Chapter 435: The Pontoon Bridge
Thinking of this, Okazaki stood up with a gloomy face.
"Kuramoto-kun, please feel free to wade across the river, but as a graduate of the Army University, I won't swim across the river like a wild duck! …… Hum. ”
After the words were closed, the angry Okazaki called Squadron Leader Misawa loudly and told him to immediately organize the team, and then follow him out of here within five minutes to seize the pontoon bridge on the Nishikogawa.
……
In just a few minutes, as hundreds of Japanese puppet soldiers were assembled in the dark, Kuramoto looked at the little light reflected from those helmets not far away, and shook his head helplessly.
As a junior officer, he knew that he could not and could not organize Okazaki's personal actions.
However, although he could not stop Okazaki's strong attack on the pontoon, Kuramoto would not be easily commanded by the other party.
As a newly formed special force of the division, he will only obey the orders of the wing commander or the division commander at present. As for the little Shaozo on the other side, Kuramoto didn't pay attention to it at all.
Moreover, as the first commander of the advance team, he knew very well that what his troops were best at was conducting infiltration and assault operations. Therefore, he basically didn't think about such a thing as storming the pontoon bridge.
……
"Kuramoto-kun, I see that Okazaki Shaozo seems to be very angry, or me
We're going to help out too? ”
Finding that the Japanese army and the puppet army were rapidly assembling, Nie Yunshan, who had been hiding aside to rest, quietly walked to Kuramoto's side and asked in a low voice.
Hearing this, Kuramoto snorted coldly, and Kuramoto waved his hand lightly, with a look of disdain.
"No need, we don't have the same way we fight with them, so let's let Okazaki Shaozo play by himself....... Nie San, you go and gather the team as well, and when Okazaki and the others capture the ferry, we will take the opportunity to cross the river together. ”
"Huh? …… Kuramoto-kun, aren't you going to wade across the river from a shallow place? ”
Hearing that the other party was actually going to cross the bridge, Nie Yunshan was suddenly a little puzzled, could it be that this Japanese stunned person also learned to be flexible?
"Hmph...... Nie Sang, do you think there is any point in being tossed by Okazaki like this, and we cross the river secretly? ”
Hearing this, Nie Yunshan was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what Kuramoto meant.
Indeed, by the time Okazaki's assault began, the tossing and turning movement was enough to alarm everyone within a radius of several kilometers. At that point, there will be no point in wading across the river on your own.
……
At 8:33 p.m., the temporary headquarters of a column in Nanyang Village.
After reading the telegram from the independent detachment that had just been sent, Xue Liqun picked up the oil lamp on the table, got up and went to the map on the wall to look at it for a while.
"Shijian Village...... Isn't that less than thirty miles from here? ”
It turned out that the telegram from the independent detachment that had just been sent on time showed that they had arrived at Shijian Village in the northwest of the base area after dark, and it was less than 30 miles away from Nanyang Village.
"Chief of Staff Xue, the independent detachment is not far from here, do you want them to come over overnight?"
Seeing Xue Liqun stunned for a while on the edge of the map, a young staff officer asked in a low voice.
Hearing this, Xue Liqun was stunned, and a ...... of the Chinese character suddenly appeared in Xue Liqun's mind that made him a little disgusted.
"Uh...... You don't have to come overnight. Inform them that they should arrive at the column station by 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. ”
"Yes, I'll let the telecommunications department get back to them."
……
After the staff officer left, Xue Liqun limped to the bedroom next to the conference room, drank some water, and then lay on the bed with difficulty.
Under the old wound has not healed, he has felt a deep tiredness after being busy for half a day.
Closing his eyes gently, he wanted to take a nap.
……
Rumble...... Rumble......
Da Da Da ......
……
"Ah......h
Suddenly, Xue Liqun, who woke up, sat up suddenly. And because the action was too intense, his painful face distorted in an instant when he pulled the wound on his leg.
"What's wrong with me, I'm dreaming again......
It may be that he got up too quickly, Xue Liqun not only had his ears buzzing at this moment, but even his head was dizzy.
Boom......
At this moment, as the door of the conference room was slammed open from the outside, a staff officer on duty rushed in in a panic.
"Chief of Staff, something happened to the Chief of Staff......
"Ah......? What's wrong? ”
"Didn't you hear, there's a fight on the pontoon!"
"...... pontoon?"
……
Hearing the words pontoon, Xue Liqun suddenly woke up from the trance just now. The next moment, the sound of gunfire and dense explosions outside immediately reached his ears.
"What's going on, what's going on on the pontoon, who's attacking us?"
"It's not clear yet, but it should be a devil listening to the gunshots."
And just as the two were still talking, there was a sudden chaotic sound of footsteps outside the courtyard.
A few seconds later, three guards ran into the conference room with a panting warrior.
As soon as he saw Xue Liqun, who was in doubt, the soldier who was like a wash of water immediately shouted out of breath:
"Chief of Staff, the devil sneaked up on the pontoon bridge, our deputy battalion commander asked you to quickly organize everyone to retreat to the mountain, it will be too late!"
"What ......! You repeat? ”
"Chief of Staff, the devil attacked the Xixiaohe pontoon bridge, and he is about to be killed."
Hearing this, Xue Liqun's mouth opened wider and wider, and a strange sound came out of his throat.
"This ...... Where did this fucking little devil come from? Where did it come from? ”
Pulling the soldiers who came to report the news, Xue Liqun asked almost roaring.
"I ...... We don't know. The telephone line on the other side of the monolith mouth was cut, and we were attacked by devils as soon as we found out. ”
"Malfeasance...... Thank you, dog, this is dereliction of duty! You guys...... What do you all eat? ”
……
Seeing that Xue Liqun was pulling the messenger to ask endless questions, the staff officer and the guard on the side hurriedly separated the two, and then looked at Xue Liqun and persuaded bitterly:
"Chief of Staff, now is not the time to hold accountable, I think it is better to quickly organize the comrades and villagers to withdraw into the mountains.
Listen, the pontoon bridge is now a pot of porridge, and I'm afraid there are quite a few devils attacking. ”
was persuaded by the people around him, and the anger in Xue Liqun's heart was only slightly smaller. Reason returned, and he knew that he couldn't delay.
The guard company immediately drew out 20 people and went door to door to inform the villagers to quickly retreat west into the mountain. Tell everyone, the devil is about to come in, now it's important to save your life, don't take anything or anything!
Also, notify all organs of the column to pack up and evacuate immediately. ”
After closing the conversation, he looked at the soldiers of the special service battalion who were drinking water, and said sternly:
"You immediately rush back to the pontoon bridge, tell your deputy battalion commander Xie Gouzi, and ask him to block the devil for me for two hours no matter what. Remember, even if you have one soldier left, you have to give me two hours to withstand the devil! ”
"Yes......."
Hearing this, the soldier who reported the news gave a military salute with a resolute face, and then rushed out without looking back.
Seeing that the soldiers of the special service battalion left, the staff officers present showed a look of unbearability. After hesitating for a moment, he walked to Xue Liqun, who had already begun to pack his things, and said with a pleading face:
"Chief of Staff, Xie Gouzi only has half a company of people in his hands, or we should send some people over to him."
Hearing this, his face sank, Xue Liqun stopped what he was doing, stared at the other party and said in a cold tone.
"Send someone? When Yang Chenghu left this afternoon, he took all the soldiers of the two companies with him, and now where do you ask me to find someone for you? You ......"
Halfway through the words, Xue Liqun may have vaguely realized something, and swallowed back the second half of the sentence that came to his mouth.
……
"I know this, but if you listen to the gunfire from the east, the number of devils attacking is definitely ....... If they can't stand it, we won't even have time to retreat. ”
Hearing this, the angry Xue Liqun also turned pale.
Although what his subordinates said was straightforward, they got to the point of the problem. You must know that although he gave a death order, if there were not enough people to defend it, then even if he gave a hundred death orders, it would be in vain.
Thinking of this, Xue Liqun immediately looked up at the staff officer and said:
"So be it...... Didn't they just come back from the pontoon bridge before dark, and let them go back immediately now to increase the number of Xie Gouzi. As for the rest, all of them will start the evacuation operation within half an hour! ”
……
……
Outside Nanyang Village, a pontoon bridge located on the Xixiao River.
At this moment, with the addition of the devil's heavy machine gun, tracer bullets slid out streamers in the sky, constantly flying from the darkness to the west bank of the river.
Under heavy grenadier bombardment, the bridgehead on the east bank of the pontoon bridge fell after holding out for less than twenty minutes.
Braving the dense rain of bullets like locusts, Xie Gouzi escaped across the pontoon bridge with the only remaining ** soldiers in the second platoon and withdrew to the position of the first platoon.
As soon as he jumped into the trench, Xie Gouzi didn't care that the wound on his forehead was still bleeding, and he took the crooked handle handed over by a soldier and pulled the trigger towards the opposite bank.
Da Da Da ...... Da Da Da ......
In the flickering firelight, more than a dozen Japanese puppet soldiers who followed their side and rushed onto the pontoon bridge were immediately swept over by five or six and fell into the turbulent river.
