Chapter 76: I Don't Want to Die
Wang Yan became a prophecy.
The next day was a killing show by the Japanese army.
The Japanese Takeuchi Wing used many unheard of and unseen tactics to carry out a frenzied massacre of the officers and soldiers of the three echelons in front and behind the Yu Division.
such as high-voltage power grids,
gas bombs, gasoline barrels,
Explosives packet with broken glass,
There are even pitfalls with bamboo nails buried!
Even the rolling wood and stones handed down by the ancestors of the Chinese were used by the Japanese army.
Of course, the most efficient way to kill is to use firepower intensively! Through a network of tunnels like spider webs that extended in all directions, the Japanese Takeuchi Wing quickly concentrated the light and heavy machine guns, grenadiers, and even battle defense guns of the second and even third defenses on the riverside to the first defense of the river, and fired wildly at the officers and men of the Yu Division who crossed the river and attacked.
In the sand table confrontation with Wang Yan in the Chanda ancestral hall, Master Yu finally hit the tree fort in Nantianmen.
Although it was still a failure in the end, at least, the officers and soldiers of the Yu Division had already fought outside the Tree Fort, and they were only a little short of taking the South Heavenly Gate!
However, after the real fight, it turned out that it was not like that at all!
In actual combat, the Japanese army was much more vicious, more vicious, and more ferocious than Wang Yan!
In order to stop the attack of the Yu Division, in order to kill and wound the officers and soldiers of the Yu Division as much as possible, the Japanese army even invested small troops to launch a suicidal counter-charge.
These suicidal Japanese soldiers were all carrying explosive bags.
As long as one such Japanese soldier rushed into the middle of the national army, the result was that one Japanese soldier took away a group, at least dozens of them!
Moreover, such tactics have been tried and tested, and Yu Shi can't find an effective way to deal with it at all, because no one knows from which hole these Japanese soldiers who launched a suicide charge will come out!
So the final result was that from early morning to evening, for more than ten hours, Yu Shi failed to break through the first defense at the cost of almost the death of the entire division!
None of the defenses were able to break through! No!
In the evening, under the Nantian Gate, the west bank of the Nu River was really full of corpses of the national army!
Tens of thousands of corpses of the national army almost filled the river beach on the west bank of the Nu River!
From Xingtiandu down, the surface of the Nu River for more than ten miles is dyed dark red!
Many corpses of the national army were swept into the Nu River and washed downstream dozens of miles away, and in the next half a month, the corpses of the national army were washed to the shore from time to time, how tragic!
……
Yu Xiaoqing had a dark face and strode towards the ferry.
On the ferry, hundreds of assault boats, boats, rubber boats and even bamboo rafts have turned back.
The officers and soldiers of the engineer battalion all looked at Yu Xiaoqing, but their eyes were obviously different from before, before that, the officers and soldiers of the Yu Division looked at Yu Xiaoqing's eyes, fanatical and awe-inspiring.
But today, obviously, with suppressed anger!
Yu Xiaoqing felt this suppressed anger!
His eyes swept over the faces of the officers and soldiers of the guard company and the engineer battalion, and Yu Xiaoqing said: "When the battle is fought on this point, it is superfluous to say anything, and only then will it be rested!" ”
"Master Yu didn't have a coward who escaped from the battle!"
"Master Yu only has warriors who die in the face of bullets!"
"Even if there is only one person left, you must swear to take the South Heavenly Gate! He Shuguang! Yu Zhi! Li Bing! ”
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
He Shuguang, Li Bing and Yu Zhi stepped forward in response.
Yu Xiaoqing said expressionlessly: "Take all the brothers of the guard company, the search team and the chariot company, cross the Nu River with me, and fight to the death against the Japanese invaders!" ”
"Yes!" He Shuguang and the three of them responded violently.
The eyes of the officers and men of the engineer battalion finally brightened again.
"And you, sapper battalion!" Yu Xiaoqing said in a deep voice, "You don't have to come back after sending us across the Nu River this time, and follow me to the South Heavenly Gate!" ”
"Yes!" The sappers responded with enthusiasm.
However, at this time, Tang Ji came in a hurry.
"Xiaoqing! Xiaoqing! Xiaoqing! Tang Ji shouted repeatedly, "There is an order from the peak, and the attack will be stopped!" ”
"What?" Yu Xiaoqing looked back and glared at Tang Ji viciously like a wolf, as if he wanted to swallow him alive.
The eyes of the sappers fell on Yu Xiaoqing's body, the burning heat in his eyes began to dissipate, he became indifferent again, and the color of suppressed anger sprouted again.
"Xiaoqing, the attack is stopped, the attack is stopped!"
Tang Ji trotted to Yu Xiaoqing, and gasped: "There is an order from the peak, and the attack is stopped!" Our Master Yu has shed enough blood to be able to bleed any more. ”
"Vice-Master!" A sapper couldn't help but ask loudly, "Did the more than 10,000 brothers who crossed the river die in vain?" Aren't we going to avenge them? Well? ”
"If you want revenge, of course you want to take revenge." "But not today. ”
"We can't fight anymore today, and if we continue to fight, we will have to fight hard, as the saying goes, if you stay in the green mountains, you are not afraid of no firewood, and our Yu Shi can't fight again."
Now He Shuguang couldn't help it: "Then what are you fighting today?" ”
Yu Zhi, Li Bing, and the officers and soldiers of the engineer battalion also had the same question.
Did you hit anything today? After a busy day, tens of thousands of people died, just to prove the solidity of the Nantianmen fortifications? Just to prove the ferocity of the Japanese army?
Is it just to prove that it is not feasible to storm the South Heavenly Gate?
It has obviously been deduced on the sand table, why do you need to prove it with human life?
"Master!" He Shuguang, Yu Zhi, Li Bing and the others all brushed their eyes on Yu Xiaoqing.
Although Yu Xiaoqing's relatives have no brains, they still have the courage, and when the battle comes to this point, they have not hesitated to die, they would rather die in battle than with the brothers who crossed the river!
Yu Xiaoqing's facial muscles twitched twice, and said, "Obey the order." ”
"Master!" He Shuguang suddenly became anxious and shouted, "Let's cross the river!" ”
"Obey orders!" Yu Xiaoqing's face immediately turned cold, "Soldiers should take obedience to orders as their duty!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes, it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders." Tang Ji said repeatedly, "Company Commander He, Company Commander Yu, Company Commander Li, the division has already given an order, hurry up and bring the troops back." ”
"Brethren of the sapper battalion, pack up and go back."
……
On the Gaoligong Mountain.
Meng was annoyed and said: "Master Yu has died tens of thousands of people, do you guess the camp, will Yu Xiaoqing cross the river by himself?" ”
"I guess so." Dou Cake whispered, "This is a total attack, the three echelons of the Yu division have crossed the river, how can Yu Xiaoqing, the division commander, not cross the river?" ”
"Eh, he can not pass the river." Meng was annoyed and said, "Because he is Yu Xiaoqing, the nephew of Chief Yu, and the future head of the Yu family, how can he die here?" ”
"So, guys, I mean you."
"You are all cannon fodder, even if you are all dead, those bigwigs on the other side of the river, just that, play that kind and good-tempered Chief Chen, without blinking an eye."
Dou Cake immediately said with a bitter face: "I don't want to die." ”
