Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 1032

Chapter 1032 A starless night! (It's the beginning of the month, please vote for me!)

This night in the mountains may have been the most painful night for Yota Into in his entire 40-year life.

Since entering the mountains in the afternoon, he has completely lost contact with the outside world.

He knows very well that in this continuous mountain, the communication that can keep in touch with the headquarters is actually of little use. The biggest role may be to have a heartbreaking confession with the headquarters. Therefore, it is difficult to carry those dozens of kilograms on his back. The strength of the field radio is not as good as carrying more food and ammunition.

Even, to show his determination, the Japanese Army Lieutenant Colonel directly shot and killed Major General Yamashita's most beloved big green horse and his own black horse.

It's not that he wants to hold a flag sacrifice, but that Yin Teng Youta uses this behavior to tell everyone in the **** squadron that he and the brigade commander will be with everyone, and no one will be special.

When it is strong, the army is hierarchical; when it is weak, it is officers and soldiers who work as one! Yota Yin Teng's approach is typical of the shameless series.

However, the more than 200 officers and soldiers of the loyal **** squadron really disliked the lieutenant colonel's way of expressing his feelings. Otherwise, they would not have rushed into various valleys or trails without hesitation despite knowingly committing suicide.

Yota Yinto, who used his subordinates to constantly die and meandered in the mountains, finally escaping 8 kilometers away from his main position before sunset, was actually not happy at all.

On the way to escape desperately, even though they were separated by mountains, the thunder-like loud noise could still be heard in the distance. This could only mean one thing. The Chinese went against the rules and launched a general attack on the main position near dusk.

Based on Yin Teng Youta's experience fighting the Four Troops in the past two days, what frightened him most was not that the Four Troops' heavy firepower was no less than that of the brigade, but that the opposing commander seemed to have everything under control without hesitation. battlefield rhythm.

Facts have also proved that except for the desperate counterattack ordered by the brigade commander personally at dawn, which made the Chinese a little embarrassed, the initiative on the battlefield was dominated by the Chinese at all other times.

They actually no longer held back and launched a general offensive directly. This can only mean that either something happened in the outside world that forced them to launch a general offensive in advance, or there was some problem within the brigade that caused them to get a glimpse of the fighter plane.

But no matter what, Yin Teng Youta knew that the brigade was finished!

The remaining 3,500 people are determined not to be able to withstand the attack of the Chinese army, which is several times more powerful than them, at all costs, no matter how brave and tenacious they are.

Because the group of Chinese on the opposite side are also from the southeast of Shanxi, no, they should be the elite among the hundreds of thousands of Chinese army elites in the entire North China.

I have to say that there is something special about Yin Teng Yota being able to become a lieutenant colonel-level officer at the age of 40 in the Japanese Army, which places special emphasis on qualifications.

At least, after two days of fighting, he still had a very clear definition of his opponent, unlike those officers who had been killed by the Four Lines Regiment. Even if they were defeated and died, they would still be stubborn and think that they died in Focus on the other party's machinations, not the strength of both parties.

Whether it's deception, deception, or head-on confrontation, it's all "wars are unpredictable, power is unpredictable, and water is unpredictable." Who has stipulated that war is about arranging chariots, horses and artillery, and if you give me a shot, I will return a knife to you?

What's more, the Fourth Army Regiment and the 683rd Brigade, which launched the final siege and annihilation attack on the Second Mixed Brigade, were simply crushed by force?

Perhaps, many Japanese soldiers in North China have underestimated the bravery of Chinese soldiers, including Lieutenant Colonel Yin Teng Yota, chief of staff of the 2nd Mixed Brigade, who is now a lost dog.

If the 2nd Mixed Brigade had not fought a fierce battle with two infantry divisions in the mountains and had not lost its vitality, it would never have ended up in this situation. This was Yin Teng Yota's self-comfort in times of despair.

But he was wrong. If he had the chance to stand on the battlefield, he would know why Major Yoshio Yoriya committed suicide in despair.

The strength of the Chinese people does not come from their large number of people, but from their fearlessness!

Set the clock back to dusk.

Since the Fourth Army Regiment and the 683rd Brigade all artillery large and small began bombardment at all costs, the message requesting to launch a general offensive has been sent to the boss of the Southeast Shanxi Theater Command, and ten minutes later I finally received the 'accurate! 'After the word, Brigadier Cheng, who was the supreme commander of the Changle Village battlefield at the time, said this in a message sent to the Fourth Line Regiment and his regiments: "Order, the 22nd Group Army Four Lines Regiment, 921th, Changle Village Frontline Headquarters The division's 772nd Regiment, 771st Regiment, supplementary regiment, and 683rd Brigade Guard Battalion conducted a general offensive across the entire front.

In this battle, no reserve team will be left; in this battle, there will be no enemy but me, and I will be invincible; in this battle, everyone below me, no matter brigade commander, regiment commander, or battalion commander, who is afraid of the battle and cannot go before, will be killed; whoever is unfavorable in attacking the fort will be killed. ;Those who disobey military orders and loot supplies will be killed! "

The military order, later known as the "Three Kill Order", was an extremely rare tough statement by the cheerful Brigadier Cheng in his decades of military career. It also shows the confidence of the Chinese soldiers in Changle Village at this time in annihilating the Second Mixed Brigade. and determination.

In fact, the Japanese army was not as miserable as the final result. In fact, at least hundreds of Japanese troops still defended the honor of "Asia's strongest army".

For example, the 772nd Regiment was awarded the first merit after the war. The Japanese army on the defense line in front of them did not completely collapse without much fighting like other units of the Japanese army.

The Japanese army needs to cross the river when attacking the Zhuozhang River defense line. On the contrary, if the 772 regiment wants to kill the Japanese army 900 meters away from the Zhuozhang River, it also needs to cross the river.

But fortunately, the artillery assembled by the 772 Regiment was powerful enough. Not only did all the mortars in the regiment focus fire, but the four mountain cannons belonging to the brigade headquarters were basically transferred to them for use. In addition, Wang Xiaoqiang requested a mountain artillery platoon from the Si Xing Regiment through personal connections. Provide fire support to its front.

When the Japanese troops who were stunned by the artillery fire climbed up tremblingly from the trenches, they were faced with the black Chinese army.

That was three infantry battalions and the guard company of the 772nd Regiment. Although it was not full, the pressure of nearly 2,000 people was enough to make people frightened, not to mention the Japanese soldiers who had just been knocked unconscious by crazy artillery fire. ?

It can only be said that this group of Japanese invaders belonging to the First Infantry Brigade of the Second Mixed Brigade are very tough. Although their confidence has been defeated by 'rumors' to less than a quarter of the previous one, and even their own infantry battalion captain is not here. Unable to contact the brigade headquarters a thousand meters away, they still fulfilled their duty as soldiers and shot at the Chinese army that was approaching 400 meters away on a 1,800-meter-wide defense line.

In a burst of sparse gunfire, more than 30 Chinese soldiers fell, stopping the 2,000 men of the 772nd Regiment who were slowly approaching.

It was not that the 772 Regiment was afraid of death, but the intensity of the Japanese resistance was somewhat beyond the expectations of the commanders at all levels of the 772 Regiment.

There are at least seven or eight hundred Japanese troops in front of them. According to the Japanese army's light and heavy firepower mix, they should not only have this few heavy machine guns and light machine guns.

Although Wang Xiaoqiang may look a little rough on the surface, he is actually extremely flexible in mind and extremely changeable in tactics. He immediately felt keenly that the Japanese army was either playing tricks or was really being attacked by the 8 mountain cannons and more than a dozen mortars assembled by his own side. The cannon was beaten to death.

The two infantry battalions on both sides began to move toward the wings. The middle battalion tentatively started an attack under the cover of four heavy machine guns on each side.

Until the first battalion advanced to a distance of only 150 meters from the Japanese position, there was no trace of the Japanese heavy machine gun firepower.

The weapons that the Japanese army could bring out at this time, except for three heavy machine guns that were suppressed by 8 heavy machine guns and had to be moved around, were just a few grenade launchers and not as many rifles as they imagined, firing in vain.

Seeing that the Japanese army has been firing like this "to the point of death", they have advanced to a distance where they can charge to the death. They can neither see any strong firepower nor show the strength that an infantry brigade should have, even if they have just Beaten by a round of artillery fire.

But there were 800 Japanese troops! It's impossible for them all to be killed by artillery shells! This is almost a fairy tale for everyone.

But the fact is that there were only less than 250 Japanese troops in the unit at that time. The main reason was that an infantry squadron of the Japanese army in the unit was transferred away in the morning. After the troop strength was reduced sharply, the ferocity of Chinese artillery fire made it difficult for the Japanese army to fight in trenches with a depth of less than 1.5 meters. More than half of the more than 500 Japanese troops were lost in the battle.

The infantry battalion commander of the 1st Battalion of the 772nd Regiment was Battalion Commander Xiao Ding, whom Tang Dao wanted to poach. Seeing that his three main infantry companies had already entered within 120 meters, the slowest one only needed fifteen seconds. The entire army rushed into the Japanese trenches.

This was the first battalion-level officer after the death of Commander Ji Ye of the 772 Regiment in the past time and space. He looked like a white-faced scholar, but he was actually a super macho man.

When it came up, it was so fierce that Wang Xiaoqiang couldn't help wiping his sweat.

"You idiot, no matter what tricks you are playing, I will fight with your idiot today." Battalion Commander Xiao Ding, who was gritting his molars, put the shell gun he was holding tightly into the hands of the orderly who was following closely. As soon as he stuffed it, he snatched a Type 38 rifle from his hand that had already been fixed with a bayonet, and shouted sternly: "Everyone has it, fix the bayonet, and follow me. The whole battalion will advance or retreat. The first row is 40 meters away." Throw the grenades on me, bugler, blow the charge horn!"

As the charge horn sounded, "Kill!" the infantry major roared, taking the lead to rush toward the Japanese position with a bow and a gun. Behind him, an infantry battalion of 400 infantrymen rushed toward the Japanese position in front of a nearly 1,300-meter-wide Japanese position. The position launched a desperate charge. No longer worried or hesitant, under the leadership of their supreme commander, they ran wildly towards the unpredictable Japanese army position, and at the same time, worked hard to shoot the loaded bullets in the barrel.

Wang Xiaoqiang, who was 450 meters away, probably did not expect that the commander of his 1st Battalion would be so resolute. He entered a desperate charge without even making a tentative attack. His face suddenly tightened, and he immediately ordered the heavy machine guns on both sides to use full firepower to suppress the Japanese trenches. , and at the same time ordered the infantry moving on both wings to speed up.

This is a very safe attack method. In case the Japanese army plays tricks, the two infantry battalions on both sides can contain part of its firepower, so that the infantry battalion that rushes into charge will not be completely annihilated.

With this military order alone, Wang Xiaoqiang is by no means the kind of 'crazy general' who seems easy to get upset on the surface. His brain is better than many people's.

The Japanese troops in the trenches also entered their final frenzy under the pressure of the heavy footsteps of the Chinese infantry from far to near.

Although the heavy machine gun bullets fired from the opposite direction caused the trenches to billow with smoke, many people still shot desperately at the infantrymen of the 1st Battalion of the 772nd Regiment who were running towards them. resounded across the battlefield.

In just seven or eight seconds, at least forty soldiers fell to the ground while running along the entire charge line. Some were writhing in pain, while others were silent and no longer heard.

However, no one stopped charging.

Again, the so-called comrade-in-arms, in addition to being someone who can make you trust your back to him, is that when he falls, you don't have to stare at him with tears and sadness, but you throw yourself forward towards him. Direction, along the road he has not yet completed, forward, forward.

Ten seconds later, an infantry company of nearly 100 soldiers in the first echelon charged to a position 40 to 50 meters away from the Japanese trenches. Everyone took out the long wooden handle grenades hanging on their bodies and opened the back cover. , pulled the fuse, and with the power of running, threw it towards the Japanese trenches dozens of meters away.

There is no need to be precise or inaccurate. Whether it falls on the front of the trench or inside the trench, the smoke and shrapnel can provide cover for the charging soldiers. More than a hundred grenades exploded, filling the Japanese trenches and in front of the trenches with smoke. Those outside could not see the inside, and those inside could not see the outside. The gunfire of 38 guns could hardly be heard anymore.

In fact, when this infantry company reached a distance of 40 meters in front of the Japanese trenches, it basically declared the demise of the last remaining Japanese troops on this position.

Because each of these infantrymen carried at least 3 grenades, that is, more than 300 grenades, which means that on average, a grenade will fall every four or five meters on a defense line that is no more than 1,000 meters wide, even if only 10% of them fall. The trenches were also something that terrified the Japanese troops in the trenches.

By the time the first row of soldiers finished throwing the grenades, there was almost no gap. The second row of soldiers had already rushed in, holding rifles with bayonets fixed. They no longer crouched, but stood up straight, charged, and used Running as fast as he could in his life, he rushed towards the Japanese position.

There was no cry of killing that resounded throughout the battlefield, because all the Chinese soldiers poured their strength into their legs, held their breath, opened their eyes angrily, and ran as hard as they could.

At this moment, speed is life.

At the moment when the first battalion broke out with an all-out charge, all fire suppression stopped. Hundreds of meters away, from the colonel commander to the ordinary private, and more than a thousand meters away, from the major general brigade commander to the cook, no matter what they looked at, Whether they could see clearly or not, countless Chinese soldiers had their eyes fixed on this battlefield full of gunpowder smoke.

Everyone's heart almost stopped beating. I am nervous, excited, and extremely anxious and worried. It is such a complex emotion that many people may have never experienced in their lives.

As long as they rush through these 40 meters, as long as these two hundred people jump into the Japanese trenches within five seconds, the Japanese army will be finished, no matter how many people they have left.

However, the officers and soldiers of the 772nd Regiment who have had many encounters with the Japanese army know better that the Japanese army is fierce, and in hand-to-hand combat with them, even elites like them can only win 50-50.

The officers and soldiers who crossed the first row to throw grenades, led by the major battalion commander, passed through the gunpowder smoke and arrived at the Japanese trenches. With the awareness of death, they firmly grasped the 38 rifles, and at the same time, they mustered up their strength and tried to burst out the most powerful roar in their lives: "kill!"

However, what greeted them was not the once ferocious Japanese invaders, but Japanese troops with less than 200 troops, dark faces and somewhat dull expressions.

Chinese soldiers are on the trenches, and Japanese soldiers are in the trenches, looking at each other.

The Japanese soldiers' eyes no longer showed arrogance, but deep despair.

“Kill them all!” the major battalion commander shouted with a hint of joy in his eyes. Pull the trigger and shoot at the Japanese soldiers.

"Bang bang" The Chinese soldiers did not hesitate for more than a second before collectively pulling the triggers in their hands.

The desperate Japanese troops were also firing.

Both sides used the same single-shot rifle, and the crisp sound of gunfire echoed through the wilderness.

On and in the trenches, dark blue and khaki colors fell to the ground.

However, no one gave in, even if there was no shelter, even if they knew that they might die at any time in the next moment. The Chinese and Japanese soldiers looked at each other with stern eyes, and they did not hesitate to pull the trigger and shoot.

When two armies face each other, the brave one wins.

The Chinese soldiers who had empty bullets in their magazines and had red eyes raised their bayonets high and followed their major and battalion commander to plunge down into the trenches. The bayonets and meat were "pop-pop-pop" and the "creeping" teeth-searing bayonet and The sound of bones touching even overshadowed the sound of gunshots at that moment, and at the same time sounded the final death knell for the remnants of the 2nd Mixed Brigade.

As more and more Chinese soldiers jumped into the trenches, the resistance of the Japanese army became weaker and weaker, until the last desperate howl was turned into an inaudible moan by the bayonets of three 38 rifles in the trenches. All Japanese troops on the defensive line were wiped out.

On the battlefield, there was a sudden silence, a terrifying silence, except for the heavy breathing that was unique to males and filled the air.

The life-and-death struggle lasted only a minute or two, but it depleted most of the soldiers' physical strength. Many of them were paralyzed the moment they inserted their bayonets into the chests of the Japanese invaders.

"We won." The battalion commander, a major who was covered in blood, looked around at the trenches filled with khaki and dark blue, and murmured to himself with tears rolling down.

Then, he jumped out of the trench and raised the rifle in his hand, "We won."

“We won, we won.”

“Mom, we won.”

“Brother, I have avenged you.”

One soldier after another climbed out of the trenches and stood on the edge of the Japanese trenches they captured. Like their battalion commander, they raised their rifles high and roared to the sky.

They used all their strength, even if their brains were dizzy due to lack of oxygen.

“Victory!”

The Chinese soldiers hundreds of meters away also raised their rifles high and cheered together with their colleagues on the Japanese position. Including their colonel commander and major general brigade commander, they all pulled off their military discipline buttons and cheered loudly with all their strength: "We are victorious!"

At least two thousand people made the same move, with spears like a forest and roars like waves.

The Japanese invaders, who were still resisting ten thousand meters away, were alarmed by the roar coming from the distance. Seeing the Chinese standing with their guns raised high on the position that originally belonged to the First Infantry Brigade, their psychology completely collapsed.

At the cost of nearly 110 people being killed and more than 70 people seriously injured, the 772 Regiment gnawed away the hardest bone in one fell swoop, completely shattering the confidence of the remaining Japanese invaders and triggering a rout of the Japanese army on the entire battlefield.

That first achievement was not just because Wang Xiaoqiang and Xia Jiba killed Yamashita with a cannon, but the main reason was this battle.

With Battalion Commander Xiao Ding taking the lead in breaking into the Japanese trenches, the First Battalion was awarded the title of "Hard-Bone Battalion" by the Eightyth Army Headquarters after the war, and was even recognized by the Second Theater. This was an unprecedented phenomenon.

In fact, the great military exploits of killing this unfortunate boy from the Second Mixed Brigade put a golden nugget on the face of the old Shanxi man. Even the boss frowned when he saw the old man in Shanxi and felt sick thinking about the Eightyth Army. , and had to send a congratulatory message to the Second Theater Headquarters overnight, and sent a bunch of medals to all participating troops.

This is a starless night, and everything should be silent.

However, this mountain that should be calm is like Yin Teng Youta's mood, unable to settle down.

Because there are a lot more mice and more mouse catchers.

The rat wants to live, the rat catcher wants to get rid of the harm!

The mice originally thought that night would become their protective color and would be their last chance.

But the mouse underestimated the difficulty of the mountain.

In such a pitch-black forest, not to mention at night, even during the day, you have to be careful not to get injured by the hard branches, and you have to be careful not to miss the mark and fall.

What's more, the Japanese army didn't dare to do any lighting at all. Apart from the woods and rocky cliffs, there were more Chinese people here. Any light might become a living target.

To run away without making any sound in the dark, unless you have a pair of night owl eyes.

But apparently, the mice didn't.

The Chinese soldiers who were on the mountain and those who were pursuing from the rear also did not dare to sleep easily. When they heard any movement in the dark, they fired a bunch of bullets or even fired flares.

From time to time, machine guns spitting flames would draw out a dark red streak in the mountains, and screams and cries of pain would often resound through the mountains and fields.

However, for the Chinese and Japanese soldiers who are eager to escape and hope to harvest their lives, they know very well that this level of killing is just an appetizer and dessert. After tonight, tomorrow day will be the real feast.

A feast filled with death!
