Chapter 112: Signs of Division
When Lai Wenli and the others were bombed, Dai Cunxiang was organizing his troops and preparing to go around the village from both sides and carry out a strong attack.
The number of devils in Zhuzhuang does not seem to be very large, which gives him hope that he can occupy it, and at this moment he is still thinking about how to complete the task assigned by Sun Yumin, and he has not considered the retreat of his own people at all.
Although the sky was already bright, there was still no shadow of half a devil in sight inside and outside Zhuzhuang, only the constantly roaring machine guns told the attacking national soldiers that this place was full of death traps.
Thundered......
The loud noise from the direction of Guanzhai and the tremor under his feet made Dai Cunxiang stunned, and he didn't hear any guns from there until the end, some just continued to explode, even if he could hear a formal or Czech voice, his heart would not be so bottomless.
This Iron Bull Regiment, although he has not dealt with him for a long time, he likes and admires him very much, not only because he is a cronie brought by the division, but also because this person does not look like a national army commander from the inside out. Dai Cunxiang has been in the army for many years, and he has not seen any colonel commander who can sleep with grassroots soldiers, he is the first, and it is from Lai Wenli and Zhang Xiaohu, who is the brigade commander, that Dai Cunxiang sees the difference and sees hope, so he will be single-minded, and he will follow Sun Yumin's gang to the soup and fire.
Now, the situation on the regiment leader's side is so different, and he is like a blind man, he doesn't know anything, which is unacceptable to Dai Cunxiang, and his heart began to panic.
A battle broke out on the left side of the village first, and although the sound was very mixed, Dai Cunxiang could hear that the Czech and mid-formal voices clearly dominated the top, and the crisp 'horn' sound of the 38 Dagai was getting farther and farther away, as if it was retreating while fighting. After the guns began to fire on the left, there was no sound of the devil's machine gun, not to mention the pheasant's neck, not even the sound of a crooked handle. Dai Cunxiang wondered in his heart: Could it be that there are only a few devils in this village, right? There were at least three devil heavy machine guns that rang out before, a standard Japanese squadron firepower configuration, if there was a squadron of devils here, then there were at least more than a dozen light machine guns, but the battle has been for more than ten minutes now, and I haven't heard a single devil light machine gun.
Thinking of this, Dai Cunxiang suddenly had an ominous premonition that his two battalions might all be thrown here.
The thought was still in his mind, and the battle on the left side of the village suddenly took a drastic turn, the attacking third battalion seemed to have encountered a wall composed of bullets, and the crooked sound of the crooked handle, which had not been heard until now, finally unveiled its veil, and the cheerful sound of "sudden ......" seemed to be a rhythmic drum beat, silently suppressing the Czech-style and Chinese official of the national army.
Listening to the sound, Dai Cunxiang knew that the third battalion had kicked the iron plate, although the two companies of the fourth battalion with him had not yet had a head-on exchange of fire with the devils, but the third battalion on the left was estimated to be no good, and although the other two companies of the fourth battalion lured by the front were still shooting at the devils at the entrance of the village, if the people on their side failed to break through the village, then they would eventually be eaten alive by the devil reinforcements of Sanyi Village.
At this moment, all the pressure was piled up on Dai Cunxiang, and he felt the slightest bit of powerlessness, it was the first time he had this feeling in his long military career. Looking at the road when he kept turning back, the soldiers who followed him around the right side of the village could feel that the regiment deputy was looking forward to reinforcements, but everyone knew that the brigade commander with the 116th regiment and the newly formed regiment was going to fight the devils head-on, and they were still short of troops, so how could the reinforcements come to help!
Boom......
An explosion pulled Dai Cunxiang, who was thinking wildly, back to reality, the two soldiers who opened the road in front were fine, but the few soldiers who followed behind them received a grenade, the explosion power of this little thing looks small, but the lethality is stronger than the grenade of the national army. This grenade not only cost the lives of two soldiers, but also several wounded and bloody lying on the ground wailing in pain.
The incident happened suddenly, and Dai Cunxiang himself was in a state of confusion, and he didn't notice the direction of the grenade just now, and he didn't even know whether it was fired from a grenadier.
Dai Cunxiang asked a soldier beside him, "Where did the grenade come from?" β
The soldier pointed to the top of his head and said, "The roof rolled down." β
As soon as the words were finished, several more smoking grenades rolled down from the thatched roof.
"Throw it out." Dai Cunxiang's reaction was extremely fast, others were still in a sluggish state, he had already picked up one and threw it out, shouting while throwing it.
If he hadn't seen Lai Wenli pick up the devil grenade and throw it out, he wouldn't have dared to do such a move anyway. Some people take the lead, and there is no shortage of people who follow suit. The few grenades that had just fallen were thrown out, and when he saw the grenades exploding in the air, Dai Cunxiang was not only relieved, but if these gadgets were blown up between his own bunch of people, he didn't know how many more people would have to be killed, and even he might be killed.
"There's a devil in the back of the house." A clever soldier shouted first, and the lieutenant in his hand was also the first to shoot.
Without Dai Cunxiang's order, the weapons in the hands of his soldiers began to shoot at the side of the house. This kind of adobe thatched house can't stop bullets at all, not to mention the papier-mΓ’chΓ© windows and thin door panels.
As soon as the guns rang out on the side of the national army, someone on the other side of the house was immediately shot and fell to the ground. At the same time, the sound of 'clucking ......' that Dai Cunxiang didn't want to hear sounded on the other side of the room, and there was more than one devil heavy machine gun. What kind of concept is this, there are three at the entrance of the village, two behind this broken house, and there are five heavy machine guns, according to the firepower of the devils, the Japanese army here is at least two squadrons.
Fucking. Dai Cunxiang secretly scolded in his heart, he was afraid that he had already been tricked, and the gang of people under him estimated that they would all have to die on the edge of the Yellow River.
His mind was running, and his feet didn't stop, Dai Cunxiang had already led people forward when the gun went off, ran straight for more than 30 meters, and came to the edge of another house before turning left, his purpose was very clear, first kill the devil behind that house.
He was running at the front, followed by a dozen soldiers of the fourth battalion, and when he ran to the eaves of the house he had just arrived, he rushed to the side of the gun, and at the corner he found a cold wind hitting his chest, and the instinct of man urged him to move to the side, but he was still slow, and a bayonet was attached to his chest, and the skin on his chest was cut raw. If he hadn't leaned sideways, this bayonet would have just cut through the skin, and I'm afraid it would have been inserted into the heart.
Dai Cunxiang's first reaction was very fast, as soon as he dodged the fatal knife, his hand quickly grabbed the muzzle of the 38 big cover that suddenly stabbed, and with a little force, he took the bayonet off the muzzle slot, and stabbed his backhand into the chest of the devil soldier who had been pulled out by him. This one-way action made the soldiers behind him stunned.
"There's devils in there!" At the same time that the knife in Dai Cunxiang's hand was inserted into the chest of the devil soldier, he shouted out this sentence that everyone did not want to hear.
The gun rang out again, it was the sound of a crooked handle, and when Dai Cunxiang heard this sound, at least two bullets entered his arm and shoulder, and then flew out from these two places, and he didn't know where it had gone.
He was not alone, but the soldiers behind him were caught off guard by the bullets that came in a dense manner, and they were shot down before they could react. The adobe house couldn't stop the devil's machine gun bullets at all, and the casualties of his own soldiers were so high when they were completely invisible, which made Dai Cunxiang completely incomprehensible. How could he possibly know that, like Guan Zhai, every place and corner of Zhuzhuang was walked by a short and fat devil officer, carefully measured, and even simulated the tactics of the national army in person.
The defeated and undefeated soldiers of the national army were lying on the ground, and this was the safest way to do so when they could not figure out the firepower of the opponent's numbers.
Soon Dai Cunxiang and they regretted it, because they found that the same situation as before, there were more than ten or twenty grenades on the thatched roof, it was impossible to pick up these things, and it was impossible for the people lying on the ground to avoid these life-seeking mines.
At this moment, the soldier who had been following him and watching him assassinate the devil soldiers in an instant pounced on him and completely protected Dai Cunxiang.
Collapse, collapse, collapse............
The continuous explosion like a firecracker blew up a layer of dust like a plough in a palm-sized place, and even if he was pressed under his body, Dai Cunxiang was still hit by a few pieces of shrapnel on his legs and hands that were not covered. And the soldier on his body didn't know how many fragments of forty-eight petals had been hit after the explosion, and the blood that flowed from his body had already soaked the people who were pressed underneath.
Dai Cunxiang couldn't feel the sticky wetness, not to mention that he was bleeding himself, the powerful shock wave generated by the explosion alone had already knocked him out.
The soldier who was protecting Dai Cunxiang didn't see any pain on his face at all, but kept smiling. When the last explosion passed, he finally lost the last of his strength and rolled off Dai Cunxiang's body.
A team of devil soldiers rushed out from behind the house and shot at the corpses on the ground, but fortunately, Dai Cunxiang, who was unconscious at the front, didn't even take a shot.
Looking at the soldiers of the national army who could no longer die in this place, a devil officer stopped these people from shooting indiscriminately, and after muttering a few words in his mouth, he took this group of devils and went to Dai Cunxiang and them on the way to come.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
When Sun Yumin arrived at the forward headquarters, Zhang Xiaohu was angry there, and his roaring voice could be heard from afar. The people in the headquarters were all looking down and listening to his roar, and no one noticed that Sun Yumin and Liu Wenzhi had come in.
"No matter what method you use, no matter how many lives you have to fill in, I just want the result! No matter what, I'm going to see his people in front of me! Zhang Xiaohu roared and said this.
"What's going on? What are you angry about? Sun Yumin took off the white gloves on his hand, threw them on a broken table that he didn't know where he got them, and asked softly.
As soon as his voice came out, Zhang Xiaohu suddenly raised his head as if he had been stimulated by something, and shouted at Sun Yumin: "Tie Niu is dead, and the 115th regiment is all gone." It's all you, let them take down those two broken villages that are impossible to hold at all costs. It was you who sent more than 2,000 brothers into the tiger's mouth in vain. β
Sun Yumin was stunned, he didn't expect to be yelled at as soon as he came, and he didn't expect to hear such bad news as soon as he came. Not only was he stunned, but Liu Wenzhi and the little girl who came with him were stunned, no one would have thought that Zhang Xiaohu, who was usually docile and docile, would have such an amazing move.
"Zhang Xiaomei, are you tired of being tired of talking to my eldest brother like this." The little girl was very clever, she didn't talk about Sun Yumin's identity, she actually wanted to give Zhang Xiaohu a step down.
"I'm tired of it!" When Zhang Xiaohu said this, he was already crying, and tears flowed down his face. "More than 2,000 people, these are all living people, and Tie Niu, he is a member of the second battalion, how many people are left in our second battalion now? You can count it on one finger, and if you die, you will lose one, and you will never be able to get it back! β
Zhang Xiaohu was Wu Youyuan's communicator when he was the commander of the second battalion, and later followed Sun Yumin, and he can be regarded as one of the most confidants. He is also a veteran who has come all the way from the Octagonal Bridge, even Sun Yumin has hardly seen the crying appearance, this time he is really sad, the death of more than 2,000 soldiers plus the iron bull deeply stimulated him, so that he did not choose to speak, and knew the rationality and calmness that a commander should have.
"Are you a? Only crying and crying? Sun Yumin raised the tone of his speech, and he scolded Zhang Xiaohu: "If anyone kills my Sun Yumin's brother, there is only one result, he has to die, even if he can't kill him, even if he bites with his mouth and grabs with his hands, I will let him peel off his skin." β
Seeing that Zhang Xiaohu seemed to be touched, Sun Yumin grabbed the hat from his head, threw it on the ground, tore off his epaulettes and collar badges, untied his belt, threw it on the ground, pointed at him and shouted: "Now that you and my brother have been killed, if it is a man, take your people to kill me with me." β
Zhang Xiaohu was stunned, and he watched as Sun Yumin walked out of this improvised command headquarters, snatched a middle school from a guard at the door, pulled the bolt, and stuck the bayonet.
"Take Li Tianxi's new group, and kill me to help Tie Niu take revenge." Sun Yumin threw down this sentence and walked forward without looking back.
This time, Liu Wenzhi did not stop it, and the battle reached this chaotic moment, and the division commander personally went out, which was a great encouragement to the morale of the soldiers below.
Seeing that the little girl also followed Sun Yumin's example and grabbed a middle school, and ran with him, Liu Wenzhi sighed, it was really big and small, and he didn't have to worry about it.
Zhang Xiaohu glanced at Liu Wenzhi, as if he wanted to say something, but finally didn't open his mouth. With a heart, he took off his coat, grabbed a big knife, and walked out after him.
