Chapter 72: The Demon Reappears

"Division commander, the teaching corps of the engineering school told us to retreat in an orderly manner, and we couldn't let the Japanese take the opportunity to break into the position."

"Division commander, don't care, if you don't retreat, the Japanese army will press up."

A colonel next to him said anxiously.

Wang Yaowu turned around, picked up the binoculars and looked at the entire battle situation, and immediately calmed down.

"The person who taught the corps is right, the Japanese army must not be allowed to take the opportunity to break into the position of the engineer school, otherwise the Guanghua Gate will completely lose the outer barrier.

Give the order to the 305th regiment, let them break the rear and drag the Japanese army. ”

"Yes!"

The 305th Regiment, which received the order, although it was a little resentful, the regiment commander still organized the troops to build a temporary blocking position to hold back the Japanese army.

The 305th Regiment is the former Shaanxi Security Regiment, and in the 51st Division, it is naturally a little unpopular.

Even after Wang Yaowu ordered the 305th Regiment to be the queen, the Japanese attack was still very fast. The Japanese army following behind the 51st Division was the 6th Brigade of the 9th Division, although the 9th Division suffered a lot of losses in the Battle of Songhu before, but in the later period, thousands of soldiers were replenished, and the 9th Division also recovered a lot of combat effectiveness.

The 51st Division also suffered heavy losses in the Songhu battlefield, but the gap between Chinese and Japanese reserves was too large, even if Wang Yaowu actually had tens of thousands of troops in his hands, but it was not the opponent of the 9th Division.

After holding out in Chunhua for a few days, the Ninth Division was able to break through the position with the help of powerful artillery fire and tank troops. Wang Yaowu, who had no choice, could only order a retreat, otherwise the entire 51st Division might be confessed in Chunhua.

Seeing that only some of the Chinese troops were left to block and the others were retreating rapidly, the new brigade commander of the Japanese Sixth Brigade, Major General Maruyama Masao, ordered the chariot troops to cooperate with the infantry to quickly break through the Chinese army's defense line and crush the Chinese army in front of him.

In less than a quarter of an hour, hundreds of Japanese soldiers advanced to Wang Yaowu's division headquarters under the opening of the chariot.

Wang Yaowu didn't know how the Japanese army knew their location, and when he saw his subordinates in chaos, he immediately shouted, "Brothers, fight me, beat the devil back!" ”

Seeing Wang Yaowu calmly commanding the battle, the soldiers of the division headquarters guard battalion calmed down, followed Wang Yaowu to block the enemy, and covered the retreat of other personnel of the division headquarters who did not have much combat effectiveness.

"Division Commander, quickly retreat!"

"Withdraw what? The 305th regiment has not come down yet, what to withdraw? Block it for me, I won't believe it, hundreds of devils will scare you! Wang Yaowu's stubborn temper also came up at once.

In fact, it was not that Wang Yaowu didn't want to retreat, because of the battle situation at this time, if he retreated, the 51st Division would be in chaos.

On the other hand, if he ventured to stay, he could also inspire the confidence of the soldiers and soldiers, so that the Japanese army would not be left in a no-man's land, and the losses of the 51st Division would be much smaller.

In fact, although the losses in the frontal battlefield are large, they are far less than the losses in the rout. And if you die in a rout, it's also a wretch, it's better to die in battle.

Under the encouragement of Wang Yaowu, the soldiers of the guard battalion and the surrounding 51st Division were also highly motivated for a while, and many people took the initiative to stay to block the enemy and cover the retreat of the 305th Regiment.

And the Japanese army did not expect that the Chinese army, which had already broken and fled, would suddenly burst out with such high combat effectiveness. The number of casualties on both sides rose rapidly for a while, and the Japanese army was no better than the 51st Division, but was blocked by the officers and men of the 51st Division, unable to move forward for half a day.

However, this situation is destined to last short, after all, it is only a temporary organized block, and there is no defense on the flanks.

When Maruyama Masao saw this, he directly ordered a large group of Japanese troops to kill directly from the flank to the position of the 51st Division guard battalion.

Rao is 51st Division is a unit that has experienced the Songhu meat grinder, and in this case, it is also a little uncomfortable to suffer from the enemy on the back of the abdomen.

"Division Commander, retreat!"

"What 。。。。。 to withdraw"

Before Wang Yaowu's words were finished, some devils didn't know when they had rushed into the position.

"The devil has burst in! Protect the division commander! ”

Although there were quite a few submachine guns in the guard battalion, more than 100 Japanese troops broke in, and the position of the guard battalion was in chaos for a while.

This group of Japanese troops was obviously experienced, and as soon as they came in, they were greeted with grenades, and then they cooperated with each other, and many soldiers of the guard battalion fell to the ground.

And after seeing the military uniform on Wang Yaowu's body, these devils were like a group of hungry cats smelling fishy, and their eyes were glowing with fiery brilliance.

"Kill, give!"

The Japanese attack came a little suddenly, and the other surrounding troops did not have time to reinforce, and they were soon rushed to the front by the Japanese army.

Seeing the soldiers of the guard battalion fall to the ground to protect themselves, Wang Yaowu inserted the pistol in the pistol pocket on his waist, picked up the submachine gun on the ground and swept it away at a few devils not far away.

At this time, two devils rushed out next to him, and the adjutant next to Wang Yaowu directly pounced on them and fought with the devil.

And the rest of the devil soldier Cao saw the military uniform on Wang Yaowu's body, and was excited, holding the Japanese knife and cutting it down.

In close combat, Wang Yaowu had nothing else in his hand except for the submachine gun, and it was too late to use the submachine gun at this time. Wang Yaowu, who had no choice, could only hold the charge to block, only to hear a 'bang', the submachine gun and the devil saber collided together, and the sharp devil saber left a deep knife mark on the barrel of the submachine gun.

But this is not over, as soon as the wrist of the devil soldier Cao flipped, the blade was cut horizontally. Wang Yaowu, who had no choice, could only throw the submachine gun, but what he was waiting for was a kick from the devil.

The submachine gun fell to the ground, Wang Yaowu sat on the ground empty-handed, while the Japanese soldier Cao slashed with a hideous face.

"Divisional Commander!"

The soldier next to him shouted anxiously!

And seeing the waving katana, Wang Yaowu couldn't help but close his eyes, could it be that I, Wang Yaowu, died outside this Nanjing city?

However, Wang Yaowu, who closed his eyes, did not wait for the katana, but a few drops of blood. Feeling the hot liquid, he bent down and opened his eyes, only to find that a bullet hole appeared in the forehead of the military cao at some point.

Seeing the devil coming upside down, Wang Yaowu turned to one side, dodged the other party and stood up.

And seeing this dead devil on the ground who can't die anymore, Wang Yaowu also feels very lucky, and he doesn't know who saved him.

A few inaudible gunshots came, and several devils around Wang Yaowu were shot and fell to the ground, and for a while, several adjutants freed their hands and hurriedly surrounded Wang Yaowu.

"Commander, are you okay?"

"It's fine!" Wang Yaowu shook his head.

"Cover the division commander's retreat, quick!" The adjutant hurriedly shouted.

For a while, dozens of soldiers from the guard battalion surrounded them, and the Japanese side seemed to realize something after several machine gunners and officers were shot in the head one after another, and then looked panicked, where could they take care of Wang Yaowu, and they were so frightened that they retreated directly.

"What are they calling?" Wang Yaowu was a little puzzled, when he was not mistaken, it was something that made these devils fearful.

The adjutant next to him, who knew a little Japanese, wondered, "It seems to be a demon... ”

"Demons?"

Wang Yaowu was a little puzzled, but when he retreated, he found that several Nationalist soldiers were shooting with guns in the rubble. If it weren't for his sharp eyes, he might not have found these people, and he was hiding too hidden.

And every time a shot goes down, basically a devil falls, and most of them are shot in the head.

Thinking that the devil in front of him just now was also shot in the head, Wang Yaowu couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that these people saved themselves?" ”
