Chapter 180: God also has eyes
If the wind and snow stop suddenly at this time and someone has a bird's-eye view, then they will be surprised to find the following scene: in front of a cliff that stretches for about two thousand meters, a group of nearly 4,000 soldiers wearing khaki military uniforms and steel helmets are hugging a group of more than 300 soldiers in the same costume about a kilometer ahead, and walking on the ground, and about 100 meters west of the cluster of soldiers lying on their stomachs, nearly 1,000 soldiers in the same costume are lying next to each other on an arc with a length of about 400 meters. And to the southeast of them, there was a group of soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms, this group of soldiers surrounded forty or fifty ironclad chariots to form a defensive line with a length of about two hundred meters, and with them as the end point to extend to the northwest, almost every one hundred and fifty meters of distance, there was a group of small troops with a number of seven or eight hundred, and the number of chariots between fifty or sixty chariots was in an arc to the cliff, in the westernmost part of this camouflage arc, Two smaller troops of the same size were moving straight forward in the direction from west to east, guided by the first few soldiers - the reason why Ouyang Yun wanted to let the wolf fang lead the way in front was to avoid the tragedy of the chariot overturning. However, what he didn't expect was that after entering the battlefield where the 2nd Division and the 214th Wing exchanged fire in the morning, the wolf fangs did not find any obstacles that could hinder the advance of the chariot such as pits, but they found the remains of many dead soldiers of the 2nd Division and the remains of the chariot.
Under the snow, a corner of the bleeding camouflage uniform was exposed, and the wolf fangs leading the way were immediately attracted - carefully peeling off the snow on it, the body of a cadet was revealed. Unable to bear the chariot running over the body of the brothers who died in battle, someone reported the situation to Ouyang Yun, and at the same time asked if the remains of the brothers were collected first.
Ouyang Yun didn't expect this situation. In the morning battle, the 2nd Division suffered more than 2,000 casualties. And if you want to collect their bodies one by one, you can't finish it in half an hour. Ouyang Yun thought for a while, and said with difficulty: "Don't worry about it for now, this task should be done by the people of the second division!" As long as we can completely destroy the 33rd Division, we will be counted as having an explanation for our brothers! ”
It was a hard, cold-blooded decision, but it was also the right decision. Because of this episode, something burned in Ouyang Yun's heart, and even his next voice became fast and powerful, falling on the ears of the commanders of all directions, with a hint of metallic texture - "06, 07, you speed up a little, tell the wolf fang who leads the way, let them look farther away, don't let go of any clues!" ”
"What? Found the devil, confirmed, I need to confirm! ”
"Good! All accelerated, surrounded! ”
"08, 09, turn right directly and keep up!"
Ouyang Yun summarized the information reported from all directions, and then issued a series of orders, and a quarter of an hour later, 07 Lu took the lead in exchanging fire with the little devil, and then 08 Lu outflanked from its left flank. And as several other trainees who implemented the second-way combat plan joined the battlefield one after another, the battle suddenly became hot.
At this time, the front of the large Japanese army had already joined the forward troops. And Gan was adjusting the battle sequence, trying to organize a machine gun squad to open a gap for the Watanabe Wing, when suddenly there was an exclamation of soldiers from behind.
"Chariots!" "The chariot of the Chinese people!" "That's a lot!"
Before, when facing the tank troops of a regiment of the Second Division, the little devils were already chilled to the bones, but at this moment, they suddenly found that the tanks driven out of the vast snow seemed to have no end one after another, and many devils completely collapsed.
The second battle plan formulated by Ouyang Yun is too targeted for Gan Shigetaro's one-way breakthrough. Under the control of the commanders of all directions, the tanks in front fired artillery one after another, and among them, once the 100-millimeter-caliber shells fired almost flat by the "Mandrill" heavy tank smashed into the group of devils, it was equivalent to a human flesh crusher. At least a dozen, at most twenty, and as long as the explosion is affected, then don't think about holding the whole corpse. In order to prevent accidental injuries, Gan Qi kept the soldiers in a dense formation, and at this moment, the 33rd Division paid the price of blood for his decision.
"Alright, stop**! Grind it up, grind it! "The closer the distance, the commanders began to change the means of warfare. Several "mandrills" ran over side by side with the firing of the 38 big cover, pushing down a group of devils in a sparkling state on the foredeck, and then crushed over them with a heavy lift.
"Ahh "Mommy!" …… All kinds of miserable howls came one after another, and at least more than 400 devils were buried under the tracks of the tanks of the Cadet Army - "Fight with them!" "Soldiers, follow me!" "Your Excellency the Commander of the Protection Division!" …… Some mid- and low-ranking officers of the Japanese army reacted, and they shouted loudly, wanting to organize a counteroffensive of the troops. However, before they could assemble their team, the bullets fired by the countless Weiqing-style guns on the opposite side swept over, and the devils were put down in pieces like rice after autumn, and then they were crushed by tanks, and from beginning to end, many people failed to shoot even a bullet.
After the second combat plan is carried out to the fullest, the tanks will cooperate with the infantry to launch a sniper formation, and the armored vehicles will use their mobility to shoot and kill the devils who are trying to break through in vain, and then slowly squeeze the living space of the devils and consume their forces until the devils are squeezed into one place, and then they will be shot or bombarded in a concentrated manner.
Now, because the Japanese army broke through along the cliff to the east, and the forces were completely concentrated, there was no need for such trouble.
Ouyang Yun came to the front line, and after discovering this situation, the tight skin on his cold face finally relaxed slightly. "The infantry builds a defensive line, armored vehicles and tanks retreat in front of the infantry - guys! Avenge the brothers who died in the Second Division! ”
"Revenge! Avenge! "Kill! Kill! ”
The thunderous roar of the cadets sounded, and dozens of meters in front of them, there were frustrated devils scurrying around like headless flies, or simply lying on the ground, not daring to raise their heads. And more devils rushed up fearlessly under the command of an officer, but in the face of hundreds of disease-type general-purpose machine guns, often, they only rushed out of the body for more than ten meters, and their bodies became a hornet's nest.
The change came too quickly, and the senior commanders of the 33rd Division had not yet reacted, and the encirclement of the Cadet Army had already been formed.
Originally, the south, where there was the most promising breakthrough, had failed with the completion of the rendezvous of Routes 01, 02 and 00, and with the formation of a sniper line of chariots composed of hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles. Not only that, with the addition of the 08 and 09 Cadet Corps, the Cadet Corps had an absolute superiority in the rear of the Japanese army, and began to slowly press forward, in fact, their demise was only a matter of time.
In the vast snow curtain, thousands of bullets cross-fired, and every minute, hundreds of soldiers fell to the ground, which made Gan Qi no longer able to maintain the usual style of a general, his face was pale, his hands were holding the command knife rigidly, his eyes were dead gray, and he couldn't even say a word to boost morale.
There were still people in the 33rd Division who were unwilling, Hashimoto Dingshou suddenly jumped out, he pulled Sato Ken and Watanabe Kentaro together, and said to them with a solemn face: "Sato-kun, Watanabe-kun, I didn't expect the revenge of the Shina people to come so quickly and so crazy, it seems that it is time for us to become enlightened." Your Excellency the Division Commander must not fall here, two, let's fight to the death hand in hand! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud "boom" sounded, and about 30 meters away from them, a human bomb of Watanabe Wing was hit by a stray bullet into the explosive bag in his arms, and then turned into a rain of blood and splashed in the sky.
Feeling something warm splash on his face, Watanabe reached out and touched it, and when he raised it up to his face, it was a piece of flesh the size of a fingernail. His eyes contracted for a while, and the next moment he was full of anger, and said: "Hashimoto, what do you think, just say it, as long as you can help His Excellency the division commander get out of danger, you can let me do anything." ”
Ken Sato followed and urged: "Hashimoto, hurry up, the firepower of the people in China is too fierce, and we won't be able to hold out for long." ”
Hashimoto nodded vigorously and said, "Watanabe-kun, whether Your Excellency can escape or not depends on your team. Sato-kun, concentrate as many troops as possible, and then let them rush to the south, Watanabe-kun's troops follow, and risk the lives of all of us, and we can definitely kill a bloody road. ”
"Okay, let's get started!"
God, you should have eyes! Otherwise, why is there such a saying that someone is not as good as heaven?
Just as Ken Sato gathered a team of about 1,000 people and directed them to quietly complete the charge preparations behind Watanabe's department, the snow actually became smaller.
Hashimoto was actually able to carry out the breakout plan before the snow became smaller, but because of the cozy attitude of Tataro Gan, he missed this only opportunity worth fighting. When Hashimoto told Gan Qi about his plan, the old devil looked righteous and awe-inspiring, holding the command knife in his hand and saying, "I'm not leaving!" The fate of a soldier lies on the battlefield. Since I can't see the Imperial conquest of China while I'm alive, let me rest here and wait for that day with my loyal soul! Hashimoto, you're still young, break through! If you can live, every year today, please give me a pillar of incense! After saying this, the old devil became addicted, and bowed to him solemnly, saying, "Please! ”
At this point, the snow already has a tendency to get smaller. Seeing this, Hashimoto was so anxious that he was about to cry, and he and Sato knelt down in front of Gan and pleaded, "Your Excellency, please, let's go!" ”
Sato: "There is an old saying among the people of China, if you stay in the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood, Your Excellency, you will fulfill our loyalty!" ”
Watanabe ran from not far away, and he shouted, "Don't do anything for nothing!" The snow has become lighter, and if you don't go, you won't be able to leave. ”
"Your Excellency, I'm sorry!" Hashimoto suddenly stood up, stretched out his hand and grabbed the command knife in Gan Can's hand, and at the same time shouted to a cadre of gendarmes standing behind Gan Can: "Don't take the division commander away yet!" ”
Under the leadership of the commander of the military police, Kameda Renji, several gendarmes gritted their teeth and stepped forward, regardless of Ganji's scolding and struggle, picked him up and rushed towards the location of the Watanabe Wing.
More than 500 gendarmes swarmed up, and the group rushed to the south, and then, before they could reach the place where the Watanabe Wing was, the snowflakes suddenly became thin and bright, and the wind weakened a lot. And with the earth-shattering roar of "Capturing Ganji Jutaro Alive" from a distance of a few hundred meters, Hashimoto suddenly stopped, looked up to the sky and sighed: "God destroy my 33rd Division!" ”
