"Baga, we can capture Baijia Town soon. Why should we slow down the attack at this time? This will miss a good opportunity."
Captain Fujimura of the 23rd Japanese Regiment was very angry. Under his attack from three sides, the defenders of Baijia Town could no longer hold on.
The east gate of Baijia Town was blasted open by his mountain artillery early, and with the help of two infantry squadrons, they stormed from the north and south gates. Even if the Baijia Army joined the war, it would not help.
Except for some clan soldiers, the rest of the Bai family army did not even have guns. They were armed with long spears and broadswords. How could they fight against the Japs who were armed with live ammunition?
Therefore, without weapons, they could only hide behind Nancheng, waiting for the Japanese to rush in, and then engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese.
After the South City Gate was breached by the Japanese army, the two sides started a hand-to-hand battle at the South City Gate. The Bai Army played a key role at this time.
The Japanese who rushed into the city were stunned to see that there were so many Chinese inside the city gate. They were all dressed in black, with white cloth strips tied around their heads and waists. They were very brave.
The Japanese army suffered heavy losses for a time, and was almost driven out of the city.
But the Japanese soldiers were well-trained after all. After stabilizing their position, they discovered that although these Chinese men in black were brave and fearless of death, their combat capabilities were average.
When they first broke into the city, they were frightened by the opponent's number and bravery.
So in the panic, more than thirty Japanese were beaten to death by the opponent's fists, sticks, and swords.
But when they relied on the city defenses near the city gate to stabilize their position, they discovered that these Chinese people had not received any formal training. They were not much better than ordinary people.
The Japanese's menacing appearance finally appeared, and they became much more calm when fighting with bayonets. The Bai family's army and the defenders began to lose support.
The garrison only had one platoon at the south gate. Battalion Commander Zhang, his guards and wounded soldiers all went to support the north gate.
Therefore, there is only one platoon of garrison troops at the south gate, plus the Bai family soldiers.
When the Japanese succeeded, more than half of the defenders suffered casualties, so the main force at the south gate was only the Bai family army.
At this time, when Bai's army was in chaos, Bai's town was in danger, and the Japanese army was about to break through and enter the city.
But what no one expected was that when the situation in Baijia Town was basically over, the originally aggressive Japanese suddenly withdrew and retreated from the south gate.
Li Guoqiang, who had just received the battle report and was preparing to divide a squad of soldiers to support the South City Gate, also looked confused.
Originally, he thought that Baijia Town could no longer be defended and that the Japanese army, including the East Gate, would soon be breached. But at this moment, the Japanese all retreated to eat.
Is it more important for the Japanese to eat than to attack the city?
Li Guoqiang was puzzled, but this gave him a chance to breathe. While he ordered people to send the wounded down, he also ordered people to strengthen the city defense and block the south gate with sandbags.
But based on this calculation, the number of casualties in this battle was one-half of his total force.
In other words, if the Japanese army attacks with all its strength, with its current strength, it will not be able to withstand the Japanese army's all-out attack.
Li Guoqiang was frowning, but good news came from Zhou Weiguo. The 2nd Infantry Brigade of the Japanese 23rd Regiment had been completely wiped out and three Japanese bombers were shot down.
This exciting news made Li Guo seem to see hope. He excitedly told all the soldiers that in half an hour, as long as we persist for another half hour, Baijia Town can be defended.
Battalion Commander Zhang of the garrison battalion also heaved a sigh of relief. He originally thought that Baijia Town was over this time, but he didn't expect the little devil to be so stupid. He suddenly thought of eating when he was about to capture Baijia Town. It was simply ridiculous.
.
Of course, they had no idea that the Japanese had become so stupid that they even gave up a Japanese army brigade just to create conditions for Takeshita Jun's special forces to rob and kill them.
Naturally, the Fujimura Japanese couldn't understand it and sent a telegram to their headquarters saying that this was a stupid decision.
But old Japanese Ban Heng thought it was worth it, because the Dragon Boat Festival had already caused considerable trouble to the empire, and he had the latest secret code in his hand.
Ban Heng, the Japs, thought the risk was worth taking.
It’s just that he probably never dreamed that there was not only a Dragon Boat Festival in China, but also a Zhou Weiguo. He annihilated the Japanese second brigade with a completely crushing attitude, although he also paid the price of nearly 200 casualties. But such a huge
The proportional battle loss ratio still made this battle a complete victory.
Zhou Weiguo ordered the soldiers to quickly clean the battlefield, load all the weapons and equipment left by the Japanese army into vehicles, and prepare to take them to Baijia Town.
Zhou Weiguo believed that after a morning of fierce fighting, Baijia Town must have consumed a lot of weapons and ammunition, so these weapons and equipment were enough to allow Baijia Town to hold on for a while.
However, after a while, Zhou Weiguo didn't know how long they could hold on, because they did not have a dedicated baggage force, and they only brought so much weapons and ammunition. Once they ran out of ammunition, they would be in a very passive situation.
.
So at this time, he thought of sending electricity to the headquarters.
However, the original secret code has been leaked. Once the power is sent back, the Japanese army will definitely know it in advance.
So this is a very troublesome problem.
He could only hope that Dragon Boat Festival would arrive soon and solve the trouble they were encountering now.
"Hurry up, move quickly."
Zhou Weiguo shouted orders, but only his first and second battalions were in action.
Soldiers from the Independence Regiment are helping the people clean up the remains of the villagers.
There were more than 400 original residents in Xiaoyangzhuang, but after a killing, only 113 people were left alive. The rest were killed by the Japanese. Especially in one courtyard, many people were killed.
More than eighty people died.
They were driven into this courtyard. The crazy Japanese threw grenades into the courtyard, and then after the explosion, they rushed in with bayonets and stabbed the surviving civilians indiscriminately.
The whole courtyard was filled with blood, and the blood flowed along the door to the street.
In a dead end of the village, the soldiers found another twenty people. They were driven into the alley and shot dead one by one by the Japanese.
When cleaning the bodies, each soldier could see the fear and despair they felt when they were dying.
The rage of revenge once again ignited in the hearts of every warrior.
In their hearts, the little devils are no longer human beings. They cannot be measured by the concept of human beings.
They are just a bunch of murderous beasts. They don't deserve to be forgiven at all.
At the same time, the people in the village finally cried wildly.
They were crying so loudly that their sound could be heard five miles away.
They cried out the pain, grievance, and anger that had been suppressed deep in their hearts. They cried so hard, so hard that they cried blood! ...
