Liu Jinkui is an ordinary veteran of the national army, who enlisted in the army in the 22nd year of the Republic of China, and has been in the army for five years now. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He has participated in dozens of battles, large and small, and now he has grown into a second lieutenant in the National Revolutionary Army and served as a platoon commander in the Japanese Dispatch Army.

In this attack on Tokyo, Liu Jinkui and his company were honorably selected.

After the landing battle for Tokyo began, Liu Jinkui and his infantry platoon were placed among the roundabout troops in the north of the city.

After a bloody attack without leaving chickens and dogs behind, they razed more than a dozen Japanese villages and finally reached their intended position.

&nNovel;Completed the task assigned to them by their superiors.

However, just as they were preparing to launch an attack on the city of Tokyo with a large army.

The company commander sent someone to send a military order: "Platoon Commander Liu, the company commander orders you to immediately bring people to Jinda Village in your rear to set up defenses, and you must hold this place for twelve hours no matter what." ”

"Yes, resolutely carry out the order." As an iron-blooded veteran, Liu Jinkui said without hesitation.

As soon as the heralds left, Liu Jinkui immediately gathered the whole platoon of subordinates and drove to Dajin Village, which was not far from them.

This is a small Japanese village, and when Liu Jinkui arrived with his subordinates, he understood why the company commander asked them to stick here.

Because there is a small river in the north of the village, and a stone bridge is erected on it, it goes without saying that this must be a relatively important place in the local sense.

As a platoon commander of an infantry platoon, Liu Jinkui didn't have to think about what the purpose of Shangfeng's overall deployment was, what he needed to do was to lead his subordinates to hold on to the village and prevent any possible Japanese troops from crossing their defensive lines.

The infantry regiments of the Northeast Army stationed in Japan are all Class A regiments, and the infantry platoon strength and firepower are also set up in accordance with the strength of enough to suppress the Japanese infantry squad and resist the Japanese infantry squadron.

Therefore, Liu Jinkui had six squads under him, including four for the main infantry squad, one for the artillery squad and one for the machine gun squad.

In addition to the two regular grenadier canisters and two 60mm mortars, the artillery squad is also equipped with two Bazooka rocket launchers.

The machine gun squad was equipped with six MG34 general-purpose machine guns. Together with one for each of the other four infantry squads, the number of general-purpose machine guns in this infantry platoon of Liu Jinkui reached ten.

Such a powerful firepower is extremely terrifying, not to mention, each infantry squad also has eight riflemen armed with Garand semi-automatic rifles, two chargers equipped with MP38, one bombardier, three machine gunners, a secondary shooter and an ammunition man.

Therefore, this main infantry platoon, which numbered more than 80 people, was enough to fight with a squadron or even a large group of the Japanese army in terms of combat effectiveness.

Such an infantry main platoon was a typical grassroots unit in the former Northeast Army, and basically the main force of the Northeast Army was composed in this way.

After the execution of all the Japanese in the village. Liu Jinkui left an infantry squad to serve as a guard, and the rest of the men began to build their defensive positions on the village and the creek that flowed around it.

With a loud bang, the stone bridge leading to the road in the center of the village was successfully destroyed by two demomen.

Liu Jinkui lit a cigarette, looked at the blown up stone bridge, and looked at the river again, then turned around and urged: "Brothers, work hard, the little devil will come as soon as he says." ”

A sweaty squad leader came over and said, "Platoon leader, is it that the little devil's reinforcements are coming?" Why don't you put us here? And not to attack Tokyo. ”

Liu Jinkui nodded and said, "It should be, no matter how many Japanese come, don't think about passing through their defense area, and lie down after them." Let's go back to the battle against Tokyo. ”

"Alright, let's dig the fortifications quickly." Liu Jinkui took two puffs of the cigarette in his hand, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and twisted it with his foot.

At this moment, two sharp soldiers in charge of the sentry came running briskly with their semi-automatic rifles. One of them saluted Liu Jinkui and said, "Platoon commander, the second platoon is five hundred meters away from us, and it is also digging fortifications. ”

"The second row has also been transferred?" Liu Jinkui said with a solemn face: "It seems that our whole company is going to be used to block the attack." There are a lot of little devils. ”

"You go and talk to Wang Mazi immediately, the fight will start later, we will take care of each other, if he can't stand it, give Lao Tzu a red signal flare, and Lao Tzu will send someone to reinforce him."

The spearhead took the order.

Liu Jinkui also personally picked up a shovel and began to dig trenches with his comrades.

…………

In the city of Tokyo, after learning that the eastern part of the city had been breached, Ishihara Wanji and Itagaki Seishiro quickly mobilized reinforcements to counterattack.

Wang Tiehan also threw a reserve division into battle, and the two sides engaged in a bloody battle in the east of the city, in which the already ruined Japanese buildings were destroyed twice, and many of them were razed to the ground by large-caliber artillery.

Due to the resolute resistance of the Japanese, the attack force of the Third Fleet advanced rather slowly.

On the battleship Huo Quai, an adjutant was narrating to Wang Tiehan: "Most of the Japanese buildings in the city are in ruins, which greatly hinders our tank and armored counterparts, and the infantry and Tan are in difficulty in coordination.

The Japanese fought with us house by house, alley by alley, and the divisions advanced very slowly, and they asked for advice on whether they could use poison gas bombs and white phosphorus bombs to cooperate with the attack. ”

Wang Tiehan didn't think about it and said: "These pig brains, the bloody methods of the teams outside the city have been used, what else can't be used?"

Give it to me, use as much as you can, even if it is to raze the city of Tokyo to the ground, our target is the Japanese Imperial Palace, tell them that no one is allowed to fire artillery at the Imperial Palace, and those who violate the order will be engaged in military law! Others, whatever they do. ”

"Yes, I'll let you know." The adjutant answered, and turned to leave.

With Wang Tiehan's permission, the attacking units replaced the artillery with more lethal poison gas bombs and extremely destructive white phosphorus incendiary bombs.

The Japanese were caught off guard and suffered extremely heavy losses, and the national army, wearing gas masks, took advantage of the situation to storm and greatly accelerated the speed of advance for a time.

…………

North of the city, Jindae Village.

After more than an hour of all-out excavation, Liu Jinkui finally led his subordinates to build a riverside defensive position relying on the village.

Before the officers and men of the platoon had time to rest for a while, the top soldiers in charge of the reconnaissance at the front ran back out of breath.

"Platoon commander, ghosts, devils, a lot of devils."

Liu Jinkui, who had just sat on the mound of dirt outside the trench and wanted to rest, immediately stood up when he heard this, and raised the telescope hanging around his neck to look at the sharp soldiers.

I saw that on the wilderness road about two kilometers away, a large number of devils drove in, and the distance was too far to tell how many people there were.

However, Liu Jinkui, with his many years of experience, still judged that the number of surging Japanese troops would never be less than 1,500.
