Devil's Army

Just as the chief of staff was happy that they had finally broken through the devil troops' defense line in Hengdaohezi Town, the gunfire in the town suddenly became more intense.

The company that was forced to retreat step by step by the Japanese army suddenly stopped retreating and stubbornly blocked the advance of the Japanese army.

There were also intensive gunshots coming from the rooftops and housetops on both sides of the street, and grenades were thrown down from time to time.

The Fourth Company also launched a fierce attack on the Japanese troops in front.

After a brief period of confusion, the Japanese army also launched a counterattack against the 1st and 4th companies in the front.

The Japanese troops that continued to rush into Hengdaohezi Town were divided into three groups. Two groups advanced to search the two sides of the town, while one group supported the Japanese troops fighting on the front.

At this time, the soldiers of the second and third companies who were ambushed on the buildings on both sides of the town also launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army.

The Xinjing Air Force launched fierce bombing and strafing at any time against the follow-up Japanese troops that were preparing to enter Hengdaohezi Town, preventing them from reinforcing the Japanese troops entering the town.

For a time, Hengdaohezi Town was filled with smoke and the shouts of killing were deafening.

The soldiers of the Seventh Brigade were very angry about the Japanese army using civilians as human shields. They fired at the Japanese army from a high position with anger.

The Japanese also sought cover and fired at the soldiers of the 7th Brigade upstairs.

The Japanese army attempted to rush to the roof of a higher building to occupy the commanding heights and suppress the firepower of the demon troops, but they were stubbornly blocked by the soldiers of the 7th Brigade.

By this time, the fighting in the town had reached a fever pitch. Inside the houses, soldiers from the Seventh Brigade engaged the Japanese in hand-to-hand combat, their bayonets gleaming coldly in the sunlight, and blood stained the streets red.

The machine gunners and rocket soldiers of the 7th Brigade, who occupied the commanding heights, continued to attack the Japanese army from a high position, causing heavy casualties to the Japanese troops who entered the city.

Under the fierce bombing and strafing by the Xinjing Air Force, only a handful of Japanese reinforcements were able to rush into Hengdaohezi Town.

This meant that although the Japanese army attacked tenaciously, they gradually became unable to cope.

After more than an hour of fierce fighting, the soldiers of the second and third companies of the seventh brigade finally defeated the Japanese troops attacking from both sides.

The second company immediately went up to the city wall to block the Japanese reinforcements that were still entering the city.

The third company launched a fierce attack from the rear on the Japanese troops that were attacking from the front.

The Japanese reinforcements preparing to enter Hengdaohezi Town finally retreated under the fierce attack of the Second Company and the New Army Air Force.

The Japanese troops that entered the city were all wiped out by a battalion of soldiers.

The first battalion retook Hengdaohezi Town and prepared to fight against the retreating Japanese troops.

The two Japanese infantry squadrons that entered Hengdaohezi Town were almost completely wiped out, and the rear guard units also suffered heavy losses in the bombing of the Xinjing Air Force. As a result, after lunch, the Japanese army did not launch a new attack on Hengdaohezi Town.

Although the battalion commander repelled the Japanese attack, the Japanese artillery suffered no losses and the main force was still there, so they would definitely not give up.

A battalion commander was worried that the Japanese would use the same old tactics and use civilians as human shields, so he arranged for a Golden Eagle drone to monitor the Japanese army's movements from the air.

Sure enough, at 1:30 in the afternoon, the Japanese army caused trouble again.

Two squadrons of Japanese troops quietly left the camp and ran towards the south gate of Hengdaohezi Town.

A battalion commander suspected that the Japanese army was going to make a feint to the east and attack the south gate of Hengdaohezi Town.

On the one hand, he transferred the fourth company back to support the South Gate, and at the same time reported to the commander of the first regiment and requested support.

The regimental commander now had only four battalions left to maneuver, as the other troops were fighting with the Japanese army. He had no choice but to order the first and second companies of the fourth battalion to rush to the south gate of Hengdaohezi Town for reinforcement.

At this time, the Golden Eagle sent another important piece of information.
