Chapter 214: Shanghai 10

Just the Japanese pointed out the enemy's position, and the grenadiers could cover the enemy with fire. With the qualities of a grenadier canister, a grenade with a radius of destruction of eight meters is enough to kill with one shot.

Unfortunately, this offensive move of the Japanese army seemed to be expected by the other side. The Japanese also failed to realize that there was a hidden fire point in the small forest in the distance that had not yet been fired.

"It's the same old routine again." Ma Dongsheng, who was lying on the tree, pouted, the kills in his hands had reached 103 people, only a little worse than Xu Baoshan and Zhao Peng, of course, the captain was also a fierce man, if it wasn't for the need to command the team, the enemy would definitely be the one who killed the most. The fact that these people had extremely rich experience in Japanese combat was also due to their understanding of the Japanese army, and the most threatening soldiers of the Japanese army squad size were grenadiers and machine gunners. Ordinary soldiers who are not equipped with sights are not yet their opponents. As long as the Japanese army determines the range of shooting, it can use machine guns and grenadiers to suppress firepower, which is extremely effective against the ordinary army of the Republic of China, because the ordinary army of the Republic of China must be absolutely suppressed by the other side in both shooting and firepower. But there is still a lot of fire owed to the special combat team brought out by Dou Yuren.

With the banging of gunshots, Japanese soldiers continued to fall to the ground, and after the grenadiers, military cao, and squad leader were killed one after another, this Japanese squad became the target of abuse. There are only three ways to deal with a special operations team like Dou Yuren, one is to surround the opponent with absolutely superior forces, and the other is to use absolute firepower to carry out covering artillery bombardment. The third is to use special combat teams against special combat teams. The collision between the conventional troops, which was not particularly outstanding in terms of military superiority, and the elite carefully selected by Jiang Li among the 100,000 troops, of course, had a very bleak ending.

The gunfire was not intensive, but in the eyes of the Japanese army. This sporadic gunfire is even more terrifying than a battlefield full of bullets. often before the opponent is found. The opponent will be able to deal with them. Most of the squad had been killed or wounded.

As the Japanese squad had been suppressed by the elite soldiers led by Dou Yuren, Zhang Chujiu, who had his hands free, fired a few more mortars. Landed near a machine gunner on the bank of the river. In an instant, the machine gun and the nearby Japanese troops were blown away, and a large crater was blown out of the soft earth.

"Kill!" When the boat was still more than a meter away from the river bank, the soldiers on it jumped directly ashore impatiently, and the down-to-earth feeling was really good, and they did not pause to kill the Japanese troops on the shore. Most of the first soldiers to land fell under Japanese fire. However, the death of the comrades-in-arms could not stop the frenzy of the soldiers who crossed the river behind, and the soldiers of the brigade stepped on the corpses of their comrades and continued to storm the Japanese positions.

The 24th Mixed Brigade learned that the elite of the National Army had sent troops to cross the river from Jijiaqiao, and hurriedly sent another brigade to intercept it. But it was too late in time, and the Japanese reinforcements arrived, and more than one regiment of the 261st Brigade had successfully crossed the river, and all the more than 200 Japanese troops on the bank were wiped out.

"I thought you would come back later, but I didn't expect to arrive now, and you helped me a lot in crossing the river this time. The Japanese army on the shore has been wiped out, and your troops are still not showing up? Song Xilian shook hands with Dou Yuren and smiled.

"Brigade Commander Song, the captain is our commander, except for the three people at the sentry, the rest are all in front of Brigade Commander Song. Our captain can't speak, please forgive Brigade Commander Song! "Dou Yuren is a dumb horse. Usually the deputy captain Zhao Peng gives the order on his behalf.

"What? That's all there are you? Not only Song Xilian, but also several guards on his body, as well as Jing Chang, all looked disbelieving.

"Yes, Brigade Commander Song, there is no joke in the army!" Zhao Peng's tone was certain, he was already surprised by Song Xilian's expression.

Song Xilian and the others suddenly gasped, more than a dozen people in front of them actually tortured and killed a squad of Japanese soldiers, but if he knew that most of these people in front of him had the lives of dozens of Japanese soldiers in their hands, except for a few new members, he didn't know what kind of expression it would be. However, looking at the equipment of these people, more than a dozen of them actually carried a small-caliber mortar, a light machine gun, and the others were all Mauser 98 of German origin, and a scope that other soldiers did not have. In addition, there is a well-made military spur pinned to the trousers. Whether it is the clothing, or the momentum exuded by these elites of a hundred battles, it is indeed very different from that of regular soldiers.

Not to mention how much shock this special operations team brought to Song Xilian, Cai Tingkai, commander of the 19th Route Army, learned that the situation in the Miaohang area was critical, and immediately launched a counteroffensive against the Japanese army on the entire line from Jiangwan to Yunyubang at 9 o'clock in the morning, impacting the enemy's offensive momentum, so the 61st Division, the 4th and 5th Regiments flanked the Japanese from the northwest of Jiangwan. A regiment of the 78th Division took over the defense of Yangjialou of the 61st Division. Another regiment controlled the Xia family house and fought against the defenders of the Bazi Bridge and the Jiangqiao. The 61st Division was on the right flank, and the 261st Brigade of Song Xilian, which had successfully crossed the river, was on the left flank.

The 19th Route Army, which was composed of two different factions, cooperated with Zhang Zhizhong's 5th Army, and after each unit reached the established position, they jointly launched a counterattack against the Japanese troops who had broken into the area of Mai's house and the cemetery on the south side. The 24th Brigade of Xia Yuan Xiong Mi was originally a surprise army, but because Song Xilian succeeded in forcibly crossing, due to the cooperation of the two different factions of the national army, the strange soldier once again became a lone army, in the case of being flanked on three sides, the hasty retreat, only a small part remained in Jinjiatang, and the Maijiazhai area stubbornly resisted to cover the retreat of the main force, and the bloody battle lasted until 8 o'clock in the evening, and more than 700 Japanese troops in the department were annihilated by the national * army.

After the failure of the offensive on all fronts, the Japanese commander Kenkichi Ueda adjusted his strategy from attacking on all fronts to focusing on assaults. Concentrating the main forces and aircraft of the 9th Division, the artillery focused on attacking the positions of the 87th Division east of Maijiazhai and Jinjiatang. The concentrated shelling of the positions of the defenders lasted almost two hours. After suffering some casualties, Zhang Zhizhong withdrew the 87th Division in time. The powerful destructive force of the shells almost leveled the position of the 87th Division, and then the Japanese successfully occupied the position. However, at this time, the vitality of the 87th Division was still there, and the reserves of the 61st Division and the 78th Division that had been reinforced fought back again, after several tragic battles. Nearly 2,000 people were killed and wounded, the Japanese army threw down thousands of corpses, and the position was restored to the initial stage when the main force of the 9th Division launched an attack. Unwilling to accept defeat, Ueda Kenkichi organized another attack, but under the stubborn counterattack of Zhang Zhizhong's 5th Army and 19th Route Army, the attacking troops were once again pushed back head-on.
