554. Don't take prisoners, but die light
How can that be? Take it down for me, so many people, what are you doing? If I can't take it, I will remove all of you who are officials. ”
Seeing that the gaps had been blocked, and the devils surrounded inside could not be eliminated, Captain Huo was so angry that he slapped the table and roared and gave a death order.
Although this devil can't cause any strong winds and waves, it is like a stab in the throat, and if you can't take it down, there will be endless troubles.
Lao Qin came up with a solution, which was actually very simple, that is, to burn.
The commander of the first battalion immediately asked people to suppress the devils to prevent them from raising their heads and coming out, and at the same time asked people to collect some wood and wooden blocks, set them up outside the house, pour fuel oil, light a fire, and a fire rose to the sky.
These houses are connected together, and once a fire breaks out, they all burn down, and the devils can't stand it inside, so they rush out one after another, and would rather rush out and be beaten to death than be burned to death by fire and suffocated by smoke.
There were also a few devils who jumped out with white flags, and everyone thought they didn't see it, so they still gave a few shots and shot them directly.
What did you do on a dog day? Why didn't you surrender earlier? It's been tossing for so long, but the order to die has been issued from above, don't surrender, you have to die.
If you say that you are dead, you have to die, otherwise, where will you put Captain Huo with such a big face? To be honest, you must first speak and count.
……
In the evening, all the devils in Zhuangzi were purged, and none of them were taken prisoner, because the Chinese soldiers did not give them a chance, even the wounded, even the seriously wounded.
The Chinese soldiers all said that they don't want a reward of 20 yuan for catching a prisoner, let alone the wounded soldiers of the devils, they don't have enough medicine for themselves, and they give it to the devils, which is wasteful, and they would rather throw it away than give it to the devil.
After catching the devil, I have to feed him, serve him, think about beauty, and want to give him a "peanut" (bullet) to taste.
Of course, this is just the indignation of the soldiers below, as those officers, they still want to catch the devil prisoners, not for any reward, but for intelligence.
If you catch a live mouth and interrogate it, it is estimated that you can get some major information, which is worth a lot, far less than a 20 yuan reward.
However, the officers and soldiers at the bottom did not have this idea and consciousness first, and second, so many brothers died at the hands of devils, especially the Nanjing Massacre, which brought great indignation to the military and people throughout the country.
I heard that other troops have captured the prisoners of the devils, but it seems that nothing can be found in the interrogation, the devils are too stubborn and proud, even if they surrender, they look down on the Chinese army.
……
After another day of busy work, Major General Seya of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army was simply mad, with powerful weapons of several generations, he attacked fiercely for several days in a row, and he couldn't even take a single Taierzhuang, let alone Xuzhou.
The 63rd Wing Captain Fukuei Osa was scolded by Seya and couldn't raise his head, and he wanted to take revenge for the sneak attack of the Chinese army last night, but he had already entered Taierzhuang, but he still couldn't take it, and he lost a lot of people.
Seya calmed down, continued to increase troops, and transferred the 10th Wing, which lost a lot when attacking Teng County, and now it has replenished some new recruits in the past few days, and has recovered a little vitality, so it has been transferred.
If a breakthrough doesn't work, let's make more breakthroughs. Seeing that his troops had increased, Seya decided on a battle plan for the next day.
The continuous bloody battle during the day made the front-line soldiers like Lao Qin and them very tired, and many of them were scarred, the seriously wounded were sent down, and the lightly wounded were all left in the position and were not allowed to retreat.
The defenders and the devils were very tired, Lao Qin and they could no longer launch a night attack, they were so tired that many soldiers didn't even eat dinner, so they fell asleep on the ground.
And the guard company of the 184th regiment, although it escaped the pursuit of the devils that night, it also suffered a lot of losses, and now it can only harass the devils on the periphery, which has no effect.
Besides, after the devil fell into bad luck that night, he began to be alert, and it was almost difficult to have a loophole for the Chinese army to drill.
The soldiers under his command are getting fewer and fewer, and they still have to keep the guard company by their side, not to protect themselves, but this is a new force, a reserve, and it can be used at a critical time.
……
Early the next morning, the morning fog had not completely subsided, and the devil's cannon alarm clock rang on time again, and Lao Qin and the others were accustomed to it, so they fell into the bunker and continued to sleep with their clothes and guns.
The devil's plane also circled and dropped bombs overhead, and the entire Zhuangzi was shrouded in a cloud of gunpowder smoke again, almost dark, but the bright light of the shell explosion frequently illuminated some outlines in the black fog.
This time, the Japanese concentrated their firepower in the northwest corner and due north directions, and bombarded indiscriminately, and in less than half an hour, the stone walls on both sides and the trenches inside and outside were razed to the ground.
The bombs of the airplanes were the largest and most powerful, hundreds of kilograms of aerial bombs, with a sharp cry, whizzing down, followed by an indescribable loud noise, as if a huge thunder was exploding in the ears.
Then the earth trembled, and the shock wave destroyed everything that had been erected at the point of impact and the surrounding ground, and then the sand and rocks flew and the wind swept the clouds.
However, after all, the bombers could not compare with the bombs, and after some bombing, they returned home, leaving only a few fighters still circling, waiting for an opportunity to strafe the Chinese army.
However, the heavy artillery of the Japanese army, after the extension, still carried out sporadic artillery bombardment on the central position of Taierzhuang, one in the east and one in the west, which seemed to have no target, but it had a great deterrent to the defenders.
No one can tell where the devil's next shot will be, which makes it extremely inconvenient for the defenders to mobilize troops, transport ammunition, transport the wounded, etc.
Many people have to resign themselves to fate, they should go, they should be lucky, and they are going to be blown up, which is bad luck.
After the Japanese heavy artillery was extended, the small guns of some infantry guns did not stop, and then continued to hit the two gaps, and the tanks followed these small guns closely, gradually advancing.
After the devil suffered yesterday's big blood loss, he changed his playing style this time, and it is no longer a tactic to focus on breaking through a little bit and accelerating the in-depth advancement.
Rather, it is a multi-point breakthrough, and immediately after the breakthrough, it does not pursue to advance to depth, but occupies the gap, holds the position and keeps increasing the troops, expands the area of the gap, and then gradually advances and squeezes the defender's position.
In all fairness, the self-correction ability of the devil commander is top-notch, and the command ability is also top-notch.
Now, combined with the number of available people after last night's increase in troops, this tactic is close to the combination of the sea of people and the superior resources of weapons.
As a result, the Chinese army began to feel uncomfortable, especially Lao Qin, the troops guarding the front line, the pressure increased dramatically, and they almost had no strength to resist again.
The devil's tank car, under the cover of small artillery and the machine guns of the infantry behind it, plus the machine guns and 37 guns carried by the tank itself, was very arrogant, and almost swept all the positions in the gaps.
