Historically. The 29th Army also built pillboxes, but because of the poor selection of positions and the improper allocation of troops, the two pillboxes did not play any role. And these four bunkers in Wanping City, because they choke the only two entrances to Wanping City, play a great role.

It can be seen from the deployment of Japanese troops that they are also quite afraid of the pillboxes on both sides of the Lugou Bridge, and selectively carry out artillery bombardment to cover the infantry attack. It is undeniable that the continuous shelling did have a certain effect, although the shells did not cause much damage to the pillbox and the personnel inside, but the explosion and smoke caused by it affected the soldiers' reaction ability and sight. However, they seem to have forgotten that the defenders also had artillery, and that their artillery was no worse than the others. Another crucial point is that Wanping is the garrison of the Xuebing Army after all, and the defenders have already completely mastered the surrounding shooting Zhuyuan, so after the little devil's artillery has been powerful for about ten minutes, there is also a rumbling cannon sound in Wanping City.

The commander of the little devil artillery was a captain named Hiraki Akihiro. As soon as Qiu Hongpingshu heard the sound of cannons in Wanping City, he immediately felt that something was wrong, and when the sound of those cannonballs breaking through the air came to his ears, with experience, he immediately judged the landing point of the cannonballs, and couldn't help shouting in horror: "Quick!" Shift, shift positions! ”

His scream fell, the sound of the cannonball breaking through the air was already close to his ears, he clenched his hands hard, cursed hatefully "eight grids", and then threw himself headlong on the ground in front of him.

"Boom!" A series of explosions rang out, but the difference was that this time the attacking and the attacked sides switched roles.

Wang Deshui was lying on the firing port at this time and looking outside, and when he saw the fire from the artillery position of the little devil in the distance, he was happy, and then ordered: "Woodkai, fire the flare!" Brothers, it's a battle! ”

Woodkay had been staying on the top floor of the bunker, and when he heard Wang Deshui's order, he quickly fired a flare into the sky, and at the same time, a flare also rose from the bunker opposite.

As soon as the two flares rose into the air, the devils on the bridge deck of the Lugou Bridge had nothing to hide. This team of devils was originally aggressive, and the team leader Matsushita Fumura swore before the expedition: We must double the humiliation in the battle of Tianjin. However, when the artillery positions of the other side were shrouded in flames, the previous arrogance of this group of devil soldiers was extinguished by three points. Just when they felt a certain amount of psychological pressure, the appearance of the two flares rising from the left and the right pressed another stone on their hearts. The Japanese army is not good at night fighting, which has some connection with their perverted psychology. No matter how fierce they shout, no matter how cruel they behave, on the other hand, it just proves the cowardice hidden in their hearts. Two flares illuminated the surroundings of the Lugou Bridge as bright as day, and Wang Deshui and Gong Bihai took advantage of the light to see that the devils on the bridge were only fifty or sixty meters away from them, and immediately gave the order to open fire without hesitation.

"Da ......" The heavy machine gun and the light machine gun roared together, and the flames spit out from the muzzle shone on the firing port, and from a distance, there seemed to be a lot of red flowers blooming on the stone bunker. Along with these bright red flowers, there are small orange-yellow flowers that light up next to them.

"Hit!" "Beat me hard!" Wang Deshui held a Weiqing-style assault rifle and shot at the little devil who was already lying on the ground on the bridge.

As soon as the gunshots rang out, the group of devils lay down, and many of them were smart and quickly rolled to both sides of the bridge. It's just that since there are commanding fire points on both sides of the bridge, no matter how they move, they can't escape the condescending fire roll.

The battle only lasted for a quarter of an hour or so, and more than half of the devils of that squad were killed and wounded, and seeing the flares constantly flying on the pillboxes on both sides, as if the bullets didn't cost money, Hirano Ikehide couldn't stand his strength, so he had to give the order to retreat.

In the farewell gunfire organized by Wang Deshui and Gong Bihai, only seven of the devils of this squad finally fled back to the western bridgehead, of which two were seriously injured and one was lightly injured.

The artillery unit of the Japanese has not been able to make a sound since it was attacked by the artillery of the 002 regiment in Wanping City, and the accuracy of the artillery strike of the Xuebing Army is really amazing. Eight 74-millimeter field guns, as well as more than a dozen mortars of various calibers, were all destroyed after several rounds of shelling, and they did not even make a single response. Looking at the damaged cannons, as well as the corpses of his subordinates who were missing arms and legs on the scrap metal side, Qiu Hong raised his head and set his eyes on Wanping City, which stood in the night in the distance. The two flares rose almost at the same time, illuminating Wanping City and the Lugou Bridge in front of it. Suddenly, the two pillboxes on both sides of the Lugou Bridge bloomed at the same time, spewing out numerous flames. The next moment, he saw the scene of his compatriots being knocked down and torn apart by bullets - the pillboxes of the Chinese army began to exert their might, there was no threat of artillery fire, and there was no way to take the pillboxes with the 38 big covers and grenadiers of the infantry, so it was easy to guess what would happen next - "Isn't our army the second strongest army in the world?" One of our squadrons can get hundreds of thousands of Northeast Army chickens and dogs to jump and flee in embarrassment, now, how can there be no way to take this small cadet army? Qiu Hongping thought stupidly, an unprecedented feeling of failure swayed him, and he looked back in the southeast direction, where there was his homeland, by his lover, by his parents. However, he knew that he would never see them again, and what he could predict was that not only him, but many more of his compatriots would not be able to return to their relatives - the Japanese army was never invincible, and we were invincible for a time, just because we had not yet met a real opponent! With this realization in mind, Qiu Hong pulled out the military thorn from his waist, held the handle with both hands, then closed his eyes and stabbed it into his chest and abdomen.........

Seeing that only seven soldiers in a squad had survived, Hirano Chihide's face was stunned, and after a while, he howled like a mad dog: "Artillery! Artillery! And what about artillery? ”

In Hirano Chihide's battle plan, artillery occupies a very important position - the two pillboxes built by the Cadet Corps on the Lugou Water are too tricky, if there is no artillery fire to cover the firing ports on the pillboxes, let alone a small team, even if his squadron is all on board, it is impossible to break through.

"Squadron leader, the artillery unit is completely annihilated!"

"Eight squares! What's going on? Call this bastard Akihiro Hiraki for me! ”

After a long time, the little devil who was ordered to find Qiu Hong Pingshu ran over, and in the faint light, he whispered: "Squadron leader, Captain Qiu Hong committed suicide!" ”
