AS THE TWO 60MM MORTARS BEGAN FIRING, NINE LIGHT MACHINE GUNS, NINE GRENADIERS, AND HUNDREDS OF RIFLES FROM THE FIRST COMPANY OF THE INFANTRY BATTALION BEGAN TO FIRE.

Bullets and miniature grenades were fired at the devil soldiers, and the two sides began to fall into a fierce battle, and the bullets shot at the Chinese and Japanese soldiers like meteors in the dark night.

THE BATTLE BEGAN TO BECOME FIERCE, THE JAPANESE INFANTRY GUNS, LIGHT AND HEAVY MACHINE GUNS, GRENADIERS, 20MM ANTI-TANK GUNS WERE ALL PUT INTO THE BATTLE, THE JAPANESE TROOPS WERE NUMERICALLY SUPERIOR, THEY BEGAN TO GARRISON THE FIRST COMPANY OF THE JIBU BATTALION OF SHIMENKOU TOWN LAUNCHED A FIERCE FIRE SUPPRESSION, A LARGE NUMBER OF DEVIL SOLDIERS BEGAN TO RUSH TOWARDS SHIMENMEN TOWN WITH RIFLES.

The 7th and 8th officers of the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade came to the front line to direct the battle, brandishing their sabers, and encouraged the devil soldiers to quickly capture Shimen Town.

An infantry squadron of the 7th Independent Infantry Brigade had approached the position of the first company of the Jibu Battalion, and the follow-up hundreds of devil soldiers were rapidly advancing towards Shimenmen Town under the cover of infantry guns, anti-tank guns, and light and heavy machine gun grenadiers.

"Boom, boom." One by one, the grenades began to be thrown by the first company of the infantry battalion, followed by three Type 92 armored vehicles of the first company, seven Type 91 armored vehicles began to drive along the broken streets, ten armored car units took the lead in launching a counterattack, and a large number of soldiers threw grenades, and they quickly installed bayonets.

Dozens of fighters with rifles followed behind ten armored vehicles and launched a counterattack, and the light and heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles began to fire.

More than 30 devil soldiers were caught off guard by light and heavy machine gun bullets from the armored vehicle, and they were shot dead on the spot.

However, the commander of the Japanese army was Kunomura Momoyo, and as Sun Weiguo's old opponent, Kunomura Momoyo still had some understanding of Sun Weiguo's troops.

He knew about the establishment of Sun Weiguo's troops, and even more so that the Japanese army had failed to fight Sun Weiguo's troops several times, and a large number of weapons and ammunition had been captured by Sun Weiguo.

The situation in Shimen Town was understood by Momoyo Kunomura, and he had already deployed a battle defense artillery team to assist the infantry in the attack.

AFTER THE TEN ARMORED VEHICLES ATTACKED FROM SHIMENKOU TOWN, EIGHT 37MM ANTI-TANK GUNS, FOUR 47MM ANTI-TANK GUNS, AND EIGHT 20MM RAPID-FIRE GUNS UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF THE BATTLE DEFENSE ARTILLERY TEAM BEGAN TO QUICKLY ADJUST THE FIRING ANGLE.

Two Type 91 armored vehicles were destroyed on the spot, and one of the remaining eight armored vehicles was also penetrated, but it did not hit the armored vehicles and the vital points of the members, and the armored vehicles could still continue to drive, but the strong anti-tank capabilities exposed by the Japanese army made the commander of the first company realize that the armored vehicles could not continue to fight.

The commander of the first company immediately gave the order for the armored vehicles to retreat, and the remaining eight armored vehicles quickly moved towards the town and retreated.

HOWEVER, THE JAPANESE ARMY'S FOUR 47MM ANTI-TANK GUNS AND EIGHT 20MM RAPID-FIRE GUNS BEGAN TO FIRE, AND ONE AFTER ANOTHER ARMOR-PIERCING SHELLS QUICKLY HIT THE ARMORED VEHICLES.

Four of the eight armored vehicles on the retreat were destroyed, and in the end only two Type 91 armored vehicles were finally left, and two Type 92 armored vehicles were safely withdrawn to the town.

And the dozens of fighters who followed behind the armored car have now begun to fight with the devil soldiers, but the number of devil soldiers has a huge advantage.

More and more officers and soldiers of the first company of the Jibu Battalion fell, and the soldiers who were at a disadvantage pulled the grenades on their bodies, and they chose to die with the little devils.

Zaoling Village is located four kilometers east of Shimenkou Town, which is less than eight kilometers away from Donghui Town, and with the order of Kuno Village Momoyo, the Japanese search team has begun to expand the search area.

The search team of the 1st Brigade of the Mixed Forces has a cavalry squadron, an armored vehicle squadron, and a motorized infantry squadron.

More than 30 cavalrymen from the cavalry squad of the Japanese search team came to Zaoling Village, and the leader of the Japanese second lieutenant squad looked around with a telescope, and a grim smile appeared on his face.

Most of the people in Zaoling Village have been transferred to the tunnel, but there are still some people who are reluctant to have their belongings, they are still at home, and these people are naturally the target of the devil soldiers, the cavalry squad leader saw that there was no situation nearby, and he planned to loot the village first.

"Cavalry squad, free for an hour!" The cavalry squad leader began the order.

As the cavalry squad leader's order began to be issued, more than thirty cavalrymen began to frantically advance towards Zaoling Village, the cavalry brandished their sabers, and their faces showed excited expressions.

But just as they began to move, the roar of tanks began to be heard in front.

When the cavalrymen heard the roar of the tanks, they immediately reined in the reins of their horses, and the cavalry squad leader hurriedly raised his binoculars to observe.

On the road in the distance, there was a faint flickering of car lights, and the face of the cavalry squad leader changed, and he immediately realized that it was very likely that the tank unit of the Eighth Route Army was in the distance.

The cavalry squad leader did not dare to be careless, he immediately began to take out signal flares, and he cleverly hit them into the sky.

Red flares immediately appeared in the sky, while tanks in the distance began to stop.

Yin Jinshan, the commander of the Sixth Cavalry Regiment, immediately opened the tank hatch, he held a telescope and looked ahead, and Yin Jinshan had a solemn expression on his face.

"Immediately contact Ye Zimin's infantry battalion and ask him to send armored vehicle units to search and advance, each vehicle will be fifty meters away, and all units will be ready for battle." Yin Jinshan immediately gave the order.

After Ye Zimin, commander of the Jibu Battalion, received the order, he immediately dispatched five Type 91 armored vehicles, and five Type 92 armored vehicles were attached to a mechanized infantry platoon to reconnoiter to the front, while the rest of the Jibu Battalion continued to cooperate with the armored battalion troops.

Ten armored vehicles quickly moved to the front, followed closely by motorcycles and trucks of infantry.

Yin Jinshan immediately summoned Liang Weifeng, deputy head of the regiment, and Liu Ke, chief of staff, together, and Yin Jinshan began to discuss the battle plan with them.

The Japanese troops have an absolute advantage, and they are waiting for work in Shimen Town, Yin Jinshan wants to reinforce the first company of the Jibu Battalion to hold Shimen Town, which is a certain difficulty.

"No matter what the cost, we must defend Shimen Town."

After Liang Weifeng and Chief of Staff Liu Ke came to the Type 97 tank, Yin Jinshan said in a firm tone.
