Mortars, grenades, and weapons that could threaten the machine gun positions of the Sakamoto detachment were all used, but the defense of the mountain road where Wang Laohu personally guarded was still rock solid.
There are a lot of trees in the Philippines, and they are all big tropical trees. If one tree is not enough, just two, and if two are not enough, three, there are seven trees in total. A machine gun barricade that cannot be blown down is made. "Boom." Another one. A grenade hit the trunk of the big tree above Wang Laohu's head and exploded. Fireworks were spraying out. Wang Laohu was holding a cigarette in his mouth but looked carefree.
The barrels of the Type 92 heavy machine gun in front of him were replaced by two, and Wang Laohu was able to successfully light two cigarettes with the barrels. This was also the biggest entertainment during the battle.
Sakamoto's detachment has charged seven times in a row, but each time, in addition to leaving dozens of corpses, it was unable to advance even one meter. And just when Sakamoto gritted his teeth and organized the eighth charge, the mountain road The sound of gunfire suddenly became intensive on the west side, but it was Qiao Anming who led the 15th Brigade to kill. Faced with the "sneak attack" without warning, a squadron of Japanese soldiers were defeated after not being able to hold on for five minutes. The camouflage-colored figures were defeated. Traveling through the mountains and forests, the Japanese commander on the west side was frightened and had a very bad premonition.
"Report, a large group of enemies appeared in the southwest." A Japanese second lieutenant reported to Sakamoto,
Sakamoto gritted his teeth, waved his hand fiercely and said: "Call General Sawada and ask for tactical support."
"Hai." A communications staff officer responded loudly, lowered his head and started to generate electricity.
Soon, he stood up and said: "Your Excellency, General Sawada called back. They have received the order from the headquarters, and the 8th Regiment of the support force is already engaged with the Chinese."
"Already fired." Sakamoto looked to the north with a gloomy face. He pricked up his ears and listened. He did hear the fierce sound of gunfire. His face looked a little better, and he carefully distinguished the gunfire in other places. , his eyes fell on the east side of the mountain road, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Break through to the east."
"Hai."
The 8th Regiment was indeed at war with the U.S.-Philippine coalition forces led by Sharp. About a kilometer behind Wang Lao Lao, the 8th Regiment was engaged in a desperate fight with the U.S.-Philippine coalition forces. The U.S.-Philippine coalition forces led by Sharp Sasaki's 8th Regiment seized the mountain road ahead of him, while he was directing his men to collect materials to build fortifications. The figure of the 8th Regiment appeared in the sight of the US-Philippine coalition scouts.
The man who led the 8th Regiment to rescue the Sakamoto detachment was none other than the commander of the Regiment, Eichigo disguised as Shota Sasaki.
After Jiang Yige received the order from Sawada Shigeru to support the Sakamoto detachment, he was still a little hesitant and didn't know how to position this battle. When he found out that it was not the students who were sniping at his troops, but Americans and Filipinos, he felt that Secretly he breathed a sigh of relief and decided to seize this opportunity to perform well.
Ouyang Yun made a plan to steal the sky and change the sun, and the plan was very grand. However, it is unknown how far Jiang Yige and Wang Mingcheng will go in the future. The carrier of the Fourth Division is really too weak. The Fourth Division alone can Even if those Osaka soldiers had an opportunity to stand out in front of them, Jiang Yige and Wang Mingcheng probably wouldn't have the chance to seize it. However, Sawada Shigeru took the risk to reorganize the 8th Ground Regiment. For Jiang Yige and Wang Mingcheng, It's like pie in the sky. Of course, the Indonesians are not strong right now, but they are better because of their plasticity. Now, they are facing the US-Philippine coalition. If Jiang Yige still can't seize this opportunity, then he will His future is definitely limited,
Coincidentally, a battle that Jiang Yige regarded as an opportunity to start was also regarded by Sharp as a rare opportunity to reshape the army. When the 14th Brigade appeared in front of Sharp again, Sharp's US-Philippine coalition forces were ravaged by the Japanese. Like a dog, it can be said that it has no fighting spirit. When he was in Sibuco, Sharp had already realized the weakness of the Fourth Division. His evaluation at the time was: This should be a peace-loving force.
Following the 14th Brigade, I watched the Xuebingjun first defeat a regiment of Japanese soldiers like chopping vegetables and melons, and then play tricks on two groups of Japanese soldiers like monkeys. In addition, there was the dramatic attack on the camp last night. After this successful experience, the soldiers of the American-Philippine Alliance not only no longer feared the Fourth Division, but even had their morale boosted by being able to fight with such a unit, which was short of the noisy welcome with gongs and drums.
Facing the aggressive enemy troops, the officers and soldiers of Du Disheng's unit, who served as the main force, not only did not have the slightest fear, but were very much looking forward to it.
At Xiao Anbao's suggestion, Sharp reorganized the troops. Now there are two brigades and four regiments under his command. Among them, Du Disheng, who had led the army to Zamboanga with Wang Laohu, was entrusted with the important task of serving as the "Samboanga" The brigade commander of Yan Brigade,
Du Disheng did learn a lot from Wang Laohu. For example, now, the Japanese army is less than 150 meters away from their defense line, but he is still squatting steadily, with no intention of giving an order to fire.
As the distance got closer, the Japanese army finally revealed its true colors in Lushan.
Sharp saw it in the telescope and couldn't help being a little surprised. He said to Marunan: "It's strange. They don't seem to be Japanese. Could they be rebels?"
Marunan took a telescope and looked carefully, shook his head and said: "No, they should be Indonesians, general. Their military discipline is better than the Japanese."
At this moment, with Du Disheng's "shoot", the battle started.
Going back a few hours, in the camp of the 8th Regiment, when the wake-up call sounded, Jiang Yige stood at the door of the barracks with a whip in hand and said loudly: "This is the first early gathering, I will give you five Minutes, if you don't show up in five minutes, just wait to be whipped."
Five minutes later, most Indonesians had already stood in front of Jiang Yige, but twenty-one people were still late, and nine of the latecomers had their pants pulled up. Obviously, they were all because of They were late to go to the toilet; the other two people were staggering and seemed to be unable to stand, as if they were seriously ill.
Jiang Yige turned a blind eye to this and just shouted in a deep voice: "Drag it over here."
Dozens of Indonesians wearing military police armbands came forward and dragged all 21 people out.
Jiang Yige walked up behind them expressionlessly, raised his whip and started beating without warning.
Screams rang out, and the two people standing at the end, whose bodies were still shaking, immediately fell to the ground. One of them said: "Sir, I wasn't late on purpose, it was because I was sick."
Jiang Yige stopped flogging a soldier and asked the officer on duty: "Have they asked for sick leave?"
The officer on duty replied respectfully: "No."
Jiang Yige smiled coldly, threw the whip on the ground, and shouted: "Twenty lashes for each person. Those who dare to dodge will get double lashes. Those who dare to resist will be punished by military law."
When the execution began, the sound of whipping sounded, and all the Indonesians fell into silence. Many of them even lost the courage to look at Jiang Yige.
An hour later, after the morning exercises, Jiang Yige was the last one to arrive at the dinner place. He walked up to an Indonesian soldier, took the rice bowl from his hand, glanced at the porridge that could almost illuminate the figure, and his expression suddenly changed. Feeling extremely gloomy, he walked to the officers' dining area, pointed at the Indonesian captains and said, "Follow me."
