Zaoling Village has now all fallen into a cloud of smoke, and more than 50 grenadiers from the second battalion of Liu Jingnuma, the fourth battalion of Zhang Wenbin, and two battalions began to fire smoke bombs into the village.

After the smoke bombs were launched, Zaoling Village began to sink into a cloud of smoke, and it was already out of sight.

Zhang Wenbin led his troops to charge behind the tank, and when he didn't see the ghost soldiers and infantry in Zaoling Village for a long time, Zhang Wenbin judged that Zaoling Village was likely to only have Japanese anti-tank weapons and tank troops, he immediately thought of a way, and immediately began to report to Yin Jinshan.

Yin Jinshan quickly approved Zhang's proposal, and the two battalions began firing smoke grenades.

Zaoling Village began to sink into a cloud of smoke, and the infantry began to advance in groups of four or five with cluster grenades, and they moved quickly, quickly searching for Japanese tanks in the village, while Chen Hao's second armored company was blocking outside the village to prevent the Japanese tank troops from breaking out.

Zaoling Village, which was filled with smoke, couldn't see his five fingers, and the devil soldiers inside the tank couldn't see the situation outside.

A Japanese commander opened the hatch, his head came out, and he looked outside.

Seeing that there was smoke outside, the commander had a solemn expression on his face, and even if he wanted to shoot, he couldn't see the target at all.

"Little devil, Lao Tzu is behind you." At this moment, the Japanese commander heard a voice behind him, and before he could look back, he felt a heavy blow on the head, and he fell limply inside the tank, and at the same time a grenade was thrown into the tank along the hatch of the tank.

An explosion sounded, and all four devil soldiers in the Type 89 tank were killed.

A fighter appeared from behind the tank with a smile on his face, because there was smoke cover, and until the fighters appeared behind the tank, the devil soldiers did not notice.

A large number of infantry began to be active in Zaoling Village, and by 2:10, 10 of the 13 Japanese tanks had been blown up, leaving one Type 97 tank and two Type 89 tanks at the wing headquarters, and the captain squadron leader who was bent on evacuation was also killed in the tank.

Shusuke Takei began to realize that he had to evacuate, and if he didn't, he knew that he was going to die here.

"Da Da Da!" At this moment, fierce gunfire rang out, and after hearing this gunshot, Takei Shusuke's face turned pale, and he knew that it must be the rapid-fire artillery squadron that had been attacked.

There was a "boom", and before Shusuke Takei had time to deal with the attack on the rapid-fire artillery squadron, a huge explosion sounded.

Shusuke Takei sat in his chair with a pale face, his eyes became glazed, he knew that even if he broke through now, there would be no chance.

"Why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet, what the hell are they doing?" Shusuke Takei said with a look of resentment.

It's just that no one can answer this question, and the Eighth Route Army, which can answer his question, naturally has no chance to tell him.

The smoke in Zaoling Village gradually began to dissipate, the line of sight began to become clear, and the two remaining Japanese Type 89 tanks began to shoot.

A dozen fighters were caught off guard and were knocked down by the tank's machine guns, but as the two Type 89 tanks began to fire, they themselves were exposed.

Two anti-tank guns outside the village immediately began to fire, and two armor-piercing shells easily pierced the tank armor-piercing, and all the Japanese tanks in Zaoling Village were destroyed.

Shusuke Takei did not leave the wing headquarters that he set up in a house, and when the gunfire outside gradually stopped, Shusuke Takei took out his southern pistol, aimed it at his head, and then he pulled the trigger, the bullet pierced his head, and Shusuke Takei put an end to his guilt.

When Shusuke Takei's gunfire ended, it was exactly half past two!

On August 25, 1938, the troops of the Eastern Route Army captured Zaoling Village under the command of Yin Jinshan and Ge Haifeng, and in this battle, the Eastern Route Army annihilated a tank squadron of the Japanese army, annihilated a tank wing headquarters, annihilated an anti-tank gun squadron, and a rapid-fire artillery squadron, while the troops of the Eastern Route Army paid the price of three T-26 tanks and the lives of more than 30 officers and soldiers.

AT THE SAME TIME, A TANK SQUADRON OF THE JAPANESE REINFORCEMENTS WAS DESTROYED FOUR TANKS, TWO ANTI-TANK GUN SQUADRONS WERE ALSO KNOCKED OUT OF TWO ANTI-TANK GUNS, AND TWO INFANTRY SQUADRONS WERE ANNIHILATED BY THE CAVALRY BATTALION AND AN INFANTRY SQUADRON, AND NOW THE JAPANESE ARMY HAS ONLY THREE INFANTRY SQUADRONS, ONE MACHINE GUN SQUADRON, EIGHT TANKS, SIX 37MM ANTI-TANK GUNS, AND AN ARTILLERY SQUAD STATIONED IN SHIMENZHEN.

The East Route Army quickly captured Zaoling Village, and after Yin Jinshan consulted Chief of Staff Zhao Lerong, the East Route Army divided into two routes and began to act again.

The first road is to march towards the area of Suochun Town, Ge Haifeng Cavalry Battalion, Xiao Zhiwei Armored Battalion, Ye Zimin Machine Infantry Battalion, and the Third Artillery Company, this road is commanded by Yin Jinshan and Ge Haifeng, and their goal is to march towards Suochun Town, so as to open up the connection with the Western Route Army.

The second route troops are Liu Jingnuma's second battalion, Zhang Wenbin's third battalion, Wang Yanbo's cavalry artillery battalion, and the third company of the reconnaissance battalion.

The troops of the Eastern Route Army began to move, and in the headquarters of the 1st Brigade of the Japanese melee in the eastern suburbs.

Kunomura Momoyo was standing by the radio, and he looked at the communications soldier with an anxious expression on his face.

Since receiving the message from Shusuke Takei, Momoyo Kunomura has been standing by the radio, and his heart is full of worry, he is worried that there will be another accident in the tank wing.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, we have lost contact with the tank wing headquarters, and they have no news anymore." The communications soldier took off his headset, and he looked at Kunomura Momoyo and reported.

At this time, the radio station on the side began to tick, and the communication soldier sitting next to him immediately received the message.

After receiving the message, the communications corps immediately handed it over to the staff officer for decipherment, and the staff officer immediately reported the message to Kunomura Momoyo.

"Your Excellency Brigade Commander, the Seventh Independent Infantry Brigade sent a telegram that Zaoling Village has been captured by the Zhina troops, and the tank wing headquarters stationed in Zaoling Village, the Second Tank Squadron, the 47MM Anti-Tank Squadron, and the Rapid-Fire Artillery Squadron are all shattered, and there are currently more than 1,000 Zhina troops equipped with more than a dozen artillery pieces assembled in Shimenkou Town, and they seem to intend to storm Shimenkou Town, and an infantry squadron of the Seventh Independent Infantry Brigade has also been completely annihilated, and the First Tank Squadron also lost four tanks when reinforcing Zaoling Village."

After the staff officer came to Kunomura Momoyo, he reported in a solemn tone.

After Kunomura Momoyo heard this report, he almost fainted directly, and the cost of casualties was too great.
