Devil's Army

Captain Ren saw thick black smoke coming out of the tail of Captain Yin’s Hua Xia fighter plane, and the plane was a little out of control.

It turned out that Captain Yin had broken into the Japanese fighter group and shot down three Japanese fighters in succession. He was also hit by the besieged Japanese fighters one after another and flew to the other side of the mountain.

Some pilots said they saw Instructor Yin’s plane crash, and some pilots said they saw Instructor Yin parachuting before his plane crashed.

According to the subsequent descriptions of other pilots, the place where Captain Yin's plane crashed was a small forest. Both the Japanese and their soldiers were there, and the situation was very complicated and intertwined.

Now the Japanese ground attack on Xiaoguanzhuang Airport has begun.

Finally, regardless of whether Captain Yin had parachuted or crashed with the plane, Wu Lang had no extra troops to arrange, so he arranged for the Fifth Squadron of the Special Operations Team to search for Captain Yin's whereabouts in that direction.

After bombing Xiaoguanzhuang Airport, the Japanese bombers began to bomb the positions on the east, south and north sides of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport.

The 11th Mixed Brigade, which Wu Lang had been keeping an eye on, also began to attack Fengrun County, Panshan and Huangyaguan Great Wall positions.

No fighting has taken place at Sanchakou, Bailonggang Bridge and Toyota County because the Japanese 109th Division has not yet arrived in full force.

The outer positions of Dangyu Town were bombarded by heavy artillery from the elite Kuniaki Detachment of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army, and many fortifications collapsed. Under the fierce attack of the Kuniaki Detachment, they had to retreat to Dangyu Town. All the outer positions of Dangyu Town were lost.

At that time, the defense of Dangyu Town was mainly composed of the Second and Third Companies of the First Battalion of the Eleventh Brigade. The Second Company had fought repeatedly with the Japanese army in the outer positions, lost its combat effectiveness, and retreated into the town to rest.

When the Japanese Army's Kunizaki Detachment arrived at the outskirts of Dangyu Town, without rest, the artillery immediately launched a fierce bombardment of Dangyu Town.

After the bombing, the infantry began to attack Dangyu Town.

After the Japanese artillery bombardment stopped, the second company rushed to the city wall to block the Japanese attack.

The attack of the Japanese Kunisaki Detachment was repelled, and he immediately launched a second wave of fierce artillery bombardment. The infantry stepped on the artillery points and approached Dangyu Town.

At this time, the Japanese army had already bombed the Xiaoguanzhuang airport. Two Japanese bombers flew to Dangyu Town and participated in the bombing of the Dangyu Town garrison.

The soldiers of the second and third companies in Dangyu Town suffered heavy casualties under the double bombing of Japanese artillery and aircraft.

The Japanese Army's Kunizaki Detachment took the opportunity to blow up the city gate and rushed into Dangyu Town.

A H-1 bomber of the First Army took advantage of an opportunity, flew over Dangyu Town, and dropped bombs heavily on the attacking Kunizaki Detachment.

The soldiers of the second and third companies took advantage of the bombing of the Kunizaki Detachment by the First Army's aircraft and launched a swift counterattack, driving the Kunizaki Detachment that had entered the city out of Dangyu Town.

Two Japanese Type 95 fighters spotted a Type 1 H-1 bomber dropping bombs and quickly flew over.

The bomber of the First Army that was bombing the Japanese Kunizaki Detachment escaped quickly due to its speed.

The Japanese fighter planes missed their target, and then two bombers flew over and launched a massive bombing on Dangyu Town.

Soldiers of the Japanese Army's Kunizaki Detachment took the opportunity to rush into Dangyu Town again.

The soldiers of the second and third companies had to retreat while resisting, and retreated into the town to prepare for street fighting with the Japanese army.

It was already late at night, and fighting in the streets was extremely disadvantageous to the Japanese army. Major General Kunisaki Noboru, the commander of the 9th Brigade of the Japanese Army, ordered his troops to stop attacking and confront the devil troops across the street.

At 12 o'clock in the morning, the battalion commander who was good at night combat launched a large-scale sneak attack on the Japanese army.

Since the Japanese army had already established a firm foothold in Dangyu Town, this sneak attack failed to drive all the Japanese troops out of Dangyu Town, but it effectively killed the Japanese army's manpower.

At six o'clock the next morning, the Japanese Kunizaki Detachment launched another attack on the First Army under heavy artillery bombardment.

The mortars of the first battalion were all destroyed in the bombing by Japanese aircraft, and now they only have Type 40 rockets and light and heavy machine guns to stop the Japanese attack.

Japanese artillery and aircraft continued to bombard a battalion of soldiers hiding in a building.

A battalion of soldiers in the building were either hit by Japanese artillery shells or crushed under the rubble of the collapsed houses.

As a last resort, the battalion commander withdrew from Dangyu Town with the battalion suffering heavy casualties.

The Kunisaki Detachment of the Japanese Army successfully occupied Dangyu Town and planted a dog-skin plaster flag on the roof of the town government building in Dangyu Town.

The loss of Dangyu Town shortened the strategic depth to the north of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport by dozens of miles. At this time, there were only three fortifications left on the defense line to the north of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport.

The Japanese Army's Kunisaki Detachment rested in Dangyu Town until lunch, and then began to approach the Xiaoguanzhuang Airport.

The Japanese Kunisaki Detachment arrived at the first fortification inside the Xiaowangzhuang Airport at around 2:00 p.m. Without resting, they launched an attack on the first fortification of the First Army.

The first line of defense was guarded by the 3rd Company of the 3rd Regiment of the 11th Brigade. Facing the fierce bombing of the Kunizaki Detachment of the Japanese Army, they tried to stay close to the fortifications and avoid the Japanese artillery fire.

After the Japanese artillery bombardment, the Kunisaki detachment began to charge, with the machine gunners lying on the ground and firing continuously.

The soldiers of the third company were severely bombarded by the Japanese artillery fire, and suffered heavy casualties. Now they were under fierce attack from the Japanese army and their defense was becoming increasingly difficult.
