.Nanchang, Niuxing Station.

Since the Niuxing Station was established, it has suffered many wars. In every battle for Nanchang City over the past decade, Niuxing Station has become a must-win place for military strategists with its convenient transportation and superior geographical location.

This Nanchang defense battle is no exception. It is just that the attacking side has changed from a certain domestic force to an Oriental devil who came across the sea.

After the Japanese army broke into Nanchang City in large numbers, Xiang Zhongyuan turned the defensive forces on many sporadic strongholds to the Ganjiang River in order to preserve their vitality and persist until dark. Only the defenders at Niuxing Station still maintained two battalions with relatively complete combat power. The commander here was personally taken over by Yang Zhen, who was the chief of staff of the first echelon and the deputy commander of the 97th Independent Brigade. This shows that Niuxing Station is in Xiang Zhongyuan's mind.

The Japanese side also saw the importance of Niuxing Station. At 2 pm, General Junji Matsuura personally issued the order to capture Niuxing Station within three hours. With the strength of a whole regiment, it was the first time in the 106th Division that was not glorious. Yang Zhen started to lead the army to stand in Niuxing Station, and the repeated orders given by the upper peaks were that the people were dead and they had to stay until dark.

Because both the offensive and defensive sides received death orders, the battle for Niuxing Station was extremely cruel from the beginning. Otani Yuichizuka, who was eager to make contributions, launched two brigades of troops as soon as they came up and launched an attack on the junction of Niuxing Station and other positions of the Chinese army. Otani Nakasa's fighting style, a discerning person could tell at a glance that he wanted to isolate the station defenders and then slam down.

In terms of the soldiers, the Niuxing Station defenders, mainly those veterans who fought for at least seven or eight years in Sichuan, did not show any weakness to fight against the Japanese. All the positions occupied by the Japanese were not exceptional, only after all the defenders were killed in the battle.

At the beginning of the battle, the Japanese army attacked Niuxing Train Station. They were shocked by the heroic behavior of the Chinese army that every time they fought to the last soldiers and the huge casualties on the side, their attack momentum slowed down for a while and asked for reinforcements from the division regiment headquarters. While giving a brigade of reinforcements, Lieutenant General Matsuura also ordered the division law class to send people to guide and assist the operations of the 147th Regiment. The superiors and subordinates of the 147th Regiment all understood that the 147th Regiment sent military law class to guide the operations, which was actually to the 147th Regiment.

Send a supervising team. Watch the Chinese website all the way to watch the first broadcaster in the Japanese army. He thought that his attack ability and military will rank among the world's leading Japanese army. He sent military law courses to supervise the battle at the top. It was a very rare thing and a scandal. As the person involved, all the officers and soldiers of the 147th Regiment were immediately regarded as a "care" move by the division commander as a great humiliation of the local corps. Under the pressure and leadership of the officers who had completely lost their rationality, the Japanese army's attacks became fierce and rapid again.

Being forced, the Japanese army went crazy and followed the chariots in a dense group, launching a fierce attack on the outer positions of Niuxing Station. Even the densely buried landmines in front of the Chinese military positions could only blow the charge of the Japanese army all over the field, but could not stop the Japanese from charging.

Of course, it was impossible to stop the Japanese who swarmed in. Shortly after Yang Zhen destroyed the Japanese chariots with his own hands, the Japanese army occupied several streets south of Niuxing Station, which the Chinese army had been defending. At this point, the defenders of Niuxing Station were trapped in a desperate situation of being surrounded on all sides. Fortunately, unfortunately, the reinforcements sent to the Central Plains rushed in very timely at the last moment when the Japanese completely surrounded Niuxing Station. This guard from Xiang Zhongyuan, ground-flight soldiers from the 97th Independent Brigade and a few local advisers from the brigade.

The arrival of a team of more than 100 people and lands composed of personnel greatly encouraged the morale of Niu Xing's lonely army. At 5:40 pm, the Japanese army launched a total attack on Niu Xing Station, and more than 2,000 Japanese troops howled from all directions and rushed towards the core position of the Niu Xing's chariot battle. At this time, there were only 321 Chinese defenders facing the Japanese army. There were also many minor and serious wounded among the 300 people. People with a little military knowledge knew that this battle was a battle without any suspense. The remaining problem was that Yang Zhen's troops could drag onto the road together.

To be honest, Yang Zhen carefully arranged the firepower network on the core ground composed of the station waiting room, office building, and platform. In order to protect the key points of Niuxing Station, he also transferred heavy weapons to the Central Plains as much as possible, so that Yang Zhen had three ace weapons used by the Chinese army to deal with combat vehicles. The 37th war defense artillery alone, which was used by the Chinese army to deal with combat vehicles. The company inside the Yang army stationed in the station was equipped with M18 submachine guns with great firepower. It is no exaggeration to exaggerate this unit is the most well-equipped army commanded by Yang Zhen.

Team. And the brothers fought very well, almost all guns were shot without any bullets (the Japanese rushed to the front of them in a pile of less than 30 meters, so it was difficult to shoot empty guns.) The layers of Japanese corpses on the steps of the platform alone were enough to illustrate this point. But there were too many Japanese people and too strong firepower. They even piled up on the platform in just twenty minutes. "Boom" a grenade fired by a company commander who was in charge of guarding the platform at the last moment, announcing that the Japanese army had occupied the platform, and another three pillars of the core position of the Chinese army fell down.

After the platform was lost, the Japanese army then captured the waiting hall, and now only the office building is still in the hands of the Chinese army. The Japanese army then concentrated all its strength and surrounded the Chinese army at the last stronghold of the Niuxing Station like a wolf.

Yang Zhen did not rush to the front line to have a meat fight with the Japanese army as usual. Although he wanted to kill a few more Japanese pigs with his own hands, he still did not do so.

So, what is Yang Zhen doing at this last moment!

When the Japanese army had already poured into the three-story station office building, the highest commander of the Chinese army guarding Niuxing Station was smoking cigarettes one by one, made of tobacco sent by old friends from Sichuan. As a school-level officer with a salary of hundreds of dollars a month, Yang Zhen naturally would not be unable to afford to buy cigarettes. The reason why he had this poor hobby was all developed when he was a soldier in Sichuan back then. However, the reason why Yang Zhen kept smoking today was not only to have a good time when his life was about to come to an end, but also to ignite the fuse that was placed at his hand at any time.

In this small basement where Yang Zhen is located at the support point of the entire building, bags of yellow explosives are neatly placed, with a quantity of 200 to 300 kilograms. Although the effectiveness of this explosive is far less powerful than that of the Tyrant, which was still rare at the time, if hundreds of kilograms were used to explode at this critical position, it would be enough to blow up the entire building.

Yang Zhen is waiting for the best moment to come.

Finally, the sound of killing on his head gradually weakened. Surrounded by the smoke, Yang Zhen greedily sniffing the fragrance of tobacco, while igniting the fuse that had been holding in his hand. The fuse was very short. A few seconds later, with a huge explosion that vibrated the whole city. All the alive defenders of Niuxing Railway Station and hundreds of Japanese soldiers who rushed into the station office building have died. Yang Zhen did not know that in addition to killing and killing hundreds of Japanese soldiers including the captain of the Japanese 147th Regiment, Lieutenant General Matsuura issued an order to stop the attack at dusk.

The reason why Junroro Matsuura issued the order to suspend attacks across the board, which was criticized in the future. Of course, there are his own reasons for this order.

In just two days of combat, the 106th Division had suffered more than 4,000 casualties, not to mention that the Japanese army had been put into combat, but after a whole day of bloody battle, most of them were broken and exhausted. The Japanese opponent, the Chinese army, had the advantage of home battle. When it was dark, Nanchang would undoubtedly be the world of the Chinese people. The most important thing was that Lieutenant General Matsuura mistakenly believed that the Chinese army had only smuggled at night (at this time the Japanese gunboat patroled the Ganjiang River.) How many troops came here, which would not be a big threat to the Japanese army's military operations in the daytime aiming to take over the north bank of the Ganjiang River in Nanchang City tomorrow.

The Japanese army was completely stopped, which made the Central Plains, who was heartbroken because of Yang Zhen's death, greatly relieved. Even if the Japanese army continues to fight, although it may not be possible to seal all the ways for the troops on the South Bank to get ashore, the situation will inevitably deteriorate further. The troubles encountered by the Japanese army are actually far more than the Chinese army's brave fight on the battlefield. Lieutenant General Matsuura received a formal report of strange complications before dusk. These Japanese wounded soldiers were unconscious after being injured. This abnormal situation not only left the military doctor helpless, and the lives of the wounded were dying, but also affected the morale of the Japanese troops. I don't know the news from that, Japanese officers and soldiers privately said that this was the reason why the Chinese army used highly contagious chemical weapons. The morale of the existing side was also the reason why Lieutenant General Matsuura ordered the suspension of the attack.
