Chapter 563: Sniping in the Town (Ten Shifts)

(ps: Upload ten more at a time, it's fierce enough!) Brothers, comrades-in-arms, give some support and encouragement! Mosquitoes strive to continue tomorrow, to be motivated! )

The three reconnaissance battalions attacked from three sides, but the Japanese troops in the town felt a little helpless about one or the other. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn particular, the three reconnaissance battalions, strangely detoured to the rear to attack, which made the Japanese army even more uneasy and nervous.

Seeing the fierce gunfire from the east, south, and west, the two infantry wings deployed by the Japanese army in the town had to rush to help. Like a firefighter, he appeared on the battlefield that began to erode.

On the other hand, the 51st Army and the 77th Army, which had been prepared in advance, continued to send troops into the battlefield from the gap opened by the reconnaissance battalion. The little devils are sending reinforcements, and the offensive troops of the Fifth Theater are also sending additional troops.

It's just that compared with the number of troops of the 51st Army and the 77th Army, the number of Japanese troops at this moment is not superior at all. The crowd tactics, in this entangled battle, also began to burst out with amazing combat effectiveness.

Listening to the unfavorable news from the battlefield ahead, and the fierce gunfire that finally forced into the entrance of the town, Keisuke Fujie, who was staying in the underground headquarters, said a little distractedly: "What the hell is going on? How did they bring the troops in? ”

For the assault force that suddenly appeared from behind several positions, the Japanese army really found it incredible. It's just that they didn't know that during the rainy time, the saber detachment and Lin Tie's camouflage battalion were not as rested as other Japanese troops.

Find out the deployment of the little devils on the front line, and through encroachment, Lin Tie's camouflage battalion takes over the defense of the joint. In the eyes of the Japanese army, the area still defended by troops actually became the passage of the Eighth Route Army.

Perhaps the Japanese army could not have imagined that in such a war situation, the Eighth Route Army would dare to make such a dangerous move. After all, once the actions of Lin Tie and the others are exposed, then they will all be surrounded by the Japanese army in the town until the last man.

Fortunately, Lin Tie's camouflage battalion itself was a unit specially formed to camouflage the Japanese army. The soldiers of this battalion, in addition to being proficient in Japanese, are in the barracks of the little devils, and they will not arouse the suspicion of others at all.

In the past, the Japanese army implemented a defensive policy of tightening the outside and loosening the inside, which also provided the camouflage battalions that drilled into the defense circle of the little devils an opportunity for the center to blossom. Under their response, the defeat of the Japanese army has become an inevitable thing.

Even the persistent fighting during this period of time made the officers and men of the 16th Division also feel tired. Even though many officers motivate the soldiers to cheer up, the physical exhaustion still makes them lazy.

It was at this time that Lin Tie and others fished in troubled waters and became the last straw that broke the camel's back. The Japanese army, which was attacked by the reconnaissance battalion in a state full of energy, was still unable to prevent defeat even if they used their lives to block the attack.

Most of the heavy artillery units that were originally used as killer weapons by the Japanese army could come in handy, but they were destroyed by the mountain artillery units of the Eighth Route Army. Such a bad cry made Keisuke Fujie, who was the commander of the division, also know that he would not be able to escape again.

Knowing that the two infantry wings sent had been besieged by a large number of attacking Central Army, the chief of staff of the Japanese army, who was also full of bitterness, said with some frustration: "Your Excellency the division commander, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on until tomorrow!" ”

'Yaga, why is this happening?' We just need to hold on for one more day, and the victory will be ours! ’

Thinking of the telegram sent by the 13th Division before, Keisuke Fujie always felt that the opportunity to turn defeat into victory was in front of him. But in the blink of an eye, everything came to naught, which made his heart full of unwillingness.

But what can you do if you are not reconciled?

The two infantry wings, which served as reserves, were all dispatched. At the moment, there are still many troops in the town. But most of the soldiers in these units are technical troops, and if they serve as infantry, they are afraid that they will not last long.

Facing Keisuke Fujie, who was already in chaos, the chief of staff of the division and regiment, who was a major general, finally said: "Your Excellency, division commander, we can't hesitate any longer. While it's time for now, let's hurry up and break through!

As long as one of our divisions can successfully break through, our 16th division will be able to remain. If we don't break through, we really won't be able to go. As long as we get out, we will be able to join the 13th Division. ”

As a result, Keisuke Fujie, who heard this, finally shook his head and said, "Watanabe-kun, you go!" I am the commander of the 16th Division, and I need to bear the consequences of the defeat of the division. From now on, you're in charge of the troops! ”

'General! ’

'I've made up my mind!' Let's go! I'm going to stick with you until the end and buy you a little time. As long as I'm here, I'm sure to be able to grab their attention and buy time for the Warriors to break through, so go! ’

Perhaps it was the determination to die, and with this kind of death, the so-called loyalty to the empire was fulfilled. Keisuke Fujie, who had been a little depressed before, cheered up and roared and ordered the staff officers of the headquarters to leave.

Looking at Keisuke Fujie, who even drew his command knife, the chief of staff who proposed a breakthrough plan, was no longer reluctant. As for Keisuke Fujie's choice, in fact, the chief of staff still knows more or less.

The fall of the 16th Division will eventually require someone to bear the responsibility of the empire. It is better to be executed by order of the Empire than to die on the battlefield altogether. In that case, the empire would at least honor Keisuke Fujie as a warrior.

'Gather the forces in the town, and we'll break through from the east. Hurry up! ’

The chief of staff of the division, who quickly gave the order, gave Keisuke Fujie a military salute, and finally left the headquarters. As Chief of Staff, he needed to rebuild the 16th Division and preserve the last hope.

Breaking through on a rainy night will increase the difficulty of their breakthrough, and it will also increase the difficulty of the search force. As long as you escape from this town and the road to Lu'an, it may become a smooth one.

After all, the participating troops in the Fifth War Zone are now attracted to the town. Originally, he also hoped to wait for reinforcements to arrive and leave here relatively easily. Now, it seems, there is little hope.

The Saber Special Operations Team, lurking outside the Japanese headquarters, watched the chief of staff, who had the rank of major general on his shoulder, walk out of the underground headquarters. The saber special combat team members who led the team to carry out the beheading mission were somewhat curious.

Just when they were expecting the little devil with the rank of lieutenant general to appear, they still couldn't find their traces. Considering the task assigned this time, the captain who led the team made a series of combat gestures.

A lurking sniper who quickly breaks away from the group. The sniper's mission was to keep an eye on the Japanese major general who had left the command post. For such a goal as the general, the Saber special operations team is still very interested.

Unbeknownst to him, the chief of staff of the Japanese army, who had been targeted by death, had assembled nearly a wing of infantry from all technical arms in the town. Looking at these armed troops, the chief of staff seemed somewhat relieved.

And Keisuke Fujie, who was staying in the underground headquarters at the moment, looked at the few combat staff officers who remained, and said very calmly: "Send a farewell message to the military headquarters!" In addition, it is hoped that they will send small forces to meet our forces that may break through.

As for me, the commander of the division, I will fight with the Chinese army to the end with the heart of swearing to serve the country to the death. After sending the telegram, destroy all the important information of the headquarters and prepare for the next battle to the death! ”

'Hey! ’

As the operational staff officers and telegraph operators who stayed behind, they were also diehards of the Japanese army. Even if they never thought that one day they would die on the battlefield of China. But in the face of this order to fight to the death, they also had no choice.

When the Second Army received this farewell message, the entire command fell silent. Minoru Higashikuremiya, who was holding the telegram, sat directly on the chair. He knew what this farewell message meant.

As the commander of the Second Army, the 10th Division was destroyed, the 16th Division was decided, and the 13th Division was severely damaged. The three main divisions were lost here like this, even if he was a member of the royal family, he could not escape the accountability of the empire.

For the Japanese command to make a mess, He Zhengdao naturally had no intention of taking care of it. Seeing that the 2nd Division and the 2nd Regiment successfully captured the Japanese blocking position, He Zhengdao also said in a timely manner: "Send the 1st Regiment out as well!" ”

'What about Command?' ’

'No problem! We're safe here, we have a guard battalion on guard, there won't be any problems. Tell the first regiment that as long as the gap in the town is opened, notify the 51st Army and the 77th Army to attack through the gap. And they withdrew! ’

He Zhengdao, who threw all the troops in his hands into the offensive battle, did not know that the Japanese army had decided to break through at this moment. Looking at the gathered breakthrough troops, the chief of staff of the division also knew that he needed to mobilize before the breakthrough.

It was only as he stood in front of the assembled troops that a crisp gunshot rang out. The chief of staff of the major general, who originally thought that he could successfully lead the troops to break through, was directly pierced by a bullet in the center of his eyebrows.

'Yaga! Someone assassinated the Chief of Staff, find him out, kill them! ’

The Japanese adjutants standing next to the chief of staff looked a little angry. In front of so many troops, their command headquarters was knocked down with a single shot, which made their hearts that had been held back for a long time even more crazy.

The soldiers of the camouflaged battalion, mixed in with the assembled troops, also knew that this was an excellent opportunity. Pretending to be casual, he gently threw a melon grenade equipped by the Japanese army into the crowd of search troops.

'Ahh Yes! ’

A Japanese soldier who was searching for the advance looked at the smoking grenade at his feet, and his whole soul was frightened. It could only make an 'ah' sound, and finally it was completely drowned out by an explosion.

The camouflage battalion that was mixed in the town was also accompanied by a shot from a sniper, and started an operation to disrupt the town. Soon the town, where the shelling had stopped, began to become chaotic, and gunfire was heard everywhere in the town.

Keisuke Fujie, who was ready for a death battle, also felt a little incredulous when he heard the noisy gunshots that sounded outside the headquarters. Even if he knew that tonight was doomed, the speed of this defeat seemed to be beyond his imagination!

As he stepped out of the command headquarters, ready to see what was going on outside. The saber squad leader, who had been staring at the exit of the underground headquarters, finally made a 'slash' combat gesture.

After two gunshots, the newly appointed lieutenant general division commander collapsed with a stunned expression but relieved, becoming another target of sniping and beheading under the saber special combat team! (To be continued.) )
