"Baga! How come the Chinese army has heavy machine guns produced by our Empire of Japan?"
"I'm reporting to you, Colonel, that they are probably the batch of heavy machine guns that were lost in the warehouse yesterday."
"Stop the attack for one day. The Chinese army has such intensity of firepower, and we have lost the support of naval guns. The soldiers of the empire will suffer a lot."
Shuirou felt bad. Tomorrow's battle will be difficult. Today the Japanese army does not have the support of naval guns. Otherwise, the Japanese army will not have a truce today. There must be some reason. Shuirou said quickly
"Don't rest, everyone, hurry up and repair the fortifications. The most important thing is to be prepared for artillery defense. Dig the artillery defense holes and take down the heavy machine guns. Cover them up." Shuirou helped lift the heavy machine guns down.
.
Sure enough, on February 26, a new heavy artillery regiment of the Japanese army arrived. At the beginning of the battle, the attacking Japanese army launched a 100-minute artillery bombardment. The ground looked like it had been plowed once and passed through a sieve. It became Jifen.
Large areas of the fortifications collapsed, and smoke and dust in the sky covered the sky and the sun. The agitated air continued to roll up dust pillars straight into the sky.
Several Japanese Type 96 heavy machine guns were also blown up. Fortunately, the casualties were relatively small, with only 8 people. However, the Japanese army followed closely and attacked crazily. Shuirou helped carry the heavy machine guns to the position one by one.
He also frantically sniped at the Japanese attack.
This battle was fought in darkness. There were corpses everywhere in front of the position, and there were mountains and hills. The land was covered with blood. In just over an hour, the 87th Division's position was declared to have been lost. There was only water in the entire 87th Division's position.
The Rou Company's position is still in their hands. No one told them that the large troops retreated, and they became an isolated island in the sea.
In the end, they finally followed the formation's breakout and retreated. However, the wounded stayed behind of their own accord. They did it for the survival of their own company and did not want to drag down everyone else. In the end, they coexisted and died with the position.
It's so sad and heroic to say goodbye to life and death. I left without any hesitation, and generously fought for righteousness and died with the enemy amidst the roar; I exchanged my ego for righteousness. I left with tears in my eyes, and opened my heart with blood. I rushed towards the barrage to fight the enemy; I showed up to the world.
Show the fearlessness and strength of Chinese men.
After breaking out of the encirclement, Shui Rou continued to gather the company and retreated in an orderly manner. The organization of each platoon of the company was not chaotic at all. The neat marching lines and the different and neat equipment made it difficult for anyone who wanted to cause trouble.
He needs to think about it. If anyone dares to disrupt his company, Shui Rou will shoot him.
"Which army is this from? Why are there so many Japanese heavy machine guns?"
"Look at the number of people in this army. There are quite a lot of them."
"Hey - look, they still have a lot of Japanese grenades in their pockets."
"Where did you get all this? -"
There was no trace of a smile on Shui Rou's stern face. Who would be afraid of this God of Death? How could he dare to provoke him?
The troops retreated all the way to Tangqiao and could no longer retreat. Behind them was the railway, and a large number of Chinese troops were resisting in Shanghai.
At 9:30 that night, the 87th Division received the order and moved to Loutang Town to garrison.
On March 3, the 517th Regiment retreated from Miaohang and went to Loutang to rest. It was only about 15 miles away from Liuhe. The men of the 517th Regiment had been fighting for days and were exhausted. The air humidity was high and the clothes
They are all wet and rely on human body temperature to dry.
The regiment commander still followed the garrison regulations and dispatched outpost companies in three directions. Shui Rou's company was the most complete company in the entire 517th Regiment and had relatively complete equipment, so it was sent to Loutang, the most outpost.
Outpost defense.
Once they arrived at the location, Shui Rou did not allow everyone to rest, and ordered that fortifications be built immediately. No one was allowed to disobey, and anyone who disobeyed the order would be killed.
It’s no wonder that our ancestors said, “Compassion does not control soldiers.” The soldiers did not dare to say anything. In front of this murderous god, all thoughts are superfluous. You must do what you are told.
After rushing to repair the fortifications, Shui Rou let everyone rest. After all, life is important, and physical strength is also very important.
