Chapter 370 Working hard to stay alive (please subscribe, please vote!)
The most eye-catching thing is the large number of slogans left on the wall.
As if they were afraid that the Japanese would not be able to understand them all, some of the slogans written on the outside of the air-raid shelter walls that would never be blown down by heavy artillery were written in crooked Japanese.
"Children Yanagawa, I'm too lazy to play with you right now. I'll beat you up again if I get the chance!"
"Suematsu Shigeharu, you big fool, come after me if you have the guts!"
"Kuniqi is a little fool. If you don't go to Shanxi and you come here to beat me, tell me if you are a fool!"
"Hisao Tani, oh no, Hisao Tani is done. Sakai Tokutaro, you unlucky kid, hurry up and become the commander of the Sixth Division! Please."
"Ushijima Mitsuru, you can't compete with this unlucky boy like Sakai Tokutaro, why are you doing anything else? Find a place to hang yourself."
"Ushijima Sadao, you stupid ass is guarding a ball a few kilometers away. My brother is gone, and now you are here to eat shit!"
None of the worthy lieutenant generals and major generals of the Tenth Army, not even the dead Hisao Tani, escaped. They were all sprayed with slogans left by the Chinese.
Moreover, it is quite consistent with each person's characteristics, and the poison in his intentions far outweighs the insulting words he uses.
Of course, although Tang Dao was proficient in Japanese, it was not easy to translate the words "hanpi", "silly fork" and "dumb donkey" into Japanese with a poor vocabulary of curse words. He almost scratched his head.
Fortunately, Tantai Mingyue is quite gifted in language, and with the help of Tang Dao, he could express clearly what he wanted to express in Japanese.
"You are so bad!" The beautiful reporter laughed so much that she not only said it, but also hit Tang Dao on the shoulder with her small fist in a childlike manner to show how you can be so bad! But I like it so much, girl.
The big men in the security camp were dumbfounded.
Damn it, Tang Ying is just that tall! Why is it that this beautiful reporter is so enamored of him and so many people are watching! So he just starts to do it?
If there is no one in the back, is it more than that?
However, Battalion Commander Tang could not change his face when faced with such a charming scene, and replied solemnly: "The Japanese like my traditional Chinese culture the most. I am trying to satisfy them by leading them to learn folk slang! They should thank me."
Thank you for the hammer! If I were one of those Japanese generals who were scolded by you, I’m afraid what I want to do most is to hammer you to death!
Zhao Daqiang, who was accompanied by someone who wanted to write down the Tantai University reporter's words on paper with a brush on the wall, almost died because of the shamelessness of his boss.
But he seemed to be smiling like a braying donkey!
Zhao Daqiang was not mistaken. The Japanese generals who were not named by Tang Dao almost lost their temper when they heard about this. But what he didn't know was that the slogan Tang Dao made before leaving actually gained popularity among ordinary Japanese infantrymen.
resonated.
For example, when the soldiers of the Kunisaki detachment saw the leader of their own major general detachment, they all agreed with him in their hearts.
It’s not a ball. We are invincible in North China! Why did Mao have to come here and get beaten all over the head? What the Chinese say is absolutely right. Your Excellency, the detachment leader, is a fool!
The soldiers of the 114th Division wanted to nod wildly. After this battle, no success was achieved, but the losses were heavy. Isn't the commander of the division, Suematsu Shigeru, a big fool?
But the entire Sixth Division was extremely panicked. The division commander is dead? This is impossible! But the fact is that the division commander seems to have not appeared for almost two days.
The members of the 18th Division, including the fuming Ushijima Sadao himself, after thinking about it carefully, could only look sad. It seemed that calling him a stupid ass was the most appropriate word.
Donkey, you are stupid, don't take me with you.
As the saying goes, murder kills the heart! The Chinese people who take advantage of the night to sneak away quietly interpret this word vividly.
However, in the face of so many slogans, none of the furious Japanese commanders at all levels dared to use their command swords to show their respect for their superiors.
Because the Chinese people are too evil. It is not enough to punish people, but they also kill people.
The Japanese army major who first wanted to express his anger to protect his superior's reputation stepped on a landmine before he could even vent his anger.
The torn corpses, the fresh blood sprayed on the wall, and the slogans written in ink on the wall are simply the strongest satire of the Tenth Army.
Unless it's being bombarded with heavy artillery, otherwise, just watch it!
After receiving the news, Yanagawa Heisuke stood still for a few minutes. He did not feel like he had already evacuated and occupied the city. He gave a cold and direct order: "Order, leave an infantry brigade of the 114th Division and set fire to Matsue City. The rest of the army will march towards the city."
Pursue in the direction of Baihe Port Bridge. Catch them and kill them. Our army does not need prisoners of war in this battle."
Yanagawa Heisuke knew that the Chinese had deceived him once with telegrams, and they used these vicious slogans to attack again just to make him angry.
Anger will make people lose their composure, and only in this way can they have a chance to escape.
All its purposes are to escape.
Because they are not a mechanized force, they only rely on one pair of legs.
And for such a large army to leave so quietly without attracting the attention of the 18th Division several kilometers away in the north city, they had to wait until at least the early morning.
Based on this calculation, they had only left Songjiang City for six or seven hours. Even though they were fully armed, they could only be thirty kilometers away from Songjiang at most, which was not a very far distance.
If he continues to delay in this empty city, then these hateful Chinese people will really get what they want.
The main force of the Japanese army set off quickly, taking with them everything they could carry, and rushed towards the Baihe Port Bridge non-stop.
On the simple road, wheels rolled, people shouted and horses neighed, and the huge roar of tanks resounded throughout the wilderness.
The power of the semi-mechanical army is terrifying.
However, the main road, which was two carts wide, was given over to tanks, trucks, artillery, and various horse-drawn carriages. Naturally, the infantry had to march in the wilderness on both sides of the road.
The wilderness that had just been exposed to the sun for two days was still a little damp. The heavy leather boots of the infantry were covered with mud, and their pace was extremely heavy. It was much slower than the march from Jinshanwei to Songjiang a few days ago.
This actually comes from the heaviness in my heart.
The entire Songjiang offensive and defensive battle, looking at it now, is simply a big joke to everyone in the Japanese Tenth Army.
If possible, the proud Imperial Japanese Army would even be willing to fight to the death with the Chinese under the city walls.
Of course, this is what I think now. In the morning, most of the Japanese troops were extremely lucky that the Chinese took the initiative to retreat.
Now and then, men can be very fickle sometimes.
Compared with the heavy footsteps of the Japanese in pursuit, the Chinese were obviously much more relaxed.
The Songjiang garrison did not have heavy artillery that weighed several tons like the Japanese army. The most powerful heavy firearms were the 75 mountain cannon and the 75 field artillery. More than a dozen of them were destroyed by the Japanese heavy artillery and aircraft. The maximum weight of this artillery was seven
It weighs more than 100 kilograms and can be disassembled and transported by packhorse.
In order to ensure that the retreat would not be discovered by the Japanese army, all the pack horses had their mouths wrapped with towels and their hooves were wrapped in cotton. Three soldiers were responsible for one horse. Two people led the horse and one held a knife. If the horse could not bear it, it would neigh.
Run and kill the horse immediately.
The rest, such as mortars, machine guns, flat-fire cannons, and heavy machine guns, were transported by pack horses if there were any extra pack horses. If not, the large number of infantrymen simply helped the artillery troops to carry them purely manually.
No one will find this tiring, because the soldiers know very well that successfully retreating out of Songjiang does not mean that they are safe. The Japanese army may catch up at any time. Without these heavy weapons to help counterattack, the light infantry will be easily crushed by the Japanese army.
broken.
Of course, the Chinese officers and soldiers who wanted to escape would not take the main road, but would also take the wilderness.
But the Sichuan Army wore straw sandals, and the 67th Army and the Songjiang Security Group wore cloth shoes, which were much easier to wear than the Japanese leather boots, which weighed several kilograms.
The leather boots equipped by the Japanese army are used to protect against various spikes on the battlefield. What is there in the wilderness? Is there any glass slag? China, which still relies on agriculture as its main source of income, does not have so much industrial waste at the moment.
Being poor may one day become an advantage.
Although the marching speed was not as fast as Yanagawa Heisuke expected. After daybreak, there were still 10 kilometers away from the Shirakawa Port Bridge, but there was no problem for the entire army to pass the Shirakaku Port Bridge before noon.
As the vanguard of the entire army, Tang Dao met Lei Xiong, who had been waiting for a long time, and his familiar brothers from the Sixing Camp.
Comrades who had gone through several bloody battles smiled and saluted each other.
There are fewer familiar faces again.
But this time, no one cried.
Many people died, but they also lived.
As long as these living people are not dead, those people will still be alive.
Now, they have to work hard to continue living.
Even though a Japanese reconnaissance plane just passed overhead.
