The road to retreat has been cut off. The four machine guns of the two tanks were parked at the most advantageous position to fire, and there was also an infantry cannon to assist.

If they could break out in this situation, the Chao Shi Brigade would have just broken through the defense line of the defenders inside the fort and occupied the entire fort.

This time, Captain Asahi Takuya had no choice but to change his mind.

It could only issue a new order: "Defend!"

All the Japanese soldiers present knew that their current defense would mean death.

If a signal for help can be sent out and the reinforcements arrive in time, the Chao Shi Brigade may still have a chance of survival.

But in this situation, the signal for help cannot be sent out, and there are no reinforcements at all.

Holding on until the end is a dead end.

The Japanese have been blocked in an area of ​​less than twenty acres south of the fort.

Wei Mingyang ordered: "Yang Dazhu! Base!"

On such a battlefield, mortars are much easier to use than infantry artillery.

Under the current circumstances, the second battalion could wipe out all the Japanese without firing their own artillery.

However, Wei Mingyang is not a lazy person and should end the battle as soon as possible.

To avoid long nights and many dreams and unhindered branches.!

The Japanese who were hiding behind the bunkers were suddenly hit by shells falling from the sky.

The front of the Chao Shi Brigade was surrounded by tanks from all directions, which made their defense very difficult.

But now there is a mortar specifically targeting the middle of them.

Besieged on all sides, blooming in the center.

This made the Chao Shi Brigade unable to bear the burden. Captain Abe Taro, who had just played a clever trick, was already red-eyed at this time.

It waved its pistol and shouted an order: "Hold it! Hold it!"

The breakout failed, and its current struggle is meaningless.

Just as it was waving its pistol, a cannonball fell without warning.

A booming explosion sounded, and squadron leader Taro Abe died.

Captain Asashi Takuya looked at the team that was losing its numbers faster and faster, feeling despair in his heart.

Although it has added the remaining Japs from the artillery brigade into its own ranks, it is under such circumstances that it is surrounded by enemies on all sides and the center is constantly being bombed.

The entire brigade of Japanese soldiers is losing strength every minute and every second.

At this rate, within half an hour at most, the entire brigade and artillery brigade would be finished.

The desperate Captain Asashi Takuya didn't want to see this scene, so he slowly sat on the ground and took off his shirt.

He exposed his abdomen, pulled out his side of the body, and cut a deep cross into his abdomen.

It was not dead for a while, its eyes were fixed on Captain Yoshinaga Akiyoshi, and it never complained about the artillery battalion from beginning to end.

If the artillery brigade had not lost its cannon and had artillery to deal with the defenders' tanks, the fort would have been captured.

By now, Captain Asashi Takuya had understood: there must be many national soldiers guarding the fort, and the number would not exceed one hundred.

Just thinking about the fact that a hundred soldiers of the National Army wiped out an infantry brigade and an artillery brigade of his own, Captain Asashi Takuya felt that he deserved to die.

Captain Asashi Takuya is dead, but Captain Yoshinaga Akiyoshi still wants to live, but he cannot be a prisoner.

Captain Yoshinaga Akiyoshi, who took over the command, didn't know what to do.

Without the command of the captain, the remaining defense line composed of more than 200 Japanese soldiers quickly collapsed.

At the last moment, Captain Yoshinaga Akiyoshi finally committed suicide with a pistol.

The dozens of soldiers of the Second Battalion immediately began cleaning the battlefield as soon as the battle ended.

Twelve infantry cannons were also pushed back into the fort, and the captured weapons and ammunition were piled up in most of the room.

This time, the battlefield of the Second Battalion was cleaned much more carefully. Helmets, bullet pouches, belts, and shoes were all cleaned up.

If you call the battlefield your home, the battlefield is at home. The supplies you have cleaned up can be brought into the fortress without moving too far.

Gu Zuo and others who were guarding the fort heard the bragging of Wu Youdao, who had gone out with the camp to attack the warships.

It was said that the battalion commander sold the motorcycle he drove out for US$100,000, and also sold the Japanese warship still floating on the river for US$5 million.

This frightened Gu Zuo and the others, although Guan Dahai also said that he would tow a warship back in exchange for money.

That was just talk. I didn't expect that Yingzuo could actually convert those warships into money.

Although the money has not been received yet, it will eventually arrive when this battle is over.

Sixty people, six hundred thousand, each soldier can be divided into at least three or four thousand.

With so much money, the dozens of dollars you get after cleaning the battlefield are not exciting anymore.

After Wei Mingyang finished cleaning the battlefield, he ordered Li Cheng and two others to get on their motorcycles and drive back to Baoshan County to report the situation of today's battle to the regimental commander.

On another battlefield, a company guarding the Shizilin Fort was fiercely attacked by a Japanese infantry brigade, and finally managed to hold on to its position with the help of two companies on the outer defense line and the newly arrived security group.

The fighting here has just ended, and the security leader Hou Mingyang wants to leave with his troops immediately.

His regiment is a supplementary regiment, and it comes to the front line to send soldiers.

The commander of the first battalion, Xie Jianzhong, was also aware of this and specifically called Commander Lu in Baoshan County for instructions, requesting an additional 400 men for his battalion.

Of the three battalions under Lu Jingrong, one battalion currently suffered the least casualties.

When the commander of the first battalion asked for 400 additional soldiers, he immediately said: "Captain Xie, there are only 47 people left in the second battalion. The number of the third battalion has been reduced by 400 people. Do you think it is appropriate to leave 400 people in the first battalion?"

?”

"Suitable! Very suitable!" the first battalion commander said without any hesitation.

"My order! Leave two hundred people in the first battalion, and send all the rest to Baoshan County." Commander Lu had no choice but to give the order directly to the playful smile of the first battalion commander.

"yes!"

The first battalion commander agreed. The security group also participated in the battle just now. The first battalion commander had carefully observed it and saw that the first company of this regiment had the strongest combat effectiveness.

Without any further hesitation, I left the first and second companies behind, dispersed them, and added them to the three companies of the first battalion.

Hou Mingyang, the head of the security team, also participated in the battle just now. Now he just wants to complete the delivery task quickly and return to the rear as soon as possible: the battlefield is too dangerous.

Originally, he was a little dissatisfied that his regiment had been broken up and added to the main regiment, and that he had become the bare commander.

After seeing the cruelty on the battlefield, I finally realized that it was much safer to be a polished regimental commander in the rear than to command operations at the front.

The Japanese army's attack on the front lines of Yuepu and Baoshan today was unfavorable, and they had withdrawn their troops at this time.

It was convenient for the regiment leader to march with his team. It was only ten miles from Shizilin to Baoshan County.
