Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 592

Chapter 592 Just for one breath

This is a **** day!

The Chinese were unable to retreat, while the Japanese and their dogs were unable to dismount.

If one side retreats, everyone will die, while if the other side retreats, all the previous efforts will be in vain.

　　Just like two gamblers who put all their wealth into the capital market, no matter how bad the market falls, they have to 'cover their positions' with red eyes.

Commanders on both sides gritted their teeth and constantly mobilized troops to charge into this position, which would never exceed one square kilometer in radius.

If one infantry company fails, bring in another; if there are no reserve soldiers in the central position, then draw troops from the two wings.

If a position is lost, then organize people to take it back again. Every inch of territory must be fought for!

Human life has become the cheapest commodity on such a battlefield.

The Lieutenant General of the Sichuan Army had already dispatched the most elite guard company around him to the battlefield at about 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

At 3 pm, two infantry companies drawn from the left-wing position entered the battlefield.

At 4 p.m., two infantry companies on the right flank entered the battlefield.

At 5 pm, Tang Dao personally led the guard platoon and Li Jijin's 2nd company into the battlefield.

The fierce gunshots resounded in the mountains for the whole day, until the sun set in the west, and the setting sun was like blood.

The warring parties finally stopped this "hot pot war" suggested by Tang Dao and escalated by Lieutenant General of the Sichuan Army.

In order to prevent the crazy Chinese army from attacking at night, the Jingan Army and the Japanese Army took the initiative to use the cover of night to withdraw from the position that they spent a day and suffered nearly 1,400 battle losses to occupy.

By noon of the battle, Li Shoushan and two Japanese majors had actually understood the Chinese people's thoughts. They used the interlocking positions to cling to the infantry they had entered. They did not 'love' them much, but used these infantry as their own. A shield to block threats that may come from the sky and artillery groups.

Turn a battlefield where the heavy firepower is far inferior to that of the opponent into a pure battle of infantry skills, tactics and bravery.

The Chinese succeeded, but they miscalculated.

Except for the early morning fighter bombardment and a round of artillery bombardment, throughout the day, in addition to the infantry artillery arriving 600 meters ahead of the position and bombarding a few shots at the Chinese position visible to the naked eye, the mountain artillery and field artillery became decorations.

The bomber formation dispatched by the Navy was even more empty-handed and consumed fuel. They circled the mountains for several times and could only stare blankly. They could only vent their anger by dropping tons of bombs on the left and right wing positions. But before they arrived, the Chinese on the position might have another chance. He dodged early, and besides loosening the soil in the forest, he didn't get any use for the ball.

This almost scoundrel-like fighting method can not only disgust people, but also beat them to the bone.

The left wing position was so badly beaten by the Chinese several times that they only lost a few hundred people, but it was better here. At the end of the day, almost an infantry regiment was almost wiped out.

Of course, it was not all the losses of the Jing'an Army.

The infantry brigade sent by the Kunisaki detachment to supervise the battle but volunteered to fight also contributed a considerable number of heads.

The major commander of the infantry brigade was actually considered a smart man. When he realized something was wrong in the afternoon, he stopped being so awesome and sent troops into the battlefield. But that was after he had already sent two infantry squadrons into the battlefield.

This unlucky infantry brigade, which originally suffered more than 150 casualties in Songjiang, finally managed to add 80 men from the baggage troops, which was barely enough to fully fill its ranks.

When he quietly left the battlefield at night and arrived at the rear to take inventory, the Japanese major who had looked like a dead mother all day almost shed tears.

Of the two infantry squadrons that entered the battlefield, the first infantry squadron still had 90 people standing, and the other infantry squadron that entered later was in slightly better condition, with 120 people.

This is equivalent to an infantry squadron disappearing into thin air.

Only about 200 people were killed or wounded. What do you think of that coward? Li Shoushan felt ashamed that he had such a Japanese master. I had already lost nearly 8 infantry companies, okay?

Huge casualties made Li Shoushan feel chilly about the outcome of this war for the first time.

As a former Chinese, he knew China's demographic advantage very well. If every subsequent war was fought like this, let alone one for one, even if it was five for one, the Japanese would send all the old, weak, women and children from all over the country. , not enough to replace it!

The active withdrawal spent thousands of casualties to capture before capturing. It is one aspect of fear of being attacked by the night. For more importantly, Li Shoushan and two Japanese soldiers Shao Zuo discussed one afternoon, and decided to use his own heavy firepower advantages.

If this position cannot be conquered in one day, then it will take two days, if not, then three days. The order from the Tenth Army Headquarters only requires them to arrive at the outskirts of Jinling before early December, and they still have enough time.

They have had enough of exchanging lives for each other.

Compared to the heartbroken Japanese and Japanese soldiers, the Chinese supreme commander, Lieutenant General Commander of the 145th Division, really shed tears during the daytime count of personnel after the war. On the battlefield during the day, he is the supreme commander. He can ruthlessly feed each living life into this life-driven meat grinder for the sake of tactical goals.

But when the bright moon was in the sky and he stood in front of the corpses with pale faces, he was a father and a brother!

These young soldiers were all his disciples brought from his hometown. Their parents came to see them off before the whole army left. He drank the rice wine glutinous rice **** served by the elders in his hometown and made an oath that he would take these young soldiers with him. People return in triumph.

But war is so cruel, there is no victory, let alone return.

His 1,800 soldiers, because of his order, walked to the battlefield without hesitation, and then died on the battlefield!

More than 2,000 people died in the battle in these two days alone.

If the casualties in the Si'an battle in the past few days are added in, of the 5,000 soldiers of the 145th Division who arrived at the front line, only less than 2,000 remain.

Yes, although more troops have been invested and the terrain is advantageous, the Sichuan army is far inferior to the Japanese army in terms of the quality of its soldiers and light weapons and equipment. If we have to find another trait that can narrow the gap between the two sides, it is the bravery of the Sichuan people who are red-eyed and fearless of death.

At noon, the Sichuan Army Lieutenant General sent in his own guard company, so there was no need to supervise the battle team.

The Sichuan army on the battlefield is no longer for any tactics, but purely for one breath: All my brothers are almost dead, so what's the point of living alone? Why don't we die together, and we can still show off together at the Palace of Hell? gossip.

Of the 22 infantry companies that entered the position, all four of the infantry companies were killed, but no one retreated.

It's a fight with the dog! This was the last and only slogan of the soldiers.

The Major General of the 433rd Brigade, who was in charge of the right-wing battlefield, rushed to the main central position. This was also the first time that Tang Dao saw the Sichuan Army Major General who succeeded the Sichuan Army Lieutenant General as the commander of the 145th Division after the Sichuan Army Lieutenant General committed suicide in the war history records.

The middle-aged man with a stocky build and a calm face did not shed tears like the commander who was standing alone in front of the array of corpses. Instead, he knelt down.

As a major general, kneeling in front of his ordinary military brothers.

"Brothers! Let's go. I, Tong Yi, will come to find you in this life!" The Sichuan Army Major General raised his head to the sky and howled loudly.

Like a lone wolf who has lost his companions.

The roar echoed in the blood-stained mountains.

Many years later, after the major general brigade commander who had been promoted to lieutenant general died, his descendants scattered his ashes in this mountain according to his last wish.

General, finally fulfilled your wish.

That should be the most peaceful and peaceful moment in a soldier's life.

There is no mausoleum. The nearly 1,400 corpses who died on the spot used the trenches as their tombs. The two thousand people who were still alive used soil to fill up the positions where they fought for every inch of land during the day. Below, they slept who had used their lives to protect them on this position. soldiers.

The Japanese soldiers in the distance only heard the sound of pickaxes and shovels moving earth from the mountains opposite, and they thought it was the Chinese digging trenches overnight again.

　　When I think about the number of trench passages that will appear as dense as a spider web overnight, I feel chilly but at the same time I have no choice but to do anything about it.

But for Li Shoushan and the two Japanese majors, this was proof enough to confirm that the stubborn group of Chinese soldiers would still resist.

Throughout the night, there were frequent telegrams from the Japanese military in the Guangde area, and the Japanese Navy even promised to send a formation of 24 bombers.

Since the Chinese position is so strong, if the entire mountain is razed to the ground, there will be no position that the Japanese Empire cannot conquer.

Even the hapless boy of the 36th Infantry Brigade, who had been dozens of kilometers away, received a telegram from Ushijima Mitsuru, ordering them to set off early the next morning to cooperate with the Kunisaki detachment to conquer Guangde County.

As for the 1st Brigade of the Jingan Army, although it is also in the imperial army, it is only on the same level as military dogs and is not qualified to appear frequently in battle reports.

But the first to occupy a position that has been difficult to attack for a long time is the military dog.
