Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 1327

However, when Lin Mu Qingyuan raised the knife and was about to strike it down, he once again looked into Lin Peng's eyes that had once mocked him.

The Chinese soldiers who have died in battle have military ranks on their collar badges, but they are just non-commissioned officers. Compared with their military ranks, they are several ranks behind him.

But he won completely, whether he was alive or after death.

Although I saw through his last wish after his death, so what, he and more than 500 imperial officers and soldiers were buried with him, just like the exchange ratio he said. If this continues, the Yamato nation will completely fall into the abyss.

The outcome of the Zhaojiazhuang battlefield and even the entire southern Hebei battlefield is actually not that important. The war launched by the empire is like being stuck in a quagmire, with a dilemma.

At this thought, Lin Mu Qingyuan lost all hope, but that knife could no longer cut through.

“Listen to the Japs inside, as long as you surrender and tell me where my brothers are, I can accept your surrender!” Li Jijin's deep and solemn voice sounded outside the one-person-high fortification that had just been rebuilt with sandbags and loess.

The 7th Company, which had occupied almost all areas of Zhaojiazhuang through fighting, found the remains of almost all the sacrificed officers and soldiers, except for Lin Peng's. This gave Li Jijin and the officers and soldiers of the 7th Company a glimmer of hope.

As long as Lin Peng is still alive, even if he is seriously injured and captured, Li Jijin is willing to let go of all the Japanese troops in this small courtyard that has been re-reinforced at first sight.

Lin Mu Qingyuan's eyes were full of bitterness. An hour ago he was here to surrender to the most stubborn Chinese resister, but now it was him. Is this the reincarnation and cause and effect in the Chinese legend?

"You can refuse, but I will cut off the heads of all the Japanese soldiers who captured this village and died here. They will be built into the capital. The ancestors of the Li family are on top. I, Li Jijin, swear here that I will kill all the Japanese soldiers who died here." Li Jijin will not kneel down before his eyes and beg for the Japanese's head, whether he is alive or dead." Seeing that his hope was almost completely shattered, Li Jijin, his eyes red, roared and made a strong oath.

Lin Mu Qingyuan trembled violently!

He heard the deep-seated hatred and the eagerness of the Chinese officer who was at least the same level as him. He knew that there was still hope for the other side, so he was willing to accept prisoners.

Lin Muqingyuan, who had already begun to have a death wish, wanted to reply loudly to the Chinese commander who had made a solemn oath. His elite soldiers had died in this battle. That man's heart must be extremely painful and he would definitely kill himself.

But when he turned his eyes to his last three subordinates who were pale and trembling, he sighed slightly and swallowed back the words that had reached his lips.

He can die, but he cannot prevent the souls of those imperial officers and soldiers who died heroically for the empire from finding their hometown because of himself.

"You have done your duty as a soldier, surrender! Tell them what I have discovered. If they are real soldiers, they will not break their promises. If you have the opportunity, help me tell my wife that her At the last moment of her husband's life, all he could think of was the way she looked back under the cherry blossom tree!" Lin Mu Qingyuan waved to his three subordinates.

It is both a command and a farewell!

As the three Japanese soldiers threw out their rifles and followed the requirements of the Chinese soldiers, they knelt on the ground with their heads in their hands, and there was a gunshot.

Lin Mu Qingyuan fell next to Lin Peng's body.

Two Chinese and Japanese soldiers who fought in this small courtyard eventually died in a courtyard.

Li Jijin, who strode into the yard, looked at Lin Peng's already cold body, his red eyes couldn't help but shed tears after all.

"Lieutenant Lin Mu said that there are still people from your country hiding in the ruins. Otherwise, the warrior from your country would not have given a hint before his death." A trembling Japanese superior soldier had obviously smelled the breath of death. , and quickly reported in Chinese with a weird accent.

Otherwise, he was afraid that he would never have a chance to speak again.

"dig for me!" Li Jijin picked up Lin Peng's body, which seemed to be weighing only dozens of kilograms. He looked at the hanging stiff and still stretched fingers, his eyes turned red again, and gently placed him there for 7 consecutive seconds. The officers and soldiers pushed a cart over and gave the order without looking back.

The surrounding officers and soldiers dared to be lazy and did not care that the battle was not over yet. This place would soon become the headquarters of the regimental commander. Dozens of people were waving individual engineer shovels and going into excavation.

More than 600 Japanese troops in the hilly areas were blown to pieces by the 150-caliber heavy force that arrived. When nearly a thousand commanders and fighters of the 80th Army were already attacking the last line of defense of the remaining Japanese troops from four directions, dozens of officers and soldiers of the 7th Company had already smashed the debris on the ruins. Empty the dirt and tiles.

The only tunnel entrance in the room was also found. An anxious squad leader just put his head in to shout, when a kitchen knife came out and almost hit his nose. In the end, the squad leader who went to support from Zhaojiazhuang reported his name and said After naming the entire class of officers and soldiers, Zhao Xiaoni crawled out of the dark tunnel.

Glancing at the Chinese soldiers with surprised faces around them, Zhao Xiaoni turned her attention to the courtyard, but there was no remains of Lin Peng there. Is Brother Lin not dead?

But soon, Zhao Xiaoni's newly aroused hope completely dissipated in the gloomy eyes of the Chinese soldiers.

Zhao Xiaoni fainted and fell to the ground!

The sadness of losing her lover and comrade-in-arms and the fear of listening to the constant excavations from above in the tunnel have already broken the defenses of this girl who has just joined the militia platoon less than two months ago. She can survive until now only because of Lin Lin. Peng Lin's request before his death was that she should live well so that she could tell him what her future motherland would look like.

Therefore, even if she wanted to take away a Japanese soldier before she died, Zhao Xiaoni did not use her last bullet. She could only keep that bullet for herself.

Many years later, Lincheng County, which borders Xingtai to the south and Shimen to the north, has developed into a large industrial county in the wave of reform and development because of its rich mineral resources and special policy support. Large tracts of farmland were bulldozed into various factories, and the villagers also They all moved into residential buildings planned by the city.

But what makes various businessmen who bring funds to invest extremely strange is that no matter how they lobby the county and city governments, Zhaojiazhuang and its surrounding land remain unchanged.

In the village, there is a monument that is not high, and next to the village there is a martyrs' grave where 66 people are buried together!

Because it was already July and the weather was hot, all the Chinese officers and soldiers who died in the Plains Battle that shocked the entire North China battlefield were buried on the spot, but only 66 were buried near Zhaojiazhuang.

Every time during the Qingming Festival, the people of Zhaojiazhuang will go out to sweep the tombs of all nearby martyrs!

There was an old woman in the village. After she retired from her job in the provincial capital, she had been living alone in the village. Every time the sun went down, she would go to the restored tomb of the martyrs and sit in front of it.

“Brother Lin, I listen to you. I followed Company Commander Li and Commander Tang to Hunan Province, Yunnan Province, and even went abroad. Our China is really big and beautiful.

In order to build our motherland, after the victory of the war, I went to medical university and became a pediatrician. I like children very much. Although I have never had one, I have never regretted it.

I am very good now. The country has given me a retirement salary. Even if I have no children, I will not be cold or hungry. I can still walk around and see my old comrades all over the country. Our China is getting better and better. ."

An old woman who is turning 80 but wears a washed green military uniform all year round is sitting in the sunset, muttering about some of the things she has seen in various places, just like an old friend sitting across from her.

The tombstone is silent, but Lin Peng's name, which is painted in gold twice a year, shines in the sunset.

It's like, smile!

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the main force of the enemy's four regiments arrived at the Zhaojiazhuang battlefield overnight and used large-caliber mortars to bombard our troops. The imperial officers and soldiers relied on temporary field trenches to withstand no resistance. The elites have been exhausted by the enemy's artillery fire. There were less than 300 people left, but the attacking enemy troops numbered more than a thousand.

Numata Tazo has no choice but to die to serve the Empire and His Majesty the Emperor. This is how we say goodbye! "

Before the gray tide surged into the position, Colonel Tazō Numata, the supreme commander of the Zhaojiazhuang front line of the 10th Division, sent a jade-breaking farewell message to the Eighth Brigade.

At that time, it was only an hour and a half since Tang Dao personally led the main force to arrive at Zhaojiazhuang. More than 1,700 Japanese troops were wiped out in the crazy artillery fire and tidal wave of attacks.

The number of prisoners of war, including the three who survived in Zhaojiazhuang, did not exceed ten fingers.

"Baga! Is the Four Elements Regiment crazy? A mere infantry regiment wants to fight our division on the plains? Who gave them such courage?" Yoshio Shinozuka, who was far away in Handan, held the eighth The farewell message sent by Colonel Numata Tazō forwarded by the brigade headquarters almost made him spit out a mouthful of blood.

It's not that the Chinese have never fought large-scale battles with imperial divisions in the plains, but it was a battle, and both sides invested hundreds of thousands of troops.

This kind of incident where an infantry regiment and a division were dueled is not unique. Didn't the Sixings Regiment fight against the 21st Division at Niangziguan? But at least the Four Elements Group still has the danger of Taihang Mountain to rely on.

But now, has the Four Lines Group expanded to this point? On the undefeated plains, they had to face off against a Class A division from the Empire. Even after the 10th Division suffered consecutive losses, its strength was only two-thirds of its heyday.

If Yoshio Shinozuka knew that the Four Elements Group at this time was only two-thirds of its peak strength, would he vomit blood even more?

This is too much to not use the bean bag of the permanent division of the Empire of Japan as solid food!

Of course, it was precisely based on this kind of logical thinking that Yoshio Shinozuka would never have thought that Tang Dao would do such an amazing job. As soon as he received the news of the battle at Zhaojiazhuang, he decisively tried his best to help, which led to his hanging. The hunters who had tried their best to deploy in Xingtai and other places had not even arrived on the battlefield, and more than 1,700 people who had been used as bait were all eaten up.

To put it bluntly, this guy was just fishing for fun, but he thought he was just catching a big herring, but he didn't know that a great white shark actually came, ate the bait in one bite, broke the line, and even dragged the fisherman to in water.

You caught the wrong fish. This is actually Tang Dao's letter of challenge to Yoshio Shinozuka at the expense of the lives of more than 1,700 Japanese infantrymen.

“Now that you're here, don't leave!” Yoshio Shinozuka had a cold expression on his face as he tore the farewell message from his regiment commander into pieces.

"Order the 8th Infantry Brigade to attack with the entire army to hold off the opponent! I will personally lead the 10th Infantry Regiment, the 10th Artillery Regiment, the 10th Engineer Regiment and the 1st and 2nd Tank Squadrons. In this battle, the Empire must Win!”

Yoshio Shinozuka spent a lot of money this time. The entire 4 infantry regiments of the 10th Division and the 63rd Infantry Regiment were beaten to a **** head in the Battle of Panzhai in May. Not long after they were replenished, they were again in the 63rd Infantry Regiment. From mid-month to mid-July, nearly half of the troops were lost during the "Operation Clearing the Countryside". They were considered to have lost their combat effectiveness and could basically only be used to defend the city.

The other three infantry regiments also lost nearly a thousand men each. The supplementary baggage troops were not even familiar with the infantry regiments, so this time the entire army was dispatched.

If you put aside the 1,400 infantrymen that have been lost, Shinozuka Yoshio sent a total of 7 infantry brigades this time, which is basically the last infantry of the 10th Division.

Coupled with the 2,800 men of the artillery regiment, 700 men of the engineering regiment, and two armored squadrons with a total of 28 tanks, the 10th Division can be considered to be doing its best.

Of course, Yoshio Shinozuka is not stupid. In order to prevent the recurrence of the Battle of Panzhai where he mobilized all his troops but had his house stolen over there, he ordered the division's infantry, cavalry, artillery and other regular troops to dispatch. At that time, some of the baggage troops were also left behind, and the infantry battalions of the county security forces were strictly ordered to guard the city.

A security army infantry regiment in Handan City set out with the 10th Division regiment headquarters. It was Yoshio Shinozuka who was prepared to be used as cannon fodder when necessary.

As for the security of Handan City, it is naturally left to the infantry infantry brigade of the immobile Big Bear Konosuke. Although the 4th Division is known as the "Injury-Free Division", 7,000 soldiers are more than enough to defend a small city.

The main force of the Fourth Army Group and the Eightyth Group Army must have been gathering towards Lincheng County. If Handan City can still be lost under such circumstances, there is only one reason for Daxiong Xingzhi to surrender to the enemy.

From a tactical perspective, Yoshio Shinozuka actually did not have much hope for the 4th Division, he just wanted it to be a "resident beast" at home.

But unfortunately, Shinozuka Yoshio really underestimated the lethality of the "Innocuous Division". The Osaka vendors before the Battle of Nomonkan in space and time did not even pay much attention to the orders of the Kwantung Army Commander. Who is the Lieutenant General Commander of the 10th Division?

Defending the city within the city is of course no problem. We can also continue to collect antiques and curios in the ancient Chinese city. The collection will be a huge wealth after the war.

But you want me to go out of the city to eliminate the Chinese, and they are still a group of civilians. That is definitely not something a true imperial soldier can do.

This kind of thinking does not come from the low-level officers and soldiers of the "Innocuous Division", but from the commander of the Big Bear Brigade who led them to "make a fortune".

Since the Chinese New Year, the 4th Division has begun to issue wartime allowances to the entire division. Even the lowest-level Japanese privates can receive a monthly allowance of 2 yen, and second lieutenant-level officers can receive tens of yen, not to mention Those superior officers and generals.

This money was not allocated by the imperial finance, but was obtained by the generals and officers of the 4th Division by taking advantage of the price difference in the occupied areas.

"It's just stupid to fish by plundering the dry swamp. What we want to establish is a fair order and trading environment. Only in this way can the Chinese in the occupied areas be willing to become subjects of the empire!" has become the 4th Division A mantra often spoken by generals.

The obvious attitude of confronting Duo Tianjun made Duo Tianjun very angry, but the attitude of the senior officials of the 4th Division was very obvious. At the worst, they would drive me back to the empire, and then we would go and fight the imperial warriors who were still fighting in the Chinese theater. Our ladies go to make deals.

Duo Tianjun was defeated by the knives of the "Wu Shang Division". It was not that he was unable to drive them away, but he was afraid that the morale of the entire China Expeditionary Army would be unstable because he drove away the knives.

It's really "negotiating a deal with the ladies" that makes people think a lot. Who doesn't want to have a warm bed in the winter, right? The heat in a strong man is much more powerful than a warm baby.

Major General Konosuke Daokuma has received a sufficient amount of 'penicillin' from Mr. Shen who kept his promise. At least half of the allowances distributed to the entire division come from this magical drug, a bottle of which can be worth ten taels of gold on the black market. drug.

'It's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's difficult to go from luxury to frugality'. The big bear Yukinosuke who knows the taste of food has not been able to get medicine for a month. The big bear fortunately wanted to offer weapons and equipment in exchange.

The young man sent by Mr. Shen to contact him secretly did not take the initiative to contact him until the third day after Daxiong Yunsuke arrived in Handan City, and exchanged the words "passive and sabotage" for another half-year's supply of medicine.

What's this? It's not like he was asked to do anything to disgrace the empire, not to mention that this was what the 4th Division wanted.

Okuma Konosuke originally wanted to carry out the spirit of "fair trade" in Handan City without any worries until the end of the world, and the 10th Division loved it to death.

However, as the main force of Yoshio Shinozuka has not yet arrived in Lincheng, more than 4,000 officers and soldiers of the 683rd Brigade and 772nd Regiment suddenly appeared at the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain, less than 40 kilometers away from Handan City. Information arrived, and the dream of Lucky Bear lying down was shattered. .

In order to prevent the main force of the Eightyth Army from approaching the Zhaojiazhuang battlefield, which was already in full swing, Yoshio Shinozuka strictly ordered Daekuma Yukinosuke to send troops to eliminate the unit or block it in Handan.

Okuma Konosuke could only send out troops while cursing!

Although Okuma Konosuke is a bad guy who doesn't know how to do anything, he is still good as an army general. He left about 2,000 people to defend the city, 4 infantry brigades and 5,000 artillery, engineers, and baggage troops. That was also An existence that can compete with a Chinese infantry division.

Yoshio Shinozuka, who was still on the way, breathed a sigh of relief.

At this tone, he really gave up too early! (End of chapter)
