Chapter 275: Extermination
"Da Da ......" Yu Yang killed a Japanese again, leaving only four Japanese soldiers.
The only Japanese who was on guard with a gun was now panicked, and he didn't know where Yu Yang was, he frantically shouted what Yu Yang didn't understand, and then began to take off his clothes, and finally took out his own bayonet, and then stabbed himself in the abdomen, and then pulled it to the side, spitting blood and slowly falling to the ground.
The Japanese collapsed, and the first person who began to commit suicide appeared, and the other two Japanese also swallowed their saliva after seeing their companions commit suicide, looked around, and didn't know what to do, and were tortured by Yu Yang for two hours, one of the Japanese soldiers carrying a stretcher took out the wing flag from his arms, and then prepared to burn.
After Yu Yang saw this Japanese take out the wing flag, his eyes immediately lit up, he took out his weapon, pulled the trigger on this guy, and killed the guy who was going to burn the wing flag.
The Japanese Wing Flag, which was issued in the form of a supreme decree from the third year of the Meiji era (1870) in the form of a "Proclamation of the Imperial Governor", is called the "Army Imperial Flag", which evolved from the Japanese flag, the Sun Flag, and has 16 blood-red rays of light. The three sides of the army flag are decorated with purple tassels, and the top of the wooden lacquered flagpole has a large gold-plated flag crown with a trihedral body, and the 16-petal chrysanthemum embossed family emblem pattern of the Japanese imperial family is on three sides.
The military flag was given by the Emperor of Japan and was only owned by the formed infantry wing and the cavalry wing, so it is also called the wing flag. According to the regulations of the Japanese Army, the military flag is established, and the military flag is lost to make sanctions, so for the Japanese army, the wing flag is a very important thing, and the best officers in the wing are generally selected as flag guards, and there is a special flag protection squadron to protect this thing.
Throughout World War II, all the Allied forces were unable to capture a wing flag completely, so this thing was the most desired thing for all the allied forces, but according to the Japanese military regulations, when the wing was in danger of annihilation, the flag should be burned, but in World War II, no matter what kind of defeat the Japanese suffered, the flag bearers had enough time to burn the wing flag and commit suicide, so that the Allies have not been able to get what they wanted.
According to records, Japan had a total of 444 military flags in World War II, but almost all of them were burned in the Pacific theater, and some were destroyed with the sinking of troop carriers at sea or in the military flag burning ceremony held after the defeat.
After killing the flag guard, Yu Yang quickly got up and killed the last Japanese, now there is only one Japanese officer lying on a stretcher whose life and death are unknown, Yu Yang thought about it, or decided to kill this guy directly, the distance is a little far, Yu Yang can't tell whether this guy is really unconscious or pretending to be unconscious, and he doesn't want to take this risk.
It took a total of nearly three hours, Yu Yang ate more than 60 Japanese in the jungle alone, walked to the Japanese flag guard, Yu Yang picked up this wing flag and looked at it, this thing was passed down to future generations, but when Yu Yang really held it in his hand, he didn't feel that there was anything great about this thing, and after checking it, he directly wiped the sweat on his forehead with the wing flag and put it in his pocket.
Yu Yang walked to the Japanese officer, took off the saber on his body, and found that this guy was holding a grenade in his hand, fortunately he killed this guy just now, although the Japanese officer was seriously injured, but he planned to die together, he picked up the grenade in his hand and put it in his pocket, and lifted the katana to take a look.
This guy's katana is a little worse than the katana captured before, and you can clearly feel it from the feel of it, but compared to the previous katana, the edge of this knife is a little notched, it should be a weapon that has seen blood, Yu Yang thought about it, or picked it up and prepared to take it back, I don't know if this thing can be exchanged for some war coins.
In addition, Yu Yang also found some grenades on the rest of the Japanese, what Yu Yang is lacking now is grenades, fighting in the jungle, grenades are a very useful thing, not only can you set up mines, but when you encounter some uncertain areas, Yu Yang can also use grenades to open the way.
The rest of the Japanese didn't find too much on them, when they fled for their lives before, these Japanese had already thrown out all their backpacks, and even a Japanese soldier had nothing left of the pants he was wearing except for a weapon and a few bullets, and he didn't wear a coat.
Returning along the same path, Yu Yang didn't know where his current location was, but the sun was already in the west, and after a while, it would be night, and Yu Yang needed to return to where he had parked his car before, which was a good place to camp, at a high place, close to the water source, and far away from the battlefield.
Now Yu Yang's location should be near the seaside, Yu Yang can faintly hear the sound of gunfire coming from the north, but the sound is not very loud, there should be a long distance from Yu Yang.
The Japanese and the Americans are still exchanging fire, and the large-scale positional warfare does not do Yu Yang any benefit, Yu Yang still hopes that the current Kuah Island is like in history, the Japanese fled into the jungle, and the Americans slowly exterminated the Japanese in the jungle.
In the distance on the beach battlefield, the Americans began to retreat, and the Japanese reinforcements came again, this time the Japanese troops who landed were more, about two divisions, close to 40,000 people, and the Japanese who had the advantage in numbers began a large-scale counteroffensive, and the first troops of the Americans to attack had been rotated three times, with heavy casualties.
If the Americans had fought with the Japanese, the Americans would not have retreated so quickly, and what really gave the Americans a headache was the sudden appearance of the Japanese attack troops, which had previously garrisoned Kuah Island, and when they heard the sound of gunfire, they all came out of the jungle and began to spontaneously assemble towards the beach area.
The number of these Japanese is not large, the most is only more than 100 people, but these Japanese will appear in an unexpected area, such as the flank of the Americans, the backs of the Americans, although they were quickly wiped out by the Americans, but they had to let the Americans divide part of their forces to defend them.
The first batch of American landing troops was only more than 10,000 people, and the second group of troops had just entered the airfield area and had not yet had time to enter the battlefield, so the situation of the Americans retreating, and now the Japanese had established a perfect landing beachhead, and reinforcements were coming in a steady stream from the surrounding islands.
