Between September 5 and 10, 1939, the vicinity of Nowogród was the scene of fierce defensive battles, the importance of which was overshadowed by the legendary, but in fact much less effective, defense of nearby Wizna. A memento of those days is a complex of several combat shelters scattered in the river valley between Szablak and the bridge in Nowogród. The most famous and the easiest to find is the bunker by the aforementioned road bridge, where the reconstruction of defensive fights has been taking place for several years. Decorated with a commemorative plaque, it now serves as a monument. As every year, on August 5, 2010, historical reenactment groups from all over the country recalled the heroic defense of this section against the advancing overwhelming force of the enemy.

The Nowogród section was part of the defense line stretching along the Narew and Biebrza rivers, the responsibility of maintaining which was entrusted to the Independent Operational Group "Narew" (hereinafter SGO Narew) under the command of Brig. Gen. Czesław Młot-Fijałkowski. The defense belt of SGO Narew was divided into the sections: "Ostrołęka", "Nowogród", "Łomża", "Wizna", "Osowiec" and "Augustów". Nowogród was located on one of the expected main directions of the enemy's attack, led from East Prussia. The task of the "Nowogród" section was to defend the crossing in Nowogród and to defend along the line of the Narew river from the town of Szablak - Mątwica (on the eastern flank) to the line between the settlements of Parzychy and Sulimy (on the western flank). In specific terrain conditions, a tactical and defensive plan had to be prepared, which required:
