Chapter 284(1/6)
Shibasaki Taichi, the commander of the division, saw that Japs in Ito Yuyu's battalion had already rushed into the national defense line, and couldn't help but cheer loudly:
"Yoshi! Captain Yuyu Ito knows how to command."
All the Japanese soldiers around heard the division commander's praise, and all of them looked serious, but no one spoke in agreement.
Hearing such praise, Shiraishi Saburo couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth: Captain Yoshida Haruki, who was praised by you last time, has died hard and can no longer afford to cheat.
This time you started to praise again, and Ito Yuyu's team didn't look like a team that could stand the praise.
Chief of Staff Saburo Shiraishi only dared to curse these words in his heart but did not dare to say them out loud.
From the expressions of the surrounding division staff, it could also see the same inner drama.
It's not that they can't trust the fighting power of Ito Yuyu's squadron, it's that the fighting power of the opposing national army team is too strong.
Captain Yosuke Ito looked at the Fujikawa Ryunosuke squadron that had rushed into the trenches and was extremely excited.
He kept urging: "Quick! Quick! Rush up quickly!"
There are still more than 300 Japanese in this brigade, and they can definitely put up a good fight by rushing into the trenches of the Chinese army.
Captain Yosuke Ito has continuously seen the strength of the national army on this line of defense.
From the density of muzzle flashes, it can also be deduced that the number of national soldiers on this defense line should be around two to three hundred.
There are more than 300 survivors in my own brigade. When they rush into hand-to-hand combat, they can definitely take advantage of their numbers.
In addition, the individual quality of these Japanese soldiers must be higher than that of the national army, and bayonet fighting is their strong point. Various favorable factors add up.
Captain Yosuke Ito firmly believed that as long as his men rushed into the front trenches, victory would definitely belong to the Japanese.
As long as they rush into the trenches and some of the national troops are killed, they will definitely collapse and run away.
The confident Captain Yosuke Ito used the experience gained in these years of rampaging in the Northeast to give himself unlimited courage.
It loudly urged the Japanese soldiers to rush faster and rush into the trenches earlier to fight the Chinese soldiers.
The captain’s urging was effective:
Following Fujikawa Ryunosuke's squadron, Captain Ueno Taro also rushed into the trenches.
With two squadrons rushing into the trenches, Captain Yuyu Ito felt at ease.
"With two infantry squadrons and more than a hundred Japanese soldiers rushing in, the national army's defense line began to be in chaos." Captain Yongsuke Ito is a commander who pays attention to details.
From its observation, it can be found that some of the machine gun firepower points of the national army have stopped firing.
This is a good sign!
It shows that the machine gunner of the national army was assassinated by his own devils.
The Japanese soldiers in Ito Yuyu's battalion were all sprinting with all their might. They wanted to rush into the trenches as early as possible to fight the national army with bayonets.
In their minds, these Japanese soldiers are fighting against the National Army with bayonets. One of them can fight three National Army soldiers.
This idea is not groundless, but comes from their experience in fighting in the Northeast for many years.
Only the Japanese who had already rushed into the trenches and started fighting with the national army realized: Wrong!
Big mistake!
These national soldiers' bayonets were more powerful than their firepower.
It's a pity that they can't express their feelings now.
Sergeant Tanakaemon was a Japs from Taro Ueno's squadron, and he was the second group to rush into the trenches.
When it rushed into the trench and saw the situation clearly, it began to regret it.
There were already several corpses piled up in the trench in front of them, and the blood from some corpses was still steaming. It was obvious that they had just been killed.
The wounds of some corpses had stopped bleeding, and they were obviously the Japanese from Yoshida Haruki's brigade who first rushed into the trenches.
By focusing on the details, you can infer the overall situation.
Sergeant Tanakaemon saw only the corpses of Japanese soldiers on the ground, not the corpses of national soldiers.
"How could it be that in such a fierce hand-to-hand battle, the national army had no casualties?" Sergeant Tanaka Emon was already feeling cold.
There was no use regretting it at this time, Ji Qilue had already rushed over with a rifle and stabbed it in the chest.
Tanakaemon could only put away his thoughts and raise his rifle to fight.
With one gun holding the bayonet of the Japanese soldier opposite him, Tanakaemon's first thought was to blow away the thrusting rifle, and then stabbed the rifle forward, so that the Japanese soldier would only be stabbed.
This method has been used many times over the past few years and it is very easy to use.
This kind of parry-turned-counterattack technique requires a strong force. As long as the force is strong enough, the opponent's gun can be knocked away.
As soon as it got on it and felt the strength of its opponent, it immediately understood that it was not as powerful as the opponent and could not break the rifle apart.
We can only use the next plan to guide the gun to the left.
That’s four ounces of weight!
Tanaka Emon never expected that there would be a strong man on the other side, and his rifle took advantage of the situation.
Ji Qilue's rifle still suppressed the Japanese steadily and remained unmoved.
The bayonet continued to stab the target slowly but firmly.
Tanaka Emon just raised his rifle and held it against his opponent's rifle.
Then he watched the bayonet on the front of the national army's rifle stab his body bit by bit.
The rifle raised with both hands was slowly pressed close to his chest. Sergeant Tanaka Emon gritted his teeth and poured all his strength into his arms.
Still unable to change his opponent's bayonet, he slowly approached and stabbed into his body.
This is no simple matter.
As he watched the bayonet slowly pierce through his clothes, he felt the cold tip piercing his skin.
The severe pain made him scream.
It's a pity that the screams, like the slogans, have no effect at all.
Tanakaemon watched with his own eyes as the bayonet slowly sank into his body.
It's all like a movie in slow motion.
The next movement suddenly became faster again, and the bayonet was suddenly retracted.
Before it could change its movement of holding the gun in front of its chest with both hands, the gun stabbed back again.
He pressed his rifle to the front of his chest again, and the bayonet penetrated his chest again.
This time Tanakaemon no longer had the strength to stand, so he loosened his hands and let the rifle fall to the ground.
It accepted its fate and threw itself to the ground.
It's going to lie flat!
Tanakaemon, who was completely lying flat, fell to the ground, was stepped on by another foot, and stabbed with a bayonet from his back.
I also stirred it twice to ensure that it was completely dead and to prevent it from pretending to be a corpse.
When Captain Taro Ueno jumped into the trench, he also saw the corpses of Japanese soldiers who had fallen in the trench.
When it saw those corpses, its heart became cold.
Just now, I was full of enthusiasm, thinking that my team had rushed into the trenches of the National Army, and then I was just chopping melons and vegetables to drive back the National Army soldiers.
Defeated!
The next step is to chase!
Captain Taro Ueno had planned all this.
However, it never expected that the situation would be like this.
When he saw the corpses of the Japanese in the trench, Captain Ueno Taro hesitated a little and did not rush forward immediately.
The way the squadron leader hesitated was very special. He waved his command knife and ordered the rest of the Japanese to go forward and fight.
It can wait a little while.
Because Squadron Leader Taro Ueno knew very well that the entire brigade of Japanese soldiers would soon rush into the trenches.
It didn't take long to wait, and soon more Japs rushed in.
Captain Yosuke Ito also rushed in.
It jumped into the trench and discovered that the national army's trenches were actually divided into layers. If you stood on the bottom and walked upright, you couldn't even see outside.
Standing on a step, your head can just look out from the middle of the sandbag. When shooting like this, you are not afraid of being suppressed by the firepower of the attacking Japanese.
A step could be built at the bottom of the trench. This was the first time Captain Yosuke Ito had seen such a trench.
Every few meters there is a sunken pit, like a jar.
Captain Ito Yosuke couldn't understand how this pit was used for a while.
It also saw many corpses of Japanese soldiers in the trenches, but not a single corpse of a Chinese soldier.
