Chapter 65: Bloody 103rd Division!
Although Joyama was recaptured under the death-and-death battle of the 9th and 7th companies, the prospects of the entire 103rd Division's defense line were still at the most critical juncture.
At this time, the commander of the 103rd Division, He Zhizhong, and the chief of staff, Wang Yujiao, abandoned the positions that should have been held by their own command, and fled in the direction of Hankou with dozens of guards, lost contact with the 103rd Division, and escaped from the battle. It left a mark of shame in the glorious history of the 103rd Division's War of Resistance.
The command and operational responsibility of the entire 103rd Division completely fell on the deputy division commander Dai Zhiqi!
Faced with the situation that the weapons and equipment were seriously inferior to the army, Dai Zhiqi had no choice but to adopt the last method that was not a solution:
Let the enemy enter the position, and then force the army to fight a decisive battle with yourself!
This is the most tragic and helpless solution.
The carefully built position was forced to be abandoned, and the advantage of the defenders was completely thrown away, Dai Zhiqi had to let the Yue army and himself strangle together, and then use bayonets and human lives to protect the position from being lost to the Yue army!
618th Battalion, 1st Regiment.
"Stop shooting!"
"Stop shooting!"
The same order reached the ears of every soldier, and the sound of gunfire stopped at once.
"Let the Oriental people in!" This was the order of the commander of the 1st Battalion, Major Chen Shaopei: "Get on the bayonet!" ”
At the sound of "brushing", the brothers attached bayonets to their guns, picked up sapper shovels, and held grenades!
The sudden stop of the gunfire made Yue Jun a little dazed.
After a moment's hesitation, the army began to charge in formation.
The Chinese soldiers on the position stood still, and behind them was the flag of the 103rd Division of the National Revolutionary Army, and the blue sky and the red sky representing the country!
The Yue army entered the position, and when they saw this group of Chinese soldiers who were fearless and fearless, they were completely at a loss.
Chen Shaopei held the rifle in his hand, and then roared:
"Brothers, don't be a bad seed, fight!"
"Kill!"
Screams rang out from the top of the hill and a tsunami, and these Chinese warriors, who had forgotten their lives and deaths, swept away like a violent wind towards the army!
The bayonet represents the determination of the [***] people!
The fighting skills of the brothers of the 103rd Division are not as good as those of the Yue Army, and their fighting skills are not as good as those of the Yue Army. But there is one thing they say they will never understand and learn:
When the national disaster comes, build a great wall of flesh and blood with your own life!
They roared and screamed, desperately pounced on one enemy after another, bleeding from their bodies, but the fire in their hearts would not be extinguished by the bloodshed.
Chen Shaopei was entangled by the three Yue soldiers, but he did not have any fear, tried his best to block and fight, deftly dodged the bayonets of the Yue army again and again, and handed the bayonet in his hand forward again and again.
However, with one enemy and three enemies, the disparity in power is too great.
At this time, in the face of the bayonet viciously stabbed by the opposing army, Chen Shaopei did not dodge, but faced the bayonet.
The bayonet pierced deep into his chest, but at the same moment, the bayonet in Chen Shaopei's hand also sank into the enemy's chest.
Blood for blood, fight for life!
Another bayonet pierced Chen Shaopei's right rib, Chen Shaopei roared wildly, pulled out the rifle with the bayonet in his chest, grabbed the bayonet with both hands, slammed it hard, and smashed the butt of the gun on the head of Yue Jun.
"Battalion commander!"
In the midst of the shouts, several brothers rushed forward and stabbed the remaining two soldiers to death, but their battalion commander was no longer good!
Chen Shaopei had no regrets, he looked at his brothers and said the last thing he said in this world:
"We are soldiers, sacrificing our lives for the country; Die a well-deserved death, be magnificent! ”
Chen Shaopei, major, commander of the 1st Battalion of the 618th Regiment of the 309th Brigade of the 103rd Division of the National Revolutionary Army, died in the defense of Jiangyin Fortress.
"We are soldiers, sacrificing our lives for the country; Die a well-deserved death, be magnificent! ”
This sentence left by Chen Shaopei inspired all the soldiers of the 1st Battalion to kill the enemy with blood. They used the situation of white-knuckle warfare, and used the method of filling in one life after another, to beat back the rushing army again and again!
"1 battalion, 1 battalion, why hasn't 1 battalion been connected yet!" Dai Zhiqi roared angrily.
The phone of the 1st Battalion was finally connected, but the voice on the other end of the phone was not Chen Shaopei's, which Dai Zhiqi was familiar with.
"Deputy seat, I am Li Zhongchun, the commander of the 2nd battalion, and Battalion Commander Chen has been martyred! From the morning to the present, the 1st Battalion has fought eleven white-knuckle battles, and most of the soldiers of the battalion have been martyred. I was ordered to lead a company of brethren to reinforce the 1st Battalion! ”
"Li Zhongchun, you stay on the position of the 1st battalion and stab me with a bayonet!" The bayonet was stabbed and bitten with teeth! Teeth are broken and smashed with fists! Stick to my position, and don't take a step back! ”
"Yes, don't take a step back!"
In less than 20 minutes, Dai Zhiqi, who was worried about the war, picked up the phone again, but this time it was not Li Zhongchun who answered the phone, but Li Yichang attached to the 618 regiment:
"Deputy seat, I'm Li Yichang, Li Zhongchun was seriously injured, and I personally commanded the battle!"
Dai Zhiqi's nose was sour, but then he regained the majesty of a soldier: "Li Yichang, hold on, resist me, lose your position, I will shoot you together!" ”
"Yes, I lost my position, I shot myself myself!"
At this time, the phone fell on the table, and Dai Zhiqi hurriedly put his ear close to the microphone, where there was the sound of bayonet "clanging" and Li Yichang's roar:
"Brothers, kill, kill! Don't embarrass us Guizhou people! ”
Just a few minutes later, Li Yichang's voice suddenly disappeared, and then an unfamiliar voice reached Dai Zhiqi's ears:
"Li Tuan is seriously injured! I am Gao Fei of the 26th Division of the Sichuan Army, and now I will temporarily command here! ”
With that, the phone was hung up.
Dai Zhiqi looked at the phone in a daze, suddenly sat down, covered his face with his hands, and after a while, tears fell drop by drop
In just one day, Lieutenant Colonel Li Yichang and Major Li Zhongchun, commander of the 2nd Battalion attached to the 618th Regiment, were seriously wounded in the fierce battle, and Major Chen Shaopei, commander of the 1st Battalion, and Major Liu Songsheng, commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 613th Regiment, were martyred.
The losses are too great, the losses are just too great.
The commanders above the front-line battalion were almost all wiped out! Now commanding the battle at the forefront is actually a small company commander of the Sichuan army, Gao Fei!
The blood of the soldiers stained the position red, and the loyal souls of the soldiers made the mountains and rivers weep.
Even though senior officers like He Zhizhong, commander of the 103rd Division, and Wang Yujiao, chief of staff, disregarded the safety of the front-line soldiers and fled from the battle, the remaining soldiers are all real middle-aged people!
In the face of foreign aggression, they were fearless, and they fought bloodily!
