Chapter 923: The Battle of Shadow Pearl Mountain (6)
The battle of Waist Slope began at dawn, and it was already past nine o'clock, and the battle had been going on for nearly six hours.
There is a pattern in battles, that is, the side with fewer troops is depleted particularly quickly in order to cope with attacks from all directions.
The ammunition of the Yamazaki brigade was running out, and if it weren't for the mixed brigade giving them the news that they were breaking through to the southeast, then what Yamazaki Hirakawa was thinking about was not whether they could break out of the encirclement, but how many bullets would be left for the self-determination of the remaining personnel.
And now, in order to grasp this last straw, Yamazaki Hirakawa concentrated all his firepower and began a surprise attack to the southeast.
The grenadiers screamed and smashed the grenadiers into the defending positions to the southeast, and all the crooked machine guns stopped firing back in other directions, but poured down to the southeast like a raging storm.
In Gui Jun's thoughts, the Japanese army had only two choices, either to attack upwards and occupy the top of the mountain to wait for backup, or to break through to the bottom of the mountain, they really did not expect that the Japanese army would exert force in the southeast direction.
As a result, the firepower of the Gui army in the southeast direction was suppressed in an instant, and then the Japanese troops of the Yamazaki brigade attacked the southeast direction like crazy.
Although the Gui army could not figure out what the Japanese army's intention was to rush to the southeast, even if it rushed there, it could only temporarily get rid of the attack of the national army.
However, when they saw that the Japanese troops were in a posture of not hitting the south wall and not looking back, they had already given up resistance in other directions, so the fire from the other three directions began to chase the fast-moving Japanese soldiers.
In a short period of time, bullets flew everywhere, and the desperate Japanese soldiers fell to the ground one after another and never got up, but the rest still rushed to the southeast like moths throwing fire.
Although they paid more casualties in order to break through the siege, in the end, the remaining forces still broke through a hole in the southeast direction, and rushed out with the corpses of the national soldiers on the position.
The Gui army in the other three directions only thought at this time, could it be that there were Japanese reinforcements in that direction?
The trumpets sounded, and the Gui troops in other directions, under the leadership of junior officers, also shrank in a southeasterly direction.
Listening to the gunfire that was getting closer and closer, Tu Chengxiong finally gave the order to go out, and the Japanese soldiers guarding the entrance of the nine-room cave rushed out.
In the midst of the rocks, the Japanese special attack team members rushed towards the place where the gunfire was most dense with skillful tactical movements.
At this time, the leather boots on his feet had already stepped on a high hill, and the Yamazaki Hirakawa was only nearly 100 meters away from the nine rooms, and he saw his reinforcements appear in his field of vision as if they were popping up in the ground.
It's the elite special attack team of the Imperial Army! Yamazaki Hirakawa couldn't help but admire.
Those who have not experienced the desperate situation will never be able to experience the excitement of that time, because those who have not experienced it are destined to be only spectators and not participants.
"Long live the Emperor!" Yamazaki Hirakawa was already raising his arms and shouting, he wanted to boost his morale.
And so his soldiers screamed too.
But at this time, Yamazaki Hirakawa suddenly saw a person standing up behind his reinforcements, although a hundred meters is not far but it is by no means close, but Yamazaki Hirakawa still saw clearly that the person's military uniform is the gray color of the Chinese army, no! This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the person has a red flag as bright as blood in his hand!
Yamazaki Hirakawa saw the red flag in that person's hand brush the ground and fell!
Then, he heard a chaotic sound of "tom, tom, tom" more than 100 meters southeast of him, and almost at the same time, a "sizzle" scream slid through the dome of the sky, and the explosion of "boom boom" sounded instantly, and Yamazaki Hirakawa was stunned to see that his reinforcements were drowned in the storm of smoke and dust, and no one could see it!
It all happened so fast, really only in an instant.
Hiragawa Yamazaki was stupid at this moment, and all the Japanese soldiers who saw this scene were also stupid!
The grenadiers, the toms, the screams, those are all treasures of our family! Why did you run away and blow up our people?!
But this round of shooting is not over, Yamazaki Hirakawa saw that there were eight rounds of such shooting in less than half a minute!
Eight rounds, that tommy Yamazaki Hirakawa can know that there are at least twenty grenadiers firing in a salvo in each round, and the killing radius of a grenade is 10 meters, how many projectiles exploded on the heads of his 100 or so reinforcements, does this still need to be counted? Does that even count?!
In this half minute, Yamazaki Hirakawa watched dumbfoundedly, and his soldiers watched dumbfoundedly, and they even saw two more people fall from the top of the explosion called Lion Rock, and that place was the top marksman of the Imperial Japanese Army!
Was it really a grenade from the Japanese Empire that the Chinese army fired?
Can the shrapnel of that grenade really fly that high? Blow up all the top shooters on the rocks of dozens of meters?!
However, the answer soon came out, no, the two top shooters were not blown down by a grenade, but were shot down!
Because a minute later, Yamazaki Hirakawa proved it with his own jade fall.
Two bullets from the mountain rock hit him in the head at the same time.
When the soldier beside him looked down at him, he saw two more bullet holes in his forehead, these two bullet holes were very easy to count, and they were not twisted together like the pieces of grenades, one shot with two holes, two shots with four holes, Yamazaki Shaosa was already dead and couldn't die anymore!
At the same time, the soldiers of Yamazaki Hirakawa also discovered an incredible situation, Yamazaki Shaosa was killed by the Imperial Army's 38 Dagai!
You must know that although their Yamazaki Brigade was temporarily formed by the Ninth Mixed Brigade from various units in order to rescue the Sixth Division, all of them were soldiers of the Third Division of the 11th Army of the Chinese Garrison Army of the Imperial Japanese Army, and they had also experienced countless battles since they arrived in China.
Naturally, they were able to distinguish the difference between the bullet holes of the 38 large cover bullets and the medium formal rifles used by the Chinese army after hitting the human body.
If the Chinese army's Zhongzheng rifle hits Yamazaki Shaoza's head, the bullet will be similar after entering the human body, not to mention flying sideways, and it will never be the same size as the two guns and four holes in front of him.
You Chinese say that our Imperial Japanese Army is a bandit, but aren't you robbers?
You blew up our reinforcements with our grenadiers, you killed our officers with our rifles, and the remnants of the Japanese soldiers went crazy. What is the reason?!
The smoke of the explosion in front of them has been exhausted, and the hundreds of reinforcements seem to be just a flash in the pan, and the remnants of the Yamazaki Brigade are still seeing the craggy rocks, and there is no more earthy yellow figure between the rocks, yes, no, not a single one!
At this time, the gunfire from the Lion Rock did not stop, a gunshot must have killed a Japanese soldier by the bullets of the 38 big cover, in their southeast, the Chinese army under the cover of light machine guns has attacked, in their south and north and west Chinese troops have also rushed, and the shouts of Chinese soldiers can be clearly heard.
The remnants of the Japanese officers and soldiers were completely desperate!
It has been 12 years since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression began on September 18, 1931, and this scene occurred on a certain day in January 1942:
Nearly 100 Japanese soldiers who had run out of ammunition and food began to shoot at each other!
But after they had killed most of their own soldiers, they ran out of bullets, so they stabbed each other with bayonets instead!
In their war history, it is said that the soldiers of their Daben Empire were ashamed to be captured by the Chinese army, and in the war history of the Chinese army, it is said that a group of executioners with blood on their hands began to cut themselves to each other in order to avoid the fate of annihilation!
Success and defeat, this is even more true between two countries and two peoples, although the win is quite heavy, but, fortunately, we China won, but, in the end, we won!!
