When Commander Matsui Iwane was puzzled as to why there were several more unexpected German weapon division troops in the outer area,

The Japanese army is also conducting successful landing operations with more than 100,000 elite troops in Chuansha, Shizilin, Dongzikou and other places north of Wusong, and has also quickly moved south along the Shanghai-Taiwan Highway to the north of Yunzaobang to attack the National Army.

The left wing group army and the joint part of the center group army launched the most ferocious offensive operations.

The purpose of the Japanese army was to adopt the tactic of central breakthrough, cross Yunzaobang, occupy Dachang Town from north to south, encircle the retreat of the 9th Group Army, the main force of the national army, and further encircle and suppress the main force of the elite force.

Annihilate.

The main attack locations of the Japanese army were Qiaotingzhai, Dunwu Temple, both sides of Yunzaobang and the Chenjiahang area.

To this end, the Japanese army invested two elite permanent divisions, the 3rd and 9th divisions, as well as the 101st reserve division. Commander Matsui Iwane personally supervised the battle and commanded the attack. As long as these elite Japanese troops can carry out the most effective

Breaking through all the defense lines of the elite 9th Army of the National Army at a fast speed,

Then these elite Japanese divisions will be able to wipe out all the main forces of the Chinese army, end this Songhu Battle, and achieve final victory.

Before the troops of the 20th Army of the Sichuan Army and the 26th Division of the Sichuan Army arrived at these places for support operations,

The troops holding the Chenjiahang position,

Wearing gray military uniforms, British-style "Tony" helmets, and carrying broadswords, they are the troops of a brigade of the reorganized 32nd Division of the National Army from the Northwest Army.

Chenjiaxing is a large open and unobstructed cotton field with several zigzag trenches extending all the way to the north bank of Yunzaobang.

The troops of the National Army's 32nd Division fought in open areas without many defensive barriers.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Rumble, rumble! Rumble, rumble..."

........

Due to the lack of heavy firepower weapons and equipment, especially the absence of artillery units to support operations,

The troops of the 32nd Division of the National Army are suffering from fierce artillery bombardment by the Japanese army.

There was also the constant rain of machine gun bullets like a violent storm, and crazy strafing.

One round after another, 75mm artillery shells continued to bombard the trenches where the troops of the 32nd Division of the National Army were located.

The shrapnel splashed after the explosion continued to kill these national officers and soldiers.

Some of them were blown up into cannon fodder, and some had their limbs broken off.

But the worst thing is that the group of aircraft sent by the Japanese naval aviation to carry out bombing attacks are also constantly circling and conducting sneak bombings in the sky above them.

These Japanese aircraft groups dropped a few aerial bombs from time to time to carry out air raids and bombings.

After bursts of screaming sounds, those aerial bombs fell to the ground and exploded violently.

Continuously blasting holes several meters deep on the ground, one after another, and some even more than ten meters deep. The explosions caused the cotton field to be filled with flames, and the ground was constantly shaking as if it were an earthquake. Many of them were

Cotton is burning everywhere,

Many officers and soldiers of the 32nd Division of the National Army were also killed in the air raids by these insidious Japanese aircraft groups.

Under the support of Japanese artillery fire, as well as the continuous aerial bombardment of Japanese aircraft groups,

The Japanese troops are also shortening the fighting distance with the National Army's 32nd Division troops.

In order to wipe out these troops of the 32nd Division of the National Army as soon as possible, the Japanese infantry troops also completed the artillery fire coverage and bombing.

They launched an offensive operation in a skirmish formation, and the Type 92 heavy machine guns quickly made a "clucking" sound.

Then rows of bullets were fired continuously, killing the officers and soldiers of the 32nd Division who were stubbornly resisting. Many officers and soldiers of the 32nd Division were sprayed with blood by these ferocious Japanese light and heavy machine guns.

Without even a chance to say a word, he lost his breath and died in battle.

And in such a critical war situation,

However, it will take some time for the Sichuan Army troops to arrive here and carry out supporting operations.

In response, Guo Xingming, the brigade commander of the 32nd Division of the National Army, also kept making phone calls requesting reinforcements to support the operation.
