1235. The Devil Descends

Historically, when artillery encounters the opposing infantry face to face, they all kneel down and call their father's sake, and if they can't do it, they will flee to death, and maybe there will be a chance to pick up a life and go back.

I don't know how to look down on artillery, but this branch of the army determines that they can't fight face-to-face like the infantry, so the general artillery has a protection force.

Or a small artillery in a machine gun company like the 3rd Battalion, who is a part-time infantryman, or everyone has a rifle, put down the cannon, and immediately become an infantryman.

And now the Japanese artillery on the opposite side is not a small artillery mortar unit, but a serious mountain artillery artillery unit, which purely plays with technology, unlike the infantry who work hard with mud legs.

The key is that this group of artillery actually has no infantry protection, pure artillery, this phenomenon actually appeared in Sixi, but at that time, the third battalion did not have time to engage in such devils, and focused on finding Oga Mao.

Now that the 3rd Battalion has gone through a tragic resistance battle at Hongqiao, its vitality has been greatly damaged, and it is no longer mentioned that it is ambitious to hunt down Oga Shige.

The strength is here, according to Sangou's idea, he was going to pull the troops back to rest and recuperate, but the battle of Hongqiao lost all his morale, and people were tired.

But now that he received an order from the regiment commander Liu Guangyu, he had to regain his depressed mood, cheer up his spirits, and pull the troops forward to chase down the devil deserters.

Sangou knew Commander Liu's kindness, and thought that their three battalions were so miserable, so they put it behind and gave some fat to do it, and rewarded it.

No, I immediately ran into the devil's artillery unit, judging from the steel of such a large number of barrel guns and shield gun mounts, there were at least a dozen mountain guns.

Obediently, these dozen or so mountain artillery should be a brigade in the mountain artillery wing, and the Japanese army is normally equipped with 36 mountain artillery wings of 75 mountain guns.

made a fortune, even if the devil destroyed the bolt of the cannon, but this large pile of steel can also be exchanged for a lot of bonuses, and it is a very good raw material for cannons, and it is very good to assemble, repair, and make spare parts for other cannons.

Liu Guangyu did know that there was a lot of fat on the way, but Sangou still couldn't lift his energy, without Da He Mao, this pile of steel, even if it was a complete cannon, was not interesting.

If we count the artillery and ammunition of a mountain artillery brigade to protect the infantry and transport team, this small village with only about 10 households cannot accommodate it at all.

It is estimated that the mules and horses of those transport teams have died, the personnel have been requisitioned to other places, the infantry should have left, and the remaining artillery and ammunition soldiers are estimated to have taken advantage of the chaos to go a lot, and now these dozen or so broken houses can not hide from a squadron of devils at most.

Sangou's estimate is indeed not wrong, all the twelve mountain guns of the 33rd Brigade of the 33rd Wing of the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army are here, and as for the personnel, most of them have run away.

Now only the hapless Squadron Leader Masaki Yamaguchi is left, with less than a squadron of artillery and ammunition soldiers trapped in this small village, who had already dismantled and destroyed all the artillery in the middle of the night, and was ready to abandon the artillery and flee.

As a result, they encountered a strong medium **, and almost killed them all, but this medium ** was not here, and after a few casual hits, a little troops were left to contain them, and the large army rushed forward to pursue the large army of the Japanese army.

And the middle **, who left less than a platoon, didn't know why he left after seeing that it was dawn, and when Captain Yamaguchi was ready to beckon everyone to run away, the search soldiers of the third battalion also happened to arrive.

If you miss the middle of the night, this group of devils will miss this life, but even if you let them run in the middle of the night, it is estimated that it will be difficult to escape, after all, there are medium ** everywhere.

With such a small number of manpower and lack of weapons and food, they have encountered the stretcher team of the middle **, and it is estimated that they are not opponents, and they have not eaten properly for at least two days.

Now Captain Yamaguchi looked at his subordinates, who were less than a hundred people, and he was so miserable that he wanted to cry, all of them were yellow and thin, their clothes were in tatters, and some of them were staggering when they even stood up.

Yamaguchi closed his eyes and forcefully made a decision, surrender. He asked his men to find a white towel, which he picked on the bayonet of a rifle, and on the windowsill, he rocked back and forth against the troops surrounded by the three battalions.

Sangou understands what is going on, and the soldiers of the third battalion also know, but they are still a little uneasy, in case the devil is a fraud, he can't eat and leave.

Chen Yanxin shouted loudly at the devils in Japanese, telling them to lay down their weapons and come out one by one to ensure their lives.

When Yamaguchi heard this voice, it was like a heavenly sound, and now his life was finally there, and he immediately ordered people to throw their weapons out of the window, and walked out one by one in a line.

All this was strongly opposed by a squad leader named Haruo Akiki, and he strongly opposed it from the beginning, fighting to the death to the end, and worthy of the identity and mission of the imperial army.

But no one responded to him, after all, this was an artilleryman, not an infantry, and he did not have such a strong will to fight and a decisive heart, everyone regarded him as an outlier and ignored him.

Yamaguchi also ignored him, this is a personal will, and if he does not agree, he can stay and continue to fight, but he can't drag others to accompany him to death.

Maybe it was the artillery officer who was not as decisive as the infantry officer, or maybe Yamaguchi didn't take the captain of the gigi when he thought about the possible review that he would have when he returned home after surrendering.

The problem is here, when Yamaguchi led everyone out of the dilapidated house one by one, Jigi suddenly picked up a rifle and shot a Chinese soldier in the back.

This is equivalent to stabbing the hornet's nest, and the soldiers of the third battalion immediately lay down, all their weapons, beckoning to the devils, and for a while, flesh and blood flew sideways.

Yamaguchi Masayoshi watched his men fall to the ground one by one, and he was shot several times in a row, and when he was dying, he regretted that he was not sure that Kisen could control it, but it was too late now, and everything was too late.

After the gunfire continued for a long time, the soldiers of the third battalion stopped, but they were still furious, and they stabbed these bloody devils, the devils who were not dead, with bayonets.

On the battlefield, it is extremely fearful to surrender, and ordinary troops dare not use it, after all, this is too hurtful to credibility, and if you deceive the enemy for a while, you will have no chance to really surrender in the future.

It is equivalent to blocking all their retreats, but as devils who have been brainwashed by ****, they have never thought of surrendering, so there is no need to surrender.

It's just that I pity those devils who want to surrender and want to live, and they are coerced and become victims of war and sacrifices of ****.

The soldiers of the third battalion never thought of capturing the devils, but after all, for the sake of the battalion commander and company commander, as well as in front of the military order, they did not dare to blatantly kill the prisoners.

But now that the devil has surrendered, this gives everyone a justifiable reason to kill the prisoners, and if his brother is killed, everyone will be angry.

For the entire third battalion, although this devil's fraudulent surrender is only a small episode, but on the whole, it is still very worthwhile, if the devil does not surrender to the death, more than one soldier will be sacrificed. Fupin Chinese
