Jiang Ying, the commander of the 17th Division, came to inspect and told Zhang Dong a very bad news. According to his discussion with the Chief of Staff and combined with the current situation on the front line, the Japanese are likely to repair the railway overnight, transport supplies, and then launch a general attack on Hsinchu after dawn tomorrow. They even made the worst plan, that is, late tonight, the Japanese were ready to launch a sneak attack on them, so the troops must be prepared to be prepared for the Japanese army's night attack.

The master gave instructions personally, and Zhang Dong had already heard the feeling. After venting some depression and self-blame in his heart, he patrolled around the neighborhood and finally returned to his regiment command center.

"Password!"

Zhang Dong walked back not far from the regiment headquarters, and sentrymen whispered interrogation from the darkness.

"Destroy the Sun!"

Zhang Dong answered the command, and a soldier flashed out in the darkness. When he approached, he was stunned. "Group, why is it you!"

Zhang Dong recognized the warrior as one of his guards and nodded, "Fourth Division, who are the regiment headquarters now?"

"The team, except you, they are all here..."

When Zhang Dong saw him, he glared at the sight of the words he said, and was about to scold him, but suddenly he seemed to remember something and no longer wanted to scold him. The construction of the regiment headquarters he entered was at the foot of a hidden high ground nearby, and was pulled up with wooden boards and some canvas. In fact, there was nothing inside, just a table, a few benches and a hanging map.

Taiwan was already very hot in April, and at night, mosquitoes were even more inhabited by everyone's heat. When Zhang Dong came in, several officers were lying in the regiment headquarters. Maybe they were too tired during the day and were sleeping sounded. The weather was hot, but after all, everyone was wearing sweaty military uniforms on the battlefield. The buzzing of mosquitoes in the regiment headquarters kept waking them. Zhang Dong sighed, walked over carefully, took out a bottle of panacea oil from his pocket, applied some on his body, and then sprinkled a few drops on several officers who were sleeping sounded.

This panacea is specially prepared for them by the country. I heard that it is effective in repelling mosquitoes, etc., but the pungent smell is too easy to be discovered, so the vigilant troops tacitly understood and did not use it, so as not to have a sneak attack at night, and they could find their location with the smell.

The night was very long, and Zhang Dong was not sleepy at all. He accidentally found a pack of cigarettes on the table and lit a cigarette for himself, sitting there quietly thinking about the war.

When the division seat came to inspect, it was mentioned that when it was almost three or four o'clock in the morning, the second batch of landing troops might be able to arrive. At that time, they will not only be able to obtain a batch of heavy weapons supplies, but also receive more support from live forces, which may change the current adverse situation.

The division seat also mentioned that the submarine troops that had been resupplied at night would likely launch a second wave of attacks on the Japanese surviving warships roaming nearby seas. It was said that in order to avoid the support of the Japanese in China, it was even a group of trans-ocean submarine troops that could sail far away were already roaming in the deep sea, intercepting and delaying the speed of the Japanese navy's main force's southward movement to buy time for them.

The Hsinchu Field Airport located in the rear is still under construction. Jiang Ying not only recruited hundreds of Han people's workers in the local area, but also mobilized a battalion of soldiers to cooperate in the construction. It was said that after they completed the field airport, a batch of fighter jets would be allocated from the two land aviation bases in Xiamen and Quanzhou to support it. In other words, as long as they persist for three or four days, the situation outside will change to the same appearance. Once the land aviation arrived, they would gain air supremacy, the situation in Taiwan would inevitably become another appearance.

Zhang Dong thought a lot, and cigarettes turned into cigarette butts in his hands. Just as he finished smoking the last cigarette and sighed secretly, he heard an explosion outside the command post of the regiment headquarters, followed by a burst of uncontrollable screams. A dark thunder they arranged on the periphery was touched.

The dark thunders were all arranged within a mile around the position. Because the first batch of supplies they transported ashore were not large, the thunders they arranged were not dense. However, the soldiers of their regiment recorded that it was impossible for them to step on the dark thunders at night. So either an animal touched the origin of the dark thunders, or the Japanese ambush troops stepped on the dark thunders.

"There is a situation!"

Without his orders, most soldiers woke up from their sleep immediately when the explosion sounded. Some soldiers were too nervous and even picked up their rifles as soon as they woke up, and the submachine guns fired. At the same time, the soldiers of the machine gun platoon immediately used mortars to fire a few flares into the sky. The white flares shone the entire front of the position, so the Japanese soldiers who had just touched their position were exposed.

This time, there were more National Defense Forces soldiers firing, and the machine guns also sounded "da da da da da da da" and in the hasty battle, the soldiers on the 331st Regiment's position could even hear the slogans that Japanese soldiers also had in the dark!

“Onboard!”

“Onboard!”

As Jiang Ying was most worried, the Japanese restored the railway before the arrival of the early morning, completed the supply and dispatch of troops, and the Japanese army indeed launched a night attack. The main attack direction he chose was the position where Zhang Dong was responsible for the defense, a low mountain located in the northwest of Hsinchu.

The Chinese people who seemed to be looked down upon by them and caused significant losses seriously stimulated the proud Japanese. At least judging from the performance of these sneak attacks, the Japanese army was already angry, and the charge could only be described as unyielding courage. Zhang Dong quickly took several guards to the front line. In the light of the explosion, hundreds of Japanese soldiers in yellow uniforms appeared faintly. They held bayonet rifles and shouted to launch a dense charge at their high ground. They ignored the violent rain of bullets that had been fired on their side, and there was no engineer walking in front of them carefully to warn of the dark thunder they laid.

Behind them, the dense figures in the darkness all told them that there were more Japanese suicide squads.

"Not good! Beat! Beat me hard!"

This is the situation that Zhang Dong is most afraid of. The Japanese obviously figured out their insufficient heavy weapons in the afternoon battle. So they would rather sacrifice some than take down their positions in the shortest time and drive them into the sea.

Time, everyone knows that time is the most important thing now, and you don’t want to lose the opportunity when you sleep!

Zhang Dong hurriedly picked up his rifle, and several battalion commanders who were still resting also rushed out of the regiment command post. After discovering the situation, the troops immediately returned to their own troops. The officers' shouts could be heard everywhere on the position, and the gunshots and explosions became more and more intense with their shouts.

"Da da da da da da!"

The machine guns sprayed fire tongues and roared, like a life harvester, reaping the lives of Japanese people sneak attacking in the darkness. The scorching warheads passed through the flesh and blood bodies, violently demonstrating the high efficiency of modern killing machines in the industrial era. In the face of such killing machines, any flesh and blood body is fragile.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The crisp gunshots of the Type 16 rifle kept ringing!

"boom!"

"boom!"

From time to time, a mortar shell exploded in the dark!

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Boxes of grenades turn into death, and each explosion will take away several fresh lives.

"Hurry, hurry up, the left wing is dangerous! In a row, immediately draw a row to support and bring these two boxes of grenades!"

"yes!"

"The machine gun has no bullets!"

"The machine gunner immediately brought the machine gun and retreated!"

"yes!"

"boom!"

"What sound?"

"The mortar exploded, and three brothers died!"

"What?"

As more and more Japanese people were inclined in a direction that was not conducive to the 331st Regiment. After about forty minutes of fighting, the Japanese had already captured several trenches on the left wing, forcing the left wing's garrison forces to retreat to the second line to defend. However, as soon as they retreated, a loophole appeared in the direction of the 331st Regiment, which was not strict.

"Fight! The position must not be missed, the guard squad..."

"have!"

"Go support the left wing!"

“Top seat…”

"Go quickly!"

"yes!"

The rifle gunfire became more and more frequent, and the battle was completely intensified.

Zhang Dong was as anxious as a mouse on a hot pot. He vaguely estimated that their position was the Japanese attack. The Japanese army head-on attacking their position was probably not limited to two brigades, and it was absolutely impossible to defend it with the 331st Regiment alone.

Zhang Dong immediately called Niu Dashun and several other battalion commanders. After thinking about it, everyone agreed to contact and support!

Zhang Dong immediately ordered people to go back and call for support from the other regiments nearby. Seeing that the Japanese troops in the woods were still continuously rushing towards the positions, he not only needed more support, but also lacked enough heavy weapons. In this case, they needed to block the Japanese superior forces on the opposite side, and it would be a matter of time before their position was lost.

"Da da da da da da da da da da!"

The battle actually aroused the vigilance of the nearby troops stationed nearby. After receiving the request for help from their 331st Regiment, the two nearby regiments soon transferred a company to support them. At the same time, they were brought with them two machine guns and some supply bullets. After receiving the supply, the last machine gun that was insisting on evacuation of the 331st Regiment, which was about to evacuate, began to roar.

In the dark night, several long tongues of fire were pulled out, constantly reaping the lives of the Japanese.

Not long after, the division headquarters also obtained information from the front line. Jiang Ying specially dispatched the first battalion of soldiers from various places to the 331st Regiment, and four machine guns and several mountain cannons came with him.

After receiving supplies, the 331st Regiment, which had suffered heavy casualties, finally got a chance to breathe. Under the gradually strengthened firepower, the Japanese's charge momentum was gradually curbed.

The stalemate lasted for more than two hours. After the losses of the Japanese sneak attack troops gradually increased, but the positions of the 331st Regiment could not be taken down for a long time, the Japanese who attacked had already noticed that it was impossible to defeat the Chinese in the dark night by relying on sneak attacks. Then, when the time was approaching three o'clock in the morning, as more reinforcements from the 331st Regiment arrived, the counterattack firepower became more and more fierce, and the sneak attack troops began to gradually evacuate.

"Japans just evacuated?"

When the reconnaissance tracked the Japanese in the dark and found that the Japanese had indeed withdrawn, Zhang Dong, who was arranging to treat the wounded and count the injuries, was very surprised. He was ready to die with the position just now, but during the entire battle, the attacking Japanese troops did not provide any artillery fire cover. What other ideas did the Japanese make? Where did their cannons go?

Jiang Ying quickly arrived at the front line to inspect the injury.

"The division is incompetent. According to the preliminary data released by statistics, our side annihilated 271 enemies and captured 37 wounded people. Our side died and injured 492 people... I just don't know, but fortunately, the Japanese artillery had not sounded in the battle just now, otherwise our position might have been unable to be defended."

He was full of worries and doubts, but heard Jiang Ying snorting coldly, "It's not your fault. You don't have enough heavy weapons to be able to defend the position. It's not easy for the Japanese... Humph, how many days can you think they have for a good day? There are nearly three million of our compatriots on this island. The president is so far-sighted. He sent someone to sneak into Taiwan a few years ago to secretly contact the rebels and help them with arms. We just received a confidential telegram that the domestic forces have been contacted. They have now received news of our counterattack on Taiwan, and are invading the Japanese strongholds everywhere and destroying the railways."

His eyes were bright in the night, looking at the dark sky, "We are not fighting alone, there are millions of our compatriots here!"
