Zhu Xiwen was commanding a dozen scouts from the watchtower to deal a head-on blow to the charging enemy. The Japanese's 38-gun squad was not to be trifled with. Their hit rate was also very high. Six patrol officers were unfortunately killed by the head shots. The remaining patrol officers continued to shoot at the Japanese with homemade rifles. The Japanese cannons continued to fire at the shore. One of the shells hit the watchtower, and Zhu Xiwen and his team members were all killed.
Ouyang Feilong used his sniper rifle to stop the Japanese. He took down one of them with one shot. The feeling of satisfaction in his heart was one word. This was much more enjoyable than the usual " Crossfire " game. After all, the game was a virtual scene, and traveling through history to the past was real life. Although his life was in danger, and if he sacrificed himself, he would not be able to return to the future world he lived in. However, Ouyang Feilong was furious when he thought of the atrocities of the Japanese army in the Nanjing Massacre. He wanted to kill people, kill the Japanese. It was illegal to kill the Japanese of the present day. Moreover, the Japanese of the present day were not the Japanese who had committed crimes in the past. Therefore, only by traveling back in time to 1937 could he truly achieve revenge. Only then would he feel that killing was not illegal but also satisfying.
Ouyang Feilong raised his sniper rifle and wanted to kill a few Japanese officers, but because the distance was too far and the weather was foggy, he could not do it. He could only aim at the Japanese in front of him and almost let their heads explode. He did not count exactly how many Japanese he had killed. He felt that there were probably dozens of them. No matter how many, he would just kill as many as he could.
The enemy had already noticed that there were snipers in the forest of the Kanayama Guards. Because the Japanese soldiers in front were always shot down by bullets from the same direction, they quickly raised their rifles and fired randomly into the dense forest. Ouyang Feilong had no choice but to retreat a little and constantly change his position so that the enemy could not find his target.
Commander Sun commanded the brothers of the 62nd Division to defend the front line of the Golden Mountain Guards. The soldiers around him kept falling, and there were also injured soldiers who were still fighting. The fierce battle had lasted for nearly two hours, but the reinforcements from the 62nd Division had yet to arrive. The phone has been blown up by the enemy, unable to contact the division commander Tao Liu, what should we do? Commander Sun thought of a countermeasure. More and more enemy troops swarmed over, getting closer and closer. Company Commander Guo ordered the artillery to fire shells at the enemy, but it took time to load the shells, aim, and fire. The Japanese kept charging forward, and they formed a triangular echelon. Each team had three to five people, so the damage of the artillery shells was limited.
There were still dozens of brothers left in the infantry company. They fired with machine guns and sent more than a dozen Japanese in the front row to the afterlife. However, the Japanese were not afraid of death. They continued to charge forward and rushed to our position. Commander Sun shouted," Put on the bayonet." Dozens of brothers jumped out of the trenches at the same time and engaged in a fierce hand-to-hand battle with the Japanese. Both sides suffered casualties, but they finally repelled the enemy.
Gu Shoufu stood on the deck of the warship and observed the battlefield with binoculars. He said angrily,""Baka, what kind of troops are the Chinese holding the ground? "So tenacious…" Yanagawa, who was standing beside him, said gently,"You're so stubborn.""No matter what army it is, it has its weakness. Gu Shoufu, your army is brave and commendable, but they lack brains. You need your brain to fight a war." Gu Shoufu's mustache slanted to one side as he said unwillingly,"General, do you have a better idea?”
"Deviant tactics," Yanagawa said gently.”As he spoke, he pointed at the two sides of the Golden Mountain Guards 'formation. Gu Shoufu understood and stood at attention."Ha Yi! I'll immediately give the order."
As a result, in addition to the direct attack on Jinshan Wei, a small group of Japanese troops outflanked Jinshan Wei from the east and west.
Ouyang Feilong hid in the forest on the east side of the Golden Mountain Guards. He fought while retreating. He watched as the Golden Mountain Guards were attacked from both sides, but he was helpless. Only a dozen soldiers of the 62nd Division remained. They held the belief that they would live and die with the camp and refused to take even half a step back.
The Japanese troops moved in groups toward our position, getting closer and closer. Our soldiers were almost out of bullets. They were preparing for the next round of hand-to-hand combat. This would be the last hand-to-hand combat.
Commander Guo realized that there were only 25 rounds left. These were zero-line cluster bombs, which exploded as soon as they were fired and had a high lethality within 500 meters. This was a cannonball that Commander Guo had deliberately left behind to perish together with the enemy.
The Japanese were getting closer and closer. One thousand meters, eight hundred meters, six hundred meters, five hundred meters…
Under Commander Guo's command, 25 shells were fired within a minute. Commander Guo and his four artillery brothers died together with dozens of Japanese soldiers within 500 meters. The bodies of our artillery soldiers and the dozens of Japanese soldiers were thrown into the air in the thick smoke. They scattered like flowers scattered by the gods, and fell like branches blown off by the wind. It was impossible to tell whose body parts they were...
The remaining Japanese soldiers rushed up again. Commander Sun led the remaining brothers to engage in a life-and-death battle with the enemies that were several times their number. Our soldiers were all dead, and they all maintained their battle postures when they died: Some of them were stabbed in the abdomen by the enemy and held the enemy's bayonet tightly with both hands, maintaining an upright posture. Some were stabbed in the back by the enemy, and the enemy's head was chopped off. The headless enemy's corpse was still holding a bayonet, forming an H position...
The seaside positions were all occupied by the Japanese army, and 100,000 Japanese troops gathered at the seaside to wait for orders.
Yanagawa ordered," Shoufu Tani, you will lead your 6th division to the northeast and destroy the retreating Chinese army from Shanghai from the rear. Support the Songhu battlefield. After completing the mission, advance to Nanjing from the middle."”"Ha Yi!" Gu Shoufu stood at attention.
Yanagawa ordered again," Niu Shima-kun, lead your 18th division to the northwest and occupy Jiashan as soon as possible. Then, advance to Nanjing from the left.”"Ha Yi!"”
Yanagawa said gently to the two major generals,""Loyalty to the Emperor is the duty of the Imperial Army of Japan. The task assigned to you is the Emperor's will and also the arrangement of the Central China Army Commander Matsui Ishigane. I hope you can complete the mission well. Kunizaki-kun and I will stay at the back of the beach. The 114th Division will land here in a few days. We will receive them here.”
The commander of the 367th Regiment of the 62nd Division, Zhang Kongyi, was ordered by his division commander, Tao Liu, to lead the entire regiment to reinforce the Golden Mountain Guards. However, due to the rainy and foggy weather for several consecutive days, the road was muddy and difficult to walk on. In addition, the enemy planes in the sky dropped bombs on them from time to time, and the entire group of soldiers could not reach the front line of the Golden Mountain Guards in time.
At noon on November 5th, 1937, they finally arrived at Zhangyan Town. As soon as they arrived at Zhangyan Town, Commander Zhang Kongyi ordered the entire regiment to build fortifications as soon as possible, ready to block the Japanese army that was advancing north.
At the same time, Battalion Commander Wang Zilong was ordered to arrive at Zhelin Town. All the officers and soldiers of the battalion stepped up their construction work, preparing to stop the Japanese army from advancing eastward.
Gu Shoufu led the Japanese army into two paths, one heading north and approaching Zhangyan Town, the other heading east and approaching Zhelin Town.
After receiving the order from Commander Tao Guang, the commander of the 63rd Division, Chen Guangzhong, did not dare to slack off. He personally led the 378th Regiment to reinforce the Golden Silk Bridge position and ordered the commander of the 373rd Regiment, Li Bojiao, to support the Golden Mountain Guard position.
When Li Bojiao led the entire regiment to the Golden Mountain Guards, the position was already in the enemy's hands. Regiment Commander Li ordered them to take back their position at all costs. After several failed attempts, they had no choice but to order Li Juemin and a few soldiers to build fortifications.
Division Commander Chen of the 63rd Division ordered the commander of the 378th Regiment, Tang Honghuai, to reinforce the position and organize a counterattack after arriving at the Golden Silk Bridge.
The commander of the 18th division of the Japanese army, Yoshishima Sadao, became even more crazy after occupying the front positions on both sides of the sea. He stepped up the offensive to the north and tried to reach Jiashan County within two days.
However, before they could gain a firm foothold, they were counterattacked by the 373rd Regiment of the 63rd Division. Both sides engaged in an intense battle.
The Japanese artillery battalion set up mortars. With the command of the commander, black smoke came out of the barrels of more than a dozen mortars. The shells drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed on the position of the 373rd Regiment. With a series of explosions, the soldiers of Regiment 373 suffered heavy casualties. Because the simple fortifications that had just been built were too shallow, they could not effectively protect them. Many soldiers just lay down on the ground. If the shells exploded not far away from them, they would definitely be in danger.
After a round of artillery fire, the Japanese infantry rushed toward our position with their 38-foot covers.
Li Bojiao led the way and organized the soldiers to fight bravely. The machine gunner beside him was shot in the head by the enemy and died. Commander Li threw down his pistol and picked up the machine gun of the soldier who had just died. He jumped into the trench and shouted,"Son of a b * tch, come on!”As he spoke, he fired at the Japanese army. A large number of the Japanese soldiers at the front fell like leaves being swept away by a strong wind.
Li Juemin quickly pulled Commander Li down the trench, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
The enemy launched another fierce attack.
In order to preserve the strength of the resistance, Regiment Commander Li decisively ordered,""Regiment Commander Li, lead the brothers and retreat first!”"Regiment Commander Li, you're the pillar of our regiment. Why don't you lead everyone away first?" Deputy Regiment Commander Li shouted excitedly.”
"This is an order!" Commander Li ordered sternly. Hurry up and retreat, or it'll be too late!"
Regiment Commander Li saluted Regiment Commander Li with a pained expression and said,""Yes, sir!"
Hence, Regiment Commander Li led the rest of his men out of the trenches. Regiment Commander Li and a few bodyguards brought up the rear.
Regiment Commander Li faced the ferocious enemy fearlessly. He retreated while fighting, covering his brothers as they retreated. The enemy charged wildly, and the sound of machine guns rang out. Commander Li was shot several times, but he still stood upright. His legs were half bent, and his hands were tightly holding the machine gun as he fired the last few bullets, sending the few devils at the front to the afterlife. Commander Li fell straight down and kept saying,"Retreat, retreat…"
Ouyang Feilong watched as Li Bojiao died heroically, but he had no choice but to retreat to the forest near the Golden Silk Bridge and wait for an opportunity to destroy the enemy.
Ouyang Feilong knew that it was impossible to reverse the historical situation by traveling through history to this era, and it was even more impossible to stop the Japanese army from advancing with his own strength. All he could do was to destroy a few more Japanese devils and save more people.
