The appearance of the Third Company made the Japanese completely desperate. Many Japanese did not even run away, but just stood there and let the Chinese kill them;
When faced with a desperate situation, more Japs began to go crazy, carrying guns and launching suicidal charges against the hail of bullets. Only a handful of Japs chose to try their luck from the flanks.
Seeing that he was helpless, Major Shinohara used the tortoise box in his hand to shoot himself in the head. He was lucky, and the bullet did not jam, and he was sent into the ghost club with one bullet.
There were fewer and fewer Japanese in the encirclement, and the officers and soldiers of the independent battalion became more and more excited as they fought. The process of beating the drowned dogs was absolutely refreshing, and they did not feel tired at all.
Annihilation battles are what boost the morale of a unit the most. This is what the current independent battalion is like. Everyone is very excited. Some people even feel no pain even when they are injured. They have been charging tirelessly, chasing all the Japanese. I gave up and ran away. I sat down on the ground and killed you if you wanted...
At the independent battalion headquarters, Luo Ying was still sleeping in a very shameless manner. Li Shuo, who had finished his business, rushed in excitedly. He arrived before anyone arrived and shouted loudly:
"Battal Commander, it's so fun! The devil got into the pocket——"
Staff Officer Huang from the battalion headquarters made a silent gesture, indicating that the battalion commander was catching up on his sleep. Li Shuo closed his mouth, but his heart felt like ten cat claws were scratching him, and he couldn't calm down at all...
"Okay, stop wandering around outside and come in. I've been woken up by your loud voice a long time ago."
Li Shuo responded excitedly, and then rushed into the command post. Luo Ying had been waiting for him in high spirits, and this sleep completely eliminated his fatigue;
In order to win this battle, he stayed awake all day and night, worked out an almost perfect plan, and defeated a large Japanese army with a battalion in his hand.
"Battal Commander, the flying thunder cannon is so powerful. It can completely wipe out these Japs. It is all due to the power of the flying thunder cannon. It really exploded a large area."
Li Shuo wasted no time in praising the Thunder Cannon. He really did not hesitate to praise it. This thing was used in the right place and at the right time, and its effect was not inferior to that of several heavy cannons.
Luo Ying was not interested in listening to him boasting about the thunder cannon. This thing has been tested in time and space. The reputation of "heartless cannon" is not just blown away. It is a must-have artifact for time-travelers to fight devils!
He was more concerned about the battle situation and the casualties of the independent battalion. After all, there were thousands of Japs. With a thousand men ambushing a thousand men, he was sure of defeating him, but annihilating them all——
"Battal Commander, except for a few Japs who took advantage of the chaos and escaped, all the other Japs are dead!
957 people below the battalion commander, Major Shinohara, were killed, 1 armored vehicle was captured, 5 were destroyed, 2 Type 92 infantry guns, 3 Type 94 mortars, 5 Type 92 heavy machine guns, 22 light machine guns, and grenades were captured 27 barrels, more than 600 long and short guns, and other materials piled up like mountains;
I also got a good thing, guess what-"
Li Shuo was in a good mood and deliberately betrayed the Japanese. Luo Ying said without thinking:
"Isn't it just a radio station? Why guess?"
Li Shuo immediately protested:
"It's boring. You can just pretend."
Luo Ying was too lazy to chat with him and asked him a question he was more concerned about:
"Are there many casualties among the brothers?"
"Not much, except for the supplementary first and second companies who suffered dozens of casualties in the process of blocking the enemy. Almost all the Japanese behind were beaten and did not form effective resistance, so the casualties of each company were not large;
The wounded have been properly placed. The total number of seriously wounded and killed brothers is 78, and 163 are lightly wounded. Most of the lightly wounded can recover within a week. "
The annihilation of a Japanese brigade resulted in less than 300 casualties, which Luo Ying could accept. After all, most of the lightly wounded soldiers could recover and return to the team, and the absolute losses did not exceed 100. This was the benefit of fighting an annihilation war.
The battlefield was under our own control, and a large number of wounded could be treated. However, the majority of the wounded, the Japs, fell into the hands of the independent battalion, and they all turned into deaths in the end. Luo Ying had no extra medicine to waste on them.
Li Shuo was becoming more and more reliable in his work now. Some things were solved on the battlefield. He did not bring the problems back to him as the battalion commander for decision-making. After all, it would be bad for his reputation if word spread that he ordered the treatment of the Japanese wounded.
“These Japs are really stubborn, they won’t even surrender to the wounded, and I can’t even take a few prisoners if I want!
That's it, report the victory to the division headquarters. Don't report the scrapped weapons among the seizures. Just deal with them according to the old rules.
In addition, some of the captured light machine guns were selected for the supplementary company and the baggage company, one for each squad. Although supply is inconvenient, it is better than nothing.
The grenadiers are given to the main company, two to three per platoon. The division commander doesn't like these grenades, so we use them ourselves;
Two 92 infantry guns and armored vehicles were handed over to the division headquarters. The heavy machine guns and trophies were handed over to 30% according to the regulations. The excess was disposed of. We can't take them with us now in wartime..."
Luo Ying is now familiar with handling these things. Now that they are directly under the division, there are two fewer mothers-in-law above their heads;
As long as they pay enough to the division headquarters, the rest is theirs. Now they have to support more than 300 additional people. It will definitely not be possible without money. This is also normal in the national army.
At the division headquarters, Sun Yuanliang was not in a very good mood. The meat grinder of Luodian was handed over to him, and it had to be filled with flesh and blood;
The 262nd Brigade only fought for half a day and suffered casualties in one battalion. He felt that he had been tricked by Chief Chen and Luo Youqing.
The two of them sang together and put him on the gunfire. It was much harder to defend Luodian than to recapture Luodian. Now his intestines were green with regret. If he had known this, it would be better to choose "attack" and make a deal——
"I'm still a bit thin-skinned..."
The others pretended not to hear, but at this moment, the Chief of Staff of the 88th Division walked in excitedly, with a smile on his face, which made Sun Yuanliang frown;
He was annoyed. If the chief of staff couldn't give him a clear reason, he would get angry.
Zhang Xianghao did not give Sun Yuanliang a chance to get angry, but reported to him loudly:
"Master, what a great victory! The Independent Battalion wiped out a Japanese brigade that had circled back to the flank of the 262nd Brigade, killing thousands of Japanese, destroying 4 tanks and capturing one!"
Sun Yuanliang didn't believe his ears. They were in a large group. When did the Japanese become so easy to fight?
"Chief of Staff Zhang, there is no such thing as joking in the military. There are some jokes that cannot be made!"
"Teacher, I can't lie. They also seized a radio station. Luo Ying sent a company commander to report it and asked if he could leave that radio station with him. By the way, he could send a coder to them so that they can do it in the future. It will be convenient to contact the division headquarters.”
Sun Yuanliang was immediately happy and said immediately:
"Let the company commander come over. I want to understand the situation in detail. This is no joke."
Chief of Staff Zhang had thought of this a long time ago, so he asked Li Shuo, who had come to report the victory, to stay outside and wait. If the commander really wanted to verify it in person, he asked a staff officer to bring him over.
After Li Shuo entered the division headquarters, he first saluted several officers, but was stopped by Sun Yuanliang and asked directly:
"Okay, tell me the specific situation."
