The Japanese's retaliatory bombardment lasted for more than half an hour, and the bombardment did not stop until it was completely dark.
After the shelling stopped, the Japanese made an unexpected request, allowing their corpse collection team to enter the battlefield and take away their corpses.
In exchange, the Coast Guard Corps can also take away its own bodies.
When transporting corpses, neither party is allowed to shoot at the other party.
Zhong Yi agreed to the little devil¡¯s request because it was late summer and the weather was still very hot. If the body was left on the battlefield without being buried, it would soon rot.
"Allowing the remains of fallen soldiers to rot is not only a desecration of the heroic spirit, but also triggers a febrile epidemic.
So the two sides agreed on a time and each sent a team of officers and soldiers to the battlefield to collect the remains.
By late at night, the bodies of the fallen Japanese soldiers were transported back to Zhangqi Town and placed outside the ancestral hall.
Surrounded by Takeshi Sakurada and several regiment captains, Sakata Jun walked out of the ancestral hall that served as the headquarters, and at a glance he saw the Japanese corpses lined up at the entrance of the ancestral hall.
Katano Sadami took a step forward and said: "Detachment leader, in today's battle, a total of 489 imperial soldiers of the 1st Infantry Battalion were shattered, and 16 others were seriously injured."
A look of regret immediately appeared on Sakata Jun's cheek.
Four hundred and eighty-nine imperial soldiers, that¡¯s nearly three squadrons!
In just one day, strictly speaking less than half a day, nearly three infantry squadrons were lost! This made Sakata Jun feel sad but also secretly shocked.
The combat effectiveness of Zhong Yi¡¯s Coastal Defense Corps is so powerful!
This is still on the premise that the Coastal Defense Corps lacks solid fortifications. If it were changed to another battlefield, if the Coastal Defense Corps had solid fortifications as a basis, wouldn't the losses of their Sakata detachment be even greater?
It wasn¡¯t until this moment that Sakata Jun truly realized that the Coastal Defense Corps might really be a difficult opponent!
At that moment, Jun Sakata asked with a dark face: "Katano-kun, please tell me how this battle was fought?"
Sakurada Takeshi and the other captains' eyes also fell on Katano Sadami's face. They were all wondering, how did the Katano Alliance fight this battle?
How bad must Katano Sadami¡¯s conductor be to cause so many deaths?
"Hai." Katano Sadami bowed deeply and said, "Detachment leader, this is what happened."
Having said this, Katano Sadami told Sakata Shun exactly what happened this afternoon at the western foot of Jiulong Mountain. The old Japanese was quite tough and had no intention of excusing himself.
After listening to Katano Sadami¡¯s story, Sakata Jun¡¯s face finally looked better.
Sakata Jun nodded and said in a deep voice: "So, the loss of the first infantry squadron was entirely due to lack of preparation, and the second and third squadrons were also due to lack of firepower?"
"Yes." Katano Sadami said, "In the first attack, we suffered a big loss because we didn't know much about the firepower of the China Army. The two infantry squadrons that went into the second attack were also because of the China Army. With superior light firepower, the Imperial Army lost more than half of its strength before the two sides could engage in hand-to-hand combat."
"But even so, there are still seventy or eighty imperial soldiers who broke into the China Army's defensive position, right?" Sakamoto said along the way, "Seventy or eighty imperial soldiers faced the China Army with less than a hundred people, and they couldn't take advantage in a hand-to-hand battle. ?¡±
"Yes." Katano Sadami said with a dark face, "Although I don't want to admit it, it is true. At least eighty imperial soldiers faced less than a hundred Chinese soldiers, and they were indeed defeated in hand-to-hand combat."
"Baga." Sakamoto said along the way, "It seems that we need to re-estimate the combat effectiveness of the East Zhejiang Coastal Defense Corps, and the next battle will be more difficult than expected!"
¡¡
The Sakamoto detachment suffered heavy losses, as did the Coastal Defense Corps.
There are 125 people in the 5th Regiment, 2nd Battalion, 1st Company and 1st Platoon of the Second Detachment of the Coastal Defense Corps. Only two people survived, Yu Qi and Qin Jiu, and the only two people left were injured to varying degrees.
At this moment, the 123 bodies in row 1 have been transported back to Xuejiacun.
Looking at the more than a hundred corpses lined up at the entrance of the village, Zhong Yi could not help but feel sad.
Cao Guolin even stood behind Zhong Yi and cried secretly. As a patrol officer, Cao Guolin usually only saw one or two dead people while chasing fugitives. When had he seen so many dead people all together?
More than a hundred corpses placed together look really scary.
?At this moment, a transport team of women and children suddenly passed by the entrance of the village.
Today, the battle to defend Yinjiang has begun, and the entire Yinjiang manpower and material resources have been mobilized.
Especially for manpower, all the villagers and even women and children in Yinjiang took action to support the front line. The men formed civilian wives to help the army build fortifications, while the women and children took over the work left by the men and organized transportation teams. Responsible for delivering food, weapons and ammunition to the front line.
It was really a coincidence that the transport team passing by the entrance of Xuejia Village happened to be from Luotuo Town.
This is a big deal, because the 2nd Battalion of the 5th Regiment was formed based on the militia of Luotuo Town.
Seeing so many corpses at the entrance of the village, the wives and aunts of the transportation team panicked. When they inquired again, dozens of people in the team immediately began to cry uncontrollably.
Looking at the women and children crying together, Zhong Yi felt even more painful.
One of the aunts, in particular, looked to be over seventy years old. She was walking unsteadily and tremblingly, as if she might fall down in the next second. At this moment, the aunt was lying on a corpse, crying. Tears flowed freely.
Cao Guolin wiped away his tears and said to Zhong Yi: "Please take a seat, this old man's husband's surname is Fang."
Speaking of this meal, Cao Guolin said sadly: "Almost everyone in Luotuo Town has the surname Qin. There are only a dozen families with the surname Fang, and Fang's family is one of them."
Zhong Yi said in a deep voice: "How do you recognize her?"
Cao Guolin said: "Because Aunt Fang has seven sons."
"Seven sons?" When Zhong Yi heard this, his heart suddenly trembled.
"Well, Aunt Fang gave birth to seven sons in total." Cao Guolin nodded and said, "But now there are only three sons left. Oh no, there are only two left now."
Zhong Yi said solemnly: "There are only two left now? What's going on?"
Cao Guolin said: "His eldest son and second son joined the Zhejiang Army and died in the warlord melee. His third son died in the Northern Expedition. His fourth son died in the Songhu Anti-Japanese War in 128. Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi all participated. The Luotuo Town Vigilante Group was incorporated into the Coastal Defense Corps more than three months ago. Xiao Wu is in the 1st Company, Xiaoliu is in the 2nd Company, and Xiaoqi is in the 3rd Company." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel. com
