People are swordsmen, I am fish and meat - at the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War. This should be the helpless and sad thought in the hearts of most Chinese. At this time, this was Sakai Naoji's thoughts-Sakai has studied Chinese traditional culture very deeply, and when the explosion finally stopped, he forcibly ordered a stop with a shudder in his heart, and then got out of the car and turned to look back, looking at the sea of fire that stretched for an unknown number of meters two kilometers away, and such a sentence suddenly appeared in his mind.

The second salvo of the 1st Special Artillery Brigade covered a wider area and the depth of the blow was longer, but the direct damage was not as good as the first one. The reason why the Japanese army suffered heavy losses was due to the complex terrain at the east end of Wucun Town. In the darkness, many people fell off cliffs or stepped on traps laid by the Self-Defense Guards, and some people even crashed headlong into the mountain wall or tree trunk, and were scared to death instead of being blown up.

"Your Excellency, let's go!" Tachibana walked up to Sakai with palpitations, and said gently.

Sakai: "Tachibana-kun, we made a mistake! ”

"What?"

"We should go on the offensive."

"Ahh

"It's too late to say that now! Speed up your retreat! ”

"Hello!"

"Tachibana-kun, I have a hunch! The one who defeated the empire the last must be the student army! We can't stop the rise of the Cadet Army. Ay! Now I know the wisdom of His Excellency Okamura! It's a pity. Tachibana-kun, herald, be sure to find the Xiangming Bridge! Live or die! ”

"Ahh Hello! I'll go for myself. ”

"Please!"

Although Tachibana didn't understand Sakai's most stubborn order, he still did it to the letter. And just as he was returning to Wucun Town with dozens of gendarmes to search for Xiangming Bridge, Ni Chunsheng was urging his subordinates to hurry up and refill the rockets. Seven minutes later, when the 54 Thunderbolts had been reloaded, he ordered the legs to be retracted and the position moved forward two thousand meters. In this way, it was not until a quarter of an hour later that they began the third salvo.

This round of salvo was much less effective than the previous two rounds, but it still killed more than 1,500 devils. In this way, the 1st Special Artillery Brigade annihilated more than 10,000 devils in just three salvos, which is a miracle. The offensive and defensive battle of Wucun also ended with the victory of the Second Army.

At about six o'clock, the east began to turn white, and Zhang Rentian began to march towards Wucun Town with more than 1,300 students and more than 1,000 self-defense soldiers under his command and cleaned up the battlefield along the way. More than 2,000 people cautiously entered the battlefield under the command of Zhang Rentian, and they walked among the corpses everywhere, and at first many members of the Self-Defense Forces could not help but start vomiting. Then, the cadets were infected, and many of them vomited.

It was only a joy to witness the explosion of the rockets, but now, when the hellish scene was presented in its entirety, they could not bear some of the most bloody details and became vulnerable. Not to mention these self-defense soldiers and trainees who have little battlefield experience, it is Zhang Rentian, an old soldier, when he walked out of the pile of devils' corpses for dozens of meters, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

The destructive power of cluster bombs is so amazing that few of the devils who have fallen to the ground are intact. As invaders, of course, their deaths were deserved, but the misery of this death was really not something ordinary people could bear. So, Zhang Rentian and the others walked all the way down and found a puzzling scene - many devils actually committed suicide.

"I really can't bear the psychological pressure, so I committed suicide!" Du Shuangwen squatted beside a Shao Zuo, pulled out the command knife he stabbed into the abdomen and said.

"Lose his mother! This rocket artillery is really, really-" Zhang Rentian sighed, "really" for a long time, stunned that he couldn't hold back a suitable adjective.

"It's more than innocent to die!" Du Shuangwen said, and then his eyes suddenly became shining, and then said: "Originally, I was worried that I might not be able to hold it this time, and I had to fight guerrilla warfare in the mountainous areas of Fujian, but now it's okay, with this kind of big killing weapon, how many people come from the little devil are in vain!" Lao Zhang, I now regret that I didn't go to the Special Operations Department in the first place! ”

When the special operations section was first established, Du Shuangwen happened to be studying at a military academy, and at that time, Li Tieshu talked to him and hoped that he would join the preparatory group of the special operations section. And he thought that the Special Operations Section was a civilian force, so he insisted on resigning.

Zhang Rentian knew this allusion, smiled when he heard this, and said: "There is no regret in this world. Well, hurry up and statistic. Hehe, we can also share a share of this credit! ”

February 8th, Spring Festival.

At about seven o'clock in the morning, on the main road in the north of Nanxiong City, Guangzhou, Ouyang Yun was sitting in the car wiping his face with a towel soaked in cold water, and suddenly saw the car in front of him stop, and then Jiang Huangyong jumped down, brandished a telegram and ran straight over, shouting something.

Now it is Liu Kui who is driving the car, and Liu Kui quickly stepped on the brakes and hung neutral gear to stop the car. Turning to Ouyang Yun, he said, "Commander-in-chief, Team Leader Jiang seems to have something important to report!" At this time, Jiang Huangyong had already run to Ouyang Yun's side and started knocking on the car door. Ouyang Yun unhurriedly handed the towel to You Xiaolian on the side, opened the door and was about to ask Jiang Huangyong why he was so excited, but heard him roar: "...... What a victory! ”

"What a victory!" Ouyang Yun took the telegram from his hand, and glanced at it, his eyes lit up.

Jiang Huangyong was still in a high state of euphoria, and he repeated: "Yushan Wu Village is a great victory!" Little sir, the 1st Special Artillery Brigade is doing a good job! ”

"Hmmm! Three rounds of salvo fire to destroy more than 12,000 enemies, not bad! Well, a nice New Year's gift! ”

"Send a congratulatory message to the Second Army! I estimate that Commander Ye and Ni Chunsheng must be in a hurry! Ha Lu haha, first Fuding annihilated more than 10,000 enemies, then Tietou Peak was more than 10,000, Yushan Wucun annihilated more than 19,000 enemies, little sir, this Chinese New Year's Eve is meaningful, more than 30,000 devils are gone! Hahaha, is this a New Year's gift from the Japanese? ”

Jiang Huangyong looked a little carried away, and Ouyang Yun's eyes darkened a little after seeing the number of casualties of the Second Army listed on the telegram, and said, "The congratulatory telegram is to be sent, and I also want to send condolences to the wounded officers and soldiers." In addition, send a telegram to Minister Ji, asking him to discuss with Jiang Lao whether to give partial pensions to the families of those soldiers who died in the war in advance, and if feasible, ask Liu Yuqing, Jiang Tiezhang and Ye Zhao to report the list to Guangzhou as soon as possible. ”

In the night battle on Chinese New Year's Eve, although the Second Army of Xue's Army achieved impressive results, the price paid was not small. One brigade was almost wiped out, two brigades were disabled, and the casualties exceeded 5,000, which made Ouyang Yun feel heartache. The Japanese attacked the Scholar Army with the strength of the whole country, and the fight was the idea of fighting for attrition, and the soldiers of the Scholar Army were supplemented in Fujian, Guangdong, and Qiong. Among them, Hainan has not yet been able to be included in the normal conscription system because of ethnic issues, that is to say, the only places where the real recruits of the student army are supplemented are actually Fujian and Guangdong.

The war of attrition, the student army can't afford to fight!
