July 8, 1937, 2 a.m

-- Sha Gang

Shagang is the only commanding heights outside Wanping City, but because of its proximity to the Japanese garrison, in order to prevent conflicts with the Japanese army, although Shagang has garrisons, there are only two small outposts, and there is only one squad of troops inside. At this time, in the outpost, the soldiers were still asleep, and only two soldiers yawned and stood on the high ground outside.

A black shadow suddenly appeared behind a warrior, a knife light, this warrior kicked and kicked his legs and struggled, desperately trying to shout to remind his comrades, but a black hand covered his mouth and nose, so that he could only let out a low whine, and soon, the loss of blood made him lose his temperature. He became the first soldier to die in the all-out war of resistance.

The black shadow was a Japanese soldier, and the Japanese soldier waved his hand back, and more than a dozen black shadows followed behind. Another soldier was still dozing off in a daze at this time, and was also slashed by the Japanese soldier according to the gourd, the Japanese soldier pointed to the outpost, and more than a dozen black shadows nodded and pounced separately.

In just a few minutes, all the soldiers in the two outposts died in their sleep.

Setsuro Shimizu walked up to the sand hill, shook his head, looked at Mutaguchi and said, "Your Excellency, the weakness of the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army is unheard of, this is the commanding heights of Wanping, and there are only such a few defenders." ”

Yimu Qingzhi took the binoculars and looked at Wanping City not far away, and said, "In this case, let's go to the next city, you see such a good place, how can such an ignorant and weak nation be occupied." Your Excellency, what do you think? ”

Mu Tiankou Lian also smiled and said, "Our army now has garrisons in Tongxian, Shunyi, Changping, and Fengtai, and has semi-surrounded Beiping.

Although we have a small number of people, only more than 10,000 people, if you think about Zhang Xueliang back then, you know that the Chinese army only has the life of escaping in the face of us. Therefore, our next step should be to cut off the Pinghan line, that is, Wanping City and Lugou Bridge. Shimizu-kun, take your warriors to win more glory for the Japanese Empire. ”

-- At five o'clock in the morning on July 8, 1937, the position of the Dragon King Temple

Five o'clock in the morning is the most sleepy time for people, the sky is not yet bright, the Dragon King Temple is called back to the Dragon Temple, close to the Yongding River, is the first line of the Yongding River defense line, and the Japanese garrison is located in Dongxinzhuang is only less than two kilometers. Due to the military exercises with the Japanese army in recent months, the fortifications here have been built well. But there were only four or five forts, and most of the warriors were still in ordinary tunnel fortifications.

Garrisoned at the Longwang Temple was the 219th Company of the 3rd Battalion of the 11th Regiment. The third battalion is a reinforced battalion, with more than 10 light and heavy mortars and nearly 40 light and heavy machine guns. There are more than 1,400 people in the battalion.

Gao Xueli, the commander of the 11th company, stared at the dim field with wide eyes, although there are searchlights, but they can only illuminate a few places, today's weather is not bad, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and he has heard about what happened last night. This made him feel uneasy, the Japanese army went back too simply, but it was not normal, and now the outpost came to report that the Japanese army had begun to transfer reinforcements, and the soldier's sixth sense told him that the danger was imminent.

Suddenly, he noticed that something seemed to be moving in the field on his right, and he pulled the rope that connected the searchlight, pointing his hand in the direction of the field on the right. The rope was attached to the searchlight soldier's leg, and the soldier hurried to the field to the right, but found nothing.

Gao Xueli became even more uneasy, gritted his teeth and said to the machine gunner on the high platform next to him, "Hit a shuttle over there." "If there is nothing, in this tense situation, just for this, he will not be able to escape from a few days of confinement.

The Heavy was about to shoot with the Mark Core Heavy Machine Gun, when suddenly a gunshot rang out, and the Heavy had a small hole in his head, and his brain was gurgling out with blood. The fields on both sides poured out as if by magic, countless soldiers, who wore straw hats on their steel helmets and covered them, and rushed towards the Lugou Bridge in a straggler line, and there was a burst of mortar sound in the distance. The searchlight was blown up in one fell swoop, and the position was in chaos for a while.

"Enemy Attack !!" Gao Xueli shouted loudly, pushed away the body of the machine gunner, took the machine gun and swept it across the field, and the other soldiers also reacted and entered the position one after another to counterattack the Japanese army.

Setsuro Shimizu pulled out his command knife and pointed at Ryuoji and shouted, "Grenadiers!!" ”

The grenadiers who followed the infantry charge immediately arranged the artillery position, and bombed it in the direction of Gao Xueli, and when the smoke and gunpowder dissipated, Gao Xueli was already injured, and this was because the guards around him pressed him with his body, Gao Xueli looked at the guards who were still in the company commander just now, and the company commander shouted, and watched several soldiers who rushed to the heavy machine gun position were shot through the brain, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't stay in one place all the time, the little devil's marksmanship is good, change the fight." After speaking, he took the light machine gun in the arms of a dead soldier, changed places and shouted, "Hit, hit me hard." After yelling, he turned over and picked up a machine gun and fired another point, knocking over a Japanese soldier, and he didn't dare to stay longer, so he hurriedly bent down and moved to other places.

I have to say that the Japanese army at this time had a very high combat quality, both marksmanship and artillery skills were very accurate, and after a while, the 11th Company had killed and wounded more than 20 soldiers. Most of these fighters were also machine gunners.

Jin Zhenzhong, who had been sitting at the battalion headquarters, heard the sound of gunfire in the northeast, and when he walked out, it was in the direction of the Yongding River, Jin Zhenzhong shouted, "Everyone enters the combat position, contact the regiment commander immediately." ”

Where does Jin Zhenzhong need to inform Ji Xingwen, the current Wanping City, who doesn't know that there is a fight here.

The regimental headquarters of the 219th Regiment was located in the southwest of Lugou Bridge, close to Changxindian on the Pinghan Line. After Ji Xingwen received the news, he immediately ordered the first battalion gathered in Changxindian to enter a combat state, prepare to assist the third battalion, and the second battalion to enter a state of rest for the purpose of reserves.

At this time, the Dragon King Temple was already a sea of fire, Gao Xueli took the soldiers to dodge the artillery fire and grenadiers in the fortifications, due to the crazy penetration of the Japanese spies before the war, the firepower points of the position were touched, and the war was only half an hour. Half of the machine-gun points have been knocked out, leaving only the machine-gun points of the fortress struggling to support them. Gao Xueli's eyes turned red when he looked at it. He yelled at the signal soldier, "Go and report to the battalion commander that let our artillery counterattack, and if this continues, all the brothers will be named." ”

The communications soldier shook the phone frantically and shouted to the other side of the phone, "Request artillery support, request artillery support." ”

Mu Tian Kou Lian, who was in Shagang, also took a telescope and looked at the messy Dragon King Temple and said with a smile: "The Chinese army, but that's it." ”

Suddenly, I saw that the cannon sound in Wanping City was loud, and a string of shells smashed into the Japanese army that was charging forward, it was the light mortar unit deployed in Wanping City, Mu Taguchi Lian was also surprised and hurriedly looked at Wanping City, only to see that there were four or five heavy machine guns on Wanping City shooting at the Japanese army attacking the Dragon King Temple in the north, and for a while, the Japanese army was attacked from both sides.

This is not over, the heavy mortar company located in Shaguo Village, which is directly west of Lugou Bridge, also began to return fire, the Japanese soldiers in the sorghum corn field were bombed on their backs, countless corpse fragments and gun parts, stones and plants were lifted into the air and fell heavily by the artillery fire, Gao Xueli, who had been suppressed by the artillery fire for a long time, saw this opportunity and excitedly shouted, "Brothers, fight!" ”

The fighters of the 11th company immediately stood up, their long and short guns sticking out of their bunkers and firing fiercely.

Setsuro Shimizu's squadron, which was attacking this time, was defeated and retreated, and finally left dozens of corpses behind and retreated a mile away. Setsuro Shimizu looked at the somewhat frustrated soldier and said with a smile, "What's wrong with you?" It's just that a small stone appeared on the road, kick it away, everyone has breakfast now, and after eating, we will go and tell those China pigs. How to fight the war. ”

When the Japanese heard this, they shouted, "Hooray!" Banzai! ”

Mutaguchi Lian, who was in Shagang, also saw that the first charge ended in failure, and shouted to the artillery captain, "Immediately bombard the artillery positions in Wanping City." ”

Because Shagang is the commanding height, the situation of Wanping's defense is clear at a glance, the Japanese reinforcements did not carry heavy firepower such as mountain artillery due to the hurry, only carried the Type 94 90 mm light mortar, the firing range of this gun is 3800 meters, plus the condescending height of Shagang can easily hit a distance of more than 4,000 meters. And Shagang and Wanping City are only two kilometers, 94 mortars can completely cover Wanping City, this time Wanping City can suffer, the ninth company and light mortar company, heavy machine gun company stationed in Wanping City are hiding in the fortifications, casualties are not large, the Japanese army who is angry and angry simply hit the commissioner's office in Wanping City, and after a while, the commissioner's office was bombed to the ground, and the houses were also blown up a lot.

In order to prevent the situation from escalating, Qin Dechun, who received the news, dispatched Wang Lengzhai, administrative inspector of the Fourth District of Hebei Province and head of Wanping County, Lin Gengyu, commissioner of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Jicha Political Affairs Committee, and Zhou Yongye, deputy director of the Transportation Department of the Jicha Pacification Office, to negotiate with the Japanese representative Yingjing, the Japanese supply officer Sihei, and the secretary Saito. At the same time, he ordered the garrison troops to "defend the territory is the duty of the soldiers, and foreign wars are the honor of the soldiers, that is, to tell the officers and men of the regiment to sacrifice and struggle, and to hold the position, that is, to take Wanping City and Lugou Bridge as the grave of our army, and not to let people easily let people do it one foot at a time." (Historical Facts)"

Knowing that the 29th Army had the desire to seek peace, Mutaguchi also believed that only by beating the 29th Army could he gain in the negotiations, so he ordered Setsuro Shimizu to lead about 600 people with the 8th Squadron as the vanguard to continue the attack on the Ryuwangmiao position. He personally took the 7th Squadron and artillery units to sweep the formation in Shagang.

At this time, Jin Zhenzhong led the 10th Company and the security brigade in Wanping to rush to the Longwang Temple, and in order to hide people's eyes, they were all wearing straw clothes and straw hats. When they arrived at the Yongding River, a fierce battle broke out in the Dragon King Temple.

Sun Peiwu, the captain of the security brigade, hurriedly said, "Battalion Commander Jin, let's go up." ”

Jin Zhenzhong shook his head and said, "Wait, I understand the high company commander of the 11th Company, he can hold it, let's wait, wait for the Japanese army to be tired, and then rush forward and strive to defeat the devil once." ”

Gao Xueli of the 11th Company led the soldiers to resist the crazy attack of the Japanese army with the blockhouse fortifications, and Gao Xueli controlled a mark core from the pillbox to continuously sweep to the Japanese soldiers who were prostrate on the ground and shooting.

Because it was a long-range shooting, the advantage of the Japanese army's accurate shooting was immediately apparent, the machine guns of the 11th Company were difficult to attack because the Japanese troops were far away and separated, and the rifle shooting was difficult to shoot at the Japanese army due to the lack of training of the soldiers. ”

Sun Peiwu heard the sound of China's Czech-style rifle machine gun gradually disappearing, and couldn't help but hurriedly say, "Battalion Commander Jin, let's go." ”

Jin Zhenzhong shook his head and said, "The Eleventh Company will not be defeated so quickly, I will take a guard squad up, Captain Sun, you take everyone and wait for my news." ”

At this time, the light mortars of Wanping City had been completely suppressed by Shagang and could not support the Dragon King Temple, but the Japanese troops in Shagang were also attracted by Wanping and did not notice such a camouflaged lame army. Seeing that the counterattack of the Dragon King Temple was gradually weakening, Setsuro Shimizu excitedly shouted, "The whole army charges." ”

When Jin Zhenzhong touched the position, the Japanese army was already less than 200 meters, Jin Zhenzhong knew what Gao Xueli had in mind at a glance, and immediately ordered the follow-up troops to counterattack ten minutes after the start of the battle.

Jin Zhenzhong shouted "hit" and swept away his Bergman submachine gun, and for a time the entire position seemed to shoot out a large steel net, knocking the entire charging Japanese army to the ground.

I have to mention the equipment of the 29th Army, at this time the 29th Army is no longer like Xifengkou lack of guns and ammunition, get the entire Hebei, Beiping, Tianjin of the 29th Army has become a powerful local warlord, especially Tianjin has a large number of machinery and equipment, can make their own weapons and ammunition, to December 18, 1935 after the establishment of the Jicha Political Affairs Committee of the 19th Army rapidly expanded to five divisions, a total of 48 regiments, a total of more than 100,000 troops. Among them, Zhang Zizhong's 38th Division has five brigades, a total of 11 regiments, and nearly 30,000 troops. The equipment of the 29th Army was also impressive at this time. Soldiers generally used Czech-style rifles, the platoon commander used a German-style Bergman submachine gun, and the company commander each had a 20-round barge gun, and each squad was equipped with two grenadiers, two grenades, and a Czech light machine gun. The division is equipped with more than 700 light machine guns, more than double the 274 light machine guns established by the A Division of the Central Army.

Therefore, although it was only the strength of one company, the 11th company also had more than 10 machine guns, and although it had been blown up by half, the firepower network composed of six or seven light and heavy machine guns was not easy for the Japanese troops who were already close to less than 30 meters. Twenty or thirty people fell at once.

Setsuro Shimizu saw it but was not reconciled, and said to the grenadier squad that stayed behind, "Hit their fire, machine gun cover, and the others will charge to the death with me and kill !! ”

When Jin Zhenzhong saw that the Japanese army did not retreat but advanced, he knew that this was a decisive battle, and it would not be much of a problem to get through this position today, so he shouted, "Brothers, give me a stand-up, and our reinforcements will arrive soon." ”

At this time, Peng's voice and a grenade from a grenade hit Jin Zhenzhong's side, and Jin Zhenzhong was hit in the left arm by shrapnel, which almost made Jin Zhenzhong faint in pain. This bombardment knocked the machine guns to the point that only the four machine guns in the pillbox were still firing, and the other machine gun points were silent.

The Japanese army took the opportunity to rush to the position, Jin Zhenzhong pushed away Gao Xueli who ran and said, "Let the brothers rush up and entangle them, the tenth company and the security team will come up immediately, fight with them, and tell these little devils that they are still a little short of hand-to-hand combat." ”

Although the weapons of the 29th Army have been changed all over again, they still retain the broadsword of Xifengkou, Gao Xueli nodded, pulled out the broadsword on his back, jumped out of the bunker and shouted, "Brothers, give it to me!" ”

Most of the troops of the 29th Army are from the northeast and northwest, and the people in these places are fierce, and hand-to-hand combat has always been a strong point, and I saw that most of the Japanese troops formed a three-person team, and the soldiers looked at the Japanese squads in a back-to-back formation, and the experienced ones all cooperated with each other, or five or six people, one person resisted, one person attacked closely, and the others entangled other Japanese troops. A three-person squad was solved in a few moves.

But more often than not, they were killed by the Japanese army's three-person small formation, after all, the 29th Army had a serious expansion, and many fighting skills were insufficient. From time to time, you can also see the soldiers of the two armies who killed the red eye die together or pull a grenade to explode.

But after all, there were many Japanese soldiers, and after seven or eight minutes, the 11th Company was already a little unbearable, and then the 10th Company and the security team finally rushed up, and the light machine gunners were placed on both sides, and the advantages of the accurate shooting of the Czech light machine gun were suddenly revealed, and the Japanese troops who were still behind were cut in two, and the 10th Company and the security team took long and short guns and beat the Japanese soldiers who were still fighting, and Setsuro Shimizu could only watch the nearly 100 people who had rushed up like ducks and were driven down and then beaten to pieces.

Sun Peiwu led the people and said happily, "Brothers, kill me!" As he spoke, he rushed out of the position with people and chased after the Japanese army.

Kim Jin-jung saw it and shouted, "Come back!" Give me all back. ”

Mu Taguchi Lian, who was in Shagang, also saw that the 29th Army actually rushed out of the bunker, and said with great joy, "All aim, shoot." ”

The mortar gunner immediately adjusted the gun position, and more than a dozen shells smashed into the charging soldiers' pile, and Setsuro Shimizu also commanded heavy machine gun fire to drive the 29th Army that rushed out again.

Jin Zhenzhong was speechless, seeing that Sun Peiwu was about to flee back, and was about to curse, a cannonball smashed in front of them, and Sun Peiwu and Jin Zhenzhong fell down with blood.
