Devil's Army

The third regiment commander had no choice but to leave behind a platoon of soldiers to guard the path leading into the mountain, while the other troops began to evacuate.

On the Nv'er River side, the soldiers of the First Battalion, Third Regiment, First Brigade took advantage of the suppression of the Japanese fortifications and firepower points on the west side of the Nv'er River and began to quickly cross the river on the frozen surface.

Just as part of the soldiers of the first battalion crossed the Daughter River, the Japanese reinforcements arrived. The Japanese firepower in the fortifications began to increase fiercely again.

The soldiers of the first battalion were suppressed by the Japanese bullets and lay on the river bank, unable to raise their heads.

A 40th rocket soldier hiding behind the roots of a large cut tree on the river bank aimed his heavy machine gun at the loudest-shouting Japanese soldier on his left.

With a whoosh sound, a 40mm rocket with sparks trailing from the tail rushed towards the heavy machine gun position of the Japanese.

There was a loud "boom" and the Japanese heavy machine gun along with the two Japanese soldiers behind it were blown into the sky.

A Japanese machine gunner discovered the 40 rocket soldiers behind the big tree roots, and fired a series of "da da da..." machine guns at the big tree roots.

A soldier of the First Army on the sand fired a shot, knocking down the Japanese machine gunner. The 40th rocket soldier took the opportunity to roll out of the tree roots and rolled to the small indentation on the side.

Another Japanese soldier took over the light machine gun and fired continuously at the First Army soldier on the sand.

On the exposed sand, the soldier was shot twice in the head, his hand hanging limply on the butt of the gun.

The 40th rocket soldier on the notch took the opportunity to fire another bullet. With a loud bang, the Japanese light machine gun and the Japanese were blown away together.

When the third regiment commander saw that the gunfire from the Japanese fortifications became more frequent, he immediately ordered the artillery to bombard the Japanese fortifications.

The Japanese heard the whistling of the devil's army's artillery shells and immediately hid. The gunfire in the fortifications suddenly became sparse. The soldiers of the first battalion quickly crossed the river.

In order to prevent accidental bombing of their own people, the artillery of the Third Regiment stopped shelling.

When the Japs saw that the Devil Unit's artillery bombardment had stopped, they immediately lay on the fortifications and shot at the Devil Unit soldiers.

At this time, the machine gunners of the first battalion who had already crossed the river took the initiative and immediately suppressed the firepower of the Japanese on the fortifications with "tat tat tat..."

With the cooperation of the machine gunners, the infantry jumped step by step and approached the Japanese fortifications.

Seeing that it was difficult to resist the attack of the first army, the Japanese in the fortifications immediately called for artillery support.

The Japanese artillery firepower was already at a disadvantage compared to that of the Third Regiment, but in order to defend the fortifications, they still bombarded the first battalion of soldiers on the river bank.

A battalion of soldiers who had already crossed the river came under fire and had to stop charging and lie on the ground to avoid the shelling.

The artillery of the Third Regiment passed the track of the Japanese artillery shells and quickly launched suppressive fire.

The artillery fire on the first battalion soldiers on the riverbank soon died down. The first battalion soldiers immediately seized the opportunity to continue their charge.

The Japanese soldiers in the fortifications could not resist and began to retreat. The soldiers of the first battalion continued to press forward.

After leaving behind a trail of dead bodies, the remaining Japanese soldiers retreated to the urban area of ​​Jinzhou.

The soldiers of the first battalion began to fight with the Japanese for house by house, and a brutal street battle broke out.

There were also many civilians in the city who did not have time to escape and were captured by the Japanese behind them and taken hostage.

For the safety of the people, the soldiers of the first battalion had to temporarily withdraw from the urban area of ​​Jinzhou.

A brigade commander had learned some Japanese from Wenlang a few years ago. He proposed to negotiate with the Japanese troops in the city.

There are still about 800 Japanese devils left in the urban area of ​​Jinzhou. They are very arrogant because they have civilian hostages in their hands.

They asked the Devil's Army to provide them with a warship, weapons, ammunition and food so that they could leave Jinzhou.

The third regiment commander was so angry that he kept cursing: "Why don't the Japanese let us withdraw from the entire base area?"

"They definitely want to, but they don't have the ability," a brigade commander replied with a smile.

"Then how should we answer them? Agree to their terms?"

"It's impossible to agree to their conditions. Let's talk about it..."

Before the brigade commander finished speaking, a gunshot was heard in Jinzhou city. Then, a civilian's body was thrown on the street by the Japanese. A Japanese soldier shouted to the First Army:

"How about it? Have you thought it through? If you don't agree, we will kill a Chinese every five minutes!"

When the brigade commander heard this, he was furious and said to the sniper next to him:

"Kill him, and then kill another devil."

The sniper nodded, and two "chirps" were heard from the LR-4, and the Japanese soldier who was shouting and the Japanese soldier next to him were shot in the head one after another.

At this time, a brigade commander shouted to the devils:

"The common people have no relationship with me, so you can kill them if you want. I warn you, from now on, for every common people you kill, I will kill two of you. If the common people die, none of you will survive. If you don't believe me, why don't you do it again?"

The third regiment commander beside him heard what the first brigade commander said and asked nervously:

"Brigade Commander, are we really ignoring these civilians?"

"How is this possible?"

"Then you just..."

"We want to save the people, but we can't let the devil know that we are worried about them, otherwise the devil will ask for a high price."

As expected, the Japs stopped shooting civilians. One of them shouted to the First Army:

"What about the conditions we proposed?"

"We can provide a ship for you to leave, and nothing else. If you don't agree, the people will die, and none of you will survive."

"Killing these civilians is an easy task. The devil troops can kill them all." Thinking of this, for the sake of more than 800 imperial soldiers, the devil commander finally made concessions and agreed to let these civilians go while letting them board the ship.
