On the battlefield of Beidaying in Shenyang, almost the 4th Division of Reading Force had just captured Beidaying, and it had not yet had time to repair the fortifications.

About 2,000 troops lined up with rifles and launched a counterattack against them.

By this time, it was getting dark, and the Air Force was about to be temporarily unable to provide air fire support.

The officers and men of the 4th Division had to rely on tanks and armored vehicles to resist the attack.

In order to consolidate the Beida Battalion, which had just arrived, Liu Jianguo, commander of the 4th Division of Reading Force, hurriedly transferred an infantry regiment and an air defense regiment directly under the division to reinforce it.

The 4th Division, with the cooperation of the tank division, formed a dense network of crossfire, and the devil soldiers who counterattacked and charged were knocked down one by one.

But the devil in front was shot and fell, and immediately after him, someone stepped on the corpse of his companion and continued to rush up without fear of death.

The battle was extremely fierce, just when the offensive and defensive sides were at a standstill.

A piercing scream suddenly sounded from the rear of the devil attack force, and the devil soldiers who were attacking suddenly pulled out their gas masks from their backpacks when they heard the sound.

Since he has repeatedly suffered losses from the poison gas bombs of the Northeast New Army, he said that all his gas masks have now been distributed to individual soldiers.

In the dark night sky, the whistle-like screaming sound was extremely harsh, almost muffling the dense gunfire.

......Dozens of rounds of poison gas bombs fell into the position of the 4th Division of the Beida Battalion.

The officers and men of the 4th Division were shocked, and it was the first time they encountered poison gas, and they were suddenly a little flustered, and the originally dense firepower also stopped sparsely.

However, some of the veterans immediately shouted at the top of their voices: "Put on your gas masks and ......"

With the veterans taking the lead and reminding them, the recruits began to busily put on gas masks.

The tankmen inside the tank were also busy looking for gas masks, and the tanks at this time did not have automatic anti-biological devices.

The use of poison gas bombs was originally his hobby, but he was preempted by Zhang Xinghan's troops in the September 18 Incident, and he suffered a big loss by surprise.

Now that the war situation is critical, he suddenly sacrificed chemical weapons, but the effect is not bad.

Due to the lack of psychological preparation for the use of poison gas bombs against the devils, the officers and men of the 4th Reading Division were a little flustered, and the fire stopped.

The Devil's attacking forces seized this golden opportunity and took advantage of the situation to attack.

A large group of devil soldiers poured into the Beida camp like a tide with rifles in the dark night, and the infantry of the 4th Division of Reading Force hurriedly fired back, with little effect, and were soon forced out by the army.

Dozens of tank armorers risked their lives to avoid being captured, without even putting on gas masks, and opened fire and launched the tanks backwards.

The sudden fire of the vehicle-mounted machine gun caused a lot of casualties to the surrounding ghost soldiers, and at the same time, it also isolated some ghost soldiers who were holding explosive bags and wanted to rush up and destroy the tank.

In this way, dozens of tanks quickly retreated back with unstoppable momentum and full firepower, and safely retreated to their own sortie positions along the steel frame bridge under the response of their own troops.

Beidaying once again fell into the hands of the devils.

Tieling, the former enemy headquarters of the Northeast New Army.

Liu Jianguo put down the phone in frustration and said to Zhang Xinghan: "Commander, the 4th Division failed to hold it, and the Beida Battalion was taken back by the little devils again." ”

"Huh? What's going on? Zhang Xinghan was a little surprised.

"The little devil suddenly used a poison gas bomb, and our officers and soldiers were caught off guard and were exploited by the devil." Liu Jianguo suddenly said: "Oh, by the way, the more than 200 tank soldiers in the dozens of tanks responsible for covering the infantry battle have almost all been poisoned by poison gas because of their efforts to break through, and the situation is now very critical." ”

"Gas bombs? The fucking little devil is a lot more cunning now, too. Zhang Xinghan was suddenly angry when he heard this, and said with a calm face: "Order the artillery to replace them with sulfur arson bombs and carry out a covering attack on the Beida Battalion, I want to turn the Beida Camp into a crematorium and burn all the little devils who attacked the Beida Camp to ashes." ”

"Yes!" Liu Jianguo hurriedly stepped forward and answered, just about to turn around and leave.

Zhang Xinghan raised his hand and stopped him again: "By the way, you immediately arrange to send all the poisoned tank armored soldiers back to Jilin for rescue immediately, and save their lives at all costs. ”

"Yes, I will do it immediately." Liu Jianguo happily responded, turned around and walked away quickly.

Zhang Xinghan gave an order, and the seven heavy artillery regiments replaced the shells with sulfur arson.

"Whoosh, whoosh......" The sound of rapid shells flying out sounded, and hundreds of arson shells quickly fell into the North Camp.

As soon as the arson bomb exploded, flames immediately flew everywhere, and everything that could be burned, including the corpses of soldiers on both sides, quickly burst into flames, and the fire soon enveloped the devil soldiers who were rushing to repair the fortifications.

Some of the devil soldiers began to roll back and forth on the ground in panic because they were stained with flames, trying to extinguish the flames.

But to their despair, the flames on their bodies grew bigger and bigger, and soon spread all over their bodies, turning them into burning people and burning them alive.

Since Zhang Xinghan did not receive an order for a ceasefire, the artillery group of the New Army continued to carry out a fierce shelling of the Beida Battalion for more than two hours.

Almost all of the ammunition reserves for the incendiary arson bombs they were carrying this time were gone.

Two hours later, Beidaying was already in a sea of fire, and everything that could be burned was ignited.

The raging fire is extremely conspicuous in the dark night, and can be faintly seen for dozens of miles from near and far.

The wails of the soldiers could no longer be heard in the fire, but a disgusting smell of meat wafted from the fire.

At the same time, on the west bank of the Liao River, after a rapid march in the middle of the night.

Li Zhenyuan led 600 tanks and armored vehicles and 3,000 infantry along the west bank of the Liao River to the Qianpitun area east of Xinmin, which was less than 10 kilometers away from the destination of his trip, Guanjiabao.

Li Zhenyuan was leading his troops to march when suddenly a soldier from the forward sertoon drove a side three-wheeled motorcycle at a gallop.

"Commander, there are devil soldiers patrolling along the coast three kilometers ahead." The communications soldier saluted on the side three-wheeled motorcycle.

"How many devils are there?" Li Zhenyuan poked his head out of the armored car and asked.

"The strength is about a brigade, relying on the Liao River to build fortifications, the main force is in the position, and there are a small number of mobile sentinels patrolling outside." The Signal Soldier replied.

"The tank opened the way, rushed over to destroy his dog, and then quickly advanced towards Guanjiabao!" Li Zhenyuan immediately ordered.

"Yes!" The communications corps saluted and immediately drove away on motorcycles.

…………………… The army was stationed three kilometers east of Qianpitun, and the force was indeed an infantry brigade.

This is one of the alert troops deployed by the commander of the Xinmin Army on both sides of the Liaohe Bridge just in case.

Further south, there are no less than two wings of troops stationed on the Liaohe Bridge and some coastal villages on both sides.

However, it was impossible for an infantry brigade to hold back the iron frenzy of six hundred tanks and armored vehicles of two armored tank divisions by virtue of the guard positions built on the flat river beach.

Li Zhenyuan only mobilized one tank regiment, and 100 tanks launched an assault on the position of the infantry brigade of the Yue Army, and it took less than 20 minutes to completely annihilate this unfortunate Yue Army brigade.

The main force continued to roar towards Guanjiabao, seven kilometers away, without stopping.

The army deployed a wing of garrison troops at Guanjiapu, and the gunfire in Qianpitun had already alarmed them.

Li Zhenyuan surrounded this army wing on the bank of the Liao River on three sides with 600 tanks and armored vehicles from two tank divisions, and used hundreds of tank guns and hundreds of machine guns of various types to form a powerful firepower.

The army was hit with extremely dense firepower, especially the tank guns of 400 tanks, that is, 400 75mm guns.

Imagine how spectacular it would be if 400 guns fired a fierce salvo?

3,000 infantry also joined the siege, and the powerful firepower composed of tanks and armored vehicles had suppressed the remnants of the devils who were still fighting the beasts.

The 3,000 infantry went up to basically harvest buds and peanuts.

Therefore, in less than half an hour, Guanjiabao had been captured by Li Zhenyuan.

It happened to borrow the fortifications dug by the Japanese army, with 3,000 infantry as the main force and backbone of the defensive force.

Four tank regiments and two armored regiments were stationed around Guanjiabao and fought in a mobile manner.

The news of the loss of Guanjiabao was soon spread to Shenyang by the Xinmin army.

In Shenyang City, Shunroku Hatata, who was overwhelmed by the tragic situation and serious losses of the Beida camp, was furious.

In less than a day and a night, the casualties of his troops in Beida Camp had exceeded 10,000.

Among them, more than half of them were directly killed, if you add the losses in the Battle of Tieling.

At this moment, Shunroku Hata had already suffered nearly 30,000 casualties, half of whom were killed in battle.

Only two days after the start of the war, 30,000 casualties were lost, and 50 percent of the casualties were killed.

Shunroku Hata was roaring and scolding several devil commanders with shame and fear.

Chief of Staff Noda Bugu led a man in a hurry.

"Your Excellency, look who's coming." Noda Bugu reported with a smile.

When Shunroku Hahata heard this, he looked up and saw that the person who came was none other than Major General Toranosuke Hashimoto, Chief of the General Staff of the Kwantung Army Headquarters.

"Why did Chief of Staff Hashimoto come in person?" Shunroku Hata, a little surprised, hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

Before Hashimoto Toranosuke could answer, a military communications officer ran in in a hurry, and said without saluting: "Report to Your Excellency General, it's not good, the Guanjiabao on the west bank of the Liaohe Bridge was raided and occupied by the Shina Army at night, and now our communication with Xinmin has been cut off!" ”
