Devil's Army

The direct company, which was fighting fiercely with the Japanese army at the village entrance, retreated immediately when it heard the roar of the plane.

In order to protect the artillery positions, the Japanese army did not pursue.

After a while, bombs fell from the sky like rain.

Soon, the small village was engulfed in artillery fire.

Japanese artillerymen hurriedly hid in the house to avoid air raids.

However, it was no use. Since the Japanese army had massacred the entire village, the Xinjing Air Force made them be buried with the entire village.

Some Japanese soldiers could not bear the fierce air raid and fled the village, but before they got far away from the village, they were intercepted by the direct company.

In the end, this brutal Japanese artillery unit, along with its guard troops, were all buried with the villagers of the entire village.

The Japanese troops in Changting Town who were waiting for artillery reinforcements did not receive any artillery support, but instead received a counterattack from the 1st Regiment of the 17th Brigade.

A regiment of mortar soldiers bombarded the Japanese army from the rooftop.

Unable to resist, the Japanese army wanted to retreat, but outside Changting Town, they were under air attack from the Xinjing Air Force.

At this time, the surface of the Dahailang River was also frozen, and the soldiers of the 2nd Regiment of the 17th Brigade launched an all-out attack on the Japanese positions on the north bank of the Dahailang River from the south bank.

In order to quickly break through the large wave river, the second regiment commander had the unique idea of ​​letting the soldiers practice on skateboards.

On the day of the attack, the Second Regiment's artillery fiercely bombarded the Japanese positions on the other side of the river.

While the Japanese were busy dodging artillery fire, tanks covered the infantry's charge.

Amid the sound of tank bombardment, the vanguard of the 34st Battalion of the nd Regiment, on their skateboards, rushed towards the north bank of the Dahailang River like an arrow shot from a bow.

Before the Japanese army had time to fight back, the soldiers of the first battalion had already crossed the center of the Dahailang River.

The soldiers were covered with ice debris kicked up by the tank tracks and by the Japanese artillery shells.

The tanks that rushed across the Dahailang River were quickly stopped by barricades and anti-tank cones. However, they acted as steel bunkers, fiercely bombarding the Japanese positions on the river beach and covering the infantry charges that landed one after another.

Soldiers from the first battalion approached the Japanese fortifications one after another and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese army.

After more than two hours of fierce fighting, the soldiers of the Second Regiment completely occupied the positions on the north bank of the Dahailan River.

After the follow-up troops cleared the stakes and anti-tank cones, the tanks of the Second Regiment also broke through the Japanese defense line and advanced towards Changting Town.

The fleeing Japanese army moved closer to Changting Town and reported to the commander that the north bank of the Dahailan River had been lost.

The commander was shocked when he received the information.

Their artillery units had been destroyed by the devil's troops and were completely unable to resist the devil's tanks.

He quickly arranged for his troops to dig two anti-tank trenches along the path where the Dahailang River passed.

Fortifications were also built on the hills on both sides of the anti-tank trench in preparation for resisting the attack of the Second Regiment of the Devil Forces.

In the afternoon, the tanks of the Second Regiment arrived at the hill position, but were blocked by anti-tank trenches.

When the soldiers tried to fill the anti-tank trench, they came under heavy fire from Japanese soldiers behind the hill.

The tanks of the Second Regiment immediately bombarded the Japanese positions. However, the two Japanese heavy machine gun positions were in a very tricky position, and the tank shells, which could only fire directly, were unable to destroy the Japanese heavy machine gun positions at the corners.

The soldiers of the First Battalion of the Second Regiment once launched a charge against the Japanese heavy machine gun positions, but were blocked by the dense fire of Japanese bullets, suffered heavy casualties, and had to retreat.

The Xinjing Air Force also rushed over to provide reinforcements, but it was of no use.
