In Zhujia Town.

At the command center of the Japanese Infantry Brigade, the Japanese Major Captain was ordering several Japanese correspondents around him to send telegrams to his brigade headquarters.

In Zhujia Town and defending several nearby towns is a small Japanese independent mixed brigade, the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade of the Central China Front Army of Little Japan, the brigade leader Saburo Sakurai. The brigade was also called the Sakurai Brigade, which was established half a year ago.

The Sakurai Brigade is responsible for the defense between the west of Shanghai, Jiaxing and Shanghai, and forms the first line of defense outside the west of Shanghai.

After several main divisions of the Central China Front Army of Japan were transferred to Southeast Asia, the troops that were added were mostly Type B Division and Type C Division, and even several independent mixed brigades were formed.

Among the several independent mixed brigades established by the Central China Front Army in recent times, the equipment level of the independent mixed 2nd Brigade is relatively good, and it is equipped with a lot of heavy weapons, including war defense artillery, anti-aircraft machine guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, as well as some mountain cannons, infantry cannons and other weapons.

Outside the town, there were tanks and armored vehicles of the newly formed 6th Army. The Japanese Grand Captain who received the news immediately reported the situation and reported it urgently, with the intention of asking for help.

Several Japanese correspondents were still sending reports, and a Japanese lieutenant hurriedly ran in and reported anxiously in front of his captain: "Captain, all the Imperial Army are not good. At the beginning of the battle, all these Imperial Army were running away."

"Baga, this damn Imperial Army."

The Japanese brigade captain was very angry. There was a regiment of the puppet army in Zhujia Town, and his own infantry brigade, with a total number of more than 3,000 people. It can be said that he was a heavy defense. However, if all these puppet troops ran away, then he would only be his own infantry brigade.

The guns and cannons outside were very fierce, and even in his own brigade command, the Japanese captain felt a little deafening. Obviously, the battle outside the town was already very fierce and was very close to him.

Sure enough, after only three or five minutes, another Japanese officer hurried in and reported with great grief: "Captain, our defense line outside the town has been completely lost. Our troops have also suffered heavy losses. Now, the large armored vehicles of the newly-organized 6th Army have entered the town."

Upon hearing this, the Japanese captain's face changed. He was far from expecting that he had built a solid artillery tower and equipped with more than a dozen 37mm war defense cannons. In addition, he also built a lot of other fortifications, which were vulnerable.

After thinking for a moment, the Japanese captain issued an order to retreat and shouted loudly to the Japanese in the command center: "Retreat, retreat quickly."

Since an armored vehicle has already begun to enter the town, if he doesn't retreat, it will be too late. He issued a ten thousand retreat order, and the Japanese captain hurriedly walked out with his command knife.

After leaving the command center, it was the street of the town. Several large trucks had already been parked on the street. As soon as they arrived on the street, the Japanese captain hurriedly climbed into the cab of one of the large trucks and ordered the Japanese to drive quickly.

Seeing this, the other Japanese soldiers immediately rushed to climb up the truck. They were rushing to the top. Soon, these big trucks were full of Japanese soldiers. The trucks had already started, and some Japanese were chasing them up.

Outside the town.

The tanks and armored vehicles of the Third Tank Regiment have almost surrounded the entire Zhujia Town. Most of the Tank Battalion and the Second Battalion have eliminated the remaining Japanese soldiers outside the town. The soldiers of the Mechanical and Infantry Battalion began to enter the town and prepared to eliminate the Japanese in the town.

The Tank Battalion and the Mechanical Infantry Battalion are all four units, which means four companies under its jurisdiction. The Tank Battalion has four tank companies under its jurisdiction, each battalion has 46 tanks, and the Mechanical Infantry Battalion has four companies under its jurisdiction, two tank companies, and two mechanized infantry companies. The Mechanical Infantry Battalion is equipped with a total of more than 20 tanks and more than 20 armored vehicles. The armored vehicles are mainly M3 semi-tracked armored personnel carriers.

Jibuying entered the town along the road. At the entrance of the town, the Japanese also built fortifications. Many sandbags formed two rings on the left and right. Both rings were equipped with machine guns. Each ring was a Type 92 heavy machine gun and two crooked machine guns. In addition, there were some rifle soldiers, a total of dozens of Japanese.

Seeing a large number of tanks and armored vehicles coming, these Japanese devils were so scared that they were a little pale. Some were preparing to escape into the town, and some were wearing machine guns and shooting at the warriors' tanks and armored vehicles.

The bullets fired by the Japanese made the lead M4 Sherman tanks jingle and Mars exploded. Seeing the Japanese shooting in vain, the soldiers inside the tank sneered in their hearts, and several tanks even fired at these Japanese.

Several M4 tanks had large gun barrels flashed, and several high-explosive bombs roared out, directly hitting the Japanese's two ring fortifications.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

With a few loud noises, these sandbags were blown away, and many of the Japanese in the ring fortifications were blown away, like broken sacks, flying far away with the explosion air waves, falling heavily in the distance.

Even those machine guns were blown away and flew away crookedly. After several consecutive shots, at least half of these dozen Japanese devils were killed by the main cannons of the tank. Seeing this, the rest fled one after another.

Several M3 half-track armored vehicles next to them were not far from these Japanese. Seeing the Japanese running, the light and heavy machine guns on these armored vehicles began to fire.

There were about a dozen Japanese soldiers who escaped, and they had just turned around and didn't run far away. They were hit by dense machine gun bullets.

Tanks and armored vehicles from the Jibu Battalion entered Zhujia Town along the highway, advanced on the streets of the town, shooting and killing all the Japanese who could see them.

On one M3 half-tracked tank, a large number of soldiers got out of the car, carrying Thomson's submachine guns, followed their armored vehicles, and used the cover of the armored vehicles to start to clear out the Japanese in the town.

Suddenly, there were constant gunfire in the town.

This road leading to the town enters from the west end of the town, passes from the east end of the town, and then leads to Shanghai. Not far from the east end of the town, there are several Japanese trucks driving slowly on the road, and each truck is full of Japanese.

This highway has not been destroyed for the time being, but the road conditions are not very good. In addition, each truck is seriously overloaded and full of Japanese devils. These trucks stagger when driving and look a little slow.

While riding in the driving, looking at the slow-moving truck, the Japanese captain was so angry that he almost vomited blood. At such a slow speed, he would soon be caught up by the tanks of the newly-organized 6th Army.

Sure enough, many Japanese on the truck found that they were chasing behind them. This was a tank of a tank company. 11 M4 tanks were driving over at high speed, much faster than these Japanese trucks.

Some tanks did not even drive on the highway, but drove over the wasteland on both sides of the highway, and the muzzles of tanks seemed to be aiming at the target.

The Japanese on the cards were panicked, and several Japanese even jumped out of the truck and prepared to abandon the car and escape.

When he was driving in the truck, he heard the screams of horror behind him. The Japanese captain tightened his heart, his face changed, and he immediately asked loudly: "Baga! What's going on?"

A Japanese devil next to him leaned out of the cab and looked out, then said, "Captain, many tanks have caught up with him, what should we do?"

He caught up so quickly. The Japanese captain felt a little desperate in his heart. He looked at the slow-moving truck, then gritted his teeth and said, "Stop, abandon the car and run away, hurry up!"

As soon as the Japanese driver of the truck stepped on the accelerator, the Japanese colonel hurriedly got out. Seeing this, the Japanese Japanese began to jump down the car.

At this time, several tanks had already started firing.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

For such a large target as a large truck, the distance is relatively close. The gunners of these M4 tanks can hit this target with almost closed eyes. Suddenly, several shells roared and exploded.

A large truck was full of Japanese devils. Several Japanese devils had jumped out of the car and had already run twenty or thirty meters away. More Japanese devils were still in the car and were about to jump off the car.

With a violent explosion, a high-explosive bomb hit the truck. The huge power of the explosion almost shattered the truck. Several wheels and several broken iron sheets flew far away with the explosion.

More of the corpses of the Japanese devils were killed by the Japanese devils. Many of them flew high and fell heavily in the distance. The Japanese devils in the car were killed by the bomb.

The Japanese who ran twenty or thirty meters away felt the violent explosion and looked back and saw a large truck that was almost a pile of wreckage. The large number of corpses scattered around the truck were immediately frightened and their faces turned pale. In an instant, their backs were covered with cold sweat.

Another big truck was full of Japanese devils. As soon as he stopped, the Japanese devils were about to jump down. Suddenly, violent explosions sounded one after another. Three and four tanks aimed at the big truck and fired almost at the same time.

Suddenly, the big truck was blown to pieces, with almost no amount of slag left. All the 20 or 30 Japanese devils on the truck were blown to death, and some were even blown into several pieces.

The Japanese captain who had just jumped out of the truck and ran more than ten meters away saw that many tanks had fired, his face turned a little pale, turned around and looked at it hurriedly, and then ran wildly at the fastest speed.

There are three large trucks that have not been destroyed for the time being. Seeing this, the Japanese in the car jumped down the car desperately and then ran away as fast as possible.
