Chapter 163: Ogi Chau Soldiers
He Weizhen hurriedly called on the soldiers to intercept the little devils who repaired the bridge at the northern end of the broken Huaihe Bridge, wanting to kill them to dispel the little devils' attempt.
"Kill! Kill these little devils, don't let them repair the bridge! ”
A company of soldiers, led by the company commander, rushed up the bridge to intercept the little devils at the southern end of the broken bridge, and the soldiers lay behind sandbags one after another and shot at the Japanese troops on the bridge.
The technical units of some little devils were originally being nervously repaired, but they were strafed by bullets, and they were caught off guard, killing and injuring more than a dozen people at once.
The remaining little devils were suddenly startled and hurriedly ran back and hid behind sandbags.
When the Japanese officer on the bridge saw this scene, he was furious, drew his command knife, and shouted: "Baga! It's the Chinese army, destroy them! ”
After receiving the order, the little devil erected on the bridge immediately controlled the machine gun, turned the muzzle of the gun to the opposite bridge, and opened fire.
And the defenders were also in charge, controlling the machine guns to shoot fiercely at the little devils, and the two sides shot at each other, not giving in to each other, and each had casualties.
And because it was on the bridge, the little devils did not dare to bombard it with artillery, for fear that if the broken bridge was blown up again, it would be even more troublesome for them to repair it, so the large-caliber artillery and Japanese fighters did not throw bombs on the bridge.
Infantry on both sides were allowed to shoot at each other here.
The little devils are fighting for this Huaihe Bridge in order to facilitate their baggage and heavy weapons to be transported over, if the broken bridge is blown up again because of this, then there is no point in sacrificing so many soldiers to fight for this Huaihe Bridge.
As for small-caliber artillery mortars, as long as the other side is not afraid of life and death, they are of little use at all.
Because the caliber of small-caliber mortars is small, the power of the shells is not great, so after they are smashed, they are basically the fragments of the shells that explode, and shrapnel is used to cause casualties, but it can deal with the defenders on the opposite side, but it has little effect.
The defenders assumed only a heavy machine gun at the northern end of the broken bridge, where two fighters controlled the shooting, and even if they threw bombs, killing two people at most, it would have no effect on the heavy machine guns.
And as long as the heavy machine gun is not blown up, at most a few machine gunners and deputies will be killed, and the other one will be killed.
The broken bridge has no effect on the defenders, even if it is blown up, there is no loss, on the contrary, they very much hope to be able to blow up the broken bridge, but on the contrary, for the Japanese army, they have to worry about breaking the bridge, and can not throw aerial bombs and large-caliber shells, which makes them suffer relatively large losses.
It can be said that as long as the Japanese army does not use heavy weapons and blows up the heavy machine guns, and the defenders have enough ammunition, this is a completely unfortunate situation!
Under such circumstances, the Japanese troops on the bridge were worried and suffered large losses, and the Japanese troops who crossed the river were also blocked by the strong firepower of the defenders, and were blocked for a while.
In such a situation, the little devil is very strangely caught in a dilemma!
The officers of the little devils screamed in a hurry, and constantly ordered the soldiers to attack in fishing boats, but they were all stopped by the fierce fire of the defenders.
"Baga, this group of hateful people dares to stop the footsteps of our Great RB Empire, and they are all dead!" Seeing that the casualties were rising sharply, the officer of the little devil had no choice but to keep urging the attack, and at the same time jumping to his feet and scolding.
"Okawa-kun, let's let our soldiers withdraw first! It's not a way to attack like this! The soldiers are completely sent to death! Faced with this situation, a Japanese brigade commander walked up to the captain and said in a deep voice.
"But after you take it down...... On the division commander's side, I'm afraid it's not easy to explain! Hearing this, Wing Captain Maetaro Okawa said with some hesitation.
"It's okay, I'll explain it personally from the division commander's side!" Brigade commander Takada II said.
"Hey!"
Hearing this, Okawa Maetaro didn't want to say anything, and nodded directly in agreement, after all, the responsibility has been borne by the brigade commander, what else can he worry about!
What's more, in fact, Maetaro Okawa had long wanted to withdraw the troops, but because he didn't get the order, he didn't dare to give the order to retreat without authorization.
Maetaro Okawa hurriedly withdrew his troops, and after receiving his order, the little devils who were still attacking suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and went back, leaving the center of the battle.
After all, the opponent's firepower was too fierce, and they forced their way across the river, and the losses were very large!
This made this group of little devils a little scared when they arrived, and when they heard the retreat order, they couldn't wait to retreat.
Seeing this scene, the brigade commander Takada Er, who was on the side, couldn't help but shake his head, and after a few words of advice to Wing Commander Maetaro Okawa, Takada Ersupport headed towards the division headquarters not far away.
When the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out, the 13th Division opened to China, with the 2nd Division in Sendai as the parent body, and the 4 companies of the 58th Wing, 65th Wing, 104th Wing and 116th Wing formed the rebuilt 13th Division, which was transferred to the Shanghai front line of the 813 Incident shortly after the reconstruction.
Takada 2 Support is the brigade commander of the 25th Infantry Brigade under the 13th Division, under the command of the 58th Infantry Wing and the 65th Infantry Wing, and Okawa Maetaro is the commander of the 58th Infantry Wing.
The 13th Division participated in the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, and was also one of the participants in the Nanjing Massacre!
At present, the division commander of the 13th Division is Lieutenant General Tateshi Ogisu of the Japanese Army, and it is worth mentioning that Tateshi Ogisu is the fourth son of Matsuzaemon Ito, and the stepson of Ikujiro Hagishu, a second-class military medical officer of the army.
In March 1905, he graduated from the 17th class of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and then was awarded the position of second lieutenant of the infantry, and was the deputy of the reserve of the 6th Infantry Wing, and later interned at the General Staff Headquarters, and in November 1916, he graduated from the 28th class of the Army University.
This person has smooth sailing in his official career, and he is also hard in the background, so he has always been a little arrogant in character, and he is relatively arrogant, and even his colleagues look down on him.
After coming to the Republic of China, he was also ruthless to the people here, and during the 13th Division's time in Nanjing, he personally gave the order to slaughter!
It can be said that his hands are full of the blood of the Chinese!
And such an executioner, whom everyone hates, was sitting in the command headquarters at this time observing the map, and his face was a little gloomy.
