Devil's Army

Captain Li brought the captain to the headquarters to hand over the supplies from the convoy.

A Japanese soldier smiled at a soldier from the third squadron:

"Let's take a break. Are you afraid that the Chinese army will attack us when we get to the military camp?"

"Let's take a rest here. We've been attacked several times by the Chinese army, so it feels more comfortable to be closer to these guys." The special forces soldier patted the truck and said.

As soon as the captain walked into the command room, he was knocked down by Captain Li.

The Japanese transport team soldiers who were resting nearby also found that this military camp seemed a little different from other military camps. The patrol density was too high. There was a patrol team coming from the front, and two patrol teams coming from the back.

At this time, the two Japanese soldiers found that Captain Li's troops who came with them suddenly took off their hats. This would be punished in the Japanese army, which was very particular about military appearance.

The two Japanese soldiers were about to ask Captain Li's soldiers what was going on when three patrol teams fired fiercely at them.

The Japanese soldiers on the periphery were knocked down one after another, and those in the middle and inside quickly ran towards the trucks. They wanted to run onto the trucks to block the attacks of these "friendly forces" in the barracks.

But what made these devils collapse was that the road to the truck was blocked by Captain Li's team. They were lying on the ground to block the devils.

These patrols had powerful firepower, with a disproportionate number of light and heavy machine guns.

Some of the Japs began to lie down behind the corpses and fire back at the patrol.

As more and more soldiers gathered around, the Japanese transport soldiers were surprised to find that these soldiers were not wearing Japanese military uniforms. This meant that all their ten trucks of supplies had been lost to the enemy.

The deputy leader of the Japanese transport team was a lieutenant who flew into a rage and waved his command knife to order his soldiers to charge at the trucks. They wanted to set the supplies on fire and use the Chinese soldiers as scapegoats.

However, before he could run to the truck, a special forces soldier from the third squadron shot him in the head.

The lieutenant opened his eyes wide, fell on his back with a look of defiance on his face.

In less than half an hour, the Japanese transport team and the escorting soldiers were all wiped out by the soldiers of the Fifth Brigade.

A regiment commander walked towards the convoy happily, lifted the canvas of the trucks one by one, and said to himself as he looked at them:

"Good, good, good..."

What made the regiment commander happiest was that among the ten trucks of supplies there was a whole truck of Type 150 150mm howitzers. This meant that the Type mm howitzers they had captured from the Japanese were no longer just a pile of scrap metal.

The regiment commander ordered the soldiers of the first battalion to clean up the battlefield, and the soldiers of the second battalion to build defensive fortifications on the north side of the camp to prevent the Japanese from counterattacking.

The commanders of the first and second regiments discussed and decided to keep the truck of 150mm grenades, bullets, grenades and gasoline. The other supplies were escorted back to Tongzhou by the third battalion and the third squadron.

Since the Fifth Brigade lacked anti-aircraft weapons, the regimental commander had to drive the three trucks of supplies to the foot of a mountain a little away from the military camp, camouflage them, and arrange for the First Company of the First Battalion to be stationed there.

After doing all this, the regiment commander asked the special forces company to arrange a reconnaissance platoon to scout the situation ahead, and the troops followed up.

Now both the Chinese and Japanese armies were gathering their forces near Baoding, and the biggest battle in North China was about to begin. The commander-in-chief ordered the second regiment to assist the first regiment, attack and contain the Japanese troops surrounding Baoding, and provide strong support to the Chinese defenders in Baoding.

When Kenji Doihara's 14th Division was beaten back by the Anti-Japanese First Army, the Japanese 6th Division broke through the Yongding River defense line of the Chinese defenders.

After being defeated by the 80th Brigade, the 26th Regiment of the th Division of the Japanese Army joined the main force of the th Division and turned to attack Songlindian south of Zhuozhou, attempting to cross the Juma River and implement a roundabout encirclement of the Chinese th Route Army.

After a fierce battle, the Japanese 116th Division defeated the Chinese 116th Division and crossed the Caohe River defense line on September 9 (historically it was September 24, because of the strong intervention of the First Anti-Japanese Army, the Japanese delayed the completion of their military objectives by ten days.) and threatened Baoding City from the north.

On September 9, the 26th Army was attacked from both sides as the Japanese successfully crossed the Juma River and retreated into Zhuozhou City on the same day.

On September 9, the Second Regiment of the First Regiment of the Fifth Brigade arrived in Fangshan area outside Zhuozhou and heard heavy gunfire.

A regimental commander ordered his troops to stop advancing and wait for the scouts' findings.

不一会儿侦察兵前来报告：前方孙连仲的26路军47师正在房山与日方20师团交战。鬼子20师团出动了多辆坦克和装甲车。47师情况不容乐观。

The commander of the first regiment ordered the first regiment to reinforce Fangshan immediately, and the second regiment served as a reserve force ready to provide reinforcement at any time.

At this time, the planes of the 47th Squadron of the Japanese had just bombed the Fangshan position of the 47th Division. There was no intact fortification on the Fangshan line. The soldiers of the 20th Division lay in the broken fortifications and used light weapons to resist the crazy attack of the Japanese th Division.

The commander of a regiment immediately ordered the regiment's heavy artillery unit to advance to the front line and prepare for battle as soon as the enemy's planes left the battlefield. He then took the special agent company to Fangshan to report the situation to the commander of the 47th Division, Pei.
