In the face of the Japanese Special Marine Corps, the 19th Route Army brazenly launched an attack on the 156th Brigade of Weng Zhaoyuan on our Zhabei front, and the situation was very urgent, at 1 o'clock on the 29th, the commander-in-chief Jiang Guangding, the deputy commander-in-chief of the 19th Army, Cai Tingkai, the deputy commander-in-chief, and Dai Ji, the commander of the Songhu garrison, jointly sent a telegram to all walks of life across the country:

"The violent Japanese occupation of our three eastern provinces, the discoloration of the territory, the dying of the nation, the recent murder and arson in Shanghai, the despicable and violent actions of the ronin everywhere and the world, everywhere."

"When the gunboats came, all the marines landed on the shore and openly invaded our defense line in Zhabei in Shanghai at 12 o'clock on the night of the 28th, provoking us.

"This heart and this ambition, the quality of the sky and the world, the spirit of the ancestors of Yan and Huang in the sky, the real formula is based on it."

At the time of the national crisis, the officers and men of the national army were iron-clad and fulfilled the secret order issued by the 19th Route Army on the 23rd: "If the Japanese army comes to attack, we will do our best to extinguish it." ”

The soldiers' attitude of resisting serving the country shows the ambition of "preferring to die for the sake of broken jade rather than stealing life for the sake of the whole tile".

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the State Government also issued the "Declaration on the Songhu Incident" on the 29th, indicating that it had to resist in the face of the Japanese attack.

On the same day, the Japanese government issued the "Statement of the Imperial Government on the Shanghai Incident," claiming that it had sent troops to protect the overseas Chinese.

The so-called protection of the diaspora was just a conspiracy of the Japanese army.

In order to cover the puppet Manchukuo concocted by the Japanese Kwantung Army, Seishiro Itagaki of the Kwantung Army secretly colluded with Takayoshi Tanaka, assistant military attache of the Shanghai Legation, to deliberately cause trouble in Shanghai in order to achieve the goal of stationing in Shanghai.

Takayoshi Tanaka conspired with Yoshiko Kawashima (Jin Bihui), a female spy who had fled to Shanghai and defected to the Japanese army, and instigated five people, including the Japanese monk Amazaki Keisheng, to walk more than 20 meters from the Sanyou Industrial Society on Mayushan Road in Yinxiang Port, when they were suddenly attacked by thugs hired by Takayoshi Tanaka who had a premeditated plan, and three of them were slightly injured.

These bastards who deliberately made trouble accused the workers of Sanyou Industrial Society of being injured, and rushed into the factory to frantically smash and burn Sanyou Industrial Society, injuring three Chinese patrol officers and workers.

The military of the island country, the consulate in Shanghai, and their government took advantage of this ugly farce to become a pretext for the Japanese special marines to suddenly launch an attack on the Zhabei front of our 19th Route Army on the 28th.

At dawn on the morning of the 29th, Major General Koichi Shiozawa ordered the Special Marine Corps, under the cover of more than 20 ironclad vehicles, to divide into five routes and launch the most ferocious attack on the forward position of the 156th Brigade of the 78th Division of the 19th Route Army in Zhabei Province.

At the same time, Japanese fighters quickly took off from the aircraft carrier 'Notoro' and carried out inhumane and indiscriminate bombardment of our positions in Zhabei and the vicinity of Nanshi, and the flames of war quickly spread throughout the urban area.

According to the 1st and 2nd Companies of the 4th Battalion of the 6th Regiment of the 156th Brigade of the Wengbu Army, which were stationed at the Tiantongan Station, after many tug-of-wars with the enemy during the night, it was less than two hours after recovering the first line of defense, and more than 300 Japanese troops, under the cover of four ironclad vehicles, launched a more fierce attack on our position at the Tiantongan Station.

Deputy battalion commander Song Yuanchao looked at Wang Feng and said: "Crazy Wang, the enemy did not take advantage of the attack at night, and in this daytime, under the cover of the powerful firepower of the four ironclad vehicles, if you want to hold the position, it is mysterious." ”

"In the face of a powerful enemy attack, we must not simply use the reckless tactic of 'soldiers to block and flood the earth', but we must adopt the false and the real, the real and the false, and take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to attack the enemy's weak points."

Zhao Changli, the deputy commander of the first company who acted as the company commander for less than an hour, seemed to have a lot of combat experience.

This is a close-range fight, facing a powerful enemy under the cover of ironclad vehicle fire, the number of weapons, equipment, and soldiers far exceeds mine, and it is a dream to be opportunistic to be able to repel the enemy's attack.

Seeing that Wang Feng did not answer, Deputy Battalion Commander Song frowned and stared at the enemy who launched an attack on the position, and couldn't help but shout anxiously: "Crazy, the enemy is now, you should give a word?" ”

"How? I would like to hear the opinion of Deputy Battalion Commander Song first. ”

When Wang Feng first arrived, he put forward his own battle plan in a preconceived idea, once he was not accepted, or he didn't feel the situation and said the wrong thing, how would he lead the troops in the future?

Besides, can cross-time and space warfare be compared with modern three-dimensional warfare?

"You bastard, you usually have a lot of ideas, why do you see so many little devils launching a powerful offensive under the cover of ironclad vehicles today, so why are you instigated?"

"One word: hit, two words: skillful, three words: hard." Wang Feng has already made preparations on how to fight this battle, and said the three words 'fight' simply and clearly, which have a deep meaning.

Deputy battalion commander Song Yuanchao didn't expect Wang Feng's performance to be so unsatisfactory today, so he simply stopped asking for advice and decisively ordered: "Order a company to hold the main position, and be sure to block the frontal attack of the enemy fifty meters in front of the position." ”

"Order the second company to coordinate the fire on the left and right flanks, and resolutely make it difficult for the attacking enemy to counterattack."

It is awesome to give such an order, two hundred and eighteen soldiers in two companies, and at night they engage in a tug-of-war with the enemy, and one-third of them are killed or incapacitated, and now less than 160 people can be shot and killed on the battlefield at full capacity.

In addition, the two companies had only two heavy machine guns, six light machine guns, Hanyang-made accounted for the majority, and the middle official accounted for a quarter, six box guns, and nine short guns of various kinds, although the ammunition was a little more than that of ordinary troops, but each soldier had only fifty rounds and four grenades.

In three battles for positions with the enemy at night, most of the ammunition in the hands of the fighters should consume more than half.

The attacking Japanese army, according to the normal establishment, each infantry squadron consists of three squadrons of 54-60 people and a squadron headquarters of about 20 people, a total of 180 to 200 people, and each infantry squad is equipped with two light machine guns and two grenadiers.

Each soldier was issued 120 rounds of ammunition and two grenades during wartime.

Now, under the cover of the powerful firepower of the four ironclad vehicles, the enemy who is frantically attacking has at least one squadron of troops.

With such excellent equipment and more than their own side, and strong combat ability, there are four ironclad vehicles to cover and cooperate in the battle, even if there is no cooperation of these four ironclad vehicles to attack, just by occupying a favorable position, it is not easy to block the devil with strong individual combat ability 50 meters away from the position?

This is not a battle at one energy level, and there is more than one bad luck.

The combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the 19th Route Army is really good, and it is not as useless as seeing the devil in the drama who collapsed with one blow and fled in a hurry. He did not stand up and charge, but threw away his armor from the fierce enemy.

Instead, they steadily attacked according to the enemy's situation, occupying the favorable terrain with the only two heavy machine guns, spraying powerful firepower, and sweeping towards the attacking enemy.

Four light machine guns were mounted on the left and right flanks, and in order to save bullets, they had not yet roared and spewed out tongues of fire.

The attacking enemy was covered by ironclad vehicles, and the commander adopted the tactics of gradual advance, although the advance was slow, but he was approaching the position step by step.

Song Yuanchao saw that the enemy was approaching the position, less than 70 meters away from the position, and if he went crazy to attack in a general wave, I am afraid that the position would be difficult to preserve.

Once the position is lost, it will be a terrible price to regain it.

He snatched the 38 big cover of a soldier next to him, shouting that he was going to lead the soldiers into the enemy group and fight to the death with the enemy. Just as he was about to jump out of the trench, Wang Feng dragged him into the trench.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Song, the enemy is outnumbered, and the three of us soldiers may not be able to parry a little devil, if we want to defeat the enemy, we must first blow up the ironclad car that the enemy relies on to cover the attack."

Song Changli, deputy company commander of the first company, took the initiative to ask for battle: "Deputy battalion commander Song, company commander Wang, I request to lead a death squad that blew up the enemy's ironclad car, even if it is lying under the ironclad car, with flesh and blood, it is necessary to block the ironclad car from continuing to attack our position." ”

"Don't be brutal, if you want to blow up the enemy's ironclad car, you can only use blasting methods, otherwise you will hit the stone with an egg and find your own death."

"Please rest assured, the company commander, I led the death squad with explosives strapped to my body, and I will definitely ......."
