Chapter 46: Forced to retreat

Moreover, most of these wounded soldiers are soldiers of the Suzuki Brigade, and now that the fighting is so fierce, there is no way to replenish the soldiers in a short period of time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although his lungs were about to explode, Seiichi Suzuki was sad to find that there was nothing he could do to destroy the hospital and kill all the wounded soldiers in this force,。。

The second brigade is now less than 400 people, and it is a little powerless to deal with tomorrow's battle, where can it be divided to pursue them.

In desperation, Suzuki became the only survivor who could take him to the battlefield, a hospital nurse like a frightened bird, and hurriedly withdrew to the city.

The thought that since the beginning of the war, the Imperial Japanese Army had been marching all the way, a thousand miles a day, and now it was repeatedly eaten under the hands of the same army, Suzuki Seiichi felt that this was a great irony.

After this battle, the 13th Infantry Wing would be a disgrace to the Imperial Army.

After Yoshio Nagano learned the news that the field hospital had been destroyed and all the wounded soldiers had been killed, his face was immediately gloomy as water, and the entire headquarters fell into a dead silence.

But unexpectedly, in addition to his gloomy and scary face, Yoshio Nagano did not shout and curse this time as he had done several times before.

It may be that Yoshio Nagano has become numb, and in the short three days of attacking Jianping County, Yoshio Nagano has experienced more defeats than he has experienced in the decades since he joined the army.

"Gentlemen, we must destroy the opposing Chinese army, and then use their heads to pay tribute to the souls of the Imperial warriors!"

In the end, Yoshio Nagano silently looked at Li Han in the direction where they were, and said coldly.

"Boom! ......! ”

The rumbling smoke rose from the city of Jianping County, and as soon as the distant sky turned white, the devils began to attack.

It's just that Li Han's side has been prepared for a long time, and he suffered such a big loss yesterday, with the character of the little devil who will be revenged, it is strange not to retaliate.

The devil seems to have learned the lesson of yesterday and knows that the opponent has built almost the entire Jianping county into a battlefield, so this time the devil hit all the artillery fire and carried out a covering shelling of all the suspicious large buildings.

In addition, the planes invited to help, and the smoke and dust kicked up by the explosion almost blocked out the sunlight.

The devil's practice did compress Li Han's living space, and reduced his own casualties, and a large number of hidden fortifications built by Li Han before the war were destroyed by the devil's artillery fire.

However, this also slowed down their own advance, and the consumption of ammunition also increased rapidly.

In this case, Li Han also had to order the troops to enter the few larger fortifications that were still left, and fought a tough battle with the county town of Devils.

Li Han personally ran a heavy machine gun to shoot at the devils, and the soldiers in front of the position used grenades and 38 rifles in their hands to deal a heavy blow to the attacking devils, stubbornly blocking the devils' attacks.

The soldiers of the fourth battalion and the brothers of the Northeast Army, who came to support them from two directions, have completely eliminated their fear of the Japanese army in the past after several days of fierce fighting.

Not to mention that all of them are the elite of a hundred battles, but each soldier exudes an aura of iron and blood, and can calmly face the attack of the Japanese army, which can be seen from the fact that the soldiers on the battlefield can fight the elite of the devil on an equal footing.

But the devil seems to have taken the wrong medicine today, and he keeps attacking, and a wave of charging devils is beaten down, and then the next round rushes up. There was no time to drink saliva in the middle interval, and just like that, the devil's infantry rushed up wave after wave.

At the same time, the devil's artillery was not idle, mortars and grenadiers did not stop firing this shell at our position, forcing our machine gunners to change positions almost every time they finished firing a magazine. Many machine guns and machine gunners were destroyed by the devil's artillery fire before they could move.

Several mountain artillery and infantry guns were also ploughing Li Han's fortifications over and over again, and the number of casualties among our soldiers also skyrocketed under the blows of devil artillery.

Speaking of the madness of the devil's fight, Li Han also has half of the credit. Who told him to let Wang Dazhu pick the wounded soldiers of the devil.

Who dares to guarantee that they will not be injured on the battlefield, the surviving devil soldiers are afraid that if they are injured one day, the enemy will also do a trick on themselves, and their fate may not be much better than that of their colleagues last night. Therefore, for dangerous elements like Li Han who specialize in fighting wounded soldiers, the devils feel that it is better to eliminate them as soon as possible.

It is said that Wang Dazhu faithfully sent more than 500 wounded devil soldiers back to his hometown, although the devils suffered heavy losses at once, but there were no wounded soldiers and hospitals, and the remaining devils were not only determined to take revenge.

And without a doctor, there is basically no way to survive unless the wounded soldiers return to the rear, so the little devil can be said to be ruined.

The devil's attack was still fierce, but Li Han's troops were firmly nailed to the position as if they had taken root, braving the devil's bullets and bullets, and inflicting heavy damage on the little devil with the weapons in their hands.

Such a white-hot battle lasted from sunrise to sunset, and both China and Japan suffered heavy losses, until it was completely dark, and the devils reluctantly stopped the attack.

Seeing that the devil finally stopped attacking, Li Han also let out a long breath, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Because he was worried in his heart that if the devils continued to fight at this offensive intensity, they would really be unable to stop them with their remaining hundreds of people and broken fortifications.

By the time the battle had been fought, the number of troops defending the city had been sharply reduced from 1,600 before the war to about 400, and many of them were wounded.

However, although the casualties were huge, it also dealt a major blow to the Japanese puppet army, and successfully dragged them in the area of Jianping County for four or five days, which has exceeded the task given to him by Tang Yulin.

Li Han looked at the originally noisy city, but now it is full of corpses from both China and Japan, and his heart kept sighing.

In the past few days of defensive operations, Li Han racked his brains to find ways to reduce the casualties, but in the end, the casualties of the troops were still very large, and in just four days, many brothers who were once familiar with him will never be seen again.

Fortunately, several company commanders under Li Han survived the brutal battle, and more than half of the troops of the two companies supported by Dong Futing have been killed or wounded, among which the commander of the Shanhu company was also seriously injured and is still in the hospital for rescue, and the remaining troops were reduced to a company, led by Zhao Gang.

The heaviest losses were Gao Jian's volunteers, three of his company commanders were seriously wounded, one was killed, and two were killed, and the troops were all reduced to a company, and Gao Jian was automatically demoted to company commander.

Although the sacrifice was a little bigger, Li Han felt that the sacrifice he made was worthwhile, according to the development of history, the devils had already hit Chengde at this time, but they were still blocked under Jianping City, and they had not even arrived at Dong Futing's land.

Li Han only hoped that with the buffer during this time, the headquarters would be able to adjust its troops in time according to the battle situation on the front line and actively defend against the attacks of devils.

Even if the fight to the end is still inevitable to the end of defeat, it is necessary to beat the little devils now and let them know that the Chinese are not easy to mess with.

If the Japanese army occupies every big city in China, it will lose tens of millions of people, and there are so many cities in China, if the little imp wants to launch an attack, he may have to weigh the gains and losses carefully.

Just like the Battle of the Great Wall soon after, if it weren't for the fact that our army had beaten the devils around the Great Wall, they wouldn't have honestly stopped outside the Great Wall for five or six years.

It's a pity that Li Han's wish is good, but now it is very cruel, as soon as he finished the battle with the little devil, someone came to report that Dong Futing sent someone over to inform them that their main force had been defeated, and Chaoyang Road was about to be lost, so Li Han would find an opportunity to retreat to Chengde, and Jianping County would not have to defend it.

Li Han was taken aback, how could Jianping County still be in his hands, and Chaoyang Dao, which was in the rear, was lost first.

After asking, I learned that just today, Major General Kuroki Sadachi, who had not waited for Yoshio Nagano's good news, began to make new moves.

Although I can't figure out why the more than 2,000 elite imperial troops and the puppet army of 5,000 people can't take a small Jianping county town for a long time, Nagano Yoshishin's side has not been able to open the situation, which has seriously affected the plan of Shady Sadachi.

Kuroki Sadachi knew through the division headquarters that the progress of the other Japanese troops was rapid, and the fastest was Chifeng City, which had already been taken, and was preparing to launch an attack on Chengde.

And his troops are still blocked hundreds of miles away from Chengde City, if this continues, how can he hold his head up if he gathers with these colleagues in the future, no matter what, such a result is unbearable for Kuroki Sadachi.

The matter of attacking the Shina army could not be delayed, this was the common idea of all the officers and men of the Kuroki Brigade, so Kuroki Sadachi led the 33rd Wing and more than 5,000 troops directly under the brigade to bypass Jianping County and directly attack the Chaoyang Province area.

At the same time, Kuroki Sadachi also gave Nagano Yoshishin a death order, ordering him to deal with the Chinese defenders in Kenhei within two days, otherwise, Nagano Yoshio should disembowelment himself to thank His Majesty the Emperor.

Although Yoshio Nagano was unable to take Jianping County for a long time, on the side of Chaoyang Road, he could not block the attack of more than 5,000 elite Japanese troops.

In this attack on Chaoyang Road, Kuroki Sada, as soon as he came up, dispatched a large number of planes and tanks, and hundreds of artillery pieces of various types.

The Chaoyang Road side has already been overwhelmed by a large army, but there is still only one brigade of Dong Futing guarding it, how can the 107th Brigade, which is only equipped with light weapons and a few small-caliber artillery, block the all-out attack of the Japanese army armed to the teeth.

In just one day, the 107th Brigade lost Chaoyang Road, but fortunately, Dong Futing remembered that Li Han had given him an adjutant knife, and told Li Han the news of the retreat of our army, so as to avoid the risk of being attacked by the devils in front and back.

Not only was the 107th Brigade severely damaged, but even Dong Futing himself was seriously injured, if it weren't for the strength of his guards and soldiers, even Dong Futing himself might have fallen in.

Hearing that the situation is like this, Li Han can't say anything except sighing, Dong Futing is about to be killed by the devil.

I just don't know what the big guys like the chief and deputy commanders think, how they command, where all the troops in their hands have gone, and how they fight like this.
