The darkness of the night scattered a high ground of low houses, and a large bamboo forest was hidden by the fish pond, swaying and rustling in the night breeze.

The people of Daqiao Village had already withdrawn, and the remnants of the defeated Pingshan Brigade occupied this place and seized two slightly higher places outside the village.

Most of the officers and men of the reserve battalion of the Northern Jiangsu Corps were formed by the reorganization of the Huaiyin local armed forces, and they have not participated in a vicious battle in a decent manner since the retraining.

Their appearance on the battlefield became the last straw that crushed the devil soldiers, the devils who fought hard for a day could no longer hold on, and retreated one after another, and the brothers in the reserve battalion fought a good battle to chase the devils, once the devils began to play with their lives, they were not the opponents of the devil soldiers if their combat effectiveness was a big difference with the devils.

The captain of the devil brigade, Hirayama Kei, retreated to Ohashi Village with the remnants and prepared to regather the troops, and the brothers of the reserve camp chased them all the way here.

The excited brothers had just seen the Shura battlefield after the bloody battle between the brothers of the main force of the Northern Jiangsu Corps and the devils, and those brothers who fought bloodily and never retreated gave great encouragement to the officers and soldiers of the reserve battalion and made their blood boil.

So after seeing the devil retreat to this storage village, he immediately launched an attack with a roar, but several waves of charges were pressed back by the devil, which instead allowed another group of defeated devils to break into the village from the flank, enhancing the strength of the devil soldiers in the village.

Now that the remnants of the devils have regained their foothold in Daqiao Village, the brothers of the reserve battalion, who lacked weapons and equipment to attack the fortifications, had to send people to surround them first, while the others scattered to hunt down the other scattered devils.

The devil soldiers had a good defensive ability, and after occupying Daqiao Village, they quickly pushed the wall and dug holes, turning these houses into strong fortresses, and repelled the attack of the reserve battalion of the Northern Jiangsu Army.

Although the devils have now stabilized their positions in the village and can take a breath, their situation is not optimistic.

An infantry brigade full of more than 1,000 people was completely crippled in just one day and one night, which was something that the captain of the devil brigade, Hirayama Kei, couldn't figure out.

Although the village is temporarily safe, the road leading from the village to the outside world has been blocked by the officers and soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Corps setting up machine guns, and sporadic gunfire is still coming from afar, which is the search force of the Northern Jiangsu Corps clearing out the remnants of the enemy.

Those devil stragglers who were extremely tired after a hard day of fighting were not as lucky as their captain Hirayama Kei, who retreated in time when they saw that the situation on the battlefield was not right, and seized the village as a foothold.

Those devilish stragglers were no longer capable of continuing to fight in the face of the fresh forces that the Northern Soviet Army had thrown into the battlefield, and the only thing they could do was to drag their exhausted bodies back.

However, the nearby ditches and fields have been renovated by the Northern Jiangsu Corps and the people in front of the branch, and there are traps and ditches filled with water everywhere, so it is not so easy to escape.

Moreover, the brothers of the reserve battalion who were newly put into the battlefield saw that the friendly battalion of the headquarters had killed the devils with a river of blood, so they also chased after the remnants of the devils, with a posture that they would never withdraw their troops if they did not kill the devils.

The stragglers of the devils fled in a panic, and many of them fled to find that there was no way ahead, blocked by a large paddy field filled with water.

However, the officers and soldiers of the reserve battalion of the Northern Jiangsu Corps, who were shouting behind them, had already caught up, and the devil had to jump into the muddy paddy fields to flee for his life.

It was not so easy to escape in the muddy and slippery paddy fields, not to mention the cold and biting legs stuck in the mud, and they were as heavy as lead, and the devils who had been beaten out of strength in white-knuckle combat were like some slow-moving live targets, which became the targets of the brothers in the reserve battalion.

"Bang!"

The guns flickered, and the dull sound of gunfire came out far away, and the scorching bullets slammed into the bodies of the devil stragglers who were struggling to trek through the paddy fields from behind.

The body of the devil soldier who was fleeing for his life in the distance in the paddy field was stunned, and a puff of blood mist erupted from his chest, and then his body fell into the mud involuntarily.

But the lone little devil did not die immediately, but struggled and fluttered in the paddy field, and with the thumping bullets whistling, the devil soldier completely plunged into the muddy water and died.

"This is the fifth devil!"

Seeing the little devil being shot dead by them in the paddy field, the brothers of the reserve battalion who fired the shot were full of excitement.

Now the devils have become lost dogs, they have long lost their will to fight, they were arrogant and arrogant, their eyes are on the door of their heads, they think that the Japanese Imperial Army is invincible, and everywhere they go will be destroyed and the Chinese army will flee in the wilderness.

However, the officers and men of the Northern Jiangsu Corps taught these little devils a good lesson this time, and the officers and men of the two battalions attacked each other in the direction of the devil's attack, and the two sides fought until dark.

These devil soldiers, who were composed of baggage soldiers and supplementary soldiers, could also rely on their status as the Imperial Japanese Army to make a fortune, and felt that they were invincible in the world.

But now they have been completely defeated, and this defeat is not only that the entire brigade was almost wiped out by a bloody battle, but more importantly, the spiritual defeat.

The iron-clad Chinese soldiers told the little devils that the spirit of bushido they admired and the so-called superiority of the Yamato nation were so ridiculous.

The devil called the Chinese the Zhina, which was to look down on the Chinese in their hearts, but now it was the Chinese officers and soldiers they looked down on, and they defeated them with the spurs that the devil was good at.

This has caused a big psychological gap in many devils who have always felt that they have a sense of superiority, and they don't believe that this is true.

But in fact, this is the case, the Chinese army relied on flesh and blood on the battlefield to defeat them, many defeated devils fled in despair, ran, tripped to the ground, or were killed by the whistling bullets behind them, and they even had only mechanical escape, and they didn't even have the heart to fight back.

Throughout the ages, all ace troops with outstanding achievements and strong strength have their own military soul.

The reason why the devils have been so strong on the battlefield in China is also because their militaristic ideological indoctrination has turned them into war machines, so that they are not afraid of death.

The reason why the Chinese army has been failing all the time, in addition to the inferior weapons and equipment, is more of a scattered ideology, distrust of its commanders, distrust of friendly forces, and rush to save its life at every touch.

But the Northern Jiangsu Corps is different, many of them have a deep blood feud with the little devils, some officers and soldiers have relatives killed by devils, and some people's homes have been burned and occupied by devils, and many brothers have died in the hands of devils.

The officers and men of the Northern Jiangsu Corps inherited the legacy of the brothers who had died in battle, that is, to fight to the end! Fight with the little devil for every inch of land! Not an inch of land! Even if the blood is flowing like a river!

Because behind them are the people of northern Jiangsu, their parents, wives and children, they can't let the little devils burn all the way over!

When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins! The officers and soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Corps have the spirit of daring to show their swords and the spirit of fighting to the end, this is their military soul, if the devils want to burn, kill and loot, unless they step on their corpses!
