Chapter 5 The war broke out, and the students and divisions became armies
The power of gas bombs speaks for themselves. When those three shells exploded behind the soldiers of the two warring sides who were engaged in a fierce white-knuckle battle, at first, no one knew that this was actually the most evil cannonball in the world today. There, there was a regiment of the 114th Brigade of the 38th Division. They were second-line troops, and they were rushing behind the first-line troops at this time. The soldiers near the place where the shells fell, when they first heard the sound of the shells breaking through the air, were reminded by the officer, and they fell down one after another to avoid it, and after a while, they stood up and rushed forward with a shout. In front, the little devils have completely shown a tendency to rout under the pressure of the big blades of snowflakes, as long as they keep up with the strength, the victory will belong to the glorious and heroic 38th Division.
The sinful yellow smoke began to diffuse, and many of the warriors smelled a slightly sweet smell of garlic.
The most toxic thing about mustard gas is that it is incurable, so the injured person will be accompanied by a lifetime of suffering. Before the start of the war, in consideration of morale and combat factors, Zhang Zizhong only let the officers above the battalion level know the news, and asked them to consider whether to wear gas masks according to the situation on the spot. And because wearing a gas mask will affect the field of vision and seriously affect the combat effectiveness, at the beginning of the general offensive, no unit was pre-wearing a gas mask - this directly led to the large-scale poisoning and attrition of the 114th Brigade after this battle.
Li Jianke was the battalion commander of the second battalion of the regiment, and when he smelled the faint smell of garlic, he chuckled in his heart, and then instinctively shouted: "All of them are here, quickly, put on a gas mask!" Li Jianke's reaction was not unpleasant, but it was still a step late, although most of the soldiers put on gas masks in time, but the three gas bombs still caused considerable damage. Among them, several fighters close to the source of the poison gas had already had seizures, their bare skin began to blister, and it became difficult to breathe, and many of them began to kneel on the ground, coughing violently, and subconsciously grabbed their throats with both hands.
"Boom", three more violent explosions, and three more poison gas bombs, Li Jianke looked at the miserable situation of his subordinates, pressed the gas mask on his mouth and nose with one hand, and waved the big knife with one hand, shouting: "Wear a mask, hurry, rush over!" ”
With the frequent blowing of poison gas bombs, more soldiers inhaled the poison gas, and then, they were put on the ground, because the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract was burned out, many people could not bear the pain and psychological fear, and began to make hoarse screams of pain. Seeing that many people's footsteps began to become hesitant, and some people began to try in vain to take care of them because of their own friends and fellow villagers among the injured, Li Jianke was so anxious that he almost jumped to his feet and scolded, but his eyes felt astringent, sour, and the exposed skin became red and itchy, so he simply took off his mask and shouted: "It's all there, rush forward, just rush up." ”
But not many people listened to him, perhaps, they didn't want to disobey the orders of their superiors, but after inhaling mustard gas, they were already weak.
"The little devils are starting to fire gas bombs!" The temporary headquarters of the 38th Division was located, and the high-ranking officials of the 38th Division and the Cadet Army all had gloomy faces, and many people were even more indignant, eager to rush up in person and break the corpses of those devils into pieces.
"Little devils are really not human, if only we had gas bombs too!" Some people said so hatefully.
Zhang Zizhong gritted his teeth, with a stoic face, he picked up the walkie-talkie and began to call Ouyang Yun: "The Forbidden City, the Forbidden City, I am the Great Wall, please reply when you receive it." ”
Ouyang Yun quickly replied: "The Great Wall, I am the Forbidden City, I have received it, it's over." ”
"Forbidden City, the Japanese have begun to fire poison gas bombs, please destroy them with cannon fodder, over."
"Roger, done."
In the artillery position headquarters of the 38th Division, Ouyang Yun put down the walkie-talkie with a serious face. The officers around him all heard the conversation between him and Zhang Zizhong just now, and they couldn't help but look at him with indignation.
Ouyang Yun looked at the artillery commander and asked, "How many shells are there?" ”
"About eight hundred rounds."
"Shoot it, cover it!" Ouyang Yun said coldly. After speaking, he thought about it and said, "I don't know what happened to the single male of Lu Dao, haven't you found the storage point of the poison gas bomb?" ”
Ten minutes later, the rumbling cannon sounded again, Ouyang Yun walked out, opened his mouth and looked at the flickering cannon muzzle in front of him, and a thought rose in his heart: It would be nice if there were planes, at least it would be able to conduct reconnaissance to locate the artillery, if it was a helicopter, maybe those gas bombs would have been destroyed by now, right?
As a special forces in later generations, helicopters used to be one of their most borrowed weapons, remembering the scene of destroying the camp of East Turkistan elements with rockets in the past, Ouyang Yun's heart itched, and he couldn't help but think: Old man Chen is really unrighteous, if I am allowed to take a helicopter to cross, then the current student army is already the leading strong army in this world. In that case, this little devil in front of him is really not enough to drink a pot.
Just when Ouyang Yun was talking about the solo male, the soldiers of the big sword, with the support of artillery, had already broken into the village. After entering the village, watching the artillery fire consciously move forward, the single male was already sure that the artillery on the other side knew his position. So, he has always been bold, he simply let the orderlies carry him, take the banker, and command his subordinates to start from the head of the village, and sort out one household at a time.
The appearance of the gas bomb brought the most hope to the little devils, and under the supervision of the officers, perhaps by deception (they told their men that reinforcements were already on their way, and that the gas bombs were fired according to the permission of the command brought by the commander of the reinforcements), the originally loose defensive line became tight again. Originally, the soldiers of the 38th Division could replace a devil by themselves, but now, it takes a half to replace a devil, and it is when the little devils only rely on bayonets, while the soldiers of the 38th Division are swords and guns. Often, when a soldier kills a devil with a broadsword, he will insert a bayonet in his body. Then, when the devil pulled out the bayonet, his comrade's big knife would hit the devil's head, but the little devil's head had not yet been cut off, and he didn't know where a bayonet came from and stabbed his comrade down......
Compared with the officers and men of the 38th Division, who fought white-knuckle battles, the battle of the broadsword was easier. Close combat has always been the strength of special forces, originally, because of the enemy on all sides, the soldiers of the broadsword could not let go of their hands and feet, once everyone also carried a little devil sick number as a substitute for the dead ghost, now, the fierce offensive of the 38th division has greatly reduced the pressure behind them, in this case, whether it is white-knuckle combat or shooting, it has become the performance time of the broadsword soldiers. The same as the wolf's tooth, as the former Xianyi regiment and the so-called chairman's special guard, many people are born in martial arts and have a variety of methods to kill people. In the face of life-and-death battles, at this time, some people have become "Xiao Li Flying Knife", and some people are "invincible", of course, all of them also have another title: sharpshooter - a bullet absolutely destroys an enemy.
Seeing the wanton murder of the small group of troops of the single male, the small group of men and horses was completely vulnerable in front of them. The old devil on the fourth floor of Tomamidi, who had been paying attention to the situation on the entire battlefield, couldn't hold his breath. At this time, he had already joined Gao Shujiaichi, in order to avoid the invasion of artillery fire, under his leadership, with the officers and soldiers of the command center of the 108th Division as the main body, a group of more than 1,000 people were retreating in the direction of the northwest Japanese concession while fighting. Behind the large army, several horses pulled three field guns, and from time to time fired poison gas bombs.
From the moment the single male broke into the first line of defense of the little devils, the battle had lasted for more than two hours. Originally, relying on poisonous gas bombs, the fourth floor of Tomadi boasted that even if it could not successfully break through, it would at least make the 38th Division pay a heavy price. However, it turned out that he really overestimated the strength of the previous side. Not to mention that in the previous encirclement and annihilation of the broadsword, the soldiers were lost and the generals were finally unable to do so. Even now, with the help of poison gas bombs, the 38th Division has taken the full initiative and is carrying out a purposeful compression. The old devil had decided to fight to the death and not retreat, but now, he knew that the general trend of the Dao had gone, and he didn't dare to say such big things anymore.
Seeing that a large group of devils began to withdraw from Li Zhuang in an orderly manner, the broadsword warriors he saw it and hurriedly reported to the single hero: "Brigade, the little devils are going to run!" The single male asked the orderly to put himself down, leaned against the wall and looked in the direction of the fourth floor of Tomamidi and the others, and after a while, he said: "I said why cannons can't destroy gas bombs, and I feel that these devils are changing places with a cannon." He looked back and saw that in the direction where the gas bomb exploded, although the soldiers of the 38th Division wore gas masks, many soldiers still fell in pain. He didn't know that this was because mustard gas had a corrosive effect on the skin, and he thought that the gas mask was too ineffective. His eyes couldn't help but spew anger, he gritted his teeth and said resolutely: "Brothers, don't worry about the little fish and shrimp, let's follow and destroy the three field cannons as soon as possible, and we can't let him harm people anymore." ”
"Yes!"
"The first squadron, responsible for the break, the second squadron will rush with me, and the third squadron will pay attention to both sides!"
As soon as the single male finished speaking, in his field of vision, a fire suddenly rose between the three field cannons. In the firelight, several little devils were blown up and flew wildly, and then turned into a rain of blood on their stumps and fell to the ground. "Oh!" He just let out a sigh, and then another shell fell near the field artillery, this shell was more accurate than the one just now, and the fire brought by the explosion spread to the poison gas bomb on the carriage, so that a series of explosions came, and then, a pale yellow smoke dispersed. Those devils who were already lying on the ground were frightened, and they got up and ran for their lives, and several little devil officers reacted quickly, while quickly putting on the gas masks that had been prepared for a long time, and at the same time waving their command knives and slashing at the heads of those devil soldiers, as if they wanted to stop them from escaping. It's just that the name of mustard seed poison gas is too strong, those devils are frightened, where can they take care of any strict military discipline, those officers are better, but those small soldiers have completely lost the momentum of the imperial army, scattering the cannons, shouting something while cannonballing, and soon, the team of more than 1,000 people will be chaotic and collapsed.
