The strength of the defenders suddenly surged. The devil of this squadron hit his head and broke the blood flow all of a sudden. One of the captains who led the team saw that he couldn't do anything, so he wisely chose to retreat temporarily.

The main defensive positions of the Seventh Brigade were in Zhoutou and Shengzhou, and in the middle of the two places were two auxiliary positions, Jiangxin Village and Scale. The Japanese army had already detected this, so the main forces of the attack were invested in the two directions of Shengzhou and Zhoutou at the beginning.

After a squadron of devils was repulsed, in the direction of Shengzhou, the pace of the Japanese army's attack slowed down all of a sudden.

"First take Cotton Boat Island, completely annihilate the defenders of Cotton Boat Island, and then attack the stronghold on the north shore of the fortress, be sure to take it before dawn, with these strongholds as a backing, we can continue to attack the stronghold on the south coast. At that time, the marines of the Yangtze River Fleet will cooperate with us in launching an attack from the upper reaches of the south bank...... "The general strategy of the Japanese army was determined by Okamura Ninji. The executors, Yamamuro Sotake and Yamada Joji, strictly followed the arrangement of Gangcun, and the 11th Division and the 112th Division invested heavy troops at the beginning, but at this time, most of their main forces were still floating on the river. Now on the Shengzhou River beach, the Japanese army has successfully landed only two brigades, and after establishing a beachhead, they immediately organized a squadron to launch a tentative attack, and then, of course, they were sniped by Qian Tailian.

The intensity of the previous Japanese artillery bombardment was too great, and the Japanese commander was also aware of this, so he had such a thought, thinking that the defenders had been wiped out in the shelling.

It was true that Chin Tai Lian suffered heavy casualties in the shelling. However, their will to fight was not broken. On the contrary, the sacrifice of their comrades made their fighting spirit even higher.

On the river beach, some reeds and bushes are still burning, and overhead, there are one flare after another. The Japanese army was really not good at night fighting, so they could only use a large number of flares to strengthen their courage. Their hearts, like those reeds, are burning with clusters of flames.

The arrival of the white tassels added enough fuel to these flames—the fighting power of the warriors exploded at once—and the Japanese retreated like a tide. The white tassel climbed to the edge of a huge crater, and then stood there scouting the enemy on the riverbank. Seeing the dense crowd of devils gathering on the river beach, and the river with more fishing boats passing by, she realized that it was impossible to stop the Japanese landing. It's a pity, at this time, if we had an artillery regiment! Thinking so, she immediately gave the order: "Brothers, from now on, we must save every bullet. The battle will be long, and staying alive and annihilating more devils is our only goal! From now on, no one is allowed to shoot without my orders! The correspondent quickly conveyed the order, and soon, the gunfire on the front-line positions in Shengzhou became sparse. The Type 92 heavy machine gun and the gunfire of the 38 big cover began to become the protagonist, and occasionally, the explosion of one or two grenades rang out.

"Brigade, come down, it's too dangerous up there!" Qian Tai said, climbing up and standing beside the white tassel.

"Thank you!" The white tassel jumped down, then sat down on the ground, and under the stunned gaze of a group of students, he began to wipe his two shell guns with a piece of gauze. To her left and right, two female soldiers, who were her personal guards, fiddled with a few magazines, and one asked, "Brigade seat, there are so many special bullets left." ”

The special bullet was processed by the white tassel himself in his spare time, and was characterized by a cross engraved on the warhead. Bai Tassel was originally good at throwing knives, but since she abandoned knives and guns, she began to continue her previous style, pursuing a one-shot kill. Then, by chance, after hearing about the special role of "Sam bullets" from a cadet at the Cadet Research Institute, she became obsessed with homemade evil bullets.

This kind of bullet, because it is too evil, she rarely uses it. And now that she's out all her inventory, she's clearly ready to fight to the death.

"Enough! I'm not going to spend a bullet! She said casually, stood up and picked up the gun with both hands and made a fancy gesture, inserted the gun into the holster, then took the cartridges, glanced at everyone and said, "Brothers, do you want to listen to the song?" ”

"Okay!" The surrounding students immediately shouted excitedly.

Qian Tai smiled stupidly: "Lvza, we are all your fans!" Brothers, you have a blessed day for everyone! ”

The white tassel smiled slightly, glanced in the direction of the fortress, and then sang: "Sunset, the red glow of the western mountains flies ......"

Sugio Takada's boat had already docked, and they waded down the water, soon finding an entrance and disappearing into the night.

This is the closest to the Scales, but the students there are being caught by a group of devils rushing up on the left, so no one notices their whereabouts.

Entering the dark environment, Takada took out the map from his pocket, and then looked at it carefully with a flashlight. As he looked at the map, the devil soldiers he brought with him scattered in all directions, and soon established a cordon on the perimeter. "This is it!" Gao Tian focused his eyes on a place marked with "3" about a kilometer southwest of Huangjiadun, and whispered to himself. Then, he put away the map and flashlight, whistled in a low voice, and took the lead in the direction of Huangjiadun.

Since Ouyang Yun and Chu Tiange slaughtered the Quartet in Tianjin, he has become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the Japanese. The Japanese have planned many assassinations against him, and even used Death Ju, but none of them succeeded. The successive failures made the Japanese finally lose hope for this. However, the silence of the Japanese secret service did not shake the determination of some hawkish officers to assassinate Ouyang Yun.

For example, Munetake Yamamuro. Yamamuro Sotake was fortunate to learn the details of the Battle of Tianjin through internal information, and after carefully studying the tactics of the Cadet Army at that time, he came to the conclusion that the defeat of the 108th Division was due to the fact that the command headquarters was prematurely terminated by the Cadet Army. If the 108th Division is compared to a person, then the headquarters is its head, the head is gone, although the body and limbs are still strong, but it has lost its unified command and control, and has become a plate of scattered sand, and its collapse is naturally inevitable.

Privately, when Yamamuro discussed the matter with a few friends, he said, "This tactic can be called decapitation." Ouyang Yun is tall! ”

As early as when he was ordered to attack Madang Fortress, Yamamuro proposed to Gangcun to organize an elite squad to behead Ouyang Yun and the headquarters of the Beishang Army, so that he could win the Battle of Madang at the lowest cost.

Gangcun did not absorb his opinion. Gangcun's reason was that the defense of Madang Fortress was too tight, and it was simply an impossible task to expect a small detachment to break through to the encirclement and penetrate deep into the core of Madang Fortress.

Yamamuro did not give up, so he took this opportunity to finally organize a death squad, wanting to repay the favor with his own way and successfully behead Ouyang Yun.

On the front line of Shengzhou, Qian Tai volunteered to serve as a lookout. He watched dozens of helmet shadows swaying up and down on the river beach eighty meters away, and realized that the little devil's new ** trend had begun, he turned around and shouted behind him: "Eighty meters!" ”

Cotton Boat Island originally had a river embankment, and the fortifications of the Seventh Brigade were built on the river embankment, but after the continuous high-intensity artillery bombardment, the river embankment has been cut by more than half of its height, and the fortifications on it are scattered, and it is unusable. The place where the white tassels are now guarded is located on the riverside side of the river embankment. Those huge craters happened to be the most ready-made fortifications.

"Wait!" The white tassel responded loudly.

Suddenly, a correspondent not far away, Qian Niu Mao, ran over and said, "Brigade seat, Brigade Commander Xu of the Eighth Brigade of Xuexue has asked to talk to you." ”

"Xu Feng?" The white tassel frowned and took over the microphone: "I'm the white tassel!" ”

"Brigade Commander Bai, I'm Xu Feng, I came to change guards with you on the order of the division, where are you now?"

"Changing guards? Master He's brain didn't get into the water, right? Now the Japanese are attacking in a big way? Changing the guard, isn't he afraid that this will cause a total rout of the front-line troops? Brigadier Xu, how many people did you bring? ”

Bai Tassel opened his mouth and scolded He Zheng's brain for entering the water, which made Xu Feng feel very awkward, and sighed in his heart that this little woman's domineering attitude was not obvious, he didn't show it on his face, coughed twice and said: "Brigade Commander Bai, the division has his own intentions in doing this, as subordinates, we just carry out the order." Please tell me your whereabouts, I have arrived at the cotton boat with the 304th regiment. ”

In order to seize the speed, the officers and men of the 304th Regiment all ran forward, and in 20 minutes they ran a distance of more than three kilometers, which was already a miracle.

In the case that the strength of the fortress was already nervous, Xu Feng actually brought a regiment of people, and Bai Tassel understood that they were actually in danger of their own safety. Her brows furrowed even tighter, she naturally understood that this was Ouyang Yun's arrangement, and not only was she not moved by it, but she was very disgusted. She thought for a moment and said sharply: "Brigade Commander Xu, I reiterate once again that I can't change guards with you now. If you are here to support, please go to Zhoutou, my contact with Deputy Brigade Commander Liu has been cut off, and I am worried that Zhoutou has been broken through. ”

"What? The continent has been breached? When was this? ”

There is also Shengzhou at the head of the continent as the outer defense line of the fortress on the north bank, and any breach of any place will cause the other place to be encircled by the Japanese army, resulting in the overall fall of the outer positions of the fortress. And once the outer positions fall prematurely, then the fortress will directly face the attack of the Japanese army, and at that time, the rear hand arranged by Ouyang Yun may be useless.

When the battle entered a tug-of-war, unless a covering artillery bombardment was carried out, the artillery units that had rushed back from Qianjiawan could only act as spectators.

The matter was serious, Xu Feng didn't dare to take it lightly, and immediately reported to He Zhengzhen. When He Zhengchuan heard the news, he personally contacted Liu Zheliang, and after waiting for five minutes and not getting a response, he could only order Xu Feng to abandon the original plan and go to Zhoutou instead to ensure that Zhoutou was not lost.

The battle situation on Cotton Boat Island suddenly became complicated.
