When the land cleansing began, the Japanese on Position 5 never dreamed that their lives would end like this.
Originally they thought they could launch a counterattack when reinforcements from the 39th Regiment arrived. But now it seems that they may have thought too much. Their enemies never thought about letting them leave alive.
The artillery shells flying all over the sky were like hail falling on the position.
Even if the little Japs hide in the trenches, it will be useless. The shells fired by the grenade are in a parabola, and the trenches cannot stop the grenade attack at all.
The shells fell into the trench, and the little devils screamed in panic, but in the next second, they flew out of the trench with a loud explosion.
Death brought fear to the little devils. When they found that the trenches had lost their defensive role, they crawled out of the trenches and ran around.
But in the next second, they were all annihilated in the horrific flames of war.
This scene stunned all the Northeastern Army not far away, because at this time the entire No. 5 Highland looked like an erupting volcano, with explosions, fire and billowing smoke constantly coming from the top of the mountain.
Then the First Battalion of the Independent Regiment rushed to Highland No. 5. They originally thought there would be a small-scale fight, but it was a pity that the last Japanese was covered in blood, and what he said was just to let Sun Shiyu kill him.
Sun Shiyu glanced at the Japs and said faintly: "We Chinese never kill people who have lost the ability to resist." Then with a look of pride, he took away the Japs' weapons and left.
The messy Japs looked at their chests stabbed by half of the bayonet, and screamed in despair.
At this moment, he was worse off than dead. His body was almost pierced by half of the bayonet, and his right thigh, abdomen, arm, and face were all bloody and bloody.
He couldn't survive, and the severe pain made his whole body tremble.
He prayed to the passing soldiers of the Independent Regiment to kill him, but the soldiers of the Independent Regiment only glanced at him and then left with disdain, because all the devils must pay a sufficient price for the mistakes they made.
Otherwise, how can we be worthy of those Chinese people who died?
So if you are desperate, you will be desperate, and if you are miserable, you will be miserable, because only by feeling the same pain can the little devils understand what they are doing.
When you killed the Chinese, you didn't understand the pain of the Chinese. So now, use your body and your soul to feel it for yourself!
Highland No. 5 was easily captured, and the soldiers of the Independent Regiment waved battle flags on the top of the mountain and shouted loudly.
The Japs on positions 3 and 4 were frightened when they saw it. They never expected that highland 5 would fall so quickly. Once position 5 fell, their backs would be directly exposed to the enemy.
The little devil knew that the situation was over. If the reinforcements could not arrive in time, they might all die in Yandang Mountain today.
The little devils were demoralized, but at this time the Northeastern Army was as if they had been given a shot of blood.
It turned out that when the Independent Regiment captured Highland No. 5, the Northeastern Army attacking Highland No. 3 and No. 4 also saw this scene.
Seeing this scene, the officers of the Northeast Army quickly ordered an all-out attack. Because originally they were here to reinforce the Dragon Boat Festival, but they didn't expect the other party to occupy three enemy highlands first. Instead, they strengthened the regiment's strength and formed an artillery regiment.
Under the cover of the enemy, even the four highlands were not taken down.
Before they came, they were still laughing at the Chinese lunatic. In the end, they were going to ask their Northeast Army to come and help? But no, their combat power was not stretched at all. With only a few hundred people, they not only occupied three places of the Japanese army
high ground, and the large forces assisting them almost annihilated the Japanese 150th Regiment.
So at this time, what else do they have to say? For their own sake, they have to take down these two highlands.
When Duanwu saw this scene while standing on Highland No. 7, he was very satisfied, because this was the effect he wanted.
Otherwise, once the Japanese army arrives, it will be very disadvantageous for them in this wilderness.
"Duanwu, look, the Japanese are coming."
At this time, Zhou Weiguo called Duanwu over to take a look, and Duanwu looked with a telescope, but saw dust flying on the southeast highway, and a large number of Japanese soldiers were coming menacingly.
"Report to the group, Japs have been spotted to the southwest of us."
At this moment, another scout came to report.
"There is a pincer attack from the east and west. No wonder the Japanese 150th Regiment dared to ambush us in Yandang Mountain. All troops were ordered to evacuate immediately. We are strong enough today. There are many opportunities to kill the Japanese. Hum!"
Duanwu sneered, because only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. Now that the exact number of enemies is unknown, and he is unprepared, it is not cost-effective to face off against the Japanese in the wilderness.
Therefore, at this time, as the best policy, Duanwu ordered all troops to evacuate quickly, including preparations to block the Japanese army and the Northeastern Army that had just occupied the Japanese Army's No. 4 and No. 5 Highlands.
Everyone quickly evacuated, leaving the cursing Japs alone.
The Japanese suffered heavy losses this time, and the entire 150th Regiment was almost wiped out.
The number of casualties exceeded 4,200, including the regimental commander.
However, less than forty people were able to escape, and there were more than fifty wounded who pretended to be dead on the battlefield.
There were only so many people left in a fully-formed regiment. With the addition of Sakata's regiment, more than 10,000 Japs were wiped out in three days.
When Matsui Iwane heard this report, he almost went crazy. Turning over the table had become his norm. In just over a month, he changed the table three times.
Of course, Matsui Iwane also knew that he was rude, but there was nothing he could do. The huge losses made the Japanese high-level officials very dissatisfied.
He was a hidden official before. If it hadn't been for the Sino-Japanese War, he would have stayed at home eating sweet potatoes without anyone even asking him.
He didn't want to go back to that unforgettable time, he wanted to fight back, and he wanted to completely eliminate the Chinese lunatic who he couldn't kill despite all his efforts.
For this reason, he had already made a plan, which was to use Zhu Shengzhong to trick the Dragon Boat Festival into coming to Shanghai.
Of course, this is not enough, because the Imperial Japanese Army cannot be shameless and use Zhu Shengzhong to threaten him to come to Shanghai to die during the Dragon Boat Festival. Then those Western media will hype it up and humiliate the Japanese Empire internationally.
Although Matsui Iwane already hated these Western devils, it was obvious that the Japanese Empire did not yet have the strength to challenge the entire established colonists.
So he had to be patient and wait for another opportunity to come.
"Reporting to your Excellency, Your Excellency Chiba Sakuraichi has arrived."
At this moment, Japanese guards came to report.
At this time, Matsui Iwane, who was still angry just now, immediately showed a lewd smile, because the person he was waiting for had arrived! ...
