Chapter 576: Life and Death Resistance

A life-and-death battle

Seeing the questioning look on the Chief of Staff's face, the Wing Commander continued

"Shaochuan Jun, according to our intelligence, the total strength of the Eighth Route Army gathered around Baishan County is only more than 20,000 people. ωωω.χiΝniеpο.СΟΜ And according to my observations during today's daytime battle, the total strength of the Eighth Route Army attacking our army from the east, west, and south sides of Baishan County is definitely more than 15,000 people, that is to say, the total strength of the Eighth Route Army surrounding Baishan County is at most more than 5,000 people left, and the troops of the Eighth Route Army blocking us are only more than 2,000 people at most. Therefore, the chief of staff does not need to worry too much at all, we will definitely be able to complete the tasks assigned by His Excellency the division commander."

"Hey, Your Excellency Wing Commander, if the Eighth Route Army troops blocking in front of us are really only more than 2,000 people. I believe that with our more than 2,000 well-equipped and powerful units of the Imperial Japanese Army, we will be able to easily defeat the Eighth Route Army standing in front of us and open the line of the Eighth Route Army against our army." Under the explanation of the wing commander, the nervous heart of the wing chief of staff along the way finally relaxed, and the company said confidently

More than half an hour passed quickly, and in the midst of this half-hour rapid march, the well-equipped Japanese troops, unexpectedly, walked a distance of almost three kilometers. And just when these little devils, menacing, were ready to continue their rapid march. In the dark night, the iron wall composed of thousands of anti-Japanese armed forces stood in front of them and blocked their way to break through

A dense machine-gun strafing sound broke the silence of the entire night sky, and in front of the Japanese avant-garde squadron, on a mountain beam less than 50 meters apart, a crossfire network composed of more than a dozen dense tongues of fire and a large number of rifle bullets shrouded more than 100 little devils in an instant

Poor more than 100 little devils, after more than half an hour of rapid marching, almost everyone was physically and mentally exhausted, and they faced the sudden dense rain of bullets, and before they could react from the shock, they were beaten into a hornet's nest one after another, and unwillingly fell into a pool of blood, turning into a bloody corpse

And as soon as he heard the gunshots, the wing captain Chi Dui Dazuo, who was closely behind the vanguard squadron, also jumped off his war horse at the first time. Then, under the cover of the guards around him, he quickly hid in the bushes on both sides of the road

Just when the wing commander's face was confused by the short and rapid machine-gun fire that he had just suddenly remembered. A captain of the Shaozo Brigade ran over panting and reported: "Report to Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the avant-garde squadron was stubbornly resisted by the Eighth Route Army, and the whole army was wiped out, and none of them survived."

"Nani, the avant-garde squadron is gone. How is it possible, in less than two minutes of firepower, more than a hundred elite soldiers of the Imperial Army will be wiped out by the whole army, I want to retaliate, I must completely annihilate the Eighth Route Army troops in front of us"

After a brief shock, the face of the wing captain was immediately enveloped by a serious and murderous look. Facing the side, the chief of staff of the wing, whose face was once again revealing but dark, ordered loudly

"Order the troops, assemble all the grenadiers of the entire wing, and shell the positions of the Eighth Route Army. The entire infantry wing, with the squadron as a unit, under the cover of all the heavy firepower of the entire wing, took turns to launch a continuous group charge against the position of the Eighth Route Army, in a word, it must be within ten minutes. On the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army, open a breakthrough and immediately begin to execute"

"Hai, Your Excellency Wing Commander" Facing the report of the captain of Shaozo, the chief of staff once again showed a worried look on his face, although he was very worried about his future. ωωω.χiΝniеpο.СΟΜ However, in the face of the murderous co-captain who could kill at any time, he had to quickly take the order

In less than a few minutes, hundreds of anti-Japanese fighters on the blocking position were celebrating the achievement of a squadron that had just been annihilated by the Japanese army. The Japanese army's overwhelming retaliatory shelling followed

Although, at this moment, the Japanese lost all their heavy artillery, even all large-caliber mortars. However, for the Japanese squads, the grenadiers equipped as standard have been greatly strengthened

A field infantry wing, after being specially reinforced by Lieutenant General Sato. More than 100 grenadiers fired one grenade after another at the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army, which was celebrating in front of them, although in terms of explosive power and the power of artillery shells, the grenades dedicated to grenadiers were far inferior to large-caliber howitzer shells and mortar shells. However, the accurate shooting of the grenadiers and the density of the grenades still caused huge casualties to the defending troops on the position at the first time

In the midst of one violent explosion after another, the soldiers who were still in high spirits just now, because of the victory they had just gone, and who were full of hope for the future, instantly fell into a pool of blood in the air, and under the blow of flying shrapnel, they turned into bloody corpses

Finally, in a loud explosion, the Japanese shelling ended. Just now there are more than 500 people in the front line with high morale. At this moment, it has been filled with thick gunsmoke. As for the incomplete trenches, there are only more than 200 people left

And just when the more than two hundred surviving soldiers, who had never experienced such heavy artillery fire, were still in a daze. In front of the blocking position, more than 100 light and heavy machine guns arranged by the Japanese army and an overwhelming network of firepower once again completely enveloped the position that was filled with gunsmoke

"Kill to" more than a hundred little devils, taking advantage of the Eighth Route Army on the position, when they have not yet reacted from the shock. He raised the rifle with a bayonet in his hand. Like a yellow wave, it quickly rushed towards the position where the smoke was filled with gunsmoke and there was no movement

"Brothers, the little devil is coming, block fire machine gunner, fire immediately, give me a hard shot" Finally, in the dense gunfire, an armed leader who was sticking to the forward position, reacted from the shock, and exclaimed loudly at the soldiers who were still in a daze beside him

"Brothers, give me a hard beat" Immediately, one by one, the soldiers who reacted from the shock raised their weapons in their hands, and at the risk of being killed at any time, pulled the trigger of the weapons in their hands

Bullets with hatred, between the positions of the enemy and us, you come and go, although the thousands of soldiers blocked, to the more than 100 little devils in charge of the charge, caused a large number of casualties, but in front of the position, under the intensive strafing of more than 100 light and heavy machine guns of the Japanese army, coupled with the accurate marksmanship of the Japanese ordinary infantry and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who held the position, the casualty data increased several times

The charge of the first group of little devils was repulsed, and the second team of little devils immediately raised the rifles in their hands and launched a new round of charge. The second brigade is exhausted, and the third brigade continues to make up for it

As for the ammunition on the body, when the bullets were finished, they used grenades, and when the grenades ran out, they used the bayonets in their hands to engage in the fiercest and cruel hand-to-hand combat with the little devil in front of them

Under the command of the wing commander Chi Dusk Dazuo, the battle that should have been resolved in ten minutes was fought for twenty minutes, and there was no clarity in the past

In the twenty-minute battle, the red-eyed little devil had already launched five squadron-sized attacks, and each attack became more fierce than the last. At the same time, in the course of 20 minutes, in the face of the frantic strafing of more than 100 light and heavy machine guns of the Japanese army, coupled with the flexible grenadier attacks of the Japanese army.

The anti-Japanese forces that held their positions were also fully replenished, and after twenty minutes of fierce fighting, four brigades, a full 2,000 soldiers, at this moment, plus all the light and serious wounded, there were less than 500 people left

And under the illumination of the piles of bonfires ignited by artillery fire on the battlefield, the tragic scene in front of the position was impressively reflected in everyone's eyes, the corpses of hundreds of little devil soldiers, and the corpses of nearly 1,000 anti-Japanese armed soldiers who died in front of the position because of hand-to-hand combat, wearing various clothes. Layered on top of each other, they were placed in various postures in an area of 200 to more than 20 meters in front of the position

And looking at the positions held by the soldiers, the corpses of a soldier who had not had time to be transported away and died by a bullet were also stacked in the trenches in layers. Under the influence of a corpse, before the battle began, the originally wide trench appeared at this moment, and there was not even a place to stay

"Baga, order the troops to continue charging me. Tell all the soldiers who are still able to continue fighting that behind us, the lives of more than 10,000 soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army, Lieutenant General Sato, are in our hands. Tonight's battle was unsuccessful, so Chengren continued to attack until he captured the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army" Seeing the corpse of the Eighth Route Army in front of him, the corpse of a soldier of the Imperial Army, Wing Commander Chi Dui Dazuo, did not hesitate and continued to give the order to attack, "Battalion Commander Zhao, the little devil is simply crazy and has died so many people, and he is still charging, or else, we will ask Deputy Commander Yang for help, and let the Deputy Commander provide us with some artillery support to relieve the pressure of the brothers on the front line" In the forward command headquarters of the defender position. Battalion Commander Zhao Guanghua, the temporary commander-in-chief of nearly 10,000 anti-Japanese forces, silently watched the bloody battlefield in front of him, and another leader next to him reminded

"Brothers, all the big bosses have been fighting against Japan for a long time, although we have been fighting against Japan and fighting little devils. However, we are all wearing the skin of a bandit, in the seriousness of the common people, we are bandits Now our opportunity has come, as long as we complete this task, we can take off this skin, join the Eighth Route Army, and become a hero in the eyes of the people."

"Commander Liu of the Eighth Route Army has entrusted us with such an important task, because he can afford to look up to us, and if we go to ask for help now, we will let the Eighth Route Army think of us More importantly, Commander Liu of the Eighth Route Army assured us that all the brothers who participated in tonight's battle and died in battle will be buried according to the treatment of the Eighth Route Army, brothers, leaders. In a word, I, Zhao Guanghua, don't know if I will ask Deputy Commander Yang for help, but at least I won't ask for help now If anyone has any objections, you can call Deputy Commander Yang yourself, I, Zhao Guanghua, will never say a word more" Zhao Guanghua said categorically and negatively

"Battalion Commander Zhao, don't say it, it's a big deal, I'll give you more than 100 catties here today, let's just fight the troops, and we will definitely not let go of a little devil rushing over from our position Next, let my brothers on Hutou Mountain go up to the heroes, Battalion Commander Zhao Guanghua, brother, I will go first, I hope you take care" As soon as Zhao Guanghua's words were finished, a big man from the Northeast with a murderous face picked up the two shell guns he carried with him, and rushed out of the headquarters with a murderous face

"Don't rob me, the next one is my brothers in Jinniu Mountain, Battalion Commander Zhao, please help me bring a word to Commander Liu Hua, just say that I obey him." If I die in battle, I hope to be able to wear the uniform of the Eighth Route Army and be buried," another Northeast man said with a resolute face.......

In the command headquarters, everyone's faces showed a look of farewell, of course, on the forward position, it had already been completely shrouded in the dense sound of gunfire under the Japanese army's round after round of charges, and the soldiers withstood the rain of bullets fired by the Japanese army, and shot accurate bullets into the body of the little devil. Throw the smoke-emitting grenades into the group of little devils

"Brothers, the commander of the Eighth Route Army said that all the brothers who participated in the battle today are already heroic soldiers of the Eighth Route Army. Our brothers have been bandits all their lives, and today they can be heroic soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, in this life, they are worth it, brothers, rush down with me, fight with the little devils under the mountain, kill one is enough, kill a pair to earn one, kill the devil"

A huge roar sounded, suppressed by the Japanese machine gun fire, it was really impossible to raise their heads, and the hundreds of soldiers who fought back saw the nearly 100 little devils rushing in front of them, without any hesitation, and immediately under the leadership of the leader, they raised the rifles that had already been loaded with bayonets in their hands, or held grenades with green smoke, and rushed into the group of devils as if they were dead.

In a dense burst of explosions and the shouts of soldiers, more than a hundred little devils quickly disappeared and disappeared into this world. However, the more than 300 soldiers who had just charged, at this moment, there were less than 100 left, and all of them were wounded

Of course, when the remnants of less than 100 people supported each other back to their positions. Another brigade, led by a leader, took over the defensive task of the front and rear eye positions and continued to block the attack of the little devils

Behind the forward position where the artillery was full of fire, Yang Jingyu, the deputy commander of an artillery battalion, held in his hand, and also looked at the extremely tragic forward position in front of him with a solemn face, and standing beside Yang Jingyu was the commander of the entire mortar battalion

"Deputy commander, just let the bubble open fire, so many heroes, just fall into the muzzle of the little devil, I promise, only use one artillery company, and knock out the little devil's heavy machine gun firepower" Watching the groups of anti-Japanese armed soldiers fall under the muzzle of the little devil. The battalion commander had a painful look on his face and begged at the deputy commander beside him

"Correspondent, immediately contact the commander and ask the Japanese breakthrough troops whether they are all out of the city" Regarding the request of the artillery battalion commander next to him, Yang Jingyu, who was also extremely heavy in his heart because of the death of a large number of soldiers. Although I would like to agree to the artillery battalion commander's request that is not too much at all. However, thinking of the whole battle situation, Yang Jingyu was still ruthless, shook his head, and ordered to the correspondent behind him, just like that, ten minutes later, an exciting news that made Yang Jingyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief finally reached everyone's ears

"Report to Commander Yang, the latest news came from the forward scouts that the Japanese breakout troops have all left the city. At the same time, the three main regiments led by Commander Zhou Baozhong also reached the total position. The commander asked our troops to fire the first shot of the final counteroffensive battle," the correspondent reported with an excited face

"Okay, great, finally waited for this time, Battalion Commander Zhang, it's up to you to see your mortar battalion next. Now I order, the artillery battalion immediately set up positions, prepare for firing All the troops in the forward position, and prepare for the countercharge Comrades, I, Yang Jingyu, have come to avenge the artillery battalion for you, and open fire" Deputy Commander Yang Jingyu's clenched hands finally relaxed. Facing the artillery battalion commander who was already waiting impatiently, he ordered loudly.

"Deputy Commander Yang, you can rest assured, artillery battalion, guarantee to complete the task...."In the face of Deputy Commander Yang Jingyu's order, the face of the commander of the artillery battalion immediately showed a look of eagerness, and he assured with confidence
