Devil's Army

Soon, the Japanese and puppet troops at the Daqingshan Pass sentry post discovered the devilish soldiers who were rapidly advancing.

The Japanese and puppet troops at the outpost quickly retreated to their positions at the Daqingshan Pass, preparing to block the attack of the devilish troops.

A while later, intense gunfire erupted at the Daqingshan intersection.

The Japanese troops, positioned on the high ground of Daqingshan, unleashed a fierce barrage of fire upon the soldiers of the "Devil's Unit."

The Second Battalion lacked heavy weapons, and its rocket launchers had insufficient range, putting it at a significant disadvantage.

The fourth battalion commander arranged for two companies to attack the Japanese positions at Daqingshan from the flank, in coordination with the second battalion's frontal assault. However, the Japanese resisted the three-pronged attack from the second and third battalions.

That night, the third and fourth battalion commanders discussed launching a night attack on the Japanese positions at Daqingshan.

However, after reconnaissance by the 3rd Battalion's scouts, it was found that this plan would not work. This was because the Japanese army had increased the number of sentries, both visible and hidden, to prevent their night attacks, and patrols were constantly crossing over each other.

Before dawn the next day, the 1st Company of the 4th Battalion quietly approached the Japanese position at Daqingshan under the cover of the dim morning light.

Before the company even reached the Japanese position at Daqingshan, it was spotted by Japanese sentries. A fierce battle ensued.

Although the company was suppressed by Japanese firepower at the foot of the hill and unable to approach the Japanese positions, they did not retreat. Instead, they found cover on the spot and exchanged fire with the Japanese.

The soldiers of the Second Company who arrived later fired smoke grenades at the Japanese positions.

Daqingshan was immediately shrouded in a cloud of smoke.

The Japanese troops fired blindly into the smoke. Some soldiers from the company who tried to use the smoke for cover were hit by the blind fire of the Japanese troops and rolled down the hillside during the attack.

Eight rocket soldiers from the first and second companies lay prone on the ground, keeping their bodies as low as possible, and slowly crawled toward the Japanese position.

As the smoke was about to dissipate, the soldiers of the Second Company fired smoke grenades at the front of the Japanese positions.

The four rocket soldiers finally approached the Japanese position and saw machine guns firing continuously through the smoke.

Rockets continued to streak their tails from the rocket launchers as they hurtled towards the Japanese machine gun positions.

The Japanese machine gunners were blasted into the air before they even spotted the rocket troops.

As the machine guns in the Japanese positions at Daqingshan were continuously blasted away by rocket troops, the Japanese resistance became weaker and weaker.

The soldiers of the first and second companies seized the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the Japanese army's Daqingshan position.

The Japanese troops knew from the sound of heavy footsteps that the devilish troops were charging towards their position, so they quickly brought in machine guns and opened fire fiercely down the mountain.

Soldiers continued to fire smoke grenades at the Japanese positions in front of Daqingshan to cover the attacks of soldiers and rocket troops.

The rocket soldiers had already found their hiding places, and as soon as they saw the muzzle flash of the Japanese machine gun, they immediately blasted it to pieces.

The Japanese army had no way of knowing how the devilish troops accurately bombed their machine gun positions from the smoke-filled Daqingshan Mountains.

However, without machine guns, they could only use grenades as a supplement.

A barrage of grenades exploded in front of the Daqingshan position, inflicting heavy casualties on the soldiers of the First and Second Companies who were charging forward. However, due to the smoke, the Japanese grenades were thrown somewhat blindly.

Soldiers from the first and second companies successively rushed onto the Japanese positions and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese.

Soldiers from the 1st and 2nd companies of the 3rd Battalion broke through the Japanese position, and the 3rd and 4th companies quickly rushed to reinforce them.

The Japanese troops at the Daqingshan position finally could not withstand the attack and retreated to Dangtu County.
