Receiving this blow, the Japanese 13th Division immediately stopped crossing the river and shrank its forces away from the north bank of Fumohama.

The Japanese troops left very suddenly, and very quickly, and soon not a single Japanese soldier could be seen on the north bank of the river in the Jiang family's house. Only the blood-stained water in the river, the corpses of Japanese soldiers floating everywhere, and some broken bamboo rafts and kayaks remained, indicating how fierce the battle had just been.

The battle was suddenly interrupted, and the teaching corps in charge of defense was very uncomfortable, and the soldiers stared at each other on the position, not knowing what the little devils were doing, and they did not dare to be careless. After waiting for a while, and finding that there was no response from the other side, some bored soldiers set up their guns and began to replenish their guns one by one at the wounded Japanese soldiers in the river.

Half an hour later, the news of the retreat of the Japanese army came from the other side of the river, and everyone believed that the Japanese army had really retreated, and the soldiers on the position completely relaxed. Zhou Zhenqiang, deputy captain of the teaching corps, and Qiu Qingquan came to find Bai Fei, and the two sides met, Qiu Qingquan said excitedly: "Commander Bai, thanks to you, the Japanese army probably already knows that your national protector army is coming to help, and now that it has completely retreated, it is estimated that it will not make up its mind to cross the river from here for a while and a half." “

Zhou Zhenqiang also said happily: "Your air defense weapons are simply amazing, you can hit so high and so far, 5 planes were shot down in the blink of an eye, without the help of the planes, the little devil can't retreat, this time I really want to thank you." ”

Bai Fei waved his hand modestly and asked, "How about the casualties of the troops?" ”

Zhou Zhenqiang sighed: "Our brigade has now suffered about 1,000 casualties, and it seems that this time when General Gui comes back from the UK, he will have to scold me to death." Gui Yongqing, the head of the teaching corps, is now in the United Kingdom to attend the coronation of the Queen, which is why he said so.

When it came to casualties, everyone's interest was not so high, and after chatting a few words, they dispersed to deal with the aftermath.

In the afternoon of the same day, the teaching corps received the order to retreat to the rear to rest, before leaving, Zhou Zhenqiang and Qiu Qingquan said goodbye to Bai Fei, and after some thanks, Zhou Zhenqiang and Qiu Qingquan did not wait for the arrival of the defense troops, and left Shanghai with the team and returned to Nanjing.

A few hours later, the 517th Brigade of the 173rd Division of the 48th Army of the 21st Group Army of the Gui Army came to take over the defense, led by Zhou Yuan, deputy commander of the 173rd Division and commander of the 517th Brigade.

After Bai Fei met with him and greeted him, he told him in detail about the battle situation, Zhou Yuan smiled after hearing it: "As soon as Brother Bai came, the Japanese army retreated, obviously afraid of your national protectors, I think they don't dare to act rashly for the time being, speaking of which, we picked up a bargain this time..."

Bai Fei chatted and laughed with him for a few words, and said: "Although the Japanese army has temporarily retreated, when will it come back, Brigade Commander Zhou still can't take it lightly." ”

Zhou Yuan said: "That's nature. This is the first defensive task of our 517th Brigade to participate in the battle in Shanghai, if the Japanese army does not come, if they dare to attack, even if their ships are strong and their guns are sharp, my Bagui Nan will never take half a step back, and they will definitely be told that there will be no return. “

……

In the next two days, the shadow of half of the Japanese soldiers was still not visible on the north bank of the Huayuan Bridge and a section of the river in Jiang's house. However, the bad news came one after another. First of all, Yamamuro Takemune's 11th Division joined the Japanese 6th Division and once again broke through the defense line built by the 8th, 59th, and 61st Divisions on the south bank of the Lianqi River. After the Japanese army crossed the Lianqi River, they began to penetrate directly towards Guangfu and Chenjiaxing. At the same time, the 9th Division of the Japanese Army and the 13th and 101st Divisions of the 13th and 101st Divisions that were blocked from crossing the river also began to launch a fierce attack on the Nationalist defense line on the west side of the Hutai Highway.

Chen Cheng and others immediately ordered the 20th Army and the 26th Division of the 43rd Army led by Yang Sen of the Sichuan Army, Liao Lei's 21st Group Army and the three temporarily organized brigades to the front line of Duqiaotou, Yaotangzhai, Jinjiadian, and the west side of Hutai Road to deploy and resist respectively.

However, that's not the worst news. At 10 p.m., more than 20,000 people, including the Japanese Shigetsu Detachment and the 1st Brigade of the puppet Jing'an Army, the puppet Yuzhishan Brigade, and the puppet Li Chunshan Brigade, suddenly launched a fierce attack from Zhang Huabang along the Yixian Road in the direction of Jiangwan, while the Japanese marines in the Hongkou and Yangpu areas also launched attacks on Fudan University and the Gongda Yarn Mill. Although the 51st Division and the first detachment of the Tax Police Regiment defending the Jiangwan area resisted vigorously, the Japanese attacked in front and rear, and with the cooperation of warships and artillery in the Huangpu River, the Chinese defenders suffered heavy casualties and the situation was precarious.

The tax police corps is the heart of Finance Minister Song Ziwen, how dare Chen Cheng, Zhu Shaoliang and others offend this God of Wealth? After learning of the situation, he immediately called Bai Fei, hoping to let the Protector Army go to relieve the siege.

After receiving the information, Bai Fei didn't say a word and immediately led the troops there. When the position to the east of Jiangwan was rushed, a wave of Japanese attacks had just been repulsed here, and the two sides were temporarily in a truce. I saw that the position was full of large and small pits that had been bombed by artillery, and the stumps and broken arms were faintly visible, and groups of wounded soldiers were loaded on stretchers and carried down, while the uninjured soldiers were all repairing their positions, and the battlefield was filled with gunsmoke everywhere, and the atmosphere was tense and depressing.

Bai Fei and others were invited into the former enemy command post of the 51st Division, where he met with Wang Yaowu, commander of the 51st Division, Li Tianxia, commander of the 153rd Brigade, and Zhang Lingfu, commander of the 305th Regiment of the 153rd Brigade, stationed here.

Bai Fei, the famous anti-Japanese general Zhang Lingfu, has long been like thunder, and he knows a lot about the anecdote of his shooting his wife.

Several people on both sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Wang Yaowu, commander of the 51st Division, gave Bai Fei a brief introduction to the battle situation.

Bai Fei immediately picked up the binoculars and looked out through a lookout window in the command post, only to see that thousands of miles in front of the position, groups of soldiers wearing the same uniforms as the national army, under the cover of more than 30 Japanese tanks, were attacking this side.

Bai Fei frowned and asked Wang Yaowu, the commander of the 51st Division, "Commander Wang, what's going on, is there someone in Shanghai who led the team to join the Japanese?" ”

"There are people who have taken refuge with the Japanese, but not in Shanghai." Wang Yaowu nodded and said: "This question is about to tell you, we have just captured a few prisoners to figure it out: these people wearing the same military uniforms as us in front of the position were actually part of the Northeast Army in the past, but later they took refuge in the Japanese as lackeys, and now they are the army of the puppet Manchukuo." The 1st Brigade of the Jing'an Army, the puppet Yuzhishan Brigade, and the puppet Li Chunshan Brigade all belong to this list. Including the Shigeto detachment, the main force of the Japanese army that attacked this time, most of them were also Taiwanese. “

When Wang Yaowu said this, he sighed and said: "Chinese help foreigners invade their own country, Chinese beat Chinese, think about it seriously, it is really hateful, pathetic, and lamentable!" ”

Bai Fei suddenly realized, and then remembered that he had read a book before, which said that it was not only the Japanese who participated in the Nanjing Massacre, but also Taiwanese, Koreans, and the former Northeast Army. At the time, I thought that the author had written it wrong, but now combined with the things in front of me, I understand it at once.

He snorted coldly with a cold face and scolded: "Since the day these people defected to the Japanese, they are no longer Chinese!" Damn, I hate traitors the most, good people don't do it, they have to be dogs, in this case, I will fulfill you, die for your master! ”

After speaking, he immediately made a gesture to Wu Cannon, who was standing not far away, and said, "Company Commander Wu, it's time to do business!" ”

Wu Cannon immediately straightened his waist and saluted, and walked out quickly.

A moment later, the artillery unit opened fire, and fifty or sixty rocket launchers were fired at the same time, and the Japanese tanks that were showing off their might on the battlefield were immediately shattered. The powerful attack firepower startled everyone in the 51st Division in the command room, especially Zhang Lingfu, whose frightened face changed. Bai Fei thought that he was unhappy when he saw that he was making his own decisions, so he said: "I'm sorry, Commander Zhang, I made the decision to let my brothers in the National Protector Army open fire without consulting you, I hope don't mind." ”

Zhang Lingfu hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, I didn't mean that, I heard that your Protector Army is sharply equipped and has strong firepower, but I didn't expect that more than 30 tanks would be so vulnerable in your hands, which shocked me too much." ”

Bai Fei smiled: "I see, then you have to be mentally prepared later." ”

When the others heard Bai Fei say this, they picked up their binoculars one after another, and lay down at the command post to look at the battlefield.

In front of the position, the 1st Brigade of the Jing'an Army of the puppet Manchukuo, whose tanks had been bombed, were like headless flies, and they did not know whether to retreat or advance. If you are smarter, you should immediately lie on the ground or hide behind the wreckage of the tank. And those who were stunned in place, without the cover of tanks, naturally became the humanoid targets of the soldiers of the national army on the position of the 51st Division, and people were constantly killed for a while.

Seeing this, some Japanese soldiers who were stationed in the puppet army as commanders at all levels immediately organized the team to retreat, but at this moment, a burst of artillery bombardment from the mountains and a tsunami came, and suddenly, the 1st Brigade of the puppet Jing'an Army in front of the position was wiped out, and one by one thick 150mm high-explosive grenades fell like hail in the puppet army crowd, and people were constantly blown up and minced flesh flew sideways, and the people with broken limbs did not know how many, and the wailing and screaming were endless. In order to avoid the bombs, the puppet soldiers who were lucky enough not to die did not even distinguish between the south, the south, the west, and the northwest, and only cared about running around with their heads in their hands, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

Seeing this, Wang Yaowu, the commander of the 51st Division, saw that his eyes lit up, and when he saw that the opportunity could not be missed, he immediately ordered his troops to blow the trumpet of the charge and began to pursue the routed troops, wanting to recover the lost ground. It turned out that the previous position of the 51st Division was near the first line of Yinhang Road, and later under the attack of Japanese warships and Japanese puppet troops, it was forced to abandon its position and move to the vicinity of Sanmen Road and Minfu Road.

After the trumpet sounded, the defenders of the 51st Division immediately rushed to the Japanese puppet army in front of the position like a lion descending the mountain, although the artillery unit of the Protector Army had stopped shelling, but the puppet army was defeated like a mountain, and the 1st Brigade of the Japanese puppet Jing'an Army was bombed without fighting spirit, and only cared about fleeing for its life like a rabbit, and immediately left the puppet Yuzhishan Brigade responsible for coordinated offensive operations behind. Seeing that the flank friendly troops had run, the pseudo-Yu Zhishan Brigade immediately contracted its formation and turned around to follow, but it was soon caught up by Zhou Zhidao's headquarters of the 151st Brigade of the 51st Division behind him.

However, at this moment, several Japanese planes suddenly flew into the sky in the distance, and the two fighters that flew faster and higher quickly flew over the battlefield, and after they dived, after reducing their altitude, they began to use airborne machine guns to frantically strafe the soldiers of the national army who were chasing the Japanese puppet army, and the bullets fired from the planes were like red-hot chains, and they roared past, and nearly 100 soldiers of the national army were immediately strangled to death.

When Wang Yaowu and the others in the command post saw this scene, their hearts immediately hung in the air.
