Chapter 44: Crazy Attack
Noda Hiroki Shaozo was already hopeless about reinforcements, and he decided to lead his subordinates to break through! Shao Zuo finally checked the soldiers under his command, and after counting the number of people, Shao Zuo's mood that had just cheered up because he decided to break through was suddenly a lot lower. When he came out of the airport, he brought out a total of nearly 1,300 soldiers of the Imperial Army, and in just half a day, there were only 466 people left in his 15th brigade, and more than 800 people were reduced in one day!
This number is terrible, Shao Zuo's heart is like a big stone, heavy, why is it so uncomfortable. If it weren't for this damn river beach, if it weren't for those damn planes, the Noda Brigade would never have killed or injured so many people!
One moment complaining about the bad terrain of the river beach, the other complaining that the quality of the pilots is too low, and the other complaining that the Chinese on the other side are too cunning, complaining and complaining, Noda Shaosa is about to become an angry little daughter-in-law. Fortunately, Shaozuo's quality is still relatively high, and after complaining for less than ten minutes, he immediately regained his spirits! Although Shao Zuo hesitated and complained angrily for a short time, another class of Japanese soldiers went to the shrine, Shao Zuo didn't have time to regret it, he had already regretted it too many times today. As the saying goes: you don't feel itchy if you have more lice. Shao Zuo regrets it a lot, and he doesn't feel how uncomfortable it is to regret it.
Since he wants to attack, he is actually breaking through, and since Shao Zuo has been influenced by the country's folklore for many years, he will already find a step for himself. If he wants to attack, of course, Shaozo must gather his own troops. Fortunately, on the edge of the river beach, there was really a flat land that was not too big, but it was enough for him to gather his troops. Luckily, this place is now unoccupied!
Although there was no one, there were more than a dozen corpses of Imperial soldiers lying in that clearing, and it can be seen from the death of these corpses that they were shot to death, not by falling to death or some other way, which proves that there is no ambush in that area! Shao Zuo suddenly thought of a question, since he had this good land, why didn't he go earlier? After thinking about it for a while, Shao Zuo came up with the correct answer: earlier, there were too many people in his brigade, and that place couldn't stand! The dozen or so dead soldiers must have discovered that place and wanted to hide there, but they were killed by the Chinese.
The soldiers of the 15th Brigade were already numb from today's misfortune and torture, and they just mechanically fought back, waiting for these bullets or shells to fall on them one by one. Now listening to Shaozuo's order to gather over there, the soldiers immediately cheered up, everyone has been together for so long, what kind of temper Shaozuo has, who doesn't know the big guy? Now notify the assembly, that is, you want to break through with the big guys! The soldiers of the Noda Brigade were warriors, and they would rather die on the way to the charge than die on this unfortunate river beach! What's more, if there is hope of survival, who wants to stay and wait for death?
Noda Shaozo took the remaining 400 or so people under his command to jump up and down, carefully bypassing the various dangers under his feet, braving the bullets fired by the squadron from three sides, and quickly arrived at the place of hope that had been favored for a long time. This way, although it is not too long, only about 200 meters, but Shao Zuo's soldiers have already died a number of people, how much, Shao Zuo has no heart to carefully roll call, now every second of delay, there may be a soldier of the imperial army killed.
Shao Zuo is a real officer, even in this case, he still has to discharge the forward guard formation, many years of experience in leading troops makes it impossible for him to be like Huang Sanpao, a bandit, and rush forward when he is happy, Shao Zuo has his own code of conduct and way of using troops.
"Captain Kobayashi, you take a hundred people to open the way in front!" Shao Zuo pointed to a devil officer with a captain's epaulette next to him and gave the order. Captain Kobayashi bowed his head and ran forward, "Lieutenant Ogawa, you ......" Noda Shaosa was about to send another devil officer beside him, "Boom! An explosion interrupted Shao Zuo's words, Shao Zuo quickly lowered his head to avoid it, looked up in the direction of Captain Kobayashi, and saw that there was no one standing in the position where Captain Kobayashi ran just now, and there was a large group of soldiers running with Captain Kobayashi just now.
Captain Kobayashi, who was ordered to open the way, had already gone to the shrine with a dozen imperial soldiers around him to enjoy the blessings. Shao Zuo looked at the pile of newly added corpses on the ground, and couldn't tell how he felt. "Lieutenant Ogawa, you go and take the place of Captain Kobayashi!" Noda Shosa ordered the lieutenant officer beside him in an unquestioning tone. Lieutenant Ogawa bowed his head, "Hi! With a sigh, he trotted to the front with his command knife. Captain Yamada, you take a hundred people to break off! ”
After all the arrangements were made for the front, back, left and right, Noda Shaosa raised his sword into the air, "Forward!" A large group of grizzled little devils lowered their heads and began to rush forward. This time, there was no heavy artillery cover, and the carts of the transport squadron could have been carried a little, but these things were now in those traps on the river beach, and the transports of the transport squadron had now all picked up their rifles and turned into infantry. As for the heavy machine guns of the machine gun squadron, although those things are powerful, they are too inconvenient to carry, and the devils can't run away with them, there is no way, they have to throw it away.
Fortunately, there are still a lot of light machine guns in the Noda brigade, and with these light machine guns to open the way, Noda Shaosa still firmly believes that his troops can rush out!
In order to show respect for the bloody courage of the devils, Brigade Commander Gao ordered all the artillery fire of the whole brigade to smash into the middle of this group of devils, and the order to the artillery battalion commander was to shoot out the shells!
Even though they got a lot of high-end goods from Chief Hu, the independent brigade didn't have much ammunition in stock, after all, they were out for guerrilla warfare, so how much baggage and materials could they bring? After fighting for such an old day, there are not many shells or something, and there are not many left. Gao Quan's order, Battalion Commander Fan immediately cheered up, and personally operated the battle defense gun and began to fire, since the brigade seat wants us to fight hard, then strive to hit every cannon accurately!
Anti-aircraft guns, mortars, and grenadiers opened fire at the same time, light and heavy machine guns all fired, and the two regiments that pressed in front also began to fire fiercely. In order to annihilate this group of devils as soon as possible, Gao Quan sent Sun Yuanqing's spy battalion to the front, and now there is only one guard company left in his troops, and there is a scout platoon by his side at any time.
The devils are really fierce, facing the bullets like raindrops, and they rush forward while shooting. fell down a row, and another row came up, and a steady stream of fierce and fearless rush forward. There were even devils who were in a hurry, and they actually rushed into the crowd of our army with a grenade pulling the fire. Gao Quan looked at it, this guy actually forgot to learn from our hero who sacrificed himself to bomb the bunker? How can that work? With a crisp gunshot, Brigade Commander Gao, who had long been unable to help his itchy hands, finally made a move, "Boom!" With a bang, the devil's daredevils were shot and exploded during the charge.
