Chapter 60: Changing Guards
As for the soldiers of the Ishihara Tachii Brigade, after the shelling, they launched a Banzai charge on Heian Street.
Shirtless and with rifles in hand, these men began to rush towards Ping'an Street under the cover of machine-gun fire.
At this time, they no longer talked about any battle formations, and they didn't care about what squads covered each other, they just charged forward frantically, shouting "Onboard!!" ”
The soldiers of the third battalion who came out of the air-raid shelter looked at the frantic charging method of the Japanese army, and some of the recruits had a feeling of fear in their hearts.
But Qin Chuan and many veterans couldn't help but laugh.
Because although this way of charging is very deterrent and the visual effect is also very good, under the full machine gun fire, there is no difference from sending to death.
And Matsui Ishine let these people choose this way to charge, not to let them take back the block, but to vent the anger in their hearts while killing chickens and monkeys.
The rest of the Japanese troops were watching, and the suicidal charge of the Ishihara Brigade at this time was the end of the retreat. And the captured Sakanishi Jira, although he was Matsui Ishone's nephew, was also directly killed by heavy artillery.
This made all the Japanese troops understand a truth, there was no retreat in this battle, there were no options of being captured, some just died on the position, or died on the way to charge, or tore the enemy to pieces, so that they no longer had the power to fight back.
The gunfire echoed in front of Ping'an Street, and more than 500 soldiers of the Ishihara Brigade fell in a pool of blood under the dense firepower.
But the soldiers in front fell, and the soldiers in the rear still charged forward frantically.
But they are all flesh and blood, and the spirit of bushido can make them crazy and give them a terrible will to fight, but it can't make them have the incorruptible body of Vajra.
Bullets hit their bodies, still shredding their flesh and tearing their hearts, piercing their brains.
It was a one-sided massacre, and the Japanese soldiers, after paying heavy casualties, rushed into Ping'an Street, but they were also incapacitated.
In the street fighting, the remaining 200 remnants of the Japanese army, after struggling for two hours, were completely wiped out by the soldiers of the third battalion.
Although the entire Ishihara brigade was annihilated, Qin Chuan's three battalions also paid some price. Nearly thirty people died in this battle under the bayonets and guns of the frenzied Japanese army.
But even so, his troops played a terrible exchange ratio. Sacrificing 30 people and annihilating more than 500 Japanese troops who were crazy about sending heads, it was almost a 20 to 1 exchange ratio, which was unimaginable for the previous national army.
The soldiers of the third battalion spent nearly an afternoon just cleaning up the corpses of the Japanese soldiers, and the captured rifles and machine guns were piled up in a room.
Such a great feat, but it is more shocking than simply killing a Japanese lieutenant. For the Kuomintang in a difficult war situation at that time, the performance of Qin Chuan and his three battalion soldiers was undoubtedly inspiring and needed to be hyped up.
After the battle against the Japanese Ishihara brigade, Feng Cai took the remaining dozens of reinforcements to the neighborhood where they were in Qinchuan.
Seeing those supplementary soldiers, Qin Chuan was a little surprised. Because he originally thought that the little troops replenished by the brigade headquarters would be given priority to Sun Changhui by the division seat.
"The brigade seat is under the pressure of the division seat, and these reinforcements are squeezed out of the teeth. You killed the Ishihara Brigade, and the next time the little devils will focus on attacking the area, Bacheng will be the block where your three battalions are stationed. Feng Cai said to Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan nodded and said: "I'm already mentally prepared for this, I killed all Matsui Shigen's nephews, how could Matsui Shigen let me go so easily?" ”
Feng Cai said: "Battalion Commander Qin, you don't have to worry, although the division seat is a little biased towards Sun Changhui, he knows that you can fight, and he won't embarrass you too much." The brigade will always support you, your three battalions are open to fighting, whether you need to replenish soldiers or supplies, our 262 brigade will give priority to supply. ”
Hearing Feng Cai's words, Qin Chuan also had confidence in his heart.
After all, weapons and ammunition, and even medicines for the treatment of wounded soldiers, he was able to buy them through the system. But he had no way to replenish the lost soldiers, so he could only rely on the logistics troops in the rear.
After sending Feng Cai away, Qin Chuan counted the soldiers who had been replenished, adding up to a total of forty-five people, which was not too much, but it could also make up for the loss of some fighting personnel.
After giving a brief lecture to these new recruits, Qin Chuan assigned them to various companies.
After assigning these supplementary troops, the sixth son hurriedly ran over to Qin Chuan and said, "Yingzuo, something happened, something happened." ”
"Something's wrong? What's the matter? Qin Chuan asked.
Liuzi said: "It's a direct order from the division's seat, so that our troops will immediately change guards with the second battalion!" ”
"What? Changing guards with the second battalion? As for Sun Changhui's waste, let him garrison Ping'an Street, isn't that handing over Ping'an Street to others? Qin Chuan roared angrily.
Liuzi said: "No, what the master means, it's just to change the guard this night, and wait until tomorrow morning, and then change the guard back." ”
Hearing this, Qin Chuan frowned, and said in his heart, what does this mean by Shizuo? Are you afraid that Sun Changhui will lose the last block and let yourself go over to take the blame?
"Master, what should we do now?" Liuzi asked.
Qin Chuan glanced at Ping'an Street behind him, knowing that his strength at this time was not enough to disobey Sun Yuanliang's order. Although they can protect themselves, their strength is still too weak compared to these high-level officials.
"Then change the guard! Lao Tzu's troops can fight, and see how Lao Tzu can recapture the two blocks lost by that kid Sun Changhui. Qin Chuan said this, and gave the order to change the troops.
Sun Changhui's troops were not fighting well, but the speed at which they came to change their positions was very fast.
In a short time, all his troops had arrived at Ping'an Street. Qin Chuan's troops also entered the Changde Street neighborhood he defended one after another.
In the transitional area of the two-person block, Sun Changhui and Qin Chuan took a face-to-face meeting.
Qin Chuan was not interested in talking to him, but Sun Changhui took the initiative to come over and greet Qin Chuan.
"Camp Commander Qin, thank you so much! Hahaha! Sun Changhui said this to Qin Chuan, with an arrogant smile on his face.
