Amid the sound of gunfire, Sada Jiro's ears were not damaged, and he immediately heard the report of the signal soldier.

"Got it!"

After snatching the telegram from the communications soldier and reading it, Sada Jiro said excitedly.

Afterwards, Sada Jiro handed the telegram to the chief of staff, Captain Kazuo Kase, and said, "Kase-kun, the wing commander has sent reinforcements from two squadrons out of the city to reinforce us. ”。

"Pass the order, give me to resist the enemy to the death, and hold out until reinforcements arrive."

Kazuo Kaze quickly read the telegram, and then said heavily: "Yes, Captain." ”。

Subsequently, Kazuo Kase immediately sent someone to give the order to resist the fire of the ambushed enemy.

However, at this time, Zhang Dabiao condescended to command the first and second companies of the command post headquarters, seized favorable terrain on both sides of the road, and relied on the cross-fire of machine guns that had already been arranged to cover the attack.

The brigade of devils commanded by Jiro Sada was already beaten with heavy casualties, and the losses began to pass halfway.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

Another battalion of five 82-millimeter mortars that accompanied the army fired shells and smashed them down, instantly blowing up the counterattacking devil machine gunners into the sky.

You must know that it is still daytime, and it is not yet night, and the scene of the devil's machine gunner being blown up into the sky has been seen by all the devil soldiers at close range.

"Damn!"

"Eight Tooth Road! Eight grid tooth road! ”

Jiro Sada also saw it, and roared through gritted teeth.

Originally, his brigade had twelve heavy machine guns, as many as twenty-four light machine guns.

However, under the first round of fire attack of the ambush troops commanded by Zhang Dabiao, the devil soldiers who specially carried machine guns were specially carried in the devil team that used machine gun fire and mortar shells to aim at the marching devil team.

As soon as the initial ambush began, half of the machine guns carried by machine gunners and machine gunners in Sada Jiro's brigade were reimbursed.

When they came back to their senses and counterattacked, when the terrain was unfavorable, the devil machine gunners who were beaten by a battalion of sharpshooters who were ambushed on both sides of the road suffered more than half of the casualties.

Until now, there were not many of Sada Jiro's brigades, machine gunners and light and heavy machine guns.

Seeing that the few machine gunners and light and heavy machine guns were blown up into the sky by the enemy's artillery fire, Sada Jiro's eyes turned red.

"The team leader, machine gunners and light and heavy machine guns have lost too much, and our machine gun firepower is already insufficient."

The chief of staff of the brigade, Captain Kazuo Kase, crawled to Sada Jiro with his waist at this time, and said urgently.

"Reinforcements have arrived out of the city, and we have to hold out for at least half an hour."

Jiro Sada said: "I saw the losses of machine gunners and light and heavy machine guns, and told all the remaining Imperial soldiers to counterattack in disguise on the spot." ”。

"Captain, I'm afraid not!"

Captain Kazu Kaze gritted his teeth and said with a stern expression: "The enemy's firepower is too fierce, and it occupies a favorable terrain. ”。

"If we continue to fight here, I'm afraid we won't be able to withstand it for ten minutes."

Sada Jiro looked around and saw that in the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, the condescending machine gun fire of the 1st Battalion of the Independent Regiment was cross-covered, completely suppressing the small amount of machine gun fire in his brigade.

The other brigade of devil soldiers all fought back with 38-style rifles.

However, the opponent's combat effectiveness is actually very strong, and it has blocked both ends of the road.

At this time, when you get up and concentrate your forces to break through, you can only become a machine-gun target for the enemy.

"You can't break through, this kind of terrain is a machine gun target for the enemy."

Sada Jiro knew what Kazuo Kase's next suggestion, so he shook his head directly, gritted his teeth and said, "We can only stay where we are, wait for the reinforcements of the two squadrons to arrive, and it is the most correct to surround each other." ”。

"But captain, the enemy's firepower is too fierce, and the troops have already suffered heavy casualties!"

Kazuo Kaze hurriedly said: "Our brigade has suffered heavy casualties now, and it is initially estimated that more than half of the troops have been damaged in battle. ”。“ Including the lightly and seriously injured personnel, the number of combat-ready soldiers in our brigade is about 400 people. ”。

"Nani? How can it be? ”

Hearing this, Jiro Sada, was shocked.

How long has it been since so many people have been killed or wounded?

"Yes, Captain, look at it!"

Kazuo Kaze directly pointed to the devil soldiers around him who were desperately fighting back, and said bitterly.

Jiro Sada immediately looked around, left and right, front and back, and his face immediately changed drastically.

Sure enough, before he knew it, his troops had already suffered heavy casualties.

"Then shrink the position and concentrate the forces to hold the counterattack."

Jiro Sada gritted his teeth and ordered directly.

"Otherwise, if you break through now, you can only become a live target for the other party, Kase-kun, you can see this, the enemy's firepower is too strong."

After Jiro Sada finally finished speaking, he said bitterly.

"Understood, Captain."

Finally, Kazuo Kase looked around and knew that what Jiro Sada said was right.

Now concentrate the remnants of the forces to break through, that is indeed looking for death, and use it as a live target for the enemy.

At this time, Zhang Dabiao had already commanded the first and second companies and began to concentrate firepower to deal with the remaining devil soldiers in the ambush circle.

"Battalion commander."

Liu Ziming, the commander of the first company, rushed to Zhang Dabiao's side at this time, pointed below and said: "It is estimated that there are only three or four hundred devils left, do you want to use the flying thunder cannon?" ”。

"We seem to have only brought a Flying Thunder Cannon, right?"

Zhang Dabiao watched the battle begin to fall into anxiety, and immediately asked Liu Ziming.

"Yes!"

Liu Ziming nodded and said, "None of us used that flying thunder cannon to fight the prince's guards of Fumi Palace Hirohiko. ”。

"Battalion commander, there are fifteen explosives packs, use them!"

Zhang Dabiao looked at the watch on his right wrist, and the time had reached 5:57.

"Damn, I won't keep the city anymore."

Originally, the flying thunder cannon that was carried by the people of the first company was intended to be used to be ready to attack Shuocheng at any time, but now let's use the explosive package of the flying thunder cannon on the Sada brigade!

"Immediately use the Flying Thunder Cannon to blast out all the explosives packets, and blow up to ashes for the devil who is shrinking and resisting!"

Zhang Dabiao ordered Liu Ziming, the commander of the first company.

"Understood, battalion commander!"

Liu Ziming smiled and hurriedly rushed back to his company command position.

Soon, a company of flying thunder cannons was immediately erected, and immediately filled with explosives bags!

"!!"

With a loud bang, an explosive bag was smashed out of the chamber of the Flying Thunder Cannon.

Then, it smashed heavily on the place where the two devil commanders, Jiro Sada and Kazuo Kase, were hiding, and the distance was only two meters.

"Yaga, what is this?"

As soon as Jiro Sada saw the explosive bag that had smashed not far from him, he said in confusion.

"Boom !!"

A huge explosion directly killed Jiro Sada and Kazuo Kase, who were close at hand, as well as a communication soldier and several devil soldiers who were close at hand!

"Well done!"

Seeing this, Zhang Dabiao was overjoyed and continued to order the flying thunder cannon to blast out all the explosive packs.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

With all 15 explosive packages being knocked out, the remnants of the Devil's Brigade, who were shrinking their positions according to Sada Jiro's order, concentrating their forces and waiting for reinforcements, suffered heavy casualties.

Subsequently, Zhang Dabiao took advantage of the situation to command two companies of more than 1,000 men and horses to charge, and directly rushed down, relying on superior forces, to completely annihilate the remnants of Sada Jiro's army.
