from the north and encircle them from three sides."

Shangguan Zhibiao couldn't wait any longer. Commander Wang's mission for them was to provide support, but he had no intention of just playing a minor role.

The isolated battalion is no longer what it used to be; it has long since upgraded from muskets to cannons. The artillery company has been equipped with two infantry guns and four 20mm mortars, and each infantry company also has three 60mm mortars. Shangguan Zhibiao feels that he is terrifyingly strong!

The first thing they did was prepare artillery fire, making a huge commotion and catching the Japanese off guard.

The western city only had one infantry squad, which could not withstand the bombardment of six artillery pieces. Before the isolated battalion could even launch an attack, they requested reinforcements from the battalion headquarters.

Major Nagumo was furious and cursed the soldiers as useless, but he still managed to draw two squads from the last reserve to reinforce them.

Major Yoshida said with concern:

"Nagumo-kun, isn't leaving just a small squad with you a bit too risky?"

Major Nagumo shook his head solemnly and said:

"Only by defending the city walls can we be safe!"

"The Chinese launched a fierce attack from the east, south, and north, with artillery in each direction, a typical encirclement strategy with one side open, trying to force the Imperial Army to break out from the west."

However, the city was stockpiled with a large amount of supplies, which could not be lost. The Nanyun Brigade did not even have the opportunity to break out; as long as they were in the city, they would remain there.

Even if we have to burn the supplies, we can't let the Chinese benefit from them!

Major Yoshida wholeheartedly agreed. A fervent militarist who had long since disregarded life and death, he offered his suggestion:

"Lord Nagumo, please give me a squad of warriors to guard the supplies. In the event that the city falls, I will detonate the ammunition depot and make all the Chinese people in the city pay with their lives for Nagumo's battalion."

"Yoshi, Yoshida-kun truly lives up to his reputation as the Empire's most loyal and valiant samurai. I'll leave the task of destroying the supplies to you!"

Yoshida left the command post with a shout of "Hey!" and soon after led a dozen or so Japanese soldiers straight to the train station.

Not far from the command post, a group of Japanese soldiers came towards us in two columns.

Major Yoshida initially thought they were officers changing shifts, but then realized something was wrong; these "warriors" were carrying submachine guns.

"Baka—Chinaman!"

He had just reached for the Nambu pistol at his waist when the officer in charge fired his submachine gun, and Major Yoshida fell down, riddled with bullets.

The one who fired at Major Yoshida was Yan Yunsong, the platoon leader of the reconnaissance company. He was ordered to infiltrate the city and was preparing to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese command post when he ran into Major Yoshida and his men.

Taking the initiative, Yan Yunsong opened fire first. His gunshot was the order, and the other scouts followed suit, firing at the Japanese soldiers. In just one exchange, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers were swept to the ground.

The gunfire revealed their intentions. Yan Yunsong had already taken this variable into account and immediately launched a full-scale attack.

The special operations team split into two groups and charged toward the Japanese command post. First, a volley of grenades cleared the way, causing the Japanese guards to scream in pain.

Then came rhythmic bursts of gunfire, with three men working together to annihilate the Japanese soldiers.

The main force of the Japanese troops was tied down on the city wall, and there was only one infantry company next to the command post. Yoshida also took another detachment with him, leaving little defensive strength. They were no match for the reconnaissance team.

They unleashed a frenzied massacre; the Japanese machine guns fired a burst, and a sniper's bullet blew his head open.

The combination of two submachine guns and a sniper rifle/bolt-action rifle overwhelmed the Japanese soldiers in the melee, and they stormed into the command post in a short time.

Major Nagumo raised his ancestral military sword and slashed at Yan Yunsong, who simply pulled the trigger, a burst of bullets flew out of the barrel, and the military sword clattered to the ground.

At seven meters, the gun was both fast and accurate.

The special operations team wiped out all the Japanese soldiers in Nagumo's battalion headquarters, paralyzing their command system and accelerating their defeat.

At the same time, squad leader Liu Wei led ten men to take control of the train station and killed seven or eight Japanese soldiers.

Under the fierce attack of the Second Battalion, the southern front made the first breakthrough. Most of the Japanese soldiers defending the city were killed or wounded, and the remaining soldiers retreated into the city. They also thought of taking advantage of the chaos to destroy the supply warehouse.

The soldiers of the Second Battalion chased after the Japanese soldiers, causing the Japanese soldiers at the East Gate to collapse.

The isolated battalion also made a breakthrough. The three powerful armies fought with increasing ferocity, and the Japanese were routed. The outcome of the battle was no longer in doubt.

Xie Polu had expected to win, but he hadn't anticipated such an easy victory, and exclaimed excitedly:

"I'd heard before that the 2nd Security Regiment was at a disadvantage against a Japanese infantry regiment, and I thought it was an exaggeration, but now it seems to be true!"

Zhao Yunwen was also a little proud, but he still humbly said:

"It's all thanks to the brothers' excellent fighting spirit. With the soldiers united, the situation is now settled. Let's go in and take a look."

Seeing that Zhao Yunwen was in high spirits, Xie Polu accompanied him as they strode toward the city gate.

Zhao Yunwen had the right to be arrogant after capturing Kunshan in just over three hours; he had earned the respect of the officers and soldiers of the isolated battalion through his own abilities.

[Ding dong, congratulations! Your unit has successfully recaptured the county from the Japanese invaders and has received a super gift pack. Would you like to claim it?]

Zhao Yunwen hadn't expected such an unexpected gain, and decisively used his consciousness to open the gift pack.

[Congratulations, host! The system warehouse has been upgraded, expanding to 20×100×100 meters, doubling its capacity.]

This is truly a super gift package. Zhao Yunwen was just worrying about not having enough warehouse space, and he was dozing off when this pillow was delivered to him.

Zhao Yunwen couldn't wait to become a porter:

"System, calculate how many supplies the Japanese have in their warehouse?"

[Host, approximately 220,000 tons, including over 120,000 artillery shells of various types, over 70,000 boxes of ammunition, 523,000 hand grenades, over 80,000 tons of food, 24 Type 92 infantry guns, over 5,000 rifles and pistols, clothing, medicine...]

Zhao Yunwen was so happy he almost fainted. "This is so much!" he exclaimed excitedly.

"Will the newly expanded space be able to accommodate it?"

[Host, calculations show the warehouse can hold 85% of the supplies. Should we fill it to the brim?]

Zhao Yunwen considered it in his mind. Many of the 150mm artillery shells and tank shells were not needed at all, and they were just taking up space in the warehouse. He might as well sell them off at a low price.

Thinking of this, he said:

"System, send you all the 150mm shells and tank ammunition. Calculate their contribution points."

[Buy back at 30% of the original price, totaling 143,000 points.]

"Sell it!"

[Congratulations, host, for adding 14.3 contribution points. Your current balance is 1055500 points.]

Finally, he had surpassed 100 million. Zhao Yunwen calculated in his mind that these contribution points were enough for him to build a small air force. Now he just had to wait for the Time and Space Shop to upgrade so that he could exchange for "Mustang" fighter jets to suppress the Japanese "Zero" fighters.

"System, move 85% of the resources into the system warehouse."

[Host, the supplies transfer has been completed.]

Zhao Yunwen opened the system panel, and the inventory of supplies inside made him very happy. These supplies were enough to assemble two Japanese mechanics, and his wealth was becoming increasingly substantial.

After Zhao Yunwen entered Kunshan City, Wang Guohua shamelessly reported to him:

"Commander-in-Chief, we've struck it rich!"

Zhao Yunwen feigned surprise and said:

"Great! Take me to see it!"
