The retreat of Rao Guohua's front-line troops was very covert, so when the Japanese army began to counterattack, they realized that the enemy had actually "escaped". Nakamura and Uchiyama were both veteran generals. In order to avoid causing panic, they used the excuse that "the Chinese army was defeated by the imperial army." The counterattack launched by the Japanese army was "frightened by their bravery." The withdrawal of the Xuebing Army just fulfilled their lie. As a result, the morale of the Japanese army was high, and the counterattack became more fierce. "Counterattack with all your strength." Under the slogans of Nakamura and Uchiyama, All the Japanese soldiers rushed towards the bottom, and then they used guns to force the puppet soldiers to charge forward through the collapsed tunnels and more than a dozen hidden entrances. They rushed out of the collapsed tunnels and out of the hidden entrances.
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor." "The Imperial Army is mighty."... The Japanese soldiers shouted in a hissing voice, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Rao Guohua and others had received a notification from Ding Yi at this time and knew that they were pouring gasoline into the fortress. At this point, he finally knew the overall plan of the commander-in-chief's "fire attack strategy". For closed tunnels, fire attack is indeed It was the best policy, and it was formulated by the Commander-in-Chief himself and executed by Langya. Therefore, Rao Guohua and others had no doubt about the result and became excited one by one. Zhang Lingfu was an exception. He felt doubtful and a little disappointed at the same time. What kind of clever trick does Ouyang Yunhui come up with? It turns out to be a fire attack. The tunnels in the fortress are extremely complicated. Will the fire attack be effective? In the telegram sent by the headquarters to Rao Guohua last night, they were asked to cooperate with Langya's actions. , requiring them to block the Japanese in the fortress, so Rao Guohua began to arrange a blockade of the fortress while withdrawing the front-line troops. Now, his arrangement has taken effect, and several puppet troops have just climbed out of the collapsed tunnel. He realized that the Japanese had noticed and were preparing to escape from the sea of fire. He put down the telescope with a cold snort, then waved his right hand fiercely and ordered: "Brothers, open fire."
"Click, click, click..." The gunshots of the general-purpose machine gun exploded immediately, followed by the firing of various types of mortars, and the screams of artillery shells. The puppet soldiers and soldiers who had just rushed out of the collapsed tunnel The devil screamed and quickly turned around and jumped back.
The attacking side and the defensive side were all at odds, and the military advantage of the Xuebing Army was finally fully utilized. The narrow tunnel entrance suddenly became the biggest flaw that limited the Japanese army's deployment of troops. Those Japanese who rushed out from the hidden entrance suddenly was knocked down. At the same time, Hai Dongqing on the top of the mountain also began to attack the riverside of the fortress. It was obvious that Ding Yi was already prepared for this move by the Japanese army.
Two Haidongqing were left to guard around the top of the mountain, and all the other Haidongqing were sent out to participate in the battle. Ding Yi's tense face relaxed, and he said to the adjutant beside him with relief: "Okay, the little devil can't turn over the bubbles." Already."
There is still a loophole in this "fire attack strategy" formulated by Ouyang Yun, and this loophole lies in the fact that the little devils ignited it themselves at the beginning of the infusion of napalm. In that case, the Japanese army would not only suffer much less losses, but also be able to stop the Wolf Fangs. Continue to pour gasoline into it. The fire has not started yet, but the Japanese army has launched a counterattack at the bottom of the fortress. This shows that the Japanese commanders are not aware of this at all, and even if they react now, they have already eaten it. Because of this By that time, they had poured more than fifty tons of diluted napalm into the water.
Inside the fortress, seeing the counterattack troops being bombed back again and again, Nakamura and Uchiyama were anxious, and the feeling of doom in their hearts was getting heavier and heavier. Suddenly, they smelled a smell of gasoline at the end of their noses, and Uchiyama slashed at the enemy in front of them with his command knife. Shibi shouted loudly: "His Majesty the Emperor's warriors, we have killed nearly 10,000 Chinese people. Now is the best time for us to take advantage of the situation to pursue and expand the results. For the great cause of His Majesty the Emperor's power over the world, charge forward. "
"Your Excellency, the Chinese artillery fire is too fierce. I really can't get out." A squadron leader in front of him couldn't help but said. The squadron leader was very puzzled. In fact, not only him, but most of the little devils couldn't understand. They There are obviously strong fortifications that can be used to defend the China Army, and the previous battles have proven its correctness. Why did the two captains change their original intention and launch a counterattack? Without the cover of the fortifications and no artillery support, they simply If you are no match for the superior China Army, this kind of counterattack is no different from risking death.
About a quarter of an hour after the counterattack began, half of the puppet troops in a regiment were dead, and the Japanese casualties were more than 300. It is no wonder that the middle and low-level officers of the Nakamura Regiment and Uchiyama Regiment questioned the orders from above.
The morale of the troops was seriously depressed. Uchiyama was thinking about telling the truth when suddenly a little Japanese screamed from behind him: "What is this? Gasoline! It's gasoline. Wow, the Chinese army is going to attack with fire."
Uchiyama was shocked. After all his hard work, the gasoline actually flowed to the bottom. How much gasoline the China Army had prepared could not be concealed. There was no point in hiding it anymore. Uchiyama gritted his teeth and said sternly: "Emperor Your Majesty's warriors, if you don't want to be burned alive, rush out. The cruel Chinese people on Bageya Road want to burn the imperial army to death, and we must not let them succeed."
Nakamura also shouted, but because he was drunk, his tone sounded unclear and there were obvious logical errors: "Soldiers, rush out, rush out, if you don't want to die, rush out, Chinese people , the Chinese people will not die well."
On the top of the mountain, as the last barrel of gasoline was poured into the mountain, Ding Yi ordered everyone to board the plane and retreat. Then he was the last one to board a Haidongqing and took the tip of a flamethrower from a Langya. , let Haidongqing rise to a height of about fifty meters, and then aimed at a hole and pulled the trigger, "pop." A tongue of flame suddenly jumped out from the head of the gun, and the tongue of flame quickly penetrated into the hole, and then "pop" There was an explosion, and a pillar of fire more than ten meters high spewed out from the hole. Even diluted napalm burned at a temperature of over several hundred degrees. Such a high temperature made Ding Yi feel the fire even from a distance of more than ten meters. With his heart chilling, he shouted: "Pull the height up." Then he picked up the microphone and called Rao Guohua, telling him that the fire had been successfully lit and asking him to strengthen the blockade.
"I saw it." Rao Guohua replied,
Napalm, even if it is diluted, has terrible ductility once it is ignited. Rao Guohua and others saw a pillar of fire more than ten meters high erupting from the top of the mountain one moment, and the next moment they saw the fortress looking like a lit firework from above. Flames were spraying downwards and outwards. The heights of these flames varied depending on the size of the hole. Some even just spit out a puff of smoke, but those who knew the structure of the fortress could clearly imagine the scene inside.
"Rumble." The dull sound of explosions came from the fortress, and he felt the tremors of the mountains under his feet. Rao Guohua knew that the ammunition depot of the Japs was ignited and exploded. Rao Guohua and the others were separated by more than two thousand meters. They could all clearly feel the shaking of the ground, and the feeling of the little devils in the fortress was even stronger. The explosion was so violent that it seemed as if the entire fortress would be collapsed. Sand and stones fell from the top of their heads. Nakamura and Uchiyama's face turned pale, and he suddenly shouted and rushed towards the cave entrance: "Get out, hurry up, get out."
It was actually not difficult to rush out, but because no one out of ten could survive, the Japanese soldiers were very hesitant at first. The so-called "no tears until they see the coffin" was their mentality before. But now, when the flames are about to burn, they But he couldn't care about anything, "rush out." "Mom, I don't want to be burned to death." "Run quickly."...
There are more than a dozen entrances on the ground floor of the fortress that connect to the outside. The tunnels connected to these entrances are already filled with puppet troops and Japanese soldiers. Because Nakamura and Uchiyama are the highest-ranking officers in the fortress, Japanese soldiers habitually like to crowd around them. , so the tunnel they were in was the most densely populated place. When an inexplicable danger came, more people could embolden them. But now, the sequelae have come, and nearly 600 little devils are scrambling to rush out, but the result is disastrous. A stampede event was avoided. Under the threat of violent shaking of the mountain, the Japanese soldiers burst out with unprecedented strength. More than a dozen Japanese soldiers only had time to scream and were trampled under the feet of their comrades. In the face of the threat of death, The identities of Nakamura and Uchiyama as the top commanders did not matter. They shouted at the top of their lungs and even waved their command swords to maintain order. However, under the threat of the heat wave rolling in behind them, the Japanese soldiers could not care less about their superiority and inferiority. After the breakup, Nakamura, who had drunk too much, could not effectively control his body. As a result, after his adjutant and guards were scattered by the crowd, he lost his protection and was knocked to the ground by the crowd. Before he could say "I am Colonel Nakamura" "After shouting, hundreds of pairs of suede shoes stepped on him, turning his call to reveal his identity into screams and moans.
