Glorious Mission 1937

Chapter 65: The Tragedy of the Bloody Lonely City

() The "Boom Boom Boom" battle is still going on. Both Wang Zihan and Murakami Taro are very clear about their mission. One side is eager to rescue the besieged Abe Kihide's troops, and the other side is ordered to defend, even if it is the last person left. The prairie wolf flag must also fly on the battlefield.Both sides received orders to die, and the spear and the shield fought desperately in a palm-sized area in Xinpingbao.

Compared with the Japanese army, Wang Zihan's first battalion has the right time and place, and has a certain advantage in firepower, but its strength is only more than 1000 people, which is one-eighth of the Japanese puppet army, and more importantly, the first battalion lacks With the strong support of artillery, the whole battalion has only two small-caliber mortars and more than a dozen grenade launchers.

However, the Japanese army has a full artillery brigade of powerful artillery, more than a dozen 75mm mountain guns and a large number of mortars. The power of the artillery far exceeds that of Wang Zihan's first battalion.Therefore, after the battle began, Wang Zihan wisely ordered Yiying's only two mortars to be hidden and on standby. Without an order, the target must not be exposed.

Wang Zihan is not in a hurry now, although the Japanese army's two attacks have caused a lot of casualties to the first building. According to the data reported by the four company commanders just now, a total of 72 people were killed in battle, and another 118 people were injured and lost troops. 190 people, including 2 officers and 3 non-commissioned officers.

However, seeing the corpses of the puppet army in front of the position, the number of casualties will definitely not be less than 1000. Counting the injured soldiers, the loss of the puppet army should be between 2000 and 10, and the casualty ratio between the enemy and the enemy is 1. : [-], this data is still very powerful.

Wang Zihan was from the Northeast Army, and he has dealt with the Japanese Army not once or twice.He is well aware of how amazing this ratio is. Originally, he was slightly dissatisfied with Chen Feng who only appointed him a major and battalion commander. You must know that after 31 years, he is already a captain and company commander. If he did not leave the Northeast Army , now at least should be a lieutenant colonel deputy or colonel commander.

But after experiencing the two attacks of the Japanese puppet army just now, Wang Zihan is happy. Such a powerful army, let alone commanding only one battalion, is worth it even as a company commander. Nainai, it is really enjoyable.Under the attack of more than 8000 Japanese and puppet troops, not only did they hold their positions, but they also severely injured the enemy, which was much better than staying in the Northeast Army to relieve their anger.

Thinking of the 30 Northeast Army retreating to the pass in a panic after receiving an order from their superiors, and handing over three thousand miles of beautiful mountains and rivers to the Japanese, Wang Zihan felt a burst of blood in his heart.

Like all officers and soldiers of the Northeast Army, Wang Zihan did not think that the Northeast Army could defeat Ri himself.The fall of the Northeast was not due to the fact that the army was not good at fighting, but it was caused by the high-level Northeast Army and the Nationalist government's misjudgment of the current situation. They pinned their hopes on the Western powers, but they didn't know that those guys and the Japanese were basically the same.

After learning that they withdrew to the pass, Ri himself committed all kinds of crimes by burning, killing, looting and looting in the northeast. His parents, wife and children were also brutally killed by Ri himself under the old elm tree at the east end of the village. There is only one purpose in life, and that is to fight against the sun and kill devils, to avenge parents, wives, children, and thousands of folks, and then take his brothers back to their hometown in a dignified manner.

Murakami Taro, the former enemy commander of the Japanese army, did not know that his opponent was a former officer of the Northeast Army, but this did not prevent the Japanese army commander from respecting his opponent.

Unlike other Japanese military officers, Murakami Taro has never underestimated the Chinese. Although the Chinese army has performed extremely badly since the Japanese Qing War (the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War), it has fought against the Anti-Japanese League in the Northeast. Taro Murakami, who has been living for more than four years, knows that the Chinese people are not as miserable as those politicians advertised, and many of their resisters are far more difficult than imagined, whether it is Zhao Shangzhi in North Manchuria, Yang Jingyu in South Manchuria, or Zhou Baozhong and Li Zhaolin were commanders not inferior to senior officers of the Imperial Army.

Since the first battle of Tianzhen, Murakami Taro has had an ominous premonition that another powerful resistance army was born.But he didn't expect that this Chinese army would be so difficult to deal with. The Imperial Japanese Army suffered setbacks one after another in less than a month, especially the Du Li Mixed First Brigade where he was now.

You must know that 75% of the soldiers of Du Li's mixed first brigade are newly recruited supplementary soldiers, and the officers are almost all transferred from outside. In the first battle of Tianzhen, Du Li's mixed first brigade was the command center He suffered a devastating blow, from the brigade commander, Major General Sakai Koji, down to the Sergeant Cao Cao, almost lost everything, and there were only three officers left including him and above the major.

Looking at the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood on the front line, Murakami Taro shuddered. He had been in the army for so many years, and it was not uncommon for him to lose a big battle, but it was the first time he had encountered such a tragic battle like today.

This was only an hour before the start of the battle, but with just two charges, the casualties of the troops exceeded his expectations.

"Toyoda-san, how about the casualties of the troops?" Looking at the major with a broken arm in front of him, Taro Murakami didn't know how to comfort him. Even if they won this battle, Toyoda Iwajiro would be forced to retire, which means The military career of this promising army major was coming to an end soon.

"Report to the Chief of Staff, the Second Battalion killed 549 people and injured 234 people. The First Division of the Imperial Association Army suffered more than [-] casualties." Major Toyoda said in shame. As an officer, the battle has reached this level. The direct commander of the former enemy is duty-bound.

"Mr. Toyota, don't blame yourself. You have tried your best. I will explain the situation to Lieutenant General Tojo, so that even if you retire, you can still receive the treatment of the emperor's warrior."

"Thank you Chief of Staff!"

"Report, His Excellency Commander Tojo sent an urgent order, ordering our department to step up our offensive efforts. We must take Xinping Fort within half an hour. Special smoke can be used if necessary. The No.15 brigade du li mixed is heading north. A We can be here in half an hour."

After listening to the radio operator's report, all the officers in the command post fell silent. Having experienced the battle just now, they knew very well how tenacious the Chinese army on the opposite side was. It took half an hour to defeat them and occupy the position. What an international joke .

"My lords, it seems that Your Excellency Abe is about to be unable to hold on. For the sake of the Japanese Empire and His Majesty the Emperor, it is time for us soldiers to dedicate our lives to our country. Order: The Sixth Artillery Battalion will immediately attack the Chinese position for 15 minutes. For bombardment, you are authorized to use 30 special artillery shells. The first brigade will all put on biochemical combat uniforms, and launch an attack on the Chinese position immediately after the bombardment, success or failure depends on it, please!"

"Hay!"

"His Majesty Onboard (Long Live)"

"Big Japanese Imperial Army Onboard (Long Live)"

..............

"boom boom"

The artillery shells of the Japanese army raged on the defenders' positions as if they didn't need money. Since there were no anti-explosion holes, the soldiers of the first battalion could only lie in the trenches and persist in enduring. This was a test of will and death, and it was also The fastest way for recruits to transform into iron-blooded warriors.

"Boom" A shell exploded near the command post of the first battalion. In order to protect the battalion commander Wang Zihan, two young guards were killed.

Even so, Wang Zihan himself was also injured, a piece of shrapnel got stuck in his abdomen, and a [-] cm long opening was pulled open in his abdomen, and his intestines could be seen faintly.

The hygienist immediately came to bandage him, and planned to send him off the ground for surgery.After all, such shrapnel can easily cause wound inflammation. In this era, wound inflammation is a very dangerous thing, and it is easy to kill people.

"Don't worry about me, my life is hard, I can't die! Order the companies to prepare for battle. After the bombardment, the little devil's attack will start. Let them stand up to me. The third attack is the most dangerous. After five times, the little devil's attack It will become weaker, and the little devil's attack will stop up to eight times!" Wang Zihan hurriedly said, enduring the severe pain.

This time, the little devil’s shelling was particularly violent. For 15 minutes, the simple positions built by the defenders were completely destroyed, and the defenders of the four companies also suffered a lot of casualties. The two deputy platoon leaders of the company were killed, the deputy company commander of the fourth company was seriously injured, and a large number of ordinary soldiers were injured and killed. Of course, they didn't know that the battalion commander Wang Zihan was also seriously injured, and only the soldiers in the concrete bunkers were not injured.

But when they thought the shelling of the Japanese army was over, after a few sounds of "咻咻咻", dozens of shells hit the defender's position again.

"Lie down" "Lie down" After an urgent sound of lying down, the soldiers on the ground were surprised to find that none of the shells fired by the little devil this time exploded, but wisps of smoke came out.

Could it be duck eggs (duds)?But it shouldn't be, one dud in dozens of shells is already awesome, how could there be dozens of duds in a row.

Suddenly several soldiers felt dizzy for a while, and then they wobbled and fell to the ground.Li Haiping, the commander of the third company, suddenly thought of something, and then shouted loudly: "It's a gas bomb, put on the gas mask quickly, and prepare to fight! The little devil is coming up soon!"

After being reminded by Li Haiping, the soldiers immediately remembered what the teacher and the battalion had told them about the little devil's gas bomb, and one by one hurriedly took out their gas masks and put them on their heads.

Although Li Haiping discovered it early and the first battalion had prepared a large number of gas masks in advance, due to lack of experience, this shelling still caused huge casualties, especially the last gas bomb, which poisoned a large number of wounded who were too late to send off the battlefield. Death, and many slow-response soldiers were also hit, and one-third of the soldiers were lost in one fell swoop.

However, before the soldiers had any more thoughts, and before they had time to grieve for the dead comrades in arms, the sharp whistle sounded again on the battlefield.
