Chapter 266: Elephant Tank
Feng Youcai immediately ordered: "A row leader!"
"Come!" A row leader Li Zigui came out to salute and replied loudly.
"Immediately lead the entire platoon and take the wounded men from the Second Battalion and these mules and horses back to Baoshan.
Don't stop all the way, be sure to send these brothers to you safely."
"Please rest assured that the company commander, Bei Yi will definitely send these brothers back to Baoshan County safely."
He took his soldiers to carry out the mission. The mules and horses were loaded with equipment that the third battalion had packed before the attack.
A row leader Li Zigui and his soldiers set off immediately.
Company Commander Feng Youcai saw a bandage wrapped around the fourth company commander Gu’s left arm, ran over and asked, “Company Commander Gu! Is it seriously injured?”
"It's just a little bit of skin, there's no problem at all." Gu Zuo was still very happy to see Feng Youcai bring Jiulian over.
"Brother Gu! How did you fight? The casualties are so severe, the brothers' faces do not look dejected at all."
Feng Youcai just wanted to inquire about how the Second Camp fought today?
Gu Zuo smiled: "I'm afraid you don't believe me if you say it."
"Don't brag, I just believe it." Feng Youcai got a vaccination first.
"Look at it, before you start talking, you just say I'm bragging. I won't say it, it will make you anxious." Gu Zuo was unhappy.
"You said you, but I didn't say you didn't believe me, nor did you brag."
Gu Zuo actually wanted to publicize today's battle. Even if Feng Youcai didn't ask, he would find an opportunity to show off in front of him.
Hearing that Feng Youcai had surrendered, he spoke, "We just walked in front today and were ambushed by the Japanese.
The regiment led us to fight and retreat, retreating to the hill to guard and wait for help.
I only saw the situation on the battlefield clearly when I arrived on the mountain bag: there was a Japanese infantry brigade who stopped us in front.
Another Japanese infantry brigade was cut off from behind.
The Japanese devils also used cannons and grenade launchers together, and shot down the cannon and grenades like raindrops.
Guess why, I exploded the artillery position of the Japanese brigade and snatched the mortar and grenade launcher of the Japanese brigade.
All these two Japanese infantry brigades were wiped out, and the charge of a Japanese cavalry gang was destroyed.
The Japanese cavalry were scared by us and ran away on their own initiative.
The Japanese sent planes to bomb again, and they knocked down sixteen planes.
Now the Japanese are just not sending tanks."
Looking at Feng Youcai's obvious disbelief expression, Gu Zuo was anxious: "Come on! I'll show you the evidence."
He dragged Feng Youcai to the bodies of the captain Dashu and Captain Taro Matsushita: "Look at if this is the captain of the Japanese!
We had captured these two Japanese captains alive, but they were killed by their planes."
Looking at the identity cards and military ranks of the two Japanese, Feng Youcai was a little convinced.
Gu Zuo also felt that the evidence was insufficient, so he dragged him to Captain Lu: "Team! Use it with your telescope."
Borrow the telescope and put it in Feng Youcai's hand: "You look over there and see the bodies of those war horses?
Can count!
If you count carefully, there are hundreds of war horses? I haven’t learned math well, so I can’t count until four hundred.
You guys count it carefully to see if you can count it?"
Feng Youcai used a telescope to look over the battlefield, and everywhere he looked, there were corpses of Japanese men.
As a military academy graduate, I guess it is basically OK. If you roughly estimate, there are actually more than 2,000 Japanese corpses and three or four hundred war horses.
"You really killed so many Japanese devils! A great victory! A great victory!"
"Let you open your eyes and see these three cannons?
This is what we seized, and there was also a cannon that followed Battalion Commander Wei."
"Isn't Commander of the Third Battalion Commander Zhang?"
"The old battalion commander sacrificed his life when he led his brothers to break through the hill.
The current battalion commander is in the airship in the distance. When you see that person is special, that person is Captain Wei." Gu Zuo said.
"Battleman Zhang died, why are you three company commanders taking over? Why is there an outsider?" Feng Youcai asked in a low voice.
"I'm an outsider, but I'm convinced, what's wrong?
Our battalion commander’s name is powerful: Wei Mingyang, famous!
How about it, this name is so majestic!"
Feng Youcai was right. In terms of reason, the Second Battalion Commander should choose one of the three company commanders to serve.
The one who has the most chance to be promoted is Gu Zuo, but after seeing Wei Mingyang's performance today, Gu Zuo had already stopped his mind from competing for the position of battalion commander.
Guan Dahai and Li Daqiang both had the same idea, although the three of them were all students of the Whampoa Military Academy.
Each of them has excellent command ability and military qualities, but compared with Wei Mingyang's performance just now, it seems too pediatric.
Otherwise, how could the company commanders of the 583rd Regiment, who are the direct line of the Central Army, be convinced?
Gu Zuo did not explain Wei Mingyang's deeds in detail, and just said it in a concealed manner.
Wei Mingyang ran back from the position of the airship falling, urging Commander Lu to leave the place quickly.
Feng Youcai's platoon, the wounded men of the Second Battalion and some soldiers left in front, and now the remaining people are also walking towards Baoshan County.
It’s just that there are too many weapons and ammunition cleaned up on the battlefield. I found a complete twelve heavy machine guns. In addition, some heavy machine guns that were blown up can be removed as repair parts.
All of these were collected by Feng Youcai, and more than 30 light machine guns were seized, including more grenade launchers and Type 38 rifles.
With so many weapons, there are less than 200 people here, everyone is carrying six or seven guns and hanging six or seven ammunition bags.
Fortunately, the mule and horse that escaped by chance were taken back again, and they could carry the heavy machine gun on it, otherwise the good things here would not be taken away.
It’s just that so many were seized and the load was so heavy that the team could not move faster.
After receiving the mission of the Hondo Dashu Infantry Brigade to support the Lion Forest, the captain of Suzuki Rokuro Tank immediately led the team to set off.
It led the team to rush forward, and when it arrived at the battlefield, only saw the corpses of the Japanese on the ground.
This made it very depressed: I got up early and rushed to the evening party, and I couldn't even eat shit when I came on the battlefield.
When the Japanese in the Tank Squadron saw thousands of Japanese corpses in the wild, they were angry and demanded to continue chasing them.
Captain Ono Seven said: "The National Army must have not finished yet, although there is Baoshan County in front.
I'm not afraid even if I chase it into the city!"
This is a fact! If these tanks can enter the city, they are not afraid of chasing them.
The Kuomintang army had no good way to deal with the Japanese tanks. There was no better way except to use people to rush nearby and use grenades and explosives to blow them up.
Most of the National Army troops do not have Warring States defense cannons for fighting tanks. Not to mention that the one stationed in Baoshan is a battalion, even a single army of the National Army cannot be equipped with tank defense cannons.
Captain Taro Suzuki himself also wanted to chase him to Baoshan Prefecture.
It was a commander who was good at following the flow, and immediately waved: "Get on the car! Keep chasing!"
Chapter completed!
