Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1263 The Heavy Cannon Is Lost (First Update!)

1273
"Retreat, we can't stay here any longer, retreat immediately!" Colonel Watanabe decided.

The adjutant next to him immediately reminded: "What about the heavy artillery unit? They asked us to stick to our positions and protect those heavy artillery!"

General Watanabe scolded angrily: "Bageya Road, although those heavy artillery are very important to him. But to us, the soldiers under his command are equally important~"

"The Eighth Route Army is obviously using their mortar groups as bait to attract us to attack, and then surround and annihilate us here!"

"We must not let their goals come true. The troops retreat immediately, and withdraw now!"

"Also, don't forget, we are not the subordinates of the captain of the heavy artillery regiment, and we have no obligation to obey his orders!"

"But as a friendly army, we need to tell them our next move. Then go to a staff officer and tell them that the Eighth Route Army is coming from all directions to surround and annihilate us. If we continue to defend our positions, not only the heavy artillery regiment will be wiped out, but our infantry regiment will also be destroyed." The team will also be wiped out here!"

"Only by retreating can our soldiers survive!"

"I suggest that they give up all the heavy artillery and quickly retreat with the gunners. They can't stay here any longer, or they won't be able to withdraw if they want to!"

After finishing speaking, Colonel Watanabe began to arrange for his subordinates to retreat.

"Heavy machine gun cover, comrades, kill me~" A company commander shouted a few hundred meters away.

"Da da da……"

Three heavy machine guns fired violently, and the more than 30 devils in the front were immediately crushed and couldn't lift their heads.

More than 100 soldiers, armed with five light machine guns, rushed forward screaming while shooting.

"Boom boom boom..."

Even the infantry's three grenadiers directly under the small artillery squad were not idle.

The three gunners fired a round of three grenades after simply aiming.

The explosion sounded, and dozens of devils lying on the ground were killed and injured four or five people on the spot, including a machine gun team!
"Comrades, come with me...the little devils are about to run away, we can stop them by killing the dozens of devils in front~"

Holding his pistol, the company commander was the first to charge towards the devil!
After arranging the troops to stay behind, General Watanabe retreated in embarrassment under the protection of the guards.

Just now, the wing was attacked in another direction.

In just a few minutes, the army was surrounded by the Eighth Route Army on three sides, and the gunshots were getting closer and closer.

More importantly, the remaining few artillery pieces of the rapid-fire artillery squadron were targeted by the Eighth Route Army as soon as they were sent to the battlefield.

Twenty mortars stared at them, and in less than a minute, the two artillery squads and dozens of infantry around them were completely blown up.

An infantry wing of the imperial army is equipped with a rapid-fire artillery squadron, the only unit that can pose a direct threat to armored vehicles.Now that the guns are gone, the remaining few armored vehicles of the Eighth Route Army are invincible.

No one knows how long it will take for the Eighth Route Army with armored vehicles and artillery cover to kill themselves.

Mr. Watanabe is also afraid of death, and he doesn't want to die here!Therefore, it was very embarrassing when retreating, and I wished I could leave here immediately.

"Sir, the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army are coming!" Colonel Watanabe was more afraid of whatever he would come, and the fearful report of his subordinates suddenly sounded behind him.

"Boom~"

Immediately afterwards, the roar of the huge engine of the armored vehicle also faintly spread to his ears.

"Bageyalu, why did they come so fast!" Colonel Watanabe also panicked, and then pretended to be calm and cursed.

After cursing, he ordered: "Adjutant, draw another infantry squadron to the rear ~ other troops retreat, the faster the better!"

The Japanese Army's Heavy Artillery Regiment was stationed, and the signal troops sent by General Watanabe had not yet arrived.But the sound of guns getting closer and closer made Captain Da Zuo Lian faintly feel that the heavy artillery in front of him might not be able to keep it.

"Sir, our regiment leader asked you to lead people to retreat immediately, the position can no longer be defended, and our regiment leader has already begun to retreat!" The panting communication soldier reported as soon as he rushed over.

The captain of the Dazuo United was very dissatisfied and scolded: "Bage Yalu, didn't you let him have time?"

"There are so many heavy artillery, and there are the most advanced howitzers in the empire. Once it falls into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, we will become sinners of the empire!"

The communications soldier hesitated and replied, "Sir, calm down!"

"Our regiment leader said that the Eighth Route Army's offensive is too fierce. With artillery and armored vehicles, we can't defend even if we stick to it. At that time, dozens of heavy artillery will also fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. Our Watanabe regiment and thousands of gunners will also I will be buried with you!"

"Retreat now, at least a few thousand soldiers can save their lives!"

"Since these heavy artillery will fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army in both ways, why don't we retreat now and save a few thousand imperial troops first!"

The captain of the Dazuo United was silent for a long time without speaking.

"Da da da~"

Suddenly, a string of bullets fired by the armored vehicle flew towards this side.

Although there was no power left, two guards not far away were still hit by bullets and fell to the ground screaming.

"Sir, if you don't retreat, it will be too late!" The anxious communication soldier next to him immediately reminded.

"The armored troops of the Eighth Route Army have already killed them. We don't have rapid-fire guns, and we can't stop their offensive at all!"

The tangled captain finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Retreat, all retreat..."

In the command post where the head of the Kato Division is located, several horse lanterns illuminate the interior brightly.

Five or six combat staff officers and communications staff officers came and went in a hurry in the small headquarters, very busy.

"Sir, the Watanabe Regiment reports that the Eighth Route Army's offensive is very fierce, and a large number of artillery and armored vehicles are concentrated to attack them. The troops suffered heavy losses and are retreating in an orderly manner!"

"Sir, the heavy artillery unit has also begun to retreat!"

"Sir, the Field Artillery Regiment was attacked by the Mountain Artillery Group of the Eighth Route Army. They suffered heavy losses and almost lost their combat effectiveness!"

"The position of the heavy artillery group has been occupied by the Eighth Route Army!"

"Stop!" Division Chief Kato, who had been listening only silently, suddenly interrupted.

Then he stared at the communications staff officer and asked, "What did you just say?"

"The heavy artillery positions are occupied by the Eighth Route Army!" the communications staff repeated.

"Baga!" Division Chief Kato finally heard clearly, and then yelled.

"Are they all a bunch of stupid pigs? With so many troops, they can't even hold a heavy artillery position! Doesn't Mr. Watanabe know that without heavy artillery, we can only be passively beaten under the heavy artillery attack of the Eighth Route Army?"

"Order Colonel Watanabe to counterattack immediately and regain the heavy artillery position. The heavy artillery must not be lost, and it must not fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. Otherwise, the Eighth Route Army will become stronger and stronger, and our strength will become weaker and weaker. It's very bad for us!"
