Chapter 506 of the Anti-Japanese Iron-blooded Expeditionary Force, Kou was defeated like a mountain Chapter 506: Kou was defeated like a mountain Okamura Ningji's last fight made Zhang Lingfu feel tremendous pressure.
The Japanese soldiers poured up from the darkness as if they were dead, and another wave of bullets fell to the ground, and the corpses of the Japanese soldiers in front of the nameless high ground could be described as piled up, and even filled the trenches of the Chinese defenders on the first line.
The corpses of the Japanese soldiers on the frontal slope of the nameless heights were broken by the shells, and the Japanese launched an attack The new corpses were falling down and being blown up, and the cycle began again, and the battle reached its maximum at 2 o'clock in the morning, the Japanese soldiers shouted that they were carrying a bare-chested rifle with bayonets, and marched straight to the Chinese defenders' positions in a neat queue, the machine gun was red and the barrel was too late to be replaced, the machine gunners picked up the rifles and began to shoot, the reorganized 74th Division was only equipped with one battalion of 1944 assault rifles, under the attack of the Japanese army, The fire of the 1 Garand semi-automatic rifle was simply not sustainable, and the hit efficiency of night shooting was really low.
The 58th Brigade Commander Lu Xing personally raised a machine gun at a critical moment to strafe the Japanese army, and then in the white-knuckle battle, the three Japanese soldiers were martyred.
Finally, at 4 a.m. on August 28, 1945, the Nameless Heights were lost, and the crisis was again at a juncture.
Deputy division commander Cai Renjie and division commander Zhang Lingfu respectively led a guard company to divide into two routes, collected the 58th Brigade's rout, and transferred two battalions from the 57th Brigade to take advantage of the Japanese army's unstable foothold to counterattack and recapture the unnamed heights that had just been lost.
In the fierce battle on the nameless heights, the Chinese and Japanese armies had generals with gold stars to rush to the front line, which was extremely rare in many years of war.
In the end, the Chinese army did not lose the nameless heights, and the Japanese army did not occupy the nameless heights, both sides from howitzers to mortars were red barrels, the officers and soldiers on both sides were exhausted, the Japanese occupied one-third of the positions, the Chinese defenders occupied two-thirds of the positions, the Japanese were no longer on the offensive, their guns were as empty as their stomachs, and a few rice regiments were not enough for them to fight all night.
The Chinese soldiers were eating canned food and even liquor, they also consumed the ammunition, and the two sides were facing each other less than 20 meters away, the Chinese soldiers were calmly sharpening their bayonets, while the hungry Japanese soldiers were gulping their saliva, they were staring at the food in each other's hands not far away like wild beasts, but they did not have the courage to rush over and grab it.
Because the Chinese soldiers were sitting on the corpses of their companions eating and drinking, the Japanese officers and soldiers who knew a little Chinese could clearly hear the Chinese soldiers muttering The bravery of the Chinese soldiers had already left a deep impression on the Japanese officers and soldiers, and these reinforcements who had been forcibly mobilized from China to China found themselves completely deceived, and the meekness of the vanquished people was all from the cold guns of the night, and the shortage of supplies made life as difficult as at home, and they were still in fear.
The main thing is that the Chinese soldiers are not as easy to collapse as they are advertised in the country.
When you see the imperial army, you will kneel down and disarm and surrender, and those Chinese soldiers who are like wild beasts can still take you to hell even if they are bayonet.
What kind of troops are they fighting against, their firepower is fierce, they are not afraid of death, and the Imperial Japanese Army will not be able to defeat such an opponent.
Some desperate Japanese soldiers were secretly crying, they missed their families, and they didn't know if the Allied bombing had blown up their houses and hurt their loved ones.
In the past, at this time, the officers would jump out and use their scabbards to draw the soft bones of crying, but not at this moment, because most of the officers have all been killed, and even those who survived were exhausted, they really couldn't move, and about 2,000 Japanese officers and soldiers near the nameless position turned out to be from three divisions and an independent mixed brigade, and the fierce battle and echelon reinforcements had already thrown the formation into chaos, and at least seven or eight thousand Japanese officers and soldiers fell before the nameless heights.
The corpses of the officers and soldiers on both sides of the war have completely covered the nameless heights, and the trenches and communication trenches on the previous defense lines are all filled with corpses.
Private Ono Jiro looked at the unfamiliar faces beside him, and kept trying to find the military cao who had been taking care of him, crawling around on the corpses everywhere, and asked everyone: "I am the second squadron of the second brigade of the 51st wing, has anyone seen the Kiba military Cao?"
"I'm the 2nd Squadron of the 2nd Brigade of the 51st Wing, may I ask if anyone saw Kiba Juncao, I am the 2nd Squadron of the 2nd Brigade of the 51st Wing.
Did anyone see Kiba Juncao," Jiro Ohno repeated his words over and over again in numbness and despair, but no one responded to the boy who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.
The last captain grabbed Jiro Ohno and wiped the blood on his immature face with his hand, took a deep breath and said: "That bastard let such a child go to war, we can die, but to leave hope for Japan, in addition to fighting a war is a war, what do we get, who cares if our domestic family lives or deceives our wives and daughters and sisters" The captain's swearing caused silence in the neighborhood, and almost everyone was watching the unknown captain whining alone.
Suddenly, the captain stood up and shouted, "I'm Hiroshi Kuroda, I've had enough" Kuroda Hiroyoshi pulled Ohno Jiro and stepped on the corpse step by step towards the Chinese defenders, and the Chinese soldiers who were extremely vigilant stood up one after another, and pointed their muzzle bayonets at Kuroda Hiroyoshi.
When Kuroda Hiroyoshi walked less than five meters in front of the Chinese army's position, he suddenly fell to his knees with a pop, and then raised his command knife high above his head, and Ono Jiro on the side also knelt numbly on the ground and put his weapon beside him.
Cai Renjie, who came from below, saw this scene, and found that this was an excellent opportunity with Cai Renjie's insight, so he took the risk to personally come forward and confiscate Kuroda Hiroshi's command knife, and ordered the soldiers to give them water, canned food and food, although the officers and soldiers below were very unwilling, but the military law of the 74th Division was strict, and the prisoners of war who killed them privately would also die to be court-martialed, and those who dared to defy the law were punished Looking at the two gobbling Japanese, the Chinese soldiers who had fought to the death before were a little puzzled, the little devil was just like this, the so-called Great Japanese Imperial Army was nothing more than that, and all the Chinese expeditionary forces ravaged him.
In the Chinese Expeditionary Force, good things may not go out.
But bad things spread quickly, like the words "I rely on", "your uncle's", "ravaging you", "unspoken rules", etc., spread so fast that even the supreme commander Song Yuhang had nothing to do, and his own Chinese Expeditionary Force Teaching Brigade relied on it all day long, and it would be unhappy to change that commander.
Song Yuhang even unofficially claimed that he could rely on it, and no one else was allowed to rely on it, and in desperation, he had no choice but to rectify the atmosphere for the second time in a row, but it was only a symptom but not a cure, after all, what soldiers like is straightforward and enjoyable, and everyone likes popular and smooth oral language.
Kuroda Hiroyoshi and Ohnojiro's actions stunned the Japanese soldiers on the other side, and some of them even began to move, but some of the officers in the team looked very embarrassed, they obviously wanted to, but the education they received warned them that this was an act of no return, and even their families would be harmed.
The Chinese army even had ammunition, and the Japanese soldiers looked at the yellow bullets and black grenades with amazed eyes, and the whitening fish in the distance proved that the dawn had come, and the Japanese soldiers knew that they had no choice but to be killed directly, or to raise their hands and eat canned bread.
Between being full and not being full, people are often extremely realistic.
In particular, there was a condition of life and death with their own lives, and now there were no Japanese soldiers hesitating, and they all dropped their weapons and walked towards the Chinese soldiers with their hands raised.
However, under the nameless heights, there were also Japanese officers who were unwilling to surrender and surrender their weapons and secretly retreated, but there were only a few retreaters.
Okamura Ninji had just sent a staff officer to prepare to go to the nameless heights to supervise the battle, but he saw a scene on the nameless heights in the telescope that shocked him extremely In his encirclement, the attacking troops actually surrendered to the encircled on a large scaleOkamura Ninji rubbed his eyes vigorously, as if he refused to believe what he saw.
However, before Okamura Ninji was hysterical, even bigger blows followed, and the Maori Former Infantry Detachment and the 3rd Independent Tank Brigade were all shattered.
Morihara Osa and Major General Ouchi Kobayashi were also together with Yu Sha, and the 1st Heavy Armored Cavalry Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force had already rushed to Zaojia Town less than 50 kilometers.
Okamura Ninji rolled his eyes and fell to the ground with a thud, dark blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, Ohara Hirotoshi, chief of staff of the Chinese Dispatch Army, hurriedly gave the order to retreat, but he didn't care about the sequence of troops, and he didn't even notify the direction and destination of the retreat, the Japanese army's radio station was actually only equipped to the wing level, except for the infantry brigade with special use, it was not equipped with a radio station, and the troops in offensive mode suddenly turned to the whole line to retreat, it would be a big chaos of unprecedented scale.
What Ohara Hiroshi did not expect was that the order he gave was a high-power radio station on the side of the dispatch army, and the troops entrenched in Wuhan and Hefei would also receive this telegram, and the chain reaction would be a series of subsequent ones.
Ohara Hirotoshi's order is actually equivalent to directly telling the various units to escape as much as possible The restlessness of the Japanese army attracted Zhang Lingfu's attention, and with his command experience, he concluded that the Japanese army was not luring the enemy, but indeed retreating, and it was an unprepared and hasty retreat.
Zhang Lingfu, who had been holding back the evil fire in a small ravine with his back to the Japanese for several days, immediately took advantage of the chaos of the Japanese army's withdrawal to gather his scattered troops Zhang Lingfu knew very well that there could only be one reason for the panicked retreat of the Japanese army, that is, the reinforcements of Chief Song were not far away, coupled with the roar of the gunboat motor in the sky, Zhang Lingfu decided to fight with the little devil in a desperate gamble, except for the fiasco in 41, the troops under his command had not suffered such a big loss from the Japanese, even if in 41 he had more than 20,000 people in a 58th division and a Japanese division regiment, and he also tore a piece of flesh from the little devil.
In the sky, the gunboats poured artillery fire on the retreating Japanese troops, and the 74th Division on the ground shook the weather, and the Japanese army lost its armor and almost gave up all its baggage and artillery, and the Chinese soldiers were surprised by the speed of the Japanese retreat The reinforcements of the 1st Heavy Armored Cavalry Division that arrived scared Zhang Lingfu into a cold sweat, because the continuous attacks of the troops caused the performance of the vehicles to deteriorate. 3 Light tanks passed through the blockade of the Japanese army, and although the Japanese blockade and ambush attacks were defeated, the main force was stalled due to road and fuel problems.
Because one of the Japanese shells hit the fuel truck at the end of the division, causing a continuous and violent explosion, the losses were not large, that is, the reinforcements actually arrived with less than a battalion of tanks.
In the evening, Song Yuhang and Zhang Lingfu converged, and the two generals covered in gunpowder looked at each other and smiled at each other in the sunset, both sides shook hands tightly, Zhang Lingfu looked at Song Yuhang's face and said seriously: "Chief Song, this is not what you promised, what 100,000 troops, just one division, you dare to create this Longtan tiger's den, not afraid of the Japanese surrounding the point to help."
Song Yuhang smiled slightly and said: "In terms of qualifications, your Lingfu is far stronger than me, my brother only has the advantage of personal connections and good luck, and he dares to work hard, I am actually very simple, others are sincere to me, I will dig my heart and be a brother, since I promised you to personally raise an army of 100,000 to relieve the siege, there are no soldiers available, I can only lead my most elite first heavy armored cavalry division to accompany you, and it is worthy of your integrated 74th Division." ” Song Yuhang paused, threw Zhang Lingfu a kettle and continued: "I still don't believe that Devil Xiao's teeth are so good that he can bite my ironclad powerhouse. ” Song Yuhang casually patted the 26E Pershing heavy tank beside him, Zhang Lingfu looked at the 26E Pershing heavy tank whose tracks were deeply sunk into the ground and nodded, and then said: "But this armored division is not omnipotent, just like this American weapon, I thought that I carried a few more base ammunition, which could ensure the needs of half a month's battle, but as a result, I fought for two or three days, if it wasn't for the airdrop, I'm afraid that I, Zhang Lingfu and the integrated 74th Division, would die without a place to be buried." ” Song Yuhang knew that Zhang Lingfu's words hit the nail on head with the fact that the armored division relied too much on logistics and roads, so he nodded and added: "Not only that, if you want the armored division to exert its highest combat effectiveness and show its assault force, you still need absolute air supremacy to do it, otherwise it is easy to destroy it with a Mustang 51 fighter with incendiary bombs, because the leading part of the tank is made of rubber." ” Song Yuhang kicked the front guide wheel with his foot, and then knocked on the tracks of the tank and said: "Not only that, if you encounter a large gunboat formation, I am afraid that the end will be even worse, so the decision of victory or defeat in the future war should be in the air, and the ground battle is just a continuation of the air battle." ” This is, the body of Lu Xing, the commander of the 58th Brigade of the 74th Division, was carried over, Song Yuhang carefully wiped off the blood and soil on his face with his towel for Lu Xing with a serious expression, Zhang Lingfu saw this and tore off his shirt and dipped it in water to scrub Lu Xing's already cold and hard hands, and the officers and soldiers on the side watched quietly, and finally Song Yuhang took off his shirt and covered Lu Xing's face The bodies of the fallen officers and soldiers passed in front of Song Yuhang and Zhang Lingfu for a whole hour without interruption, Song Yuhang persevered to the end despite the soreness and numbness of his body, and Zhang Lingfu, who had inconvenient legs and feet, also continued to insist with the support of the staff officers.
In Song Yuhang's words, this is the respect that the living must give to the dead On the Japanese side, the collapse of the mobile corps led by Okamura Ninji made the last stubborn Japanese army in Nanjing completely lose the will to fight, and they came out of the ruins in twos and threes with their hands raised and surrendered, except for the reorganized 11th Division, which collected a very small number of Japanese prisoners, the rest were directly disposed of by the military police regiment of the headquarters of the expeditionary force in accordance with the rules.
The Japanese troops in Hefei and Wuhan in the fierce battle have also begun to waver, but Song Yuhang did not put the main force of the recovery of Nanjing into the battle between Hefei and Wuhan, but replaced the 5th Mechanized Army and the 7th Mechanized Army with the 39th Army, the 61st Army, the 63rd Army, and the 70th Army, and transferred the three main mechanized armies back to Shanghai for replenishment, while Hu Lian's integrated 11th Division and Fang Tian's integrated 54th Division remained in Nanjing, preparing to cooperate with the Nationalist Government to carry out various tasks before returning the capital.
Song Yuhang's entire energy began to concentrate on the Liaodong Peninsula, he wanted to find a more suitable landing site than Huludao, and after landing, he went straight to Jinzhou, and then waved his troops at Shanhaiguan to cut off the connection between the Japanese Chinese Dispatch Army and its Kwantung Army with a thunderous sweep, so that the weapons produced in the northeast had been transferred from Korea and the hoarded materials could not be supplied to the Chinese Dispatch Army.

Song Yuhang knew very well that the strength of the three mechanized armies was indeed slightly insufficient for this landing, especially in the face of the Japanese Kwantung Army that had restored its strength to the Japanese Kwantung Army close to its heyday by recruiting and replenishing the pro-Japanese Koreans, Song Yuhang's heart was also a little apprehensive, and he knew that he was taking a risk But Song Yuhang knows better that the risk is always proportional to the gain If there are chapter errors, incomplete layout, or copyright doubts, and the content of the work violates relevant laws Please go to the customer service center to report Chapter 506:
