The battle between He Feiyang's troops and the Japanese Third Brigade lasted less than half an hour.
After the Japanese captain Keisuke Shibata and a group of Japanese officers were bombed, they began to fall into a leaderless situation.
So in the face of He Feiyang's fierce offensive, they suffered casualties, retreated, and fled.
Of course, there are also those who fight to the death,
However, these Japanese officers and soldiers who fought desperately were quickly shot down by He Feiyang's Type 92 heavy machine gun group and turned into a hornet's nest.
Or it was blown up by a group of 82mm mortars, and the three large-caliber mortars prepared by He Feiyang were eliminated with one shot.
It was also because of the threat of the three large-caliber mortars that He Feiyang launched in the end. After more than 500 Japanese casualties, the crippled Japanese 3rd Battalion also hurriedly dispersed.
And at this moment,
The fighting in Chen Jiaxing also began to stop.
However, the casualties of the 133rd Division also increased sharply.
If the support from the 135th Division and other national army units had not arrived in time, the Japanese troops would not have been able to temporarily stop the attack so easily, and the casualties of the 133rd Division would have continued to increase.
Rest area for the main force of the 133rd Division,
"What a stupid Japanese! This time, my 133rd Division was disabled by them!"
"Damn it! I underestimated the combat effectiveness of these Japs. It seems that with the strength of one division of mine, there is really no way to fight against a division of Japs troops!"
When the battle was over, Yang Hanyu, the commander of the 133rd Division of the Sichuan Army, was grumpy and disgraced, and complained to Zhou Hanxi, the commander of the 397th Brigade.
But Zhou Hanxi, the commander of the 397th Brigade, didn’t look very good at this time either.
Because his own troops also suffered heavy casualties,
He was also crippled by the Japanese army,
Therefore, he also felt the painful mood of Yang Hanyu, the commander of the 133rd Division, at this time.
"Damn you devil, I will definitely avenge you!"
"Even if my troops are crippled, I will continue to fight!"
"Damn it, I will make them pay a heavy price!"
Looking at the silent and bitter-looking commander of the 397th Brigade Zhou Hanxi, the commander of the 133rd Division Yang Hanyu became even more irritable and cursed the Japanese troops.
"The problem is that we have very little ammunition left. In the next battle, I'm afraid we will be very passive and suffer more casualties! So do you think there is any way to ask the military commander to supply us with some ammunition, firearms, etc.
!”
"If possible, I feel that it would be better for our 133rd Division to rest and replenish before continuing to fight. Otherwise, I am worried that our entire army will be destroyed here!"
Looking at the division commander Yang Hanyu who was still complaining and irritably cursing the Japanese troops, the brigade commander Zhou Hanxi became increasingly bitter, reminding him that the troops on his side no longer had much ammunition.
Upon hearing this, the division commander Yang Hanyu immediately shut his mouth as if thunder struck his ears.
He stared at the brigade commander Zhou Hanxi in shock.
Because he never thought that he would run out of ammunition so soon.
So how to fight the next battle?
Are they all going to fight those Japanese troops in hand-to-hand combat with swords?
Isn’t this a total suicide attempt?
If it were a night attack, it would still be successful.
But now it’s in broad daylight!
The Japanese army has tanks and chariots, artillery troops, and light and heavy machine gun troops. He cannot fight to the death against the Japanese troops without firearms and ammunition.
"I will immediately ask the communications soldier to report the bad situation here to the military base, and ask him to immediately supply us with guns and ammunition, otherwise we will have no way to continue fighting!"
"Especially now that we have suffered so many casualties. Damn it! Damn Japs!"
"I will definitely think of a solution!"
After being shocked for a moment, division commander Yang Hanyu quickly responded to brigade commander Zhou Hanxi.
At the same time, he was also preparing to contact Military Commander Yang Sen in person.
Because at this time, the military commander Yang Sen had safely arrived at the theater artillery headquarters and was communicating with the other party's senior officials. He needed artillery support from the national army's artillery for the operation.
Therefore, he was not commanding the battle in Chen Jiaxing for the time being, but gave full authority to Yang Hanyu, the commander of the 133rd Division.
The problem is that it is not easy for Yang Hanyu, the commander of the 133rd Division, to contact him.
Because there was no telegraph machine or telephone to communicate with Yang Sen on the road.
Therefore, the division commander Yang Hanyu finally had no choice but to make a call to the theater artillery headquarters, connect the communications personnel there, and ask them to ask military commander Yang Sen to answer the call immediately.
At this time, the military commander Yang Sen was in a hot temper and was quarreling with the senior officials of the artillery headquarters.
But in the end he won, and was promised the only massed, large-scale artillery support operation.
That is to say, at this moment,
The commander of the 133rd Division, Yang Hanyu, called and asked him to answer the call.
"Yeah! It's me!"
"Yeah! I know!"
"No matter how high the cost of casualties is, we can't evacuate Chenjiahang right now. If you continue to hold on, we will soon inflict a heavy blow on those ruthless Japanese!"
"I have just received an agreement from the Artillery Headquarters to provide us with artillery support for our operations!"
"So you can continue to fight in Chenjiaxing with peace of mind. I will also dispatch all my reserves, including the pistol company, to support you in the operation!"
"In addition, for the ammunition and firearms you want, I will immediately ask the Military Commission to find a way to dispatch some to supply you!"
"We are the Sichuan Army, and we are the Sichuan Army without cowards!"
"So, I'm going to fight back all those bastard Japs!"
When Yang Hanyu, the commander of the 133rd Division of Yang Sen's First Division, briefly and urgently reported the battle situation in Chen Jiaxing, his face became extremely solemn, but his tone was also very firm in giving instructions.
"Yes! Military seat!"
As for Yang Hanyu, the commander of the 133rd Division, he was silent for a while and then agreed without hesitation.
"Phew! Damn Japs!"
"It seems that this time my life will be decided here, but I will never make it easy for you!"
"Even if you die in battle, I want you to be buried with me!"
After the division commander Yang Hanyu finished talking to the military commander Yang Sen, he sighed with a heavy heart, then firmly determined to fight to the death, and once again cursed the Japanese troops.
"Master! Good news!"
"Good news!"
But at this moment, division commander Yang Hanyu, who was in a tragic mood, suddenly heard the cheerful shouting of Liu Xihan, commander of the 399th Brigade, from outside the communications room.
He had a puzzled look on his face.
"What's the good news?"
"Our casualties have been so huge. Now even the supply of weapons, equipment and ammunition is a problem. Is there any other good news that makes you so excited?"
So soon, he hurriedly asked Liu Xihan, the smiling commander of the 399th Brigade.
"That He Feiyang seized a batch of 82mm mortars and Type 92 heavy machine guns from the Japs' troops, and prepared to hand them over to us to deal with those damn Japs. Of course, he also handed over some of these heavy firepower weapons and equipment.
Give it to their 135th Division!”
"But he also gave us a batch of Japanese-style 38 caps and enough ammunition!"
"So you think it's good news?"
Puzzled by division commander Yang Hanyu's confusion, Liu Xihan, commander of the 399th Brigade, who had already walked up to him, explained to him with a bright smile.
After hearing this, the division commander Yang Hanyu did not immediately become elated, but was shocked and confused by such good news.
He couldn't imagine how He Feiyang obtained so many weapons, equipment, and ammunition.
