The Japanese army stormed Luodian Town for three days and three nights, and Hu Lian relied on less than 1,500 people in his hands to hold out for three days and three nights.

"Iron pillars! Go, let me go to the south, and give me a hold off, and you won't let me let a devil in for 24 hours! ”

"Yes!"

Tie Zhu is already a company commander, under the bombardment of Japanese planes and artillery, Hu Lian's officers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties, the second day when reinforcements came, Tie Zhu became a platoon commander, and on the third day, Tie Zhu became a company commander, with less than 30 people!

Tie Zhu returned to the company's defense area and patted all the soldiers on the heads one by one: "Don't sleep, get up, get up, get up, get ready to fight!" ”

"Company commander, let's rest, I haven't closed my eyes for two days!" Zhou Wei looked at the iron pillar in a daze, waved his hand and lay on the ground motionless.

"Get up, I know you are all sleepy and tired, but we have rested and let the little devils pass, what will happen to the people of Shanghai behind us? Get up, give me up! ”

The pillars continued to scream one by one, and the soldiers staggered up from the ground after a minute or two of resting on the ground.

Tiezhu knew that they were tired, but he had to insist, after all, Shanghai was behind them, and if they retreated, the city behind them would immediately fall into the iron hooves of the Japanese.

The task of the iron pillar was to guard a small courtyard located in the southern part of the town, facing a small bridge, which was the only place for the Japanese army to attack Luodian.

With his own company, after simply arranging the defensive position, Tie Zhu found a commanding height and prepared to shoot, and now he has basically mastered the shooting essentials of the sniper rifle.

"Company commander, the little devil is here!"

After about half an hour, a group of Japanese soldiers appeared from the other side of the river, sneaking and slowly touching each other.

Tie Zhu looked at the Japanese soldiers outside through the sniper scope and waved his hand: "Don't shoot, let these little Japanese into the fight again, do you know?" ”

The soldiers nodded and lay motionless on the ground, slowly waiting for the Japanese soldiers to approach.

The Japanese walked across the small bridge step by step, and slowly approached the small building!

"Call me!"

Tiezhu was the first to shoot, hitting the Japanese officer in the head with an accurate shot, and then quickly killed a Japanese soldier with a single shot.

"Hit!" The shot at the iron pillar was a signal, and the soldiers under his hands immediately jumped to their feet, tilting their bullets at the Japanese soldiers in front of them.

The Japanese soldiers were caught off guard, and they were put into more than a dozen people in an instant, and the remaining Japanese soldiers were looking for a place to hide their figures, but Tie Zhu and others were condescending, and the Japanese soldiers had nowhere to hide, and the Japanese soldiers were crossing the bridge, and the bridge deck was very narrow, so that Japan could not deploy it at all.

Five minutes later, the Japanese retreated in a hurry, leaving behind dozens of corpses.

"Stop, stop, save bullets, don't shoot, save bullets! Clean up the battlefield! Clean up the battlefield! ”

When Tiezhu saw that the Japanese had faded, he immediately shouted loudly, and the soldiers around him also nodded and ran out of their hiding places and began to quickly clean up the battlefield.

In the days that followed, the Japanese began to attack even more frantically. Aircraft, tanks, artillery, and naval guns bombed Luodian again and again!

The 36th Division was finally transported by train to Shanghai, and all the officers and men immediately threw themselves into the battle in full swing before they could wash away the dust of the expedition. Together with the 87th and 88th Divisions, they swept away the enemy at Hongkou and Huishan Wharf. These 3 divisions are all the elite journey of the Central Army, known as the "instructor", and their combat effectiveness in the army is second to none. The 87th and 88th divisions also participated in the last "I. 28 "Songhu Anti-Japanese War." Speaking of these three divisions, it is impossible not to mention their division commanders. Wang Jingjiu, commander of the 87th Division, a student of the first phase of Huangpu, was known for his good command, and led his troops to defeat Feng Yuxiang's army many times during the Central Plains War in 1930, and became famous in one fell swoop. Participation in "I. 28 "Songhu Anti-Japanese War, then deputy commander of the 87th Division. Sun Yuanliang, commander of the 88th Division, graduated from the first phase of Huangpu and served as company, battalion, and regiment commander. In the 28th Anti-Japanese War, he served as the commander of the 259th Brigade of the 87th Division, and led his troops to successfully defeat the Japanese army and secure Miaohang Town. It was rated by international public opinion at that time as "the first battle in which the national army defeated the Japanese army". Song Xilian, commander of the 36th Division, is even more famous, graduated from the first phase of Whampoa, participated in the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army, and is not ambiguous in fighting Japanese devils. In the 28th Anti-Japanese War, he served as the commander of the 261st Brigade of the 87th Division, and won the name of "Eagle Dog General" for his ability to attack and fight well. All three of them had participated in the last Shanghai Anti-Japanese War, were in the same unit, and now they reunited with their old commander, General Zhang Zhizhong, on the beach (Zhang in "I. 28 "Commander of the 5th Army and Commander of the 87th Division in the Anti-Japanese War" cannot but be said to be the ingenious arrangement of fate.

Song Xilian set up the command post in a private house west of Hujiang University, and after inspecting the position, he called a meeting of the battalion and regiment commanders to plan the attack: the 211th Regiment was the right flank, Chen Ruihe's 106th Brigade was the left flank, Peng Jiguang's 108th Brigade was equipped with the 1st Company of Combat Vehicles and 1 Company of Defensive Artillery as the central team, and the 216th Regiment of the Central Team was the main attack. At 12 o'clock on the night of August 20, with the order of the commander-in-chief Zhang Zhizhong, the troops of the 36th Division launched a general attack on Huishan Wharf, and the 216th Regiment rushed forward along Beifeng Road and Fair Road. When entering the intersection of Tangshan Road and Huade Road, the enemy's firepower was more intensive, intertwined into a net, which lasted for more than one hour, and the regiment commander Hu Jiaji took the lead in rushing to the front, and the soldiers' morale was greatly boosted, and they rushed through Huade Road and Broadway Road in one go, approaching Huishan Wharf. The Japanese army could not support it and rushed to flee, and our army took advantage of the situation to pursue and rushed into the dock. However, it could not destroy the strong iron gate, in a hurry, the head of Hu Jiaji climbed the iron gate, and the soldiers followed him to climb over, at this time, the enemy on both sides of the dock fired artillery bombardment, and the troops suffered heavy casualties, Song Xilian urgently ordered the regiment to withdraw from the battle. In this battle, many officers and men died heroically, with more than 570 dead and wounded, and more than 400 Japanese soldiers also suffered casualties. The rest of the units fought fiercely all night to deal a blow to the enemy, but in the end, due to insufficient preparation for the attack and no weapons to win the attack, the enemy's fortifications were safe and undamaged, and the offensive was blocked.

The next day, Song Xilian brought in chariots to cover the infantry to attack Huishan Wharf again, and at dawn, they were blocked by the strong fire of the Japanese ships and retreated to the north side of Broadway. On the way to retreat, our tanks were attacked by enemy fire, and only two tank companies were destroyed and killed, and the whole army was annihilated. The reason for this, in addition to the enemy's artillery fire being too fierce, is that the troops have never carried out infantry and tank coordinated operations or drills before, and the infantry does not know how to provide cover for tanks at all, thinking that this black behemoth is invincible, so they let it rumble forward and become a live target for Japanese artillery fire.

On August 22, the two sides began to fight street by street, house by house, and the enemy attacked the position of the Fudan University library held by the 212th Regiment of the 36th Division several times, but we were all repulsed. During this period, the 36th Division once broke through the enemy's position and seized the Huishan Wharf, but because it was blocked by the enemy's naval fire, and because the enemy's plainclothes team and traitors took the opportunity to set fire and harass, the troops were isolated from the front and back, lost their command, and more than 200 officers and men were killed and wounded in the chaos, and were forced to withdraw to the original position on Tangshan Road. Yangshupu was on fire and burned for several days and nights. The attack on the Japanese Marine Corps Headquarters and the Gongda Yarn Mill was unsuccessful because the Chinese army did not come close to the blasting technique tactically, and the two sides once again formed a state of confrontation.

On August 22, Matsui Ishine led the 3rd and 11th Divisions of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, and 1 aircraft carrier battle group, after several days of sailing, on the evening of the same day, the mighty reinforcements to Shanghai, on the morning of the 23rd, the Japanese army defeated our river defense troops in the Lion Forest and Wusongkou, and forced the landing successfully, and a part drove into the Huangpu River to rescue the trapped Japanese army, and then the Japanese army equipped with heavy artillery and chariot troops continued to go ashore, and attacked and advanced to the line of Wusong, Baoshan, Luodian and Liuhe, and the situation on the Songhu battlefield suddenly reversed.

Zhang Zhizhong learned of the unfavorable news of the Japanese landing in the morning, because the telephone line between the headquarters and the various units had been blown up, and he was so anxious that he snatched a bicycle from the herald's hand, rode to the headquarters of the 87th Division in Jiangwan, and in spite of the sweating profusely, quickly deployed anti-landing operations, and ordered the 36th, 87th, and 88th Divisions, the 20th Independent Brigade, the Shanghai Security Corps, and the 2nd Regiment of the Teaching Corps to be under the unified command of Wang Jingjiu, commander of the 87th Division, and continue to besiege the enemy in front of Hongkou and Yangshupu. The 87th Division dispatched 1 brigade to support Wusong, and the 98th Division and the 11th Division rushed to the reinforcement of Baoshan, Yanghang, Liuhang, and Luodian, resolutely preventing the Japanese troops from coming ashore.

The Japanese heavy artillery continued to bombard, the planes hovered in the air to cooperate and wreak, the troops were almost unable to move, the commander of the 11th Division, Peng Shan, called: "Commander-in-chief, we were bombed so much that we couldn't lift our heads, how did the troops act?" Zhang Zhizhong was angry when he heard this: "I can't look up and have to go, I can go from Nanxiang to Jiangwan, can't you go from Jiangwan to Luodian?" You give me the troops to move immediately! Under the strict order, Peng Shan had no choice, and the 33rd Brigade braved the indiscriminate bombardment of enemy planes to launch a surprise attack on Luodian, taking advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold, defeating 500 Japanese troops and recovering Luodian in one fell swoop.

The Chinese army also added reinforcements at this time, and the newly formed 15th Army arrived. The group army, which was headed by Chen Cheng, vice minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs (and commander-in-chief of the former enemy in the Third Theater), brought together the absolute main force of several central armies, including the 18th Army (commander Luo Zhuoying), which Chen Cheng relied on, Hu Zongnan's 1st Army, known as the "First Army in the World", and Yu Jishi's 74th Army (later assigned. This army was the predecessor of the integrated 74th Division, which was later annihilated in the Battle of Menglianggu). Liu Heding's 39th Army was slightly less combat-effective. Chiang Kai-shek was willing to dig out his family foundation, and it cannot but be said that at this time he had the intention of playing with the Japanese. In order to seek a "peaceful" solution to the "conflict", Chiang Kai-shek began to seek a "peaceful" solution to the "conflict". Since the 18th century, the Japanese have been giving in and enduring and enduring again and again, but the Japanese do not know what to do and what they are pressing, and the rabbit is in a hurry and bites, not to mention that he is dignified Chairman Chiang? At 18 o'clock on August 24, Luo Zhuoying issued an offensive order to the troops under the 18th Army: the 98th Division (with 1 company of artillery) attacked and advanced from Liu Xing to the line of Baoshan-Lion Forest, and the main force remained on the left; The 11th Division (with 1 company of artillery) attacked and advanced from Luodian and its southwest area to the line of Yuepu, Shishilin and Shidongkou, and after capturing Yuepu and Shishilin, it attacked from Yuepu Town to Shidongkou and Chuanshakou with the main force; The 67th Division assisted Liu Shangzhi's 56th Division in defending the Liuhe position with one brigade, the main force controlled Yuluodian, and the other part advanced near Shenjiaqiao to cover the safety of the left side of the 11th Division.

In the early morning of August 25, the 201st Brigade of the 67th Division, under the leadership of the brigade commander Cai Bingyan, was ordered to launch an attack on more than 3,000 people of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army in Lujiazhai. Before long, the enemy brigade arrived, and the two armies came and went, and there was a big fight. The Japanese army was still heavy artillery and planes to open the way, and the infantry followed closely behind and charged, and our anti-Japanese officers and men resisted to the death, and for a time, the position was filled with gunsmoke, and the sound of guns and guns and shouts of killing resounded through the heavens and the earth. In the fierce battle, Brigade Commander Cai Bingyan issued a military order to the officers and soldiers of the brigade:

"The officers and men of this brigade swear to live and die with the position, those who advance live, those who retreat die, and they all obey it!"

In the afternoon, the whole brigade suffered casualties, the commander of the 402nd Regiment Li Weifan and most of the battalion, company, and platoon commanders were killed, Cai Bingyan was in a hurry to lead the only spy platoon and 1 battalion into the enemy formation, at this time, a bullet flew through the chest of Brigade Commander Cai, and immediately fell, before the sacrifice, he raised his hand and shouted: "Forward!" Advance! “

At 9 o'clock that night, Chiang Kai-shek, who was in Nanjing, heard that Luodian had been lost, and ordered Luo Zhuoying, commander of the 18th Army:

1. Luodian must be recovered tonight, and after Luodian is occupied, field fortifications will be built near Luodian, and stronghold fortifications will be built at Shuli Bridge, Nanchanggou, and Fengjiagou on the other hand;

2. The 11th and 98th Divisions were still attacking and advancing as intended;

3. The 14th Division left one regiment in Taicang, and one regiment to build fortifications at Fushankou, and the main force should advance to Jiading and Luodian tonight;

Fourth, the 61st Division rushed to build fortifications in the vicinity of Dachang and Yanghang.

On 27 August, the fighting intensified. That night, Luo Zhuoying mobilized troops from the line of Yuepu, Xinzhen, Luodian, and Pujiamiao to continue to attack the landing Japanese army, and the 11th Division, the main force of the Japanese army, responded with artillery, aircraft, and tanks. During the day, when the Japanese army was in full swing, planes, artillery, and tanks went into battle, turning the front of the Chinese army's position into a sea of fire, and the defenders had to withdraw from their positions. At night, it is a good time for our army to counterattack, taking advantage of the enemy's superior equipment to exert its power, and to drive out the enemy army in a fierce attack and regain the positions lost during the day. Japanese attacks often begin at dawn, preceded by aircraft bombing, then retreat, and then manned observation balloons are raised from their own positions to guide the navy and artillery to carry out secondary artillery attacks, and finally tanks cover the infantry advance. Our troops hid in the cotton fields during the day, cut off the road at night, laid mines and bundled grenades, set up obstacles and lay down on both sides, and when the enemy tanks came out and were blocked by the obstacles, they engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the infantry behind. This tactic is not to be regarded as clever, and it has repeatedly yielded miraculous results.

The battle for Luodian was always tugging at Chiang Kai-shek's heart, and he knew very well that although Luodian was a small town by the river, with an area of only 2 square kilometers, it was the intersection and hub of several highways leading to Baoshan, downtown Shanghai, Jiading and Songshan. So Chiang Kai-shek ordered several times: Luodian is an important relationship, and it must be conquered within a time limit, and all the soldiers have advanced and not retreated, and there is no enemy and no self, and if they do not succeed, they will become benevolent. Chen Chengxin vows: do whatever it takes to ensure the completion of the task.

The main forces of our army in the confrontation with the 11th Division of the enemy at Luodian were Peng Shan's 11th Division and Li Shusen's 67th Division. While inflicting heavy losses on the enemy, the officers and men of the two divisions suffered huge casualties, and the numbers reached an alarming level. One brigade commander and two regiment commanders were killed one after another, and countless officers at the battalion, company, and platoon levels were killed in battle, and General Li Shusen, commander of the 67th Division, was also seriously wounded and could not continue to command.

As the battle continued, the Japanese launched an even more fierce offensive after the arrival of the follow-up troops, and the shells were overwhelming, raining down on the defenders' positions, and the flames rose everywhere the artillery fire went. The Chinese defenders fought desperately, and when the bullets ran out, they rushed out of the trenches and fought with the enemy. Both sides suffered heavy casualties, and the Japanese had to pay a heavy price for every step forward.

On the 28th, after fierce battles with the enemy for several days, the Chinese troops holding Luodian suffered heavy casualties and the position was broken through by the enemy. On the 29th, Huang Wei led the 67th Division to recapture, but was bombarded by the enemy's strong firepower, and was forced to withdraw before it could stand firm, and Luodian finally fell into the hands of the enemy. Since then, the focus of the competition between the two sides has shifted to the periphery of Luodian, you attack and I defend, you defend and I attack, the intensity has increased unabated, and the stalemate battle has not stopped for a moment.

"Brother Tiezhu, what are you looking at?" Outside Luodian Town, Tie Zhu looked at Luodian, looking at the place where he had fought for so many days, and slowly walked out of the town step by step!

"Sooner or later, I'll take Luodian back! I swear! ”

In 1945, on April 7, Tie Zhu, who was already a regiment commander, was trapped on an unknown hill, and after leading his troops to repeatedly break through the siege, he was resurrected again and again, charged again and again, and finally did not want to see his comrades die on the battlefield, took out a gun and committed suicide, and never been able to resurrect!
