Just when Ouyang Cheng led the troops to fight, He Laifu had already learned that Jing Yukun led the joint logistics brigade, the ambulance brigade, and the first infantry battalion to cross the Ganjiang River safely, so he ordered Wan Zixiong to command the special operations brigade along the east bank of the Ganjiang River, the engineer brigade along the west bank of the Ganjiang River, and the sailor brigade to go down the Ganjiang River. He also crossed the Ganjiang River along the road opened by Jing Yukun in front of him, and then took the joint logistics brigade, the ambulance brigade, and the first infantry battalion to Shanggao, and the artillery brigade moved closer to the north of Jing Yukun cluster.

Ouyang Cheng ordered the armored brigade and the cavalry brigade to bypass Xiangtang and continue to advance towards Nanchang, the artillery brigade left 3 heavy artillery pieces to participate in the attack on Xiangtang, and the rest advanced to Nanchang with the rear of the cavalry brigade.

Xiangtang's devils saw that Wu Mujun had another heavy artillery, and knew that they were invincible, so they quickly evacuated after asking for instructions from the Nanchang Brigade Headquarters.

The commander of the 11th Army of the Devils, Anan Weiji, learned that the elite troops composed of Wumu Army's chariots, cavalry, heavy artillery and infantry were attacking and advancing towards Nanchang, and that there were ships advancing along the Ganjiang River, and hurriedly ordered the Japanese troops on the front line of Nanchang and Fengxin, Anyi, Yongxiu, and De'an to stop the main attack in the direction of Changsha, gather troops, and prepare to reinforce Nanchang. This is tantamount to giving the devil a salary to the bottom of the kettle and a charcoal to Xue Yue.

Through roundabout contact, Ouyang Cheng learned that the devils around Nanchang were gathering troops, and knew that the plan to feint on Nanchang had been mostly successful, and he still needed to work harder. So he ordered Niu Daojia to set up a formation of the armored brigade in Nanchang County, on the outskirts of Nanchang, the artillery brigade also built a position, the cavalry brigade patrolled around the artillery position to protect, and the anti-tank brigade and the third infantry battalion gave up the pursuit and moved closer to the artillery brigade.

At the same time, he learned that the western units along the shores of Poyang Lake and the troops of the Third Theater were also moving westward, so he hurriedly dispatched one or two brigades each from Fengxin, Anyi, and Yongxiu to Nanchang to supplement the shortage of troops in Nanchang.

For two days in a row, Ouyang Cheng pulled out a posture of soldiers coming to the city and waiting for the follow-up troops, but in fact, he sent soldiers to buy duck meat and duck eggs, fish and shrimp, improve food, and rest very nourishingly.

Liu Maoer led the sailor brigade to drift in the direction of Nanchang unhurriedly, and stopped every once in a while to catch some fish and shrimp to improve their lives, and from time to time to help the special operations brigade that relied on two legs to hurry, and finally exchanged fire with the devils in the Toyama area.

In fact, the devils in Toyama only have a reinforced squadron, with 2 heavy machine guns and 1 mortar, which is not enough for Liu Maoer to pick up.

Liu Maoer 3 fast gunboats, each boat has 1 37mm rapid-fire gun, 1 heavy machine gun, two squads of infantry, 18 motorized speedboats each boat has 1 heavy machine gun, a meteor thunder launcher, 4 crew members are equipped with shell guns, a total of 3 rapid-fire guns, 21 heavy machine guns, 84 infantry, shooting Toyama is basically a kitchen knife to cut mosquitoes, anti-aircraft guns to shoot sparrows, not to mention the help of a special operations team. However, Ouyang Cheng's order can only be fought against Fushan, and cannot be taken, Liu Mao'er knows the severity and will definitely comply.

The engineer brigade first built a bridge on the other side of Toyama, and the devils were naturally unwilling to harass them with heavy machine guns and mortars. , Liu Maoer's sailor brigade hurried to the shore with rapid-fire guns to attack the shore positions of the devils, but did not send infantry.

The defenders of Fushan couldn't withstand Liu Maoer's shelling at all, and hurriedly asked for help from the brigade headquarters in Nanchang County. The devils in Nanchang learned that the Zhina Army was building a bridge on the Ganjiang River, and they were afraid that the Zhina Army would pave the way for the attack on Nanchang, so they did not dare to be negligent, and hurriedly sent 1 infantry squadron and 1 infantry artillery squadron to reinforce them.

Ouyang Cheng wanted this effect, and hurriedly ordered the third battalion of infantry to rush to Fushan to reinforce and send reinforcements.

The flat-firing guns of one infantry company and artillery company intercepted the oni reinforcements on the outskirts of Toyama, and two infantry companies rushed to Toyama to defend the enemy, and quickly took the Toyama stronghold.

After taking the Toyama stronghold, the sailor brigade quickly pulled up a cable on the Ganjiang River, and the upstream engineer brigade put down a batch of wooden boats, and the sailor brigade carried the sappers to tie the boat to the cable to become the base of the pontoon bridge, and then transported a large number of bamboo rafts from the shore to lay on the wooden boats, and then used thick bamboo as columns to strengthen the support force, because it was necessary to ensure the smooth passage of tanks and armored vehicles.

The devil plane came to bomb, and the three battalions of the infantry who were escorted returned fire with a fire network composed of light and heavy machine guns, but unfortunately there were too few machine guns to form a real threat to the devil plane, and could only play a harassing role, but the goal was still achieved, and the devil did not dare to fly low, resulting in inaccurate bombing, and did not cause serious damage to the pontoon bridge.

After dark, Ouyang Cheng ordered the artillery brigade to launch an artillery bombardment of the county seat of Nanchang, and at the same time the armored brigade turned on the headlights and rushed to the county seat. For a time, there was artillery fire outside Nanchang County, and the devils were in a hurry.

Suddenly, the sound of Wu Mujun's artillery became more and more sparse, and the devil thought that Wu Mujun's shells had run out, and secretly rejoiced, but he didn't expect that Ke Hua had led the artillery brigade to cross the Ganjiang River westward, and then the special operations brigade, the anti-tank brigade, the cavalry brigade, and the sailor brigade crossed the Ganjiang River in turn, and then the armored brigade also withdrew across the Ganjiang River, and the three infantry battalions were broken and finally evacuated.

During the evacuation, the 3rd Infantry Battalion put 5 grenades into the wooden boats one by one and pulled out the safety pins, and then released the wooden boats to drift down the river to Nanchang City.

It turned out that Ouyang Cheng played a small trick to let the 1st Infantry Battalion, which was moving slowly, retreat to the Ganjiang River in the name of blocking reinforcements, and at the same time protect the retreat channel, covering up the intention of the Wumu army to retreat after a feint.

He Laifu took Jing Yukun to Changsha to report to Xue Yue and discuss joint operations, leaving Deputy Chief of Staff Wan Zixiong to lead the troops to temporarily stationed in Shangli.

Xue Yue couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Wu Mujun had sent tanks, armored vehicles, heavy artillery, anti-aircraft guns, Buddha light flying thunder and other heavy weapons, and he also felt the sincerity of Wu Mujun. He then discussed with He Laifu and asked the Wumu Army to deploy defenses in the area of Xiaohua Mountain, south of the Laodao River and northeast of Changsha, first, as a mobile attack force, taking advantage of strong mobility, ready to seize the opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the devils at any time, and second, once the battle is lost, it can also be used as a mobile garrison force to cover the northeast and east of Changsha. He Laifu naturally wants to be a guest, and he is as he pleases.

He Laifu telegraphed Wan Zixiong and took the troops to Xiaohuashan to assemble.

Wan Zixiong received the telegram and immediately urged Ouyang Cheng to lead his troops to follow up and rendezvous in Liuyang. While studying the battlefield situation, he found that the target in Changsha was too big and could be used as the front line of operations, but it was not suitable as a logistics base, so he left the joint logistics brigade in Liuyang for independent operations, and Qi Yuankai also deeply agreed.

One day later, the Ouyang Cheng Brigade caught up, Wan Zixiong handed over the command to Ouyang Cheng, and reported the joint logistics brigade to stay in Liuyang, Ouyang Cheng also agreed, and left the first infantry battalion with heavy casualties and casualties to stay in Liuyang as a reserve; sending special operations groups to fight behind enemy lines; The sailor brigade drifted down the Liuyang River to the vicinity of Nanchang City and stood by.

Garrisoned in Xiaohua Mountain, Wu Mu Army officially entered the combat sequence of the Ninth Theater of Operations, and it was able to get timely battle reports, bad news one after another, and the ** defense line was constantly broken through: the 3rd and 4th divisions of the devil broke through the main position of the **37th Army; The 6th Division and the 40th Division broke through the defense line of the 26th Army; The 4th Division and the Hayabuchi Detachment broke through the positions of the divisions of the 10th Army......

He Laifu, Jing Yukun, Ouyang Cheng and others kept asking Wan Zixiong, Liu Maoer, Liu Qinghe, Wang Laodun, Qi Yuankai, Ke Fei, Wu Zhen, Wang Ziwei, Niu Daojia, Liang Ruxiang and others to chat casually. It's not that He Laifu and the others are insensitive, including Xue Yue, they all know the outcome of the battle, but they don't break it.

There was no problem with Xue Yue's deployment, but all the troops could not complete the scheduled task, which made the battle situation clear - failure. It's not that the Chinese men are unwilling to use their lives, but that there are too many colors on the "top", and the unfair treatment leads to the fact that the upper and lower levels may not be concentric, and the different equipment leads to great differences in the combat effectiveness of the same level, and the difference in command ability can be made up for by the favor of the factions, and the descendants cannot lead the miscellaneous army, and the commander of the miscellaneous army cannot command the troops of the descendants...... What's more, the weaponry and the quality of officers and men are far from those of devils.

Sure enough, the devil quickly attacked the north bank of the Laodao River. Xue Yue ordered He Laifu to block the enemy on the north bank of the Laodao River with the ** troops and defend the periphery of Changsha.

He was rich and ordered, and immediately raised troops to the north. Niu Daojia's armored brigade crossed the Laodao River in the area of Xinqiao to meet the 4th Division of the Devils; Ke Hua's artillery brigade went out to Yaotou Mountain and covered the devils in the surrounding area of 7-10 kilometers with an extra-long firing range; Other troops are on standby.

Niu Daojia hadn't seen the devil yet, but Ke Hua opened it first. The artillery scouts telegraphed that the vanguard of the 3rd Division of the Devils had reached the Tangchong line, with 6 tanks, 9 armored vehicles and 1 squad of cavalry, followed by a large number of infantry.

He Laifu ordered Ke Hua's 9 mountain guns to shoot at Zhu Yuan to open fire at the mountain pass west of Tangchong as scheduled, 9 mountain artillery to fire at the vanguard of the devils south of Tangchong, 9 field artillery to fire at Zhu Yuan to the north of Tangchong to the Lishan road as scheduled, and Liang Ruxiang's anti-tank brigade sent 3 anti-aircraft guns to cooperate with 1 cavalry company of the Wumu Army to advance to Sunjiayuan and Shuiduping on the bank of the Laodao River to eliminate the vanguard of the devils.

Wu Zhen personally led a cavalry company and Liang Ruxiang's an anti-aircraft artillery company to advance at high speed to the predetermined location.

Originally, the vanguard of the devil was much closer to the bank of the Laodao River than Wu Zhen, and 1 tank was blown up by a sudden artillery bombardment, which delayed time, and when Wu Zhen arrived, he had just crossed the Laodao River.

Wu Zhen rushed towards the devil's armored cluster non-stop, and the devil hurriedly fired guns and cannons to block Wu Zhen's cavalry, but Wu Zhen's cavalry attack speed was not fast, but gathered and scattered, suddenly advancing and stopping, and running in a zigzag line, the hit rate was extremely low.

Wu Zhen, who is known for his trickery, of course, will not deal with the iron armor of the devil with the flesh and blood of the cavalry, he is buying time for the anti-tank anti-aircraft guns of the brigade.

1 red signal flare overtook the cavalry's line, the cavalry immediately spread out to the two wings, giving way to the direct fire of the anti-aircraft guns, the anti-aircraft shells fired at the tank armored vehicles, and all the devil tank armored vehicles were destroyed in less than 1 minute.

According to He Laifu's order, Wu Zhen led the cavalry and anti-charioteers to cross the Laodao River and continue to attack Tangchong.

Tang Chong's devil infantry also tasted the nourishment of Kehua's 12.34 kg mountain artillery shells, but there were only 2 or 30 rounds, more than 100 casualties, a large number of wounded soldiers were being treated, the corpses were set up on wooden piles by the corpse collection team to prepare for cremation, and the brigade still moved forward.

The devil saw the cavalry rushing over from a distance, and hurriedly launched a battle formation to defend on the spot, but the cavalry suddenly separated to the two wings, and the devil thought that the Chinese wanted to carry out two bread copies, so he hurriedly adjusted the formation, especially the light and heavy machine guns, but saw the anti-aircraft guns exposed in the front.

There were 3 or 400 rounds of anti-aircraft shells in 10 seconds, which was much more accurate than the heavy artillery just now, and the Chinese cavalry continued to kill, and the large amount of iron sand and anti-aircraft shells sprayed from the muzzle of the guns were equally terrifying.

The super firepower strike made the devil who had won all the way know the fear and quickly retreated. The anti-aircraft guns quickly advanced to deter the devils and cover the cavalry to clean up the battlefield.

The devils regrouped and planned to counterattack again, but they couldn't muster the courage in the face of the devilish anti-aircraft guns, so they could only stalemate there.

Wu Zhen is also in a dilemma, there is not much ammunition for anti-aircraft guns! Fortunately, a ** army drove up, and groups of soldiers rushed towards the devil, and Wu Zhen took advantage of the situation to retreat.

Just when Wu Zhen was rushing to kill with great interest, He Laifu sent a baggage company that came to transport ammunition and supplies to bring back the devil tanks, armored vehicles, and dead horses left by Wu Zhen. It is Wu Mujun's always style to have benefits!

Niu Daojia waited left and right and didn't see the devil, he wanted to continue to go forward but was strictly stopped by He Laifu. When he was bored, he saw a large number of ** flocking to him, and hurriedly telegraphed He Laifu.

He Laifu ordered Niu Daojia to only move forward with 2 tanks to stabilize the morale of the army and contact ** at the same time, and ordered them to build ambush positions in the mountains on both sides of Wuqiaoba and act as artillery observers at the same time.

Niu Daojia understood and immediately executed.

The devil's heel pursuit advanced, and was blocked by ** back horse pistol, so he could only rush out of the mountain pass, but when he saw ** retreating to the mountains on both sides, he hurriedly built an artillery position on the flat ground while pursuing to cover the infantry attack.

** Finally stabilized his position, took a breath, and immediately threw himself into the difficult block. These troops were severely fatigued and were close to running out of ammunition and food, and still resisted desperately.

At this time, Niu Daojia received an order to attack Wuqiaoba!

Niu Dao Jiale is crazy! 9 armored vehicles rushed into Wuqiaoba, 27 heavy machine guns sprayed tongues of fire and rampaged in the group of devils, ** took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the armored vehicles continued to move forward to block the devil reinforcements in the mountain pass.

Without waiting for the devils to be wiped out, Niu Daojia sent out a red signal flare, informing ** to quickly leave the battlefield and continue to clean up the remnants of the enemy by the retreating armored vehicles.

With the armored vehicles withdrawn, Niu Daojia put 18 tanks and 9 armored vehicles away, blocking the follow-up devils in the flat land of 4 or 5 square kilometers of Wuqiaoba.

The devils also quickly brought in rapid-fire guns and prepared to snipe tanks. The communicator next to Niu Daojia sent out a series of radio waves, and the shells broke through the air, and hundreds of 12.34 kg and 18 kg mountain artillery and field artillery shells exploded in the devil group, and the guns, residual artillery, and stumps and broken arms flew all over the sky, and the scene was quite spectacular! However, Niu Daojia didn't have time to admire, so he led his troops to Swan Mountain, where it is said that fierce battles were raging!

The ** rescued by Niu Daojia was evacuated to Fuyingchong according to Niu Daojia's guidance. He Laifu sent Wan Zixiong to meet the ** rout in Fuyingchong, and the horse bone soup and rice in the cauldron had already been prepared! **Officers and soldiers stuffed food into their throats with all their might, and they didn't know what it tasted like.

Seeing that the officers and soldiers were full of food and drink, and had a lot of spirits, Wan Zixiong ordered the troops to deploy defenses on the spot in the areas of Fuyingchong and Xinjiang Village to block the devils. ** The officers and soldiers entered the designated area without saying a word, but issued the fortifications that had already been built, and the important positions had been placed with Japanese-made light and heavy machine guns, mortars, grenadiers, a large amount of ammunition, and large pieces of horse meat!

**The regiment commander scolded: TMD, this Wumu army is too thief, if you don't enter the position, these guns, ammunition, and horse meat will be gone! Well, with such a force, it is worth dying in battle!
