The telegram sent by Yan Laoxi during the day was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the 196 Brigade, which was already on the verge of annihilation. Even Jiang Yuzhen, who was originally determined to die www.biquge.info has a strong will to survive.

The tall Jiang Yuzhen's neck was full of grenades, and Jiang Yuzhen was there wherever the position was broken through by the Japanese army, and under his leadership, the already crumbling defense line was stabilized for a while, and the attacking Japanese army was extremely embarrassed.

Although the 196th Brigade lost 70% of its casualties, the Japanese were also very tired, especially since they belonged to the attacking side, and under the decisive counterattack of the 196th Brigade, the casualties were as many as 2,000.

Seiichiro Shinohara, who couldn't wait any longer, the commander of the Itagaki Division of the Fifth Division had already called and asked: Why did the 15th Brigade not take Harada after 10 days of fighting?

Although the commander of the Itagaki Division only sent a message to question, Shinohara Joichiro knew that if he didn't take Harahira again, what was waiting for him would no longer be a question, but a dismissal order.

Thinking of this, Shinohara Seiichiro no longer had a cat-and-mouse play, but pushed the Engineer Federation and the Artillery Wing all onto the battlefield, and he wanted to crush the hateful 196 Brigade to pieces with the strength of Mount Tai.

"Boom!"

The roar of artillery fire did not stop, and under the strict orders of Seiichiro Shinohara, the Japanese army bombarded the position of the 196th Brigade like clockwork, vowing to wipe out the 196th Brigade in one fell swoop tonight.

"Commander Li Yunqiang, are the troops ready?" Zhang Cheng saw that the 15th Brigade had entered a state of war, and knowing that the opportunity could not be lost, he immediately pulled out the telegram to confirm whether the 1st Regiment had entered the combat position.

"Report to the division commander, a regiment is ready to attack at any time," Li Yunqiang replied on the phone.

"Okay, order the attack!" Zhang Cheng didn't talk nonsense, and immediately ordered a group to attack.

At this time, the Japanese army's shelling of the 196th Brigade had just ended, and in the smoke of gunpowder, thousands of devils bent their waists towards the position of the 196th Brigade.

About 1,300 meters away from the position of the 196th Brigade, the gunfire on both sides suddenly intensified, but the Japanese clearly found that the firepower of the 196th Brigade had begun to thin out, and it was obvious that the previous shelling still brought a lot of casualties to the 196th Brigade.

"Yo Xi, the resistance of the 196 Brigade has been greatly weakened, and the fighting can be ended before dawn." Seiichiro Shinohara, put down his binoculars and said to the staff officer beside him.

"Hay! However, Your Excellency Brigade Commander, it is really unexpected that the 196th Brigade will put up such fierce resistance to our Imperial Japanese Army, and if all the troops of the Chinese Army resist as fiercely as the 196th Brigade, then our plan of destroying the violent branch in three months will probably not be completed. ”

Shinohara's Seiichiro froze for a moment when he heard this, then showed a thoughtful look, and then nodded and said, "Yo Xi, Matsui-kun's words are very reasonable. After the 196th Brigade is annihilated, you must order you to go down and cut off the heads of the fallen officers and soldiers of the 196th Brigade and build a mountain of human heads. ”

"Hay! The brigade commander is wise and wise! ”

Just when Shinohara Seiichiro was discussing the construction of the heads of the Chinese army into a Beijing temple to show the public, Li Yunqiang outside the original flat city shouted: "All the attention of the group, prepare to charge, target, Yuan Ping, kill me!" ”

"Kill!"

With Li Yunqiang's order, a regiment of more than 1,000 officers and soldiers shot at the head with light machine guns, and Type 37 semi-automatic rifles followed, sweeping towards Yuanping City like a tide.

At this time, Seiichiro Shinohara, who was behind the Japanese attack force, suddenly felt a shock in his heart, and seemed to hear a sound like "rustle" in his ears, and he asked suspiciously: "Matsui-kun, what is the sound outside the city?" It seems to be the work of a tornado. ”

Matsui Shaozo did not doubt that he was there, and only replied, "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, you are too worried!" You see, how brilliant the stars are tonight, there is no wind at all, how can there be a tornado? ”

Seiichiro Shinohara suddenly said angrily; "Something is wrong, that loud 'rustling' sound is coming from outside the city. Yaga! It won't be an enemy attack, I know a little Chinese, they are not shouting 'sand' but shouting 'kill', oops, the voice is getting closer and closer to us! ”

Matsui Shaosa also heard it at this time, the back of the Japanese army was being attacked by the enemy, and he shouted in horror: "Eight Ge Yalu!" Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, it's the troops of China who are sneaking up on us! ”

"Boom!"

Before Shinohara could react, a mortar shell exploded next to him on the spot, seriously injuring him, and a piece of shrapnel stabbed into Shinohara's abdomen, leaving his intestines out.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander!"

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander!"

"Doctor, come doctor!"

With Shinohara Seiichiro seriously injured, the brigade headquarters was in chaos.

Dada......

Under Li Yunqiang's lead in the charge, the soldiers of the first regiment took the lead in entering Yuanping City, all kinds of automatic firearms opened fire together, and the mortars brought over also showed great might.

Wang Paotun, commander of the artillery company, operated the cannon with his hands, and hit the headquarters of the Japanese brigade and regiment thousands of kilometers away with one shot.

As mortars and grenades bombarded the Japanese army one after another, the light machine guns and Type 37 guns that hit the head opened fire one after another, and the Japanese troops who were attacked from behind were instantly stunned!

"Yaga, enemy attack! Organize a counterattack! ”

After hearing so many gunshots behind him, the commander of the 16th Wing, Goto Juro Osa, finally reacted and immediately led the Japanese army to fight back!

But the instructor occupies the first-mover advantage, in order to be prepared to fight unprepared, the first time to burst out the most intense firepower, many Japanese troops were caught off guard at all, one second was still attacking the 196 brigade, the next second was the Eighth Route Army to explode chrysanthemums, this is sour, think about it is also drunk.

The instructor only launched the first wave of attacks, and the Japanese army, who were taken by surprise, suffered more than 500 casualties, and the situation of the Japanese army would become even worse as the follow-up troops of the 1st Brigade continued to pour into Yuanheicheng.

"Kill, give!"

Goto Juro pulled out his command knife and desperately commanded his troops to launch a counter-charge against the Eighth Route Army in the back, the Japanese army at this time was undoubtedly very brave, and the Japanese army's counter-charge quickly approached the Eighth Route Army, and soon caused a lot of casualties to our army.

However, the disadvantage of the Japanese army was too obvious, and after the Eighth Route Army reacted, it immediately organized three mortars, boomed, and several rounds of artillery bombardment continued, and the Japanese army's fearless attack was immediately dispersed.

At the same time, the 196th Brigade, which still had a breath left, saw that its reinforcements were coming, and the officers and men whose morale was greatly boosted were like chicken blood, desperately throwing grenades at the Japanese army, and flanking the front and back together with the Eighth Route Army, causing the Japanese army to rush and suffer heavy casualties.

The scales of victory are tilting more and more in favor of the Chinese army.
