Chapter 476
The smoky estuary position was devastated, full of large and small craters and inhuman-shaped corpses, and the air was full of the smell of blood and burnt...
Garrisoned here was the Soona Brigade, and three hours after the start of the battle, the Japanese army successively reinforced two full-fledged brigades here, and the originally crowded positions were now very few.
More than 3,000 people have been fighting so far, and less than half of them are left, and they can't imagine how terrifying the opponent's offensive firepower is.
"All out of the old fly! Collect ammo, check weapons and equipment, and press the warehouse!"
"Early
The officers' shouts echoed in the open land, and the Japanese soldiers were like ants burrowing out of their burrows, and the dense ranks refilled the trenches that had been uninhabited.
"Whew...
Team leader Kitamura climbed out of the pit and quickly shook off the dirt on his body, the muzzle of the rifle in his hand had been blocked by sand, and he had no choice but to find a pipe brush to dredge the barrel, otherwise there would be a risk of exploding as soon as the gun was fired.
The corpses and blown sandbags of the companions outside still have to be disposed of, the broken trench fortifications must be repaired as soon as possible, and the companions who are buried in the ground by the sand...
Under the command of the officer, countless Japanese soldiers began to get busy, and the little devils knew that there was not much time left for them, and the other side could attack again at any time and place.
Not to mention those who are uncertain about their fate and death, the wounded soldiers can't deal with it too much, so they can only be hastily bandaged and sent to the bunker in the rear, leaving a grenade for them to fend for themselves.
"Kitamura-kun, the others..."The team leader Cao ran over with a dirty face.
"Before they came out, there were only a few of us left in the team."
Kitamura lay on the trench and preached with palpitations, and did not forget to look back at the hole behind him after speaking.
In the shelling just now, most of the tunnel where he was staying was blown down, and most of the team was buried underneath. He and a few of his companions were lucky enough to hide around the corner of the tunnel and survive, but the rest of his men did not make it out alive. There were several meters of soil on top of the tunnel, and now there was no way to rescue them, so the commander had to order them to be abandoned.
"Kitamura-kun, the Aragaki Junyu of the 63rd squad is broken, you go over to take over the command, they are in the second ring fortification on the right, the location there is very important, I will transfer another machine gun team to you later."
"Hey!"
Kitamura hurriedly agreed, but when he heard this, his heart suddenly cooled.
But there was no way, the squadron leader's order could not be resisted, so Kitamura could only stand up and accept it silently, preparing to take the few remaining soldiers to report to the 68th squad.
"Squadron Leader Sikasi, I just observed, it seems that the Huaxia people have withdrawn, should we rearrange the defensive line?"
Before leaving, the attentive Kitamura said one more word. The squad is located in the middle of the defensive line, and although it is a good fire support point with a good view, it is very far forward.
It's like a big man guarding the alley with a machine gun, who seems to be a man who can't do anything, but he has also become the main target of the enemy's first attack.
If it had been placed in the past, such a machine-gun ring fortification could have blocked the attack of two or three hundred people, but now the opponent's support firepower is not covered, and the infantry can't push it and directly bombard, otherwise the plane throws bombs, and the two squads have been exhausted in half a day's effort.
Therefore, he wanted to propose to change the position of the firepower point, not to be so brainless to the front, it was purely an act of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 of himself.
"Yaga, it's not something you should worry about!" The squadron leader did not pay attention to it, but reprimanded it loudly
He couldn't see that the Chinese people had withdrawn their troops, and now even the US fighter planes that had been on the ground for a moment had stopped at this moment.
As the saying goes, there must be demons when abnormal, and the Chinese people must have greater actions next.
It's a pity that their fate has long been predestined, no matter how the enemy changes, it is impossible to retreat after all.
Shout..
Just as the squadron leader was pondering, a sound of breaking the air hit him, and most of the Japanese soldiers heard it very little, it was the sound of shells smashing!
"Books are hidden!"
'Shelling!'
The frightened shouts came one after another, and the Japanese soldiers hurriedly fell into the trenches and subconsciously ran into the tunnel fortifications.
The little devil was blown out of the conditioned reflex by the continuous shelling in the past two days, as long as he heard the scream, he did not dare to stay in the position anymore, the opponent's artillery bombardment was not only powerful but also very sparse, and if he was a little slow, he would become a puddle of mud.
Within a few moments, the shells exploded on the position, but what was surprising was that this time the shelling was not as expected, only a few shells were scattered and scattered on the position, and the explosion was not as powerful as in the past, and there were almost no casualties.
Just when the little devil was puzzled, a thin pale green smoke slowly rose from the place where the cannonball exploded, and slowly spread out to all sides with the blowing of the wind.
There seemed to be a vague smell of bitter almonds in the air, and before the Japanese soldiers present could react, the nearest little devil suddenly felt that it was easy to breathe, and his chest seemed to be blocked by a boulder and he couldn't breathe, and then his pupils ended to contract, and his body twitched unconsciously and quickly.
Their faces turned red and their eyes burst out, red spots of different sizes appeared on their bodies in an instant, and their consciousness was slowly blurred, and in just a few seconds, a large number of Japanese soldiers fell to the ground holding their throats, and they couldn't even scream, so they could only fall to the ground and convulse in despair.
"It's poison gas! Run!"
"Ahem, wait! Help-.I.."
"Ahem.. pander to
The atomized "Tabang Poison" quickly diffused and volatilized in the air, and the pale green smoke moved mysteriously, constantly harvesting the lives of the little devils everywhere it went.
Kitamura, who was not close, seemed to have fallen into a ten-meter ice cave, and a chill permeated his whole body from head to toe, and he turned his head and ran towards the entrance of the tunnel without waiting for the chief to speak.
The squadron leader was also stunned by the scene in front of him, as if he had been struck by lightning, he listened to the exclamations and wails of his subordinates, and his body unconsciously ended trembling.
"Ha Pressure Library! Cover your mouth and nose with a wet towel and go all into the underground fortifications! Fast! action..."
The situation was not to be thought about, the squadron leader hurriedly stood on the sandbag, trying to beckon the soldiers to take shelter in the tunnel, but before he could say a word, he suddenly felt like something was stuck in his neck.
"Ahem. Ahem, how could it be?"
That poisonous fog is obviously still far away, why is he also poisoned?
The squadron leader clutched his neck and was very happy, he just wanted to run but found that his limbs gradually lost strength, and his body was sweating, followed by uncontrollable spasm and convulsions of his body, and his mouth could only make a more sagging sound like a fish in his throat.
"Ahh
"Help the juice fly!"
Kitamura and a few of his companions covered their mouths and noses with wet towels and ran desperately down the trenches.
The desolate wails of the soldiers in the distance kept reaching their ears, which stimulated everyone's nerves even more, and the desire to survive forced them not to stop for a moment.
"Oda-kun, turn right ahead, go right!" Kitamura hurriedly shouted at his companion who was dazed in front of him, and in a panic, the other party almost ran the wrong way.
"Got it, hurry..
Rumble!
Rumble!
Rumble!
Ahead was the entrance to the tunnel, and hope was close at hand, but at this moment, a new round of shelling completely destroyed their hopes.
Several poison gas bombs exploded again on the Japanese positions, one of which happened to land in the distance of Kitamura's gang. Oda, who was running at the front, bore the brunt of the attack, and the choking smoke engulfed him in an instant
"Ahem..."
The explosion shook people's chests, and they couldn't help but gasp and cough.
It's over!
This was the last thought in Kitamura's heart, and with the bitter apricot smell coming to his nose, an indescribable joy immediately came to his heart.
I saw that his eyes were bursting out, but his pupils were shrunk to the size of a needle, his breathing was not smooth, and the whole person suddenly ended convulsions violently, his legs kicked wildly, and his abdomen was like a knife in severe pain.
Immediately after that, it was like 10,000 steel needles piercing the scalp, the pain in the head was unbearable, the muscles of the whole body spasmed, and sweat soaked all the clothes.
In less than a minute, he was already delirious, a large amount of saliva came out of his mouth, and accompanied by convulsions to end incontinence, the whole person was no longer human.
Gradually, Kitamura's body has stopped convulsions, his eyes are wide open but he has lost the brilliance of life, and the same has stopped. And his heartbeat.
The terrible thing about nerve gas is that it is extremely lethal and volatile, in addition to the respiratory tract, it can also affect the human body through skin contact, and the small person can inhale a small amount of lethal doses.
The liquid poison is very volatile after being exposed to the air, and the wafting smoke is just a catalyst, and the real poison has already spread in the air, which cannot be seen or touched, but it can kill people invisibly!
Hiding in the tunnel can only delay the spread of the gas bomb a little, but the pervasive gas can also enter it and kill any life that exists, unless you can put on a gas mask and stay away from the killing area of the gas bomb in the first place. Death is only a matter of time.
In this era, in addition to the atomic bomb ... Nothing does more damage than chemical and biological weapons.
In just a few minutes, a large number of Japanese soldiers on the position stopped breathing, and the poisoned people were overjoyed, and the death was indescribable. The little devils have often dealt with biological weapons, but they have never seen such poison gas, and it only takes a few minutes to kill, and they don't have time to find cover or wear masks.
The estuary position has become a hell on earth, countless little devils have been ruthlessly killed by the "Ta Bang", and there is no time to escape in the face of that desperate lethality, as long as they are slightly exposed to poisonous gas, they will die in an instant.
And the same miserable situation. Also constantly staged throughout the Mandalay perimeter defence...
