Bai Fei didn't know that because of his merits and rewards, he caused a battle between the two giants of the Nanjing Staff Headquarters, and as a party, he was leading the Protector Army to clear the Japanese defenders in the Gongda Yarn Factory at the moment.

At the beginning of the war in Shanghai, it and the Marine Corps Headquarters in Hongkou became the main military base of the Japanese army, and the Chinese and Japanese armies exchanged fire here many times. However, the Japanese army, with its strong fortifications and the artillery support provided by the ships on the Huangpu River waterway, always kept the Chinese army out of the door and could not enter an inch.

At the beginning of the 3rd Regiment of the Tax Police stationed here, it launched several attacks on the Gongda Yarn Factory. After the attack was fruitless, the 3rd Regiment of the Tax Police deployed its troops north of Zhoujiazui Road, and faced the Japanese defenders of the Gongda Yarn Factory across the road, and no one could help anyone. This time, the Shigeto detachment led the attack, and the defenders here had joined forces with some marines from Yangpu to attack the tax police regiment, and even broke through the national defense line on Zhoujiazui Road for a time.

Later, the reinforcements of the Protector Army arrived and quickly defeated the Shigeto detachment, especially after the sinking of two Japanese gunboats on the nearby river, the Japanese troops stationed in the Gongda Yarn Mill retracted back into the mill.

After Bai Fei heard about this, he said to Tian Zhongda, the battalion commander of the 3rd Regiment of the Tax Police: "Battalion Commander Tian, the Japanese army of the Gongda Yarn Factory will be handed over to our Protector Army to deal with." ”

Tian Zhongda said: "Commander Bai, don't underestimate these little devils, they have built a lot of permanent fortifications in the factory, and we have attacked several times to no avail. ”

Bai Fei said, "I wrote down your reminder. Don't worry, I know what to do. ”

After speaking, he took Wang Weiguo's 1st Company and Xu Changsheng's 3rd Company, as well as the special combat team and others, and drove towards the Gongda Yarn Factory.

Bai Fei took people across Zhoujiazui Road, and from a distance, there was a mess of rubble in front of the Gongda Yarn Factory, most of the houses in the factory were destroyed by the war, and only a few dilapidated warehouses remained, crumbling and towering inside.

About 200 meters in front of the Gongda Yarn Mill, Bai Fei asked the team to stop. Li Hu, who was exploring the way ahead, came over with a few brothers and said: "Tuanza, there are really a lot of bunkers and fortifications built by the Japanese army here, and there are no less than 30 outside the Guanggong Yarn Factory, and I don't know how many of them are..."

Bai Fei raised his binoculars and looked ahead, and sure enough, he saw that every 50 to 100 meters outside the Gongda Yarn Factory there was a circular bunker made of cement, with a diameter of three or four meters and a height of less than two meters, and there were shooting lookouts all around. These forts are crisscrossed together, and the surrounding vision is relatively wide, and there are almost no dead spots when attacking, so it is no wonder that there have been many attacks by soldiers of the national army in the past.

Wang Weiguo suggested on the side: "There are so many pillboxes, if you want to attack them, I am afraid that you will suffer heavy losses, so it is better to try it with a bazooka." ”

Bai Fei nodded and said, "That's what I mean. Let's take a shot first and see how strong these bunkers are. ”

Wang Weiguo immediately beckoned, and a Protector soldier holding an RPG came over next to him, Bai Fei took an RPG from his hand, loaded it with an armor-piercing bullet, and aimed at a pillbox 200 meters away to pull the trigger.

The rocket was immediately launched and hit the bunker, and after an explosion, the bunker was immediately blown to the bottom, and all the Japanese troops inside were blown into the sky.

Bai Fei said with a smile: "The Japanese bunker is nothing more than that, inform the brothers that as long as they see a suspected Japanese bunker, they will be greeted with rockets." ”

"Yes!"

Wang Weiguo, Xu Changsheng and Li Hu soon led their men to attack the Gongda Yarn Factory on three sides. Although the Japanese army's concrete-built fortress is resistant to ordinary bombs and shells, it is no different from tofu scum under the blow of RPG armor-piercing high-explosive shells. After the battle began, the bunkers on the periphery of the Gongda Yarn Mill were uprooted one by one, and the Protector Army soon invaded the inside of the mill.

At this time, the Japanese troops inside the mill learned that the outer bunkers were destroyed one after another, and knew that the Chinese army had sharp weapons to attack fortifications, so they did not dare to stay in the bunkers and wait for death, so they ran out of the fortifications one after another, and relied on the rubble and ruins of the mill in groups to counterattack.

As a result, the two sides turned from positional warfare to street fighting, and although the chaotic counterattacks of the Japanese troops seemed to be very disorganized, they ran everywhere, which caused a lot of trouble for the annihilation strike of the Protector Army, and the speed of the attack slowed down, far less fast and effective than the previous attack on the pillboxes.

In order to avoid the death and injury of the soldiers, Bai Fei slowed down the advance speed and let the sniper team cooperate with the special combat team, and the street fighting was the most suitable battle for them.

The two sides spent so much that it was not until about 3 o'clock in the afternoon that the remnants of the Japanese army in the Gongda Yarn Factory were finally cleared.

After getting the news, Bai Fei was relieved and was about to gather the team to withdraw from the Gongda Yarn Factory, when a special combat team member ran to him and saluted and said, "Tuanzao, our captain and Company Commander Wang have found something and want you to take a look." ”

Bai Fei immediately asked him to lead the way and followed him into a warehouse to the east of the yarn factory. The warehouse was dilapidated, leaking from all sides under the ravages of the war, and only the roof and a few steel columns were left to support it. A large amount of cloth was piled up in some places around the warehouse, and in the middle, there was a large steel plate five meters square on the ground, which had been lifted to the side, and a wide staircase under the steel plate was found to extend to the ground.

Bai Fei's eyes lit up, and he walked over quickly, and at this time, Wang Weiguo, Li Hu, and Xu Changsheng were walking up the stairs. When the two sides met, Li Hu immediately said: "Tuanzao, come and see, the little devil has hidden a lot of arms underneath." ”

Bai Fei nodded, followed them down the stairs, and saw that below was a basement of about 1,000 square meters, which was densely packed with many wooden boxes, several boxes were opened, and the boxes contained 38 rifles wrapped in oiled paper.

Wang Weiguo introduced: "I just estimated with Company Commander Xu that the ammunition here is enough to arm two divisions, the front of these are all 38 rifles, and there are some crooked handles, 92 heavy machine guns and some grenadiers in the back, and then there are all kinds of ammunition in the back, but there is no artillery." ”

Bai Fei casually picked up a gun and fiddled with it a few times, and said: "I estimate that the Japanese have been planning to capture Shanghai for a long time, you look at the date on the seals of these boxes, Showa 8, converted into the Gregorian calendar is 1933." As early as 33 years, these arms were secretly transported here. ”

Wang Weiguo nodded and said: "I agree with this view, it must be after the Japanese army lost the 128th Shanghai Battle that they secretly transported these arms from the country, it seems that they want to prepare for the future war." ”

Xu Changsheng also said: "Actually, this is not surprising, it has not been a day or two that the Japanese want to invade and occupy our China, I believe that in addition to here, there must be other places in Shanghai that secretly hide Japanese arms." “

Li Hu scolded: "The little devil is a thief, this time it's good, it's cheaper for us." ”

Bai Fei himself has more advanced weapons, and he is not very interested in these arms, and he is about to go out, but he hears Xu Changsheng say: "Tuanzao, there is a small door on the wall over there, but it is sealed and can't be opened, do you want to go and have a look?" “

And another door? Bai Fei became curious, followed them over, and sure enough, he saw a small gray-black metal door on the wall.

This door is made of steel throughout, and the door side and the door frame are tightly closed, and if you look closely, it turns out that the position of the door side is directly welded to the door frame.
