The opening of the bright sword leads a battalion

Chapter 16 The Revenge of the Devil Chief of Staff
The next day.

Early in the morning, just after dawn, the Japanese artillery began to roar.

The Japanese infantry even began to charge, and as soon as they came up, they put a lot of pressure on the positions of the new regiment.

Li Yunlong saw that the Sakata devil was in a hurry, and couldn't help wondering what happened to the signal flare last night, but he didn't have time to think about it at the moment.

Because with the large-scale offensive of the Japanese army, the casualties of the new regiment began to increase, and the pressure on each position became very high.

"Pillar, pillar, mortar, shoot me that heavy machine gun, damn it, yes, that's it!"

"Zhuzi, come here, kill that devil officer for me, that guy is just jumping around with a machine gun, I'm not happy to see that!"

"Pillar! Where are the people?"

Li Yunlong kept jumping and yelling on the battlefield, and even Chu Qi heard it in the end.Hearing this, he paid attention to the target Li Yunlong was referring to.

He found that the targets Li Yunlong was referring to were those devils who fired the most fierce machine guns and caused the most casualties to the Eighth Route Army.So, after that, every time Li Yunlong pointed at a target, Chu Qi tried to shoot.

Although some targets were out of Chu Qi's range, after all, the range of rifles was much shorter than that of mortars. Mortars could hit them, but rifles might not.

But sometimes, the enemy is within range.

No, the devils have a machine gun point set very forward for some reason, but the rifle is difficult to shoot, so Li Yunlong had no choice but to call for the pillar.

Wang Chengzhu had just calculated the distance, adjusted to shoot Zhu Yuan, and was just about to pick up the shells.

But at this time, before the shells entered the chamber, the devil who was hundreds of meters away was knocked down with a "bang".Seeing this, the sub-shooter next to the Devil's machine gunner wanted to make up for it, but Chu Qi fired another shot, and the sub-shooter fell to the ground immediately after.

"Great job, it's so damn accurate, who did it?"

When Li Yunlong saw it, he couldn't help but praise him.Hearing this, Chu Qi's deputy battalion commander not far away said:

"Our Battalion Commander Chu did it!"

Li Yunlong listened, nodded, and said:

"Well done, tell him, when we go back, I, Lao Li, will invite you, Battalion Commander Chu, to drink, and I still have half a catty of sweet potatoes to burn!"

Then, he took another look at the battle situation. The momentum of the charging devils had been stopped, and it seemed that the devils were about to retreat.

In Li Yunlong's binoculars, he was always staring at the command post of the Sakata Regiment. Seeing the Japanese army retreating, he couldn't help thinking.

"Zhuzi, you said yesterday that advancing 500 meters will definitely blow up the command post, right?"

Hearing this, Wang Chengzhu nodded quickly, but he glanced at the cannon in his hand, and there were only two shells left in this cannon.

If you tell the head of this... the head will be angry.Wang Chengzhu thought for a while, if he pushed forward 500 meters, he was still very sure that he could kill the command post within two shells.

Since this is the case... I don't want to tell the head of the group, if I do, I will be scolded.

Li Yunlong at the side didn't know what Wang Chengzhu was thinking, he thought about it, gritted his teeth, and said:

"Then let's go, while the devils' charge is frustrated and retreating, Xinyi regiment, the whole regiment will mount bayonets, trumpeter, blow the charge!"

Hearing this, the trumpeter raised his head and blew the charge horn. Hearing the sound of the charge horn, the battalion commanders of each battalion glanced at Li Yunlong's side and organized a charge one after another.

Under the organization of each battalion commander, all the soldiers of the new regiment waved their flags and shouted, rushed out of the trenches alternately, and killed the devils.

……

the other side.

The Japanese attack was frustrated, which made Sakata very angry. In his anger, he couldn't help but slap the chief of staff beside him.

"Baga, didn't you say that the Eighth Route Army had run out of ammunition and food, so they asked for help? Why is the firepower still so fierce?!"

Hearing this, the chief of staff covered his face, seeing that Sakata was getting angry, he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to bow quickly and apologized:
"Damn, it's the subordinate's dereliction of duty!"

Sakata Shintetsu listened, his face paled a little, but he was still very angry.But at this time, a major staff officer hurried in from the outside and said:

"Sir, the Eighth Route Army suddenly started attacking. Our soldiers were caught up by the Eighth Route Army before they could retreat to their positions. Now the enemy and us are at war!"

Hearing this, Sakata Shinzhe was surprised:
"Balu still dare to attack?"

"With the well-trained combat power of our army, the Eight Route Army should have no advantage in hand-to-hand combat, right?"

The staff officer was flustered, hurriedly stood at attention and bowed, saying:
"Actually... that's not the case."

"I don't know when many melee masters popped out from the Eight Routes. Groups of three or five are killing the enemy, and our army is retreating quickly..."

Sakata was surprised: "... Nani?"

Hearing this, he couldn't believe it.When did a group of melee masters emerge from the Eighth Route Army?
At the same time, he was also very angry.

In anger, he raised his hand and overturned the table beside him.As if he was still angry, Sakata glared at the chief of staff beside him, feeling very upset, he kicked the chief of staff hard.

While kicking, he said:
"Get out, get out of here, Ba Ga, Ba Ga! Who told you that the Eighth Route Army is out of ammunition and food, is this the f*ck out of ammunition and food, Ba Ga!!!"

The chief of staff was kicked hard and fell far away. He felt his thigh go numb from the pain.

But Sakata on the side was getting angry, the chief of staff didn't dare to say anything, seeing that Sakata was coming to beat him, the chief of staff had to get up quickly, bowed and apologized continuously, and endured the series of slaps from Sakata.

After being punched and kicked one after another, Sakata yelled "Get out", and the chief of staff did not dare to answer, so he was kicked out of the command post by the joint leader.

When he left, the chief of staff was still weak in his legs and walked with a limp.

"..."

But shortly after walking out of the command post—

With a "whoosh" sound, a shell hit the antenna above the command post and blew up the antenna.

Seeing this, the chief of staff was taken aback, and quickly lay down on the ground to avoid the artillery fire.

And looking at the rocks blown away by shells, the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army has always been precious, and there is no reason to use it casually.

And this, that is to say, the enemy's target is not actually this antenna.

It's... Command!

Guessing that this was the enemy's real target, he struggled to get up, and he was anxious to run back to the command post to inform Captain Sakata.

But when it was 40 meters away from the command post——

A shell fell again.

The time gap with the previous shot was less than five seconds.

"Boom-long!!"

This time, there was no deviation at all. The shell landed directly on the top of the command post and exploded in the air, blowing the command into ruins and collapsing.

Seeing that the command post had collapsed, the chief of staff hurried forward and looked through the remains in the command post. All the people inside were breathless.

"...a captain of the regiment, a deputy captain of the lieutenant, a major, and several staff officers and telegraph operators in the regiment. All the senior officers in the regiment are dead like this?"

The chief of staff trembled in fear.When he spoke, his voice and lips trembled.

After all, he almost became one of these charred corpses just now, and almost died here.

However, after the trembling was over, the chief of staff noticed it and said happily:

"...Wait, the captain and deputy captain are all dead. Doesn't it mean that I am now the person with the highest rank and position in the entire Bantian regiment?"

Thinking of this, the chief of staff was unexpectedly ecstatic.

Immediately afterwards, he spat on Sakata's body, laughed loudly and said:

"Hahaha, Alliance Captain, Alliance Captain, thank you for kicking me. It's a pity——you are dead now, hahahaha!"

He kicked Sakata's body a few more times vigorously. At this moment, Sakata was completely changed.

After venting, the chief of staff turned and left with a smile. He was going to command the battle of the entire wing.

——Sakata died, and each brigade lost its backbone. According to the wartime regulations, I should temporarily take over Sakata's position and command the entire regiment.

And the entire regiment received an order from Commander Yoshio Shinozuka to encircle and wipe out the headquarters of the Xinyi Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. He had to decide whether the Sakata Regiment should continue to implement this order, or... retreat.
