Chapter 13 Airports

We continued to walk through the jungle, and the sweltering heat made our dehydrated bodies even more uncomfortable. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoBreaking through the dense jungle, a simple Japanese army camp appeared in front of us, it seemed that the Japanese soldiers were in a hurry, many daily necessities on the ground had not had time to be packed, and a few stragglers with guns gathered around a dirt pit.

I walked up with the people, and in the pit lay a seriously wounded Japanese soldier, his leg was broken, and his broken leg had begun to rot and was crawling with white bugs.

"Vomit"

A few soldiers behind me vomited, and I was sick to my stomach.

"Sir, what should we do about this?" A few soldiers who fell behind saw my non-commissioned officer armbands and hurriedly asked.

I playfully watched the Japanese soldier's numb but fierce eyes, and pulled out my pistol in the shocked eyes of the others.

"Smack" "Smack"

The only good leg of the Japanese army was kicked and lost its breath. The people I brought with me didn't dare to say anything, but the few stragglers couldn't help it.

"Sir, you shot a prisoner of war, and he's a wounded! You have violated the Geneva Conventions! A young soldier with a freckled face was emotional.

I calmly put Luger back in his holster and pointed at the corpse of the Japanese soldier.

"See for yourself what he's hiding in his hands!"

The freckled soldier actually jumped in and turned the body over. The onlookers exclaimed, a bundle of grenades hidden under the corpse, and the Japanese soldier was holding the fuse tightly in his hand.

"Only dead Japanese are good Japanese!"

Looking at the silent freckled soldier, I couldn't help but remind him, and left with someone after speaking. The presence of the camp meant that the airfield was not far away, and by the time we arrived, the battle was long over, and the Japanese did not have many people stationed here, and the American troops easily took the place.

Construction vehicles are working hard to repair the damaged runway, soldiers who have no vigilance tasks are also helping, repairing it earlier and getting supplies earlier, it is rare that the soldiers who do heavy work have no one to complain.

"The mission is finally over," Jiang Yitao said as he threw down the sapper shovel and rubbed his reddened hands.

"I can't see it, the U.S. fleet hasn't come back yet, and the Japanese troops on the island are shrinking their forces and preparing for a counterattack, they won't let us stand here, and the next battle is the real test," I whispered, remembering what I saw in the Japanese camp today.

We found a Japanese arsenal at the airport, and the Type 38 rifles were not looked down upon by the US troops, so they only moved a few Type 92 heavy machine guns and a few boxes of grenades to set up a defensive line. I took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to sneak up on dozens of rifles and a whole box of ammunition, filling my small storage space.

The imaginary Japanese attack at night did not come, did I guess wrong? In the early hours of the morning, the Japanese still did not attack, and I fell asleep suspiciously holding my gun against the bunker. The Japanese troops defending the island were even more difficult than I imagined, they did not have enough troops and supplies to attack, and several Japanese transport ships secretly docked at the other end of the island that night, in order to recapture the airport, the Japanese army transferred 1,000 Japanese troops from nearby islands, and the Japanese troops who were busy unloading had no time to attack the airport.

The departure of the fleet left us without the long-range support of naval guns, but the navy's various fighters still dominated the area, and the Japanese would not easily attack during the day without air support. I spent the whole day in a half-asleep state, and we had a rare opportunity to relax after taking the airport.

It got dark early, and it was dark before six o'clock, and the arrival of night meant that the air force was useless, and we were on the same starting line as the Japanese army. The area we defended was on the southern line, and the American army estimated that there were less than 500 Japanese troops on the island, so we only left less than 400 men in our regiment at the airfield.

My heart was uneasy, and every time this feeling came up, it was a sign of danger, and my nervousness affected the soldiers in the squad, and everyone stared at the pitch-black jungle with wide eyes.

The screech of "woo", "boom", "boom", "boom" shells broke the quiet night.

"They're coming!"

Soldiers of the various lines of the American army braved artillery fire into combat positions, lying on their stomachs and waiting for the shelling to end. Not everyone had good luck, several mortar shells fell into the American foxhole, and none of the American soldiers hiding in it were spared.

"Medic!"

Wounded American soldiers screamed in terror, and several soldiers wearing red crosses busily shuttled through the artillery fire.

The Japanese artillery fire was not fierce, it only lasted for a few minutes, I picked up the Garand rifle and poked my head out to observe the quiet jungle, but there was still no Japanese soldier, if it were not for the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, I would have thought that the shelling just now was just my dream.

"His Majesty the Emperor Onboard"

The beastly howls of the Japanese army broke the calm before the storm, and countless Japanese soldiers rushed out of the jungle to meet the American troops who had been preparing for a long time.

"Bang" "Bang" "Da Da Da"

The sound of bean-like gunfire rang out over the U.S. defensive line, and the Japanese troops fell one after another, and more Japanese soldiers rushed out of the jungle in the dark. The sense of impact brought by the crowd tactics is incomparable to other tactics, and we shoot like a machine, but the number of Japanese troops does not decrease, and my heart begins to hair.

"Smack"

A bullet hit a soldier next to me, and he fell silently. The most dangerous thing was not the charging Japanese soldiers, but the wounded who fell among the corpses, who used the cover of the night and the corpses of their comrades to shoot the black guns of the American soldiers.

Due to the lack of supplies, the Japanese army focused on accurate shooting in their training, and most of the Japanese soldiers were very accurate in marksmanship, and the casualties of the American troops began to rise sharply. I don't know about the situation of the U.S. military in other aspects, and there are fewer and fewer U.S. troops here who can still shoot.

"Tom" "Boom"

After the explosion of a grenadier, our only heavy machine gun was silent, and the line was finally breached!

"Ahh Several U.S. soldiers were stabbed to the ground by the Japanese soldiers who rushed up.

"Get on the bayonet!" I pulled out my bayonet and put it on, and the hand-to-hand combat that I had been avoiding still appeared.

The Japanese rammed into the American lines, and the snorting of bayonets stabbing the human body was incessant. I pulled away the bayonet that had stabbed me, kicked the attacking Japanese soldier down, and stabbed him in the abdomen. There are few bones here, and it is not easy to jam the bayonet.

"Ahh Another Japanese soldier rushed over angrily when he saw the sacrifice of his comrade, and I saw the opportunity to stab him in the chest.

"Onboard!"

A Japanese soldier slashed at me with a katana, and I hurriedly raised my gun to resist but couldn't pull it out, and the Japanese soldier was holding the bayonet and smiling hideously, ignoring the blood that was sprayed. I dropped the gun and dodged the slash of the Japanese soldier Cao sideways, and when I saw a knife in the air, the soldier Cao quickly retracted the knife and stabbed it.

"Sting"

The katana stabbed me under the armpit, cutting through my skin, and the wound was so painful that I clamped the katana and slashed it into the hand of the Japanese soldier Cao.

Jun Cao let go of his hand in pain, and he threw me to the ground without pausing, and grabbed my neck with both hands. I was a little out of breath, but I couldn't break free. I simply ignored the tightening hand around my neck, and directly reached out to clasp the eyes of the military cao.

"Ahh

The pain caused him to let go of his hand, and I quickly knocked him down with a punch and threw himself to his feet. The Japanese soldier Cao Cao under him struggled hard, and I held his hand tightly, and I couldn't do anything about him for a while.

My eyes began to darken, and I was a little out of strength, and if I continued like this, I would definitely die. The threat of death made me lose my mind, and I didn't even think about biting the neck of the Japanese soldier.

"Ahh Jun Cao struggled violently in pain, the blood sprayed into my throat, choking me out of breath, I bit hard, the Japanese soldiers under me gradually stopped struggling, and I fell down in front of me.
