Some Japanese and puppet troops had gathered under the wall of the village and began to build ladders. At this time, the weapon of defense was the grenade in the hands of the defenders. If a grenade was thrown down, as long as it was not too outrageous, it would be no problem to blow down two or three enemy troops on the spot.

However, any weapon is used by people. If you throw grenades under the village wall, you must stick half of your body out. The soldiers in a squadron are now all burying their heads and shooting outside. No one has the courage to poke out and drop bombs.

Seeing that the situation was already very critical, Zhao Wenguang quickly ordered the second squadron, the second squadron, as the reserve team, to rush up to the village wall.

The thirty or so soldiers rushed up to the village wall and threw it in time. After a burst of violent explosions, the bottom of the village wall was in chaos. The Japanese and puppet troops died of wounds, and several simple cloud ladders that had just come up were pushed under the village wall.

The Japanese were quite tenacious. After they were frustrated, they did not retreat immediately. Instead, they continued to organize manpower to build ladders again. At this time, the soldiers of the second platoon began to throw things down again. These things were the local bombs that Han Jizhong found to imitate Chenjiazhai.

These earth bombs are mainly made of black gunpowder, mixed with iron sand, iron nails, etc. The black gunpowder explosion is not very powerful, but the countless iron sands inside and the fan of iron nails is not small. The earth bombs are ignited first and then thrown out. Often after a muffled sound, a stream of black smoke immediately rises from the explosion. After the black smoke dissipates, you can see one or two Japanese and puppet troops who are black painted by the explosion of black gunpowder. However, these Japanese and puppet troops who are black painted are not directly killed, but have countless small holes on their bodies bleed. These small holes are the iron sand and nails inside the earth bomb.

Although these small wounds cannot be fatal immediately, there are many wounds, and there are only a lot of bleeding, which is also painful. If the injured person does not bandage it in time, excessive bleeding can kill people. Therefore, often a Japanese and puppet army is injured by a local bomb, and several Japanese and puppet troops around him have to surround him to help bandage. Watanabe's second wave of attack was stopped, so Watanabe had to issue an order to the front, and the troops temporarily retreat to prepare for the next attack.

The panic on the village wall temporarily calmed down. At this time, seven or eight Niuwang Village residents walked up to the village wall with gunpowder guns on their backs.

Seeing that the Japanese and puppet troops had temporarily retreated, the soldiers in the first squadron began to become more courageous. They laughed and said, "You are all native guys who kill birds. Don't just hear the sound, you can't kill anyone."

The village people just saw the performance of these soldiers with their own eyes, and someone fired back: "The foreign things in your hands are advanced and they are very loud, but how many Japanese have you killed? In the end, it wasn't our earth bomb that worked? You're like that, you're like 'one line', and our earthy things are like 'one big area'. At that time, maybe we're going to have to save your lives by relying on our earthy things."

Just as everyone was quarreling, another attack led by Watanabe began. Because there was no heavy artillery that could blow up the stone wall in his hand, nor did it bring a large amount of explosives, Watanabe could only use the method of directly attacking the wall with people.

This attack was like a replica of the last attack, except that the firepower preparation time of the Japanese and puppet troops was a little longer and more violent, and the Japanese and puppet troops were hit faster.

People kept falling down along the way, but the Japanese and puppet troops seemed to be very determined to attack. They rushed under the village wall again and began to set up simple ladders.

Because of the demonstration just now by the second platoon of the Second Squadron, the soldiers of the First Squadron became bolder this time and they began to drop bombs under the village wall. The villagers also picked up gunpowder guns and pointed them at the Japanese and puppet troops under the village wall. The busy Japanese and puppet troops could not withstand this counterattack. They left the broken ladder and the dead, and hurriedly retreated to the place where they began to attack.

Although there were long-standing strong village walls and fortifications prepared long ago, the firepower of the Japanese and puppet troops still caused a lot of casualties to the defenders. After the Japanese and puppet troops retreated, the villagers and the regiments who assisted in the battle quickly went up to the village walls and carried the casualties down.

After repelling several attacks in a row, Zhao Wenguang's mood gradually stabilized. He carried his pistol to patrol the village wall and greeted the soldiers from time to time.

When he patrolled the soldiers of the second platoon, Zhao Wenguang held the hand of the second platoon leader and thanked him repeatedly. As the battlefield commander, he knew that if the second platoon had not provided timely reinforcements, this small village wall might have been broken long ago.

Watanabe's attacks failed several times, and the defenders tended to become stronger and stronger as they fought. This made Watanabe very distressed. The health soldiers around him were bandaging the injured, and Watanabe was thinking hard about how to capture this small village.

At this moment, fierce gunfire came not far from the left. Watanabe picked up the telescope and saw that it turned out that the one fighting with his troops on the left was a team of national troops, and their troops were definitely more than one platoon.

These people were the rows and some regiments brought by Koroko. He wanted to give Watanabe's troops a side attack during Watanabe's next attack, but he didn't expect that he was discovered by Watanabe's service, so the sneak attack failed and the troops on both sides began to exchange fire.

Xiao Liuzi originally planned to launch a sneak attack, so he did not build positions or fortifications. When the Japanese and puppet troops came, they could only counterattack based on the existing terrain.

The Japanese and puppet soldiers had a large number of people, and their firepower was much stronger than Xiao Liuzi and others. The row of officers and soldiers led by Xiao Liuzi gradually could not resist. In order to reduce unnecessary casualties, Xiao Liuzi was preparing to order the troops to retreat. At this moment, suddenly a group of people rushed over. After they arrived at the battlefield, they immediately unfolded in combat formations, facing the Japanese and puppet troops attacking the attacking row from the side to shoot.

These ten people were the soldiers of the communication squad who had just been blocking. They immediately turned around after attracting the puppet troops to a distance, and quickly returned to the Niuwangzhai battlefield with the rapid movement ability of the horses. At this time, they happened to encounter the Japanese and puppet attacking Xiaoliuzi's row, and they immediately dismounted their horses and turned into infantry, and began to attack the Japanese and puppet troops.

In the field state, the Japanese army's combat ability was significantly stronger than that of Xiaoliuzi's Second Squadron. Even if the cavalry squad joined the battle, it could not stop the Japanese and puppet attack. After more than ten minutes of fire between the two sides, the cavalry squad and Xiaoliuzi's rows merged and retreated.

This time, the small-scale battle was short and the intensity was not very large. Both sides suffered casualties. However, the sudden appearance of these two troops gave Watanabe an illusion. He believed that these two small troops were the vanguard troops of the other side's reinforcements, and the opponent's large troops might arrive soon.

After repelling a row of communication squads, Watanabe carefully observed the nearby Niuwang Village through a telescope, while commanding the troops to prepare for another attack on Niuwang Village.

There were people moving around the village wall, and it was obviously the defenders preparing for the next battle. Watanabe estimated that the enemy reinforcements should be very close. If they want to complete the task of rectifying the battle, they could only launch the most violent attack to capture Niuwang Village in the shortest time.

After making up his mind, he pulled out his command knife and pointed at Niu Wangzhai: "Attack, attack"...
