Chapter XXXVIII
"Why don't we go back and get Captain Inoue back?" There are devils who mention yì. In the end, he deserved to be a dead friend, and when he saw the lieutenant's ugly face, a Cao Chang immediately proposed this absurd construction. However, the devils around him still had expressions that should be like this, and a few people nodded their heads.
Jiro Yamaguchi's heart moved, and after a little consideration, he immediately denied the feasibility of returning. Regardless of whether Captain Inoue was captured or killed, the only role he had to do when he took people back was to give his opponent a few more battle exploits. Rather than that, it's better to act as if nothing happened.
It's normal for someone to die on the battlefield. Even if General Yoshimoto Sadachi, chief of staff of the dispatch army, wants to blame, at most he is blamed for his poor protection, and it would be better to give a demotion than to run back and die now, right?
After understanding the situation in front of him, Jiro Yamaguchi sighed helplessly, "Open the way!" "It's still too close to the battlefield, maybe the Chinese army will kill me at some point, so it's right to retreat a little farther away.
On the road, there were constantly escaped devils coming to converge, and slowly, Lieutenant Yamaguchi's side gathered more than one team.
Since this is the case, there is no hurry to run, Yamaguchi Jiro slowed down his escape, and finally simply stood there and did not leave. However, after that, the speed at which he received the rout also slowed down, and one by two slowly jumped out, and when nearly eighty devils gathered around him, he could no longer wait for anyone.
That's it. Although he was unwilling, seeing that there were formed troops around him, Lieutenant Yamaguchi finally felt a little comfort. In any case, his squadron was not completely annihilated, and it was too much stronger than those hard-working people in Wanjialing. At that time, there were several squadrons he knew that did not come back!
Since the people who can come are almost there, it becomes pointless to stay here any longer. Jiro Yamaguchi said he was leaving, and the machine gun squadron that he had been calling for a long time finally arrived.
Captain Sato took Lieutenant Yamaguchi's hand and came up to pay for it, "I'm sorry, brother! Brother, when I ate breakfast, there seemed to be a problem with the roast beef I ate, and I was dizzy and weak after pulling it three times in the morning. I really didn't mean to be late. Hey? Brother, are you ......, and you have been ambushed by the people? β
Your Excellency Captain finally saw that something was wrong with the Yamaguchi squadron, a squadron of nearly two hundred people, and this team in front of him seemed to be less than a hundred, right? Seeing these soldiers with blank eyes and weak limbs, could it be that they have suffered defeat?
At the thought that the Yamaguchi squadron might have suffered defeat because of their lack of timely support, Captain Sato didn't mention the uncomfortable feeling in his heart. There are several relatives in the Yamaguchi brigade, but now none of these people can be seen, so they can't all hang up, right?
"Yamaguchi-kun, what about the rest of your troops?"
"They all gave their lives for jihad. Keitaro seems to have become a god. β
Keitaro Sato is the cousin of Captain Sato. While Lieutenant Yamaguchi was fighting with the Chinese soldiers with his sword, Teitaro was stabbed to death by two national soldiers right under his nose. Now when it comes to this person, Lieutenant Yamaguchi is quite ashamed. The family handed over his cousin to him, but he failed to protect the family's life.
"Yaga!" Captain Sato's face turned blue with anger, "Yamaguchi-kun, our two squadrons are together, and then we will fight to the death with the Shina people!" We must destroy the hateful Shina people and avenge Keitaro and the imperial officers and soldiers who died gloriously! β
"Sato-kun, please don't get excited!" Jiro Yamaguchi hugged the impulsive Sato, "Our opponent this time is very strong, and I am afraid that you and I are not their opponents!" As for your radio station, I'm going to report to the brigade, to the wing! β
Asking for reinforcements is one thing, but in fact, Lieutenant Yamaguchi's main thing is to report the death of Inoue to the wing commander. That guy is a member of the staff of the dispatch army, so he can tell the captain of the sΓΉ joint first so that Dazuo can prepare in advance.
As expected, as soon as he heard that Inoue had died, the co-captain was immediately shocked, and scolded Jiro Yamaguchi in the telegram. However, His Excellency Osa also said that Captain Inoue sacrificed his life for the glory of the Holy War, and asked Lieutenant Yamaguchi to report some advanced materials, so that he could evaluate the model worker after the death of Inoue and the other man.
The wing captain expressed his stance on the death of Inoue Jio, and as for the captain's side, he directly ordered the Yamaguchi squadron and Sato squadron to defend in place and closely monitor the whereabouts of the Chinese troops. They must neither engage the enemy on a large scale nor let the enemy run away, but wait for the main force of the brigade to come and encircle and annihilate this enemy army, which has violated the prestige of the imperial army.
Now that His Excellency Shaosa has an order, Lieutenant Yamaguchi and Captain Sato certainly know what to do. The two forces immediately merged into one force, turned around and approached the battlefield. In order to prevent the enemy from leaving, they have to keep an eye on the opponent at close range.
The devil's surveillance methods really worked. Their opponent Hu Fei had already gathered troops and was preparing to retreat, but he suddenly found that the devil he had just defeated had returned, and the retreat immediately stopped.
A standard Japanese infantry squadron had one hundred and eighty men, while a standard machine gun squadron had one hundred and seventy-four. In terms of the number of personnel, a machine gun squadron and an infantry squadron are basically the same in number. In the battle just now, the Yamaguchi squadron let almost 100 people killed and scattered, and the remaining 80 people were brought together with Sato's machine gun squadron, which was a reinforced squadron of about 250 people.
Hu Fei didn't know that the devil had come to reinforcements again, all he saw was that the defeated devil had returned. The situation does not need to be understood in such detail at all, and an experienced battlefield commander is enough to judge the actual intentions of the enemy on the basis of superficial appearances. This must be the devil has found help, and they plan to get back to the field.
To put it simply, in fact, the army fights like a child fights, and the bold bully the weak and the timid. If you lose money in a fight, you will find a helper and fight back. The devil has just lost the battle, and since he dares to come back, if it doesn't happen suddenly, then he must have found a helper.
It's still the same sentence, it doesn't matter if he helps or not, he will fight first! Hu Fei knew in his heart that now he could still rely on the power of the first victory to fight to the death with the devil in one go, and it was not impossible to win. If he waits for a long time, and the sharp spirit is discharged, then he can only lead the men and horses to escape.
I raised my binoculars and observed the movements of the devil. I saw that the devils began to dig trenches and repair bunkers in the same place since they entered the sight, and they had neither the preparation to fight nor the intention of escaping, they were ready to consume? Do you really plan to polish the sharpness of our army for a long time, and then take the opportunity to pick up the cheapest? It's a beautiful idea!
"Li San is on the left, Xiong Wei is on the right, Yang Jinsheng is in the middle, and the soldiers are divided into three ways for me! Lao Tzu personally gave you the queen of the palace, let's go and beat the little devil's ass to pieces! Hu Fei gave the order to attack murderously.
