Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 453 The Devil's Respect

The fight was suspended for 10 minutes.

The battle on the other side of the hill was also paused because of the huge explosion that resounded throughout the wilderness here.

The violent air wave even rushed to more than 100 meters away, rolling several Japanese infantrymen who were caught off guard down the hillside.

Nearly 400 Japanese soldiers in two infantry squadrons fought desperately under strict military orders, and ended up losing two-thirds of the battle. One of the infantry squadrons had only [-] soldiers left, completely losing its combat capability.

The news reached the ears of Kanda Masakae in the temporary headquarters in the rear, and he almost didn't blow up the top commander of the front line of the 36th Infantry Brigade, who was already battered.

He can understand that the Chinese will stick to their guns because they have no way out, and if they retreat, they will die!

But, why are the idiots of the 47th Infantry Regiment so stupid? With the help of two infantry squads and all the artillery of the brigade, it took half an hour to achieve such a record.

Are they pigs?
"Order, send the last two infantry squadrons of the 6th Infantry Brigade. Since 500 people are not enough, then add 500 people." The Japanese Army Colonel who was stunned for a full minute ordered coldly. "In addition, inform the lieutenant who suffered the most in the battle that he will serve as the forward commander in the next battle, and tell him that after he dies in battle, I will report his bravery to the brigade commander and even the commander. !"

As the Japanese army reassembled and mobilized, the Japanese artillery covered the entire "Lonely Tomb" again.

At this moment, including Tang Dao, who had already expected that the battle would be extremely tragic, he would not know that the battle between China and Japan will reach an unprecedented 1:6 in this silent battle in the small hills in southeast China. .

And it happened with the assistance of the Japanese army using more than 20 artillery pieces.

If they are not defeated, then the Chinese soldiers will almost become possessed by the gods of war.

Yes, even if the gods came down to earth, they would be wiped out in the shrapnel of nearly a thousand rounds of shells thrown by the Japanese army!

What's more, Chinese officers and soldiers have mortal bodies.

after an hour!

Earthy yellow shadows are active everywhere on the 'Guling' hills.

However, they still did not stand on the top of the hill waving knives and guns and their flags as the Japanese commander imagined, shouting victory.

Because they haven't won yet, even if they invested a total of 20 troops, 15 artillery pieces, 30 heavy machine guns, and nearly [-] grenadiers.

The Chinese, however, use the facts to explain what is meant by "a copper pea that can't be steamed until it's boiled or cooked, but it can't be smashed and fried, and it won't explode". They still occupy a small position on the top of the hill.

It was a position with an area of ​​no more than 300 square meters. From time to time, there were gunshots from [-]-type rifles. Although the shots were not accurate, the Japanese infantry who had already determined that they could win the final victory did not want to die at dawn In the darkness before.

For a while, no one dared to go up.

They can also retreat 100 meters and notify the rear mountain artillery to continue bombarding the ground.

But unfortunately, at this point in the battle, the 36th Infantry Brigade was also exhausted. The shell reserves that could have been used to support a battle that lasted for two days were consumed by 80.00% in just one and a half hours.

The artillery brigade of the divisional artillery unit, which was supposed to arrive at the battlefield an hour ago, actually got stuck in the mud because of a misreading of the map. At this moment, it was still fighting with the mud six kilometers away.

To put it bluntly, the 36th Infantry Brigade is like a strong man who has exhausted his strength at this time.As a result, although the Japanese infantry on the Guling already knew that their opponents were extremely weak, they were unable or even lacked enough courage to launch the final blow.

Of course, this is also a psychological change brought about by the victory at your fingertips. No one wants to be threatened with death when they can taste the sweet fruit.

There are enough deaths, enough to make people numb to fear.

There will never be more than 450 Japanese infantrymen who can still move on the hills, which almost means that more than 600 Japanese infantrymen have fallen on this damned position.

. . . . . . .

However, there are actually only two people on the 300 square meter field.

One is Major Scar, and the other is the young soldier who stabbed Second Lieutenant Katori Asuka to death.

The rest were either lying on the ground below or lying on the edge of this small position.

The 108th Division Guard Battalion Company is gone.

Together with the captain and company commander, there are 150 people in the company, leaving only one first class soldier and the highest officer of the guard battalion.

The four machine guns and four heavy machine guns, as well as the people who operated the equipment, were gone.

The circular fortifications built with huge manpower and material resources failed to stop the horror of probability. The intensive bombardment of thousands of shells, even if they hit [-]% of them, would end in destruction.

The ammunitionmen or auxiliary shooters who lost their equipment and were not dead were also supplemented into the trenches, and then died in battle with the infantry of the guard battalion.

This was still not enough. The Japanese troops besieged from three sides were like tides constantly hitting the position. After one wave of death, another wave came up.

The explosives buried in the other two positions had detonated, and they only blocked the Japanese army's footsteps for a few minutes.

As long as one side is breached, it will be a catastrophe for the positions on the other two sides, and there is no chance to even retreat to the top of the hill.

If it wasn't for Major Scar who broke the boat, he fired 6 red flares to notify the fire support company on the other side of the trench.

Pang Dahai from the fire support company gritted his teeth with tears in his eyes and ordered his last four mortars to shoot at the "Guling" in one breath and emptied the last 30 shells, blasting the Japanese and Chinese soldiers who had already rushed into the position into the night sky The fireworks in the middle of the day, the "Guling" position will never have the last stubbornness of the Chinese soldiers.

The 30 shells that hurt both sides buried at least more than 100 Japanese soldiers and more than 20 Chinese soldiers. The Japanese army retreated tens of meters, which also gave the Chinese soldiers on the three sides the last chance to retreat.

Finally, retreat to the top of the hill.

There is no so-called position there, only the shell crater left by the mountain artillery shells, and no more than ten people rebuilt the position in the shell crater.

Ten people, all the bullets attached to them before going to the battlefield have been emptied, there is no shell gun or submachine gun, the only thing they have is the [-] rifle picked up from the position.

In the sporadic shooting, ten soldiers who were already wounded were killed and injured one by one, leaving only two people.

"What's your name?" Major Scar, one of his arms gone, asked himself the last soldier as he lay tired and half-lying in the shell crater.

"Report to the battalion commander, my name is Dahe, Cheng Dahe!" The young soldier said, looking at the battalion commander of the major, whose breath was already weak, and pursed his lips.

"Become a big river, what a name! Your father is a man with ideals." Major Scar asked with a grin. "Dahe, we are about to die, are you afraid?"

"Afraid!" The young soldier thought carefully and answered honestly.

"Haha, that's a good point! I'm not afraid of whoever dies." Major Scar suddenly laughed out loud. "I'm also very scared! Especially when I know I'm going to die soon."

"Go and drag those brothers who are still alive." Major Scar ordered.

Cheng Dahe nodded, he knew what the officer wanted to do.

Major Scar is going to take his last grenade.

It should be the last wish of the chief not to die under the bayonet of the Japanese army.

Sadly throwing away the rifle with no bullets in his hand, the young soldier groped in the dark and dragged the last three seriously wounded who were still slightly breathing from the other two bullet craters.

Looking at the officer with only one arm, he reluctantly stroked the young face of his comrade who was only breathing weakly, and muttered to himself: "Brothers, I'm sorry, I can't save you, in order to prevent you from being tortured by the devil, I can only bring you You go on the road together, you guys, don't blame me!"

The young soldier couldn't bear to watch, lowered his head and turned slightly sideways.

Crack!

However, the back of the head was hit hard, and he turned his head in disbelief. What remained in the soldier's last field of vision was Major Scar withdrew his only hand.

In the darkness, he couldn't see his officer's eyes clearly, and he didn't have time to think about why he did this. Severe dizziness struck, and the surviving soldier fell to the ground without saying a word.

3 minutes after the gunfire stopped.

The Japanese army finally surrounded them.

A major sitting in a shell crater, hugging three wounded soldiers who barely moved, stared at the surrounding Japanese soldiers.

"Kill him!" The Japanese commander gritted his teeth.

Apparently, the Japanese army who also killed red eyes did not intend to catch them alive.

The only way to respond to death is death.

A group of Japanese soldiers just raised their guns.

Blue smoke rose from the major's arms.

Without shouting slogans or cursing, the Chinese soldier with a broken arm just sat quietly with his arms around his own.

His soldiers have completed their mission, and now, he, the officer, is also fulfilling what he once promised to them: "I will always be with you!"

Although there are many delays, this commitment is fulfilled.

All Japanese troops retreated.

Looking solemnly at the Chinese officer who closed his eyes.

"Boom!" With a sound, the rain of blood splashed.

There was no smile of victory on the faces of the Japanese infantry. They occupied the position, but they did not defeat the army.

Many people lowered their heads slightly to show respect for the fighting style chosen by the last Chinese soldier on the ground.

He used his own flesh and blood to shoot towards his enemy!
