"Jiading! Jiading!... This is Chuanshakou... pointing forward at the beach..." Zhou Zhenqiang roared with all his might.

A broken voice was faintly heard amidst Ren Shihai's severe tinnitus.

"Enemy... The enemy's main force has landed! The naval guns are fierce! ... Our troops have suffered heavy casualties... Request... Request heavy firepower reinforcement!"

Zhou Zhenqiang's voice roared amidst the violent explosions around him, gradually being drowned out by the gunfire...

a long time. . .

The whole world is still groaning in pain in the aftermath of the explosion.

The huge smoke and dust had not yet dissipated, and the thick smoke and the salty sea fog mixed into a suffocating haze that covered the sky and the sun.

The air was scorching hot, filled with a sickening smell of burning, a pungent, bitter, sour, explosive smell, the stench of flesh being instantly scorched, and a more primitive, rusty, sweet smell of blood and viscera.

My ears felt like they were stuffed with cotton, and the only background sound was a continuous, sharp buzzing sound, which was the permanent mark left by heavy artillery tearing through my eardrums.

Zhou Zhenqiang struggled to get up from the half-flattened command trench that was almost flattened by the shock wave.

The cold mud and hot gravel filled his collar, mouth and nose, and he began to cough violently. Every cough caused a burning dull pain in his chest and abdomen.

His vision was blood-red and blurry. He blinked hard, but the salty muddy water mixed with the flowing blood blurred his vision.

He wiped it away fiercely with the back of his hand, and then he could barely see the scene around him clearly, a hell on earth.

The brothers who had rushed here with him a few hours ago, and the people who had frantically dug the ground and built defenses under his command, were no longer there.

The barely built mud and water defense line across the mudflat now looked like a low-quality sandbox that had been kicked several times by a giant, with terrifying deep pits and radial tear marks everywhere.

Several twisted and mutilated corpses lay on the edge of the crater, their limbs bent at impossible angles.

The upper body of a soldier who had just been dragged under the machine gun position was almost gone, leaving only the part below the waist, with his intestines hanging on the turned-over black soil beside him.

The young soldier with a Hunan accent who had been scolded by veteran Chen Changhe was lying in a shallow pit that had collapsed, his hands still in a futile attempt to protect the back of his head. Blood was oozing from his broken back and the back of his head, quickly staining the cold mud beneath him red.

The truck's steel plates, dismantled by the supply soldiers, lay alone and upside down in a deep pit, their edges twisted and red, etched with densely packed fragments and bits of bone and flesh. The air seemed stained red with blood, weighing heavily on everyone's lungs.

"Brigade Commander! Brigade Commander! The phone is disconnected! The line is broken!" Ren Shihai, a communications soldier with blood on his face, almost crawled over. His condition was very bad. Blood was still flowing from his left ear canal and his hearing in his right ear was greatly reduced. His eyes were filled with shock and confusion, and he was dull after the impact of the huge noise.

Zhou Zhenqiang didn't have time to look at the communications soldier beside him, because he was seeing his brothers around him starting to move one by one.

"Commander, are you okay?" People around him began to shout. They were guards who had recovered from the shelling.

I couldn't stop the tears from falling!

He thought all his brothers were dead... . . . Some were still alive! Some were still alive!

Zhou Zhenqiang let out tears and roared, "The Japanese are about to land! Grab your weapons! Fight them!" He pushed away the guards who were supporting him and roared at the top of his lungs. His voice was particularly harsh in the dead silence of the explosion ruins.

He pointed his finger at the sea, and as if in response to his scream, his temporarily obscured vision suddenly became clearer.

In the gaps between the thick smoke, on that deadly sea, the group of landing craft that covered the sky and the sun completed the final charge and accelerated!

Dozens of medium-sized motor boats, their sharp bows wedged fiercely into the soft mud of the shallows! The boats pitched violently and ran aground!

The baffle covering the bow of the boat dropped down heavily with a harsh groaning sound of metallic friction!

"Wow!"

The cold, turbid seawater immediately rushed into the cabin, reaching up to their calves. But this was no obstacle to the Japanese soldiers, who were already as fast as arrows from a bow.

"Your Majesty, get on board!" A frenzied roar pierced the dead silence after the explosion! Countless pairs of feet in thick-soled military boots plunged knee-deep into the icy, sticky muddy water!

"Kill them!" The first group of Japanese officers who landed on the beach and were waiting saw the subsequent reinforcements landing under the cover of artillery fire and the artillery fire stopped, so they raised their sabers and shouted.

The Sendai soldiers of the 2nd Division rushed out from the "Asama Maru" transport landing craft and took the lead in attacking!

These veterans of the Kwantung Army, known for their bravery, had their eyes burned red by slaughter and fame. Like wild beasts breaking free from their restraints, they howled and waded through mud as they launched the first wave of charges towards the Nationalist Army positions, which were shrouded in thick smoke and seemed dead silent!

The heavy bayonet of the Type 38 rifle flashed a chilling cold light in the thin sunlight filtering through the smoke.

The yellow military uniform was wet and stuck to the body, like a surging yellow wave on the beach!

Three hundred meters! The landing point was less than three hundred meters away from the shattered mudflat defense line!

"Hold on! Hold on! Shoot closer!" The voices of the surviving officers and non-commissioned officers and veterans rose and fell from the bomb craters and remaining bunkers, trying hard to gather the frightened soldiers who had almost lost their fighting spirit after being bombed by naval guns and aerial bombs.

At this critical moment!

"Boom, boom!" A dull thud exploded among the Japanese troops! A pillar of mud rose to a height of two or three feet!

It's a mortar! There's still one left!

Almost at the same time as the shells exploded, "Da da da da da da da!"

The dull and rhythmic sound of the Maxim water-cooled machine gun, like a giant beast tearing rags, instantly overwhelmed the chaos on the mudflats!

The crisp and continuous bursts of fire from the Czech-made ZB26 light machine gun suddenly joined the chorus!

It’s Chen Changhe!

This fierce veteran platoon leader, along with the few remaining soldiers around him who were not frightened by the artillery fire, suddenly straightened up when the Japanese army rushed into the range of 200 meters and their figures became clear in the thick smoke!

The well-maintained Czech light machine gun in Chen Changhe's hand seemed to have come to life. The muzzle moved steadily, pointing at the left wing where the Japanese troops were most densely packed!

"Die for me!" His roar was like a wounded tiger!

Three fierce tongues of fire suddenly met on the mudflat filled with thick smoke and death!

The deadly metal storm slammed into the frantically charging yellow tide!

The few Japanese soldiers rushing in the front were like being electrocuted!

The dense bullets instantly opened several or even dozens of terrifying holes in their bodies!

Blood mixed with fragments of internal organs and torn military uniform fabric spurted out from the torn torso, drawing a short and glaring scarlet trail against the gray background!

The huge impact of the heavy 7.92x57mm bullets made their entire bodies fall back violently, and then they fell into the cold mud and dirty sea water like cut wheat!

The soldiers behind him were caught off guard and tripped over!
