Chapter 411: Expulsion
The shells, in less than two minutes after the attack on the cavalry of the Chinese army, fell with a bang.
Clusters of firelight rushed up, and earth and rocks flew wildly. The shockwave flattened everything around in the smoke, leaving nothing of weeds and shrubs.
In the second round of shells falling, the charging Japanese troops rushed to the position where the shells were raging.
But they circled around a few hundred meters in diameter, not to mention a human figure, and they didn't even see a single corpse.
Seeing the soldiers in the distance wandering around and not finding the enemy, all the generals who were watching the battle were puzzled. Fujita's judgment was right, and they would have shelled it with mortars instead. But the soldiers who searched there didn't find the enemy, which was really unexpected for them.
In addition to seeing bomb craters, in the place where the craters were dense, a dry riverbed that was not even three meters wide lay there, but the depth of the riverbed was less than half a meter deep, and it was obviously not a place for Tibetans.
The sound of the cannon stopped, and there was a sudden silence around them. The Japanese could not find the enemy, and they also stopped firing their guns.
Around, in addition to the smoke that has not yet dissipated, the neighing of war horses scattered everywhere, all the living people are very strange.
The attack, which came suddenly, went simply. But they didn't even see a single figure. Although no gunfire was heard, the dead cavalry had already explained that this was a shooting.
"Yaga!"
Fujita kicked a small stone away in frustration, turned and walked towards Hatohiko Asamiya's car, ready to report.
Before he could get to the car, suddenly, the scouts on both sides fell down, making the Japanese soldiers who had just straightened up panic again, and after two gunshots, under the reprimand of the commander, he bowed down and looked for the target with a gun.
"Surround within two kilometers!!"
Gunshots. Fujita turned around abruptly and yelled.
With his roar, groups of Japanese soldiers ran and made a detour to the roughly judged position, and in less than five minutes, a large area was surrounded.
But. The Japanese troops who searched in a queue did not find a single figure until they bordered the main army.
What's going on?
All the generals were surprised. It's really kind of weird.
Fujita was a little out of breath, he kept turning his head to look around, but he didn't know where to point the blade, he had experienced a hundred battles, and for the first time there was a helplessness that he had nowhere to use his strength.
Hatohiko Asakanomiya poked his head out again and asked, "What's the situation?" ”
"Your Excellency'...... Prince"
Fujita's words had not yet fallen, when suddenly, a dense explosion sounded behind the line and on the left side. One by one, the soldiers fell silently. A miserable wail followed, and the left flank and the rear were immediately in disarray.
All the generals looked to the rear and left flank, wondering what was going on with the explosion, was it a grenade dropped by a hidden enemy?
As soon as their heads were turned and their eyes were not focused, there was a sudden explosion again on the right flank, and at the same time, in the escort wing on the right flank. The figures turned over one after another, without waiting for the smoke to dissipate. Hundreds of people fell.
"Yaga!!"
Fujita was furious, drew his command knife and gave the order to charge in that direction. At the same time, it was ordered to deploy troops and encircle that area.
But after a few minutes, all the commanders were stunned again. There the soldiers used bayonets to pull through the grass and bushes, and there was not a single figure in sight.
Where is the enemy?
This. Not to mention Fujita, even Hatohiko Asakanomiya found something wrong. He knows this elite very well, not only the quality of the individual soldiers is high, not to mention the rich combat experience, but also very brave. It's a tough troop that rushes and storms. But it is not normal to catch no trace of the enemy several times in a row.
"Shrink the troops, speed up the march and rush to Changzhou, and hand it over to the troops in Changzhou to clear it here!"
Hatohiko was faintly uneasy, and he didn't ask about the situation again but quickly ordered the march.
With the words of the flag, the wing-guarding wing, which had lost nearly half of the two wings, moved closer to the middle, and the cavalry and horse pistols at the head were all in hand, and they were ready to pull out in the order, and they didn't even care about the corpses on the ground, only carrying the wounded soldiers who were actually pierced with holes.
But just as the team was moving, suddenly, the soldiers burst out shouting and shooting in all directions.
As the gun rang out, all the commanders saw a scene, and a black shadow flew towards the periphery of the team, although they didn't know what the road was, but they could guess that it was definitely not a gift.
Sure enough, the objects fell in the blink of an eye, and the sound of explosions followed, and in the firelight, the miserable howl sounded again.
"We are surrounded !!"
Nakasa shouted.
"Yaga!!"
Lieutenant General Ryosuke Yoshizumi next to him slapped his hand back, with a crisp snap, and the fan of Changyong staggered, and half of his face immediately bulged.
"Yours is a general, and you don't lose the demeanor of a general! Panic over a little thing, how do you command the troops!? ”
"Hayi!"
Changyong's body was shaking, and one stood upright, bowing his head and not daring to move.
During Ryosuke Yoshizumi's reprimand, everyone looked at the smoke around them. Fujita shouted, "Fire within 500 meters around!" ”
As he shouted, the tom cannon rang out.
Fujita shouted again: "Please generals, get in the car, we are going to get out of here!" ”
All the generals who watched the battle calmly got into the car amid the shouting, obviously knowing that it was the best choice to leave here. They are carrying a large amount of property, and if the shells explode, they will not be distressed to death?
Fujita ordered again: "Take the wounded and march to Changzhou!" Send electricity to Changzhou and Danyang, send troops here, and clean up the battlefield here! ”
Following Fujita's order, the army quickly formed a formation, and in the smoke of gunfire in the distance, the machine guns were fired at the head, and the machine guns on the trucks were fired at the same time, and they continued to strafe, advancing towards Changzhou with the wounded, regardless of the surrounding enemy.
Liu Zhong looked carefully at the mountain bag in the distance, and saw that these goods did not return to Danyang, so he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted: "The vole will no longer return to the nest, you can dismantle the nest!" ”
Danyang, hearing the sound of gunfire, did not use Fujita to generate electricity, and there was already a large group of Japanese soldiers running in the direction where the gunfire came from. As they ran, they didn't know that they were staring at them with a pair of eyes open.
The 10th Brigade of the 9th Brigade in Danyang, which was responsible for closing the gate, quickly raised their guns at the moment of receiving the order, and in the poof, most of the running Japanese soldiers were killed before they could react.
When they were shocked to encounter an attack and wanted to lie down and fight back, there were only two or three hundred of more than 1,000 people left, and they didn't know where the attack came from.
They had just fallen down, listening to the movement next to the corpses of their companions, looking for the direction of the attack, when a cloud of blood mist floated up on the ground, and only a few people had time to shoot blindly, and a brigade was gone.
In the grass, the nerves of those recruits who were looking forward to going to the battlefield disappeared the moment they saw the Huya shooting performance, and their faces were full of excitement.
In the distance, a large group of men and horses walked through the woods and wilderness, quickly rushing towards Danyang. The camouflage suit is in the grass, so that people can't see clearly, can't distinguish it, and the shadows are full, but it looks like the grass is shaking.
The defenders of Danyang also had a brigade, and when they heard the gunshots, they left a squadron to guard the camp, and the other Japanese troops set off in formation, with machine guns on their motorcycles, and rushed out of Danyang and rushed to the location of the gunshots.
As soon as they left, one by one the figures flashed through the street, quietly approached the Japanese barracks, and almost at the moment of gunfire outside, they launched an attack on the barracks.
In the sound of popping, when the Japanese found that someone was attacking the camp, it was already too late to counterattack, and in less than two minutes, all of them added up to less than ten shots, and the barracks were occupied.
The moment a large number of figures rushed into the barracks, the reaction was the same as that of the main road, and the sound of vomiting sounded one after another.
The first time I saw the picture of the brains bursting, many people vomited out their breakfast, which was still unfinished, and continued to retch, until the yellow-green bile came out, and they refused to stop.
Huya's team members had long expected such a scene, and they were the same at the beginning, so they didn't even care about these rookies, and went straight to clean the battlefield, open the ammunition depot of the Japanese army, and pick out the ammunition they needed.
In less than 20 minutes, the Japanese troops of the two brigades were wiped out by the same two brigades with 2,000 recruits, and there were no casualties on this side.
The Japanese soldiers who were running forward in the distance heard sporadic gunfire in the distance behind them, but no one stopped.
At this time, not to mention the generals, even the soldiers understood that the other party dared to attack one of their brigades, and I am afraid that they did not care about the number of them.
Sure enough, they guessed correctly. During the run, people continued to fall silently, and even the machine guns in their hands sprayed tongues of fire, but they couldn't stop the overturned figures.
It has not been a kilometer to run out of the city, and there is not a single cavalry left. The Japanese troops in the brigade rapidly decreased under the continuous machine gun fire from the trucks, and more than a thousand corpses were thrown down at a distance of one kilometer.
It was only then that Fujita, who was sitting in a sidecar, realized that they had been bitten by a large army, and that it was still an invisible army. At this rate of death, they will be all killed in Changzhou dozens of kilometers away.
At this time, he was no longer angry, quickly observed the surroundings, and at the moment he saw a hill on the right side of the front, he shouted and ordered, and the brigade attacked there, seized the commanding heights, and prepared to hold on and wait for reinforcements.
"Attention the teams, the voles have already headed towards the cemetery, ready to close the door!"
Liu Zhong saw that the Japanese army suddenly changed direction, he smiled and ordered.
Sun Tao, at this time, led a large army straight to Danyang, where he was to block reinforcements from Yangzhou and Nanjing. The other three armies have been interspersed between Taipingzhuang and Changzhou, no more than 20 kilometers away from Changzhou, and in another hour at most, the entire encirclement will be completed.
At this time, the route of travel was changed, and all the generals, including Hatohiko Asakanomiya, found out. They didn't know that the Ludao Brigade was rapidly attrition. But they are also aware of the inappropriateness, and Fujita will not choose to stick to it without special circumstances, which is not in line with Fujita's style of fighting.
When the Hewei was about to be established, and the Chaoxiang Palace Hatohiko cooperated with Liu Zhong to arrange the cemetery in advance, Dong Ku also launched an action in Hongkou...... (To be continued......)
