Chapter 143 Landscape

Things in the world are like this, the soft are afraid of the hard, the hard are afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal is afraid of the flute!

Once upon a time, the 16th Division of the Japanese Army attacked the north and the south on the battlefield of aggression against China, killing people was like drinking cold water, and the competition of 100 people to kill people was all published in the pictorial magazines in Tokyo.

This group of murderous demon kings never expected that the small Mafang Town in the depths of Taihang Mountain would become the killing ground of the arrogant 20th Cavalry Wing of the 16th Division, and the destruction field of the 20th Wing of the 19th Infantry Brigade, the 1st Brigade of the 16th Division's elite infantry, the machine gun squadron, and the brigade artillery squadron!

Xiao Siming did understand the habits of the Japanese army, and the captain of the first brigade of the 20th Wing led the remnants of the brigade headquarters, two infantry squadrons and the brigade transport team to retreat, because he was worried that the Eighth Route Army would chase after him along the highway, and he did not go far, and seized the commanding heights less than 5 kilometers away from Mafang Town, preparing to ambush.

At this time, the captain of the devil brigade still had a trace of fantasy in his heart, that is, the 20th Cavalry Wing, his two infantry squadrons, machine gun squadrons, and brigade artillery squadrons, some soldiers should be able to escape, and it is impossible for them to be killed by the Eighth Route Army!

It's also common sense! Generally speaking, after the army is ambushed, there will always be someone who can get away with it!

At this time, the captain of the devil brigade has long lost his former arrogance, his face is pale, and he is as irritable as a beast that frequently dies, climbing on the hillside, holding a telescope, staring at the road under the hillside with his eyes, hoping that the Eighth Route Army can line up a column to chase along the road, so that he can fight an ambush and avenge the arrow!

The captain of the devil brigade was disappointed, not only did the Eighth Route Army not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but none of the soldiers who were ambushed in Mafang Town fled back. The direction of Mafang Town was quiet, as if there had never been a fight.

This terrible silence is the most chilling!

The ambush could not be fought for the time being, so the captain of the devil brigade ordered the troops to immediately build fortifications and prepare to hold on!

This devil captain thought enough, he didn't dare to order the troops to retreat, because the vast Taihang Mountains were full of battlefields suitable for ambushes and blockades. He was worried that once he retreated, the Eighth Route Army in Mafang Town would catch up, or take a small road to go around in front of him, ambush him again, and let him and his remnants be buried in Taihang Mountain!

Now we have to wait for His Excellency the Wing Commander and His Excellency the Brigade Commander to lead the main force to reinforce it!

The captain of the devil brigade didn't think that the Eighth Route Army in Mafang Town might retreat, but he didn't dare to take risks, neither dared to lead the remnants into Mafang Town to find out, nor did he dare to lead the remnants to continue to retreat, so he could only hold on to the spot with his eyes wide open.

The little devil's disappointment all fell into the eyes of the investigators of the advance brigade. After the scouts were ordered to evacuate and return to the team, Wang Lushui and Hu Qingyun knew that Xiao Siming expected the enemy to be like a god, and the little devil was really a big man, and he was really ready to ambush!

While directing the remnants to build positions, the captain of the devil brigade kept sending telegrams to His Excellency the wing commander and brigade commander requesting urgent tactical guidance.

Lieutenant General Kusaba Tatsumi, commander of the 19th Brigade of the 16th Division, was taken aback when he received a telegram from the commander of the 1st Brigade of the 20th Infantry Wing asking for help, he did not believe at all that the Eighth Route Army had the strength to swallow the 20th Cavalry Wing in one bite, and he did not believe that the Eighth Route Army could wipe out the two infantry squadrons, the machine gun squadron, and the artillery squadron of the 1st Brigade with an ambush!

Major General Kuaba Tatsumi immediately ordered to call the aviation corps, and asked the aviation corps to urgently dispatch to investigate Mafang Town, to find out what was going on in Mafang Town, where the 20th Cavalry Wing was, and whether it was pursuing in the direction of Heshun City or Shiguai Town!

It is not far from Shijiazhuang Airport and Anyang Airport, and about an hour later, the Japanese plane rushed to the sky over Mafang, lowered the altitude, flew over the treetops and rooftops, and saw the situation in Mafang Town clearly, and took pictures.

The pilot of the Japanese plane reported to the airport command center through a microphone that there were pools of blood everywhere in Mafang Town, and that there were no living army soldiers or war horses, but only piles of corpses of army soldiers, and only a piece of crotch cloth was left behind the whole body.

Major General Kusaba Tatsuki, who received a telegram from Shijiazhuang Airport about the results of the air reconnaissance, fainted directly, but fortunately there was a military doctor with him, and Major General Kusaba Tatsumi couldn't faint to death if he wanted to, and he had to be rescued!

The rescued Major General Kuaba Tatsuki could no longer care about going to Xiyang along the road, capturing Heshun City and opening up the Pingliao Highway, and while reporting to the division commander Lieutenant General Nakajima Imakago and the headquarters of the First Army, he ordered the troops to turn around and return to Songta along the road, leaving behind two brigades of tanks, armored vehicles, automobiles, and field artillery that could not pass from Songta to Mafang.

By the time Major General Kusaba Tatsumi hurried to the vicinity of Mafang to join the remnants of the First Brigade, it was already night.

In the dark night, the Taihang Mountains are majestic and unfathomable. Major General Kusaba Tatsumi also did not have the courage to attack Mafang Town late at night, so he could only camp with his soldiers on the hastily constructed position of the remnants of the First Brigade.

Early the next morning, Major General Kusaba Tatsumi dispatched his troops, first sending two squadron-sized search troops to search and advance along the peaks on both sides of the highway and report the presence of the enemy in flags, and then divided the remnants of the two brigades and the first brigade into three waves and advanced along the highway to Mafang Town.

At a distance of less than five kilometers, the unbeatable elite little devils of the 20th Infantry Regiment of the 19th Brigade of the 16th Division of the Japanese Army walked for a full two hours before they arrived at Mafang Town.

As soon as they entered Mafang Town, all the little devils were stunned!

On the only main street in town, there are three spherical landscapes, but all three of them are stacked with the sleek corpses of Japanese soldiers!

Every corpse of the Japanese soldier was stripped down to the identity tag under the shoulder socket and the crotch cloth in the crotch, with the head facing outward and the feet facing inward, arranged in a circle, stacked layer by layer, and looked very neat!

On the ground next to each landscape, there are big red characters written in the blood of the Japanese army: "Blood debt and blood repayment!" "Blood debt and blood payment! "Blood debt and blood repayment!"

The Japanese soldiers who walked into the town, from officers to soldiers, all couldn't move!

Kusaba Tatsuji is a dignified major general and brigade commander, so naturally he doesn't need to charge ahead, he follows the rearguard troops into the town.

When I went to the town, I saw that the Japanese troops of the two and a half infantry brigades, plus the troops directly under the 20th Wing, were all crowded at the northern end of the town, forming a human wall, and the dense wind could not blow in.

Kusaba Tatsuya had already led the guards of the brigade, and the soldiers were busy opening the way for His Excellency the Brigade Commander, so they forcibly separated a passage from the crowded pile of Japanese soldiers and let His Excellency the Brigade Commander walk over!

At first glance, seeing the landscape made of corpses of Japanese soldiers, Kusaba Tatsumi was also stupid, he couldn't move his feet, and stared at the three spherical landscapes with his eyes stupidly, as if his soul had floated out of his body and became a zombie!

After a full 5 minutes, Major General Kusaba Tatsumi came back to his senses, pulled out his command knife, shouted "Baga" like a wolf, and ordered all troops to take them away, quickly launch a search, seize the commanding heights around the horse square, and strictly arm.

Major General Tatsumi Kusaba is an old devil, and he knows that this situation will be a huge blow to the morale of the troops, and it is necessary to let the troops out of these two environments. Otherwise, if there is an Eighth Route Army hidden in the town, and then an ambush, the troops he brought will repeat the mistakes of the past!

It should be said that Kusaba Tatsuki's disposal is decisive, timely and effective!

At this point, those Japanese officers and soldiers were as if their souls had been drained away, and their faces were blank, ignoring the orders of His Excellency the Brigade Commander!

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the devil's ranks. Major General Kusaba Tatsumi looked up and saw two young ensigns hugging and tearing together, shouting while fighting: "This is impossible!" "It's not true!"

Let these two lieutenants make a fuss, the little devil who was already nervous and about to break the strings couldn't hold it back anymore, some howled and cried, and some pulled out their war knives and waved them wildly, and the scene was chaotic.

As soon as Kusaba saw that the situation was out of control, he immediately ordered his brigade guards to set up machine guns and bayonets to drive the soldiers away and let the troops take them away.

As soon as Kusaba Tatsuki's guard team began to move, a devil machine gunner went crazy, and with a brand-new Type 96 light machine gun, he swept away the dense devil formation.

"Giggles", "Giggles", a shuttle of thirty machine gun bullets all splashed at the devil pile, and immediately there was blood flowing all over the field!

The nerves of this devil machine gunner were crushed by such a bloody scene, and he went crazy and shot at his comrades!

Without waiting for the heavy to change the magazine, Major General Tatsumi Kusaba pointed at the heavy with his command knife and shouted, "Kill!" ”

This devil machine gunner was killed by the brigade guard of Major General Kusaba Tatsumi, and another little devil went crazy over there. A short, stout devil soldier suddenly picked up his bayonet and stabbed a soldier next to him, stabbing the soldier to the ground in a pool of blood!

It wasn't until this soldier stabbed three people in a row that he was killed by his own squadron leader with a pistol!

The scene is in chaos again!

Kusaba Tatsumi saw that it was not good, walked over and stood in front of the team, pulled out his hand bang, shot eight shots in a row towards the sky, and finished a magazine, then shouted loudly: "All the troops are taken away!" ”

The devil officers and soldiers who gathered together were finally awakened by the gunfire and roar of Kusaba Tatsuki!

The officers of the Japanese army are all graduates of the army non-commissioned officer school, and some of the officers above the rank of group commander are still graduates of the army university, and their tactical quality is very high. At this awakening, the officers knew that they couldn't let the soldiers huddle around to watch this damn spectacle any longer, and if they continued to watch, the troops would be finished!

The devil officers began to direct the troops to separate, warrant officers, ensigns, lieutenants, and lieutenants, all shouting and pushing hard, waking the soldiers from their daze and dividing the ranks.

Such a unit can no longer continue to fight, let alone any elite! (To be continued.) )
