Yamashita Fengfumi was really prepared to fight for his life, but unfortunately, he missed one point. He would not have thought that the Xuebing Army had systematic and strict protection against chemical weapons. When the first mustard gas bomb exploded on the Xuebing Army position, When he came, the sensitive Hou Hua felt it immediately. Then, without hesitation, he gave the order for the entire army to put on gas masks immediately and withdraw from the battle.
The Japanese are really crazy. The troops of both sides are still completely entangled at this moment. They dare to use chemical weapons. Because of Ouyang Yun's existence, Renqiu Military Academy has a special course for chemical weapons, and the Xuebing Army's The chemical protection equipment is no less than that of the current US military. In addition to advanced gas masks, each soldier is also equipped with protective gloves.
Hou Hua did not know that the Japanese army used mustard gas, but gas bombs have their own distinctive characteristics, such as less fragments produced after explosion, almost no explosive surface, etc.
All officers and soldiers of the infantry battalion quickly put on gas masks and retreated to the rear in an orderly manner. At the same time, the tank regiment that received the message also began to dress and retreat.
The reaction of the Xuebing Army was quick and accurate. Although more than 100 people still inevitably suffered a large number of casualties due to inhaling poisonous gas, compared with the Japanese troops in the Hetong area, their casualties were much lighter.
Yamashita never expected that the young Xuebing Army would have such sophisticated and mature methods in dealing with mustard gas. Although the southeast wind was blowing at this time, the Xuebing Army was downwind, but what they did in Hou Hua was After giving up the option of retreat, the "brave" 79th Regiment quickly took over the positions they left, which directly led to the Japanese gas bombs finally directly affecting their own people.
Many of the officers and soldiers of the 79th Regiment had some knowledge of mustard gas. The Japanese army was also equipped with individual gas masks. However, their reaction was much slower than that of Hou Hua. Until the order from Yamashita was conveyed, all the Japanese soldiers Only then did I realize that I had been "shot". Putting on the gas mask at this moment could only provide psychological comfort.
The Xuebing Army quickly fled the battlefield and moved closer to Changping. Yamashita suddenly found that the shells he fired had completely landed on his own head. He couldn't help but feel anxious and angry. When he gave the order to stop firing, forty-three shells had already been fired. Among them, except for the first ten or so rounds that hit the hostile target, the rest were all taken by the 79th Regiment. As for his original target tank regiment, due to the sealing problem of the vehicle body, there were only three machine guns. The soldier inhaled a small amount of mustard gas.
"General, the Chinese have escaped." The unfortunate Moriki Colonel also inhaled a small amount of mustard gas, which made his voice a little hoarse when he asked Yamashita for instructions on the next step.
Hundreds of Japs were wearing gas masks in a panic in the yellow mist. This sight made the foot of the mountain feel like he was facing an abyss. He roared: "Pursue, pursue, even if they are all broken into pieces, we will destroy the Chinese army." Car." Then he put his left hand on his forehead and said in his heart: It's over, it's over, this time, I'm really done, I'm shooting myself in the foot, that's what the Chinese say,
Facing the rapidly retreating student army, the Japanese army pursued them in hot pursuit. However, because the Japanese army's gas masks were made with poor craftsmanship, the goggles seriously affected their eyesight and indirectly affected their marching speed. Therefore, the Japanese army's pursuit was ultimately just a thunderstorm. The sound is loud and the raindrops are small, and it cannot play its intended role at all.
The incubation period of mustard gas is 2-12 hours. This is the theoretical action time. In fact, once a person's skin is touched by the gas, there will be an allergic reaction, and then it will start to become red, swollen, blistered, itchy and begin to rot. Once it is inhaled into the body, vomiting and severe coughing will occur.
The first death in the infantry battalion due to mustard gas inhalation occurred at around seven o'clock in the evening. The soldier could not bear the torture and committed suicide with a bayonet.
At this time, Ouyang Yun had just rushed back to Changping from the front line. Facing nearly a hundred infantry battalion officers and soldiers in the field hospital who showed serious masochistic tendencies, the junior officer became angry. He shouted at Liu Kui and others beside him: "Who, who is it?" .”
It was rare for the junior officer to get angry, and his words were a bit unclear. Liu Kui and others did not dare to respond.
Seeing Hou Hua with a face of shame and red eyes, Ouyang Yun walked over and grabbed his collar with both hands, lifting him off the ground without any effort. He stared at a pair of red eyes and shouted: "Tell me ,who is the team led by which devil?"
"The Japanese army is the 40th Brigade, which is affiliated to the 20th Division. The brigade commander should be Yamashita Tomofumi."
"Yamashita Fengwen, this bastard, he actually used poison gas bombs." Ouyang Yun had some impression of this Japanese name in his mind. Ouyang Yun put down Hou Hua, waved his hand fiercely and said to Pan Meiren: "Record the order, in the future, whenever you encounter the 40th All the Japanese in the brigade will be beheaded."
"Military seat, what should we do with our brothers? Seeing them being tortured, I, my heart is really, really..." Hou Hua said, with heroic tears in his eyes.
A doctor came over and said softly: "I have been injected with various anti-allergic drugs, as well as sedatives, analgesics, including penicillin, but they have no effect."
Even in the era before Ouyang Yun, there was no cure for mustard gas. After a long silence, he said softly: "Transfer it to Ren Qiu and try our best to treat it. Well, I'll talk to everyone."
He raised his head, tidied up his military appearance, and walked up to the young man closest to him. He was a lieutenant platoon leader. He was scratching his ulcerated neck with his hands and making hissing noises when he saw the little boy. The officer came over. He hurriedly tried to get up, but was held down by Ouyang Yun. Ouyang Yun's voice was quite loud: "Li Caiwen, I lost the prize. You guys fought well today. It wasn't you who repelled the little devil from Li's house." It would have been impossible for us to win such a big victory with the attack launched by the villagers. Let me tell you, this time we eliminated more than 3,000 Japanese..."
Cadet officers and soldiers have their names and unit numbers embroidered on their armbands.
Because of the respiratory tract infection, Li Caiwen was speechless at this time. He gestured with his hands as if he had something to say. After gesticulating for a while, Hou Hua saw the meaning and handed him paper and pen. On the bed, Li Caiwen wrote with a trembling right hand: Military seat, if we die, we will be regarded as martyrs. I, I still have two sisters at home.
This is what Li Caiwen is most concerned about right now. The welfare of the student army should be the best in the country at present. Although many soldiers join the student army not for this reason, there are also some Li Caiwen, whose family conditions are not good and who wants to join the army to improve his living conditions,
Ouyang Yun was suddenly disturbed by something, his nose felt sore, and he burst into tears.
Men don't shed tears easily, but they are not sad yet. Ouyang Yun is not a hypocritical person. In fact, compared with modern people, people in the post-era have much tougher nerves and much thicker skin. Traveling to this Time and space, it has been more than a year in total. After experiencing too many killings, and the power in his hands gradually became stronger, his heart gradually became a lot harder, but now it seems that in principle and in his bones, Nothing was lost, "Don't worry, the regulations in the army and your welfare will never change. Li Caiwen, promise me, you must live. You must know that our career has just begun. We are not only To drive away the little devils, we must also build our country and make our country stand at the forefront of the world."
After hearing these words, Li Caiwen had a smile on his face. He wrote: Military officer, for the first time, I know what it feels like to be worse than death, but please rest assured, I will not give up lightly.
"Good brothers and comrades, you must learn from Brother Li Caiwen and learn from his spirit of daring to fight to the death..."
Ouyang Yun always does what he says he does. Although he always gives people the impression of being motivated, on the other hand, it also makes people dare not to peek into any of his words. People who are familiar with him know better. They, as junior officers, must retaliate in some respects, especially against the Japanese and traitors.
Shortly after leaving the field hospital, Ouyang Yun issued a "decapitation order" specifically for the 40th Brigade to the leaders of the four external forces: Stern, Chu Tiange, Shan Renxiong, and Guo Biao. The "Renqiu Daily" took two pages to expose the fact that the Japanese army used mustard gas bombs. The report was written by Mei Lanshu, who had been transferred from outside. She ended with a murderous quote from Ouyang Yun, This is what Ouyang Yun told her on the phone: This means that our battle with the Japanese army will enter a new stage from now on, that is, we will not cull the Japanese and puppet troops at all costs and by any means. Of course, , For those puppet soldiers who still care about the motherland, we give them the opportunity to choose and welcome them to join the torrent of national resistance against Japan.
As Xuebingjun gradually became bigger, its subordinate media also became more and more powerful, and gradually became as powerful as Nanjing's "Central Daily News". Among them, as the only TV station in the country, Renqiu Radio Station is the only one that can pass The organization's video reporting on the war attracted the attention of all parties at home and abroad.
Facts have proved that Ouyang Yun's making such a big noise on this matter was effective. Countries such as the United States lodged written protests to Japan. Not to mention, later, when the Xuebing Army used the same means to attack the Japanese army, When this kind of attack is carried out, it becomes logical.
At that time, some people woke up: Ouyang Yun had made so many moves earlier, it seemed that they were all in preparation for today's action.
