In Zhujia Town.

At the headquarters of the Little Devil Infantry Brigade, the Captain of the Devil Shaozuo Brigade was ordering several devil communication soldiers around him to send telegrams to their brigade headquarters.

In Zhujia Town, as well as defending several nearby towns, there is an independent mixed brigade of Little Japan, the 2nd Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade of the Central China Front of Little Japan, and the brigade commander Saburo Sakurai, which is also called Sakurai Brigade, was established half a year ago.

The Sakurai Brigade was responsible for the defense of the western part of Shanghai, between Jiaxing and Shanghai, and constituted the first line of defense on the western periphery of Shanghai.

After several main divisions of the Central China Front of Little Japan were transferred to Southeast Asia, the troops that were supplemented were mostly B divisions and C divisions, and they were even organized into several independent mixed brigades.

Among the several independent mixed brigades and regiments established by the Central China Front Army in recent times, the equipment level of the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade is relatively good, and it is equipped with a lot of heavy weapons, including anti-aircraft artillery, antiaircraft machine guns, antiaircraft machine guns, and some mountain artillery, infantry artillery, and other weapons.

Outside the town were full of tanks and armored vehicles of the newly formed 6th Army, and the captain of the devil Shaozuo Brigade who got the news immediately sent a report, reporting the situation urgently, with the intention of asking for help.

Several devil communication soldiers were still sending reports, and a devil second lieutenant hurriedly ran in, and reported anxiously in front of his captain: "Your Excellency, the Imperial Alliance Army is not all good, and at the beginning of the battle, all these Imperial Alliance troops ran out." ”

"Baga, this damn Imperial Army."

The captain of the devil brigade was very angry, there was originally a regiment of the puppet army in the entire Zhujia Town, plus an infantry brigade of his own. With a total number of more than three thousand people, it can be described as a heavy defense, but. These puppet troops are all gone, and there is only one infantry brigade of their own.

The gunfire outside was very fierce, even in his own brigade headquarters, the captain of the devil brigade felt a little deafening, obviously, the battle outside the town was already very fierce, and it was very close to him.

Really. Only three or five minutes later, another devil officer hurriedly ran in, and reported in a sad and loud voice: "Your Excellency, Captain. Our defensive line outside the town was completely lost, and our troops suffered heavy losses, and now the large armored vehicles of the new 6th Army have entered the town. ”

Hear the words. The face of the captain of the devil brigade changed. Far from expecting that he had built a strong turret, equipped with more than a dozen 37-mm anti-aircraft guns, and in addition, built a lot of other fortifications, which were actually vulnerable.

After just thinking about it for a moment, the captain of the devil brigade gave the order to retreat, and shouted loudly to the little devils in the headquarters: "Retreat." Quickly retreat. ”

Now that armored vehicles have begun to enter the town, if they don't retreat. I'm afraid it's too late. Giving the order to retreat, the captain of the devil brigade hurriedly walked out with his command knife on his shoulder.

Outside the headquarters is the main street of the town, and several large trucks have been parked on the street. As soon as he came to the street, the captain of the devil team hurriedly climbed into the cab of one of the big trucks and ordered the little devil to drive quickly.

Seeing this, the rest of the little devils immediately hurriedly climbed up the big truck, they were simply scrambling, and soon, these big trucks were full of little devils, the truck had already started, and some little devils were chasing and climbing up.

Outside of town.

The tanks and armored vehicles of the 3rd Tank Regiment have almost surrounded the entire Zhujia Town, and most of the 1st and 2nd Tank Battalions are destroying the remnants of the little devils outside the town, and the soldiers of the Jibu Battalion have begun to enter the town, preparing to eliminate the little devils in the town.

The tank battalion and the machine infantry battalion are all four formations, that is, four companies under the jurisdiction of the tank battalion, four tank companies under the jurisdiction of the tank battalion, 46 tanks per battalion, four companies under the jurisdiction of the machine infantry battalion, two tank companies, two mechanized infantry companies, the machine infantry battalion is equipped with a total of more than 20 tanks, more than 20 armored vehicles, and the armored vehicles are mainly M3 half-track armored personnel carriers.

The machine infantry battalion entered the town along the road, and at the entrance of the road in the town, the little devils also built fortifications, a lot of sandbags constituted two ring fortifications on the left and right, and the two ring fortifications were equipped with machine guns, each ring fortification had a Type 92 heavy machine gun, two crooked machine guns, in addition, there were some riflemen, a total of dozens of little devils.

Seeing a large number of tanks and armored vehicles driving over, these little devils were scared to death, many of them turned a little pale, some were ready to flee to the town, and some of them set up machine guns and fired at the fighters' tanks and armored vehicles.

The bullets fired by the little devils made the leading M4 Sherman tanks clang, and the sparks were rising, and these tanks saw that the little devils were shooting in vain, and the soldiers in the tanks sneered in their hearts, and a few tanks fired at these little devils.

The thick barrels of several M4 tanks flashed with fire, and several high-explosive shells whistled out, directly hitting these two ring fortifications of the little devils.

"Boom, boom, boom"

With a few loud bangs, these sandbags were blown away, and many of the little devils in the ring fortifications were also blown away, like broken sacks, flying out with the air waves of the explosion, and falling heavily in the distance.

Even those machine guns were also blown away, flying out crookedly, and after several shots in a row, at least more than half of these dozens of little devils were killed by the main guns of the tank, and the rest fled one after another when they saw this.

Several M3 half-track armored vehicles next to them were not far from these little devils, and when they saw the little devils running, the light and heavy machine guns on these armored vehicles began to shoot one after another.

There were about a dozen or twenty little devils who fled, and these little devils had just turned around, and they didn't run far at all, and they were hit by a dense stream of machine-gun bullets.

The tanks and armored vehicles of the Jibu battalion entered Zhujia Town along the highway and advanced on the streets of the town, shooting and killing all the little devils who could be seen.

On the M3 half-track combat vehicles, a large number of soldiers also got out of the vehicles, holding Thomson submachine guns, following their armored vehicles, using the cover of armored vehicles to begin to clear the little devils in the town.

Suddenly, there was also a constant sound of gunfire in the town.

This road leading to the town, entering from the west end of the town, passing out from the east end of the town, and then leading all the way to the Shanghai side, not far from the east end of the town, there are several little devil trucks on the road, each truck is full of little devils.

The road has not been damaged for the time being, but the road condition is not very good, and every truck is seriously overloaded and full of little devils, and these trucks are driving ricketerily and looking a little slow.

Sitting in the driver, looking at the slow-moving big truck, the captain of the devil brigade was so angry that he almost vomited blood, such a slow speed, he would soon be caught up by the tanks of the new 6th Army.

Sure enough, a lot of little devils on the truck found themselves behind, and a lot of tanks were chasing after them, this was a tank company of tanks, and 11 M4 tanks were driving at high speed, much faster than these little devils' trucks.

Some of the tanks were not even on the road, but on the wasteland on either side of the road, and the muzzles of the tanks seemed to be aimed at the target.

The little devils on these cards panicked, and even a few little devils jumped out of the truck, ready to abandon the car and run away.

Riding in the driver's car, he heard the frightened shouts behind him, the devil captain's heart tightened, his face changed, and he immediately asked loudly: "Baga!" What's going on? ”

A little devil next to him leaned out and looked outside the cab, and then said, "Your Excellency, Captain, a lot of tanks have caught up, what should we do?" ”

Caught up so quickly. The captain of the devil team felt a slight despair in his heart, looked at the slow-moving big truck, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Stop, abandon the car and run away, hurry up!" ”

As soon as the devil driver of the truck stepped on the accelerator, as soon as the truck stopped, the devil Dazuo hurriedly got out of the car, and the rest of the little devils in the car saw this and began to jump under the car.

By this time, several tanks had already begun to fire.

"Boom, boom, boom"

For a target as big as a big truck, and the distance is relatively close, the gunners of these M4 tanks can hit this target of 200 meters almost with their eyes closed, and suddenly, several shells whistled and exploded.

A big truck is full of little devils, several little devils have jumped out of the car, and they have run twenty or thirty meters away, and more little devils are still in the car and are about to jump out of the car.

With a violent explosion, a high-explosive bomb hit the truck, and the huge force of the explosion almost blew the truck to pieces, and several wheels and several pieces of broken iron flew out with the explosion.

There are more corpses of little devils, many of them are far away, flying high, falling heavily in the distance, and the little devils in the car are killed nine times out of ten.

The little devils who ran twenty or thirty meters away felt the violent explosion, and they all looked back and saw the big truck that had almost become a pile of wreckage, and a large number of corpses scattered around the big truck, and their faces turned pale with fright, and in an instant, their backs were full of cold sweat.

Another big truck, which was also full of little devils, had just stopped, and the little devils in the car were just about to jump down, when suddenly, violent explosions rang out one after another, and three or four tanks aimed at the big truck, and almost simultaneously opened fire.

Suddenly, the big truck was blown to shreds, and there was hardly much scum left, and the twenty or thirty little devils on the truck were all killed, and some were even blown into several pieces.

The captain of the devil brigade, who had just jumped out of the truck and ran more than ten meters away, saw that many tanks had already fired, his face was a little pale, he looked back hurriedly, and then ran wildly at his fastest speed.

There were also three large trucks that were not destroyed for the time being, and the little devils in the car saw this, jumped out of the car desperately, and then fled as fast as they could.
