Chapter 548: Bloody Battle of Poyang Lake: Battle for the Beach!

The battle in Douli Mountain was not as easy as Qi Rui's by the lake, but fortunately, the White Russian cavalry dug trenches, so that they could withstand the wild bombardment of the devils.

But Dubov also judged from the sound of gunfire in the back that the fighters in the first trench had lost at least a third.

"Captain! No, let them withdraw! Alenkov said,

"Let them hold on a little longer!" Dubov still has a good idea in his heart.

"Captain! Qi Rui, is this letting us die!? ”

"Don't talk nonsense! He's not like that! They chose us for this combat mission because they knew that we were good at positional warfare! Dubov said,

"There seems to be a little less team coming here! Because the Japanese are moving at least one brigade! Alenkov said,

"This is not to blame Qi Rui, he called just now and said that the Japanese came from the lake with a brigade of the Sixth Division, and Qi Rui and they have already eliminated almost one multi-wing! Qi Rui didn't know that it was the Ninth Division coming here! I didn't know that so many Japanese people recognized! Dubov said,

"But Liang Qing doesn't seem to have any intention of helping us?"

"It's not that he doesn't help, but trusts our combat power!" Dubov said,

"That's right! Qi Rui takes good care of our family and gives us money every month, and he has never lost us weapons and equipment! Don't talk nonsense! Alenkov also said,

While speaking, the first squad of the White Russian cavalry repelled another charge of the devils, because there were lakes on both sides to form a natural barrier, and the little devils could only attack from the front.

Knowing that there were not many people on the other side, but Fujii Sueyoshi ordered several strong attacks without success, and now he only hoped that Izuo Kazuo would quickly lead his wing to copy the rear road of the enemy position in front.

Kazuo Izao heard the gunfire from a distance, and received a telegram from Yoshiyoshi Akiyama telling him to march quickly to support, but when his wing crossed the lake and crossed the Mt. Douli, it was also attacked.

It was a cadre of brothers from Jiulong Village who attacked them, and they were responsible for ensuring the right flank of the White Russian cavalry, but they really waited for the devil army.

The battle here was also very fierce, and their combat effectiveness was still inferior to that of the White Russian cavalry, and they soon couldn't hold on to Liang Qing for help.

Liang Qing had no choice but to bring the five hundred Blood Wolf Guerrilla Brigade fighters who came with him to come to support, for this operation.

Qi Rui transferred all the fighters from each base back, and before they were assigned to Liang Qing, Tang Yu and Lei Zheng's five hundred blood wolf guerrilla brigade soldiers still followed them, and there were also Lei Zheng's five hundred blood wolf guerrilla brigade soldiers on Liang Qing's side, Liang Qing did not let them go with them, but stayed and waited to support the lone wolf brigade and the White Russian cavalry.

Liang Qing brought the rapid support of 500 blood wolf guerrilla brigade fighters, which allowed the Jiulongzhai side to resist the attack of Izuo Kazuo, and at this time, nearly half of the Jiulongzhai were killed and wounded, and there were about 300 people left, and even Tu Sanliang and Batu were injured and carried away.

Qi Rui was very nervous about the battle situation here, so he would send a telegram almost every ten minutes to ask, and when he heard that the fighting was so fierce here, he thought about it and sent Tang Yu with five hundred blood wolf guerrilla brigade fighters to Douli Mountain to support the White Russian cavalry.

Because the position chosen by the White Russian cavalry is very good, it is necessary to use this position to resist the devils for a while! Qi Rui was also in favor of Dubov's three buffer trenches, but Qi Rui thought that there were only more than 100 people in each trench, which was a bit short.

Tang Yu rushed over on horseback with five hundred soldiers of the Blood Wolf Guerrilla Brigade, Qi Rui took the Wolf Tooth Ghost Cavalry and the Black Dragon Village, as well as the Blood Wolf Special Combat Team and the Blood Wolf Guerrilla Brigade to continue to stay and wait for the devils.

Qi Rui concluded that the more fierce the fighting in the mountains in the pocket, the devils in Poyang Lake would still rush to the beach and land for operations.

Sure enough, less than an hour after Tang Yu and the others left, the devil ship was seen on the lake again, and this time the ship had already begun to shell far from the shore.

After the bombardment, no movement was found, and after consulting with Keisuke Fujie, the commander of the 16th Division, who had already come to support him, he asked Sasaki, the commander of the 30th Infantry Brigade of the 16th Division, to carry out the landing operation.

Sasaki Zhiyi is still very familiar with this person Qi Rui, the Jing'an Army that he dealt with in Rehe before was established by him, and the Nanjing Massacre is one of the culprits.

Now he is the brigade commander of the 3rd Division of the 16th Division, and is one of the officers who recorded the killer in Qi Rui's small notebook.

Sasaki Toichi did not directly participate in the landing operation, but entrusted the landing task to his subordinate Kengo Noda and his 33rd Wing.

Because of the previous lesson of Ushijima Man, Sasaki didn't dare to send his two wings to land together.

Kengo Noda personally jumped off the ship with the 33rd Wing and began to walk ashore, where the bodies of soldiers of the 6th Division were floating everywhere in the lake.

Kengo Noda and his 33rd Wing were not timid when they saw this scene, but wanted to hurry ashore to avenge the dead Imperial soldiers.

When their vanguard just arrived on the shore, all of a sudden it rained down again, Qi Rui had been waiting here for a long time, and after the devil's naval artillery bombardment, he immediately put back to the position, Qi Rui's task was to not let the devil land on the beach successfully!

As soon as they heard the gunshots, all the devil ships immediately opened fire to bombard Qi Rui's position on the shore, and Kengo Noda immediately ordered his wing to retreat, because now this situation is simply impossible to land on the beach, the opponent's fire is too fierce, and in a few seconds, more than a hundred soldiers in his vanguard have fallen.

Keisuke Fujie, Mitsuru Ushijima, Toichi Sasaki, and Tatsumi Kusaba, the commander of the 19th Brigade, were all on the same ship, and when they saw this scene, they immediately discussed.

Because they had to log here and rush to shore no matter what, only in this way could they cooperate with the Ninth Division as soon as possible.

"It seems that Qi Rui's main force is here!" Keisuke Fujie said,

"General Tengjiang! I heard that the fight on the side of the mountain is also very fierce! Qi Rui should be divided into two ways now! Ushijima said,

"There are only a few thousand Qi Rui in total! If the troops are divided into two routes, at most half of the troops on his side, we have almost a division of troops here! Keisuke Fujie said,

"General! Commander Gangcun has already called, saying that the 4th Flying Group has arrived and should be there soon! ”

"General! There are already ships to pick up the 9th and 20th wings of our brigade! Major General Kusaba Tatsushi said,

"So! We have to finish landing here! General Sasaki! It's better for your brigade to take the lead! Keisuke Fujie said,

Sasaki's brigade is very capable of fighting, which Ushijima Mitsuto admits, and Lieutenant General Fujie Keisuke has no opinion on arranging others in this way.

After receiving the order, Sasaki immediately gave an order to the commander of the 38th Wing, Sukegawa Shizuji, and asked him to take his wing to cooperate with Kengo Noda.
