Chapter 292: Retreat (Second Shift)

When the 118th Regiment arrived, the battle in Santang Town had reached its final moment!

Under the roundabout outflanking attack of the devils, the 284th Regiment suffered a lot of casualties, and the number of people was less than a thousand, and what was worse was that there was not much ammunition left!

After several days of fighting, the ammunition of the 284 regiment was depleted quickly, and the Chinese army was already inferior to the Japanese army in terms of ammunition supply.

"Click!"

Huang Hongquan was holding the shell gun and was fighting vigorously, when he suddenly heard the sound of an empty warehouse.

Subconsciously touched the bullet bag on his waist, but found that the bullet bag was already empty and there were no bullets!

"Which of you still has bullets?"

Huang Hong shouted.

"Sir, I only have five rifle bullets!"

"I only have three shots!"

"Sir, I'm out of bullets!"

Seeing the resoluteness and confusion on the faces of the soldiers around him, Huang Hong inserted the shell gun back into his waist, and reached out to pick up a Hanyang-made rifle abandoned by the fallen soldier on the position, pulled the bolt, and then pulled the trigger, but there was a 'click' sound.

Huang Hongquan pulled the bolt of the gun, only to find that the chamber of the gun was also empty.

"Sir, what now? We're running out of bullets! ”

"What should I do?" Huang Hong looked at the Japanese soldiers who had rushed up, and his expression froze, "Brothers, get on the bayonet, fight with the devil." ”

The remnants of the surrounding soldiers all looked miserable when they heard this, but at this time, the devils were coming from all directions.

At this time, it is definitely not possible to retreat, otherwise it will be a live target for the Japanese army.

Since retreating is also death, it is better to die on the battlefield, who wants to be a deserter?

Huang Hong looked at these officers and soldiers, took a deep breath, and shouted, "Brothers, get on the bayonet!"

Soon, the officers and soldiers who heard the order drew their bayonets one after another, stuck them in the card slot, and some people directly took out their broadswords.

Although the Northwest Army of the 95th Division is no longer strong, it is still equipped with a lot of broadswords, which is tradition.

Huang Hong picked up a large knife and got up from the fortifications where he was hiding.

After a while, the remaining remnants of the 284th Regiment also stood up from the rubble.

"Kill, give!"

Seeing that the Chinese army was about to fight with a white knuckle, these Japanese soldiers did not hesitate at all, and rushed over directly with their bayonet guns.

"Brothers, fight with the devil!"

Huang Hong yelled and rushed out, and the rest of the soldiers followed.

The Japanese army did not flinch, and in terms of fighting bayonets, the Japanese army was not afraid, so a white-knuckle battle began.

Although Huang Hong is not good at broadsword, but it is just chopping, plus he has practiced some moves before, and he rushed into the devil's camp with brute force, brandishing the broadsword to slash left and right.

Seeing Huang Hong so dare to fight, the officers and soldiers below were inspired, and they all showed the spirit of not being afraid of death.

Horizontal and vertical are all dead, it is better to pull a Japanese soldier back.

In the back, Nagashima Osa frowned slightly, he didn't expect to start a white-knuckle battle, so that the casualties of his troops would increase.

His troops had been blocked by the Chinese army in front of him for most of the day, and he was also a little impatient with the order from above to capture Xiangyin and march to Changsha as soon as possible.

Nagashima Osa instructed one of the next Shozo, "Honda Shosa, send two squadrons to support the Ikeda Brigade, and be sure to end the battle as soon as possible." ”

"Hey!"

Just as Ikeda was taking the order, before Ikeda's brigade could join the battle, several screams were heard in the air.

"Boom!"

Several shells exploded in the camp of the Japanese army, and the Japanese soldiers, who had not been shelled for a long time, were also startled by these explosions.

This artillery fire certainly did not frighten the Japanese army, but it was somewhat unexpected by the Japanese army.

After the explosion, a large number of Chinese soldiers appeared in the town of Santang and began to attack the Japanese in groups of three.

。。。。。。

"What's going on?"

"What's going on? Why did the devil withdraw? ”

"Needless to say? I must have been scared of our 95th Division and scared away! ”

"You just brag."

Seeing that the devils began to retreat, the remnants of the 284th Regiment were a little confused, this situation came too suddenly, and they couldn't react for a while.

Until there was movement behind him.

Behind them, a large number of friendly troops appeared and attacked the Japanese, only the formation was somewhat scattered.

To be honest, Huang Hong didn't expect reinforcements to arrive.

What surprised him even more was that this support army actually launched an attack on the Japanese army, which is a bit abnormal!

"Brothers, rush, kill the little devil!"

"Xiao Jiangxi, keep the formation, don't rush around!" Seeing that the recruit under his command did not attack according to the three-three system, Wang Ergou scolded loudly.

"Sir, the devil is going to run away, and if you don't hurry up, you won't be able to catch up!" Xiao Jiangxi said.

At this moment, a soldier of the 118th Regiment who rushed to the front was hit by a retreating Japanese soldier crouching down, and a machine gun was also aimed at them, Wang Ergou hurriedly held down Xiaojiangxi.

After the bullet was swept away, Wang Ergou got up and scolded Xiao Jiangxi.

"What are you chasing? Are you really a fool? Don't know what to fight back for? Stay in formation and don't attack! ”

In fact, don't look at the 118th Regiment's side of the offensive is very fierce, but in fact, only one battalion of troops is attacking, which is the advantage of the three-three system.

Moreover, the Japanese army was also shocked by the offensive formation of the Chinese army in front of them, and did not know how to deal with it for a while.

In the past, the Chinese army's attacks were mostly swarmed and unformed.

But in front of them was very scattered, although the cooperation was not very good, but it gave the Japanese army a feeling of hitting the cotton.

Perhaps inspired by the offensive momentum of the 118th Regiment, the officers and men of the 284th Regiment also rushed forward one after another, taking the opportunity to leave some Japanese troops behind.

And after seeing the Japanese retreat, Huang Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, a colonel came to him, and Huang Hong came over, "Dare to ask which unit my brother is from?" I am the deputy commander of the 284th Regiment of the 95th Division, Huang Hong, a fifth-term student of Huangpu. ”

Chen Wei saluted, "Deputy Commander Huang, colonel of the 118th Regiment of the 40th Division, and a student of the sixth phase of Huangpu." ”

"40 divisions? 54th Army? ”

Hearing that it was the 40th Division, Huang Hong had some impressions, but he didn't know much about this unit.

Of course, he didn't know the news of the transfer of the 54th Army to Changsha, after all, he had been on the front line, and one of his deputy regiment commanders didn't know about the military transfer above.

"How many Japanese troops are there in front of you?" Chen Wei was not interested in answering Huang Hong's question, he was more concerned about the positive Japanese army.

"It should be the size of two brigades, and they also carry heavy weapons, so they are not easy to fight!" Huang Hong said.

"Two brigades?" Chen Wei frowned, he thought there was only one brigade, but he didn't expect it to be doubled, "Deputy Regiment Commander Huang will reorganize your troops, and we will discuss the follow-up combat matters." ”

After a while, the Japanese side was the first to break out of the battle, mainly because they were also caught off guard by the reinforcements of the Chinese army, and wanted to regroup and launch a new attack.

Just when Chen Wei was preparing for the devil's attack, the order from the division headquarters came, telling him to retreat!
