The Qi Army, which had been prepared, was somewhat flustered but still persisted in fighting. On the temporary Qi Army position stationed at the entrance of the village, a row of Qi soldiers were crazily firing their Shireck Model 1 rifles towards the direction of the Tang Army tanks.
After just hearing the sound of the machine-guns firing next door, the Qi Army commander here issued the order to defend the village to the death.
The Qi troops then began preparing, choosing the hedges at the head of the village and some mud walls as cover, deploying soldiers and also arranging machine-gun positions.
Additionally, relying on the village, at both sides of the village, the Qi Army had also deployed some soldiers, and even behind these soldiers, two cannons had been set up.
