The sky was getting brighter, and the truth about the "enemy" was finally revealed. Saito saw that the so-called enemies were actually only a dozen people, and the others were American and Filipino prisoners of war. He almost lost his breath and vomited blood. After the battle that lasted for more than an hour, The strength that the prisoners of war had gathered due to their desire to survive and their courage had been almost exhausted. Seeing them sitting in imageless positions one by one, and even the armed men looking exhausted, Saito closed his eyes in pain. Knowing that I have no chance of living,
Facing such an enemy, how could the nearly three thousand imperial troops at the gate surrender? And once the prisoners of war suffered too many casualties, they would definitely be killed to vent their anger.
"Do as I say. In a quarter of an hour, we will launch an attack and refuse to surrender." Zhang Liang said coldly to Saito, and then asked people to escort him and other Japanese prisoners of war to the front of the formation.
"I have asked Major Rivalan to take people to the canteen to cook. After we deal with the enemies at the gate, you will have a full meal first and then move immediately." Zhang Liang said to Grant, the prisoners of war His physique was too weak. Although the idea of encircling and annihilating the Japanese army in Paranaque was very tempting, he could only choose to give up.
"Will the Japanese surrender?" Grant asked,
"I don't know. This Japanese army was adapted from the remaining sailors of the Fengxiang aircraft carrier fleet. It has low morale and is not good at land warfare. Unfortunately, we have too few people. If there are thousands of people pretending to be pretentious, they will choose to surrender. ." Zhang Liang said uncertainly,
Saito moved forward with heavy steps. When he was still about 150 meters away from the fortifications at the gate, he stopped in accordance with the instructions of the jungle special warfare behind him. He turned around and looked at the American prisoners of war behind him, gritting his teeth. With a decision,
"Five minutes have passed." The jungle warrior behind him reminded him sternly,
"Saito, you gave up your resistance on your own initiative." Behind the fortifications at the gate, Lieutenant Colonel Kobayashi exposed half of his head and shouted loudly: "As an officer of the Royal Navy of the Empire of Japan, are you worthy of the military uniform you are wearing? Eight grid, the empire shame."
Saito sneered in his heart: "What a shame for the empire? If you had just arrived with reinforcements, it would have only lasted half an hour. How could we have fallen into such a miserable situation?" No wonder Saito has such an idea. The American and Filipino prisoners of war are really He was too weak, and a mere dozen students, even if they were Wolf Fangs, were not enough to break through the blockade of three thousand imperial troops. He knew clearly in his heart that the air raids in the past few days had affected their minds. On the surface, he Suddenly he put on a righteous and awe-inspiring look and shouted in a hissing voice: "Xiao Lin, this is the camp that was robbed by the Chinese. There are only a dozen of them." "Bah." "Well, kill them all." "Ta da da da." ,."
Japanese is a compulsory course for the special forces of the Xuebing Army. As for Zhang Liang, although he didn't bother to learn it on the surface, he secretly passed the relevant Japanese exam and got the corresponding certificate. He didn't expect that Saito I still have the courage to do so, but it seems too late.
The battle started again, and more than two hundred Japanese prisoners of war were knocked down in an instant. "Ba Ge, shameless white pigs, you are not a guarantee." A Japanese second lieutenant who was shot in the back shoulder turned around and cursed, but he happened to see Zhang Liang’s smiling face and the smoking muzzle in his hand,
Zhang Liang said with a smile: "I was the one who shouted just now, I am not an American, haha."
The Japanese second lieutenant was shot in the head by him, and he fell down with his eyes open.
Zhang Liang said to the jungle special battle who killed Saito: "Xiaosheng, why did you kill Saito? He thought we couldn't defeat the more than 2,000 Japanese on the opposite side. I still wanted to keep him to show him."
Zhang Liang acted very relaxed and casual, but Grant's face was serious. He was so hungry that he could hardly stand with his belly pressed against his vest. He looked around and saw that the other commandos were not much better than him, and he couldn't help but frown. The frown tightened,
Zhang Liang noticed his expression, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Brigadier General Grant, don't worry, don't say that the Japanese on the other side are just water ducks, they are serious infantrymen. I have a way to prevent them from eating." Let’s go.”
Saito ignored the previous sound of artillery, perhaps because there was only one cannon, but he forgot that the defenders at the gate were not even equipped with mortars and grenade launchers, let alone mountain artillery. Different from ordinary infantry, within the army's individual arms, even machine gunners also need to receive special training, not to mention mortar operators and grenadier operators. These two weapons will have backlash if they are not used properly. , let alone the water ducks themselves who dare not use it, even if they dare to use it, the Japanese officers of the Sixth Marine Division would not dare to equip them.
Behind the Japanese fortifications at the gate of the base, Kobayashi was impressed by Saito's heroic spirit in the end, and said emotionally to the Japanese officers around him: "We wrongly blamed Saito-kun, Saito-kun is well done, gentlemen, we Our enemies are just a bunch of rabble who are so hungry that they can’t even stand. Gentlemen, please show your bravery and avenge Aramura-dono and Saito-kun.”
All the Japs shouted "Hai" in unison and rushed to their respective fighting positions with full fighting spirit.
The battle was fierce but not exciting. The two sides shot at each other from a distance of several hundred meters. The defensive side was not very good at shooting. Only at close range could it cause damage to the attacking side. The other side was too weak to exert its usual combat power. Two or three, they didn’t have much energy to launch a charge, and seemed to be in a deadlock.
Kobayashi observed carefully for a while, and a smile gradually appeared on his face. Although he had lost contact with Furumura Keizo, because the local reinforcements led by Honma Masaharu were less than a day's journey from Manila, he believed that even if the US military The Bacca tribe had gained an advantage in Paranaque, and they absolutely did not dare to attack Cavite. This meant that as long as they could hold on for one day, they could guarantee victory. And according to the current situation, even if the American and Filipino prisoners of war had With the support of more than ten Wolf Fangs, it is extremely difficult to break through the line of defense commanded by him. It seems that a great achievement is not far away from him.
Xiao Lin was thinking about it. Suddenly, his adjutant exclaimed: "Your Excellency, look quickly."
Xiao Lin tilted his head slightly and looked in the direction of his finger. The next moment his face turned pale and he cursed: "Ba Ge, mountain artillery, ah, armored vehicle."
Cao Bixiao took more than 5,000 American and Filipino prisoners of war to the arsenal to transport firearms. Wang Shusheng thought that his artillery skills were limited, and it would be more reliable to get closer, so he asked people to push the mountain cannon to the front. As for the armored vehicle, it was the American armored vehicle. The Filipino prisoners of war unexpectedly gained something while searching for firearms. This old American-made M2 armored vehicle has thin armor and the Type 92 heavy machine gun can effectively damage it at a distance of two hundred meters. In fact, it is no longer suitable for the current battlefield. But the problem is that Xiao Lin doesn't know. Moreover, although he has four Type 92 heavy machine guns in his hand, there are mountain cannons on the opposite side. If all four heavy machine guns are defeated by the mountain cannons, then what can he use to defend the opponent? What about the armored vehicles?
