The Japanese army quickly crossed the first line of defense at the foot of the mountain, and did not want to give up. Instead, they continued to rush up the mountain with bayonets. Due to the restrictions on the terrain and the obstacles of thorns and bushes, the Japanese army bit the butt of the Kuomintang and chased the mountainside inevitably crowded onto the only two rugged mountain roads.

Although the Japanese army was chasing, they were in a very embarrassing state and their physical strength was a little too exhausted.

Since the 10th Army landed in the Jinshanwei, more than 500,000 troops of more than 80 divisions on the Songhu battlefield collapsed overnight. The subsequent war process was almost a race between the Shanghai-sent condemnation army and the 10th Army. It didn't look at who could fight better, but only who ran faster. From the Jinshanwei to Niushou Mountain, the 6th Division almost never stopped.

The Japanese soldiers who rushed up with a bayonet "Ho Pu" and "Ho Pu" did not expect that at this time, dozens of fierce eyes were hiding in the cracks of the rocks, in the cave or in the bushes, were looking at them coldly. At least four light and heavy machine guns had opened their security, and the black holes had already pointed at their vests.

Xu Shijiu saw this scene clearly through the telescope, and sneered: "Xiao Ri Wuben is so crazy that he is out of reach. Do they really dare to rush up the mountain in a daze?"

Gao Shenxing said: "It's nothing strange. Since the Jinshanwei landed in the South, the Japanese army, except for the Sichuan army in Si'an, they have basically never fought any decent battles in the rest of the time. Most of the time, they are chasing, chasing, continuing to pursue, and running away from Jinglu."

Xu Shijiu said: "If Xiao Ri Wu Ben thought that he could reach the foot of Nanjing City by chasing all the way, that would be wrong. During the Battle of Songhu, we couldn't even build fortifications, but the terrain of Niushou Mountain is different. It's time for Xiao Ri Wu to learn the ability of our national army to fight defensive warfare."

After saying that, Xu Shijiu ordered again: "Put the flag to Lao Du, close the door, and beat the dog!"

"Yes!" Gao Shenxing stood at attention and stood behind the guardrail with a small red basket flag again.

On the side of Zutang Mountain, the one-eyed dragon had just retreated to the mid-mountain position with more than 100 officers and soldiers of the 3rd Company.

Seeing Gao Shenxing whispering the flag from the tower and ordered the third company to close the door and beat the dog, the one-eyed dragon immediately raised his head and beat him up. The remaining one-eyed one also showed a fierce look. He immediately shouted to the surroundings: "Brothers, beat me, beat me to death, and kill all the little Japanese man whom these bitches raised without leaving any of them!"

The officers and soldiers of the third company who had entered the defensive position immediately opened fire fiercely. Two imitation Czech light machine guns and a hundred or so rifle guns instantly intertwined into dense barrage and shot towards the Japanese army on the mountain road. The little Japanese army was killed off guard, and the six or seven Japanese soldiers who rushed to the front fell into a pool of blood in an instant.

However, Koji Wuben's reaction was quick. The remaining forty Japanese troops quickly scattered everywhere, each occupying a favorable position to shoot against the Kuomintang army. The fire support team behind also set up three crooked machine guns and three grenade launchers to prepare to suppress the Kuomintang army that occupied the favorable terrain.

However, at this deadly moment, a fierce gunshot suddenly sounded from the side and rear of the Japanese army. This was the side fire point hidden in the dark and opened fire. The six side fire points were all built in the dark. The shooting range was not wide, but it was enough to lock the entire southern slope of Chaoyang and the only two uphill passages.

Two Maxim heavy machine guns and four imitation Czech light machine guns instantly intertwined into dense barrage, and the scorching machine guns were splashed at the Japanese army without bullets.

The first thing that was suffering was the fire support team that fell to the back, the machine gun hand, the deputy shooter, the ammunition hand, the machine gun commander holding a saber, the three grenade launchers, the captain of the infantry team and his orderly soldiers. Nearly twenty Japanese devils fell under the rapid barrage of rain.

After shooting the Japanese fire support team, the machine gun firepower of several side fire points began to extend forward, shooting and killing Japanese individual soldiers hiding between bushes, small ditches and rocks. The officers and soldiers of the 3rd company in the trenches also threw grenades down. The three infantry teams of Koji Wuben were immediately blown up and flew everywhere.

In less than a moment, more than fifty Japanese soldiers in the entire infantry team were killed. Faced with the fortifications carefully constructed by the Kuomintang army, and the strict orthogonal, side-fire and dark firepower points of the Kuomintang army, Koji Wuben's performance was not much better than the sheep who accidentally entered the wolf's den. The ending could only be torn to pieces and swallowed by the belt bones.

The gunshots on Zudo Mountain suddenly became extremely fierce. Okamoto Shinshen realized that something was wrong. He hurriedly raised his telescope to look up the mountain. When he happened to see the cruel scene of the feint attack team being slaughtered by the fire of the National Army's machine guns. Seeing that Japanese soldiers fell one by one in a pool of blood, Okamoto Shinshen's face suddenly became gloomy.

Shinko Okamoto has always regarded the "God of Military" Nogi Kinomi as his lifelong example. He never takes his life seriously, and naturally he will not take his life or death for dozens of days without his own soldiers. The only thing he cares about is the honor of soldiers and the reputation of samurai!

The feint attack team was completely destroyed in a very short time. Only when the minister of Okamoto had a good face would he have a ghost. He just boasted to the division commander of the army, Seokoo, saying that he could easily take down Niushou Mountain before noon and successfully hit the city of Nanjing before dark. However, as soon as the words fell, the Kuomintang immediately slapped him loudly.

Only then did Okamoto Shinshen realize that his estimate of the national army was deviated. The Chinese army guarding Niushou Mountain not only did not lose their fighting spirit, but was also very cunning.

On the Hongjue Temple Tower, Gao Shenxing withdrew his gaze and turned his head to Xu Shijiu and said, "I really didn't expect that this infantry squad of Xiaojiu's will be finished so soon."

Xu Shijiu said: "This is the terrible thing about side fire.'

Gao Shenxing said: "Yes, I really didn't expect the killing effect of side firepower to be so strong."

Xu Shijiu's expression turned dark and asked Gao Shenxing: "Have you heard of Battalion 1 of the 524th Regiment of the 88th Division?"

Gao Shenxing said: "I heard from Ergua that the day I arrived at the 19th Brigade, this battalion was ambushed by the Japanese army on Xinmin Road. More than 400 officers and soldiers in the battalion were killed in battle, and no one survived."

"Yes, more than 400 brothers in the battalion were lured into depth by the Japanese army, but were ambushed by the Japanese side fire fire, and in the end they were not alive." Xu Shijiu sighed lightly and said sadly, "Today, I can only breathe a little on behalf of Battalion Commander Han and more than 400 brothers. It is so good to teach Xiaojiu that they are not the only ones who know how to use side fire fire fire."

The headmaster Okamoto breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that the man Zhiwu has become smarter and has learned to use side fire points."

Major Kit Kawakita Fuji, the captain of the 3rd Infantry Brigade, said: "Captain of the regiment, the Chinese army not only learned to build side-fire firepower points, but also these side-fire firepower points are also well-organized. It can not only effectively avoid the attacks of the Imperial Army's grenade launcher, but also ensure that the passage to the mountain is blocked. So, should you wait until the field artillery gang arrives before attacking?"

"Black Artillery Corps?" said Okamoto Shintoshi, "No, it will be at least tonight when the fieldillery Corps comes up. Doesn't this mean we have to wait for a day here? It would be fine if we just delay the time. If the 9th Division or the 13th Division first attacks into Nanjing, the Commander will certainly be disappointed, and you must have lost your face, right?"

At this time, the new commander of the Shanghai Condemnation Army, Asakamiya Hirohiko, had already taken office. He and the commander of the 10th Army, Yanagawa Heisuke, were a bit like Sasaki Takatsugu and Ohara Keiki who were fighting for the first prize in the Battle of Ujigawa in the ancient Japanese. Both sides were holding their energy to advance to Nanjing, and it depends on whose troops could enter Nanjing first.

The 6th Division belongs to the 10th Army camp, so naturally he is unwilling to let the 9th and 13th Division belong to the Shanghai Condemnation Army camp take the lead. For Japan himself, capturing Nanjing and destroying China is their dream of immortality. How could Okamoto's minister watch this unparalleled merit slip away from him?

At that moment, Okamoto Shin-jin turned his head to the captain of the 2nd Infantry Brigade, and said, "Sang Takada, the mountain ahead will be handed over to your 2nd Brigade, and you must take it before noon."

"Hayi!" Takada Shido suddenly closed his feet and lowered his head.

The Takata Brigade has four infantry squadrons, one baggage squadron, one heavy machine gun squadron and one infantry artillery squadron. It has 1,100 soldiers at the full squadron. However, on the way to Nanjing, the infantry squadrons suffered repeated battle losses, and the artillery squadrons and the baggage squadrons also fell behind. At this time, the Takata Brigade had only more than 700 combat personnel.

Takada Shido is a typical Japanese samurai. He is short but very strong. He has a square beard on his lips and often shows a terrifying terrifying light in his small eyes. This old devil once used a saber to kill sixteen unarmed civilians in a small village outside Suzhou City, including a baby in a swagger. He is crazy.

Such a crazy old Japanese devil would naturally not be sympathetic to his subordinates. He immediately ordered the four infantry squadrons under the brigade to launch a series of fierce attacks on Zutangshan, and at the cost of fierce attacks. More than 700 Japanese devils were divided into sixteen steps, facing the machine guns of the 19th Brigade, rushing up the mountain one after another.

In order to defend the position, the two Maxim heavy machine guns from the 3rd Company of the 19th Brigade were shot until the cooling water boiled, and the barrels of the six imitation Czech light machine guns were burned red. Veterans from the 3rd Company poured more than a dozen urine on the barrel but failed to lower the temperature. In the end, the two Maxim heavy machine guns and six imitation Czech light machine guns were all shot until the chamber was scrapped!
