Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Although Liu Yi usually has good luck, God was not on his side today. When they wanted to chase them out, they were discovered by the Japanese army who reacted.  In an instant, four Type 11 light machine guns and dozens of Type 38 rifles swept towards them carrying a dense rain of bullets.

    Liu Yi, who was unable to raise his head under the heavy rain of bullets, was complaining in his heart. It seemed that not only would he not be able to eat meat today, but he might even have to get in.  Before he had time to think about it, Liu Yi shouted loudly to the soldiers behind him: "Go back quicklygo to the house behind!"

    Following Liu Yi¡¯s order, more than a dozen soldiers took turns to cover each other and quickly retreated to a small house nearby. After entering, they quickly closed the door and blocked the intersection in front with firepower.

    "Da da da¡­¡­"

    The monkey hiding next to a window used the Thompson submachine gun in his hand to shoot a Japanese soldier who was approaching him. Just as he was about to move, a string of 6.5-caliber machine gun bullets flew past his face.  Not only did the head rub off a piece of his skin, but the scorching heat attached to the bullet also scorched a piece of the skin around him. The monkey was so frightened that he squatted in the corner and shouted loudly to Liu Yi: "Company Commander,  There are too many Japs, and we simply can¡¯t suppress them with just a dozen of us and guns!¡±

    "You have to suppress it even if you can't, otherwise we will be dead!" Liu Yi's face was very gloomy. He originally wanted to catch their brother off guard, but he never thought that the Japanese would react so quickly when they smelled something wrong.  They immediately retreated and now found themselves in a dilemma.

    ¡°Da da da¡­tweet, tut, tut, tut¡­¡±

    A string of bullets hit the gun made of blue bricks, making a harsh sound, followed by another crisp and dull sound of the 38-type rifle. Two more soldiers were hit to the end and lay on the ground.  They made a dull groan on the ground.

    "What a fool! It's still a grenade!"

    The monkey hiding aside shouted loudly, and soon seven or eight grenades were thrown out of the window.

    "Boom, boom, boom"

    With a burst of explosions and several screams, the gunfire outside became much quieter. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Monkey and the others took the opportunity to shoot violently outside with their Garand rifles and submachine guns.  For a time, the firepower of the Japanese army was suppressed.  But Liu Yi was not too happy in his heart. The dozen of them carried limited ammunition, and they could not suppress the Japanese with unlimited firepower and grenades. The Japanese would definitely attack again when their firepower weakened.

    Just when Liu Yi was at a loss what to do, Liu Yi discovered that the gunshots from the Japanese army outside were getting smaller and smaller. After fighting for a while, the gunshots even disappeared.

    "How is this going?"

    Liu Yi and the surrounding soldiers were stunned for more than ten minutes.  Liu Yi sent two soldiers out to check the situation. Within three minutes, the two soldiers came back and reported that all the Japanese troops outside had evacuated. This news directly puzzled Liu Yi and the others.

    In fact, Liu Yi and the others did not know that their sudden attack directly scared Shan Xie Zhenglong.  After being forcibly pulled to a safe place by the guards, Shanxie Masataka's mind started to work.  He believed that the attack just now showed that the Chinese had discovered his headquarters, and the attack just now was only done by their vanguard. If they did not move as soon as possible, the Chinese tanks might be the ones coming later.

    Thinking of this, Shan Xie Zhengtong didn't care about the small force that still occupied his command unit, and quickly ordered the headquarters garrison that was besieging them to escort him out of the city.  Soon, with the "active cooperation" of Shan Xie Zhenglong.  The garrison squadron that was originally besieging Liu Yi and the others immediately led Shan Xie Zhenglong through the north of the city and out of the city gate.

    Not to mention Liu Yi and the others who escaped, Shanxie Masataka withdrew from the county under the escort of guards and staff, and met with the 233rd Infantry Regiment that had been guarding here.  Report to Shan Xie Zhenglong immediately.

    Shan Xie Masataka, who had no time to take a breath, quickly asked: "Tominaga-kun, how is the situation here? Have you found any traces of the Chinese people?"

    Colonel Tominaga shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, the commander of the division, our place is very peaceful. The Chinese people seem to have forgotten our place. From last night to now, except for small groups of Chinese troops harassing us from time to time, there has been nothing."  Find any enemies!"

    Shan Xie Zhenglong sneered: "It's not like the Chinese people have forgotten you. This must be their conspiracy. This method of fighting is called "Wei Sanque Yi" in the Chinese people's art of war. They hope that we can escape from here so that we can escape from here.  They occupied the county seat without bloodshed, and then went out to pursue us. It's a pity that our imperial army is not the kind of rubbish soldiers that collapse at a moment's notice! Their plan is destined to fail. Pass my order and order 231 andThe 32nd Regiment abandoned its current position and retreated to the north and east of the city.  Waiting for the arrival of the 15th Division at noon tomorrow!  "

    "Hai!"

    Following Shan Xie Masataka's order, the 231st and 232nd Divisions, which had suffered more than half of their casualties and were struggling to support themselves, quickly abandoned their existing urban areas and positions and began to shrink their forces and strengthen their defenses to await the arrival of reinforcements.

    After occupying the urban areas and positions abandoned by the Japanese army, the Armored Division did not take advantage of the victory to pursue it. Instead, it stopped the offensive momentum and began to consolidate the existing places.  The war has reached this point.  Both sides, who were exhausted from the fight, understood that it was impossible to decide the outcome before dawn, and the outcome could only be decided until their reinforcements arrived.

    Time passed slowly while both parties were licking their wounds. When the first ray of sunlight hit the top of the mountain, it was already about seven o'clock in the morning.  At this time, the main force of the 400th Division, which was hurrying slowly, also arrived. Division Commander Wu Chengfeng immediately came to the headquarters to meet with Li Chenzhe.  After the two chatted for a while, Wu Chengfeng, who was eager to make up for his tardiness, pulled Li Chenzhe into the litigation county.

    The two of them came to Litigation County under the escort of dozens of guards. Looking at the rubble everywhere and the wailing and crying of the people who were injured in the war or whose homes were destroyed by the war, Li Chenzhe's face became very ugly.  , he cursed in a low voice: "Damn it, when this battle is over, at least half of Susong County will be destroyed!"

    "Yes, no matter how this battle goes, the people will always suffer. As soldiers, we feel guilty!" Seeing the ruins everywhere and the people injured in the war, Wu Chengfeng felt very uncomfortable.  He turned to a staff officer who was following behind him and said, "Counsel Chen, you immediately obey my order and ask the field hospital to send a group of doctors and nurses to treat the injured people."

    The staff officer surnamed Chen hesitated for a moment and then said: "Sir, the doctors and nurses are quite busy now. We fought all night last night and there were many injured soldiers. Should we wait until the battle is over before sending out more soldiers?"  Doctor come here."

    Wu Chengfeng's face slowly darkened, and he said to the staff member word by word: "The injured here are all our fellow villagers. They were injured in the war because of us, so I don't care how busy the hospital is now.  Go and convey my order immediately, do you hear me?"

    "Yes!" Seeing Wu Chengfeng's eyes that were about to burst into flames, the staff officer did not dare to say anything anymore and hurriedly trotted all the way to the rear.

    Li Chenzhe looked at Wu Chengfeng who looked ugly, patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Old Wu, calm down first. It's not your first day as a soldier, and it's not the first time you've seen such a scene. Why are you so excited?  Woolen cloth?"

    "I know." Wu Chengfeng also sighed, "But I feel guilty. You said that as soldiers, we are born to protect the land and have the responsibility, but now we have turned the homes where ordinary people live into this. Do you think I can  Aren¡¯t you excited?¡±

    Li Chenzhe also agreed: "It is indeed true that our soldiers have the responsibility to defend our country, but who made our country weak for a long time? But don't worry, it won't take long for us to drive all the Japanese out of our country. Not only that  , we also want to set foot on the Japanese archipelago as Chief Su said, and let those beasts taste the bitter wine they brewed!"

    Wu Chengfeng also laughed: "Okay, then we brothers will also be partners, and we will drive into the Japanese archipelago together!"

    "Hahahaha" The two of them laughed at the same time.

    While the two were laughing, a low roar came from the sky, and the two immediately stopped talking.  After listening for a while, they immediately recognized that the sound was coming from the south. Everyone looked up, but they could only hear the rumble of engines, but could not see any trace of the plane.

    "It's our plane!" Li Chenzhe's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and then he smiled: "It seems we don't have to worry about the Japanese 15th Division."

    The rumbling engine sound was not only heard by Li Chenzhe and others, but also by Shan Xie Zhenglong who had retreated to the north of the city. At first, the Japanese army thought that these Chinese air forces were coming to bomb them. The Japanese troops on the position were ordered by the officers.  Began to hide in a hurry.  But after waiting for a long time, no movement was seen, and soon the sounds disappeared into the sky.

    Shan Xie Masataka, who originally thought he had escaped a disaster, suddenly changed his face after thinking about it, and shouted loudly: "Baga, no, those Chinese planes are heading for the 15th Division!"

    Having said this, Shan Xie Zhengtong's face suddenly turned pale.  Immediately after, he shouted: "Quickly, send a report to the 15th Division immediately, asking them to stop advancing and pay attention to air defense, otherwise it will be too late!"

    "Hai!"

    Is the communications officer on the side coming?Before he could speak, he immediately ran towards the reporting office. He knew very well the word "late" that Shan Xie Masataka said
