The common people found seven or eight Japanese spies in just a few minutes.

This made the Japanese spies who were not very active before tremble and dared not act rashly.

They regretted it at this time, and had known that they had just caused chaos and ran away. At this time, everyone was surrounded by three layers of Chinese soldiers inside and outside, and they couldn't run away even if they wanted to.

Colonel Yamamoto, who had been in the old man's team and escaped the disaster, sighed helplessly when he saw this scene.

Because he knew it, at least half of his subordinates would be lost here.

He hated so much that the young officer was so cunning that he had deceived him.

"Rest in peace, warriors of the empire! I, Yamamoto, will definitely avenge you."

The old devil Yamamoto whispered harsh words, and then slowly disappeared at the city gate!

At the same time, with the 44th Division's guard company joining, the search for Japanese spies was very fast. It took only half an hour to arrive, and there were 15 Japanese spies in total, and one of them ran away and were all caught.

Eight of them were shot dead, and seven were left with bruised noses and swollen faces by the common people, tied up their hands and knelt on the ground.

The Dragon Boat Festival is never ruthless to the Japanese spies, and after the interrogation is fruitless, they will all be shot on the spot.

In fact, I guessed that no one except the leaders of these Japanese spies knew what their specific tasks were, and who would they connect with when they arrived in Changshu City.

So if you continue to interrogate, there will be no result. It is better to shoot it directly to shock the Japanese who are plaguing the city so that they dare not act rashly.

At the same time, Chen Yong finally had the opportunity to come to see Dragon Boat Festival. He saluted: "The commander of the 44th Division - Chen Yong, have met the special envoy."

Returning the Dragon Boat Festival: "The 88th Division, the head of the independent regiment directly under the division - Dragon Boat Festival. First, be assigned by the chairman to come for inspection and rectify the defense of Changshu. Please give me some advice."

"The special commissioner is serious. You just came to Changshu and found the traces of Japanese spies. Are you resourceful and wise? "

Chen Yong flattered politely. But when he heard about Dragon Boat Festival, this was the scene.

As a top student in the Yunnan martial arts lecture hall, Chen Yong was also in the position of a teacher. In his eyes, what is the Dragon Boat Festival? He is just a hairy child from the head of the committee.

What's more, he had actually noticed the matter about Japanese spies. However, his troops were limited, so he couldn't draw his hands to deal with them.

A large number of refugees need guidance, and important facilities in the city need people to guard them, all of which require people.

As for those patrol policemen, if they could catch Japanese spies, Chen Yong would not be bothered. They were just a bunch of wine bags.

So in Chen Yong's heart, Dragon Boat Festival was just a coincidence. And he also believed that there were far more than these Japanese spies.

But since the Dragon Boat Festival was sent by the Chairman, he would give him some face. And he also wanted to borrow soldiers from the Dragon Boat Festival.

Thinking of this, Chen Yong smiled even more warmly and said to the Dragon Boat Festival: "The special commissioner, we have to work hard all the way, please hurry up and ask in the city."

Duan Duan nodded and said, "Okay, our city said, but I want to arrange the people entering the city first. Since I have promised them, I must do it."

Chen Yong said: "What's the difficulty? I'll let Staff Xiao do this and I will do it properly. Please!"

"please!"

The two sides gave in, and then the group came to the command center of the 44th Division.

Chen Yong asked someone to watch the tea, chatted with Dragon Boat Festival for a few words, and then began to talk about the current situation with Dragon Boat Festival.

Chen Yong marked the battle map with pencil and said: Yesterday, at dawn on the 16th, the 38th Japanese Regiment launched an attack on Fushan Town again.

At around 6 o'clock, its vanguard deployed on the east side of Fushan and fought fiercely with the 76th Division of the defender Wang Lingyun.

The fierce battle lasted until 11:00 yesterday morning. Later, the third Japanese Navy mine team joined the battle and bombarded Fukuyama with naval guns to support infantry operations.

However, after our army's tenacious resistance, the Japanese army's offensive still made no progress.

At 15:00 p.m., the 38th Regiment Captain, Shizuji Susukawa, suddenly changed his strategy for unknown reasons, and prompted his command headquarters to quickly take the shortcut and turn towards Changshu.

Our army discovered its dynamics and bit its first brigade, making it difficult for it to escape. We had to continue fighting around Fushan.

The battle lasted until midnight. With our continuous and fierce counterattacks, the 1st Battalion of the 38th Regiment was in a situation where the ammunition and food were exhausted. That night, Liu Shangzhi's 56th Division was ordered to send two regiments of troops to reinforce Fushan, which made the 38th Regiment of the Japanese unable to move.

News from the military headquarters said that the reason why they entangled the 38th Regiment at all costs was mainly to gain enough time for the Changshu front line.

Special commissioner, come to see. At about 5 a.m. yesterday, the Chongteng Detachment took the opportunity of the 98th Division and the 171st Division to hand over the Caojia Village position and detoured to the left wing of the 98th Division with one.

But our army was not a good meal, so we were just guarding against the Japanese. The 98th Division killed a retaliation and ate the Japanese's vanguard in one bite.

Although the rest of the Japanese fled back, they also suffered heavy losses.

After dawn, the Japanese regrouped, and the Chongteng Detachment and the 33rd Regiment attacked from the northeast, east and southeast directions to Jinjia Village, Shidun and Wuqu Towns.

Our army's 171st Division, 98th Division and 13th Division guarded national defense fortifications and organized a strong fire net to resist tenaciously.

After a fierce battle in the morning, the Japanese army made no progress in the frontal attack. They could only cross the river near the garden southwest of Shidun, attempting to copy our army's back.

Starting at noon, the Japanese heavy artillery concentrated 8 150mm cannons, 16 100mm cannons fired violently at the positions near the stone pier and Sanli Bridge, and used armor-piercing bombs to destroy our army's bunkers.

At around 13 o'clock, the Chongteng Detachment finally broke through the position of Jinjia Village of the 171st Division and attempted to attack Yushan. General Luo immediately transferred the 132nd Brigade of our troops to launch a counterattack against the Japanese army.

The 263rd Regiment of the 132nd Brigade attacked from Tengjia Village, Wujia Village, Jintong Temple line to Lujiaxiang and Doujia Village, and the 264th Regiment attacked from Lijiaqiao and Jiangjiabang line to Jiangjia Village and Huyuan.

After an afternoon of fierce fighting, our army finally repelled the Japanese army and successfully occupied the Jintong Temple to the front line of Zhongguo Temple to confront the Japanese army.

At 21 o'clock that night, the Chongteng Detachment fought repeatedly with our army and captured Yang Jingshang from Shidun's right wing. Then Yang Jing went north to attack Shidun fiercely. An infantry company and a machine gun company of the 292nd Brigade of the 98th Division of the defending army were killed and forced to move to the second-line position.

At 22:00, part of the Japanese 33rd Regiment attacked Wuqu Town again, but was still repelled by the 13th Division.

At this time, the 19th Brigade, the subsequent 16th Division, had landed near Baimakou and was ordered to go through Meili Town to advance to Changshu to support the battle. The 13th Division was blocked by our army due to the harsh road conditions along the river bank, and the 26th Brigade and the 19th Regiment of the Mountain Artillery were in great chaos.

Earlier, after being ordered to attack Xiejiaqiao north of Changshu, it suddenly lost contact. It is said that it was completely wiped out, and the specific situation is unknown.

"hehe!"

Hearing this, Dragon Boat Festival laughed twice.

Chen Yong was puzzled and thought that he had taken the wrong medicine for Dragon Boat Festival. But he didn't know that the 103rd Japanese Brigade had been wiped out.

At this time, Chen Yong continued: "Last evening, the enemy 104th Regiment headed to Xiejiaqiao, and the battle situation is still unknown.

Most of the messages I receive now are news from the 48th Army, 39th Army, and 18th Army.

The 18th Army said: At the southern end of the Wufu Line, the 6th Division of the Japanese army was moving from Kunshan to south of Taihu Lake. The remaining 9th Division took the 6th Brigade as the vanguard and continued to attack from Kunshan to the west. The brigade commander Yoshihiro Akiyama took the 35th Regiment in front and the 7th Regiment in back, and Yu Fuxiao began to launch a fierce attack on our 36th Division position.

The 36th Division suffered heavy casualties and could only adopt the tactics of fighting step by step, temporarily delaying the Japanese.

However, although Wu Fu's position was relatively stable yesterday, the head of the Third War Zone had already made long-term plans.

The retreat of the Battle of Songhu cannot be repeated. Now our army has started preparations for the transfer to the Xicheng Line in advance.

The 9th and 19th Army in the southern section of the Wufu Line were ordered to transfer the main force to the Xicheng Line one after another. The requirement for defensive battles near Changshu was "to stay for at least until the 19th."

My 44th Division was ordered to defend Changshu. But I still have no specific plan for how to defend it.

If my 44th Division is still in a full-time state, let alone just three days, even ten days, I would be sure.

But unfortunately, in the battles that lasted several days, the two brigades of our 44th Division are now fighting not even a single brigade.

The soldiers on the periphery were probably unable to come back. Now, the troops I can mobilize are less than three regiments except for the division guard company.
Chapter completed!
