In the field hospital of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, many wounded soldiers were wailing, including many wounded soldiers who were smoked and burned by white phosphorus bombs.

The captain of the Takeda Wing is also one of them.

Looking at the gauze bandaged on the face of the Captain of Takeda, the head of the division Gu Shoufu condoled: "Takeda-kun, how do you feel today?"

Seeing that the division commander Gu Shoufu personally inquired about the injury, Captain Takeda couldn't help but cry gratefully: "Your Excellency the division commander, I am guilty, I can't stand you!"

Taking away the katana in the hands of the Takeda Wing Commander, the commander of the Tani Shou Fu Division shouted loudly: "You can't die without my order!" It's no wonder you, if you want to blame it, it's the Chinese army that is too cunning to use chemical weapons? Takeda-kun, you're a top chemistry student in the Empire, do you know what this weapon is? ”

After thinking for a moment, Captain Takeda said, "Your Excellency Division Commander, according to my judgment, it is very likely that the Chinese Army used something called white phosphorus as a chemical weapon?"

His eyes were stunned, and the head of Gu Shoufu's division asked, "What is white phosphorus?" This kind of thing is so powerful? So many soldiers were burned, and some of them had difficulty breathing. ”

The wound on his face ached slightly, and the captain of the Takeda Wing said, "Your Excellency, the division commander, have you ever seen a ghost fire in the countryside!"

Nodding, the head of Gu Shoufu's division responded: "When I was a child in the countryside, I could often see this kind of thing in the cemetery in the distance!" Takeda-kun, you mean ......"

Before the words fell, the Takeda Wing Captain echoed: "That's it!" If it burns, it basically can't be extinguished, and it sticks to the skin, so you can only cut off the piece of meat in pain! The Chinese army also doesn't know where to get this weapon, white phosphorus is a chemical, if there is no high level of scientific research, it is impossible for the Chinese industry to produce it on a large scale, let alone use it on the battlefield! ”

After a little hesitation, the head of Gu Shoufu's division said: "It's too late to investigate now, the top priority is to find out a specific way to deal with this weapon, I don't know what countermeasures Takeda-kun has?"

Captain Takeda said, "The ignition point of the white phosphorus bomb is too low, and once it attaches to clothes and skin, it can burn violently!" You can see how powerful it is by looking at my face! At present, there is no solution to this weapon! When encountering this kind of weapon, although the gas mask can dodge the toxic smoke, once it is contaminated with white phosphorus, it is basically immortal and crippled! ”

With a gasp, His Excellency the division commander shouted coldly: "Is there really no solution?"

Captain Takeda nodded and said: "We can hide as far as we can when we encounter this kind of weapon, but there is no way, but according to the current level of the empire's military industry, we are not capable of defending against the chemical attack of this weapon!"

With a long sigh, the commander of Gu Shoufu's division said gloomily: "It seems that the 88th division on the opposite side is not simple!" In that case, we have no choice but to treat others the way they do! ”

Captain Takeda said: "Tani Shoufu means ......"

The corners of Gu Shoufu's division commander's mouth hooked up a sneer: "Since they use gas bombs, then we also use gas bombs!" I have already requested from Commander Matsui for the transfer of a batch of poison gas bombs. ”

Captain Takeda said, "This gas bomb is not used well, but even our own soldiers have to be harmed!" In addition, it is necessary to equip gas masks and consider the direction of the wind. At present, our division is short of one-tenth of the gas masks, and if it is used incorrectly, it will poison our own soldiers. ”

The Captain of Takeda, who was born in the Department of Chemistry, was rightly worried, and the gas bomb was really a double-edged sword.

From the point of view of military offense, gas bombs are a highly effective weapon of killing.

During World War I, the Germans were the first to use a poison gas bomb, and the French positions that needed to be filled with human lives in the past could be taken without a single soldier.

There is a poisonous gas called mustard gas that is very lethal, and if you encounter it, even if you wear a gas mask, it is enough to choke, and it is also harmful to bare skin.

The 6th Division was not fully equipped with gas masks, and if the wind direction changed during the gas release, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The head of Gu Shoufu's division said: "Takeda-kun doesn't need to worry too much, this time the poisonous gas is the famous mustard gas, and it will hit Yuhuatai in a wave, I think there are still a few who can resist with guns!" When the time comes, our Sixth Division will be able to easily take Yuhuatai and go straight to Zhonghua Gate! ”

Captain Takeda asked rhetorically, "This really goes against the spirit of bushido advocated by the Imperial Army, does my Imperial Army need to capture the territory of the Shina Army in this way?"

Suddenly, his face straightened, and the head of Gu Shoufu's division scolded: "Baga! Let you attack Yuhuatai again, can you take it? If I continue to fight, I will have to pay a few formed wings, the 45th wing has been crippled, and I can't let the soldiers of the empire suffer any more losses! ”

The idea of the commander of Gu Shoufu's division also has his reason, attacking the Yuhuatai position for several days, and the Chinese army was able to fight with the sixth division.

The 45th Wing was defeated, the commander of the 45th Wing was killed, and even worse, overnight, the 88th Division on the opposite side dared to attack the camp of the 6th Division at night, destroying a full eight heavy guns.

For an elite division, this is a naked provocation!

In any case, the head of Gu Shoufu's division has to play ruthlessly this time.

The purpose of war is to defeat the opponent, and the means do not need to be calculated too much.

The use of chemical weapons not only caused the Chinese army to quickly lose its combat effectiveness, but the troops under Tani Shofu were able to occupy Yuhuatai without casualties.

Why not do this kind of profitable combat method?

As for the negative effects of gas bombs, they can be ignored.

Victory is due to luck, and the head of Gu Shoufu's division is willing to make this bet.

The commander of the division believed that the gas masks of the Imperial army could withstand the damage of this poisonous gas, and as long as the wind direction did not change, it could be accomplished.

Captain Takeda still said: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, think twice!"

The head of Gu Shoufu's division shouted: "Don't talk nonsense! Take care of your injuries! This afternoon you will see the Imperial Sun Flag planted on the 82nd Heights of Yuhuatai! ”

The field tent of the commander of Tani Shofu's division.

A devil lieutenant wearing a gas mask walked in.

The commander of the division saluted, and the second lieutenant said: "Report to the division commander, according to your request, six base numbers of poison gas bombs have been delivered to the forward position, and this is the list of poison gas bombs and the specific method of use."

After taking the list and browsing it, the head of Gu Shoufu's division showed a smile on his face: "Yo Xi! Great work! Go down and rest! Two hours later, a chemical bomb attack was carried out on the Yuhuatai position. ”

With the two heels together, the devil lieutenant straightened his waist and replied, "Haiyi! Thank you, Your Excellency, Division Commander! ”

The figure of the devil second lieutenant disappeared from the sight of the commander of the Gu Shoufu division, and the commander of the Gu Shoufu division looked at the list of poison gas bombs and couldn't help but fall into the longing for victory.

The chemical weapon that is prominently written on the list is mustard gas.

This is a very horrific chemical weapon.

In wartime, the eyes and nasal cavity of poisoned soldiers will be injured to varying degrees, and in severe cases, vomiting and suffocation can occur.

The Chinese army is not fully equipped, and the gas mask cannot be done for each person, Gu Shoufu confidently believes that the defenders of Yuhuatai will only shoot themselves at that time!

And Gu Shoufu's Sixth Division can easily take Yuhuatai, although it is not glorious to win, so what!

Although this was contrary to the rules of engagement of the Geneva Conventions from the point of view of the ethics of war, it was a joke to the reckless Imperial army, and victory was the most important thing.

For Gu Shoufu, who attaches great importance to his military exploits, it doesn't matter how despicable the means are, taking Yuhuatai is the last word!
