Chapter 185: Borrowing a knife to kill

Taking off his blood-stained military uniform, tying a strip of white cloth three fingers wide and narrow with a red sun mark in the middle to his head, the adjutant who was beaten by Yukikukutaro with a blue nose and swollen face held a command knife with silver cherry blossom decoration on the handle of the knife that far exceeded the standard equipment in one hand, and a southern-style pistol with loaded bullets in the other, and stood at the forefront of the Japanese army's departure preparation position with a blue face.

And next to the adjutant with a blue face, the Japanese lieutenant, who also took off his upper military uniform and tied a strip of cloth with the words 'Victory' written on his head, stuck the spare magazine of a southern-style pistol on his belt, and whispered to the adjutant with a blue nose and swollen face: "Your Excellency, please protect yourself!" Losing one's life in such a worthless battle is a senseless death! Even if there is great anger, please think of His Excellency Ape Bingwei who is far away in the Baoding Garrison Headquarters! ”

Nodding expressionlessly, the adjutant with a blue nose and swollen face replied in a low voice: "Thank you very much!" During these days in Gongnan County, thank you for your care! If I can survive this battle, in front of my uncle Sarutaro, I will definitely solemnly mention your care for me! ”

Turning his head slightly, he looked at Yukikuin Taro, who was sitting on the horse again, and the old god was holding a telescope on the ground to observe the position of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese lieutenant who was sent by Yukikuin Taro to participate in the sixth assault because of his mouth, carefully lowered his voice: "When launching an attack, please don't be too heroic!" Half of the attacking troops sent this time were Goryeo who were fortunate enough to join the Imperial Army. The commander of these Koreans is the subordinate who has been under for many years, and will let these Koreans rush to the front! ”

A look of disgust suddenly flashed in his eyes, and the adjutant with a blue nose and swollen face couldn't help but snort coldly: "Why couldn't you let these Koreans go into battle earlier?" Must the honor of seizing the enemy's position be given to these dirty Koreans? ”

opened his mouth, but the Japanese lieutenant standing next to the adjutant didn't say a word......

Originally, I thought that the defensive position of the Eighth Route Army would be down with a drum, but a group of Japanese soldiers who were almost armed to the teeth gnawed for a full day, and after the veterans of the division were tired, they could only sigh and cry out in vain. I knew that I would have to face such a hard bone, I'm afraid that Yukikuin Taro had already sent those Korean soldiers to the battlefield during the first attack?

Taking a deep breath of cold air, he checked again that the southern pistol in his hand was loaded, and the magazine seemed to be stuck tightly on the magazine jam (the design of the Japanese southern pistol had major flaws, and the magazine often slipped due to the jam of the magazine). In addition, the firing pin is easy to break, the bullet is easy to jam, easy to misfire, etc., and is called a pistol by American soldiers as "even suicide does not guarantee success". The adjutant with a blue nose and swollen face waved his pistol sharply: "Assault!" ”

As soon as the shout fell, the southern-style pistol in the adjutant's hand went off the fire, and even the magazine was shaken out of the jam and fell neatly on the snow.

Coldly watching the adjutant with a blue nose and swollen face hurriedly pick up the dropped magazine and re-stuff it into the handle of the pistol, Yukikuin Taro, who was sitting on the horse and observing the battlefield, couldn't help but sneer and shouted: "It's really a guy who can't be used for anything, no wonder he can only be a staff officer.......

As soon as the words fell, some of the junior officers of the Japanese army who were standing behind Yukikuin Taro suddenly burst out laughing unabashedly. Even a few veterans of the Japanese army who were conscripted for the second time laughed unabashedly and said: "The guy who only fights imaginary enemies on imaginary maps is really ridiculous when he faces a real battle......

"It can't be a pee for your pants, right? After giving the order to assault, didn't the commander in front of the formation take the lead? Standing still so stupidly, did he want to disobey the order of the superior and cancel the attack without authorization? ”

"It's getting dark...... Regardless of whether you can capture the opposite position or not, after dark, many things will not be seen again! I've heard of some guys fleeing the battlefield when it's dark......"

Gritting his teeth fiercely, the adjutant of the foreign prime minister roared almost like a wolf howl in front of everyone, raised the command knife in his hand and rushed towards the direction of the Eighth Route Army's position: "Assault!" Assault to the death! ”

Sighing helplessly, the Japanese lieutenant who was stuffed into the attack camp because of his mouthfulness could only raise the Japanese command knife in his hand and pointed to the silent Eighth Route Army position: "Warriors of the empire, show your bravery!" Assault! ”

Amid the roaring roar, hundreds of Japanese soldiers of Korean origin, who were also wearing only white shirts and a strip of cloth tied to their heads, had just stepped out of the pre-departure preparation position, and had already begun to attack at full speed.

And behind these Japanese soldiers who launched a full-speed attack at the beginning, some Japanese veterans who looked slightly older and had a bit of clarity in their eyes also silently joined the ranks of the assault.

Unlike those Goryeo Japanese soldiers who had all their strength to launch an attack, these Japanese veterans who always had a bit of clarity in their eyes did not run fast when they first joined the assault ranks, and even had some procrastination and hesitation. But after rushing within 200 meters of the trenches of the Eighth Route Army, those Japanese veterans began to gradually increase their pace, and even when there were no gunshots, they seemed to instinctively dodge some areas where machine guns might appear to block the shooting.......

Perhaps it was because of the fierce fighting that barely stopped all day had exhausted the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army guarding the trenches, and even the vigilance of the observation posts sent out had decreased a lot, until the dozens of Japanese soldiers who rushed to the front hit the trenches only forty or fifty meters away, and in the trenches, which had always maintained quiet, a series of short brass horn tones suddenly sounded, as if urging those tired soldiers of the Eighth Route Army to cheer up again to deal with the enemy who was about to crash into the trenches!

Almost weakly, several horsetail grenades were thrown out of the trenches, staggering and exploding in mid-air in clouds of gunsmoke, but they did not seriously kill or injure several Japanese soldiers who rushed ahead. But a neat platoon of guns followed, but it was a dozen Korean Japanese soldiers who rushed to the front to lie down.

Subconsciously made a dodge movement, and the Korean Japanese soldiers who rushed to the front almost at the same time fell behind the cover around him. On the contrary, those veterans of the Japanese army who were running procrastination and grinding everywhere, after the first burst of guns, suddenly accelerated the speed of the impact, and one by one roared and scolded in the direction of the position of the Eighth Route Army: "Don't hesitate, rush over!" ”

"Are you lying here waiting to die?!"

"Damn Koreans, they're bastards!"

Amidst the shouting and scolding, the Japanese soldiers of Goryeo nationality who had originally wanted to lie down on the spot also jumped up as if they had just woken up from a dream, and rushed in the direction of the trench guarded by the Eighth Route Army regardless of it. A few Japanese soldiers of Korean origin rushed into the front of the trench within a distance of 50 meters, and even felt the grenade hanging from their waists, knocked the fuse on the butt of the gun, and threw it straight in the direction of the trench.

In the sound of grenade explosions one after another, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army guarding the trench did not seem to be moved at all, but just took care of themselves, firing neatly platoon guns one after another, knocking down those Japanese soldiers of Korean origin who were howling and rushing to the ground only twenty or thirty meters away from the trench. In the second fortifications further back, several machine gun positions that had just been repaired also began to sound intermittently with the sound of long bursting shots from machine guns.

Without artillery support, not even machine gun shooters to follow up and suppress enemy fire, more than 100 Japanese soldiers of Korean nationality who rushed to the front were almost knocked over by the unhurried platoon guns fired from the trenches in a short period of time. The Japanese lieutenant who suddenly jumped over, and finally rushed to the adjutant's side on the battlefield, pressed the adjutant who had been hung on his body to the ground, and wheezed and yelled in the ear of the adjutant, who was already red-eyed: "I can't rush up again!" There is no artillery cover, not even the machine gunners who follow up, Yukikuin Taro is what we are going to do! Those Koreans are our burial objects! Yukikura Taro....... He wants to borrow the hand of that man to kill us! ”

also gasping for breath, the adjutant shook his head vigorously: "If you don't rush forward, you will be ordered to cut your stomach when you go back!" As a descendant of a samurai family, even if an indishonored dog dies, he must die under the enemy's sword! Please take care, Your Excellency! ”

Seeing that the adjutant was about to get up and continue to attack, the Japanese lieutenant who slapped the adjutant suddenly increased his strength and pressed the adjutant who was bent on death to the ground: "Even if you want to die bravely and unyieldingly, you must think carefully when you should use strategy!" It's already darkening, so we'll just have to wait, wait! ”

"What are you waiting for? Can we still wait for Yukikushitaro to mercifully give us artillery support?! ”

"Wait until it's dark! After dark, concentrate your forces and assault a little, use a large number of grenades to open the way, and rush to the trenches of the Shina people to start a white-knuckle battle! Your Excellency, we have rushed to a position less than fifty meters in front of the trenches of the Chinese people! As long as those Koreans are summoned to dig individual bunkers on the spot, plus the subsequent veterans who have been fighting for many years...... Your Excellency, we have a chance to succeed! ”

Lying on the cold snow and turning his head to look around at the surrounding situation, the adjutant who was filled with anger finally slowly regained some consciousness and nodded very sadly: "Your Excellency, please also order those Korean soldiers to dig individual bunkers on the spot, right?" We...... We only have one chance! ”
