Chapter 5: Erosion (II)

Hirano Ichiro bowed his head lightly and said, "So, how many troops do you think there are still in the Shina Army in Baoshan City?" ”

Squadron Leader Kono replied, "Judging from the dense firepower of the Shina Army and the strength of the decisive counterattack, their strength will not be less than two hundred, and at most three hundred!" ”

"Less than three hundred?" Hirano Ichiro pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Kono-kun, if you attack at any cost, how many casualties will you have to pay to clear the Shina army in the city?" ”

"At least ......," Squadron Leader Kono pondered for a moment, and then replied, "At least one more brigade will be casualties!" ”

"Yaga!" Ichiro Hirano changed color slightly, and reprimanded, "Kono-kun, don't you think it's a little alarmist? ”

Squadron Leader Kono laughed, and then said: "Sir, in the narrow lanes, the large army cannot be deployed at all, and the Chinese army has retreated to the core of the main street, even if the imperial army has invested the entire wing to launch a strong attack, there are only one or two squads in direct contact with the Chinese army, and they will not be able to give full play to the advantage of troops at all." ”

Hirano Ichiro said disapprerovingly: "The Imperial Army can use artillery to blow up the main street in Pingbaoshan Castle!" ”

Squadron Leader Kono replied in a deep voice: "Sir, the Chinese army has built a group of permanent fortifications relying on several masonry compounds, and although the small-caliber curved guns and grenadiers of the imperial army can shoot at close range, they cannot pose a substantial threat to these fortifications, and the heavy artillery of the large diameter cannot enter the city, and firing outside the city is limited by the city walls, so it is difficult to accurately hit the target." ”

Squadron Leader Matsui suddenly said: "If the Imperial Army has large construction machinery, it can clear the broken walls at the gap overnight, and then transport the heavy artillery into the city, so that the fortifications of the Chinese army are not vulnerable at all, but unfortunately, we do not have such large construction machinery, if we clean it up manually, I am afraid that it will not be possible to do it in a short time." ”

Ichiro Hirano's facial muscles twitched twice, and then he said in a cruel voice: "In this case, you can only use chemical weapons!" ”

…………

In Baoshan City, the Yao Battalion Headquarters.

It was another dead and silent night, and under the dim horse lamp, the medical soldiers were cleaning Yao Changqing's wounds.

Yue Weihan and Cao Xinglong were like two javelins, pestle straight at the head of Yao Changqing's bed, Yao Changqing's injury was very serious, and a gap more than half a foot long was opened horizontally in the lower abdomen, the only thing to be thankful for was that he did not break his intestines, otherwise with the poor medical conditions in the city, it would be impossible to save Yao Changqing's surname.

Yao Changqing looked in pain, but he endured it and didn't say anything.

In order to divert Yao Changqing's attention, Yue Weihan pretended to be relaxed and said: "Yingza, the little devil's attack has been repelled by the brothers, according to the current situation, it will definitely not be a problem for us to hold on for another half a month, just wait for the commander's department to order a counterattack, we can give the little devil a center to bloom, hehe." ”

Of course, Yue Weihan is talking nonsense, the decline of [***] in the Battle of Songhu is absolutely irreversible, although the advance of the army front is slightly slow, but once they gain a firm foothold, it is basically impossible for [***] to recapture the position, so the Yao camp that is alone in Baoshan will never wait for [***]'s counterattack!

"Dalong already told me just now." Yao Changqing bowed his head lightly and said, "Loyalty, you fought well, better than me." ”

"Camp, look at what you said, how can I compare with you?" Yue Weihan immediately said modestly, "I just took advantage of the little devil's arrogance and carelessness to set a trap for them, hehe." ”

Yao Changqing waved his hand weakly, and said, "But you can't be careless, don't be careful of the night attack of the little devil." ”

Yue Weihan nodded and said, "The camp reminds me, but I have already placed several secret posts around the camp, if the little devil really dares to touch it at night, he will keep them coming and going." ”

"Then I'll be relieved." Yao Changqing seemed to be a little tired, and closed his eyelids again after speaking.

Yue Weihan and Cao Xinglong immediately withdrew from the room, grabbed a few benches in the command center and put them together in a row, and slept indiscriminately, and when it was about to dawn, Yue Weihan was suddenly awakened by the screaming sound of a cannonball, and Cao Xinglong, who was lying next to Yue Weihan, also suddenly turned over and sat up.

"Hey, that's not right." Cao Xinglong listened to it for a while, and then said in confusion, "It seems to be a grenade fired by a Type 92 infantry gun, but it doesn't look like it, it's strange......"

Cao Xinglong's voice fell, and Chi Chengfeng's thunderous voice suddenly sounded outside the headquarters: "His grandmother, is the little devil also poor?" Why are you hitting all the squibs, what the hell!? ”

Yue Weihanton seemed to realize something, turned over sharply and sat up and rushed out of the door as fast as he could, and when he looked closely, he saw that two shells had fallen in the courtyard, and a black-brown liquid splashed out of the bullet body, and these liquids quickly turned into light brown vapor after splashing, and then quickly spread around......

"Dog, what kind of is this?" A soldier took two steps forward curiously, trying to take a look at the rarity.

"Stop, don't go over!" Yue Weihan was taken aback for a moment, and immediately shouted, "This is a little devil's poison gas bomb!" Cover everyone's mouth and nose with wet towels, right away! ”

"Cao Xinglong, let the brothers move to the tunnel immediately, and don't forget to block the tunnel entrance with a wet quilt!"

"Chi Chengfeng, what the hell are you doing in a daze? It's mustard, it's poisonous, and you'll die if you inhale it! ”

Yue Weihan gave orders in a row, and at the same time tilted the military kettle as fast as possible, wet the towel wrapped around his wrist with the water in the kettle, and then quickly covered the wet towel on his face, after doing all this, Yue Weihan felt a little relieved, mustard gas is an erosive poison, and a small amount of inhalation can be fatal, but this thing will be hydrolyzed into non-toxic chemical components when exposed to water.

Yue Weihan's yelling woke up the soldiers of the guard platoon, and immediately turned on the kettle, moistened the towel with water, and then scrambled to cover his face, unfortunately two soldiers were too close to the gas bomb, and the reaction was also slower, when Yue Weihan reminded them, they had already inhaled an overdose of poison gas, and they fell to the ground and began to convulse.

Chi Chengfeng had never learned the little devil's poison gas bomb, and he was originally a little suspicious, but after seeing this scene, he was immediately frightened into a white sweat, and quickly covered his mouth and nose with a wet towel, and then rushed into the backyard and hid in the tunnel.

Yue Weihan flew out of the headquarters and rushed to the military camp in the nearby compound, but his heart was already hanging.

The command and guard platoon here are not many casualties due to Yue Weihan's timely reminder, but the situation in the other barracks is not so optimistic, after all, most of the soldiers are illiterate people who can't read a few words, unless they have suffered the loss of military gas bombs before, otherwise it is impossible to make a correct response in time!

At this moment, Yue Weihan had only one thought in his mind, could it be that this was the legendary butterfly effect?

According to the history of the war, the little devil does not seem to have used poison gas bombs in the battle for Baoshan, could it be said that his arrival has changed history? At this moment, Yue Weihan could only pray in his heart, praying that the little devil's gas bomb would not be too accurate, if other garrison compounds also fell directly into the courtyard like the command headquarters, it would be a big trouble!
