On September 3, the 26th year of the Republic of China, the Battle of Tianzhen began as scheduled. The Japanese Kwantung Army Chahar sent the Corps to form the 1st Brigade and Regiment to launch an attack on the positions of our Tianzhen. All the officers and men of the 61st Army of our army who were guarding Tianzhen bravely resisted.

Around Tianzhen, Lijiazhai, Luojiashan, Panshan, and various positions were attacked by the Japanese army. The sound of gunfire in the Tianzhen area was deafening and continued throughout the night. The Japanese army used aircraft, artillery, tanks, cavalry infantry, and even poison gas bombs, which are banned internationally, to carry out fierce attacks on the defenders of our Tianzhen. Our officers and men held their positions and fought tenaciously.

On September 4, the Japanese army once again gathered heavy troops and launched a comprehensive siege on the main positions on the periphery of Tianzhen, such as Lijiazhai and Luojiashan. The defenders were bombarded and strafed by enemy aircraft at low altitudes and subjected to heavy artillery bombardment, and their positions were almost leveled.

Despite this, our officers and men in the defensive position still resisted to the death and stubbornly held on to their positions. The Japanese planes bombed the heavy artillery, the heavy artillery bombarded the infantry charge, and the planes bombed again after the infantry was repulsed. This was repeated more than 10 times a day, and the officers and men of our garrison suffered heavy casualties.

Of the nine company commanders of the 425th Regiment, three were killed and five were seriously wounded. The commander of the first battalion of the 400th Regiment was wounded and the commander of the second battalion was killed, and the officers and men of the regiment suffered more than 500 casualties.

Although the shape was so severe, our officers and men, with the spirit of not fearing death and their tenacious will to fight, still inflicted a large number of casualties on the enemy while holding their positions. The 426th Regiment and the 401st Regiment respectively achieved the results of annihilating more than 200 enemy troops at the Daqiao and Hongshiya Mountain positions.

Although Wangjiashan is not the main offensive position of the Japanese army, it is also not a paradise. In addition to launching a fierce attack on the main positions such as Panshan, the devils also sent a small force to attack the Wangjiashan position.

The Japanese army was responsible for attacking Wangjiashan with a reinforced squadron of about 200 people.

Hu Fei has been waiting in Wangjiashan for more than half a month, and he is finally waiting for the devil to attack, of course he has to enjoy this battle!

The devil came up from the bottom along the mountain road, and at the front were two small ironclad cars. The reason why it is said to be small is because these two ironclad cars are really not big, and the height of the vehicles is not even one meter seven.

Hu Fei has now grown into a 1.80 meter man, and if he stands in front of an ironclad car like a devil, he can be half a head taller than the roof of the car! At that time, the height of the little devil could sit two people in it, and if he had to change it to a tall Northeast man, it was estimated that he couldn't even turn his body when he sat inside.

Behind the two chariots were devil soldiers with rifles in their hands and hunched over their waists, and there were about forty or fifty devils charging up the hill with the small chariots.

When Hu Fei arranged his defensive position, he planted mines on several mountain roads, and the road taken by the devil was the most heavily mined. There was no need for Hu Fei to give orders, and the troops in ambush on both sides of the mountain road naturally remained silent.

The mountain was silent, and the rattling of the tracks of the devil's chariot was extremely harsh. After walking for a while, the machine guns on the chariot fired a few rounds into the grass on the side of the road, which was called fire reconnaissance.

The highest ambush position of our army was Gou Tianxiao's first company. During the march, he was the sharp knife company and scout team of the whole army, and when he was in an ambush, the first company was the first ambush circle of the cavalry brigade!

Seeing that the two chariots had rolled over the mine at the front, the soldier next to him slapped him as soon as his shoulder moved, "Don't move!" Wait until the devil reaches the third one and then pull the string! ”

Because the camouflage was good enough when the mines were planted, the devil's bean chariot still didn't feel the slightest feeling. However, the devil infantry who followed behind the chariot felt that something was not quite right under their feet. The kid looked down and was about to bend down to touch what was so awkward, and the devil squad leader behind him became impatient.

"Yaga! Come on! The devil squad leader hit the butt of the gun on the butt of the subordinate in front of him, who looked a little timid, and the devil in front of him quickly sped up his steps. The devil squad leader scolded and followed.

"Boom!" The fire flashed, and with a loud bang, an ironclad chariot was violently lifted to the ground. The other one shook twice, then continued to drive forward.

It's a mine! The first mine of our army blew up a devil and an ironclad chariot. With the explosion of the first mine, more than a dozen mines exploded one after another, and more than a dozen craters of different sizes were blown out of the mountain road.

Seeing the continuous explosions in front of him, the devil captain knew that he had been ambushed, and the old devil shouted at the throat of the male duck: "Retreat!" Fall back! "With the sound of gunfire like beans on the ambush position of our army, the devil withdrew, and the surviving light chariot drove directly down the mountain.

The devil's first charge was repulsed. However, this was the beginning of the fierce battle.

A quarter of an hour later, with a sharp whistle, the devil's grenadier mortar began to strike before the infantry charged.

Although Gou Tianxiao had long known the Japanese army's attack routine, and had given the soldiers a concealment order in advance within fifteen minutes of the ceasefire, the devil's accurate shells still caused great damage to our troops.

Seasoned veterans know how to change their hiding positions to avoid the devil's shells, while those recruits who have only recently joined the army and were bandits a month ago do not know the power of the devil's shells.

Liu Ergou was a small bandit leader in the drinking horse village a month ago, and now he is a glorious squad leader of the national army. In the past, I always heard people say how powerful and evil the devil is, but when I look at it today, it is actually commonplace! Liu Ergou saw the power of the explosion of those mines just now, but Liu Ergou saw it very clearly, at least ten devils were blown up by mines, and there was one of the dozen mines that he buried with his own hands.

When the company commander said to hide and guard against devils, Liu Ergou didn't take it seriously at all. **, he had seen it before in the stockade. Stuff the cannon barrel with gunpowder and fill it with iron pellets, a little lead, boom, the sound is strange and powerful, but that thing is not accurate. Even the gunner didn't know where the gun would hit until he fired it. Is the little devil going to make that thing hit someone?

Watching the veterans run out dozens of steps from the original shooting position with their heads in their arms and then find a place to hide, Liu Ergou felt funny. Isn't it just **? I've seen it a long time ago! If it weren't for the little devil who would have to come up for a while, Liu Ergou would have wanted to call those veterans together and tell them about the ** side story.

The explosion sounded, a bit like the big thunder released during the Chinese New Year. A sharp whistle was rapidly approaching, and the hair on Liu Ergou's head stood up all of a sudden, and almost subconsciously rolled to the ground with his head in his hands.

"Boom!" As soon as there was a sound, Liu Ergou felt that his body was lifted up violently and fell heavily to the ground. This almost knocked all the internal organs out of position, and the ears were buzzing.

Shaking his dazed head, he looked around, and he was almost twenty paces away from the firing position just now. There was an extra pit in the firing position, and none of the brothers of the machine gun squad could be seen.
