Devil's Army

The charging Japanese soldiers were knocked down one after another by the dense firepower of the second company's machine guns. Then they were beaten back step by step by the fierce counterattack of the third company.

The battalion's direct platoon, covering the student soldiers, also took the opportunity to break out of the Japanese encirclement, rushed into the Fengtai Railway Station, and joined the Third Regiment of the First Anti-Japanese Army.

The Japanese attacked Fengtai repeatedly but suffered setbacks, and the focus of the attack shifted to the Nanyuan military headquarters.

The commander of the Third Regiment ordered the First Battalion to take the lead and launched a fierce attack on the Japanese outside Fengtai Railway Station.

The remaining two 150mm howitzers of the Third Regiment also bombarded the Japanese with all their might.

The second battalion of the third regiment rushed to the left, and the third battalion rushed to the rear, also rushing forward to expand the gap.

In the end, Wu Lang rushed back to Peking from Fengtai with the student soldiers.

In order to attract the Japanese's attention, Deputy Commander Tong began to retreat towards Dahongmen before the battle on Wulang's side started.

The Japanese noticed Deputy Commander Tong's intention and began to gather heavy troops to block Deputy Commander Tong's retreat.

At this time, the roar of an airplane was heard in the distance again.

The company commander recognized it as their plane at a glance and he danced and shouted with joy.

The Japanese artillery also discovered the planes of the First Anti-Japanese Army and immediately stopped the shelling.

At that time, the pilots on the plane and the personnel on the ground lacked effective means of communication.

The pilots of the First Army did not discover the hidden artillery positions of the Japanese and began to drop bombs on the attacking Japanese.

The Japs fled and hid everywhere amid a series of explosions.

Deputy Commander Tong took this opportunity to lead everyone to retreat to Dahongmen.

After the First Army's planes dropped their bombs and returned, the Japanese began to gather heavy troops to surround Dahongmen.

The Japanese artillery began to turn to bombard Dahongmen. More than half an hour later, a group of Japanese troops began to attack Dahongmen under the cover of two Type 97 tanks.

Deputy Commander Tong looked at the company commander, who shook his head helplessly at him. Their 40 rocket soldiers had no more shells.

Deputy Commander Tong personally led the soldiers of the 1st Regiment of the Special Forces Brigade to block the Japanese attack.

Two soldiers from the special forces brigade crawled towards the Japanese tanks with grenades in their hands.

When approaching the Japanese tank, two soldiers jumped up and prepared to pounce on the Japanese tank.

At this time, the infantry next to the Japanese tank also discovered the two soldiers of the 29th Army and quickly shot at them.

Two special forces brigade soldiers were shot and fell to the ground one after another, and the grenades in their hands also fell to the ground.

The two Japanese tanks continued to bombard Dahongmen, posing a considerable threat to the 29th Army. Deputy Commander Tong was so anxious that he was ready to send more people to blow up the tanks.

At this time, the Japanese heavy machine guns kept firing at the Dahongmen fortifications. Deputy Commander Tong was unable to dodge and was shot and fell.

The company commander was horrified when he saw this, and realized that there was no way to complete the task assigned to him by the second brigade commander.

The company commander immediately called on the medical soldiers to rescue Deputy Commander Tong.

Fortunately, Deputy Commander Tong was only shot in the leg. The medical soldier immediately treated the wound on the spot.

There was the roar of an airplane in the distance again. The company commander looked up at the sky and shouted:

"Be careful," and threw himself on Deputy Commander Tong.

The Japanese bombers also came to help, dropping aerial bombs on Dahongmen.

Two aerial bombs were dropped on Deputy Commander Tong in succession.

When the medic rushed over, the company commander had already been hit by several bullets.

The company commander used up his last bit of strength to point at Deputy Commander Tong who was pressing down on him.

Everyone hurriedly carried Deputy Army Commander Tong back to the room for rescue. However, at this time, Deputy Army Commander Tong was hit by shrapnel in the head. In the end, he was seriously injured and could not be rescued. He died heroically at the age of 45.

After General Tong's death, Commander Zhao of the 132nd Division took on the heavy responsibility of command and led the remaining soldiers of the 29th Army and the First Anti-Japanese Army to continue to block the Japanese invaders.

The Japanese tanks, with the cooperation of the infantry, broke into Dahongmen and continued to bomb and pursue the 29th Army.

Zhao Dengyu, the commander of the 132nd Division, a tough man who had killed thousands of Japanese soldiers with his sword in the Battle of the Great Wall, responded calmly and prepared to blow up the Japanese tanks.

At this time, the Japanese planes came to help, dropping aerial bombs on the fortifications and bunkers of the 29th Army soldiers.

Commander Zhao had to continue retreating with his soldiers.

The Japanese encirclement of Dahongmen was getting tighter and tighter, and the strategic maneuvering space for the soldiers of the 29th Army was getting smaller and smaller.

At this time, planes from the First Anti-Japanese Army came to support them, dropping bombs on the Japanese who were surrounding Dahongmen.

An air force officer of the First Army saw two Japanese tanks approaching Dahongmen, so he dived down and dropped bombs on them continuously.

Bombs exploded one after another around the Japanese tanks, blowing the infantry next to the Japanese tanks flying everywhere.

As soon as the bomber of the First Army Air Force flew away, another bomber piloted by Sun Zhigang swooped down and dropped bombs on the Japanese tanks.

A bomb fell on the top of the Japanese tank's tower, and with a loud "boom", the tank's turret was blown away.

The reason why Leng Feng kept sending planes to support the 29th Army in Nanyuan was to rescue General Tong and General Zhao, two anti-Japanese heroes.

If we can recruit these two anti-Japanese heroes, the First Anti-Japanese Army led by them will be a powerful force that will terrify the Japanese on the anti-Japanese battlefield.

But what Leng Feng didn't know was that General Tong had already sacrificed his life for his country.
