"Detachment leader, the first reserve brigade reported that Hequ County was attacked by the guerrilla forces of China, and the two reconnaissance teams they sent out paid more than 80 casualties."

Kunomura Momoyo had just wanted to mobilize Japanese troops from Hequ County to reinforce him, but the Japanese captain reported the situation in Hequ County.

Glancing at the map, Kunomura Momoyo realized that with Sun Weiguo's command ability, how could he not make arrangements in Hequ County.

Now the Okamoto Brigade and Araki Brigade on the north bank of the Zhujiachuan River are pinned down by the main force of the First Reserve Regiment, and it is obviously impossible for Kunomura Momoyo to mobilize them to attack, and the two infantry brigades that have suffered losses can only rely on their positions and use the twelve field guns of the Field Artillery Brigade to resist the attack of the First Reserve Regiment.

The Japanese puppet army troops on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, Kunomura Momoyo, had no way to rescue them for the time being, and what he could do now was to quickly send electricity to the Japanese puppet army troops there and let them quickly break through.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, after the Japanese puppet army on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River was attacked by poison gas bombs, and at the same time that it was attacked by two infantry regiments, a cavalry regiment, and an armored company, the four battalions of the first reserve regiment began to use the company as a unit to carry out a strong attack on the town of Xiazhuang.

WITH A "BOOM", AN ARTILLERY SHELL WAS FIRED BY THE JAPANESE 75MM FIELD ARTILLERY, AND A GRENADE LANDED ON THE POSITION OF THE MACHINE GUN COMPANY OF THE THIRD BATTALION OF THE FIRST REGIMENT OF THE RESERVE.

As a crater appeared, shrapnel began to fly in all directions, and the scorching heat made people breathe rapidly.

Xue Yu heard the shouts of Platoon Commander Chen for the first time, he immediately took the artillerymen to hide, and when the surroundings became quiet, Xue Yu immediately began to look for his 82MM mortar, and after seeing that this mortar was fine, Xue Yu was relieved.

He immediately looked at Platoon Commander Chen, and after finding that Platoon Commander Chen was still standing in place, Xue Yu was relieved, and he immediately ordered the artillerymen to set up mortars.

An 82MM mortar began to be erected, and just as Xue Yu was about to fire the shell, he noticed an abnormality, that is, Platoon Commander Chen was still standing in place.

"Platoon seats, what's wrong, what are you still standing for, don't hurry up and command the battle, wait for Lao Tzu to give you credit."

The third battalion platoon commander Chen graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy, originally he wanted to join the Jinsui Army, but he unexpectedly came to the first regiment of the Eighth Route Army Reserve, veterans like Xue Yu looked down on these officers who graduated from the military academy, so they all jokingly called Chen platoon commander "platoon seat." ”

Even after Platoon Commander Chen showed his strength, they still retained the title of Platoon Seat, but in fact, in other faction troops, only officers above the battalion level would have the honorific title of Seat.

"Squad leader, something is wrong, why doesn't this kid move." One of the fighters exclaimed.

Xue Yu also discovered the abnormality, he quickly came to the front of Platoon Commander Chen, and when Xue Yu came to Platoon Commander Chen, he found that Platoon Commander Chen's backup was hit by a shrapnel, and a lot of blood had been shed behind him, and the whole person's reserve was coagulated blood, Platoon Commander Chen's eyes widened, he looked ahead, his body stood straight, and there was an anxious expression on his face, but he no longer had any breath of life.

"Platoon commander, don't fall asleep, who the hell will command the whole platoon of soldiers to fight, without your command, where will Lao Tzu's shells go."

Xue Yu shouted loudly, tears streaming down his dark cheeks, and Xue Yu's face was full of sad expressions.

No matter how Xue Yu shouted, Platoon Commander Chen would never wake up again, and on the battlefield, the humble life was even worse than grass mustard.

"What's wrong with Xiao Chen." Qin Xianliang, the commander of the third battalion, accompanied Sun Weiguo here at this time, and after hearing Xue Yu's shout, Qin Xianliang ran directly past Sun Weiguo, and he asked in a panic.

Seeing Platoon Commander Chen standing motionless, Qin Xianliang's brows furrowed tightly, and his hands couldn't help clenching into fists.

Sun Weiguo slowly saluted Platoon Commander Chen's body, the expression on his face was very calm, but his heart was very uncomfortable.

Even Sun Weiguo, who is accustomed to seeing life and death, every time he encounters the death of his subordinates, his heart will be full of pain.

Platoon Commander Chen is very young, he is only 20 years old, and decades later, 20-year-old young people are still enjoying a beautiful campus life, but in this era, 20-year-old young people have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the country's survival, and they have to use their flesh and blood to resist the iron hooves of the Japanese invaders.

The attack will not stop because of Platoon Commander Chen's death, and the officers and men will not grieve because of Platoon Commander Chen, they will turn their grief into strength and continue to attack.

The four battalions of the first reserve regiment launched an attack for more than three hours, of which the second battalion even attacked the periphery of the town of Waist Zhuang for a time, but because of the appearance of Japanese planes, the troops had to retreat, and at 12 o'clock at noon, Sun Weiguo began to order all units to temporarily stop the attack and stabilize the position.

At the same time, a report has been sent on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River that the cavalry of the Japanese puppet army has paid more than 1,300 casualties, and more than 600 cavalry have been chased to Lan County by the third cavalry regiment and the armored company, and it is only a matter of time before the cavalry of the Japanese puppet army is completely annihilated.

Saito's brigade wanted to cross the river and return to the town of Waist Village, but when their troops crossed the river, they were discovered by the artillery company, and six 75MM mountain guns continued to shell the Japanese army, and the Japanese army's plan to cross the river was shattered, and the remaining more than 400 Japanese troops began to garrison a small nearby village.

Baode County, Waist Zhuang Town, 13th Wing Headquarters of the Japanese Army.

Kunomura Momoyo looked at the map, his face turned pale, and his red eyes were full of unwillingness.

Before, his troops were still in an advantage, but in a short period of time, his troops did not have any advantage, which shocked Kunomura Momoyo.

Especially the Japanese puppet army troops on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, those can be said to be the main force of the Kuno detachment, but now, most of the Japanese puppet army troops on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River have been completely wiped out, and the remaining troops are also mud bodhisattvas crossing the river themselves.

"Captain, we have to make a choice now, if our troops don't retreat now, once the troops on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River deal with the cavalry wing and the Mongolian cavalry and the Saito brigade there, they will quickly cross the river and rush over to surround us."

Chief of Staff Shaosa looked at Kunomura Momoyo, and he said in an anxious tone, in fact, Chief of Staff Shaosa himself understands that even if the Japanese troops in Waist Zhuang Town want to evacuate now, it will be very difficult.
