Chapter 87: Ren Jie's Martyrdom and the Battle of Yangjialing (2)

Niuxing, Lehua, and Jiaoqiao have been lost one after another, which has made Oga Mao extremely angry and angry. And the loss of Yangjialing Station made him go crazy. Because, most of the supplies of the Japanese army in northern Hunan on the Changsha front line had to be transported from the Yangjialing transfer yard. If they can't deliver ammunition supplies in time and delay the warplane, he will have to go to court-martial.

He couldn't figure out how the Niuhang Station was located in the northern suburbs of Nanchang, its own core area, how the Chinese army came here through the blockade line, and why they dared to attack and occupy it.

Now, even the northern stations such as Jiaoqiao and Lehua, which are adjacent to Niuhang, have fallen into the hands of the Chinese army, and the entire line of the Nanxun Railway has been interrupted. He was organizing forces to attack the enemy forces occupying Niuhang Station and recovering the station as soon as possible, but the Yangjialing transit station fell into the hands of the Chinese army.

The busy and chaotic Oga Shigeru had no choice but to issue another death order to the devil troops near Yangjialing, no matter what, he had to destroy the Chinese army occupying Yangjialing as soon as possible and recapture the station.

It turned out that when Xiao Xiong learned that the 100th Army of the Third Theater was about to launch an attack and attack Niuhang Station, the Ganbei Special Brigades decided to launch an attack on the enemy stationed in Yangjialing at the same time on September 23.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the battle, in addition to leaving more than 800 people as an offensive force, Xiao Xiong left a team of more than 100 people in the direction of Yangjialing to Qiujin, Tujiabu, Aicheng, Junshan and other places, and set up blocking positions along the way, preparing to block the enemy's reinforcements.

At 4 o'clock in the morning, that is, at the same time that the 100th Division led by Tang Boyin, the commander of the 19th Army, to attack Niuhang Station, Xiao Xiong also issued an order to attack.

In an instant, the sound of guns and cannons resounded in the sky above Yangjialing, and Yangjialing Station was fiercely attacked by the Einsatzgruppen.

Yangjialing Station is located in a hilly area, in order to ensure the safety of this important transit station, the devils built a total of four turrets on the high ground on both sides of the railway, and two pillboxes were built on each side of each turret, and the three firing points were horns of each other. Such a position shape encloses the freight yard, warehouse, and devil barracks at the station. Not only that, the devils along the Nanxun Railway, on both sides almost every 5 or 6 hundred meters built a bunker, these bunkers are connected in a line, to the south can directly lead to the Yangliujin Railway Bridge, to the north can lead to Junshan, Jiangyi and other farther places. It can be said that purely from the perspective of the defensive situation, the devil's defensive design is very conservative and effective, in short, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, no wonder Oga Shigeru will be angry after the station is occupied.

Xiao Xiong divided the team into more than a dozen action groups, led by each squadron leader, to attack the devils respectively.

Wang Xiaofei led two squads of the third squadron with a total of more than 60 people, and lurked near the devil's turret and two pillboxes in the north. After the battle began, the three demolition teams took advantage of the extremely short time when the enemy was blinded by the artillery fire just now, and each attacked their respective targets. As two of the groups were about to storm the enemy's pillbox, they were knocked down by the machine-gun fire fired by the devils who had just recovered from their senses, and all six soldiers were killed. The remaining group crawled forward to the devil's running building, and just pulled the fuse of the explosive bag, he was also hit by the enemy in the bunker and died under the turret.

With a loud "boom", the devil's turret was blown up into the sky. Wang Xiaofei took advantage of the smoke and dust from the explosion of the turret to order everyone to attack immediately. The devils in the bunker kept blazing towards the smoke. Quite a few soldiers were hit by machine guns and fell, but the soldiers who rushed to the bunker stuffed a grenade with the fuse in the eye-catching eye of the bunker.

After two explosions, there was no more movement in the bunker. Wang Xiaofei occupied the devil's position in the north at a small cost of sacrificing more than 10 soldiers. They immediately built fortifications in front of the pillbox, preparing to block the reinforcements of the devils coming from the direction of the military mountain.

The other squads that were attacking also attacked the devil at the same time. Although the attack in the east and west directions also encountered some trouble, it was frantically blocked by the devils. However, it was only after sacrificing several demolition teams that they finally captured the devil's position.

The most worrying thing is the attack team led by Ren Jie, when they attacked the position of the devils in the south, they unexpectedly encountered a lot of trouble.

The devil's position south of Yangjialing Station also consisted of a gun tower and two pillboxes, but because the devils were worried that the Yangliujin Bridge not far away would be attacked, an underground bunker was built directly opposite this position, that is, on the west side of the railway, close to the top of the hill. Ren Jie: They attacked from the hilly terrain to the west. When the demolition team just jumped up and was about to attack from the dead end of the gun tower and the bunker, they were discovered by the devils in the bunker, and they immediately fired, and the demolition team that had just rushed out was immediately defeated. Moreover, the explosive bag they were holding was also blown up, affecting the group that was covering behind, so that all the members of the attack were sacrificed, and the first attack was declared a failure.

Ren Jie was not reconciled, he organized several attacks one after another, but under the crossfire of the devil's turret, pillbox and dark fort, all of them failed.

After several defeats, Ren Jie's offensive strength was almost lost. As the offense continued to lose, time passed quickly. At this time, Ren Jie saw that the sky in the east had begun to turn white slightly, and it was about to dawn. If the position cannot be captured at dawn, it will affect the entire battle situation.

In a hurry, Ren Jie left two machine guns as cover, and instructed the remaining team members to prepare to charge, while he himself rushed to the devil's dark bunker with the explosives bag.

He first rolled down the hill as fast as he could, dodging the machine gun fire of the devils. He rolled into the gutter next to the railroad. Then, he quickly got up and threw a grenade at the devil's bunker, and taking advantage of the smoke, he quickly crawled to the bottom of the bunker, put the explosive bag under the bunker, pulled the fuse, and rolled down again.

The explosive pack exploded, and the devil's machine gun stopped firing, but when the team members who had just rushed out were about to reach the devil's turret and pillbox, the machine gun sound of "da-da-da" sounded in the dark fort. Some of the members of the demolition team died on the spot, and those who did not sacrifice were also injured.

Ren Jie no longer had an explosive bag at this time, and he didn't even have a grenade on his body. The sky is beginning to light, and the situation is already very critical. He gritted his teeth, took off his military uniform, folded it into several layers, and climbed up again, and he came to the Bunker.

The devils in the bunker were still shooting wildly at the demolition team, so that they couldn't lift their heads. At this time, Ren Jie suddenly rushed out from the side, and he threw his whole body on the shooting hole of the devil's dark castle. A string of machine-gun bullets hit him, and he shuddered all over, but he stretched out his hands and wrapped his clothes tightly around the red-hot barrel of the machine gun, and pulled it out sharply. The devil in the bunker was shooting out, and suddenly, seeing someone grabbing the machine gun outside, the devil also quickly grabbed the butt of the machine gun and pulled it inside.

Ren Jie endured the pain and snatched the machine gun with all his strength. He quickly turned the muzzle of his machine gun and fired a burst of fire into the bunker, all the way to the end of the bullets. In the end, he threw himself on the firing port of the bunker, did not move, and died a heroic death.

The team members who served as demolition took advantage of the moment when Ren Jie and the devil snatched the machine gun, rushed to the devil's turret and pillbox, and pulled the fuse. The turrets and pillboxes were finally blown up by them.

The southern position was finally occupied, but only 3 of the more than 60 members of the two squads remained, and all of them were seriously wounded.

After Xiao Xiong occupied the four main positions of Yangjialing Station, he immediately led the troops of the Einsatzgruppen to attack the headquarters of the devils, and after a bloody battle, all the devils in the station were eliminated, and they finally occupied Yangjialing Station.

In this battle, although the Einsatzgruppen eliminated more than 200 devils in the station, because it was a tough battle, they also paid a heavy price, losing nearly half of their men and horses, nearly 200 people were killed, and more than 100 team members were injured.

On the one hand, Xiao Xiong asked the team to quickly clean up the battlefield, count the loot, and prepare to blow up some important facilities, and on the other hand, he asked the telegraph operator to immediately send a report to the various units tasked with blocking the attack to understand their combat situation.

The first to call back was Ouyang Cunfeng, who was responsible for blocking the enemy in the direction of Qiujin, and he reported that the devils who had been reinforced in the direction of Qiujin had arrived in more than 10 cars to reinforce them, and after they had blocked Hushan for a while, they had already withdrawn to the area around Mawan to block the attack because of the heavy casualties of the blocking troops.

The enemy in the direction of Junshan was reinforced by train, and they attacked all the way to a place less than 5 miles away from Yangjialing by opening the way of the armored train. Dawn reported that the devil's attack was very ferocious and attacked almost at all costs.

And the most critical situation is to serve as a blocking force in the direction of Ai. This force was led by Ma Changyong, they were blocking the area of Qipanling, because although this area is hilly, but the mountains are gentle, there is almost no danger to defend, under the attack of the devil's fierce artillery fire, the blocking force suffered heavy casualties, they are now fighting and retreating, with the help of the hills on both sides of the highway to block the attack.

Xiao Xiong understood that this battle was a pain to Dahe Mao, and he must have ordered his subordinates to attack to the death, desperately trying to recapture Yangjialing Station. That's what Xiao Xiong wants.

Therefore, after the troops had already destroyed some important facilities at the station, Xiao Xiong then ordered the troops who were acting as blockers to desperately block the enemy's attack on the station and buy at least three hours for the large army. At the same time, it was ordered to immediately attack the Yangliujin Railway Bridge, to completely blow up the railway bridge, use up the explosives it carried, blow up the railway embankment, and block the traffic of the Nanxun Railway. It is necessary to beat Ogamo to tears.
