83. Three Bloody Battles

Commander Sun sat at the headquarters of the 41st Army and called the 117th Brigade, and he was most worried about the East Gate. Brigade Commander Ding told him about the adjustment of the positions held by the brigade units and the 18th Regiment in the northeast.

The position of the 18th Regiment was located in the middle of Dongheng Street, and the Northeast men had the strength and hatred of the Japanese invasion to the core. Outside the scope of the brigade headquarters, they dug two more trenches to the east and made preparations to delay the Japanese army as much as possible. The 18th Regiment was in accordance with the unified replenishment sequence of the military department, and most of the troops accepted were Liu Guitang's escaped routs, after all, they were all from the Northeast Army, and they felt very cordial when they saw their fellow villagers.

The southern section of Donghengjie until Minamisangen was guarded by the 233rd Regiment. Regimental Commander Li Shusen, Deputy Miao Ziping and Chief of Staff Xie Zhanfang, Fang Xuanliang, commander of the 6th Battalion, Mao Suiyuan, commander of the 7th Battalion, Ma Shuchang, commander of the 8th Battalion (the former battalion commander Hong Guoren died in Bai Yinnaoer), Liu Songnian, commander of the special service battalion, Lu Pinsan, commander of the reconnaissance battalion, Zhang Wanshui, commander of the guard company, and other commanders gathered at the headquarters of the 117th Brigade in the main room of Li Jimi's courtyard at the east end of Sandao Street.

At this time, it was more than ten o'clock in the morning of March 3, and the cold guns and cold guns of the devils were already constantly firing at Hongmiaozi and other positions.

Regiment Commander Li Shusen said: "All the commanders have arrived, I will get straight to the point, there is no need to talk about the fortifications in the positions of each battalion, what I want to talk about is the morale of the officers and soldiers who are the main body of the battle. If you fight the enemy, if your morale is high, you will have a good chance of winning, and if your morale is low, you will be defeated. How can morale be improved? Relying on self-confidence and courage, we are no longer the old guns and cannons we used to be when we first came, and the 38 big covers abound in the hands of our soldiers. In addition, we have been in frequent battles with the devils, and we have mastered their tactics and can hold them down. And then we have the support of the people behind us......"

Wang Weiliang, director of the Political Training Division, rushed back from the army, and he conveyed the problem of being flexible in playing style after morale is established.

When the chiefs heard this, they all rubbed their fists and went back to have a big fight with the devil. After Regiment Commander Li finished speaking, Deputy Miao Regiment and Chief of Staff Xie emphasized some key points on the division of the positions of each battalion. The Hongmiaozi position belonged to the Eighth Battalion, which was not only too forward, but also an open field, with no other characteristics except for the depth of the trench. Chief of Staff Xie said: "Battalion Commander Ma, the brigade headquarters means that it is best for your battalion not to defend its position, and when the devils are shelling, try to hide in the concealment department." After the shelling, the devils swarmed up, trying to avoid its edge and hit it in the waist. If you want to take it by surprise, you will concentrate your firepower and fight to the death......" will disperse, and the battalion commander Ma basically understood the meaning of the regiment, and hurried back with the other commanders.

The 234th Regiment guarded the northern section of Dongheng Street, and the 9th, 10th and 11th Battalions were arranged from south to north. The commander of the reconnaissance company, Lu Shilang, led the reconnaissance company to the village of Shundaozi, and they observed the devil's troop equipment and artillery position from a distance. The regimental headquarters quickly informed the brigade of the location of the devil's artillery squadron. Although the 13th Artillery Regiment soon received an order from the military headquarters to quickly fire at the Shundaozi artillery position northeast of Hongmiaozi, it could not fully confirm the specific location of the Devil's artillery position.

At this time, the artillery squadron of the 7th Wing had begun to fire at the Hongmiaozi position. The 13th Artillery Regiment of the 41st Army also adjusted its coordinates and immediately opened fire on Shundaozi. The large-caliber recoil guns of the 13th Regiment were made in Germany, although they were old and powerful, and after a burst of artillery bombardment, they dumbed out five devilish infantry guns.

When Motegi Maenotsuki heard that the defenders' artillery had dumbed the artillery squadron of the 7th Wing, he was so angry that he scolded: "Baga, I didn't dumb their artillery, they dared to dumb our artillery and eat the gall of a leopard?" Kamekai Tataro Osa, prepare, first blow up the artillery positions in Nanshan Shina......"

Kamekai Tataro Osa had been waiting there for a long time, and when he heard Motegi's words, he snapped to the ground, put his hands to his side, nodded and shouted, "Hai." Motegi said loudly: "I order the artillery brigade to completely smash the artillery position of Nanshan in Shina, otherwise you will come to see me with your head raised......" was already hysterical.

Kamebetutaro Osaku shouted Hai again, strode out of Motegi's headquarters, and flew on his horse to rush to the Lushun Heavy Artillery Brigade in Shangshui. In front of him, the herald, Captain Amada, had already arrived first. Before the turtle had reached the position, he saw the eleven large-caliber cannons on the far left, loaded in the chamber, waiting for his order.

Seeing that the captain of the Kamekai Tataro Brigade arrived on horseback, the chief of staff, Ryu Qiutaro, and other members of the headquarters stepped forward to greet him. Before he could stand firmly, he ordered directly on his horse: "Xiaoshan Squadron, Chiyuan Squadron, target the Nanshan Shina artillery position, bombard me ......"

After more than 20 artillery regiments of the 41st Army in Nanshan were fired, the artillery sound of the Japanese army's eastern position was already dumb. They knew that the Japanese were adjusting, or were detecting the coordinates of this side, so they immediately adjusted their position. However, it was a little late, and the large shells of the eleven cannons of the Lushun Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Japanese army came one after another. The positions of the 13th Artillery Regiment were blown to shreds. The military headquarters immediately ordered the 14th Artillery Regiment located in the area of the South Gate to send an artillery battalion to Nanshan to support.

At the Hongmiaozi position, the Japanese army swarmed up like a flock of sheep, and the defenders in the position opened fire on the Japanese army with dense firepower. The Japanese army fell one piece, and then a large one was topped. The Japanese fire was so heavy that each squadron had machine gun squads, and each squad had several grenadiers. Fortunately, the defenders had gained experience and assigned special personnel to blow up his grenadiers with grenades and captured grenades. With a sudden melee combat, cut off the head with a broadsword, and hit him with a machine gun crew. The Japanese army went crazy, the defenders became more and more courageous, and the Hongmiaozi position fell into a bloody battle.

In the northern section of East Street, the 234th Regiment clashed with the Japanese Army's 7th Wing Jiuzuka Men's Brigade, which was a pair of battlefield rivals, and in the Battle of North Hill, they had been killed to the death. At the beginning of the battle, the red eyes were killed, and the bullets fired at each other were like raindrops. Fortunately, the 234th Regiment relied on the house, and Motegi did not allow the Kutsuka Men's Brigade to use heavy artillery.

Speaking of the North Gate, although the battle of the 118th Brigade was not as tragic as the Hongmiaozi position, on the contrary, both sides were very calm. But on the front of the 118th Brigade's defense, there were two Japanese troops, one was the 17th Wing and the other was the Okokokagi Brigade. Most of them are still Kumamoto's children, and they are belligerent by nature, brave and ruthless, not only have mature attack tactics, but also have rules and methods for fighting bayonets, and attack and cover are interlocked. How could the defenders pick up their experience with their broadswords, and there were houses and trenches to cover each other. Such a battle was painful for both sides. It's just that under the red peak, by the Laoha River, life keeps falling, and blood stains the land red.

The battle between the 119th Brigade and the 73rd Wing of the Japanese Army was different from the other two positions, and the commander of the 73rd Wing, Zuo Shijiaofu Dazuo, had been trying to find the defender 117 Brigade to fight and fight it, but he didn't meet it. In addition, Motegi did not allow heavy artillery to bombard the house, so the Zuo Shifu Osa was even more resentful of Motegi. The Japanese attack was intermittent, and Zuo Shijio wanted to see Motegi attack quickly, so he pushed forward, and Motegi was delayed, so he slowed down his firepower. That's it, both sides are also dead and wounded. The smoke of gunpowder on the battlefield is mighty and holds the red mountain, and the wind cannot disperse.

At around eleven o'clock, the high commands of both sides received a message one after another. The 4th Brigade of the Motegi Cavalry was attacked by what may have been the local Anti-Japanese Union and the Volunteers, and almost all the shells were blown up, and there were different casualties. The 13th Wing, stationed in Okuta, was pursuing the attackers with all its might, and Ono Tataro Osa's mistake had been repeated, and Chief of Staff Katsuta was in command. At the headquarters of the 41st Army, Adviser Li received a message from Wang Yilun that the 1st Black Mountain Detachment of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance and part of the Fuxin Volunteer Army blew up all the artillery shells of the Japanese army to support the 41st Army in Chifeng City.
