Section 4 Bloody Battle in the Jungle VII
A sharp whistling fell from the sky, and the roar of the engine was shelved by the sound of the explosion: a swing of the tail deftly pulled up the nose of the plane and flew away. , qВ5, CoМ// Make a turn in the distance, and then pounce fiercely.
Seeing these planes, Watanabe was angry and didn't fight anywhere, and Terauchi Iida promised to airdrop supplies to them, but the sky above this battlefield was the world of the expeditionary force, and the airdrop operation became a disaster, and the transport aircraft fleet under the protection of more than 20 fighters was attacked by more than 40 Chinese planes, not only lost more than a dozen planes, but only a few transport planes dropped supplies, and these materials were scattered within a radius of dozens of miles, and only a few troops in urgent need of replenishment got very few.
After this heavy replenishment, Watanabe never received any replenishment, and the figure soaring above the battlefield remained.
"Report, report" Watanabe turned around, and said something. The bloodied officer stumbled and straightened up in front of Watanabe, Watanabe's heart was stunned, the officer gasped, and supported the rock next to him with his hand, and the staff officer next to him hurriedly went up to help him, so what. The officer pushed the staff officer away and looked up at Watanabe: "Herb Daisa sent me to ask for reinforcements." ”
Watanabe's eyes darkened, and the officer's undisguised plea already indicated that the situation in the wing was on the verge of crisis, and the officer had already been wounded in two places. His shoulders were haphazardly bandaged, and his head was bandaged.
"The wing has been broken through, there is no strength to plug the gap, all the forces have been put in, Captain Wumu has died, Captain Minji has died, and there are only more than 1,300 people left in the wing now." The officer's words were hurried and desperate.
But Watanabe was even more desperate in his heart, among the three wings of the division, "the 3rd Wing is a wing transferred from the standing division, and it has always been the main force of the division and regiment, and the sharpest sharp knife, but this time in the Lashio operation, this sharp knife was broken. In the attack on Papani Hill "the wing was dealt a heavy blow, and in the subsequent attack on the city of Lashio" the wing suffered even greater losses, and one of the captains was killed. Numerous losses were made among officers below the squadron. It is for this reason that it is also possible. In the retreat, Watanabe did not choose to let go, and the United served as a striker.
"Eight grids!" Watanabe walked up to the officer and raised his hand and slapped him twice, and the officer straightened up and replied loudly, "Hello! ”
"Imperial samurai must not lose confidence at any time" Watanabe stared sternly at the officer, who struggled to stand firm: "Go back and tell Herb." Without reinforcements, the spirit of bushido must be fully utilized. Use the spirit of bushido to defeat the people of China! Do you understand! ”
"Hello!" Jun An saluted Watanabe with high spirits, then turned to leave, and the officers around him looked at his departing back wordlessly.
"Your Excellency" beg for something. "Chief of Staff Takashi came in, Watanabe looked at the green slimy thing he handed over, two days ago, the division and regiment ran out of food, began to dig wild vegetables to survive, in order to avoid poisoning, some wounded who lost their combat effectiveness voluntarily tasted vegetables, and many wounded died of poisoning.
This green and mushy thing tasted bitter and had an inexplicable smell, which under normal conditions would not even be eaten by pigs, but now it was the food that sustained the entire division in battle.
Watanabe took it and swallowed it three times, although these things were worse than pig food, but they were not easy to come by, and the wounded braved the artillery fire to gather in the jungle.
"Your Excellency, do you want to ask General Iida to urge Tanaka to pay a quick bow," Takajin cautiously suggested.
Watanabe shook his head, Iida Shojiro had already rushed to Tanaka Shinichi's headquarters to personally supervise the battle, and the entire Burmese army was desperately trying to rescue them. But they detoured too far to be reinforced. It wasn't a day or two, and the only one who could save them now was themselves, and they had to hold out until reinforcements arrived.
"Order Ota to move closer to me and abandon the breakout operation from the Quzha River Valley" Watanabe finally reluctantly decided on the intention of the Chinese generals to shrink the troops: "Order the Herb Wing to shrink the front. ”
The stubborn resistance of the Japanese army caused a lot of trouble for the attacking squadron, but this was also expected by them, and two divisions were poisoned into the encirclement. This battle of annihilation made the generals at all levels of the squadron extremely excited, up to Sun Liren and Huang Botao. Liao Yaoxiang and Chen Mingren below.
Watanabe is now very difficult to shrink and adjust, and the squadron is biting their respective targets. Huang Botao was the first to perceive the Japanese army's intentions, and he immediately ordered Chen Mingren to leave a brigade to hold the Quzha River valley, and the main force to attack the Japanese army, and ordered Xia Yanglin's 10th Division to strengthen the offensive and be sure to cut into the depth of the Japanese army, while he himself supervised the new 53rd Division to storm on.
Xia Yanglin was severely criticized by Zhuang Jihua not long ago, and Zhuang Jihua was very dissatisfied with his actions. It was believed that he had been delayed too much time on Mount Papani, which led to the slow progress of the attack on Ota's division. After being criticized, Xia Yanglin was very angry. In his anger, he drove the Rong 10th Division to attack frantically, facing the Japanese Tanuma Brigade and Yoshimura Engineer Wing retreating step by step, and still maintained the integrity of the battle line despite heavy losses.
"Concentrate artillery fire on me!" Xia Yanglin was dissatisfied with the fact that he had never been able to open up the situation and break into the depth of the Japanese army, and the tenacity of the Japanese army on the opposite side aroused his aggressive nature, and he pointed to the map: "Give me this piece to flatten." ”
"Boom! Rumble! "The cannonballs that covered the sky and the sun fell in the jungle, and after a flash of fire, the smoke rose into the air, and the earth with dirt and branches mixed with flesh and blood flew into the sky, and the earth, which had been covered with dense green, was now bare and blackened by the smoke. Yi Xunshu is a fine notch mixed with different body clams
The shallow trenches were blown up, and the shells reflected craters of various sizes in the damp earth. In the artillery fire, the figures flickered, and the Japanese soldiers struggled to toss and turn in the artillery fire, dodging from the sky.
"Blow the trumpet!" Xia Yanglin looked at the watch on his wrist, and there were still thirty seconds left before the scheduled time. Without hesitation, he ordered the death squad to attack.
A loud charge sounded, and hundreds of daredevils jumped from a hidden place a hundred meters away and crossed the short hundred meters like a gust of wind, and the shelling continued. The explosion continued, and the soldiers who rushed to the front were knocked twice by the shock wave, but just as they were about to rush into the artillery fire, the shelling stopped abruptly as if the brakes had been pulled.
"Good! Give the artillerymen a credit". Xia Yanglin's hanging heart immediately fell into his stomach, and what made him feel especially satisfied was that the daredevils did not hesitate in the face of the artillery fire that was about to rush.
"Heart.". Eddie, the U.S. military liaison officer beside him, slammed his chest into a cross, his eyes wide. I looked at everything in front of me in disbelief.
Xia Yanglin squinted at Eddie, he was still quite satisfied with this liaison officer, Eddie did not easily interfere with his command after he arrived at his honorary tenth division, but Ai was not idle, almost Xia Yanglin was there, he followed there, and this time Xia Yanglin also followed him to the front.
A dozen Japanese soldiers rushed out of the corner. The leading officer waved his command knife and killed the flank of the death squad, but the main force of the death squad did not stop and continued to attack the Japanese in depth, but the soldiers on the flank stopped and began to shoot at the Japanese army, but neither side dodged, so they stood still and shot at each other.
The 39 semi-automatic rifle spewed flames, and with the crisp sound of the 38 rifle, more than a dozen devils were quickly killed. "Boom!" A black shadow jumped out of the mud pit, followed by a loud explosion, followed by five or six more figures rushing out of the crater or crawling out, and the explosions came and went. The pace of the death squad assault slowed down.
"Blow the trumpet! Trumpet! Don't stop! Keep moving! Keep moving! Xia Yanglin was so anxious that he slapped the rock with his hand, the devils on the position have now completely lost their organization, and the artillery fire is developing in depth to the Japanese army, it is a good time to attack, the death squad should continue to attack, leaving the remnants of the devils to the support detachment.
The six trumpeters sounded the trumpet at the same time, and the slightly paused figure of the death squad continued to move rapidly, and the follow-up support detachment also rushed to the Japanese position, and a small number of people began to press the remnants of the enemy in all corners of the position, and the main force followed the death squad to rush into the second line of the Japanese army's position. Xia Yanglin's breakthrough was successful, the 22nd Division fell into chaos, and Ota was forced to draw troops from the 85th Wing to plug the gap, and at the same time ordered the troops to move closer to the 56th Division.
The first domino fell, and the whole hand immediately changed.
Huang Botao keenly grasped the slightest confusion in the adjustment of the Japanese army, and handed over the regiment and guard regiment directly under the general to the new 50: division commander Xiang Qianren, who was personally led by Xiang Qianren to insert it from the junction of the Tanihara Brigade and the Sakimoto Brigade.
As soon as the pressure of Chen Mingren's new 64th Division was light, he immediately launched a counterattack, and his courage was greater than that of Liao Yaoxiang. Liao Yaoxiang left more or less a brigade, he only left the division guard battalion and the battalion directly under him, plus a regiment, which he led to stay in the Quzha River valley, and the rest of the troops were all put into the attack.
The fierce battle was pushed to ** again.
In the jungle, the sound of high-pitched gunfire continued, and the soldiers on both sides forgot to die and fought repeatedly.
The Japanese soldiers knew that there was no hope of survival, and in desperation, the ferocity of human nature broke out, and the wounded became the severed human bombers, the isolated soldiers. Groups of three or five attacked the squadron everywhere in the jungle.
When the bullets ran out, he took his bayonet and rushed to the rain of bullets of the expeditionary force. Hold back the expeditionary force with the last of its strength.
Ota was desperate, just one day; The situation on the battlefield has changed greatly, the squadron has penetrated into the depth of the division, the entire defensive deployment of the division has been completely disrupted, gunfire has sounded around the division headquarters, and the shouts of Chinese soldiers have been clearly heard.
The roar of engines could be heard in the sky. The roar was so loud that the sound of gunfire could not be drowned out all around. Ota looked at the sky with a glimmer of hope.
Through the smoke of gunpowder, dozens of planes flew over the jungle in the sky, and the red black spots on their wings were clearly visible. Ota was pleasantly surprised, but then a series of curses flew out of his mouth.
The plane paid no heede to the situation below, and flew west through the jungle in the smoke of artillery fire. Anxious, Ota did not realize that half of the planes were transport planes, and in his opinion, these planes should have come to support him, not to bomb Lashio.
A large number of Japanese planes flew over Lashio, the air defense sirens in Lashio sounded for a long time, and even Zhuang Jihua and Stilwell ran out of the command headquarters, looking at the sudden enemy planes in the sky, and a series of national curses flew out of Stilwell's mouth.
Before he could finish scolding, the planes flew past Lashio and continued westward, baffling the expeditionary generals in the city.
