Although the rain is much smaller at this moment, the visibility is still less than a dozen meters, and at this time, the water in many parts of the ancient city is knee-deep, and many ruins and rubble are submerged under water, which is definitely a nightmare torture for the rapid march.
Although the troops sent by the Japanese army clearly knew that the despicable and shameless Chinese army they were looking for was wearing the uniform of the Imperial Army, due to the urgency of the situation, the large number of Japanese combat units participating in the encirclement and suppression, and the impact of the heavy rain, it was impossible to effectively and smoothly identify and communicate with each other among the various units of the Japanese army.
The 100 Chinese soldiers led by Song Yuhang were different, they could shoot at will without any scruples, and in the torrential rain, the Japanese soldiers who were extremely nervous would shoot as soon as they found a figure.
The Japanese encircling forces fell into temporary chaos, and Song Yuhang took advantage of this rare confusion to divide the team into teams of ten, using the firepower advantage of automatic weapons to inflict a large number of casualties on the Japanese troops, while the ammunition carried by the Chinese soldiers was also rapidly depleted.
In the ruins of two streets at the center of the fighting, the remains of Japanese soldiers were everywhere, and the blood stained the rain that had accumulated on the ground red.
But at dawn, the chaos of the Japanese army was quickly changed, and looking at the rapid and orderly retreat of the Japanese troops, Song Yuhang had a very bad premonition.
The scattered Chinese soldiers took advantage of the rare opportunity to clear ammunition or reinforce temporary bunkers, and the torrential rain gradually began to subside, and visibility was restored to about 50 meters.
Song Yuhang's premonition finally came true, looking at the Japanese soldiers wearing the white armbands of the military police, with a small team of more than a dozen people alternately covering each other, Song Yuhang realized that the Japanese army must have surrounded this place, and the military police logo worn by the Japanese attacking troops must be used to identify the way of friend and foe.
Kazuo Yagyu, who had taken over the command of Heiichiro Kimori, had a smug smile on his lips at this moment, and he was very grateful to His Excellency General Takeuchi for giving him this opportunity to take revenge, especially when the military headquarters and the base camp were paying attention, but the order to force this Chinese army to surrender made him feel very troubled.
In order to show his excellent command ability and the superb combat skills of his subordinates, Yagyu Kazuo did not use artillery, but ordered the other troops to encircle, and let his three teams of twelve people take the lead, and the two squadrons that followed behind did the key attack.
In view of the several squadron-sized misfires that occurred last night, in order to distinguish between friend and foe, Yagyu Kazuo ordered all the attacking troops to wear gendarmerie insignia.
The specially trained Japanese soldiers carefully cooperated with each other, adopted the tactics of step-by-step battalion, and steadily used the method of demolition to clear the Chinese soldiers hidden in the ruins of each building one by one.
Under the suppression of the Japanese army, the range of activities of the Chinese soldiers became smaller and smaller, and at this time the sky was already glowing blue-white, the rain was gradually decreasing, and the visibility had returned to almost normal levels.
In the face of this exploratory attack of the Japanese army, Song Yuhang can be said to be helpless, although the Japanese army as a sharp soldier is only about 30 people, but the Japanese soldiers who also have a large number of automatic weapons can always constitute an absolute advantage in strength and firepower to the Chinese soldiers guarding the ruins in a small area, and if the nearby Chinese soldiers rashly attack for reinforcements, they will be hit by the follow-up firepower of the Japanese army.
Looking at the more than two dozen soldiers who were guarding with him, Song Yuhang smiled gloomily and said, "Do you regret it?"
The soldiers who had been nervously watching were stunned for a moment, and looked at the deputy commander who had been fighting on the front line since the siege of the city in confusion.
A veteran from Shandong pulled the slightly tight Japanese military uniform on his body, pulled open the chamber of the gun with a bang, checked it, and said: "Sir, we don't plan to go back alive after entering this death squad, what is there to regret Lao Tzu killed the devil and died in front, and he is a good man after twenty years." ” A sergeant in his twenties with glasses next to the veteran listened to the veteran's words, turned his head and glanced at Song Yuhang, smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
The veteran looked at the glasses sergeant crawling in the cracks of the rubble, and said to Song Yuhang: "That baby is called Qin Haitao is a student, how can he join the team in Kunlun Pass, he can write and count, it's a pity to die here, I'm afraid he hasn't even smelled a woman."
The veteran's words triggered a burst of laughter from the Chinese soldiers in the ruins, and many of the Chinese soldiers in the nearby ruins also looked at each other.
After a day and a night of heavy rain, there was a brief pause, and the moist air seemed to be able to hold out water, and the light mist that had been floating on the ground quickly turned into a thick fog.
Yagyu Kazuo gritted his teeth at this sudden thick fog, he knew very well that the commander of the Chinese army that he hated to the bone was an extremely cunning guy, just like a loach mixed with oil, and a single attention would let him slip away, which would not only be a shame for him Yagyu Kazuo, but also a shame for the entire division and even the military headquarters, and even the shame of the Imperial Japanese Army.
Soon, the heavy footsteps of the Japanese army and the continuous sound of passwords sounded in the thick fog, and Song Yuhang knew that the Japanese had begun to play hooligans, and this human flesh tactic of ignoring the lives of soldiers had become a traditional magic weapon for the Japanese army to defeat the enemy at a critical time.
In order to reduce the casualties of his subordinates, Yagyu Kazuo decided to launch a final attack on the Chinese troops in the encirclement, and this glorious mission was handed over to the Kukugi Brigade of the 55th Division and the Tanashita Brigade of the 56th Division, and these two brigades were to undertake all the attack tasks.
The messy terrain and the dilapidated narrow streets filled with rubble allowed the Japanese army to deploy less than two squadrons, and even so, the Japanese army was several times stronger than the Chinese soldiers at the moment.
Fighting broke out inadvertently, and out of fear, some Chinese soldiers in the ruins began to shoot fiercely in the direction of the footsteps that came from the thick fog.
The screams of Japanese soldiers and the wails of the wounded were suddenly heard in the dense fog, and soon the weakness of automatic weapons was exposed, and the Chinese soldiers, who did not have a good grasp of the rate of fire, quickly ran out of their remaining ammunition.
Realizing that there was not much ammunition left, Song Yuhang closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, survival is what every normal person desires, for Song Yuhang, who has already died once, death is not terrible, he is just unwilling to end it so simply, he still has a lot of things to do, and there are still many wishes that have not been fulfilled, so Song Yuhang is not willing to die, but to make him surrender to the Japanese, then Song Yuhang would rather die.
For a professional soldier, from the day he put on the military uniform, he and his life do not belong to him, and the responsibility for the country and the nation will be his only mission, and for a soldier, especially a Chinese soldier, surrender is the most unacceptable and understandable, between honor and life, Song Yuhang did not hesitate to choose the former.
Song Yuhang was the first to shout and rushed out of the ruins, and all the inspired Chinese soldiers followed, after emptying the remaining half of the magazine, Song Yuhang met with an oncoming Japanese soldier Cao Chang, the Japanese soldier Cao Chang who seemed to be very experienced was slightly stunned for the Zhongzuo who appeared in front of him, but found that the other party was coming towards him, so he brandished his saber and slashed at Song Yuhang.
Song Yuhang slid half a step to let go of the saber of the Japanese Cao Chang, raised his left arm and smashed the 1 carbine into the face of the Japanese Cao Chang, and while the Japanese Cao Chang fell to the ground and screamed, Song Yuhang stabbed the barrel of the 1 carbine into the mouth of the Japanese Cao Chang.
Pulling out two Mauser pistols, Song Yuhang endured the robbery wound on his right shoulder, opened his bow left and right to kill the Japanese soldiers who were close to him, and soon ran out of bullets Song Yuhang casually pulled up a Type 38 rifle with a bayonet from the corpse of the Japanese soldier.
Song Yuhang stabbed forward violently, and an unprepared Japanese soldier was pierced in the chest, and then he turned around with his instinct to dodge a shining bayonet, and dragged the bayonet on the opponent's neck.
The blood with the heat suddenly sprayed Song Yuhang's face, and at this moment the heroic Chinese soldiers were already fighting with the Japanese army, and the thick fog was full of shouts and killings in two different languages, blood was splashing wantonly, and minced flesh and stumps were flying.
Bayonets, rifle butts, rubble, fists, teeth, for the survival of the nation and the country, and for the honor of the soldiers, the Chinese soldiers used everything they thought could be used as weapons, which represented the fierce collision of the national souls in the subconscious of the two nations.
With the shouts of the Chinese soldiers again and again, the Japanese soldiers in the thick fog began to retreat, although the Japanese army was several times the strength of the Chinese soldiers, but the dense fog offset the Japanese army's strength advantage and personal combat skill advantage.
The white-knuckle battle in the dense fog is completely fought by the will of the soldiers, and the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road Kazuo Yagyu, who had been following the troops slowly, did not hesitate to raise his hand and kill several retreating Japanese soldiers, but more Japanese soldiers slipped past him under the cover of the fog.
The panicked expressions of the soldiers made Yagyu Kazuo finally realize the reality that the senseless warriors of the Imperial Japanese Army were already trembling.
Even the two division commanders, Hiroshi Takeuchi and Masao Watanabe, who were watching the battle from a distance, were also terrified Although the heroic Chinese soldiers defeated the Japanese attack, they also suffered heavy casualties, and Song Yuhang, who was brought out of a blood groove by the Japanese bayonet on his waist, took off his coat and wrapped his shirt around his waist as a tourniquet.
There were less than 30 Chinese soldiers who retreated to Song Yuhang's side, and Song Yuhang lost dozens of soldiers in the tragic hand-to-hand combat just now, although the casualties of the Japanese army were much higher than those of the Chinese soldiers, but for the Chinese soldiers who fought alone, every combatant was extremely precious.
The retreating Japanese army was being reorganized, and the voices of officers scolding and beating soldiers continued to be heard, and Kazuo Yagyu stood in front of Hiroshi Takeuchi and Masao Watanabe with a ashamed face, and he was speechless about the failure of the attack.
Takeuchi frowned tightly and slammed the ground with a katana and said, "It seems that we can't force these Shina people to surrender."
Watanabe Masao knew that Takeuchi was exculpating Yagyu Kazuo, but he was not thinking about this problem, and the battle with Gu made Watanabe Masao, a highly talented student who graduated from the Department of Strategy of the Army University, realize a very serious problem:
