Jiaolong Ridge.

Chen Dalei and the third battalion commander returned to the front of the position and carefully inspected the position again.

Not long after.

There was a loud bang and exploded on the position.

"Arson~~~!"

"The devils are attacking!"

"Be careful of concealment!"

May 14, 1939, at exactly 1:00 pm.

The 23rd Regiment of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army launched another attack.

The artillery fire roared, and shells shot out angrily, directly suppressing the firepower of our army. The positions of the Xuefeng guerrillas were immediately swallowed by the surging flames.

The Xuefeng guerrillas were guerrillas after all, lacking heavy weapons. Faced with the fierce artillery fire of the Japanese army, they could not launch a counterattack and could only be passively beaten. The Japanese infantry took advantage of the situation and dispatched hundreds of people to launch a charge.

"Damn it, the Japanese fight so hard at one go. Do you want to destroy us in one go? Then I will let you taste the awesomeness!"

Chen Dalei put down the telescope in his hand and immediately issued a series of combat orders.

The third battalion commander understood and immediately shouted: "Brothers, let's show it!"

"Aoah!"

The soldiers who had already prepared were immediately launched a fierce counterattack against the Japanese army that was charging forward!

One of the few machine guns also emitted great power, especially grenades, which exploded among the Japanese army, building an indestructible firewall.

The Japanese army's charge was very brave. When its vanguard fell, the follow-up troops continued to surge, like locusts passing through the border.

In a blink of an eye, an hour passed.

The Xuefeng guerrillas stubbornly withstood the several charges of the Japanese army and killed hundreds of Japanese soldiers, but their own casualties were also quite serious. If there were no trenches and positions as support, the number of casualties in our army would be more. The soldiers of the Xuefeng guerrillas were very brave, but compared with elite troops like the 23rd Regiment of the Japanese Army, they were much weaker.

The Japanese army's troops, firepower, personnel combat literacy, etc. comprehensively suppressed the Xuefeng guerrillas.

Time passed by bit by bit, and two more hours passed in a blink of an eye.

Our army's positions were already broken by the Japanese army! The seemingly unbreakable fortifications sank several feet under the Japanese artillery fire, and were scorched earth. Countless dead bodies were lying on the ground, including our Japanese army.

More are the corpses of our soldiers!

The name of the elite of the 23rd Japanese Army Regiment is not in vain, its combat effectiveness is simply terrifying.

"Commander, all the brothers in the second company and the first row are dead!"

"Mad, I'm the only one left in my second row!"

"Damn the Japanese, go to her grandma~!"

The soldiers kept swearing and venting their inner anger.

The combat effectiveness of the 23rd Japanese Regiment is too strong.

"The living can still pick up the gun. Come with me. Let's fight with the Japanese devils!"

Chen Dalei shouted, led the way and rushed to the forefront of the position, pushed away the dead machine gunner, took over the heavy machine gun, and fired violently at the Japanese army.

At this moment, our army's position was in danger.

And Niujima Man, the commander of the 23rd Japanese Regiment, also had a gloomy face.

He was very unhappy!

"Baga, a mere hundred Tujia Eighth Route Army, actually stopped our army for 3 hours. It was a great shame. If you continue to attack, you must completely resolve the battle within 1 hour!"

"Hi!" The Japanese officers responded loudly.

All the Japanese officers and soldiers were holding their breath!

We are invincible!

We are the most elite corps of the Imperial Army of the Great Japanese, how can we be stopped by the mere 8th Route Army?

~~~~~~

512 Brigade and Travel Department.

At this moment, Ouyang, Liu Tongluo and others were actively mobilizing their troops to reinforce the Jiaolongling battlefield.

Liu Tongluo kept calling, "Jiang Daya, the battle situation of your regiment is very fierce. You don't need to emphasize to me. I'm not discussing with you now. Let me tell you, no matter what, you will immediately draw a company of troops for me and quickly reinforce Jiaolongling."

"Kong Jie, don't stare at me with the bearded and blowjob. I will send troops to reinforce the Xuefeng guerrillas. What, can't you draw a company? Well, your 885th Regiment can draw as much as you can draw now.

Remember, the speed must be fast. If you miss the opportunity to fight, let the Japanese 23rd Regiment rush across Jiaolong Ridge, see if I deal with you like this!"

"Li Yunlong, I know that your regiment is the farthest from the Jiaolong Ridge battlefield. Don't I know this? But now, you must send troops to reinforce immediately."

~~~~

Liu Tongluo was constantly mobilizing troops to reinforce the Jiaolongling battlefield. At the same time, Ouyang was also contacting the Longtou Detachment.

Order the Longtou Detachment, no matter how fierce the battle is or how tight the troops are, it is necessary to send troops to reinforce the Jiaolongling battlefield.

Now the entire 512th Brigade and the Longtou Detachment have allocated troops and the troops that cannot beocated. The purpose is to delay the 23rd Japanese Regiment for more than 12 hours.

Once the Jiaolong Ridge position is destroyed by the Japanese army, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Ouyang was anxious, and the Japanese army was even more anxious.

The battle has reached its present point, neither China nor Japan has any way out.

There can only be one winner!

Both sides used all the solutions.

The same is true for the battle in Handan City.

Yang Liqing, Xiaozhuang, Ruinian and others took the lead in charge and launched fierce attacks on the last line of defense of the Japanese army again and again.

Although the 14th Japanese Guard Brigade, which defended Handan City, was a miscellaneous brand among the Japanese military, it was also very brave at this moment.

Both sides had long been red in their eyes, fear, shock and other mentalities.

~~~~~~

At 6 pm, the first wave of reinforcements from the 512th Brigade finally arrived at the Jiaolongling battlefield without stopping.

When they arrived, there were almost no living people on our position in Jiaolongling.

A dead body in the ground!

There were more than 600 soldiers from the Xuefeng Guerrillas, only 37 of them were left, and each of them was seriously injured.

The guerrilla commander Chen Dalei and the third battalion commander were still dug out of the dead by the soldiers.

Chen Dalei, who woke up, resolutely wanted to participate in the battle again despite everyone's obstruction.

"Chen Dalei, you are seriously injured now and must be rescued immediately!"

"Yes, Commander Chen, you are too seriously injured."

Everyone around them dissuaded Chen Dalei, but they were pushed away by him.

"Don't let it go damn ~ stinky fart!"

Chen Dalei shouted: "My people are almost dead. Now you ask me to go to the rear to recuperate? What are you doing? Do you think my Xuefeng Guerrillas are incompetent? Let me tell you, I will not go anywhere today!

The order I received was to stick to this place for 12 hours, and now it is only 6 hours. How could I retreat?

If you want me to retreat, either I completed the mission or my Xuefeng guerrillas died in battle."

Chen Dalei yelled: "Today, there are only Chen Dalei who died in battle, and no Chen Dalei who ran away!"

~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~

At the same time, on the opposite Japanese position.

The captain of the regiment, Niujima Man, was already furious and almost wanted to go wild.

He really didn't expect that a small Jiaolong Ridge would stop him for a long time.

"Shame, great humiliation!"

"Now we are less than 60 miles away from Handan City, but the last 60 miles are like a natural barrier. Our unit fought for 6 hours and paid more than 500 imperial warriors' lives, but we still couldn't move forward!"

"Why?"

"Why is this the hell?"

"It's obviously just hundreds of local eighth leaders!"

"But it is precisely these hundreds of local Eighth Route Army members who have left my 23rd Regiment helpless. It is simply hateful, extremely hateful!"

Ouyang, who was far away in Shexian, frowned deeply, clenched his fists, and did not speak a word.

The battle has reached now, and he has tried his best.

Everyone tried their best.

Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao frowned and said, "At most, 6 hours, if you don't take Handan City, the whole situation will be completely reversed. However, according to the current battle situation, it will be difficult for the Dragon Detachment to break Handan City in the last 6 hours!"
Chapter completed!
