Chapter 445: Annihilation

The 72nd Brigade was besieged on a high ground of more than 300 meters in the lower reaches of the Nandu River, with endless primeval jungle on the right and turbulent river water on the left, with enemies in front and behind, the encirclement had been shortened to a range of three kilometers, and the only way out was to run south along the river bank, but that position had long been targeted by the artillery regiment of the Third Division, and as long as the Japanese made a slight move, they would be bombarded like raindrops.

In less than a week, their military rations had bottomed out, and the little devils had to pick up things from the dead, and even everything that could be eaten on the mountain had been turned over, but where could they find food that could sustain thousands of people on these few kilometers of mountain.

More than 1,000 wounded soldiers of the Japanese army could not be treated with medicine, and their wounds slowly began to suppurate and become infected, and the high fever did not go away. And the siege continued, and the Huaxia people were not in a hurry to attack, the purpose was to consume them.

The fear of death gradually spread in the hearts of many people, and under the infection of this emotion, the morale of the Japanese army fell to the bottom, and they no longer had the slightest hope.

……

The brigade commander, Chiba Shibei, sat on a large stone with a katana in his hand and listened quietly to the report of the communications corps.

"Report to the brigade commander, the Guangkou Wing and the Beicun Wing have reached the Nauna area, and there are still 30 kilometers away from us, but the Huaxia people have set up an ambush halfway, and they have been fighting for several days and have not been able to open the road, and the Guangkou Wing has to retreat 15 kilometers due to excessive casualties."

"Commander Matsusaka telegraphed us to hold our positions and wait for reinforcements, the Mandalay side has organized a second reinforcement, and the 4th and 5th Divisions from Siam will arrive on the battlefield soon, and then it will be the day of counterattack......"

Chiba Shibei, who had a sad face, sneered, glanced south, and sneered to himself: "Counterattack? These red deer are light-hearted! I still want the center to bloom, what to fight back now? ”

"Chiba-kun, didn't Siam also send reinforcements, as long as we hold on, we should..."

The chief of staff comforted softly on the side, but when he saw the hungry yellow-faced and thin-skinny soldiers around him, he became less confident when he spoke.

"How to insist? The Fifth Division is now a recruit unit, and you don't know the virtues of the Fourth Division, Expect those red deer to come and support them? I'm afraid it's for us to collect the body! ”

Chiba Ten Guards are not angry, can't they explain the situation at the moment? It can be seen from the attitude of the reinforcements that the higher authorities probably want to give up on them, and they are basically at a dead end.

Now the troops are frugal, everyone only eats one meal a day, but even so the last surplus food can only last for another three days, the soldiers are so hungry that they begin to look for wild vegetable roots all over the mountains to satisfy their hunger, if they do not break through the siege, I am afraid that in the end they will not even have the strength to peel the bark of the tree.

Thinking of this, Chiba Shibei couldn't sit still, he stood up and looked around, and the soldiers who were so hungry that their eyes were deep-set looked at him expressionlessly, their eyes full of fear and confusion.

We can't sit back any longer, or we're all going to die!

"Mix all the food, let them have a full meal at night, and then disperse in the middle of the night."

Chiba Shibei turned his heart sideways, gritted his teeth and said immediately.

"Chiba-kun..."

The chief of staff wanted to speak again and again, and he knew very well that if he did this, it was estimated that more than half of them would die on the way to break through.

"It's better to run as much as you can than to starve to death all here!"

Chiba Shibei was unmoved, insisting on his opinion: "The 326th Wing broke through to the east, the brigade directly under the brigade headquarters left from the southwest along the river shoreline, and the 327th Wing... To the south, they will be the first to attack! ”

The reason why Chiba arranged this way was because most of the 327 Wing were wounded and suffered the heaviest losses, so they broke through to the south... To put it bluntly, it's just to attract firepower and cover for the large army.

In the current situation, it is also a last resort to survive with a broken tail, and in order for the large army to break through as much as possible, only some people can be sacrificed.

Chiba Shibei drew his katana, looked at the bright sword god and fell into thought, even if he did, the entire brigade could successfully break through.

"Brigade commander..."

"Carry out the order, everyone throw away the useless clutter and get ready, may Amaterasu bless you tonight, gentlemen! Martial arts will last forever! ”

"Hey! Martial arts will last forever! ”

……

On the other side, on the forward position of the 200th Division, Gao Ji and Long Wenwen were patrolling the front line with the guard troops, and the two of them were sitting in jeeps, talking and laughing, discussing some armament affairs.

"Old Gao, the Japanese have been hungry for five or six days, right?"

"Yes, even if you count it for half a month today, hehe, you want to say it... Just fuck it, don't mess with these melons. Gao Jiren said with a big grin, wanting to destroy the little devils on the other side.

"Don't be in a hurry, they can't help but take the initiative to come out, let the troops be prepared, especially at night, hum... Lao Tzu wants to wait for these grandsons to fall into the net! Long Wenwen smiled wickedly, he had at least several ways to play dead little devils in his mind.

"That's okay, but when the time comes, you have to give the main attack right to the front line, and let Chen Boy fight, those Japanese are all foreheads!" Gao Jiren replied indifferently, and casually joked

To say that he has been fighting with the little devil for so many years since joining the army, it is the first time that he can be so happy, all of which has to be counted from the time he joined Liao Mingyu's command.

Although the 200th Division is a first-class elite unit in China, it is still relatively difficult to fight with the Japanese army, and the exchange ratio can only be said to be relatively close, where is it crushing the other side in various ways like now.

"It's good, it's good... It's all your drops. Long Wenwen learned Shaanxi dialect and said with a smile, but his eyes gradually looked away.

Looking at the lush hilltop covered in large trees, a playful smile appeared on his face. Think about it from another perspective, if your own Japanese are besieged for half a month and have no food and no reinforcements, it is time to fight hard by now.

……

At about three o'clock in the morning, the night sky was covered with dark clouds, and there was not a trace of moonlight to be seen tonight, unlike the noisy artillery fire during the day, the earth at this time was silent and terrifyingly quiet.

Beneath this silent jungle, there was a group of figures moving quietly, countless little devils carefully touching their feet down from the mountain.

"Stop!"

Chiba Jubei looked at the watch in his hand, three seventeen...

In front of them was the east bank of the Nandu River, and many Japanese soldiers could not help but become restless when they saw it, because as long as they walked south along the river bank line for about ten kilometers, they could cross the river to the west and enter the Mandalay area without escaping.

The other side is where the artillery of the Chinese people is deployed, and the reason why they did not set up their artillery on the east bank is also because they are worried that the distance here is too close to the original brigade position.

It seems that the east bank seems to be the weakest place in the encirclement, but if all sides break through from here, the east bank will instantly become a killing area for the opponent's artillery, and the Huaxia army blocking the road in the south can completely take advantage of the situation to surround it, and Chiba believes that the enemy on the other side can also cross the river and attack at any time.

At that time, the price of fighting will be great, and the probability of losing the cover of the hilltop position and engaging the enemy and being resurrounded in such a flat area is too high, and if you don't do it well, you will be completely annihilated.

That's why Chiba Shibei chose the routine of attacking the east and west, making the illusion that the large army would break through to the south and southeast, while he quietly waited here with the brigade headquarters, and fled west from here while the other party's attention was all attracted.

By 20 o'clock, the 327th Wing was planned to open fire first in the south to attract enemy fire, while the 326th Wing would break through in the other direction 10 minutes later. After they all exchanged fire with the Huaxia people, the brigade directly under the brigade could act.

"Chiba-kun, it's already 3:25, why hasn't there been any movement over there?" The chief of staff stared at the night sky in the south, always feeling that something bad was going to happen.

"Don't be in a hurry, wait a little longer, let the people below calm down." Chiba Jubei pretended to command calmly, but his palms were sweating, and he was obviously very nervous.

Rumble! Rumble!

Several explosions suddenly came from a distance, followed by the rapid and noisy sound of gunfire, and the south finally exchanged fire.

Chiba finally breathed a sigh of relief, stared at the hands of her watch, and began to count the time.

The silence of the night was broken by the battle to the south, and the defensive positions of the three regiments were lit up, and several flares were fired into the air, and in an instant a large area below was as bright as day.

"Bang bang ......!"

"Ahh

Poof...

I saw that hundreds of Japanese soldiers rushed towards the defense line brazenly regardless of their lives, they seemed to have forgotten life and death, and there was a smell of burning jade, and many Japanese soldiers wrapped in gauze tied bombs to themselves, and rushed into the trenches to pull the lead without fear of death, just to pull a few enemies to die together.

"Don't panic, don't get entangled with each other! Quickly leave the forward position and make room for the machine gunners behind! ”

On the position, the platoon commander gave orders to his subordinates, and at the same time, he did not stop moving, and the submachine gun continued to spray fire snakes, sweeping down the little devils who rushed over one by one.

"Onboard!"

A Japanese soldier quietly crawled nearby, jumped up at the right time, and strangled the platoon commander's upper body at once.

"Huh!?" The platoon leader was shocked and just wanted to break free from the other party, but he heard a creepy pop.

This little devil grabbed a grenade in his hand, and pressed it tightly against the platoon commander's chest, the grenade was still smoking on it, and the other party also desperately strangled his arm with his hand and did not let go, just to exchange his life for life.

At this moment, the platoon commander could not tolerate half a minute of hesitation, only to see him throw away the submachine gun, grab the opponent's arm with his backhand, and press the little devil to the ground with force under his legs.

"Platoon commander!"

Rumble!!

At this last moment, a trace of determination flashed in the platoon commander's eyes, and he could only make these few actions in just a few seconds, and before he could even speak, the grenade exploded between the two!

The huge kinetic energy blew the two into a blur of flesh and blood, and the platoon commander's body was even blown upside down, but fortunately, it exploded in the trench, and the shrapnel did not have much impact on the other soldiers around.

This tragic scene was tearful, and the soldiers in the platoon did not care about grief, but quickly retreated according to the orders of their commander in front of them.

On the defensive line, the soldiers of the three regiments were indeed a little overwhelmed by this suicide attack, but they did not retreat, but quickly stabilized the line under the command of their respective commanders, and taught those little devils a hard lesson with the weapons in their hands.

……

At this moment, the soldiers of the second regiment on the opposite bank are full of firepower, in addition to heavy artillery, mortars, M2 heavy machine guns... As long as the weapon can reach the range, it will lead to the little devil to play with his life.

The unsuspecting Japanese fell in pieces, shells fell into the crowd one after another, and the shattered corpses flew everywhere, and the terrible situation could not bear to look at directly.

"Ha Pressure Library! Hurry back into the woods! ”

Looking at this scene in front of him, Chiba Shibei was grief-stricken, the Huaxia people were obviously on guard, and this was a trap carefully arranged for them.

The Japanese advance was caught in a bloody battle and could not get out, but the large force was still near the river beach, and this severe beating was called a strong one. The little devil was already frightened, and desperately fled to the woods behind him.

Finally ran into the woods, and then counted the remaining people around him, Chiba Shibei almost turned his back on his anger, the wave of attacks just now directly reimbursed one-third of his people, and the huge loss made people crazy.

"Yaosi-kun? Yao Si-kun? Chiba looked around, but couldn't see his old partner: "Which of you saw Chief of Staff Yoshiji?" ”

"See... Chief of Staff he... It's already broken on the river beach. One of the soldiers spoke timidly.

"Nani!?" Chiba was taken aback, and his body shook as if he had been struck by lightning, but fortunately, the lieutenant next to him quickly supported him.

"Brigade commander, please cheer up! You've got to get us out of here! "The lieutenant is very anxious, if even Chiba collapses, then they are really finished.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

The shelling of the opposite bank continued, and began to gradually stretch back, and the jungle became full of fire, and experienced veterans knew well that this was a prelude to an enemy attack

"Report! The rear observation post reported that the troops of the Chinese on the southern blockade line were attacking our position, and it was expected that they would come into contact in about twenty minutes. ”

At this moment, the soldiers of the second regiment on the opposite bank are full of firepower, in addition to heavy artillery, mortars, M2 heavy machine guns... As long as the weapon can reach the range, it will lead to the little devil to play with his life.

The unsuspecting Japanese fell in pieces, shells fell into the crowd one after another, and the shattered corpses flew everywhere, and the terrible situation could not bear to look at directly.
