Chapter 77: Successful Cannon
Although the resistance of the Japanese army was not very fierce, there were still three or two big cats and small cats shooting at them, so that the soldiers who acted in small groups were still a little slow.
Anyway, they're going to have to kill these guys who dare to resist, right?
But with three loud bangs, three fireballs rose into the air, and the Japanese army's will to resist collapsed on all fronts.
When they rushed to the gun, there was not a single Japanese soldier, so the sergeant who led the team mistakenly thought that he had encountered a trap for a moment. The Japanese don't hide and shoot cold, do they?
But the fact is that the Japanese artillery has become a rabbit that has blown up its nest, and the smarter ones have a smarter head, and they don't care what kind of gun they have, they turn around and drill into the mountains. Don't ask to run past the bullets of the Chinese, just run past the gang of colleagues, anyway, the Chinese kill people and don't look at the face? Catch one and slaughter the other.
You run, I run, everyone runs together, and the defeat is like a mountain, and that's the truth.
Of course, there are also harder ones, no matter whether the Chinese bomb or grab the artillery, anyway, the cannon cannot fall into the hands of the Chinese.
Several large fireballs rose again from the position, and at least four guns were blown up alive by the Japanese themselves. At this point, the ordinary artillerymen were much stronger than their captain Shaozuo who blew himself up.
However, there were still at least a dozen guns left intact waiting for the death squad to receive them, and after the 10-man team occupied the target, they immediately used two people each to hold the artillery, while the others searched for the fleeing Japanese artillery along the artillery.
It is not necessary to wipe out all the Japanese artillery who fled into the mountains, but mainly to completely clean up the battlefield and eliminate all possible hidden threats, which Liu Lang had already explained to everyone before the battle.
At this time, relying on the front and rear flanking attacks, the Japanese infantry squadron was completely annihilated, and nearly 200 people from the pistol company and dozens of people led by Chi Dakui also rushed over from there, and the Japanese artillery they killed along the way was no less than Liu Lang and them.
One second to remember: /or
The main thing is that Liu Lang and them rushed like this, as long as the Japanese artillery was a normal person, they would subconsciously run in the opposite direction of the enemy's rush, or remember that there was an infantry squadron of their own over there, and they wanted to seek their wing protection.
Who knows that the strength and firepower of the Chinese over there are even more fierce than on this side, whether they resist or want to surrender on their knees, the group of red-eyed Chinese is a shuttle head-on, killing the Japanese army on the battlefield and wailing.
In this sabotage war, there will be no prisoners, and the Chinese and the Japanese are destined to have only one side able to stand on the battlefield, standing alive and lying dead.
There are also those who are more flexible, and they don't run backwards, but flee to the wings, and there are still a lot of such fish that slip through the net.
It's just that running into the mountains in a panic at night is not so fun, some are poked by branches in a panic, and some fall off the cliff and fall to their deaths.
And if you lose your mobility in the mountains, the result can be imagined. There are not only wolves but also wild boars in the mountainsγγγγγγ
A few years later, there were still mountain people who found white bones in this mountain forest called Banbi Mountain, and I think it was those smart people.
Of course, it was not without the return of Japanese artillery who escaped by chance. It's just that in the military history records of the Japanese army, only 93 people returned to the team within a few days.
The official number of the two artillery brigades is as high as 1,400 people, which also means that more than 1,300 people died in this dark night attack led by Liu Lang.
A near-total annihilation.
And the 24 Type 41 mountain guns became captured by the Chinese. Although the Japanese army also knew that the Chinese could not take away those big guys.
It's just that they're gone.
From this moment on, Suzuki Mitsu's 4th Infantry Brigade had no curve guns, and what he could still use was the 92 infantry guns that the infantry wing was originally equipped with, with 10 guns per infantry wing, a total of 20 guns.
It was actually very quick to attack the Japanese army and defeat the Japanese army, but it took half an hour to clear the battlefield and chase down the Japanese army.
Under Liu Lang's order, piles of bonfires were lit on the position, and the Japanese army was quite good at enjoying it, knowing the cold of the spring night in northern China, they picked up a lot of firewood to store after coming.
It didn't take much effort to light dozens of bonfires to dispel the darkness. Anyway, at this time, the Japanese army had no artillery, and Liu Lang was not afraid of exposing the target at all.
What he has to do now is to use the nearly 400 troops he has at his disposal to completely clean up this battlefield and turn this place into his territory, at least for this night.
Many Japanese soldiers hiding in the grass were exposed by the light of bright bonfires, and then were mercilessly slaughtered in the bushes.
In the face of these Japanese routs who had lost their courage and did not even have weapons, the officers and men of the death squad were reluctant to waste bullets and directly used their broadswords.
The once mighty Japanese army has become a lamb to the slaughter at this moment.
This is the psychological breakdown brought about by the defeat, they have lost the courage to resist, and they want to plunge their heads into the soil and become an ostrich escaping from reality.
The Japanese, who are not as strong as they think, behaved just as ridiculously when the fragile floodgates were opened.
Mo Xuanqing was not idle, and after the battle situation was basically stabilized, he led more than a dozen people to search for the wounded while counting the results.
As soon as Liu Lang and the pistol company commander He who came to Huihe finished greetings, he ran over excitedly and couldn't hide his excitement and reported loudly: "Report to the captain!" According to statistics, the battle took 40 minutes, and about 600 enemies were annihilated on the spot, and the rest all fled;
Eighteen Japanese Type 41 mountain guns were captured intact, and the shells did not have time to be counted, but according to visual observations, there were about 1,000 more. β
"Okay, yes!" Lang Fat cracked his big mouth and was happy. "What about our casualties?"
"I just went to look for it, six people were killed in the battle, all of them fell on the way to the charge, and there were about a dozen brothers who were injured, but none of the injuries were serious." Speaking of casualties, Mo Xuanqing, who was extremely excited, became a little low.
After all, he was only a scholar before January, and he had not yet fully learned to accept the cruelty of the battlefield, even if such a casualty rate was low enough to make the commander happy, but it was still a little difficult for him to accept that someone who had been alive in front of him more than an hour ago died in front of him like this.
"Find a few men, clean up the brothers who died in battle, wash their faces with water, cover their faces with white towels, and then find a sunny place to bury them first. Remember, the grave must be dug deep so that wild beasts don't dig it out or the Japanese can find it. Also, be sure to mark it so that you can find it later. Liu Lang admonished carefully, looking into the distance: "This time, I'm afraid we won't have time to take them back." β
Watching Mo Xuanqing take the order and leave, Liu Lang set his eyes on He Guangqi, and his gaze became a little solemn: "Company Commander He, don't talk nonsense, I'm going to have a big deal with the Japanese here, whether to do it with me or not." Do it with me, you and your pistol company are members of my death squad, if you don't do it with me, Chief Liu ordered the artillery you brought to hand over to me, disassemble the two mountain guns, and you take them away. β
This one is really domineering!
He Guangqi smiled bitterly.
But he could only stand up and salute Liu Lang: "Before leaving, the division explained to me that here, the pistol company is under the full command of Captain Liu." β
"Haha, it's still interesting enough for Chief Liu." Liu Lang laughed. "Then Company Commander He, you are now the deputy captain of the death squad. Let's play with the Japanese together, let that old devil Suzuki Mitsu have a good time. β
Well, you're welcome. So he took the pistol company under his command.
It's just, what does that cool mean? He Da Chang is obviously a little unable to keep up with the rhythm of fat butterflies and some trendy ones.
