Chapter 279 - Counting is Counting

In the early morning of the next day, the Chichai United launched another attack on the county seat of Tengxian County.

This time, the main direction of attack of the Chichai United team is still the Dongguan Wall.

As is customary, the devils first wash the ground with heavy artillery, and then charge with infantry.

Although the devil's attack caused huge casualties to 242, the Chichai United team was defeated again.

The losses of the little devils this time were even greater than the losses of the previous attacks, and the commander of the first brigade was also seriously injured by stray bullets in the battle.

The entire First Brigade was completely disabled.

With a gloomy face, Chishiba Yaezo shouted and scolded: "Yaga! Eight Ga Ya Road! How so? Is the Sichuan army really so tenacious? ”

The chief of staff on the side shouted: "Your Excellency, the Sichuan army occupies the city defense, and their will to fight is not inferior to the bushido spirit of our Imperial Japanese Army.

With a slight groan, Chichai Yaezo shouted, "Chief of Staff, otherwise we will attack from the other city gates!" From now on, adjust the direction of the main attack and put the main direction of attack at the west gate! ”

After a slight sigh, the chief of staff shouted in a deep voice: "Attacking Ximen, I'm afraid that the result will be the same, and we will still lose our troops at that time!"

Raising his eyebrows, Chichai Yaezo raised his voice and shouted: "What does the chief of staff mean......"

The chief of staff shouted: "I suggest that Your Excellency the Wing Commander approve the use of poison gas bombs, don't forget that the main task of our 10th Wing is to take Taierzhuang directly and open the north gate of Xuzhou, and you must not have too many soldiers and horses in Teng County!"

Pacing with his hands behind his back, Chishiba Yaezo shouted: "Chief of Staff, this weapon is used in battle, even if we win, it will be dishonorable!" I still don't agree with the use of gas bombs! ”

As soon as the words fell, a communications soldier hurriedly ran in.

He gave a military salute to Chichai Yaezo, and the signal soldier shouted: "Report to Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the First Brigade Leader, who is too seriously injured and has been rescued ineffectively, and is now loyal to the Emperor!"

His face suddenly sank, and Chichai Yaezo exclaimed in surprise: "What? The first captain failed to rescue him! ”

Towards Chichai Yaezo, the communication soldier shouted, "Haiyi! The first captain of the first brigade was broken by a bullet in his heart, and it was really incurable! ”

Hearing this, Chichai Yaezo's face became more and more gloomy.

The 1st Brigade is the number one main force of the Chichai Wing, and after coming to the Chinese battlefield, the 1st Brigade has always been used as a pioneer by Chichai Yaezo.

And every time the city was attacked, the first brigade never disappointed Akashiba Yaezo.

Nine wins out of ten battles is a common occurrence.

The troops can fight, and the first captain is naturally valued and loved by Chichai Yaezo!

Therefore, under the careful cultivation of Chichai Yaezo, the first captain made great achievements.

Chichai Yaezo originally planned to capture Xuzhou, and after he was promoted to the brigade commander, he would hand over the banner of the 10th Wing to the first captain!

But now, Chichai Yaezo's love general was shattered in the siege battle!

This is really a thing that makes Chishiba Yaezo heartbroken.

Seeing Chichai Yaezo's grief-stricken look, the chief of staff shouted: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, until now, we can only use the blood of the Shina Army to pay tribute to the imperial warriors of the First Brigade!"

After a pause, the chief of staff strongly suggested: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, let's send a telegram to the division headquarters requesting the use of poison gas bombs!"

Gritting his teeth fiercely, Chichai Yaezo shouted, "Okay! Approve the use of gas bombs! But the main direction of attack is still the Dongguan City Wall, and I must poison the Zhina army of the Dongguan City Wall to death! ”

The two heels suddenly joined together, and the chief of staff shouted in a low voice, "Haiy!"

……

Dongguan City Wall.

After the 242nd Regiment took over the position of the 741st Regiment, it fought a tough battle with the little devils.

Of course, the 242nd regiment won this tough battle.

However, the 242nd Regiment itself also suffered heavy losses, and the three infantry battalions were reduced by more than a third, and one of the infantry battalions was directly beaten into an infantry platoon by the devils.

Rao is so, the 242nd Regiment is still stubbornly defending the Dongguan City Wall and defending the Dongguan City Wall.

At this time, the rest of the 242nd Regiment was rescuing the wounded and repairing the fortifications under the leadership of the regiment commander.

Helping to carry an officer who looked like a battalion commander onto a stretcher, the commander of the 242nd regiment shouted: "Old Lu, take care of your injuries!" Come back and keep the little devils! ”

Nodding his head at the regiment commander with difficulty, Battalion Commander Lu shouted, "Regiment seat! Don't worry, the little devil hasn't been killed yet, and I won't die! ”

The regiment commander signaled to send Battalion Commander Lu down the Dongguan city wall.

Subsequently, the commander of the 242nd Regiment personally urged the soldiers of the Sichuan Army to repair the fortifications.

Before the fortifications were repaired, there was a sudden shrill whistling sound in the sky.

Based on many years of combat experience, the commander of the 242nd regiment could judge that this was the sound of a little devil mortar.

The next moment, the commander of the 242nd Regiment opened his voice and shouted: "The little devil has fired, all the soldiers, pay attention to concealment, quickly!" ”

Hearing this, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army who were repairing the fortifications put down their sandbags one after another and looked for cover to avoid the cannon on the spot.

In just a few tens of seconds, mortar shells were already smashing down on the Dongguan position.

But something incredible happened!

When the shell touched the ground, it did not explode as usual, and then shrapnel flew everywhere.

The commander of the 242nd Regiment thought that this batch of mortar shells was very strange.

The shells were snorting with yellow-green gas.

Almost at the same time, the commander of the 242 regiment heard a burst of coughing.

In the sound of coughing one after another, the commander of the 242nd regiment finally understood!

Big things are not good, this is a gas bomb, a gas bomb for little devils.

He quickly took out a gas mask from behind his waist, and the commander of the 242nd regiment raised his voice and shouted: "The little devil has released poison gas, all pay attention, guard against poison gas!" ”

Hearing this, the soldiers of the Sichuan army took precautions against poison gas.

However, there were still more than 600 people in the entire regiment, and the existing gas masks were only enough for half of the soldiers.

Wearing a gas mask, the commander of the second battalion shouted in a muffled voice: "Regimental seat! Some of our brothers don't have gas masks, what can we do? ”

With a slight groan, the commander of the 242nd regiment shouted: "If you don't have a gas mask, wet the towel with urine!" ”

Agreed, and the commander of the second battalion instructed the soldiers who did not have gas masks to use the local method to prevent poison.

Just when the soldiers of the 242nd Regiment were caught in the predicament of poison gas bombs, the three squadrons of the Chichai Wing once again slaughtered the 242nd Regiment.

The little devils of the three squadrons all wore uniformly colored gas masks and moved freely.

Based on the knowledge of the equipment of the Sichuan army, the devil commander concluded that the soldiers of the Sichuan army had been smoked with poison gas.

The Sichuan army of the Dongguan city wall is waiting for them to harvest the heads.

The devil's attack was very fast, and he just wanted to quickly occupy the Dongguan city wall.

However, the arrogance of the devil created an opportunity for the Sichuan army of the 242nd regiment.

Looking at the little devil 300 meters away with a cold eye, the commander of the 242nd regiment shouted: "Second battalion commander, second battalion commander!" ”

Hearing the call of the regiment commander, the second battalion commander Fei also came over: "Regiment seat! How to fight! ”

The commander of the 242nd regiment shouted: "The devil will think that we are all stunned by the poisonous gas, we just plan to do it, I order all the tricks to death, and when the little devil enters a distance of 50 meters, we will suddenly open fire!" ”

The commander of the second battalion shouted: "Yes!"
