At half past two in the afternoon, the 36th Wing of the Japanese Army began to cross the river to attack.

About two squads of the Yue army took the lead in crossing the river in more than a dozen small fishing boats and went straight to the Jingjiang wharf in Jiangbei; less than half an hour later, the two forward squads of the Yue army had already approached the Jiangbei wharf, and the main force of the Zhongchuan Wing of the Yue army also boarded the big boats one after another and rushed towards Jiangbei with great momentum.

Niu Dagen really wanted to fire a few cannons to prevent the Yue army from crossing the river.

However, Yue Weihan never gave an order, mortars are used to hit dense infantry formations or large fixed targets, and the lethality is still good, but if it is used to hit moving targets on the river, the hit rate will not be seen, and there are not many shells in the artillery company, and good steel must be used on the blade, and it cannot be consumed indiscriminately.

Of course, if there were war defense artillery, Yue Weihan would never mind sinking the little devil's ferry in the middle of the river.

It's a pity that the two anti-aircraft guns of the Baoshan battalion could not be brought out, and when the Sixing warehouse broke through, due to the inconvenience of carrying, they were all blown up along with the Makqin and Type 92 heavy machine guns.

On the river, the two forward squads of the Yue army were already close to the north bank.

The tactics of the army are very simple, that is, to seize the dock with two forward squads first, to clear the obstacles for the large army to go ashore, once the large army can go ashore smoothly and quickly launch an attack formation, then there is really no suspense in this battle.

Yue Weihan did not deploy troops on the docks.

The reason is very simple: The Jingjiang wharf protrudes nearly 100 meters from the river bank, and it is not covered up; if the troops are placed on it, they will be besieged from three sides by the troops crossing the river, and with the combat effectiveness of the Zhongchuan Wing of the Chinese army, as many people as they put on the wharf will be sent to death; this move will not only fail to prevent the Yue troops from going ashore, but may also seriously dampen the morale of the Baoshan regiment because of the huge casualties.

Of course, Yue Weihan would not do this kind of absolutely loss-making business.

When the forward team of the Yue army was still forty or fifty meters away from the Jingjiang wharf, the heavy machine guns on the top of the hill took the lead in firing, and the four Makqin heavy machine guns frantically poured bullets on the river at a rate of six or seven hundred rounds per minute, causing water to splash on the surface of the river, and the dozen or so devil soldiers squatting on the bow of the boat were immediately beaten into a sieve.

However, the Nakagawa United team is worthy of being the elite wing of the permanent division, and the tactical literacy is indeed excellent, and the counterattack is even sharper.

Most of the devil soldiers quickly jumped into the icy river, pushing the boat forward while swimming in the water, and a small number of devil soldiers lay down in the cabin vacated by their companions, set up their light machine guns and grenadiers and began to counterattack, only to hear a few muffled tom tom toms, and a row of grenades had already whizzed towards the hill on the right.

A few seconds later, several huge red lights erupted on the hill on the right, and mud shot out in all directions, and then the heavy machine gun on the top of the mountain was dumb, Yue Weihan raised his binoculars to take a look, only to see that the two Maxims on the mountain had been overturned, and the shooter and the deputy shooter had been blown to the ground.

Yue Weihan estimated that the two Makqin heavy machine guns were only overturned by the air wave generated by the explosion, and as long as they were held up, they could continue to fire, but the problem was that the shooters and deputy shooters in the heavy machine gun position had all been stacked down by the explosive fragments, and the surname of the little devil grenade was really not blown, and it was at least forty-eight petals in one explosion.

"Damn, this little devil's grenadier is really good!"

Yue Weihan couldn't help frowning when he saw this, he knew that this little devil's grenadier could hit accurately, and when he was in Baoshan, he had also seen the power of the 68th Wing, almost nine out of ten shots within five hundred meters, but the 36th Wing was on the ship, and it could actually hit so accurately, and one salvo killed the heavy machine gun position on the right hill, which was really fucking evil.

Hua Hanlin also gasped and said, "The devil's little cannon is really getting more and more accurate." ”

Before the words fell, the devil's grenadier fired two rounds of tom, and the two Makqin heavy machine guns on the hill on the left side suddenly stopped, and the heavy machine gun positions on the top of the mountain on both sides were terminated one after another, and the pressure on the army was suddenly reduced a lot, and the advance speed of the fleet also suddenly accelerated, and it rushed to the dock in less than a moment.

"No, you can't let the little devil gain a foothold on the docks!"

Yue Weihan threw the telescope as he spoke, then stretched out his hand and pulled out the two box cannons inserted in the armed belt, and shouted loudly, "Guard Company, assemble!" ”

"Tuanza, I'll go!" Hua Hanlin grabbed Yue Weihan and raised his arms and roared, "Guard Company, follow me!" ”

Before the words fell, Hua Hanlin had already rushed out of the command headquarters with agility like an ape, and the guards who had been waiting outside for a long time suddenly blew like the wind towards the Jingjiang Wharf a few hundred meters away, and Cao Xinglong next to him said in a hurry when he saw this: "Tuanzao, let's let the 1st battalion go up?" I'm afraid the strength of the guard company is not enough. ”

Yue Weihan waved his hand and said coldly: "The 1st Battalion is the general reserve, and it must not be moved when it is less than 100,000 urgent!" ”

"Hey!" Cao Xinglong slammed his fist on the sandbag, and immediately picked up the binoculars to observe the battle situation outside.

At this time, the two forward squads of the Yue army had already launched an attack formation, because all the buildings on the pier had been demolished by the Baoshan regiment in advance, and there was no cover on them, so the Yue army could not find a bunker and actually managed to lift the ferry boat onto the pier, and then used the hull as a cover to push forward, while shooting at the Baoshan regiment.

The two infantry squads of the Yue Army are indeed very powerful, but they are at an absolute disadvantage compared with the Baoshan Regiment in terms of strength and firepower, especially the dozen or so light machine guns on the positions of the 1st and 2nd Battalion of Baoshan, which caused the entire wharf to splash sawdust, causing great casualties to the Yue Army.

Moreover, the light machine gun is not heavy machine gun, the heavy machine gun is too bulky, it is difficult to transfer, it is easy to be locked by the devil's grenadier and killed, but the light machine gun can run away with it, as long as the devil's grenade hits, the veteran who heard the wrong sound will immediately hold the machine gun and quickly transfer, this time the devil's grenadier is more accurate, the lethality is also sharply reduced.

However, even so, the two forward squads of the little devils are still pushing forward fearlessly, and their purpose is very clear, that is, to occupy the entire bulge where the dock is located before the arrival of the follow-up large army, so that the large army can quickly go ashore through the dock and quickly launch an attack in formation.

If the main force of the Nakagawa Wing is allowed to successfully launch an attack formation on the north bank, then the Baoshan regiment on the opposite side will definitely be finished!

Even if the Zhongchuan Wing only has half a wing and less than 2,000 people at this time, it is still a piece of cake to defeat the more than 3,000 defeated soldiers of the Baoshan Regiment in a head-to-head duel!

Yue Weihan also saw this clearly, so he ordered Hua Hanlin to lead the guard company to launch a decisive counterattack, and at any cost to drive this forward team of the Yue army back into the river, so that after the large army of the devils arrived, they could not quickly land from the dock, and unless they withdrew, the Yue army could only launch an attack formation on the river beaches on both sides.

Once the army is forced to spread out on the river beaches on both sides, then the battle will be easy to fight, and the silt on the river beach will become the biggest enemy of the Yue army, and the soldiers who are stuck in the mud will become the best shooting targets!

Soon, Hua Hanlin's guard company rushed to the riverside, and quickly launched a charge formation to crush the forward squad of the Yue army at the top of the protrusion, the guard company is the guard unit next to Yue Weihan, it is a reinforced company with four infantry platoons, there are more than 200 people, this guy charged, the momentum is really not small.

However, the forward team of the Japanese army was not affected at all, except for a few grenadiers that were still suppressing the machine guns on the opposite hill, the four crooked handles and all the three or eight big covers all turned to the charging formation of the guard company in unison, and the guard company soon suffered casualties, and the number of casualties was increasing at an alarming rate!

When Cao Xinglong was in a hurry, a crisp gunfire suddenly sounded in his ears, and a machine gunner of the army forward team fell in response, and when he looked back in shock, he saw Yue Weihan pulling the bolt with an indifferent expression, raising his hand and firing another horn, and the second crooked machine gun of the devil forward team was also dumb.

At this time, more than a dozen light machine guns of the 1st and 2nd Baoshan Battalions were no longer hiding in the province, but concentrated their firepower to frantically suppress the firepower of the Japanese army on the dock, all just to cover the decisive charge of the guard company.

On the riverside, Hua Hanlin is leading the guard company to charge to the death, since it is a charge, then there is no need to dodge and dodge, let alone stop and release the gun, shooting to cover is the business of other battalions and companies, the task of the guard company is one word, rush! Rush forward as fast as you can and mingle with the enemy!

As for the enemy's guns, it's up to everyone's luck!

Anyway, there are only two of them, if you can't rush up, you will definitely die, and if you rush up, maybe you will still live!

After paying nearly a third of the casualties, the guard company finally approached the forward team.

"Brothers, kill!" Hua Hanlin roared hoarsely as he ranched, and the officers and soldiers of the guard company following behind immediately howled, all of them were like wild wolves that smelled blood, and they all grinned and showed their fangs, and their expressions were even more hideous.

The forward team of the Yue Army on the opposite side is still as calm as a mountain.

It wasn't until the last row of guns was fired that the commander of the army suddenly pulled out his saber and raised it high, and the devil soldiers who were originally half-kneeling on the ground and raised their guns to shoot took out their bayonets and stuck them on the rifles, and then pulled the bolt back and pulled the bullets out, and then the commander of the army pulled the saber forward fiercely, and finally the remaining more than 60 devil soldiers suddenly howled like beasts, and pounced viciously at the guard company with their bayonets.
