"What's the situation?" Han Jianfang, the commander of the 1st Infantry Regiment, ran out of his command center.

Hearing the entire No. 5 sandbank, he knew that something must have happened.

"The regiment commander, Koji*ben launched an attack. A large number of troops were crossing the river. The brothers on the front line were resisting." A staff officer reported.

"Dog*day, I knew that I would not give up these days. After suffering such a huge loss, they could withstand this tone. It's strange. Order the 1st Battalion and the 2nd Battalion to resist the Japanese attack with all their might. The 3rd Battalion is ready and reinforcements are available at any time." Colonel Han Jianfang ordered.

"Yes, regiment commander." The staff officer saluted and immediately went to convey the order.

"Send a telegram to the division headquarters, we were suddenly attacked by the Japanese army. The Japanese army invested a large number of troops, and the situation was very urgent. We needed fire support and more reinforcements." Han Jianfang ordered.

Although it seemed a bit embarrassing to ask for help from the division headquarters. However, Colonel Han Jianfang knew that this is not the time to be a hero. He should not cause heavy losses to his troops because of being a hero. In this case, I would be sorry for those brothers who fought bloody battles.

"Yes, regiment commander." The correspondent immediately went to send a telegram.

"Da da da da da da! Boom! Boom! Boom!" The fierce battle has begun on the front line. The 1st Battalion and 2nd Battalion of the 1st Regiment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, stationed in the east of Shazhou No. 5, are desperately pouring firepower into the Japanese army.

The dense machine gun bullets swept towards the river like a storm. The attacking Japanese army suffered heavy losses under the attack of dense firepower.

The wooden boat could not resist the powerful machine gun bullets at all, and was quickly shot with bullet holes.

Many Japanese troops fell directly into the river after being shot. Blood flowed out of their bodies, dyeing the river water red.

"Boom! Boom!"

Mortars and grenade launchers are also firing desperately. In particular, grenade launchers, which are already at the squad level, have played a great role in combat.

Although the grenade fired by the grenade launcher is not very powerful. However, it is not something that a wooden boat can withstand. After a grenade explodes, not only will the Japanese army on the boat suffer heavy losses. Even the boat will be blown up. All the Japanese soldiers on it fell into the river and were drowned alive.

After all, the possibility of fully armed Japanese troops escaping after falling into the water was almost zero.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

The flares were lifted up one after another, illuminating the entire river like day. The night was dispersed and no longer provided any cover to the Japanese army. In this case, if they wanted to successfully land, they had to pay a heavy price.

Although the river channel is not wide, the water flows fast. It is not so easy to cross the river successfully. In this time, the fierce counterattack of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army has already paid a huge price for the Japanese army.

Colonel Soshiro Kaneoka and Colonel Aihara Fearless Assistant also became solemn when they saw this situation. At first, they thought that the two regiments took action, and no matter how powerful the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army was, they could not resist their attack. But now it seems that the situation is more complicated than they imagined!

"Order all the teams to strengthen the attack. No matter what, you must defeat the Chinese people." Colonel Soshiro Kaneoka ordered.

Colonel Aihara fearless Suspension also issued a similar order.

At the command center of the 1st Army of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, when gunfire sounded, Lieutenant General Sun Changwu, Lieutenant General Yu Chengyin and others were awakened, and immediately put on their clothes and came to the war room.

Soon, Major General Lu Hengliang, the commander of the 1st Infantry Division, also arrived.

"How is the situation?" asked Lieutenant General Sun Changwu.

"Captain, Japan himself launched an attack on Sand Bank No. 5, and they invested a large number of troops. Although they have not successfully landed. However, it is undoubtedly very difficult to resist Japan himself's attack by relying solely on the 1st Infantry Regiment. Han Jianfang has sent a telegram for help." Major General Lu Hengliang reported.

"Get another regiment to go to No. 5 Shazhou. No matter what, No. 5 Shazhou must be controlled by us. In addition, draw a regiment to be ready at any time. Once the situation on the front line changes, you must be able to immediately enter the battlefield." Sun Changwu ordered.

"Yes, commander." Major General Lu Hengliang nodded.

"Fortunately, the engineers have already built the pontoon bridge, otherwise, the sneak attack from Japan himself would really make us fuss." Lieutenant General Yu Chengyin smiled.

The Engineer Brigade and the Engineer Battalions of each division worked together to build several pontoon bridges leading to Sand No. 5 on the west bank of the Wonbin River. This allowed the soldiers and various combat materials needed on the front line to be quickly sent to Sand No. 5 through the pontoon bridge. This is also the reason why the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army was not worried about the Japanese attack.

"By the way, how is the pontoon bridge that can pass through tanks and armored vehicles?" Sun Changwu asked.

"Commander, we have built a specially reinforced pontoon bridge that can pass through tanks and armored vehicles. Article 2 has also completed most of the project. It is expected that it will be completed by noon tomorrow." Meng Guohua, the commander of the Engineer Brigade, reported.

"Well, that would be great. Lao Hu, let the Armored Brigade send a tank battalion and a mechanized infantry battalion to prepare. Be ready to go through the pontoon bridge to fight at No. 5 Sand Bank. This time, I want to let all Japanese* himself, who dare to attack, come and go." Lieutenant General Sun Changwu ordered.

He secretly guessed that since Japan himself once again invested in the main force in this wave of attack, this means that the Japanese army has put all the final foundation in it. If all these Japanese troops can be killed, then the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army can launch a large-scale counterattack.

"Yes, the commander of the army. The armored brigade ensures that all Japanese people who set foot on the No. 5 sandbank will be back and forth." Major General Hu Cuiming, the commander of the 1st Armored brigade, said confidently.

"Old Yu, since Japan has put in the last elite troops, this means that they are planning to take a gamble. If we can annihilate the elite troops of the Japanese army, then we have no worries and can launch a counterattack immediately." Sun Changwu said.

Yu Chengyin nodded: "It's time to launch a counterattack, otherwise, there will inevitably be more dreams."

"Order the commanders of each division and the commanders of each brigade to go to the command center for a meeting immediately."
