Just when the little Japanese communications soldier called the headquarters, Duanwu shot his head off.
Duanwu had been keeping an eye on the Japanese communications troops from the beginning, because at this time, he wanted to cut off this Japanese unit from their headquarters.
He wanted to make the old devil Bo Tian not know what was going on in the woods, so that he could not make a decision to retreat and defend because of this.
Because it is almost impossible to completely annihilate the Botian detachment. Duanwu has too few troops. It would be good if he can repel the Botian detachment. The best result is to keep the Japanese from the Nanshan brigade and force Botian.
The detachment was defeated and fled.
This is the best result that Duanwu can expect. Moreover, he still has to fight, otherwise it will be difficult to defeat the Botian detachment with the existing strength.
Again, Duanwu didn't have enough troops. Otherwise, it would be strange if Duanwu, the Botian detachment, allowed him to escape.
"Kill me!"
The Dragon Boat Festival roared and everyone charged at this moment. Everyone ferociously pounced on their prey like jungle beasts.
The little Japanese had no intention of taking on the challenge at this time. Although Ono Nakamura was a very good commander, at this time, his commanding ability was completely unable to be used.
His soldiers followed his command and wanted to break out of the encirclement. Unfortunately, Nakamura Ono had too few troops around him, and the firepower of the Special Second Company, Special Third Company, and the First Guard Company was too intense.
Nakamura Ono's breakthrough was repulsed, and he fought hand-to-hand combat with the approaching Chinese soldiers.
The little Jaap thrust his gun at the Chinese soldiers, but the soldiers from the Second Special Company, the Third Special Company, and the First Guard Company, who had undergone rigorous training during the Dragon Boat Festival, were very strong in their stabbing skills. Each of them could equal one to ten, and they aimed their submachine guns at the little Japanese.
A sudden meal.
Dragon Boat Festival often taught them: It’s stupid to still fight with bayonets in any age. If you have a submachine gun, you don’t have to fight with little devils on bayonets.
Therefore, under the wise leadership of Duanwu, the little Japanese's stabbing skills were no longer a match for the Chinese soldiers. Nakamura Ono and his forward team were reduced to only a dozen people in less than a minute.
The Japanese soldiers surrounded Nakamura Ono. Nakamura Ono drew his sword and said to Danwu who was walking towards him: "You are the commander of China, right? Your soldiers fired when they were fighting with their bayonets. They are not samurai at all. And you
As their commander, do you dare to accept my challenge?"
"Hahaha!"
Duanwu laughed loudly, then took the machine gun from the hand of a soldier next to him, pointed it at Nakamura Ono and a dozen or so little Japs, and gave him a sudden meal!
Ono Nakamura was shot three times and vomited blood. He supported his body with a sword and reluctantly squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "You, you are not a samurai either..."
"Yes, I am not a samurai, I am an assassin. The goal of an assassin is only to kill people, and they don't care what method they use."
After Danwu finished speaking, he threw the machine gun with empty bullets back to the soldiers, then took out the pistol from his waist, pointed it at Nakamura Ono's head and shot him.
Nakamura Ono's body was found lying in the cold woods, just like those many Japanese soldiers who died like wild dogs on this land of China.
They will never have the chance to return to the country, and there is not even a cemetery. They lie here and can only hope that the kind-hearted Chinese will throw their bodies into the ditch and bury them with a layer of soil, and then they will be buried.
Otherwise, lying in the wild, they would only be eaten by wild beasts and end up with no bones left.
Dragon Boat Festival order: "Quickly annihilate the Japanese, don't tell me any samurai rules. I only have one rule, the invaders must die! As for how they die, I don't care!"
"yes!"
The soldiers cheered in unison, feeling that it was a real pleasure to fight with such a commander. It was not pretentious at all. If you kill the Japanese, you will kill the Japanese. It would be stupid to fight with the Japanese with bayonets. It would be easier if you just cut off the fight.
Therefore, as a soldier, a commander like Duanwu is very down-to-earth, much better than those officers who have gone to college and always talk to the Japanese about Bushido.
A group of people loaded their bullets and joined the battlefield again with a temporary brigade to annihilate all the remaining Japanese.
After the Japanese were all dead, the Dragon Boat Festival ordered the battlefield to be swept quickly. The submachine guns of the Second Special Company, the Third Special Company, and the First Guard Company had all fired many bullets.
Use the enemy's machine guns and rifles to shoot out all the bullets. A small amount of bullets are gathered together to form a charge team.
"Hurry up, move faster. We still have our brothers on Yushan Mountain. Whether they can survive and how many of them can survive depends on whether we can repel the Japanese."
The Dragon Boat Festival roared loudly, and all the soldiers speeded up again.
At this moment, a middle-aged officer with a Chinese character came up and saluted the Dragon Boat Festival: "Temporary acting brigade commander Zhang Hanquan of the 1st Brigade is reporting to the special commissioner."
"Very good, your troops fought hard."
Duanwu said in appreciation, and at this time, Zhang Hanquan stood at attention again and saluted: "Our military commander has said that the special commissioner is the best commander of the party and the country. His orders are my orders. And I have specifically explained that I must not give any orders.
Disgraceful to him!”
Duanwu smiled. He didn't expect that Commander Liao was quite interesting. Since he was so cooperative, he couldn't treat them badly and waited until the battle was over. He could repay the favor by giving him some weapons and equipment.
But then I thought about it, forget it. Just give them the equipment of the temporary first brigade. During the Dragon Boat Festival, I saw that many of the soldiers in the temporary first brigade still use Hanyang-made equipment.
Duanwu ordered: "If your soldiers like the weapons captured on the battlefield, they will replace the original weapons immediately. Because we are going to have a decisive battle with the Japanese army next. Your temporary brigade is the main force. Do you understand?"
"Yes, please rest assured, Commissioner, we will attack wherever you point us as a temporary brigade!"
Zhang Hanquan shouted loudly again, and then ran off to carry out the Dragon Boat Festival order.
Brooke on the side smiled and said: "Here, is this the brigade commander? Why does he look a little different from other senior officers?"
What Brooke meant was that as a brigade commander, he should be at least a colonel. How could he be like a big-headed soldier?
But Duan Wu could see that this brigade commander, even if he was not a top soldier, was a junior officer who had just been promoted. Duan Wu guessed that he was probably just a major and battalion commander before.
But there is nothing that can be done about it. All divisions, brigades, and regiments are not only casualties of soldiers, but also many high-ranking officers who have also died in this war. Therefore, a subordinate who dares to fight and fight is temporarily promoted.
When the officer came up, it was a helpless move.
Of course, many high-ranking officers were killed. They fled the battle, or passively resisted the war, wasting the opportunity to fight. It would be strange if Commander Liao did not kill them. So lower-level officers like Zhang Hanquan were promoted.
And it's very good. Although it looks a bit dull, it can completely follow the instructions of the Dragon Boat Festival.
Duanwu felt that this might be one of the reasons why Commander Liao promoted him!
In such an extremely unfavorable situation in the war against Japan, sometimes a loyal junior officer is more reliable and can be driven than a senior officer who is greedy for life and fear of death.
···················
"Your Excellency, the call from the Third Battalion of the Nakamura Regiment was suddenly interrupted."
At the camp of Bo Tian detachment, the Japanese communications officer came to report to Bo Tian Zhongyi.
"Nani?"
Namada Chuichi was surprised, because he knew Nakamura, he was a very powerful commander. His tactics were always both offensive and defensive, and how could such a person put himself in danger?
"I'm reporting to you that the Chinese in the Nanshan position can no longer hold on. They are shrinking their defense line and retreating to the main position in Yushan."
"Reporting to your Excellency, the Beishan position has made significant progress. The Chinese will soon be unable to hold on."
Bo Tian Zhongyi was suspicious, but he didn't expect good news to come one after another. After an hour and a half of fierce attack, the defenders of the Yushan position finally relaxed.
At this time, the old Japanese soldier Namada Chuichi's heart became lively again. Although Nakamura Ono's brigade suddenly lost contact, which made him feel very worried. However, the progress in the Nanshan position and the north side of the main position gave him a glimmer of hope.
He looked at the Yushan position that was about to be reached, and then glanced at the anxiously waiting communications officer.
"Continue to contact Zhongcun. Order the imperial army in the Nanshan position and the main position in the north to continue their efforts and capture Yushan. I will ask for credit for them in front of the Commander."
Finally, Namada Chuichi could not resist the temptation of the Yushan position and made the decision to continue the attack.
Of course, this old devil did not completely disregard his own safety. Because in his camp, there were at least more than 300 imperial soldiers from the past.
Among them, there are more than 300 baggage troops, about 200 people in his guard, and about 300 troops in two squadrons of the 2nd Infantry Regiment.
Including the artillery of less than 300 people, the total was about 1,400 people. There were also 14 tanks serving as bunkers to defend Namada Chuichi's camp.
So this is the reason why Namada Chuichi would still bet on this game even if he knew that Nakamura Ono might encounter the same misfortune as Mr. MCC.
But unexpectedly, at this time, the Yushan position was not as bad as Bo Tianchuichi imagined.
Although the casualties of the 174th Division and the Independent Regiment in the Yushan position were very heavy, the defense of the entire position had not yet collapsed.
Xie Jinyuan and Zhong Jiushan reduced the defensive line in order to concentrate their superior forces and continue to cause massive damage to the Japanese army.
Although the Japanese army attacked fiercely under the cover of artillery fire and tanks, the casualties were more than twice those of the 174th Division and the Independent Regiment.
The firepower of the 174th Division and the Independent Regiment was too fierce, and the grenades were thrown down as if they were free. The kid almost held a knife to the noses of the soldiers of the Independent Regiment and the 174th Division several times, but he was repulsed by a series of explosions.
.
The chariots of the Little Japanese were originally the kings and hegemons on the battlefield in China. But who would have thought that there would be two 37mm anti-tank guns waiting for them on the relatively flat Nanshan position.
This kind of anti-tank artillery hit every target in Sun Shiyu's hands. More than a dozen of the Japs' tanks were destroyed by Sun Shiyu. But Sun Shiyu escaped unscathed.
Of course, even so, the Second Regiment of the 174th Division, which was responsible for the defense, still suffered heavy losses. Sun Shiyu and others also had to temporarily retreat from the Nanshan position.
The Japs swarmed forward, as if they could not kill them all no matter how hard they tried. Under the cover of Japanese tanks, they crossed the Nanshan position and were heading towards the main position.
Zhong Jiushan frowned, because he had already replaced the second regiment, which had been crippled. The first regiment also replaced the third battalion of the independent regiment, which also suffered heavy casualties.
The three battalions of the independent regiment are all Sichuan troops. When they first followed the Dragon Boat Festival to fight the Japanese, they had nearly 700 people. But now, there are less than 200 people, and there are still a large number of wounded soldiers.
But even so, the Third Battalion not only had no complaints at all, but was also unwilling to retreat from the firing line.
Battalion Commander Wei Yong was seriously injured. When he was carried down, he was still telling Xie Jinyuan that the position could no longer be retreated. He was willing to lead the Sichuan army to hold the position.
Xie Jinyuan told him that this was an order from the regimental leader, and Wei Yong slowly took back Xie Jinyuan's hand and passed out.
"Quickly, carry the person down for treatment. Then send him to the hospital in the rear."
Xie Jinyuan ordered, his heart was bleeding as he looked at the seriously injured soldiers one by one.
The casualties were too great. In less than two hours of fighting, the 174th Division and the Independent Regiment suffered nearly 1,200 casualties.
And this number changes anytime and anywhere.
"Where on earth has your special commissioner gone? Why haven't you seen anyone yet? This battle has turned into what it is now because he went his own way."
At a time when all the soldiers were risking their lives to fight the Japanese invaders, Yan Wushuang began to question Xie Jinyuan.
Xie Jinyuan's eyes stood up with an angry look on his face: "Go back, if you dare to harm the morale of the army again, I will shoot you!..."
