When the ground attack was in full swing, there was a sound from the sky. Anyone with experience knew that it was a Japanese aircraft coming.

"Enemy aircraft, take cover!"

After the captain of the Japanese 11th Infantry Regiment contacted the headquarters in Taiyuan, Taiyuan quickly dispatched aircraft for air support.

However, Chen Shanhe's Second Independent Regiment had studied the lessons taught by Chen Shanhe himself during their daily study and training.

They all know how to lead the people under them to avoid the sight of the pilot on the plane, and how to hide themselves.

The offensive and defensive sides are not fair. If there is no external influence, the defensive side is often passive, while the offensive side can often choose to attack or not to attack?

You can choose when to attack at will.

Especially when the defender is trapped and unable to get out, he is like a turtle in a urn.

so.

The Second Independent Regiment hid itself when the plane came, so that the Japanese army could not find a point to bomb.

After hiding, looking down from a certain height in the air, the people on the ground are not much bigger than ants.

At first, the common people who were assigned to the veterans, whether they were men, women, young or old, saw the plane flying overhead, and when the veterans told them to lie down and take cover, they thought how could they lose sight if they lay down?

But when they obeyed the order, they found that the planes in the sky really seemed to be unable to see them, and more than a dozen planes roared past.

The plane circled several times, and everything was calm. They had no choice but to go back, or expand the scope of their inspection.

Then the captain of the 11th Infantry Regiment of the Japanese Army became desperate. Sometimes, if a person is not in desperate situation, he will always hope for someone to lend him a hand.

But if you are in a desperate situation... maybe even a rabbit can kick off an eagle!

When a wild boar gets into trouble or is injured, it will go crazy and fight to the death against its prey.

Black bears may be driven away by making loud noises before they are attacked.

Even if they are slightly attacked, they will be frightened and run away. However, if they are injured, black bears will go crazy and attack the hunters who want to kill them.

Little devils, if they are in a desperate situation, they may explode with a stronger combat psychology than ever before.

An idea of ​​​​sacrifice.

Perhaps to them this is called the spirit of Bushido.

Looking at the soldiers from both sides who started to shoot at each other from a distance, they looked through the telescope and saw that some sharpshooters often suddenly appeared on the other side's position. As long as they appeared, the ones who fell would always be their own firepower and those with more accurate marksmanship.

Hey...kill with one shot.

Our side's grenades and heavy machine guns were often destroyed by the opponent's sporadic mortars.

Moreover, the men, women, and children who did not even have military uniforms were everywhere on the other side, carrying guns, and when the people in front discharged the mines, they gradually moved forward.

The other party's gunfire kept ringing, and with the sound of gunfire, more and more people on his side fell faster and faster.

Both sides suffered casualties on each other, and the opposite side suffered more injuries, perhaps because it was not very good at evading.

But there are many people on the other side, and their marksmanship is actually pretty good. With all the heavy firepower and elite marksmen and sharpshooters on our side being suppressed, we can't fight one against ten or twenty.

Then it was gradually pressed up, without any room.

The captain of the 11th Regiment knew in his heart that perhaps in the future, there would no longer be the 11th Regiment of the 58th Division in the battle sequence of the Imperial Japanese Army.

However, maybe I can make a last-ditch effort, for no other reason than for the glory of the Imperial Warriors.

"Everyone, bayonets on!

For the sake of His Majesty the Emperor, for the glory of the empire, and for the spirit of the samurai, follow me and charge!"

One big leftist, two middle leftists, and a bunch of young leftists, holding command swords together, followed by a flag bearer, holding a tattered flag with a knotted yak on it, and a tassel, tassel and flagpole below.

In the middle is a flag, but the flag is in tatters.

Anyone who knows anything will know that this is the Japanese Army Regiment Flag. In the entire history of World War II, no participating country has successfully captured a Japanese Army Regiment Flag.

This was one of the flags that the participating countries most wanted to capture at that time, but if the Japanese army was in dire straits, their first choice would be to burn this flag first.

Because in the eyes of the Japanese army, this flag and this regiment flag represent the dignity and face of the Emperor and Japan.

In ancient my country, this was like the staff of the emperor's envoy, representing the dignity and face of a country.

But today.

The captain of the 11th Regiment was in a desperate situation. He actually did not let anyone burn the regiment flag. Instead, he had someone carry it and charge with them. Moreover, he launched a death charge.

No one knew why, but all the remaining Japanese troops were still ordered to rush towards the enemies outside the encirclement, dying to defend the dignity and honor of their warriors.

Like a wild boar in a desperate situation, it decides to fight the hunter to the death, perhaps thinking that even if it means death, it will bite off a piece of the enemy's flesh.

This kind of spirit is terrifying. This kind of spirit is generally only found in East Asian Confucian circles. It is a kind of bravery that is engraved in the bones.

This incomplete Japanese army unit, the Japanese troops charging in the front line had stepped on the mines, and the mines exploded one after another.

but.

Even though the Japanese soldiers in the front row who stepped on the mines were torn apart or exploded into bloody foam, the Japanese soldiers in the back row no longer seemed to be afraid, and they still bravely rushed into the minefield and detonated several landmines with themselves again.

The machine guns and grenade launchers at the rear were providing cover for the Japanese soldiers stepping on the mines. There may also be grenade launchers in the front row to bombard them with grenades to detonate the mines, but they were not able to be stepped on quickly enough.

The Japanese troops rushed out one after another, stepping on landmines amidst the hail of bullets. By the time they rushed to the outside and came into contact with the soldiers of the Second Independent Regiment, there were less than 200 soldiers in total.

Even if 200 people fought with bayonets, no matter how fierce they were, due to the huge disparity in numbers, they would not be able to create any waves, so they were simply wiped out.

Then the strange thing is that even if all the Japanese soldiers were killed, no soldiers would burn the Japanese regiment flag.

You must know that in the past, the Japanese army had one or two flag guards even during wars. Their mission was to burn the flag as quickly as possible when nothing could be done to prevent the flag from falling into the hands of the enemy.

But today.

It's very strange that the Japanese flag guard died without burning the flag.

In fact, not many people knew the Japanese regiment flag, but it happened that the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, Wang Jiudao, did.

He is from the Northeastern Army. In the early days of the Northeastern Army, he was trained by Japanese instructors, so he has a good understanding of some Japanese military systems and military common sense.

Deputy Commander Sun also knew him, so when Wang Jiudao came to find him with the Japanese regiment flag, he excitedly found Chen Shanhe with the regiment flag.

Chen Shanhe understood what this thing was at the first glance, and was instantly shocked: "Oh my god, how could there be such a thing?

Was the Japanese flag guard dead from the beginning?

This united flag can actually fall into our hands!

If Yoshio Shinozuka of Taiyuan finds out, why don't we order all the troops to come over and kill him?"

The brigade commander came from Huangpu, a top student in the first batch of Huangpu.

Most of the instructors and instructors in Huangpu have studied in Japan and have a good understanding of the Japanese military system, so the brigade commander knows very well what the regimental flag means to the Japanese army.

"My dear, this harvest is of great significance, Chen Shanhe, you kid is really lucky!

The first one to capture the flag of the Japanese Army Regiment was actually your Second Independent Regiment, which is the only one in the country!

That’s the credit everyone craves!”

After the brigade commander laughed, he agreed with what Chen Shanhe had just said: "Yes, if Yoshio Shinozuka knew that this regiment flag fell into our hands, he might ask all the troops to come over and fight us to the death!

Hahahahaha!”

No one noticed that at a certain place, in a very secret and neglected position, the camouflage was slowly lifted, revealing a Type 92 infantry gun, and it began to slowly adjust the muzzle.

Beside him, there were more than a dozen artillery shells.

The goal was obvious. He planned to use these dozen rounds of artillery shells to kill the last person who took over the regiment flag. That person must be the biggest official present.

And these dozen or so shells are a guarantee that the alliance flag will be blown up into ashes along with the opponent's biggest commander.

This was also the final struggle of the captain of the 11th Japanese Regiment.

The Japanese commander made two preparations before he died. If they could successfully break out, then this backup plan would be useless.

If the encirclement cannot be successfully broken out, then the person who finally captures the alliance flag, if he knows the goods, will definitely deliver this flag, which represents the dignity and honor of the country, to the highest officer.

And the last person lying here with a gun is their best gunner and best soldier.

When the brigade commander laughed while holding the Japanese regiment flag, Chen Shanhe suddenly felt a surge of joy in his heart, and then he looked in one direction with great joy.

I happened to see a cannon hidden there, and there was a man behind the cannon, who was about to load the cannonball.

Chen Shanhe's expression changed drastically after seeing this man's cannon. He had a feeling in the dark that the other party was targeting him, and he was probably the brigade commander.

The moment the opponent pulled the gun rope, Chen Shanhe pounced on the brigade commander.

This is a natural reaction. Chen Shanhe can die, but the brigade commander must not die.

Chen Shanhe's movements were not unpleasant. He threw the brigade commander directly into a groove. He lay on top of the brigade commander and protected him with his body.

The Japanese gunners were very accurate and hit the spot where the brigade commander was standing just now with one shot.

The brigade commander was stunned, not by the attack, but by the bombing.

When being bombarded, try to squat on the ground and don't let your back and chest touch the ground, as this can easily kill you.

You should squat, hold your head with both hands and cover your ears. In addition to blocking the sound, you also want to prevent shrapnel from flying into your head. Of course, if it wants to fly, your hands can't block the shrapnel, but it is just such a protective posture!

You also need to keep your mouth open, which is said to prevent the ears from being deafened by the explosion of artillery shells.
