In the 13th Wing of the Japanese Army, Kunomura Momoyo had a smug smile on his face, and he felt indescribable pride and pride in his heart when he saw the smooth progress of each unit.

Although the Okamoto Brigade and the Araki Brigade were currently able to fight only six squadrons of infantry, they were able to contain the four infantry battalions that had prepared the 1st Regiment to cross the river with the assistance of artillery.

Even if the number of the Chinese troops was not clear to Kunomura Momoyo, from the combat effectiveness of the Chinese troops on the north bank of the Zhujiachuan River, Kunomura Momoyo knew that the Chinese troops crossing the river must be the first regiment in reserve.

Especially after receiving a report from Saito's brigade that they had defeated more than 1,000 troops in China, he was even more sure that there were other Chinese troops on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, and on the north bank of the Zhujiachuan River were the troops of the First Reserve Regiment.

Kunomura Momoyo made the right bet this time, he invested most of the Japanese puppet army to fight on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, and he felt that he could win this time.

First use an infantry brigade, a cavalry wing, and three Mongolian cavalry divisions to annihilate or defeat the troops on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, and then encircle and annihilate the troops of the first regiment on the north bank.

Now that Kunomura is implementing this strategy step by step, he believes that he will soon be able to achieve the honor of annihilating thousands of Chinese troops.

This honor will allow him to get the rank of major general, and even the calm Kunomura Momoyo can't help but speed up his heartbeat at this time.

"The detachment leader, Captain Okamoto, reported that his brigade headquarters had been stationed in Zhangjiashan, and he would command the fourth and third squadrons to quickly capture Hewan Village. Captain Okamoto asked for support from the artillery brigade, and he would begin a storming of the village of Riverbend after two o'clock. At this time, a Japanese second lieutenant came to Kunomura Momoyo and reported.

After hearing the report of the Japanese second lieutenant, Kunomura Momoyo showed a satisfied smile on his face, and he nodded directly and agreed.

"Contact the Field Artillery Brigade to carry out artillery bombardment of Hewan Village before two o'clock to support the operation of the Okamoto Brigade." Kunomura Momoyo immediately gave the order.

The Japanese second lieutenant saluted Momoyo Kunomura and then walked outside.

At this time, it was more than one o'clock in the afternoon, and the fighting on the north bank of the Zhujiachuan River had completely stopped, and both China and Japan were having lunch.

But the troops of the 3rd and 4th Battalions of the Reserve 1st Regiment had had a hasty lunch, and their troops were quickly assembled.

Sun Ziyuan, who crossed the river on foot, had already come to the north bank of the Zhujiachuan River, and he came directly to Qin Xianliang's third battalion, and set up a temporary command post here.

After sending heralds to relay the order to the four battalions of the 1st Reserve Regiment, Sun Ziyuan began to give the order to attack.

Units of the 3rd and 4th Battalions began operations, with the two battalions advancing westwards from the north and south ends of the position, respectively.

As the 3rd Battalion launched a counteroffensive against the villages occupied by the Japanese under the leadership of Qin Xianliang, Sun Ziyuan began to relocate the command post to the 1st Battalion.

Yangjia Village, which is 1,200 meters away from Hewan Village, is stationed here an infantry squad of the Japanese army, responsible for guarding the third battalion, and its number is the first squadron of the third squadron of the Okamoto brigade.

The devil soldiers had already been informed by the captain Hideaki Okamoto that they knew that they would launch a fierce attack on Hewan Village at two o'clock in the afternoon, and at this time the devil soldiers were having lunch to replenish their strength.

"The 10th Company, quickly capture the village in front, the 12th Company covers, and the 9th and 11th Companies make a detour from both sides to cut off the Japanese reinforcements to the village."

Qin Xianliang held the binoculars and looked at Yangjia Village, and then he gave the battle order, and as Qin Xianliang's order began to be issued, the soldiers began to act.

THE 12TH COMPANY IS THE THIRD BATTALION MACHINE GUN COMPANY, AT THIS TIME THE THIRD BATTALION MACHINE GUN COMPANY SUFFERED SERIOUS LOSSES, ONE OF THE THREE 82MM MORTARS WAS KNOCKED OUT, AND TWO OF THE THREE TYPE 92 HEAVY MACHINE GUNS WERE ALSO KNOCKED OUT.

Xue Yue can be said to be a veteran oil, the Japanese army's twelve field guns launched an artillery bombardment of Hewan Village before, but the 82MM mortar mastered by Xue Yue did not suffer any losses, and the soldiers of the third squad did not suffer any casualties, at this time Xue Yu had already set up the 82MM mortar in a crater, he quietly showed his head, holding a telescope to observe ahead.

More than 100 fighters of the 10th company began to advance to the front, with each platoon alternately covering each other, and light machine guns and grenadiers taking cover in the rear.

With a "snap", the sound of 38-type rifle shooting sounded, and a ghost soldier standing guard at the entrance of the village did not know what was happening, and he was shot through the head by a bullet.

The devil soldiers fell to the ground, and the sound of gunfire alarmed the ghost soldiers in the village, and a light machine gun deployed at the entrance of the village began to fire.

The light machine gun was hiding inside the house, and the two fighters who rushed to the front were caught off guard, and they were hit by the bullets fired by the light machine gun, and their bodies immediately fell to the ground.

"At nine o'clock, at a distance of seven hundred meters, Japanese light machine guns, loaded with explosive shells." Xue Yu immediately gave an order.

The gunners of the third squad immediately began to adjust the mortar firing angle, the muzzle of the black hole was aimed at the sky, a blasting shell was stuffed into the barrel, and the gunners immediately began to fire.

With a "pass", the blasting bullet was fired, and the blasting bullet landed accurately on the house, which collapsed, and the light machine gun firing stopped.

Xue Yu gave a thumbs up to the fighters behind him, and he continued to hold the binoculars to observe, looking for new targets.

After the first squad stationed in Yangjia Village heard the gunshots, they began to enter a combat state, and more than 30 devil soldiers relied on civilian houses to resist.

It's just that their light machine guns and grenadiers are often shot a few times before they are knocked out by mortars, and with the only grenadiers and light machine guns they have are knocked out, the devil soldiers can only rely on rifles to shoot, but even so, the ghost soldiers still brought seven soldiers to the tenth company.

At 1:40 p.m., the 3rd Battalion captured Yangjia Village, annihilating 35 Japanese troops stationed in the village, and the 10th Company of the main attack paid the price of 15 casualties, of which 9 were killed.

After conquering Yangjia Village, Qin Xianliang immediately commanded the troops to continue to advance forward, and when it was two o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Xianliang's third battalion captured Quanjiaping Village, and they annihilated seventy-three people from the third squadron of the Japanese Okamoto brigade, directly posing a threat to Zhangjiashan, where the Okamoto brigade headquarters was located, and although the fourth battalion troops were progressing slowly, they still advanced two thousand meters to the front, annihilating more than 50 Japanese troops and pinning down the strength of Araki's brigade.

After Sun Ziyuan received a report from the front, he began to order the 3rd and 4th Battalions to stop the attack, while Yin Jin's 1st Battalion and Fu Tao's 2nd Battalion began to attack and advance.
