The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 164: Defeat the Japanese

Everywhere he looked, there were empty farmlands. At the moment, the air was filled with flying dust and smoke... Even if Jiang Cheng looked around with a telescope, he could not see anything.

Even though I have read a lot of documents about the Japanese army in later generations, I have fought against these cruel invaders many times during the Republic of China.

But it was basically a surprise attack and a lightning attack, and it was the first time for a real face-to-face battle.

"not……"

Just as a hint of impending threat flashed through the depths of my mind, there was a fierce explosion suddenly from the east gate!
not good.

Fell into a trap!
Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and suddenly realized that these cunning Japanese soldiers' "frontal attack" was just a heavy firepower to attract their attention in order to cover the feint attack of another siege force!

Dapingzhuang, which is close to the provincial capital and has unique natural conditions, is prosperous, with gatehouses in the east, south, west and north.

But this kind of "prosperity" would undoubtedly become a nightmare when war breaks out. Even though Cai Junheng's regular troops had undergone several months of rigorous training, their quality was still lacking.
The newly joined members of the insurance team had no time for training before they had to fight the Japanese. The difficulty of the battle can be imagined.

The battle at the east gate could not be held out right after it began. The Japanese grenades were extremely accurate and penetrated into the fortifications at an oblique angle, destroying machine gun positions one after another.

In the darkness, the Kwantung Army soldiers wearing steel helmets kept approaching, their shooting accuracy was terrifying. The brothers could not hurt many devils, but because of the flash of the muzzle, these tricky Japanese soldiers quickly discovered their position.

When Jiang Cheng arrived with reinforcements, the gate tower had been breached, and a large number of Japanese soldiers rushed up like a tide, with the plaster flags on their bayonets connected to form a piece...

Damn, this is just a squad! ?
Jiang Cheng felt jealous and found a hiding place to fire two shots. The two Japanese soldiers fell to the ground, but the bullets that followed seemed to have eyes and immediately swept towards him in a group.

Shrapnel was flying everywhere, and the exploded wall and loess hit his face painfully. Then Hai Rushong shouted, and he actually waved a long knife and led several soldiers to rush forward without caring about their lives.

The gunfight instantly turned into a hand-to-hand fight. The sharp bayonets shone brightly under the torches near the gate. Jiang Cheng picked up a knife and rushed forward, but Ye Hai beside him held him down: "Master Jiang, don't go. They..."

Before he could finish his words, the other side exploded!
Someone threw a grenade at the crowd. Hai Rushong and two soldiers were fighting with several Japanese soldiers, and were knocked over by this deadly gust of air.

"Oh shit!"

Jiang Cheng cursed loudly and just stood up to help, the unconscious machine gunner at the gate stood up and fired madly at the Japanese troops who kept pouring up.

His action greatly boosted morale. Jiang Cheng and Hai Pingchuan exchanged glances and arranged the formation of the nearby soldiers, then jumped out of the cover and rushed out.

"Don't throw fucking grenades once the people are inside!"

I don't know who shouted, but the hand-to-hand combat with these bastards began.

The east gate of Dapingzhuang was built as the widest, and could accommodate two carriages side by side - in this way, the Japanese troops allowed in were almost formed into a formation, making it very difficult to fight against them.

At this moment, the brave Hai Rushong had led his troops again and rushed forward with a roar, waving a one-meter-long broad saber and sweeping like the wind. Several Japanese soldiers did not dare to move forward.

The first round of attack failed to stop the Japanese, but they were no match for the hand-to-hand combat and were quickly repelled. But before they had time to catch their breath, the third round of attack consisting of heavy firepower began!

The large-caliber bullets pierced through the night, sweeping across like a plow, and seven or eight brothers who had no time to retreat were hit instantly.

The ferocity of this heavy weapon from the industrial age is not at all like what is shown in modern movies and TV dramas.

Under the coverage of firepower, the mere flesh and blood body was instantly beaten to pieces as if it was blown to pieces from the inside out!

The entire East Gate was filled with smoke, blood, and flying flesh. The murderous aura that was overwhelming was enough to make one's scalp numb.

More Japanese troops approached under cover of fire.

Fight.

Jiang Cheng clenched his saber tightly and made up his mind.

Behind him is his home, his pregnant wife and Miss Hai who helps him run his business. With a powerful enemy at hand and a life-and-death battle imminent, how can he retreat even a step?
His eyes were filled with hatred, but when he looked around, these brothers who were covered by fire and could not show their heads seemed to have the same determination as him.

"If you're not afraid of death, come with me later!"

Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth.

"Master Jiang, I'm here to protect you."

Amid the chaotic explosions, Ye Hai's voice was extremely firm.

"Fuck you, you still have your son."

Turning around, Jiang Cheng wanted to kick him again, but he found that this strong man had a determined look in his eyes, just like those Chinese men who had fought to the death for thousands of years.

"Brothers."

Jiang Cheng smiled.

Boom!
A loud bang!
The Japanese soldiers who rushed towards the east gate of Dapingzhuang were all blown into the sky by a deafening explosion.

That’s not all. A large number of artillery shells landed one after another, instantly disrupting their formation.

The loud trumpet sounded through the dead silent night!

Liu Runchuan has arrived.

"Fuck it, I thought I was going to die here."

When the reinforcements arrived, the soldiers who were suppressed by the heavy machine guns and could not show their heads all breathed a sigh of relief.

The Hai father and son were the first to jump out of the bunker, and together with Liu Runchuan who came to reinforce, they attacked the group of Japanese soldiers who attempted to attack.

The number of Kwantung Army troops rushing out from the South Manchuria Railway Station is here. Although the attack is fierce, every one killed is one less.

The Japanese, who always valued their lives, fought and retreated, and soon their entire line was heading towards Fengtian South Manchuria Station.

"Don't chase them. If we really provoke all the Japs inside, we will all suffer great losses."

Liu Runchuan rushed over and stopped the Hai family father and son who were trying to continue the pursuit, "Besides, that bastard Ding Chunxi is still nearby."

Anyone would take advantage of chaos to gain an advantage. If the main forces of the 2nd Regiment are all pulled out, it would be difficult to drive Ding away once he gets into the territory.

"Damn, those damn Japanese bastards!"

Hai Pingchuan, covered in blood, spat and stared at them with an unwilling look on his face as they walked away.

"Listen to Captain Liu, retreat."

At Jiang Cheng's command, the brothers who had chased out all retreated back to Dapingzhuang.

The invaders were completely repelled, but a pile of corpses were left behind.

A rough estimate is that no less than one hundred people died in this battle, especially at the East Gate where casualties were heavy.

There were cries everywhere in the darkness, and the oppressive smoke was mixed with the suffocating smell of blood. Cai Yuanzong was particularly angry, and his voice was trembling: "Fuck those Japs!"

Adjutant Luo Zhengyang, who was standing not far from him, also gnashed his teeth and said, "Damn it, didn't they arrest some Japanese businessmen? Pull them out and shoot them all!"
