Chapter 138: Bloody Battle of the Fourth Army
No matter how steel a man is, he can't stand Ling Chi's punishment.
Under the threat of gunpoint, one by one the Japanese lined up and cut a knife on Okamura Ninji's body, and these Japanese, who did not dare to use heavy hands, each knife only cut a small piece of flesh and blood.
There was also a medic on the side, who hung glucose on Okamura Ninji and stuffed a ball in his mouth so that he would not bite off his tongue in pain. Head.
Several Japanese who refused to do so were sentenced on the spot.
Yi Chuan, who was not far away, was in no mood to look at it anymore after watching it for a while, so he returned to the field headquarters with the guard battalion.
The Fourth Imperial Japanese Army will soon arrive at this place, and the Second Division will prepare to be armed, and he, the division commander, will not be able to waste time on these Japanese.
Immediately after the attack on Nerima, the 2nd Division began to set up defensive positions around Nerima Town.
These Japanese civilians in the town of Nerima were also captured to build trenches and bunkers.
……
Two days later, Okamura had died, and more than 1,000 Japanese prisoners had become the main labor force of the construction.
The 2nd Division, which had withdrawn from Nerima Town, had formed defensive positions on both sides of a narrow road a few kilometers behind Nerima Town.
This is the only way to get to Tokyo, and it is the only way to get from Hakura to Tokyo, and it is also the only way to connect the north and the south with railway lines throughout Japan.
The 2nd and 3rd Divisions specially dispatched two armored trains for this purpose to defend the counterattack.
Armored trains, this kind of equipment in the East Indies, it can only rust in the rainforest, but in Japan, where the railway is very developed, it is very useful.
During this period, Japan has perfected the national railway foundation, the main railway arteries have been laid, and the intercity railways between major cities have been opened one after another, also because of the development of transportation, but also led to the rapid development of Japan's economy.
This is unmatched by any other country in Asia, and even much more developed than the railways of many advanced Western countries.
The armored train is also the most powerful army combat weapon of the Red Guard Corps at this stage, and the armored train not only has powerful firepower, but also has a specially set up command center for the troops.
It can be used at the division level and regimental level headquarters at any time.
The reason why the 2nd Division chose to use machine guns instead of shelling Nerima Town was because the railway connecting Haraki and Tokyo passed through the center of Nerima Town.
At this moment, the two armored trains that were transferred to this world were not such a big kill as train guns. However, due to the advanced power system, there are a total of eight carriages, in addition to the power carriage in the center of the catastrophe, there is also a command carriage, and the remaining six carriages are all armed carriages for combat.
All kinds of heavy machine guns and small-caliber rapid-fire guns are usually hidden on the sides or on the top of the carriage, and when a battle breaks out, the side and top armor of the carriage will be opened, and the barrel and barrel can be stretched out to give a heavy blow to the enemy.
When the 2nd Division was building a position, the 4th Imperial Japanese Army was also in the vanguard and also arrived at Nerima Town, but at this moment, Nerima Town has long been lost in its memory.
Burned ashes were everywhere, and a bloody corpse was quickly found by the Japanese soldiers at the intersection of the former highway in Nerima Town.
This is a corpse with little flesh and blood on its body, and next to the corpse, there are two large wooden basins, and in the basins, there are thin pieces of flesh and blood.
And in front of the corpse, there was a table, and there was also a basin on the table, and inside the basin were the internal organs of the corpse, and it was connected to the corpse's throat and the lower part of the corpse. Body organs.
All the flesh and blood on the hands and feet were cut off, and the arms and the doubles. legs, the rest of the skeleton, chest. The spine and two rows of bloody ribs can also be clearly seen in front.
There was only a pale head, and the eyes were wide open, and the two eyeballs seemed to fall out of the sockets, and the mouth was open. roared, died without blinding, and died quite miserably.
Many Japanese soldiers who surrounded them couldn't help but vomit when they saw this, and the impact of the corpse in front of them was really terrifying.
The main thing is that this is the body of a Japanese officer.
Someone had already recognized Okamura Ninji, and a lieutenant endured it, walked up to Okamura Ninji's corpse, and said, "Okamura-kun, we will avenge you." ”
Subsequently, under the lieutenant's order, several Japanese soldiers loosened the rope on the wooden frame, put Okamura Ninji's internal organs into his fleshless body, found a bag, and put the cut flesh into it together.
The Japanese vanguard that arrived at Nerima was a complete infantry wing, which was supposed to meet the follow-up troops in Nerima Town, but now Nerima Town is gone, but the railway is still there.
A few hours later, a train arrived behind the town of Nerima, and the Royal Japanese Fourth Regiment collected more than forty pieces of various artillery pieces and was carried off the train, and on the road, more Japanese troops arrived in the town of Nerima.
Soon, the Japanese troops in the town of Nerima had increased to 30,000 or 40,000, and by tomorrow, the 100,000 troops of the Fourth Army would arrive here.
The counterattack on Tokyo is not a slogan, and many Japanese are working on it.
That night, the Fourth Army launched a fierce attack on the mountain pass defended by the Second Division.
However, in the first round of attacks, the artillery unit of the Fourth Army, which had just attacked less than two rounds, had already been completely destroyed by the artillery brigade of the Second Division.
However, following the superiority of troops, the Fourth Army launched another general attack on the valley at dawn.
In order to be able to take the mountain pass in one go, the second round of attack, the Fourth Army invested the strength of two wings in one go, and launched a fierce attack on the mountain passes on both sides at all costs.
The barbed wire was torn a few times, but with both wings falling in the attack, by the evening of the next day the Fourth Army launched an even more fierce attack.
In just a few days, the Fourth Army frantically launched seven or eight group charge attacks, and carried out tentative attacks endlessly.
In the defensive positions on both sides of the pass, more than 40,000 Japanese fell in successive bloody battles.
However, the 2nd Division also paid thousands of casualties, and the attacking Japanese were very crazy and completely put their own lives on the line.
However, if the Fourth Army fought like this, even if it was exhausted, it would not want to get one step closer to Tokyo, and the Japanese troops without artillery would not be able to break through the complete blockade of the two divisions in the direction of Tokyo.
Because behind the defense line of the second division, there is also the defense line of the third division.
