Chapter 176: Closing the Circle
"Wing Captain, Wing Captain, big things are not good! The 6th Infantry Wing, which was covered by the rear of the palace, suffered heavy casualties, and the captain of the Sato Wing had already died! At present, the 6th Infantry Wing has less than 500 soldiers left, and it cannot hold out. โ
Misfortune is not a one-way street, and before Jiro Ueno came to his senses, a terrified devil soldier retreated from the north, and when he saw Jiro Ueno in a hurry, he reported in horror.
Jiro Ueno slapped the devil soldier who reported the report, "Yaga Yalu, you are a soldier of the empire, stabilize my position, don't mess up." โ
"Hay, Captain! The little one understands! The devil soldier didn't dare to cover his face, so he could only bow his head and bow his head.
And Jiro Ueno looked around the north, and saw that the remnants of the 6th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, which was covering the 68th Infantry Wing behind the palace to concentrate on the assault to the south, were already very scarce, and the artillery fire was all over the world, and the remnants of the 6th Infantry Wing really hit only about 500 remnants left.
"You drop, take a squadron north, and hand it over to Koichi Kataki, chief of staff of the 6th Infantry Wing, and ask him to resist me. I have to be resisted. If the enemy army rushes down from the north, we will be dead by the enemy on our backs. โ
Ueno Jiro shouted with a gloomy face to the devil soldiers who came to report the battle situation, and at this time, Ueno Jiro was also not calm, he was attacked before and after, and the end of his 68th Infantry Wing and 6th Infantry Wing being wiped out was already inevitable.
It's just that until the end, Jiro Ueno still held on to the end.
ยทโ Haly, Your Excellency Wing Commander. โ
The devil soldier paused heavily, and then hurried away.
Then, Jiro Ueno said to the chief of staff, Taro Ichiki: "Chief of Staff, I bother you to personally command the rest of the troops and attack the enemy encirclement position in the south again. Li Yunlong has already launched a general attack, and we can only force a general assault now, and there is no other way. โใ
"Hay, Your Excellency Wing Commander, do your bidding."
Ichiki Taro also replied bitterly, and at this time, even Jiro Ueno understood that at this time, there was only one way to fight.
As Jiro Ueno responded again, the fierce battle in Weijiatun intensified a little.
However, under the command of Li Yunlong, the units of the new regiment condescendingly charged down from the surrounding hills of Weijiatun. Coupled with the condescending cover of the important light and heavy machine-gun fire on the hills around Weijiatun, the Japanese troops in Tunzhong suffered heavy casualties.
"Boom, boom!!!"
"Tutu Tutu !!!"
......
The sound of gunfire continued to sound in Weijiatun, and the soldiers on both sides were already engaged in close combat on the ground in Weijiatun.
"Good! Order the troops, continue the attack! The devil troops in Weijiatun must be dealt with. Time was running out, and the casualties of the troops blocking Katayama Riichiro had increased, and the speed had increased. Order Zhang Dabiao and others to speed up and deal with the remnants of the Japanese army in Weijiatun within ten minutes, as soon as possible!! โ
Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Li Yunlong then shouted an order to the battalion staff officer next to him.
The blocking force had already reported that the second battalion was difficult to block, and it was the first time that they had called Li Yunlong, asking Li Yunlong to quickly end the battle in Weijiatun as soon as possible and turn back to reinforce the second battalion.
"Understood, Captain." The staff officer of the headquarters responded, and then immediately called Zhang Dabiao and the others to speed up the attack, and strive to solve the remnants of the devils who were ambushed in Weijiatun within ten minutes.
Li Yunlong's strict order was quickly conveyed to all departments, and Zhang Dabiao, Ma Wenhai and other commanders and fighters also knew that the second battalion commander Shen Qun commanded the blocking troops to block the attack of Katayama Satoichiro's reinforcements, and the pressure was very high.
Therefore, Zhang Dabiao and other commanders and fighters also personally went to the front line to urge the soldiers of all units to attack bravely.
The shouts of killing suddenly became deafening in Weijiatun, and many devil soldiers were defeated and retreated by the oppressive attacks of Zhang Dabiao and others.
In particular, Koichi Kataki, chief of staff of the 6th Infantry Wing, who was in charge of the rear of the palace, commanded the remnants of the 6th Infantry Wing and a squadron specially dispatched by Jiro Ueno.
"Bang Bang Bang !!"
A few bullets from which direction they came from slammed onto the ground less than a meter away from Koichi Katagi, which frightened Takashi Kataki one by one.
"Eight Ga Ya Road!"
Takashi Katagi hid one by one, but he still shouted loudly to command the devil soldiers to fight bravely against the new group of soldiers.
"Chief of Staff, the various units have suffered heavy casualties and are retreating one after another, and I am afraid that they will not be able to hold out for long. If Jiro Ueno and the others can't break through the new encirclement at the entrance of Weijiatun, we can only be annihilated. โ
In the midst of the gunfire, a devil staff officer hurriedly found Koichi Kataki and said bitterly.
Kataki Koichi looked around, there were corpses of the killed devil soldiers everywhere, stumps and broken arms and gunpowder smoke filled it, and the degree of blood stars on the battlefield could be seen, and there were already devil soldiers who began to flee from the battle.
Koichi Kataki had personally killed a devil soldier who was trying to escape with a southern pistol just a minute earlier.
It is conceivable that the Japanese soldiers belonging to the 3rd Division began to appear when they had a strong will to fight, indicating that the intensity of the battle situation had made the spirit of the remaining devil soldiers unbearable.
"We are the elite troops of the 5th Brigade under the 3rd Division, and even if we die in battle, we will not be able to escape. In the current situation, the only way to kill a new regiment of soldiers is to pull one more pad on the verge of death! Order all the soldiers, fight to the death, we are the soldiers of the most elite armor division in the empire, kill! โ
Koichi Kataki roared a little sadly, what else can be done at this time? There is only a fight to the death, and as for surrender, it is impossible to surrender in this life, and it is impossible.
Seeing this, the devil staff officer knew that there was no room for maneuver, so he could only leave with a wry smile and leave to supervise the devil soldiers to fight to the end.
But I have to say that Koichi Kataki's desperate supervision of the battle surprised Zhang Dabiao and others who were in the general attack.
However, at this time, the battle of Weijiatun was basically at the end, and even if Kataki Takaichi had the ability to reach the sky, it would be useless.
As Li Yunlong commanded Zhang Dabiao and others to strengthen the offensive, the ambush encirclement and annihilation battle in Weijiatun gradually came to an end. Less than five minutes after Koichi Katagi finished his last order, the covering troops behind the palace under his command were completely wiped out by Zhang Dabiao and others, and Koichi Kataki was beaten into a hornet's nest by the new group of soldiers.
"Captain, we're surrounded! The 6th Infantry Wing is finished, and there are less than 700 people left in our 68th Wing! Looking at the new regiment that did not even persuade those to surrender after the completion of the siege, the chief of staff of the 68th Infantry Wing, Taro Ichiki, said bitterly to Jiro Ueno, and his tone was quite desolate.
There were four or five thousand soldiers in the new regiment approaching the attack on all sides, and the attack of the new regiment of soldiers was very skillful, even if the regiment surrounded them, they would attack steadily and without any confusion.
