Chapter 316: The Japanese Army Lost Soldiers
February 4, 1938 at 2:48 a.m.
The Japanese position collapsed on all fronts, and Hu Bagui's cavalry appeared again, and under the continuous rush, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties, collapsed, and the defeat was decided.
In despair, Hachiro Tanakami pulled out his katana and faced the soldiers who were surging from all directions, and behind him, there were less than ten people left.
"Lay down your arms, surrender or kill!"
"Eight Ga Ya Road!"
"I'm dying, and I'm still scolding!" The sound of bolts pulling rang out all around, and hundreds of black muzzles were pointed at Hachiro Tanakami and others.
"Don't move, this is a Japanese soldier, haha, we are lucky, we captured a Japanese soldier alive!" A battalion commander suddenly noticed the rank on Hachiro Tanagami's shoulder, and hurriedly shouted an order.
"Which of you speaks Japanese?"
Everyone looked at each other, the big guys were all from a hard background, even if they were literate, they had never learned Oriental dialect, and they lowered their heads one by one.
"None of them can speak Japanese?" The battalion commander asked distressedly.
"Battalion commander, what are you talking nonsense with them, just arrest people and tie them up directly."
"Yes, ****, kill so many of us, Lao Tzu will kill you......" The excited soldier rushed forward and was about to shoot.
"Kill him, kill him......"
The crowd was excited, many of them had spent time in prisoner camps, and when they saw their compatriots being killed by the Japanese, their hearts were deeper than the rivers and seas.
"Anything, anything, whatever. Don't have to clean the battlefield anymore? ”
"Dai Tuanza!" Cheng Gang separated everyone. Walked in.
"Dazuo. Co-Captain? Cheng Gang was a little surprised, the commander of this Japanese army unit was actually a Japanese army leader, and if he became a Japanese army leader, he had to be at least a wing commander.
It was a bit surprising that such a big fish was netted in this battle.
"Name, job title?" Cheng Gang walked up to Hachiro Tanakami and asked calmly in Japanese.
"Daidanza actually speaks Japanese?"
"Cut, you don't know. We are born in the Yakshas, and every one of the Yaksha people can speak Japanese, which is called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, understand? ”
"Awesome, awesome......"
"Of course, the pronoun of the group seat is estimated to be removed soon......"
"Hachiro Tanagami, Wing Commander of the 3rd Infantry Wing of the 29th Brigade of the 34th Division of the Imperial Japanese Army, with the rank of Osa, may I ask who Your Excellency is?" Hachiro Tanakami held a katana in his hand and looked at Cheng Gang nervously.
"Cheng Gang. Lieutenant Colonel of the 37th Brigade of the National Revolutionary Army! ”
"......" Hachiro Tanakami was slightly stunned, obviously he had not heard of this unit number in his intelligence. I haven't even heard of Cheng Gang.
"I forgot to tell you, I'm just an acting head of the regiment, not formal yet." Cheng Gang added, "Can you lay down your arms and surrender?" ”
"No, the soldiers of my Great Japanese Empire will not surrender." Hachiro Tanakami roared and said, "There are only Yamato warriors who died in battle, and there are no cowards who surrendered!" ”
"In that case, there's not much to say." Cheng Gang came over and knew that this was the result, if the other party was not a Japanese soldier, he would not be too lazy to talk nonsense.
"Dai Tuanza, this is a big Zuo, catch it back, it's a great achievement, and life is worth more than death."
"It's worth a lot of money." Cheng Gang scolded, "These diehards, not only is it a waste of food to be caught, but they also have to be on guard against the Japanese at all times. ”
"Yes, yes, you have a point."
"If you want to die, hurry up and die, what are you doing in a daze?"
"Won't your army execute us?"
"Execute you, don't you need money for bullets, and don't you use force to kill people?" Cheng Gang sneered, "Hurry up, solve it yourself, didn't you say that there are only Yamato warriors who died in battle, and there are no cowards who surrendered, we Chinese are the most humane, since you all want to die generously, if we stop it, wouldn't it be disrespectful to you?" ”
"Ahh Hachiro Tanakami roared at Cheng Gang, then his eyes were red, he grabbed the handle of the knife, turned around, and stabbed him in the abdomen.
"Osa......"
"It's a bit of courage." Cheng Gang was slightly compassionate, although he was an enemy, he still had to admire it, and if he was a **** officer, he might not be able to do it.
With Hachiro Udami as an example, the remaining Japanese soldiers either shot themselves or ended their lives with knives, and none of them chose to surrender.
The scene is a little shocking, and it also makes people feel terrible!
Terrible nation, terrible army!
"See, this is the Japanese soldiers, in order to enslave, in order to invade other countries, they don't even want their lives, don't you think such a nation is terrible?" Cheng Gang said.
It's terrible, the ancients, killing themselves, but what are these people for, for the distorted faith, for the so-called bushido spirit?
"We don't want to enslave and invade others, but others don't want to invade and enslave us either, so justice will triumph over evil, and no matter how powerful and terrible they are, they will fail!"
"Clean up the battlefield, bury this Hachiro Tanakami alone, and bury it here, except for the loot, his personal clothes should not be moved." Cheng Gang commanded.
Victory!
Caotou Mountain was boiling, and shouts were heard all over the mountain.
The victory at Caotou Mountain can be regarded as the first time that the Japanese army was completely annihilated on the frontal battlefield since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, and none of them missed the net, creating the No.1 in the history of the Anti-Japanese War.
Of course, the most dazzling thing among them is the tremendous effectiveness of the first joint operation of the infantry artillery cavalry.
The timing is well chosen, the commander commands well, and the soldiers fight well.
"Okay, good, very good, count the casualties, replenish the four regiments to stay and clean up the battlefield, and the rest of the troops quickly return to Taipingmen!" Leng Feng received Xie Jiyuan's call and was very happy, although it was a little later than scheduled, he finally ate this Japanese army completely.
There was jubilation in the headquarters of the National Salvation Division, which was the hardest fight of the National Salvation Division since the beginning of the war. The most beautiful battle also proved itself to the world, and the National Salvation Division is a force capable of fighting tough battles. It also showed the confidence and strength of the National Salvation Division.
At the same time. The headquarters of the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army was gloomy. Ten minutes ago, a farewell message signed by Hachiro Tanakami and Osaku was delivered to Lieutenant General Shin Fujita.
This means that the troops given to him by Hachiro Tanakami have reached the brink of life and death.
It's only been six hours, how can this be, it is an elite Japanese infantry brigade, and it is equipped with such a powerful and attacking force, in the field, it can be used as ten, how can it lose?
Fujita Shin's eyes were red. Frustrated, such a failure was unacceptable to him in any case.
"What about the cavalry wing, where is the cavalry wing?"
"Xingshan Zhongzuo reports that they have passed through the Yaohua Gate and are rapidly advancing in the direction of the fork in the road!" The adjutant said nervously.
"Bastard, waste......" Fujita kicked the briquette stove with boiling water in front of him to the ground.
"Your Excellency the division commander, don't be angry, the most important thing now is how to remedy it." Chief of Staff Tian Yuan Lixiong hurriedly persuaded him that it would be useless to get angry at this time.
"How to remedy. Can it still be remedied? ”
"As long as we can take the Taiping Gate, this branch of the army will have to make a detour back to the city. That would give us two hours less. "In these two hours, we can throw all our forces into the city and storm the defense line of the Chinese army, if we can break through the defense of the Chinese army in one fell swoop, it is the best, even if we can't do it, we can occupy a large area in the city, you say?" ”
"Yes, this is a way, if the Ninth Division cooperates together, maybe it can still settle the battle in one battle, quickly, immediately send a telegram to General Shun Hata, tell him what we think, and ask him to order the Ninth Division to cooperate and act together!" Fujita Jin seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and hurriedly ordered.
"Hay, let's go and send a telegram to Your Excellency the Commander."
After one fiasco after another, Shunroku Hata doubted whether the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army had become poor, and when he received a telegram from Fujita Susuru, he suddenly became hesitant.
Now it seems that Fujita Jin is a bit desperate, if he can't achieve his goal, the tens of thousands of soldiers of the two master regiments will be trapped in the quagmire of Nanjing.
In just two days, the two master regiments lost more than 12,000 people, and the death toll accounted for more than half.
Since the start of the Sino-Japanese war, there has never been a strange phenomenon, the battle losses of the Chinese army are actually lower than those of the Japanese side, and they are so low that it is simply too low.
"Agree to Fujita's request and order the Ninth Division to cooperate with his actions." After careful consideration, Shunroku Hata agreed to Susumu Fujita's all-or-nothing approach.
After all, the three-day deadline given by the base camp will be the third day tomorrow, and if you can't take Nanjing, then everyone will be in trouble. ’
"Hey, hey, Deputy Commander Leng, the Japanese army is storming Taipingmen like crazy, and we can't stand it......"
"If you can't stand it, you have to top it, at least give me another two hours!" Leng Feng hung up the phone directly.
"Wei Quan, call a platoon, follow me to Taipingmen!" Leng Feng grabbed an overcoat and jacket, put his sniper rifle on his back, and ordered.
"Leng Feng, stop!" Qiu Qingquan stopped Leng Feng.
"Master, at this time, I have to go to the front line, I'm worried that Lao Ju won't be able to stop it, once it's time for Taipingmen, Lao Xie and they can only make a detour back to the city, which will delay at least four hours or more." Leng Feng said.
"You're a commander, not an ordinary soldier, you went, what if there was a mistake?" Qiu Qingquan asked.
"I know that my post is not at the forefront, but at this time, only when our commanders are at the forefront can we give the officers and men the greatest courage and encouragement." The cold front is not hot-headed.
"But what about your safety?" Qiu Qingquan also knew that what Leng Feng said was not bad.
"There's no problem with my safety, besides, I'm not with a guard platoon, I'm all in my own defense zone all the way over." Leng Feng said, "It's not that you don't know my skills, the Japanese can't kill me." ”
"Don't be reckless in case of trouble, your safety is more important than a Taipingmen, it's a big deal, we'll retreat to Jiangbei now, it's not a shame." Qiu Qingquan knew that he couldn't stop him, and he might not be able to compare to Leng Feng.
Leng Feng is the spiritual symbol of the National Salvation Division in the capital, and when he went, his encouragement to the officers and soldiers was absolutely extraordinary.
