frontal attack against the walls, re-
calling wildly the romances of the
middle ages, has just been completed
at Chungking, recaptured not long
ago from General Yang Sen, one of
WI Pei-fu's henchmen. The attack
ers were SzechwaneZe, some Of them
natives of the city itself.
Not more than 900 men participated
in the attack, but such was their in
trepidity that they effected a landing,
under gunfire, from boats and scaled
the walls without other covering fire
than the minor missiles of two small
pieces of artillery.
Yang had held possession of the
city for several months, though his
line of communications on the Yang
tie river had been cut and all sup
plies shut off. Living conditions
within the town were terrible. There
was barely enough rice to keep life
in the inhabitants bodies. What
there was had reached a price four
times that normally charged. People
had money were near the point of
death at the time of the attack.
ChunGkinS is built on hill and its
walls proper are little more than
platforms on which the defenders
may stand and be sheltered by para
pets. Nine gates pierce these walls
and it was against one of these, fac
ing stream which flows alongside
the city, that the preliminary attack
was made. When this had assumed
considerable proportions about 20
large sampans or junks, loaded with
men pushed off from the further side
of the Yangtze, which flows along the
other side of the city. AS these ap-
preached the shore the attackers
massed in their bows and sprang for
the land. Gunfire dropped some but
the others kept on and, the defenders
being in large part occupied in stem
ming the attack on the gate on the
other side of the city, scaled the
wall and met the defenders hand to
hand on its top.
Within two hours they controlled
the CITY,.
