Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 458

Chapter 458 The Tragic Battle

That was destined to be a tragic battle.

In the words of Tang Dao, who rushed to the battlefield later: "They retreated not because they were not brave enough, because this encounter proved everything."

The retreating Chinese army did not have any suppressive firepower. Each man had only one rifle and only five rounds of ammunition.

However, the Japanese army has grenade launchers and machine guns, and the marksmanship of Japanese army veterans is also extremely accurate, which gave them an overwhelming advantage almost from the beginning.

What the Chinese officers and soldiers who were ordered to retreat should do most at this moment is to turn around and evacuate immediately, before the Japanese infantry can figure out the situation and use their habitual central breakthrough to outflank the two flanks.

They only need to retreat 600 meters back to get fire support from their own defense line. Although they are forced back to the crisis-ridden battlefield, they don't have to die on the spot.

Or, if you throw away all your equipment, use the cover of night, and escape lightly, most people will die under the gunfire of the Japanese army, but there will always be someone alive. What if the lucky one is you?

No matter which choice you make, there is always a chance of survival.

However, none of the 80 soldiers in total, led by Second Lieutenant Hang-Arm, who had been weakened by his parents in his hometown, left the battlefield.

Perhaps, they have already left once, although it was only 1,000 meters away. No one knows their inner suffering during this short one-kilometer journey.

No matter how they obey the order, the fact is that they have abandoned their comrades, and hundreds of comrades will use their lives to build a defense line to cover their departure.

Just like the complicated look in the eyes of the army second lieutenant who temporarily served as the supreme commander of the retreating team because of his highest military rank when he encountered the Japanese army.

First there was shock, then panic, then pain, and finally, relief.

Naturally, he was shocked because he would encounter Japanese invaders here; he was scared because, as an artillery platoon leader, he did not have much experience in infantry command; and he was miserable because in addition to his 80 infantrymen, he also had 40 seriously wounded and 14 medical staff, including 3 female nurses.

If something happens to the wounded soldier and the female nurse here, even if he dies in battle, he will still feel deeply guilty.

But in the end, I was relieved.

Can't you go back after all? Regardless of whether they are weak or strong, the Japanese invaders will not let them go.

There is no other way, then you can only die.

Yes, the presence of the wounded and the medical team destined the retreating army to fight to the death with the Japanese army in front of them, even if the entire army was annihilated.

Otherwise, all of their names will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

Of course, for these big soldiers, they don't care whether there is history or not, but since the war has reached this point, they have already recognized the fact that they are men, men of China.

As a man, I have to bear him down even if I die.

Retreating is a military order for the future. They are not cowards!

This is actually caused by the environment.

After several consecutive **** battles and experiencing countless life and death, the iron-blooded spirit of generals, officers, and comrades who refused to give up until death has actually been quietly immersed in everyone's bones.

After being unable to abandon the situation, the Chinese soldiers quickly spread out their formation and exchanged fire with the Japanese troops. They reached an agreement in a short period of time and fought with the Japanese to cover the retreat of the medical team.

Unfortunately, the Japanese commanders were far more cunning than they imagined. It only took them two or three minutes to understand the weakness of the small Chinese force in front of them, which was almost the same size as them.

Three small teams of more than 40 Japanese troops quickly moved around to the two wings because they still had to carry a few wounded people. However, the medical team of more than a dozen people was forced to withdraw before they had gone more than 100 meters.

At any rate, there are dozens of infantrymen protecting us here. If we move forward, we will be overtaken by the Japanese infantry. The medical team and wounded soldiers will have to be massacred by the Japanese army.

With a firepower of five bullets per person, it is naturally impossible to fight against the Japanese army.

Ten minutes after the battle broke out, while the front line positions in the rear were still fighting tenaciously against the Japanese troops who were constantly attacking the defense line, the retreating army was already engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the approaching Japanese troops.

The Japanese officers leading the team were overjoyed.

Since entering the battlefield in southeastern China, they have never had the opportunity to show off their unparalleled assassination skills.

Whether it is under Songjiang City or in the wilderness chasing Chinese troops, the cunning Chinese always hold various short guns with fierce firepower and shoot them at a distance of more than ten meters. Countless brave colleagues fell to the bullets of the Chinese. The dusty bayonet tips still shone coldly, but stung the eyes of countless Imperial Japanese Army warriors.

Now, the opportunity has finally come.

The Chinese have no more bullets. They can show off the bravery of the Imperial Army in this night without any scruples.

"Set up flares and let you teach the Chinese a lesson and let them know who is the most powerful army on the planet. I want the Chinese to watch their people die under the sword of the imperial warriors." Captain Taro Aso, then captain of the Aso Squadron of the 6th Infantry Battalion of the 45th Infantry Regiment of the 36th Infantry Brigade, pulled out his command knife and issued a declaration under the crescent moon that emerged from the dark clouds and emitted a hazy light.

The Chinese soldiers, after running out of ammunition, faced the Japanese infantry approaching step by step, and chose the only feasible hand-to-hand combat.

Japanese soldiers also chose hand-to-hand combat in order to resolve the battle quickly, complete the tactical goals assigned by the wing headquarters, and vent their anger at the same time.

The Chinese and Japanese soldiers charging at each other with rifles barely had much of a run-up, and they just bumped into each other hard.

Blood splashes!

The miserable howl that suddenly sounded even surpassed the previous battlefield where the gunfire was blazing.

There are Chinese and Japanese.

No matter how strong a warrior is, after the cold blade enters the body and is turned violently, causing the blade to stir between the muscles and skeletal nerves, he will scream out because of the huge pain transmitted from the nerve center.

The Japanese are very conceited, but they have the capital to be conceited.

In just the first wave of collisions, more than a dozen Chinese soldiers were stabbed in the chest and abdomen by the bayonets of the Japanese infantry, but they only suffered four or five injuries from the bayonets of the Liao-made Thirteen Rifles. Most of this was because the Chinese soldiers did not dodge. Caused by a style of play that does not avoid the same fate.

Yes, many soldiers made their decision the moment the Japanese infantry rushed over with bayonets in hand.

Exchange a life for a life.

The moment the Japanese bayonet stabbed at him with cold light, he did not block or dodge. He followed the Japanese infantry's will and bravely faced him with his chest raised.

The bayonet will pierce the skin, penetrate the muscles and break the bones, and it will be hindered. Even if it is only 0.5 seconds, the bayonet in the hands of the Chinese soldiers will pierce the Japanese infantry in almost the same position.

This style of injuring oneself first and then the enemy is undoubtedly beyond the expectations of the Japanese infantry. No matter how trapped the beast is, human instinct is to protect one's own life first. Even if you know it is difficult, you still have to struggle, right?

Unlike the Chinese, their tactics are so crude that they just swap one for the other.

This almost unreasonable fighting method caught the Japanese infantry off guard at the beginning. There were four or five pairs of soldiers from both sides who only had one face to face, and they were poking each other, and I was thrusting into each other, spitting blood and hatred at each other. See.

But when the Japanese infantry reacted, they first avoided the sharp attack and then circled around to assassinate them. The difference in strength between the two sides was exposed, and Chinese soldiers were stabbed in vital parts one after another.

In order to quickly break the morale of the Chinese soldiers, the Japanese infantry were extremely cruel. They knew clearly that the opponent had lost the ability to resist due to heavy injuries and would die soon after taking out the knife, but they still twisted the rifle body hard so that the blade was in the chest or The abdominal cavity is churning, causing unbearable pain.

However, they miscalculated.

The howl sounded!

“Fuck your grandma!”

“Bless you!”

The Chinese soldiers' unwilling curses before they died made the battlefield even more bloody.

Some red-eyed Chinese soldiers were even willing to serve as shields for their comrades. After the Japanese infantry's bayonets pierced their bodies, they immediately threw away their guns and held onto the guns that had stabbed their bodies. All their strength was put into their arms, just to delay the Japanese infantry's bayonets. Draw the knife for a second or two, and let the comrades behind you kill the opponent with one knife.

After the war, it was proved that if it were not for their exchange of death-for-death tactics that had appeared from the beginning.

There was no way they could survive ten minutes.

It was only in the last few minutes of the hand-to-hand battle that the Japanese army discovered why these Chinese soldiers who gave them a headache were fighting so hard.

Behind them, there were wounded soldiers, medical staff, and female soldiers!

Ecstatic!
