Devil's Army

The commander of the Japanese 68th Division received a series of telegrams from the besieged Japanese commander requesting reinforcements. He ordered the reinforcements to march quickly to the aid of the besieged Japanese air force, braving the bombing raids.

The Japanese commander in Jiujiang County then ordered his troops to launch continuous attacks on the First Regiment's positions.

At this moment, the air force of the First Army arrived and launched a fierce bombing and strafing attack on the attacking Japanese troops, disrupting their offensive.

The soldiers of the regiment fought to the death and stubbornly blocked the Japanese troops in Jiujiang County from the mountain positions.

At this moment, the scouts brought news that worried the Japanese commander:

Large numbers of devil soldiers were spotted on both sides of the path.

At this moment, an ominous feeling crept into the heart of the Japanese commander. Fearing a repeat of the fate of the previous Japanese reinforcements, he hastily ordered a retreat. But it was too late.

Based on intelligence transmitted from the Golden Eagle drone, a brigade commander concluded that the Japanese army was trying to escape.

Therefore, the Third Regiment was ordered to speed up its march and rush to Yunshan to set up defenses.

The third regimental commander received the order and commanded the soldiers to advance at a running pace.

When the troops arrived at the foot of Yunshan Mountain, the Japanese army had not yet crossed Yunshan.

The vanguard—the First Battalion—immediately laid mines at the foot of Yunshan Mountain.

The Second and Third Battalions dug trenches and constructed fortifications on the mountainside of Yunshan.

After a while, the roar of a truck engine came from the path.

A series of explosions rang out, and the lead truck was overturned by landmines.

As the landmines exploded, intense gunfire erupted from the mountainside of Yunshan.

The 1st Company of the 2nd Battalion fired fiercely at the Japanese troops from the trenches on the hillside.

The rocket troops also destroyed the two Japanese trucks in front.

The Japanese commander quickly ordered the artillery to fire on the Unsan position.

The Yunshan position was immediately shrouded in smoke.

Due to the time constraints, the soldiers of the Second and Third Battalions did not have time to dig anti-artillery bunkers. The soldiers could only hide in the existing fortifications to avoid Japanese artillery fire.

The soldiers of the company suffered heavy casualties under the fierce shelling of the Japanese army, but when they saw the Japanese infantry begin to attack, they immediately lay down on the trenches and fired fiercely at the Japanese army.

As soon as the Japanese infantry began their attack, they stepped on landmines one after another.

The surrounding enemy forces were tightening their encirclement, and the anxious commander had no choice but to order the engineers to clear the mines quickly.

The Japanese engineers who were clearing mines were constantly being shot at by a company of soldiers.

The Japanese machine gunners immediately lay down and continued to suppress the company's fire. But it was to no avail.

Currently, once the Japanese army breaks through the Yunshan defense line of the "Devil Force," they can cross the Long'an River and retreat back to Jiujiang County.

In order to save time, the Japanese army ordered mortars to blast a path through the minefield in front of Unsan.

The infantry launched continuous attacks on the positions on the mountainside of Yunshan.

However, the battalion commanders of the first and second battalions fought against the Japanese army and continued to send reinforcements to the position, keeping the Japanese army firmly blocked in front of Yunshan.

Seeing that there was no way to break through the devilish troops' defenses in a short time, the Japanese commander made a bold plan, ordering the Japanese troops to split into three groups and break out separately.

However, it was too late.

The first, second, and fourth regiments on the outer perimeter tightened their encirclement and pressed towards the Japanese army.

The Japanese troops who broke out from both flanks were cut off and surrounded by soldiers of the First Brigade.

Intense gunfire and explosions rang out all around Yunshan.

The Nanxiong Air Force of the First Army also arrived at this time and continuously bombed and strafed the various Japanese forces in the encirclement.

The battle continued until evening, when most of the Japanese reinforcements in Jiujiang County were annihilated.
