Chapter 135: Suzuki, who almost died of anger
Suzuki Mitsu, located 700 meters away, got a report on the latest battle situation in front of him, and the two infantry squadrons were able to return to the position at the bottom of the mountain alive, but only 100 people, nearly 200 people were left on the Chinese Rao position, and his head was suddenly confused.
If it weren't for the fact that Bian's subordinates were quick to help, the estimated list of Liu Yan's military exploits would have added a major general and brigade commander who was angry to death.
"Shame, this is the shame of my 4th Infantry Brigade, the shame of the Imperial Army, Kasawara Chuan is such a fool, he should go to court-martial!" Shaking his head, trying to calm down, Mitsu Suzuki roared with a flush on his face.
Suzuki's frantic roar caused silence in the headquarters, and the silence seemed to be inaudible, and no one dared to persuade the brigade commander whose hair seemed to be about to stand on end.
More than 300 Imperial soldiers were shattered by more than half of the more than 300 Imperial soldiers under the cover of nearly ten infantry guns and dozens of grenadiers, and in front of only a few hundred enemy positions, no commander who nodded his face could accept such a result.
Kasawara Kawa Osa belongs to the kind of shameless person, knowing that Suzuki Mitsu must be furious at this time, he waited a little for ten minutes before running from the front-line command to personally apologize to Suzuki Mitsu.
Mitsu Suzuki, who has calmed down, doesn't do anything to Kasawara River, and in fact, he can't do anything to a wing captain of the big rank, especially when this kind of battle is not over, and to make any substantial punishment for a person who is in the top three of the entire brigade, it will only make the morale of the already not very high fall again.
"Kasahara-kun, there is no need to apologize, and then I want to see the warriors of the Imperial Army under your command wash away their shame, and I will ask for air support again, and at the same time, I have already asked His Excellency the division commander to transfer more than two heavy artillery pieces to support, before dark, I would like to see the flag of the 31st Infantry Wing planted on the top of that mountain.
I don't want to see any more casualty figures about your unit before the military flag is planted on the top of the mountain, if all the soldiers are dead, then the captain and squadron leader will be on it, if the squadron leader is all dead, Kasawara-kun, you will personally take the three Shaosa captains under your command up! Mito Suzuki coldly threw a sentence at Kasahara River, and waved him out of the headquarters.
For this heavy general who has been unable to complete the combat mission again and again, Mitsu Suzuki has completely lost patience, and naturally he will not save any face.
And the heavy artillery support he asked for from Xi Yiyi was actually on the road now, twenty kilometers away from Luo Wenyu, and only about sixteen kilometers away from the three highlands where Liu Lang was.
Remember the URL mom
Suzuki Mitsu is not stupid, the two artillery brigades under his command are finished, this news can never be hidden, it is better to admit it as soon as possible, and if there is no howitzer like a curved artillery, what will he use to conquer the Luowenyu Pass?
Just those 70 mm caliber infantry guns? Don't be funny, it's specially used for part-time work, what decent fortifications do the Chinese have for them to fight? The Chinese were hidden in deep trenches, and apart from the curved howitzers, infantry artillery was of little use to them. That is to say, it can have some effect on the Chinese who have not even had time to dig deep trenches on these high ground in front of them, and if the battle continues to drag on, the infantry artillery will sooner or later lose its effect on them.
However, if you wait for the arrival of 155 caliber heavy artillery, it will be the end of all China here.
Mitsumi Suzuki looked into the distance, never more expecting to see the heavy artillerymen with their nostrils facing than he did now. It's like an old girl to be married, waiting for the groom who will come to pick up her and will be excited for the first time in her life.
。。。。。。。
As the saying goes: big fish eat fish, fish eat hemp shrimp, hemp shrimp can only eat stinky mud! Don't look at Suzuki Mitsu who can scold Kasahara River to the point of blood, but in front of his immediate superior, Lieutenant General Nishiyichi, the commander of the Eighth Division, he is just a "wooden fish", a thing that has been knocked loudly.
Xiyi, who got Luo Wenyu's reassuring information in the morning, almost lost his brain hemorrhage when he heard that Mitsumi Suzuki, a fool, had lost two artillery brigades.
You know, the previous few Chinese carried broadswords and attacked 12 mountain guns and infantry guns, and now with the artillery unit of the 16th mixed brigade, he only has 8 mountain guns in his hands, and if it were not for the support of the 12 heavy guns of the Lushun heavy artillery brigade, the heavy firepower of the 8th Division would have dropped to an extremely dangerous level.
However, after all, Nishi Yoshiichi is the number one big man in the Kwantung Army, although he is extremely angry, he also knows that breaking through the Luo Wenyu defense line is the most important thing at the moment, and no matter how much he wants to make a mistake and talk about Suzuki Mitsu, it will have to wait until after the war. Without thinking, he immediately dispatched four of the only twelve heavy artillery pieces on the Xifengkou front line and rushed to Luowenyu Pass to support.
As for the thousands of Chinese Rao troops besieged in Suzuki Mistsu's report, he didn't pay too much attention to it.
In this person's eyes, if a Chinese infantry division is surrounded can still arouse his interest, but it is only a thousand people, then it is not easy for Suzuki Mitsu to eat them no matter how stupid he is?
Perhaps the commander of the 8th Division, a lieutenant general, would never have imagined that it was such a lone Chinese army, which he thought could be eaten at will, that dealt an extremely fatal blow to the neighboring four infantry brigades, and even the entire right-wing army of the Kwantung Army led by him was almost destroyed.
After being driven back by Mitsu Suzuki, Kasahara River, who had learned from the pain, organized two decisive attacks again.
After the previous temptation and attack, Kasahara Kawa also knew that the infantry artillery was not very useful to the squadron hiding on the back of the mountain, but he still adopted the fighting method of the last time with heavy losses, and the infantry advanced with extended artillery fire.
Only this time, it was even more crazy, when the forward infantry of the army was seventy or eighty meters away from the position, there were at least two infantry guns shelling, and the heavy machine gun squadron, which had basically suffered no losses in the previous battle, was directly forced by the commander to move the crazy army up the mountain, the nearest was less than 300 meters away from the position on the top of the mountain, and it was directly exposed to the range of the grenadiers.
The frenzied whistles of the two observation posts continued to sound in the roar of shells, and the soldiers braved the still exploding artillery fire to rush into the position, and before they could enter the trenches, three people were overturned by the air wave.
The red-eyed army had almost rushed to the front of the position less than 30 meters with bayonets.
At this time, who will save ammunition? Six submachine guns and 40 shell guns emptied almost all the bullets in ten seconds, and the same bullets swept down at least seventy or eighty soldiers.
The army that was beaten again stubbornly wanted to confront the Chinese army, and tried to use the closer heavy machine gun fire to suppress it, and then launched a charge again.
But at this time, two mortars located on Heights 1 finally entered the battle.
They waited for most of the time, just waiting for Liu Lang on the No. 2 high ground to inform them of the army's unscrupulous heavy firepower.
If the heavy machine guns were hiding in some corners of the mountain, the mortars in Position 1 were afraid that they would not be able to hit the area or the angle and waste a lot of shells, but now they have jumped up the hillside, it is not looking for death!
There were 15 shells in total, and the two mortars smashed 10 rounds in one go, leaving only 5 rounds for the most critical moment.
But just these 10 shells made the 8 heavy machine guns of the army's heavy machine gun squadron, which had not been hit and had been a little forgetful, pour blood mold.
