Chapter 627 Shame Culture

Adachi 23 realized that something was wrong when he heard Uetake's report on the enemy's situation.

It was the staff officer of the 23th Regiment who called Anda 226. At this time, Uetake was busy directing the battle and couldn't spare himself to make a call.

The problem with Shangzhu’s 226th Regiment is that most of its troops are deployed outside the city... There are two passages outside the city, and each passage has a brigade, and there are more than 1000 troops deployed inside the city. But those were mostly wing artillery squadrons, infantry artillery squadrons, and transport squadrons, etc., especially the muzzles of these artillery were aimed at the passages outside the city, so as soon as the Eighth Route Army tanks rushed into the city gate, Shangzhu found that he had There are almost no soldiers available.

It is impossible to transfer the artillery squadron to fight the tanks, right? The regiment artillery is equipped with mountain artillery and [-] infantry artillery. Using them to deal with tanks is almost like courting death.

So Shangzhu was very busy, and he transferred his guards to the top of the city to fight, and even he himself stood at the top of the city with a pistol.

Shangzhu hoped to take advantage of the condescending advantage of the city wall to delay the advance speed of the Eighth Route Army a little so that the reinforcements could arrive. After all, the city wall was facing the back of the Eighth Route Army at this time, and the Eighth Route Army had to clear them before moving on.

But it turns out that Kamitake was thinking too much.

The Eighth Route Army's attack was divided into two sides, that is, the front and back of the city wall attacked at the same time.

Wang Xuexin had already considered this point: the tanks poured in from the city gate, followed the infantry behind the tanks, and as soon as they passed the city gate, they would point their backs at the muzzles of the devils on the city wall.

Although there are not many devils on the city wall, as long as the devils set up a few machine guns or throw grenades from the city wall to the gate of the city, the soldiers can suffer considerable casualties.

On the other hand, the city gate is small and needs space for the tanks to pass through first. If a swarm of bees enters through the city gate, it is likely that they will be blocked at the city gate and cannot move.

Therefore, any task of the reconnaissance company is to attack from the front.

When the tank troops broke through the city gate and rushed into the city one after another, the reconnaissance company, led by the monk, "threw hoes" at the foot of the city wall.

The so-called "throwing a hoe" refers to throwing an engineer's shovel.

The reconnaissance company is equipped with a multifunctional engineer shovel that can climb the city wall. Because the engineer shovel is a hoe in the dialect of the soldiers, the tactic of throwing the engineer shovel to hook the city is called "throwing the hoe".

The soldiers of the reconnaissance company usually do this kind of training, and it has even become one of the entertainments of the soldiers of the reconnaissance company when they are free... When they have nothing to do, they play with hoes, hooking branches, roofs, and city walls, it depends on who The hook is accurate and fast, and the loser will get a cigarette.

Because they played a lot, the soldiers threw their "hoes" up, and almost all of them hit the top of the wall.

There were not many devils at the top of the city, there were only two teams of more than 100 people, plus it was in the dark and their attention was attracted by the tanks of the Eighth Route Army breaking into the city. Scout company soldiers.

In fact, even if it is found, it is useless.

Because after the tanks entered the city, the infantry immediately followed the steps in the city to attack the top of the city, and the devils could care about one side but not the other side.

Then, as soon as the monk and the others climbed up the city wall, they announced that the battle was coming to an end. They swept the devil's back with their submachine guns, and the devil fell to the ground screaming.

Monks still like to use box cannons.

He likes the reason why he likes it, because the monk only needs to hold the rope with one hand and coordinate with the movements of his feet to climb up, and with the other hand, he can hold the box cannon and aim at the city.

The monk said this: "We are hanging on the city wall without any cover. What if the devil finds our position and leans out to shoot? The submachine gun needs two hands to operate. I have a box gun in my hand. I can shoot with one." One, risk two and hit a pair!"

The monk's ability really came in handy on the battlefield. This time, he killed three devils who appeared in one go... The monk not only cared about his top, but also had devils who appeared next to him and couldn't escape him. Eye.

After climbing to the top of the city, the monk was even more like a tiger entering a herd of sheep. He held a box cannon in each hand and shot left and right. After a burst of "ba ba", five or six were knocked down in a blink of an eye.

Master Shangzhu saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly led the remnant soldiers to retreat to the tower for defense.

When Chief Uetake was organizing the defense, the staff asked for help from the headquarters without waiting for the command of the Colonel... In fact, from the very beginning, the staff should have reported the situation to the headquarters and asked for support.

However, the devils had a sense of superiority when fighting the Eighth Route Army. It should be said that they had a sense of superiority over the Huaxia Army. They believed that the combat effectiveness of the Huaxia Army was far inferior to the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army deserved victory, and defeat was an unforgivable shame.

This directly caused the pressure on both the imperial army and the Eighth Route Army to fight: if they were defeated, they would become the laughing stock of the entire army.

Therefore, when Kamitake and his staff were attacked by the Eighth Route Army, the first thing they thought of was not to report to Anda 23.

Because if it is reported immediately, it means that the shame has become a fait accompli.

If you don't report it and rely on your own strength to block the attack of the Eighth Route Army, then this incident is equivalent to not happening, so there is no shame.

Therefore, there is still such a situation in the devil's army on the battlefield. After losing a battle, it does not report to the superior until it gathers strength to regain the position again.

This has become the unspoken rule of the devils, or it can be said to be the "shame culture" of the devils.

It wasn't until this time that the staff officer saw that he couldn't hold on any longer, and if he didn't report to ask for reinforcements, he would lose his life, so he had to report.

Anda 23's headquarters was only curious about why the sound of artillery and gunfire at the South Gate became more intense. He also thought that the "violent bombardment by the enemy's sprayed bombs" reported by Uetake Osamu was becoming a reality.

Just as I was about to make a call to inquire, a call from the 226th Regiment came.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General!" The staff officer reported anxiously on the phone: "The Eighth Route Army has entered the city! Tanks, their tanks have entered the city!"

"What?" Anda 23 couldn't believe what he heard.

How can it be?

The south gate was tightly guarded, how could the enemy tanks suddenly appear without warning, and had already entered the city as soon as they appeared!
Adachi 23 will understand what the chief of staff said next.

"They came by boat from the salt lake!" The staff officer said, "As soon as they landed, they arrived at the gate of the city. Our army was unprepared, and the gate of the city has already fallen! Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, please send reinforcements as soon as possible!"

Anda 23's heart sank, he was stunned for a long time before he recovered, and cursed palely: "You bastard, you actually landed from the salt lake! You're too cunning!"
