At 3 a.m. on August 29, the 33rd Brigade of the 11th Division completed the battle preparations. Half an hour later, the 66th Regiment launched a pincer attack on the Ximazhai, southwest of Luodian, and the enemy of Zhou Jiazhai. Zuo Wangqiu, deputy squad leader of the 5th Company of the 2nd Battalion, rushed back in time to participate in the battle, clearing the Japanese outside guard post for the second battalion's battle, achieving the suddenness of the battle, and playing an important role in the battalion's offensive breakthrough and reducing casualties. Ximazhai, the enemy of Zhou Jiazhai was under the pincer attack of the 66th Regiment, and the Japanese army attempted to stand by and wait for reinforcements. However, the 65th Regiment of the 33rd Brigade, the third

At the same time, the 11th Brigade also launched a fierce attack on the enemies in the surrounding villages, making the Japanese troops guarding Ximazai and Zhou Jiazhai hopeless to rescue them. They swam across Panzhai and Danshiqiao to break through. After an hour of battle, the 66th Regiment took advantage of the situation to occupy Ximazai, Zhou Jiazhai, Panzhai, Danshiqiao and other Luodian positions and forcing Luodian. In this battle, the 66th Regiment killed nearly 400 officers and soldiers from Captain Sakakura, the 3rd Battalion of the 43rd Battalion of the 11th Division. At the same time, the 65th Regiment defeated the 2nd Battalion of the 43rd Battalion of the 11th Division and cleared the Japanese troops outside Luodian.

At the Japanese "Qingshui" headquarters in the northwest of Luodian, the officers and soldiers of Li Bojun's third battalion were excitedly surrounding the mountains of spoils.

In the middle of this small courtyard, Li Bojun looked at the commander of the Ninth Company Zhou Shusheng and wanted to speak, and asked seriously: "Company Commander Zhou, just say whatever you have."

"Battery Commander, I think don't wait, fight, right? Now, the morale of the whole battalion is high. Let's work together to fight him hard with the 83rd Regiment!"

"Luodian Town is so big, even the villages south of the town are all Japanese troops. The 83rd Regiment has been fighting for so long, and the gunshots are still there, so there must be no progress. Luodian Town is a big town, and I don't know how many Japanese troops there are in this town. Besides, this is also the 11th Japanese Division, a real standing division."

Under the faint light, Li Bojun's face looked heavy. Obviously, he attached great importance to the Japanese Standing Division and did not despise the slightest.

Zhou Shusheng said, "Battery Commander, why don't our battalion fight first, and then the first and second battalions, and the regiment headquarters will come up."

"Military orders are like mountains! Wars are not a joke. In such a big place, we are only one battalion that is spread into the town, and we can't even see the figures of the Japanese. Perhaps even the Japanese are dissatisfied with the teeth!"

"Battery Commander, the Japanese are not that scary. Isn't this Japanese Qingshui Command the same? Now is the first battle of our 14th Division. This is a national battle, and there is a sense of ruthlessness from all over the country. I think I have to use it, and it will be just the first battle to make a contribution." Zhou Shusheng said excitedly.

"I want to fight too, but now the enemy situation in the town is unknown, so we cannot act rashly. In this battle, we suddenly attacked. Now that we have been fighting for these dozens of minutes, the Japanese army in the town already knows our movements and will fight back sooner or later. War is a good opportunity to make achievements, but we must not take the life and death of our brothers seriously for the sake of making meritorious service in the first battle! Besides, the War of Resistance is not a matter of one day or one night!"

"Battery Commander, I don't mean you!"

"I understand your thoughts and know that you have a training set. But training is just training. At worst, a few people will be injured. But this is a war. The war in Shanghai has just begun. We cannot break all our brothers here because of our command mistakes at the beginning. Remember, the future is long and the War of Resistance is also a long and arduous process. Besides, the regiment commander also has orders."

Zhou Shusheng said with full fighting spirit: "Battery Commander, you will not be able to accept the orders from outside. Let's fight! Please ask our company to take the lead!"

"Shusheng, I know you are an excellent commander. We cannot rashly use the lives of our brothers to block the Japanese gun holes. We fight with each other in the war! Believe me, when the main force of the regiment comes up, I will definitely let the regiment commander give us the mission of the Pioneer Battalion! My family in the world will let the Ninth Company take the lead!"

At this time, an officer ran over and reported: "Battery Commander, what should I do if these spoils are not easy to carry?"

Li Bojun said: "First send three or five canned beef for each person, and take the others away in a concentrated manner."

“Where to bring concentration?”

Li Bojun hesitated slightly and said, "Well--, just retreat to the bamboo forest and tell your brothers that you must move quickly, ensure the vigilance outside and prevent the Japanese from counterattacking at any time. Company Commander Zhou, what do you think?

"Well, that place is quite hidden, the forest is a bit big, and it's good that our camp hides there and waits for the main force of the entire regiment to arrive."

The third battalion of Li Bojun had just left the Japanese Qingshui Command, and the 83rd Regiment received a call from the division command post, ordering the entire regiment to retreat. The 83rd Regiment quickly withdrew from the battle and moved to the Caowangmiao area northwest of Luodian Town to build fortifications and establish a warning position. After a while, the 79th Regiment and the division command post returned to normal. The regiment commander Que Hanqian received a call from the division chief Guo Rugui, ordering the withdrawal of Luodian battle. After receiving this call, Que Hanqian felt relieved and took his two battalions to retreat to the Shixianggong Temple area to build fortifications and establish a warning position.

The bamboo forest is two or three miles in a radius. When Li Bojun's third camp entered the bamboo forest, he sent a warning post to the surrounding area and swim posts.

Within the 79th Regiment, all the officers and soldiers of Li Bojun's third battalion rushed from Changshu to Luodian to participate in the war, and encountered heavy rain along the way. Although the troops were in high morale, the long-distance marching was exhausted, and many soldiers fell asleep as soon as they sat down. Many soldiers were hungry, so they took out the canned beef they distributed, opened it with bayonets, and ate canned beef to satisfy their hunger.

The Japanese canned beef tasted good. As soon as it was opened, it attracted the attention of the surrounding people. They all opened the canned food to satisfy their hunger. Tang Jiabao, Yang An, Luo Changshun, Yuan Facai, Li Xiaoshuan and other five people seized Japanese canned food when they were out for reconnaissance. They knew how to open the canned food and helped their comrades open the canned food.

Yao Baotian, the first squad leader of the Ninth Company, handed his can to Yang An, and said with a smile: "Brother, do a favor!"

Yang An took the can, opened it quickly and handed it over. Yao Baotian smiled and said thank you, then wiped the bayonet, stroked it a few times in the can box, picked up a piece and handed it to Yang An, and said, "Brother, come and taste it."

Yang An said: "Squad Leader Yao, you're welcome, I have it here, everyone has it."

After saying that, Yang An helped a comrade next to him open a can, then took out a box of cans, opened the can, and also scratched it with a bayonet, picking up a piece and feeding it into his mouth.

The canned beef tasted really good. After just chewing it for a few times, Yang An felt a smell of fragrance. Or was he hungry because he was marching overnight or because the canned beef tasted very good, Yang An felt that the canned food was getting better and better. While eating canned food, thinking that the rations of the Japanese army were so good, Yang An secretly became worried about the huge gap between the national army and the Japanese army. Soon, he thought that this was not something that he was a big soldier worried about, and Yang An shook his head helplessly.

"Ah--!" Yao Baotian screamed and broke the tranquility around him.

Everyone around was shocked, and when they turned around, several flashlight beams shone on Yao Baotian. The flashlight was the spoils of this battle and came in handy at this time. The bright light shone on Yao Baotian, and everyone discovered that there was a black dog in front of him. It turned out that he accidentally touched a black dog and was frightened by the black dog.

The black dog was soaked in the rain and his body was trembling. I don’t know if it was because of the coolness of the autumn rain or because of the fear of the crowd and the lights.

"Wild dog! Animals! Looking for death!" Yao Baotian gritted his teeth and cursed hatefully. After that, he waved the bayonet in his hand. The black dog quickly avoided it, but did not leave. Yao Baotian saw that it was not stabbing the black dog, and the bayonet was gasping nervously, and the bayonet was trembling constantly in his hand. His eyes were full of hatred, and the bayonet pointed at the black dog again.

The black dog felt Yao Baotian's murderous intent and had already dodged to the side. Seeing Yao Baotian holding a bayonet with a fierce look on his face, the black dog grinned and let out a low scream of "Woo--Woo--" and was ready to fight back at any time.

An officer saw the light of the flashlight and shouted alertly: "Switch off the flashlight! Turn off the flashlight! Do you want to expose it? Do you want to die!"

The flashlight turned off, and Yao Baotian suddenly fell into darkness in front of him, but the darkness made him more afraid of the black dog, and his voice trembled and shouted: "Stave you, the damn beast to death! stab you, the damn beast to death!"

After saying that, he stabbed the bayonet out violently.
Chapter completed!
