Chapter 142: Fierce Battle at Nanxun Road (2)

When the battle in Zhujiadun started, the Japanese Jiangnan West Advance Corps divided into three routes. The Hatan Detachment and the 9th Division advanced west from Ruichang and attacked Yangxin along the river. The 101st Division attacked along the Ruitong Highway (Ruichang to Tongshan), and the 27th Division followed up. Luo Zhuoying's troops repeatedly fought with the Japanese invaders on this line, but failed to completely withstand the Japanese advancement. The 15th Division and the 33rd Division focused on dealing with the Xue Yue Corps in the Ninth War Zone, which were crowded with heavy troops on the Ruiwu Highway. The Japanese 106th Division attacked the De'an line and was subjected to the tenacious resistance of the 8th Army and the 64th Army, and the progress was slow.

Zhu Jiadun and the Japanese Colonel Heimu attacked several times, but were all shot back by the Preparatory Second Division. According to the plan, the Colonel Heimu's corps would capture the Cheqiao and then occupy Nanyi and cut off the Ruiwu Highway. The 33rd Division was attacking the top of Henggang with all its strength, and was almost about to cut off the Ruiwu Highway. Colonel Heimu knew that his corps was trapped in the hilly area and was not good for him for a long time, so he made up his mind to occupy Zhu Jiadun and break through the ** interception.

The Japanese army once again covered the nameless mound with fierce artillery fire. The narrow hills were almost overturned. After several battles, the ** soldiers of a platoon suffered heavy casualties. Battalion Commander Li Xiangjiu quickly reinforced a platoon from the village. In order to reduce casualties, platoon leader Lu Bin led his brothers to reinforce from the back mountain of the village. He climbed several hillsides in succession and entered the battlefield from the traffic trench behind the mound. Platoon leader Lu Bin looked at the surviving soldiers in the artillery hole, and only 9 people were left alive. Among them, Platoon Commander Tang Dong was seriously injured and still fought to the death. He was very happy to see Platoon Commander Lu coming. "Brother, you will leave these brothers to you. You must defend the position."

Lu Bin looked at Tang Dong's pale face because of excessive blood loss, "Brother, don't worry! The battalion commander knew that you were fighting well, so I won't let me fight with you." After saying that, he swept his eyes over every soldier in the anti-cannon hole. There was no fear on his face, and he was quite calm. They saw too much life and death on the battlefield. At this moment, these remaining soldiers had only one idea in their minds, that is, kill a few more Japanese soldiers.

The cannon sound stopped, and Lu Bin shouted, "Brothers! Enter the position!" The first one rushed out of the anti-cannon hole. The position was filled with floating soil. When you stepped on it, your feet were sinking into it. The dust flew, and the soldiers entered the trenches with deep and shallow feet. The trenches had been filled, and everyone pulled the floating soil around them, roughly digging out a pit that could be lying down, and just lay on the battle position, quietly waiting for the Japanese attack.

A squadron of Japanese troops attempted to move to ambush under the mound when their artillery fire was bombarded, but was intercepted by the firepower of the bunkers in the village. In order to defend Zhu Jiadun, Li Xiangjiu had a lot of effort. He built a bluestone bunker and a stump on the edge of the village to control the large rice field in front of the village. The firepower was connected to the mound. When the Japanese attacked, the firepower in the village could support the mound and cause damage to the Japanese army from the side. As soon as the Japanese moved, Battalion Commander Li Xiangjiu in the village understood the intention of the Japanese army. Commander of the bunkers in the village used firepower to intercept the Japanese army who were attempting to attack. The firepower of the four bunkers crossed to shoot, forming a tight firepower net. The Japanese soldiers moving in the rice fields had to give up the sneak attack and ran back.

The sound of artillery stopped and the Japanese attack began. This time, the Japanese army changed the attack route and attacked the dirt mound from the direction of the road to avoid the direction of the rice fields. Although the rice fields were wide and easy to unfold fire, it was difficult to walk under the feet. In addition, the fire support in the village of ** made the attack more difficult. A squadron of Japanese soldiers hugged and moved to the road. After walking a few steps, the ** on the dirt mound could see the movements of the Japanese army clearly. Under the command of the platoon leader Lu Bin, the machine gun "dadada" roared. The dense and fierce firepower defeated more than a dozen Japanese troops in front. The Japanese army was forced to lie on the road and crawled forward.

The mortars in the village roared at the right time, "bang bang", and the shells flew straight into the Japanese soldiers like eyes. "bang bang" rolled up a piece of flesh and blood, and the Japanese soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Colonel Kuromu had a dark face and ordered the attack to be suspended helplessly. The attack on the Zhujiadun Highway failed. Kuromu calmly observed the battlefield situation. Behind the village were mountains, and the mountains were connected to the mounds that controlled the road. As long as the village was taken down, he could still go around the back of the village.

The idea was made, so he changed the attack plan and directly attacked Zhujiadun Village. Colonel Kuromu took out three squadrons in one breath and attacked from the east and middle of the village. The center of the attack was placed on the east side of the village. This was the remnant of the mountain, surrounded by rice fields, and there was a large pond at the entrance of the village. The way to the village was winding past the pond. Because the village was a half-moon shape, the fire support in the middle and west of the village was relatively weak, and it only relied on its own defensive fortifications to the east side of the village.

The cunning Colonel Black Wood ordered the artillery to measure the ruler that bombarded the fortifications on the east side of the village. Before attacking, the artillery was concentrated to bombard the mounds in the west of the village, causing the illusion that they still had to attack the mounds. Ten minutes after the artillery was bombarded, and the artillery suddenly turned and bombed at the east side of the village. The bunkers on the east side of the village were shot up under the fierce artillery fire. Five plum blossom-shaped bunkers were built to form a cross of fire. There were also a burial of a trenches at the entrance of the village to connect the trenches. The huge bluestone bunkers were indeed strong. The Japanese shells exploded and only some stones were gnawed off, and the stone chips were flying, and the main body did not suffer much damage.

The artillery fire broke out for forty minutes, and two Japanese infantry squadrons began to attack. One squadron attacked from the front, and the other squadron attacked the village from the rice fields east of the village.

The pond outside the village is about 120 meters away from the entrance of the village. The Japanese soldiers rushed past the pond outside the village with guns and shouted. The bunker at the entrance of the village suddenly opened fire. The bunker had three floors, two light machine guns and several rifles at the top, with a light machine gun and a squad of infantry in the middle, and a heavy machine gun and five rifles at the bottom. The fierce firepower aimed at the Japanese soldiers charging by the pond at the entrance of the village. In one round of shooting, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers fell head-on in the pond. The rest of the Japanese

The soldiers had no choice but to lie in the rice fields, beside the pond, and slowly climbed forward. However, the fort at the entrance of the village was high, the rice fields outside the village were flat, and the firepower on the fort firmly controlled the range of 300 meters. The Japanese military uniforms were yellow and unrestrained in the Jiangnan area, and the Japanese army in the rice fields seemed to be piles of feces. ** The rifleman calmly pulled the bolts and pointed them at the Japanese soldiers squirming in the rice fields one by one. More than a dozen Japanese soldiers were killed in the rice fields and became fertilizer.

The rice fields in the pond outside the village were soon stained with blood, but the Japanese infantry didn't even touch the village door. The Japanese squadron, which was detouring eastward in the rice fields, had a hard time. They rushed into the rice fields and attacked the village with deep and shallow feet. Strangely, ** did not fight back. The squadron leader was overjoyed and shouted: "Run, rush into the village, Miss Hua!" The Japanese soldiers wanted to take stimulants, and Ula stepped forward with his legs.

As they were about to rush out of the rice fields, suddenly, the crisp Czech light machine gun "dou" sounded, followed by the dull "dou" sound of the Maxim water-cooled heavy machine gun. More than 20 Japanese soldiers were immediately knocked down. When they stood in the middle of the rice fields, they suddenly realized that there was no barrier around them, and there were flat rice fields around them. The bunkers in the village were condescending, and fierce firepower enveloped them. The powerful firepower net harvested their lives like a sickle.

The leader of the Japanese squadron led the team cursed: "The cunning Chinese people only opened fire when we were about to rush out! There was no cover here." No matter how much he scolded, his life was important. The leader of the squadron jumped and lay in the rice field, with mud splashing on his face. He wiped it with a black and slippery mud wiped his face.

A veteran of ** saw his epaulette in the bunker. He knew he was an official and stared at him. The veteran aimed at the Japanese squadron leader lying in the rice fields. He squinted his eyes and put his finger on the trigger, staring at him. When the squadron leader looked up slightly to observe the situation on the battlefield, at this moment, the veteran pulled the trigger decisively, "bang", the bullet rotated at high speed and flew out of the muzzle. At less than 300 meters, the Japanese squadron leader almost watched the bullet fly towards him, and there was no time to dodge. "Ah," the Japanese squadron leader screamed, his head was blown up, and the bullet drilled into the vicinity of the temple. The huge kinetic energy lifted half of his face, and red and white splashed all over the ground.
