Devil's Army

A part of the Second Company of the Third Battalion was searching the hills between Bagudi and Dalazi Mountain when it was suddenly attacked by the Japanese army.

Several soldiers from the Second Company who were searching in front were shot and killed immediately.

The soldiers behind him quickly lay down and fired at the Japanese troops on the hilltops, calling for reinforcements from the main force.

After the second company's large force arrived, they outflanked the Japanese and puppet troops on the hills from both sides.

The Japanese and puppet troops on the hill resisted for a while, but fearing that they would be surrounded by the Second Company, they retreated to the pass position behind.

After occupying the Japanese hill position, the soldiers of the second company continued to advance forward, but they were fiercely strafed by the Japanese troops above the pass.

The rocket soldiers of the second company wanted to blow up the machine gun positions above the Japanese pass, but they were suppressed by the Japanese firepower and had no way to get close to the pass.

The two sides fought a stalemate across the pass.

At this time, the fourth company of the third battalion was fighting with the Japanese army in the Yanghe River Valley.

The traditional routes from Xinghe County to Shangdu mostly extend along the river valleys of Yanghe River tributaries (such as Erdao River and Yinzi River). The terraces and hills on both sides of the valley (such as Datai Mountain in the northwest of Xinghe) are high above the ground, overlooking the valley passage.

At that time, a part of the Japanese and puppet troops in Shangdu County controlled the high ground on both sides of the river valley and blocked the north-south traffic.

The search troops of the 4th Company of the 3rd Battalion were attacked by fire from the Japanese and puppet troops in a dominant position when they passed through, resulting in heavy casualties.

The third battalion commander had no choice but to telegraph the first regiment commander and call for air force reinforcements.

At this time, the Xinjing Air Force was bombing the Japanese and puppet troops on the Harbin city wall and could not arrive in time.

In order to reduce casualties, the commander of the third battalion ordered a temporary halt to the attack and cut off the Japanese army's transportation lines on the valley heights.

Just when the Second Company of the Third Battalion was in a stalemate with the Japanese troops at the pass, the commander of the First Battalion led two companies from Zhengxiangbai Banner, Chahar Province, detoured through Bagudi and reached the pass in the middle of Dalazi Mountain.

There were a few Japanese soldiers guarding the pass. If a battalion commander broke through the pass by force, the large Japanese army behind him would surely rush over to reinforce.

If they fail to handle the situation properly, they will end up in a stalemate with the Japanese army, just like the Third Battalion to the north.

A battalion commander selected dozens of capable soldiers and quietly climbed up the pass.

A Japanese soldier who was about to urinate after walking out of the pass suddenly saw the soldiers of the first battalion climbing up. He was so panicked that he wanted to turn around and call for help.

At this time, the rifle of a soldier from the first battalion who was closest to the Japanese soldier slipped out of his hand, and the bayonet on the rifle pierced the chest of the Japanese soldier.

The Japanese soldier, with blood gushing from his chest, fell headfirst into the pass without even having time to shout out.

Two Japanese soldiers in the pass position heard the unusual noise and came over to check what was going on.

The two Japanese soldiers just stuck their heads out to check what was going on when two gunshots rang out and the two Japanese soldiers plunged down the pass.

The other Japanese soldiers hurriedly picked up the guns beside them and tried to fight back.

The soldiers of the first company of the first battalion had already rushed up the pass and were firing fiercely at them.

The soldiers of the first company of the first battalion successfully occupied the position in the southern part of the pass. The battalion commander then led a large force to attack the north side of the pass.

The Japanese commander hurriedly divided his troops to block the attack of the first battalion. However, the Japanese and puppet troops blocking the first company of the first battalion no longer had the advantage of the high ground. They retreated step by step under the fierce attack of the first company.

At this time, the soldiers of the second company of the third battalion on the north side of the pass intensified their offensive, making the Japanese soldiers exhausted and miserable.

At this time, something happened that made the Japanese army despair.
