The two squadrons of the Japanese army, after receiving the order of Takeda Yoshi, immediately began to return to defend Taihe Street.

At this time, Taihe Street was already in chaos ahead. A large number of barricade positions, occupied by soldiers of the third battalion.

Some companies, under the leadership of Wang Daliu and Chen Haochen and others, have even begun to organize defensive positions after occupying the Japanese positions. Respond to the counterattack of the Japanese army.

The two squadrons of the Japanese army had just returned to Taihe Street when they saw a large number of comrades who had fled.

One of the squadron leaders directly stopped a disgraced Japanese soldier and shouted, "Who told you to retreat?" What about the co-captain? ”

The soldier said with a panicked expression, "Wing Commander····· Wing Commander: He has already served His Majesty the Emperor. ”

"It's impossible to !!" The Japanese squadron leader rebuked angrily, and then shouted to the Japanese soldiers behind him: "Immediately intercept all the intersections, gather all the people who have fled, and order them to follow us to counterattack, and we must recapture the lost positions!! ”

When the 500 Japanese soldiers who returned to the aid heard this, they immediately began to follow his orders and divided their troops to block the various intersections of the back streets of Tianhe Street.

Those Japanese soldiers who retreated in a hurry were chased and beaten to the back street by the third battalion of Qinchuan. They thought they had escaped from the neighborhood.

As a result, they had not gone far before their own men pointed guns to their heads and ordered them to immediately find their respective commanders, and then regroup and prepare to organize a counterattack.

"All of you, regroup at once!! Organize a counterattack!! Whoever dares to retreat without authorization, Lao Tzu killed him!! The squadron leader yelled.

Most of the low-level commanders of these Japanese troops are extremely high-quality, and they can do not mess up in the face of danger and deter those Japanese soldiers who fled in a hurry.

The Japanese soldiers were quickly gathered and regrouped, and those who could find their commanders were immediately incorporated into their original ranks. If you can't find it, you can make a temporary group and assign a commander.

In just over ten minutes, they had gathered six or seven hundred Japanese soldiers. With the addition of the original soldiers, they regained the strength of most of the company.

At this time, in the front block of Taihe Street, Qin Chuan, who was covered in blood, was carrying sandbags with his soldiers and hurried to build a position.

He knew that the Japanese counterattack would come soon, and it would be fierce. They had to be ready for battle until then.

At this time, the artillery bombardment of the national army had also come to an end.

Qin Chuan piled the three sandbags on his shoulders directly on the edge of the window, and then set up a heavy machine gun on it, and was attracted by the red signal flare fired above the night sky outside.

He knew that it was the signal that the national army had begun a general offensive. And the battle on his side was actually just beginning, because the Japanese army was just stunned, and after reacting for a while, they would immediately start attacking them.

In other blocks, the troops of the 88th Division, who were lying in ambush less than 200 meters away from the Japanese barricade positions and waiting for the order to attack, immediately shouted and charged at the dilapidated Japanese positions that had been bombed in front of them.

Their earth-shattering shouts of slaughter, after the roar of the cannonballs had ended, once again broke through the silence of the night and became the most piercing noise.

Looking down from the sky, you can see that a large number of soldiers of the Nationalist Army on the entire front have begun to charge at the Japanese positions under the light of flares. Like a tide and a tsunami, it slammed into the shore!

Long Yuhang, as the commander of the armored battalion, led seven or eight tanks under his command at this time and rushed to the front in the lead.

And in their rear, thousands of soldiers of the national army, charging behind their butts.

Flares were fired into the air, and the night sky was lit up by flaming magnesium strips, as if it were day.

The German-style helmets worn by the soldiers of the national army reflected a dull light under the light at this time.

Most of the soldiers in the armored battalion were eager to show themselves, and they directly stepped on the accelerator and let their tanks directly rush towards the Japanese position.

And the speed of the infantry's charge, where can it compare to these tanks, in the blink of an eye, they were thrown out of a distance of dozens of meters.

They were not in a hurry to catch up, because in the eyes of these soldiers, these tanks were thick-skinned, and like the tanks of the little devils, bullets could not penetrate them.

So they didn't care about the tanks at all, and some soldiers even fantasized that when the tanks washed the Japanese positions into chaos, they just had to go over and clean up the battlefield.

Long Yuhang was inside the cockpit of the tank, looking through the observation hole, looking at the block in front of him that was shrouded in darkness.

According to the previous reconnaissance, there was a neighborhood where the Japanese were stationed in front of us, but now there was no sign of an enemy attack.

This made him feel a little uneasy, but he still ordered his soldiers to move on. What he didn't know was that his own infantry, who was supposed to cover the tank to avoid being attacked by the infantry, had been thrown out seventy or eighty meters by his side at this time.

When they were less than thirty meters away from the Japanese position, a mortar shell suddenly landed not far behind them.

Hearing this explosion, the block that was originally in front of Long Yuhang was pitch-black, but at this time, seven or eight flares suddenly rose out, directly illuminating this block.

The light was even a little dazzling, and when this light sprinkled the entire block, Long Yuhang saw how much Japanese firepower was aimed at him in that block shrouded in darkness.

He saw that in the barricade position, the Japanese rifle machine guns and a large number of grenadiers had filled his sight. And on those buildings that have not yet been destroyed by shells, the Japanese have arranged complete machine gun positions.

"Rabbit give (fire!) ）！！ The long knife in the hand of the Japanese commander slashed down.

At this moment, all the firepower of the Japanese troops stationed in this neighborhood immediately poured bullets and mortar shells on the tanks of the armored battalion.

"Bang bang bang!! Dangdangdang!! ”

A large number of Japanese machine gun and rifle bullets fell on the armor plates of these tank vehicles, and the sound emitted was like a firecracker in the New Year, echoing in the ears of Long Yuhang and those tank drivers.

"Fire!!" Long Yuhang also roared.

With his command, the turret of the tank slowly rotated, and then began to aim at the Japanese position, firing fiercely.

On the tanks they drove, the weapons of battle were different. Some are armed with small-caliber artillery and large-caliber machine guns, while others are directly armed with two large-caliber machine guns in two batteries.

With the order of Long Yuhang, these fires simultaneously opened fire on the positions of the Japanese troops.
