Facing a life-and-death situation, Seishiro Itagaki still abandoned the honor of the so-called "flower of the imperial army" and chose to flee backwards, but Zhang Cheng would not let go of this beast force that brought heavy disasters to the Chinese people in the original time and space, and ordered the 1st Brigade and the 5th Brigade to pursue from behind. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At this time, there were as many as 20,000 troops in the pursuit of the instructor, and the previous attack of the Japanese army did not bring much casualties to the instructor, on the other hand, the Japanese 21st Brigade was almost completely wiped out, and after gathering the remnants of the army, Itagaki Seishiro painfully found that the Japanese army had less than 3,000 people left, and even the strength of a wing could not be gathered.

You must know that the Fifth Division had 17,000 people when it set out, but now there are less than 3,000 people left, which shows how fierce the artillery bombardment of the instructor was and how heavy casualties it brought to the Japanese army.

Now less than 3,000 Japanese soldiers have chosen to break through and escape, but they are facing the pursuit of more than 20,000 instructors, can they escape?

In Zhang Cheng's view, it is naturally impossible, you must know that in front of the devil, he also arranged more than 10,000 people from the fourth brigade and the divisional combat unit to cut off the devil's retreat.

The arrogant Japanese army did not expect that Zhang Cheng had laid a net for the Fifth Division from the very beginning, and when they retreated south with the anger that they would take revenge and kill the instructor of the Guangguang Sect in the future after escaping, they never expected that they would crash headlong into the encirclement of the Fourth Brigade and the divisional combat units, and fall into an even greater abyss of death.

"Dada......"

When the Japanese army crashed headlong into the instructor's ambush circle without knowing it, the light machine guns, 37 bars, and Type 37 of the 4th Brigade and the division immediately shouted happily, and their mortars and most of the heavy machine guns were concentrated for the artillery brigade and heavy fire regiment to use, but even so, the concentration of firepower of more than 10,000 people firing at the same time was very terrifying.

The dense bullets, mixed with a large number of grenades, formed a tight network of firepower, and the Japanese troops who were caught off guard seemed to crash into an invisible wall, and were suddenly swept to the ground in rows, and the number of casualties soared.

The Japanese soldiers in the back were all terrified when they watched the Japanese soldiers in front of them continue to fall, they didn't expect that the instructor had actually cut off their back road and broke through the siege.

"Don't stop the cannon, keep firing at me!" Sun Youdao ordered loudly.

Since the troops in front had already intercepted the Fifth Division, Sun Youdao could ask the artillery to change the moving target to a fixed target, which would be more conducive to the artillery unit's play.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The retreat was cut off, and the pursuing shells once again plunged the Japanese army into dire straits, and more than 1,000 shells continued to smash at the remnants of the Japanese army, but only one round of shelling, the remaining Japanese troops suddenly suffered one-third casualties, and Japanese soldiers were constantly killed and blown away by the shells.

There were wolves in front and tigers in the back, and all the officers and men of the Japanese army were terrified, and even though the Fifth Division, known as the "Steel Army," faced with such a desperate situation, they could not help but feel a great rage of death and completely panicked.

"Your Excellency the division commander, there is an interception in front and a chasing soldier in the back, what should we do?" Seeing that the situation was critical, Nakagawa couldn't help but panic.

"You're the chief of staff, you should think about this question! Damn the Eighth Route Army, it turns out that their purpose is to completely destroy our Fifth Division, this is really rampant! "Even if Seishiro Itagaki has been through a hundred battles, he is completely out of line at this time.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, at this time, there is nothing to think about except to break through to the death, whether you die or live is left to fate!" Nakagawa said with a bleak face.

Itagaki Seishiro, who can be the division commander of the Fifth Division, naturally has two brushes, knowing that this time has reached a critical moment of life and death, he drew his lieutenant general's command knife, the blade pointed south, and said in very agitatory words: "Gentlemen, we have fallen for the tricks of the despicable Shina people, and we have fallen into the front and back attacks, if you don't want to die here and become the martial arts of the Shina people to show off, just rush out with me!" ”

"Kill, give!"

"His Majesty the Emperor is onboard!"

At this moment, all the Japanese soldiers have understood their situation, and they have reached the critical point of life and death, and in order to survive, they rushed towards the heavy encirclement of the instructor without hesitation.

The Fifth Division really lived up to the name of the "Steel Army", not only the combat troops, but also all the combatants and non-combatants who survived the other engineering wings, artillery wings, and field hospitals, all took up arms and launched a decisive charge against the Eighth Route Army.

When they charged, both men and women, their faces became extremely hideous, like devils who had come out of hell, which made people shudder.

What kind of troop is the teachable mentor! It was China's strongest army that rampaged into the 20,000-mile Long March from the siege of the KMT's 1 million troops, and such a force would not lose to the little devils with bushido spirit only in terms of courage, not to mention that they were also armed with sharp weapons, so they naturally had a murderous intent.

"Dada......"

Countless machine guns and rifles fired dense bullets, forming a line of death that glowed brightly, causing the Japanese soldiers who charged to the death to instantly hit their heads and bleed.

The decisive charge of the Japanese army was not unbrave, but the result of hitting the steel defense line with flesh and blood is self-explanatory, and it only ended up being defeated and killed.

The battle was raging so far, no matter how fierce the Japanese rushed and how fierce the soldiers were to death, in fact, their charge could not even get close to the instructor's position a hundred meters.

After more than ten minutes, there were fewer and fewer Japanese soldiers who continued to fall on the charging road, and the number of Japanese soldiers who survived was less than 500.

At the same time, the 1st Brigade and the 5th Brigade that were pursuing behind were all in place, completing the encirclement of the 5th Division, which had completely become meat on the chopping block and was left to be slaughtered by the instructors.

"It's time, let's teach the instructor to end the fate of the Fifth Division!" Seeing that the situation was completely in his hands, Zhang Cheng slowly put down the binoculars with both hands, and said coldly to the herald beside him: "The whole army is assaulting!" ”

"Tick Tick Tick, Tick ......"

As Zhang Cheng coldly gave the order to annihilate the Fifth Division, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who were all over the mountains jumped out of the trenches and rushed towards the Japanese army with vigorous steps, shouting and singing loudly.

"Rush!" "Kill!"

Itagaki Seishiro, who was covered in blood, looked at the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who were surrounded from all directions, and his mood suddenly fell to the bottom, at this time he deeply understood that the once invincible "flower of the imperial army" had withered.
