According to the original operation, Gao Jingxiang, deputy commander of the independent battalion, should take the lead in launching the attack at half past eleven in the evening. Because the capture of the Liuhe Iron Bridge was the key point of the entire battle, he could only take the enemy by surprise when he took the first shot.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Gao Jingxiang had already moved his troops along the river bank to a depression west of Zhangjiatun. It is only more than 800 meters away from the little devil bridgehead, which is the best strike distance for infantry artillery.

"Brothers, after we escaped from the Beida camp, what we were waiting for was the day of revenge! After the artillery company has opened fire and destroyed the bridgehead on this side, you will have to climb to the iron bridge and hide. When the infantry artillery is on the railway, it will directly hit the opposite bridgehead. ”

Gao Jingxiang gathered 100 people in the second and third platoons of the cavalry company and said: "Once the bridgehead is knocked out, the task of your cavalry company is to rush forward, and the target is the railway station!" You have also heard it in the past few years, and the fellow villagers have said that our Northeast Army has no urine, and they are all a bunch of cowards, and today is the time to prove ourselves. ”

"The cavalry company's 18 machine guns are handed over to you, and the rest is up to you! Don't worry, this time in the assault operation, Lao Tzu is the on-site commander, you just follow Lao Tzu and rush up! We don't have horses now, so let's do infantry for a few days. Even if you are an infantryman, you can't run slower than the infantry! ”

When Gao Jingxiang mobilized, Weng Shiming had already arrived at the starting position of the attack with three field artillery. Hearing what Gao Jingxiang said, Weng Shiming continued: "We are all tied together, and the reason why we can't rush up at the same time is because the car can't keep up with the speed if it wants to drive over the railway. ”

"However, my three field guns are not for show, and they will be bombarded at the same time at the bridgehead north of the little devil later. Even if you can't open it, you will be stunned by the little devils inside, and provide you with a chance to rush to the iron bridge. Wash away the shame on us and avenge the villagers who died in the royal family's shack for covering us, just tonight! ”

While the fighters of the cavalry company were preparing for battle, the fighters of the artillery company were preparing for zuihou in the dark. Infantry artillery belongs to direct-aim artillery, and now it is direct-aim shooting, there is nothing to calculate at all. The point is that these fighters have not yet operated the Type 92 infantry gun, so they are taking advantage of the opportunity of Zuihou to practice repeatedly.

Three 75mm field guns were about to hit the pillboxes on the other side of the river, and the artillerymen were making intense calculations, and the shooters were also repeatedly training to load shells.

Weng Shiming raised his wrist and used the starlight to identify the hands of the watch. At 11:30, he roared: "Regardless of the number of shells, until the bunker is blown up, fire!" ”

Two infantry guns and three 75mm field guns had already loaded the shells, and with Weng Shiming's order, the five shells flew out of the barrels in two groups and smashed straight to their respective targets!

Boom-boom-boom! A series of big explosions kicked off the Great War.

"Brothers, follow me!" Gao Jingxiang waved his shell gun and took the lead in rushing towards the railway.

Although the Type 92 infantry cannon was powerful, it was not easy to smash the monster in front of it, and three salvos in a row did not blow up the pillbox. However, the two heavy machine guns on top of the pillbox were blown away. At first, there was still the shouting of little devils in the bunker, and the shooting hole was also shot from the machine gun.

But with the fifth salvo, the voice of the little devil was inaudible, and the machine gun was also silent.

Rush - Gao Jingxiang saw that the enemy's machine gun was not moving, and immediately jumped up from the side of the railroad tracks, shouting and rushing towards the opposite side. Not to be outdone, the 100 fighters behind him took the lead with 18 machine guns and went straight down the railroad to the other side of the river.

"Stop shelling! The machine gun squad rushed into the bunker, and if there were no dead little devils, all the little devils would be killed by Lao Tzu! The artillery company hurriedly got the car to the railway, and then slowly drove to the other side of the river to reinforce the cavalry company for the battle! ”

Weng Shiming knew that it would be difficult to completely blow up the reinforced concrete on the opposite side, but the continuous bombardment had already shocked or stunned the people inside, and now it was time to beat the water dogs.

The attack on the two bridgeheads was a surprise attack, and the whole process, that is, five salvos of five guns, was completed. However, the course of the battle did not go well!

After Gao Jingxiang led a hundred soldiers to rush across the iron bridge, he just turned a corner and collided with a pair of little devils. They were supposed to come out of the barracks to reinforce the bridgehead, so they were caught off guard by Gao Jingxiang's 18 machine guns.

Before Gao Jingxiang could pounce on them, two tongues of fire suddenly erupted from a pile of weeds next to the railway, and immediately knocked the three machine gunners who rushed to the front to the ground!

Bunker! The little devil actually built a dark castle next to the railway road that entered the train station! The dense fire of the two machine guns pressed Gao Jingxiang and them to the ground and couldn't raise their heads.

The team of little devils who were hit head-on before, there were about thirty people left, and now they relied on the dark castle and Gao Jingxiang to confront them, and both sides responded in a hurry, and they were stalemate for a while.

"Don't worry, everyone!" At this moment, Weng Shiming had already led more than a dozen people from the artillery company to bend over and run over: "Hurry up and set up the mortars and bombard the infantry of the little devil on the opposite side for Lao Tzu!" ”

Open! Open! Open!

The three mortars fired five rapid fires, which immediately turned the front 500 meters into a sea of fire, and more than 30 little devils were killed and wounded, and they could only keep retreating. The mortars then shifted their direction and began to bombard the bunker in front of them.

Mortar grenades were much more imposing than grenades, and the two machine guns in the bunker began to fire intermittently, and there was no way to fire a full burst, and there was no great threat.

"The machine gunner gave me a hard beat!" Gao Jingxiang finally relented and ordered the light machine gun to clean up the dozen or so little devils who were constantly retreating.

Weng Shiming saw that the dark castle was always shooting with machine guns, and he was immediately annoyed: "Smash all the grenades you brought over to Lao Tzu and kill these bitches!" ”

Before they opened the situation on their side, violent gunfire suddenly broke out in the direction of the northeastern county town, mixed with the shouts of hundreds of people! In particular, the whole earth began to tremble, which was the result of the full-speed onslaught of the huge cavalry.

It is said that after Guan Xingguo, the deputy commander of the first regiment of the Guards Division, received the order, he led a cavalry battalion that had been lurking in Daqinggou for more than half a month tonight, and used the cover of night to conceal and approach Zhangwu County.

It turned out that because the cavalry was different from other troops, it needed a huge territory to keep war horses in captivity. Therefore, the cavalry brigade of the 26th Wing of the Little Devil is not stationed in the county seat, but in Xinglong Mountain.

This unit had already driven to the Kulent Banner and was preparing to launch a surprise attack on Fuxin with another cavalry brigade. Because the Kwantung Army Command suddenly ordered the end of the rectification operation against Rehe, they had just returned to their stations this afternoon.

Guan Xingguo had already scouted here some time ago and knew that the cavalry brigade of the little devils was in this place. Today, for fear of revealing his whereabouts, no reconnaissance of Zuihou was carried out. With such a small mistake, the two cavalry teams collided head-on!

The cavalry brigade of the little devil was ready to reinforce because it heard the fierce shelling from the Liuhe Iron Bridge. Guan Xingguo's cavalry battalion was preparing to attack the county seat, so the two armies marched in the same direction, and they both advanced rapidly from north to south.

The only difference is that the little devil saw Guan Xingguo's troops rushing over, but he didn't take it. Because they thought that it was the cavalry brigade of the Kurant Banner coming to reinforce them, they were defenseless and were still desperately accelerating towards the county seat.

But Guan Xingguo knew that the cavalry next to him was definitely not his own, because Chen Jie's troops should be on the edge of the Liuhe River, and it was still more than ten kilometers away from here!

Besides, attacking the county seat is a combat mission, Chen Jie and they can't be idle, they run here in the middle of the night to see the scenery!

If it's not your own people, and you're hurrying close to the battlefield, it's definitely the enemy.

Intentional vs. unintentional! Guan Xingguo led the troops to slowly approach, and when he was more than 50 meters away, he gave an order, and more than 70 machine guns opened fire at the same time, taking the little devil's cavalry brigade by surprise!

Subsequently, more than 1,000 people from these two cavalry teams became a mess and started a melee in the north of Zhangwu County.

Going back to Chen Jie's task force Li Bozhou's company, they began to move in the direction of the county seat from the lurking site at about eight o'clock in the evening. At the time of a violent explosion at the bridgehead, they also launched an attack on the county seat.

Then from the east straight into the core of the county, Zuihou encountered the military police squadron of the little devils, but was blocked at the central intersection and could not advance half a step.

Although the weapons and equipment are much worse, the terrain is familiar to the little devils, and there are quite a few barricades and fortifications to use. Li Bozhou, they were cavalrymen, and they were hit head-on by the military police squadron of the little devils, and they immediately sacrificed 5 soldiers. Zuihou had no choice, and the two sides were at a stalemate in this place.

More than ten minutes later, Chen Jie finally led the second and third companies to arrive, and a mortar smashed over, finally defeating the little devil's military police squadron, and at the same time, he also heard the shouting and killing in the north of the county, as well as the dense explosions in the southwest of the county!

Now the situation of the enemy is not clear, and no one can say what the situation is. The only basis for judgment can only be where there is gunfire, where is the main battlefield!

Although Chen Jie is young, he is much calmer than Xia Enze and the others, and his mind is always calmer. It's not okay if you don't calm down, because you didn't calm down a few times, you almost got into a big disaster, and you were almost shot by Bai Shujie twice!

At this time, he did not hesitate to give an order: "The first company reinforces the north of the county, the second company reinforces the independent battalion, and the third company completely clears out this group of little devils on the opposite side, and then seizes the railway station!" I went to Yujiabao to see the enemy's reinforcements. ”

However, Chen Jie's deployment of troops this time is just right, otherwise there may really be a big problem!

It turned out that the troubles here of Weng Shiming of the independent battalion were one after another, and the soldiers of the hundred cavalry companies had now sacrificed 19 people, which had reached the point where it was difficult to move an inch!

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
