Devil's Army

At the meeting, a brigade commander asked a company commander who participated in the battle to introduce the situation of the Liangjiashan Fortress.

The captain of the first company introduced: "The Japanese bunker on Liangjia Mountain is buried deep underground, solid, and has multiple floors. Unless our shells hit it directly, the damage will not be great."

"Then we send 40 rocket soldiers to attack at close range." suggested a regiment commander.

"Not only are there many bunkers, but they are also intricate and intertwined. How many 40 rocket soldiers will we have to sacrifice to destroy them all?" asked the company commander.

The company commander participated in the battle of Liangjiashan Fortress, and his words were very important, so everyone had to take them into consideration. But everyone couldn't come up with a good solution.

Finally, the regiment commander suggested to dispatch two battalions and twelve 40 rocket launcher soldiers to assist in retaking the Liangjiashan Fortress.

The next morning, the 150mm howitzers of the st Brigade began bombarding the Liangjiashan Fortress.

The Japanese soldiers inside the Liangjiashan Fortress hid in the second-level fortifications, opened their mouths wide, covered their ears, and listened to the huge explosion of the 150mm howitzer shells in silence.

In the past, only their artillery bombarded the Chinese, but now it was the Chinese artillery's turn to bombard them.

Captain Inusheng of Liangjiashan Fortress had learned from the telegram that the reinforcements from Fengtian and Jinzhou had been repelled by the devil troops. In order not to shake the morale of the army, he did not dare to tell his subordinate officers and soldiers.

Fortunately, the Liangjiashan Fortress still has sufficient supplies of food, water, and ammunition, so it should not be a problem to hold out for half a month.

As soon as the artillery fire of the First Brigade stopped, the commander of the First Battalion immediately ordered the Second Company to begin the attack.

The Second Company had many veterans with sophisticated tactics and techniques. They formed teams of three and jumped to avoid the enemy's bullets on Liangjia Mountain.

Twelve 40 rocket launcher soldiers in the second company slowly approached the Liangjiashan bunker.

The Japanese in the fortifications began shooting at the Second Company that was approaching them.

The machine gunners of the second company immediately lay down to suppress the Japanese firepower.

At this time, the machine gunners in a well-hidden Japanese bunker in front of them began to fire at the soldiers of the First Army.

The two soldiers on the side of the machine gunner were shot and fell to the ground one after another.

Behind the machine gunner, three 40 rocket launcher soldiers were arranged in a triangle. The rocket launcher soldier in the front blew up the Japanese bunker with one shot.

The soldiers next to him rushed forward quickly.

At this time, two fire snakes emerged from both sides not far from the bunker that was blown up.

The soldiers who were charging were unable to dodge and were shot and fell one after another.

The two 40 rocket launcher soldiers on both sides, who had been prepared, immediately fired a shot at the two bunkers.

After two explosions, "boom, boom, boom", the two bunkers on both sides were also blown down.

The soldiers continued to leap forward towards the fortress.

At this moment, what no one expected was that a few stones were pushed away from under an inconspicuous bush behind the soldiers. Then tongues of fire shot towards the soldiers who were rushing forward.

The three 40 rocket launcher soldiers next to the bushes were the first to be shot and fell.

As flames continued to spit out from new bunkers, soldiers from the Second Company and 40th rocket launcher soldiers continued to fall.

The battalion commander was so anxious after seeing this that he had to stop the attack.

The troops retreated, and the battalion commander counted them, and there were 72 people left in the second company, including the wounded. Of the 12 rocket launcher soldiers, only three remained.

Fortunately, the troops had done a good job in propaganda, and the 40 rocket launchers and shells that fell on the positions were picked up by the infantry when they retreated. Otherwise, if they fell into the hands of the Japanese, they could easily copy them with their current industrial base.

After two major assaults, two main companies were lost, and the regiment commander was heartbroken.

He discussed countermeasures with a brigade commander, but the brigade commander could not come up with a good idea. He could only take the stupid approach of besieging them first.

At the same time, he informed the commander of the Third Brigade to prevent the Japanese from Fengtian and Jinzhou from launching a sneak attack.

The Japanese Kwantung Army was surrounded by a local army. If this got out, how could the Kwantung Army save its face? However, with the current strength of Jinzhou and Fengtian, they could not break through the blockade of the two brigades of the devil army.

Division Commander Sakamoto and the Chief of Staff in Fengtian could only maintain the status quo and wait for the new commander of the Kwantung Army to take office before making a decision.

In the blink of an eye, the Liangjiashan Fortress had been blocked by a brigade for more than a week.

During this period, the First Brigade also launched a tentative attack, but the Japanese still had plenty of bullets and their morale was high. They said that the weapons, ammunition and food supplies in Mingliangjiashan Fortress were still sufficient.

However, there were problems with the food supply of the First and Third Brigades.

The food for the First and Third Brigades was allocated by the First Army Logistics Department.

On this day, the brigade commander was at the brigade headquarters when a patrol brought in two injured soldiers from the First Army.

The injured soldiers reported to the brigade commander that they were from the First Army General Logistics Department and were ordered to escort six carts of food to the camps of the First and Third Brigades. When they passed near Niangniang Palace Town, they were attacked by a group of unknown armed elements.

"Has all the food been stolen?" asked a brigade commander.

"We fought hard, but two trucks were still robbed. The other four trucks were able to retreat successfully."

"This group of militants is so powerful? What weapons do they use?"

"This group of militants used Japanese weapons. We suspect they were Japanese in disguise."

"No doubt about it, it should be that person." The commander of the first brigade decided to discuss with the commander of the third brigade to clear out the Japanese invaders and puppet troops in the towns and villages around Jinzhou and Fengtian.
