Age of Rebirth

Lieutenant General Yoshinaga, the commander of the border garrison of the Kwantung Army, did not feel that there was anything wrong with the decision to allow more than 2 wounded soldiers to stay and block the independent divisions that would surely chase after him. War, brutal war.

More than 2 wounded soldiers are the biggest burden for the border guards to transfer to the Far East battlefield. It not only slows down the marching speed of the troops, but more importantly, it also affects the morale of the soldiers. Marching with blood-stained companions moaning in pain is a great torture to the soldiers' physical strength and spirit. Even if the independent division troops don't pursue them, the hundreds of kilometers of marching distance from Outer Mongolia to the Far East will still torture the soldiers crazy.

Therefore, after making this decision, Lieutenant General Yoshinaga felt a sense of relief in his heart, as if he had thrown away a heavy burden. More than 2 Kwantung Army wounded soldiers were placed on the Gobi Desert, empty Looking at the more than 6 companions gradually going away, until the figure disappeared in the steaming ground air current, the breath of despair permeated the hearts of every wounded Kwantung Army soldier. They knew that being abandoned was ruthless. Abandoned!

Unlike the despair of the soldiers, Colonel Suzuki, who was appointed as the commander of the wounded soldiers, seemed extraordinarily excited. This fanatical militarist had a sense of mission when he was in danger. The splinters cut a wide gash through the wounded leg and called together the ranks of officers in the wounded corps.

What Suzuki wants to arrange is one thing, "Masters, don't be dejected. It is a great honor for us to stay. It proves that we still have the opportunity and ability to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and the Great Japanese Empire. Now I order, All the wounded soldiers are reorganized according to the formation of the brigade, and you are the brigade captain and squadron leader, we will definitely be able to kill the Chinese soldiers who are chasing up with maximum damage!"

A major with a broken leg, with a pale face and confused eyes, asked, "Master Suzuki, what do we rely on to stop the pursuit of the Chinese troops? Just rely on the rifles and grenades in our hands?" ?”

Dazuo Suzuki smiled ferociously, and replied: "Yes, but you have missed the most important point, which is the spirit of the samurai of the Great Japanese Empire. Every soldier of the Empire, including me, must be covered with grenades, and , no need to build fortifications, just lay there scattered. When the Chinese soldiers came, they immediately rang the grenades on their bodies, and died together with the Chinese soldiers. There are more than 2 imperial warriors. Think about it. How much damage can be caused to the Chinese soldiers casualties?"

Suzuki Osamu is even more vicious than Lieutenant General Yoshinaga. More than 2 wounded soldiers were treated as human bombs by him. According to Suzuki Osamu's plan, he exchanged lives for lives. Even if the ratio is one to one, there are at least 2 independent divisions Soldier.Will fall in the explosion of the grenade. Optimistically, I am afraid that there will be more than 5 casualties on the battlefield of the Independent Division. Thinking about it, Suzuki was trembling with excitement.

At the same time, Mr. Suzuki is also smart.He didn't order these wounded soldiers to build fortifications. They were all wounded with missing arms and legs. They were repairing fortifications on the Gobi Desert where the surface temperature was so hot. Will die of exhaustion or thirst.

therefore.Suzuki's next order was even simpler, "Masters, tell the soldiers of the empire that when those Chinese soldiers are in front of you, don't move, keep your strength, and don't shoot back. I need it. That is, every warrior of His Majesty the Emperor has the physical strength to pull the grenade on his body, that's all, gentlemen, let's arrange it immediately, we don't have much time left!"

Ever since, on the desolate Gobi Desert in Outer Mongolia, under the fire-breathing sun, more than 2 Kwantung Army wounded soldiers lay on the hot ground like dead fish in a dry pond, staring at the sky with empty eyes , desperate and determined, what is muttering in his mouth?

The front line of the pursuit troops directly under the corps was Liu Hongzhang's first brigade and Chu Ziye's fourth brigade, two mechanized infantry brigades, lined up in a row, advancing side by side, with hundreds of tanks in front, the tracks rolled up the dust all over the sky, Behind them are countless infantry and artillery, and behind them are hundreds of thousands of main troops directly under the corps. The dust rolled up filled the Gobi Desert in Outer Mongolia, covering the sky and the sun, with a murderous aura!

However, in terms of speed, the speed of the pursuit troops directly under the corps is not fast. On the one hand, it is due to the limited road conditions in the Gobi Desert. Speed, not too fast!"

Major General Liu Hongzhang, the brigade commander of the first brigade, with his eyes slightly closed, rested his eyes in the armored command vehicle, his body swayed back and forth with the bumps of the vehicle, thinking about Chief of Staff Zhao's order in his head, "Interesting! Seeing that the little devil was beaten to a broken leg and he was not allowed to chase quickly, the use of troops by Chief of Staff Zhao is becoming more and more confusing?"

The armored command vehicle ran over a big rock and bumped violently. Liu Hongzhang opened his eyes and said thoughtfully: "Cheng Lin, what do you mean by Chief of Staff Zhao's order? Let's take it easy. Didn’t they drive the rest of the little devils into the mouths of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps troops? When the fight started, these guys tried their best to swipe into their mouths, making us the main force The brigade didn't get much oil and water, and at this moment, Chief of Staff Zhao still favors them?"

Colonel Liu Chenglin, Chief of Staff of the First Brigade, pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Chief of Staff Zhao may not mean that. I think it may be to allow the remnants of the Kwantung Army who broke out to have time to gather together for centralized annihilation. To avoid a fight, you will be chased all over the Gobi Desert!"

"Well, it makes sense!" Liu Hongzhang stretched out his thumb and praised Liu Chenglin. At this moment, a military jeep almost bounced over on the gravel-covered Gobi Desert, following the march of the vanguard group, Colonel Gao Jingkun, the former deputy brigade commander, jumped off the jeep and came towards the armored command vehicle of the brigade headquarters.

Liu Hongzhang hurriedly asked the driver to stop, and soon; Liu Chenglin jumped out of the car together, went up to meet him in a few steps, and asked anxiously: "Jing Kun, the first group was blocked by the little devils? But why didn't I hear the gunshots?" ah!"

Gao Jingkun first took out the kettle, took a sip of water, wiped his mouth and said, "Brigade commander, Cheng Lin, found a large number of little devils, but there were quite a few of them, but they didn't stop them, and they didn't find any fortifications. On the Gobi Desert, it looked like a corpse, but it was definitely not a corpse. It was very likely that it was the wounded soldier of the little devil. I was worried that there was a fraud in it, so I ordered the vanguard to stop one kilometer away from the little devil. You report the situation!"

"Huh?" Liu Hongzhang frowned in confusion, and said, "Jing Kun, are you sure it's the little devil's wounded soldier?"

"Sure, I can see clearly through the binoculars that they are all blood-stained wounded soldiers with missing arms and legs!" Gao Jingkun replied.

Just when the three chief officers of the first brigade couldn't figure out what was going on, the operator on the car poked his head out and shouted: "Brigade Commander, Brigadier Chu of the Fourth Brigade is calling and wants to talk to you!"

Liu Hongzhang picked up the walkie-talkie, and Chu Ziye's loud voice came over his ears, "I said that big man Liu, my vanguard, encountered a strange situation, and there were many little devils and wounded soldiers everywhere. Lying on the Gobi desert like a dead fish, neither building fortifications nor shooting to stop it, this thing is quite evil! I can't figure out the depth, and the troops stopped chasing. Let me ask, are there any encounters there? To such a situation?"

Liu Hongzhang was happy, and replied: "Chu has a loud voice, I thought it was only my first brigade who encountered something evil, and the same thing, there are also wounded soldiers with little devils lying everywhere!"

"What are you going to do?" Chu Ziye asked.

"What about you, what do you want to do?" Liu Hongzhang kicked the ball to Chu Ziye again.

On the other end of the walkie-talkie, Chu Ziye curled his lips and said: "You big man Liu still has to ask me for advice. The rules of our independent division do not keep prisoners of little devils. Besides, we don't take prisoners for little devils." I'm used to it, I really can't make up my mind, let's ask Chief of Staff Zhao for instructions!"

Liu Hongzhang was not happy, and said: "You have such a bad idea with a big voice? When you encounter a wounded soldier of a little devil, you will report it to the Chief of Staff Zhao. You and I will definitely show mercy. You can't become a prisoner storage team!"

"Then send a company to find out the depth? See what tricks the little devils are playing? We can't be blocked by the wounded soldiers of these little devils!" Chu Ziye came up with an idea.

"What are you thinking? Let our soldiers take risks. Sending a company of mortar shells is almost the same. By the way, Lao Chu, just use mortar shells to bombard him, and everything will come out! Let's all go ahead and have a look Go!" Liu Hongzhang disagreed, and came up with an idea.

Chu Ziye screamed again and again, "I said big man Liu, you are really talented. My old Chu is convinced, and I can come up with such an idea! What if Chief of Staff Zhao asks? There must be a unified caliber, right? !"

Liu Hongzhang said in a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "Chu has a big voice, where have you fought for so many years? Why are you living more and more unpromisingly? It's not easy. The little devil is going to stop us , Then, the howitzer and the tank gun, the shells smashed through, and the passage was opened! Is it possible that Chief of Staff Zhao still checks one by one, is it the wounded soldier of the little devil?"

Chu Ziye blushed when he was trained by Liu Hongzhang, and said: "Success! Just follow your idea, order the artillery and tanks to prepare for the shelling, and if the wounded soldiers of the little devil have any tricks, they will immediately wait for the shells!"

Both Liu Hongzhang and Chu Ziye were skilled veterans on the battlefield. They knew the little bezoars and dogs in the stomachs of Japanese soldiers very well, and they had suffered losses before, so they didn't believe it at all. The wounded soldiers of the Kwantung Army are honestly waiting to be captured. If so, they are not little devils?
