Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 298

Chapter 298: Respect means killing you (on the first day of August, please give me a guaranteed monthly ticket!)

The Battle of Cangcheng once again ended temporarily with an ending that Kunizaki found hard to accept but had to accept.

Going to the front line of Kunisaki, he couldn't see how many corpses of his own personnel were inside and outside Cangcheng, but he could see how many people were left in his two infantry brigades.

That is much worse than the 114th Division, which suffered continuous attacks yesterday and was finally forced to repair.

A major-level battalion leader who led the team to carry out the "Long Live Charge" has not returned. In fact, it will be of no use when he comes back, because his infantry battalion only has half a heavy machine gun squadron and an infantry artillery squad left. As for the infantry, plus Those who were sent to the field hospital were left lying there. It was doubtful whether they could gather together an infantry squadron.

The other infantry brigade was not much better. The full strength of 1,000 men was reduced to less than 400 men and a devastated army major who knelt in front of him to plead guilty.

Looking at the miserable scene in front of him, even if he was as proud as Kunizaki, he had to admit that it was not that his subordinates did not do a good enough job, but that the iron nail of the Chinese was too hard, so hard that he struggled to swing the iron nail. The hammer was punctured.

Admitting one's failure is an extremely difficult thing for the Japanese major general who once made great progress on the battlefield in North China. Most of the time, he would rather drive his subordinates to continue to die than bear the consequences of being better than himself. The humiliation of failure in front of a weak opponent.

But at this time, Kunizaki was stunned, but he did it.

After careful consideration, Kunizaki personally sent a call to the headquarters of the Tenth Army and the 114th Division, admitting his defeat in front of the Cangcheng position, and hoping not to attack Cangcheng until the heavy artillery brigade arrived.

Yanagawa Heisuke probably did not expect that the Kunisaki detachment would suffer nearly 2,000 casualties in just a few hours of fighting, and it was only a battle outside Matsue City.

If we say that Kunozaki and his Kunozaki detachment are idiots, then how stupid must the Chinese army on the North China battlefield be? That's obviously not very scientific either.

Even Suematsu Shigeharu, who was going to watch the joke, didn't look very good at the moment. Although he desperately hoped that Kunizaki Zheng would stumble in front of the Chinese, but Kunizaki Zheng fell so hard that he hit his head. Breaking the blood flow was beyond his original intention.

It's not that he feels sorry for the stupid general, but the harder Kunizaki falls, it can only prove one thing, the more difficult it is for the Chinese to deal with him.

And he is about to face the difficult Chinese.

How could it be possible to conquer the main city of Songjiang without his 114th Division as a forward army? Facing such a difficult enemy, just thinking about it makes my head hurt.

As the commander of the Tenth Army, Yanagawa Heisuke is obviously not someone who changes orders from day to day. He will not easily change his strategic philosophy, and prefers that the Kunisaki detachment continue to attack regardless of casualties.

In the view of this battle-hardened Japanese Army Lieutenant General, the Chinese in Cangcheng were killed with a fierce move that made Kunisaki lose his determination to defeat them, but this move also made the Chinese defenders of Cangcheng a powerful enemy. , perhaps it can be easily solved with only one infantry squadron instead of an infantry brigade.

However, Yanagawa Heisuke is only a commander, but not a division commander who can directly control tens of thousands of troops. In a sense, his real power is not as good as that of a division commander.

Therefore, he had to consider the thoughts of Seishiro Itagaki who was far away in North China. The popular man who was now the headquarters of the North China Expeditionary Army. If he ordered the Kunisaki detachment to return to build the fifth division sooner or later and suffer heavy casualties, It would be strange if Itagaki Seishiro didn't hate him to the core.

This **** intricate relationship, out of balance, no matter how helpless Yanagawa Heisuke was, he could only hold his nose and agree to Kunisaki's request.

As for Suematsu Shigeharu, he even sent a telegram agreeing to suspend the war to the headquarters long ago, and everything was subject to Yanagawa Heisuke, the commander of the Tenth Army.

Having a backer makes things easier!

Kunizaki, who was afraid that the headquarters would order him to attack again, breathed a sigh of relief.

However, although there are no more battles and no more losses of soldiers, the Japanese Army Major General hates the Chinese defenders who still exist in Cangcheng.

He would definitely not tolerate it if they were allowed to escape before the heavy artillery brigade arrived.

Therefore, Kunizaki invested an infantry squadron and half a heavy machine gun squadron on each side of Cangcheng. As long as the Chinese dared to leave the extremely dilapidated position, the rain of bullets sprayed by up to 6 heavy machine guns would leave them all behind. On the way to escape without much cover.

When the heavy artillery brigade arrives, multiple heavy artillery with a caliber of more than 200 can completely smash Cangcheng. Whether they are hiding on the ground or underground, whether they are fortifications or human bodies, they will all be blown into powder.

The Battle of Cangcheng has come to an end, but the gunfire in the neighborhood has not stopped.

It's just that sporadic battles are naturally not worth the attention of a major general like Kunizaki, even if it will be his little gain today.

. . . . . . . . . That was already the fifth demolition team sent by three sergeants including Komura Kuma, but they were still beaten back by the more and more accurate marksmanship on the pagoda.

Of course, except for the two demolition teams in the second wave who were killed by the crows because they were too hard-headed, the other three rounds of demolition teams all tried several routes and took the initiative to retreat after being injured and killing two or three people. Withdrawn.

The Japanese army's battle losses were not as great as being trapped in an unsolvable battlefield.

It's just that the Chinese were alone, and the Japanese infantry squad was besieged, but 8 people were killed and 6 were injured but nothing was gained. The commanders of both sides could collectively open their mouths.

0:14, even the extremely tragic Cangcheng City, where both warring parties dispatched dozens of artillery pieces to participate in the battle, could not achieve such a terrible battle loss ratio.

But this is how the miracle happened.

The potential of the human body squeezed out by the crisis, the deep-seated hatred of the Japanese, the determination to fear death, a thief who accidentally broke into the battlefield with a talent for observation, and quite good luck, all kinds of complex ingredients are intertwined. , formed this miracle.

Cangcheng, nearly 800 meters away, was under heavy artillery fire. Even the ground here could feel a slight tremor, which all showed the commander's determination to conquer the Chinese. However, dozens of Japanese infantrymen were helpless with the iron pea in front of them. Before the bullets of the lively Chinese were empty.

After a few minutes of pause, Komura Kumaichi once again sent out a new demolition team. However, these four people were different from the previous demolition teams. They all wore gas masks.

This was the last support Komura received from the Japanese captain after he was forced to ask for help again.

Leaving aside the order given by the Japanese captain to capture him alive, even Komura Xiongyi himself began to admire the tenacious enemy on the top of the tower.

Although the empire entered China with the slogan "We want to fight back to our hometown, China is ours", as an adult and a normal person with some brains after studying for several years, Xiaomura Xiongyi knew very well that his hometown was in Hiroshima, that may be in far away China.

This is nothing but aggression. The Chinese have done nothing wrong, but the vast and fertile land they own is what makes only a narrow island coveted.

Having fertile land is not a sin, but having fertile land but still being so weak is the original sin of being invaded.

　　The originally stable life has been broken, land and wealth have been plundered, and lives can be taken away at any time. If the Chinese people do not fight to the death, then Xiaocun Xiongyi really thinks that they deserve to disappear from this land.

　　Why do cowards and weaklings have these good things?

When the division entered mainland China from the northeast, the Chinese resisted. Xiaocun Xiongyi, who had fought with them, knew that they resisted very hard, but their wills and bodies were soon crushed under the steel wheels of aircraft and cannons.

The divisions are advancing vigorously on the battlefield in North China, and there should be no exception in southeast China.

However, Xiaocun Xiongyi saw tenacity again. Under the small southeastern city of China, for several hours, the detachment could not advance even an inch in front of the Chinese positions.

However, compared to those who resisted, the Chinese in front of him was the first time that Sergeant Xiong Yi of Xiaocun had met him in six years of joining the army.

Alone, still holding on to his position.

It's not that he didn't try to get the Chinese who was in desperate situation to put down his arms and surrender. He even made a guarantee in the name of His Majesty the Emperor that as long as he put down his arms and came down from the top of the tower, the Kunisaki detachment would guarantee his life safety.

Unfortunately, his answer was still a gunshot, although it did not hit the Chinese translator brought from the northeast who was hiding 30 meters away and shouting at the top of his lungs.

For such an enemy, Komura Xiongyi can only respect his choice, but as a soldier of the empire, he can only make his own choice.

He wanted to kill him with his own hands, out of an invader's respect for the defender of his homeland.
