Liu Cheng, as a captain and company commander of the 124th Division of Sun Zhen's Department of the Sichuan Army, was composed of the 41st Army of Sun Zhen's Division and the 47th Army of Li Jiayu's Division, with a total of 6 divisions and about 60,000 people. They set out from Chengdu and entered Henan through Shaanxi through Hanzhong. The 23rd Group Army on the South Road, with the 21st Army (Tang Shizun) and the 23rd Army (Pan Wenhua) under Liu Xiang's command, had a total of about 670,000 people in five divisions and two brigades, starting from Chongqing and entering Henan through Hubei. Then the two Sichuan armies met in the Seventh War Zone and fought together against Japan under the leadership of Liu Xiang.

・On September 1, 1937, Yang Sen led his troops from Guizhou, trekked on foot, and completed a 50-day journey in 24 days to reach Chenxi, Hunan; Then he took a car and boat to Shanghai, and then threw himself into the Songhu Anti-Japanese War.

In the first stage of the Battle of Songhu, ** attacked first, but failed to annihilate the Japanese marines stationed in Shanghai and took the lead. After that, the Japanese army increased its troops, and the two sides formed a stalemate, and the initiative gradually shifted to the Japanese army. The Japanese army invested about 200,000 troops, 200 heavy artillery, 300 aircraft, and 70 warships, and had an advantage in firepower, thus turning the war into a slaughter under the fire net. ** Desperately persevered for three months, and finally collapsed on all fronts. It was a battle, 700,000**, and the casualties amounted to 150,000.

At this time, the Japanese army had already gained the initiative and opened a killing spree on the Songhu battlefield; **Although 700,000 people were gathered, they could only face the superiority of the Japanese army's firepower and fill the line of fire. If you go up to a division, you won't be able to fight for a few days and it will be crippled, so you can withdraw it and replace it with another one. The battle was fierce.

The company led by Liu Cheng in the first stage of the Songhu battlefield, went up for an hour and a half, withstood the Japanese two charges, the Sichuan army's weapons were not good, so they took a big blade and the Japanese army hand-to-hand, how do you know that the Japanese army's assassination skills are excellent, the company led by Liu Cheng was almost wiped out, when the crisis was in danger, it was still those Sichuan babies who were not afraid of death, and the grenades on their bodies were killed with the little Japan, so that they could repel the attack of the Japanese army, and the full company of more than 140 people, there were only 23 people left, almost everyone was wounded, It had to be taken down to rest.

After this period of replenishment, Liu Cheng's company finally recovered to more than 80 people, and all the weapons and equipment were replaced with brand-new 38 covers, and at the same time, two light machine guns and one heavy machine gun were also divided, and the ammunition was enough, and the original weapons in his hands could only be used as a fire, and the Japanese army at this time was not as arrogant as before, but was surrounded in Changzhou City, listening to his commander, a young German Chinese who commanded this battle, in front of him, small Japan only had the share of passive beating, Liu Cheng, as a low-level officer, could not manage the upper echelons, Only use your own life to complete the task assigned by the commander.

Yesterday Liu Chengcheng received an order, today will be the vanguard of the 124th Division of the Sichuan Army, from the north of Changzhou to attack, Liu Cheng is a native of Sichuan, when he went out of Sichuan, the troops brought a large number of pepper noodles and pepper noodles, the entire 124th Division brought at least about 2,000 catties, this is not Liu Cheng last night had an idea, collected the iron tube of the Japanese canned food that the troops ate, and specifically asked the division commander for some explosives and pepper noodles and pepper noodles, and mixed the pepper noodles and pepper noodles together. Stir-fry the chili noodles and peppercorn noodles with a small amount of vegetable oil to make them full of spicy and numb flavor, and then mix them with explosives and put them into canned cones, press the fuse, and a simple, primitive, and fully ecological tear gas pepper bomb is completed, the number is about five hundred, and each soldier is divided into six.

At 8 o'clock in the morning of January 1, 1938, the Sichuan army pulled out a few artillery pieces that they could concentrate and the heavy artillery supported by their superiors, and there was a fierce bombardment on the block in front of Liu Cheng, and the mountain shook in an instant, and the block in front of Liu Cheng was full of shell explosions, and there were bursts of gunsmoke, countless houses collapsed, and some wooden houses were shot and caught fire.

After fifteen minutes of artillery bombardment, the loud charge horn sounded, maybe the artillery just now was too fierce, Liu Cheng and they were not attacked before entering the city, when Liu Cheng entered the block with more than eighty brothers, the real bloody battle began.

"Dada...... Da Da ......"

The Japanese machine guns rang out, and the two fighters who rushed to the front fell silently, blood running down their bodies and staining the streets below them.

"Hurry up, there is another little devil machine gun on the second floor on the left, Tie Niu, your turtle son will bring a few brothers to get rid of the little devil's machine gun for me."

Five big and three thick iron bulls, just three sticks can't hit a fart, a lot of bull energy, without saying a word, with their own squad of 8 fighters began to touch a house on the left, and before they could move the house, a house on the right and another machine gun came out, the three soldiers behind the iron bull fell in a pool of blood, and the iron bull was also suppressed in a ruin, unable to move.

Liu Cheng was in a hurry, and hurriedly ordered the other machine gun team to suppress the Japanese firepower, and the barrage formed by the machine guns on both sides pulled out strings of sparks in the air, which was a death spell, and Liu Cheng personally led people to throw four pepper bombs at the window of the Japanese army.

"Boom ......"

The sound of the explosion was very low, and when I heard it, I knew that the power was insufficient, but the smoke produced was particularly large, and the pepper noodles and peppercorn noodles that had been fried in vegetable oil were ignited by the high temperature of the explosives in the explosion, and the smoke produced was even more surprisingly large, and even more pungent, even Liu Cheng, who was dozens of meters away, smelled a little smoke, and coughed fiercely and burst into tears. And the little devils hiding in the room are even more unbearable, either holding their necks with both hands or wiping their eyes with both hands, but the more they wipe their eyes, the more stinging they become, more than a dozen devils in ambush in the building, ghosts cry wolves and drop their weapons, and run out of the house with rolling and crawling, but what awaits them is Chinese machine guns and bayonets, these dozen devils are either beaten into a sieve or skewered into "mutton skewers" by bayonets.

Liu Cheng continued to advance, but there are always devils' black guns that take the lives of their brothers, this is the cruelty of street fighting, you must use human life to probe the deployment of the other party, and then find a way to destroy the enemy, Liu Cheng took his brothers just walked not far, he encountered the mortar attack of the devil, several brothers fell to his side, Liu Cheng was also scratched by shrapnel, the devil's cannon is gone, it has long been eliminated by the air force, and there are many mortar devils, in the street battle, as long as the power of the mortar is used well, it is also very lethal.

Liu Cheng could only let the brothers scatter, move forward step by step, and found that the enemy was waiting for pepper bombs, and waiting for the enemy to run out of the house was waiting for machine guns and rifles, Liu Cheng advanced about 300 meters throughout the morning, and eliminated more than 100 devils, and when his company of more than 80 people went to the battlefield, there were 18 people left, Liu Cheng himself was also taken away from his legs by the little devil's mines, Liu Cheng survived, and the more than 60 Sichuan army brothers fell forever on the hot land they cared for, and the people's heroes were immortal, Heroes who died in the fight against aggression are immortalized!!

Several German divisions commanded by Zhang Jun were much smoother under the coordinated attack of a large number of tanks and infantry, and the infantry hid behind the tanks, and as soon as they found the enemy, they were smashed by a burst of shells, of course, there were sacrifices, but they were definitely not as high as the sacrifices of the Sichuan Army, and the attack troops without tanks were basically filling with human lives, using absolute numerical superiority to consume the Japanese army, and the entire Changzhou City was bleeding and trembling, there was the blood of heroes, and there was also the blood of dirty invaders.

By noon, Zhang Jun asked the soldiers to temporarily stop the attack, and prepare to continue the encirclement and suppression after eating, at this time the squadron had captured one-third of the urban area of Changzhou City, and believed that the remaining Japanese troops could be completely wiped out tomorrow. However, a telegram poured Zhang Junlei down, and it was a telegram of inquiry sent by Jiang Zhongzheng, saying that the Japanese army had complained to the League of Nations, saying that China had used prohibited "biological and chemical weapons", and that the Japanese army had suffered heavy casualties.

The mediation office of the Shanghai League of Nations, which was the predecessor of the United Nations and was completely controlled by the Western powers, was sent by the Western powers to mediate the Sino-Japanese war. Kill the heroic emperor.

The Chinese delegate sat in a corner and was silent, because the League of Nations had long banned the production and use of "chemical weapons", and if it was really the Germans who openly used "biological and chemical weapons" for the sake of victory, China would have fallen into a very passive situation.

The Chinese deputy's whole body was relaxed and his waist was straight, and when the Japanese delegate finished appealing, the Chinese delegate came to the stage to defend himself.

"Distinguished gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Leader of the Mediation Group of the League of Nations, first of all, let me ask a question, Changzhou City is in that country."

The head of the mediation team, an American in his fifties, did not hesitate to answer the questions of the Chinese representative:

"In China, of course."

"Thank you, Changzhou City is a city in China, so the Japanese army is now in Changzhou City, are they invited by us? Of course not, they came with guns, they are the naked aggressors, and our heroic ** is protecting their own land with their lives, every inch of rivers and mountains and every inch of blood, as for the Japanese representative's accusation that we use biological and chemical weapons, it is completely groundless, now I will show what they are talking about biological and chemical weapons. ”

After speaking, the Chinese representative took out two Japanese canned food cones from his bag, and the Japanese characters on the iron cones were clearly visible, and there was a fuse on them. The representative of China passed one to the head of the mediation team and the other to the representatives of the following countries.
