    Chapter 260: Battle of Xiaowutai Mountain

    The Japanese army made a desperate charge. Only a few hundred people could reach the first fortification. This was also their last hope. With the fortifications as a support, they no longer had to face the damn Chinese and endless machine gun bullets, and they could get a glimmer of hope.  A breather.

    The wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. What appears in front of the Japanese army is a row of erect human walls. Various weapons in their hands shoot bullets mercilessly. The Japanese army is still dozens of meters away from the forward position.  When they were within a short distance, they suffered a devastating blow from the defending Chinese troops inside the first line of fortifications.

    A brigade of more than a thousand Japanese soldiers, just as Badalhu expected, were all left at the front by the Japanese division and turned into cold corpses. The Japanese army unit he relied on as the last barrier suffered a loss of one-third.  One force.

    I watched helplessly as the soldiers of the imperial army were massacred by the Chinese, but there was nothing I could do. Behind me were more than 10,000 bandits, how could I expect them to perform miracles?  Cold sweat broke out on Badalhu's head, and he slumped on the chair tiredly.

    The ruthless Chinese army mercilessly wiped out all the remaining imperial soldiers. The mortars of the first brigade were fired at the forward positions, and the Japanese soldiers who huddled behind the corpses of their companions and had no fighting spirit were targeted.  , every artillery shell sent the Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough to survive into the sky.

    If we follow normal tactics, the forward troops should launch a counterattack at this time to eliminate the remaining enemies and prevent them from establishing temporary fire support points in the forward position to provide cover for the next charge.

    Zhao Dengyu and the officers and soldiers of the 113th Brigade also considered this. They had already fixed their bayonets and were preparing for a counterattack. The soldiers' bodies were tense, like sharp arrows that were ready to be fired.  The order to charge was not received for a long time.

    What they heard was the unhurried and sporadic sound of mortars. The fighting method of the ** division not only puzzled Zhao Dengyu and all the officers and soldiers of the 113th Brigade, but also made them feel novel. Didn't the soldiers just use  Come to charge?

    When the battle reached this point, the hundreds of Japanese soldiers who charged in the first wave were already lying there. The remaining ones were already ripe persimmons. They fell to the ground with just a slight touch and were smashed to pieces. Why waste it?  Precious shells?

    This is the principle that commanders at all levels of the ** division have always adhered to. They would rather exchange a hundred artillery shells for a little Japanese than use the lives of soldiers to fight against the little Japanese. More importantly, now they are just holding back those in front of them.  The enemy buys time to outflank the troops on both wings, and there is no need to create opportunities for the little devils to fight with bayonets.

    The Japanese soldiers who were poisoned by the Bushido spirit fought back ferociously before dying, and were able to fire grenades and die together with the surrounding soldiers. Such things were seen many times in the Northeast, and all the Japanese divisions had experience  , and will not increase unnecessary casualties in order to show some courage.

    Let your samurai do nothing, and there is no place to make it. It is also a division of wealth. There are arsenal factories and ammunition. Instead of being a troops such as the 29th Army, a hundred cannonballs can fight a battle.

    At around four o'clock in the morning, the sky was already turning white. Since losing a large group of Japanese soldiers, Badalhu did not organize the next attack. The bandits had been defeated by the fierce firepower of the Japanese division, and the outcome of the Japanese army and bandits in front,  They were frightened to death. They had never seen so many light and heavy machine gun salvos in their lives.

    The battlefield fell silent. Looking at the dark position in front, it looked like a monster squatting there. The bandit leaders felt chills in their hearts. What kind of army were they fighting?  I chased them all the way, and now I see how powerful the opponent is. This business is not easy to do. With this posture, no matter how many brothers came up, they were all left there.

    Badalhu also felt bad. In the past few days, he had been chasing the troops escorting the ** division. The other party seemed unwilling to entangle, blocking them at all levels, fighting and walking away. But tonight, he was uncharacteristically taking a tough stance.  Fighting head-on positional warfare with more than 20,000 people, what is their purpose in doing this?  What's the bigger plan?

    Looking at the surrounding terrain, there are dangerous highlands on both sides, but the battlefield is in the middle of a basin, which is obviously not good for itself. If the main force of the ** Division outflanks them, the troops will be surrounded.  The troops of the ** Division are in constant contact with themselves and seem to be deliberately attracting themselves to this place.

    "I am alone, but there are troops behind the ** Division, and there is an insurmountable death zone in front. If the tens of thousands of main troops of the ** Division whose whereabouts are unknown rush over and encircle them on two wings, it will really be impossible to escape.

    What¡¯s more, Wang Ying¡¯s troops have lost contact since yesterday afternoon. More than 3,000 people and a squadron of imperial soldiers have mysteriously disappeared like this?  Everything was so abnormal. Badalhu carefully put all the clues together, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

    A trap, definitely a trap??, and the one who designed this trap could only be the devil-like Tang Qiuli. From the beginning, these weapons, ammunition and escort troops were a big bait, attracting bandits from all over the place to come and make plans, and then gradually attracted these bandits.  When they arrive at a suitable encirclement location, the main force of the ** division must be heading towards the war zone.

    Badalhu broke into a cold sweat. He seemed to hear, in the dawn light, the mighty marching footsteps of thousands of troops, getting closer and closer like a heavy rain. With an unrivaled momentum, he  Together with more than 2,000 imperial troops and more than 20,000 bandits, they will be overwhelmed soon.

    Maybe this trap was not aimed at the imperial army at first, but due to his own stupidity and misjudgment of the situation, coupled with his eagerness to make meritorious deeds, he led a regiment of the imperial army into this huge trap and killed more than a thousand people.  The loyal and brave soldiers of the Japanese Empire have been shattered. Even if they die, they cannot forgive their sins.

    Wang Ying and the imperial soldiers of that squadron must have been eliminated, otherwise, they would not have failed to contact themselves. The question now is how to safely escape from the fate of being surrounded by heavy troops of the Japanese Army.

    Badalhu had figured it all out. He had a deep sense of failure in his heart. He thought that everything was under his control, driving the bandits and soldiers to fight to the death, so that the Japanese Empire could reap the benefits of the fishermen.  Thinking about it now, the sad thing about him is that Tang Qiuli must have known that there were thousands of imperial soldiers among these bandits, otherwise, this devil would not have gone to great lengths to weave this big web.

    Thinking of the recent report from the North China Garrison Command that Song Zheyuan's troops of the 29th Army were frequently mobilized and had abnormal activities, Tang Qiuli was mentally prepared to fully engage with the imperial army. This devil

    Badalhu almost groaned and said this sentence. The huge contrast of this role change was about to break his psychological bottom line. The remaining two Japanese captains looked at the commander's face, changing like a rainbow.  He was uncertain, but finally settled on a pale white color. He looked at Badalhu worriedly, wondering if this Japanese-Mongolian hybrid had a heart attack and was going to see Amaterasu.

    Looking at the worried expressions of the Japanese officers at all levels around him, Badalhu felt that a warm current suddenly rose up. He was still a lovable compatriot. Those Chinese bandits could not count on him. This guy who had forgotten his ancestors was so moved that he almost shed tears.  , he felt a strong urge in his heart that he would not regret his own death, and he must bring the remaining Imperial Japanese soldiers out of danger safely.

    Badalhu bowed deeply to the surrounding Japanese officers at all levels and said in a choked voice: "Gentlemen, my mistake has put everyone in danger. Please forgive me. I will summon the leaders of the Chinese bandits immediately."  We are having a meeting to study the retreat plan, please cooperate with my arrangements, please."

    What he thought was his sincere expression was met with the disdainful looks of these Japanese officers. When did the samurai of the Empire of Japan learn to cry? It¡¯s the same as for women. Badalhu Jun, but not for samurai. Pure Empire of Japan.  It¡¯s not the people¡¯s

    "These Japanese officers finally admired this guy's clever idea and did not say anything unpleasant. However, they didn't take it seriously when they heard that he was in danger. Isn't it just that the attack was frustrated?  It's not that serious, not for samurai, and certainly not for soldiers.

    Badalhu knew that these arrogant officers did not believe that the situation was already critical, so they were not to blame. From an information point of view, Badalhu had been in constant contact with the North China garrison, and the information he had at his disposal was much of theirs.  times, and also gained a deeper and comprehensive understanding of the situation.

    According to his idea, at the beginning, he wanted to wait until daybreak and request the North China Garrison Command to send planes to bomb the Japanese division's positions indiscriminately to cooperate with the evacuation of the troops. For the safety of a regiment of Japanese soldiers,  He believed that the supreme commander of the North China garrison would do this. Otherwise, once he retreated like this, he would be chased and attacked by the Japanese division troops, and the situation would be very dangerous.

    However, he thought about it carefully, and now, the most disadvantageous thing for him is time. If he stays in this place for one more minute, there will be more danger. While the main force of the ** division has not yet encircled them, they just retreat or evacuate.  , if the delay is long, once surrounded, it will be a breakout situation, which is thousands of times more difficult than evacuation.

    According to his vision, the current dangerous situation was exaggerated dozens of times by these bandit leaders, creating a trend of imminent disaster. In fact, the situation was also very bad. The bandits must be in danger and find their own way out.  No one is willing to face the fate of being annihilated while running away. This is called risking death and surviving. The energy of the dying struggle is amazing.

    They will definitely launch a desperate attack on the Japanese division's position. Then, the soldiers of the Empire of Japan will follow the path opened by the bandits with the corpses and successfully escape from the battlefield, leaving these stupid and greedy bandits to fight for the Great Japan.  Let's serve the Empire one last time.

      Badalhu is a man with some abilities. His grasp of human nature and people's hearts is very accurate and sophisticated. He guessed the inner thoughts of the bandits very accurately. The 20,000 bandits broke out with the hope of death.  Determination, this force, is no less powerful than the flood that breaks the embankment, and its impact is astonishing.
