Kitahara Kurao was so angry that he could only keep urging the other infantry regiment to go to Suolong Mountain as soon as possible.
If His Highness cannot be saved, his position as division commander will probably be lost, let alone promoted to general, taking him one step closer to becoming a marshal.
The Japanese support troops heading to the Zhengtai Railway are still on their way, but the battle here is about to come to an end.
The distance between the two sides was already very close, and Ding Wei led his troops to charge, so the prince's escort could not block their charge for a while.
Under the leadership of Ding Wei, the 2nd Battalion's first charge showed initial results.
The prince's escort in the outer circle was completely defeated, and they could only retreat and shrink the defense line.
The 2nd Battalion pulled out a line of skirmishers, surrounded the Japanese carriages scattered everywhere, and cleared away the Japanese soldiers who were desperately resisting.
As the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion continued to narrow the encirclement, some Japanese soldiers who resisted were successfully eliminated.
The Japanese Prince's escort was beaten and retreated, and all the Japanese soldiers in the carriage were also cleared.
In less than an hour, the entire situation was under control of Ding Wei and others.
In the end, only half of the escort soldiers were left, and they had no choice but to give up the resistance outside.
They huddled in the carriage where Prince Makoto Komatsu Miyajima was riding, relying on the strong armor outside the carriage to make their final resistance.
Ding Wei led his troops towards the carriage where the prince was riding.
But just when Ding Wei was about to launch an attack, he encountered fierce resistance from the Japanese soldiers in the carriage.
It seems that the little devil put a lot of thought into this carriage.
There are several shooting holes on the car body, and the dark muzzles of light and heavy machine guns stick out of the shooting holes and shoot wildly outside.
Several tongues of fire suddenly spurted out from the muzzles of the guns. Several soldiers who had not had time to lie down were shot several times and lay on the ground vomiting blood.
As expected, these little devils were really thieves. They deliberately did not show their firepower immediately. Instead, they showed weakness to the enemy so that Ding Wei and the others could relax their vigilance.
Their defensive thinking was basically the same as when Ding Wei attacked, preparing to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and inflict maximum casualties in the first wave of attacks.
Fortunately, Ding Wei and the others reacted very quickly and ducked behind the nearby carriages.
The entire car body was radiant with light, and the ferocious firepower created a dense firepower network, making it difficult for the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion to get close to the car.
The soldiers of the 2nd Battalion were blocked by the iron shell and were struggling to move forward.
They could only hide behind the car next to them to avoid the firepower coming from the prince's car. The two sides formed a "C" shape and began to confront each other.
These devils are quite smart. Unless someone tries to attack, they will never waste bullets by firing.
Ding Wei tried to blow up the carriage with grenades and grenades, but the carriage was still intact.
The bullets hit the iron shell with clanging sounds, leaving only a few sparks and no traces on the body of the car.
"Captain, what should I do? This thing is too strong!" Ma Han walked quickly to Ding Wei and said bitterly.
"The enemy's firepower is so fierce that we won't be able to break through the armor in a short time. If we can't break through it again, we will be in trouble."
What Mahan said is indeed true. Unless they can conjure a large-caliber howitzer out of thin air, all attacks will be in vain.
Once the Japanese support troops arrive, not to mention whether they can kill the prince, it is estimated that the men of the 2nd Battalion will also have to be left here.
"Who says we can't break it!" Ding Wei stuck his head out, took a closer look at the situation outside, and said confidently.
"Broken, how to break it?" Ma Han was a little puzzled: "In this whole group of iron bastards, the devils inside would rather be a turtle than come out to fight!"
Ding Wei stared at the carriage where the prince was sitting, with a smile on his lips.
Inside the carriage.
Komatsu Miyajima Makoto had a gloomy face and said coldly: "What's going on? Why haven't our support troops arrived yet?"
"Your Highness, they are still on the way, but they were blocked by the enemy!" A second lieutenant hurriedly paused.
"Baga, I want the exact time. There are enemies outside who want to kill me, but they can't do anything!" Komatsu Miyajima Makoto said angrily.
Ever since he landed in China, all he had seen was how the imperial army was invincible and trampled the Chinese army under its feet.
Therefore, in his eyes, the Chinese anti-Japanese troops had no ability to resist at all, and they would become a piece of loose sand on their own with a slight poke.
So this time he only brought a squadron of escorts as guards. Even though Masahiro Kuroda was killed in action, he still didn't feel anything.
Because Komatsu Miyajima Makoto believed that under the protection of the prince's escort team and this sturdy carriage, his life was absolutely safe.
But now, for the first time, he had doubts about this inspection mission, thinking that he should not accept this inspection mission so hastily.
"Boom~"
Several more shells exploded outside, and the originally stable carriage shook slightly. Komatsu Miyajima Makoto's expression suddenly became a little panicked.
"Your Highness, you can rest assured that our armor is specially customized from Germany. Unless a large-caliber howitzer is used on the opposite side, we will be very safe." The second lieutenant consoled us.
"We just need to hold on until the support troops arrive and wait for them to eliminate all the guys outside!"
Komatsu Miyajima Makoto frowned. Naturally, he would not tie his own safety to the carriage now.
If he didn't see the arrival of support troops for a minute, he wouldn't have any sense of security.
"Send power to the Kitahara Division immediately. I'll give them the last half hour..." Komatsu Miyajima Makoto said sharply.
But before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a violent explosion in his ears, and the carriage shook.
"Your Highness, be careful!" the second lieutenant hurriedly ran to Komatsu Miyajima Makoto.
Then, noisy gunfire erupted outside the carriage again.
Komatsu Miyajima Makoto was shocked. The group of Chinese people outside hadn't given up the attack yet?
It seems that they are determined to take their lives today!
"Send power to the Beiyuan Division immediately. No matter what method is used, I must see their support troops within half an hour!"
Komatsu Miyajima Makoto grabbed the collar of the second lieutenant in front of him and shouted at him.
"The Yoshimura Regiment is also nearby. It will send him power immediately and order him to come to support immediately. If they don't come out again,"
Even though Komatsu and Miyajima Makoto's saliva had sprayed onto the second lieutenant's face, he still did not dare to make any other moves and kept nodding.
"Go quickly!" Komatsu Miyajima Makoto threw the second lieutenant to the ground.
The Japanese second lieutenant was so frightened that he ran out crawling.
Komatsu Miyajima Makoto took out the family crest he carried with him, touched the chrysanthemum pattern on it, then clasped his hands together and muttered something in his mouth.
In the end, the devil prince had no choice but to ask his ancestors for blessings.
