"Something happened, Your Excellency, something happened."
The sergeant who led the team to capture the hostages ran back with a look of horror on his face.
"What happened?"
Takao Noma, who was commanding the resistance against the US military offensive, asked impatiently.
"Gendarmerie, shoot at us, one of us is dead and one is wounded on the spot."
"What?"
Noma Takao was shocked.
Immediately, he finally reacted:
be cheated!
There must be something wrong with those gendarmerie guys.
If Meng Shaoyuan or Li Zhifeng were here and heard Takao Noma's thoughts, they would probably blurt out the same sentence:
You're such a fucking genius that you finally figured out something was wrong.
Noma Takao began to panic.
Hostages are the most powerful weapon for him now.
Once this weapon is lost, it is impossible to resist the Americans with their own manpower and firepower.
"Kakuda, take the people and recapture the hostages immediately, recapture the hostages!"
Noma Takao roared.
"Hai!"
Sergeant Kakuda was full of murderous intent and immediately organized his troops.
For the Japanese army, this will be the key to whether they can hold the post and telecommunications building.
A rare scene occurred on the battlefield.
The U.S. military launched a desperate attack outside.
And inside the defensive position, the defenders are also desperately launching attacks!
Both sides are fighting to the death.
It was Lee and the seven people under his command who built the first line of defense on the hostage floor.
To be honest, although these Filipino guerrillas were very brave, they could not compare with the Japanese army in terms of combat quality and experience.
As soon as Sergeant Tsunoda came up, he asked his men to suppress the opponent with firepower, while he selected two strong ones and threw two grenades towards the upstairs.
Originally, if we were to fight from a high position, the advantage should be on the advantage side.
But they were unprepared for the Japanese attack style.
Two grenades fell, leaving Leigh and his men defenseless.
In the two explosions, two guerrillas died on the spot and one was seriously injured.
In other words, there was only one meeting, and half of his men were lost.
Lee's eyes were red.
The order he received was to stay here for ten minutes.
But just how long had passed before he suffered such heavy losses.
"Fight, fight!"
Leigh shouted.
But on the battlefield, victory is not achieved simply by having a loud voice.
A guerrilla just stuck his head out to take a look, and was shot in the head with a "bang".
As a result, Li lost another subordinate.
Faced with this situation, Lee was helpless.
Of the seven people, three are dead and one has lost his fighting ability.
There are three people left.
Sergeant Tsunoda also obviously found that the firepower above was insufficient, and immediately ordered to suppress the fire while ordering a forced charge.
Now, time is of the essence!
How can we resist three people?
The Japanese troops rushed forward with a cry of "Ao Ao".
At this moment, a guerrilla suddenly took out a grenade, shouted, and stood up.
His original intention was to throw the grenade out with all his strength.
But the stupidest thing he did was stand up.
In an already relatively narrow space, this almost makes oneself a living target.
Before he could throw it out, several bullets punched several bloody holes in his body.
Before he died, he threw the grenade.
But there was no explosion.
Because he didn't make the last move:
Bang the grenade.
They pretended to be military police and used all Japanese military equipment, including grenades, which were Japanese Type 97 grenades.
The Japanese army was actually one of the first countries to invent grenades. As early as the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese army achieved good results using homemade grenades made from artillery shells, which caused the Russians to suffer a great loss. Therefore, Japan after the war The invention of individual grenades, also known as hand grenades, began.
Of course, before the Japanese army invented the grenade at the beginning, they discovered that some soldiers were using it accidentally, which caused a lot of casualties.
Coupled with the complex conditions on the battlefield, grenades were easily triggered accidentally, causing considerable casualties. Later, the Japanese army also realized this.
Therefore, during World War II, the Japanese army began to mass-equip a new type of grenade, the Type 97 grenade. This grenade added an additional layer of insurance to the original fuse.
Ordinary grenades can be thrown after pulling the cord directly.
However, the Japanese Army's Type 97 grenade had a safety added at the beginning of its design, so that when soldiers using this grenade used it, they had to open the second safety of the grenade after pulling the wire.
That's right, this second layer of insurance is to knock it on the helmet.
Because after pulling the fuse, you only open the first safety of the grenade, and the firing pin will not trigger the detonation.
Why bang on the helmet?
Because it’s convenient!
Although such a defense mechanism can make soldiers more secure when using grenades, this situation also pits soldiers.
Because when the war situation is urgent, the soldiers who throw grenades have no time to knock them.
When throwing grenades, many Japanese soldiers forgot to knock them and threw them out. This caused a very embarrassing thing.
Therefore, let alone this guerrilla, even the Japanese army would forget to kowtow.
This was equivalent to giving away his life in vain, but it did not cause any losses to the Japanese army.
"Walk!"
Seeing that only the last two people, including himself, were left, Li knew that he couldn't hold on here at all:
"Go to the second line of defense, hurry up!"
He almost shouted and drove the guerrilla away.
He didn't leave.
The mission he received was to stay here for ten minutes.
But?
It's not even three minutes now.
He has no face to see Li Zhifeng!
Besides, his family members had all died at the hands of the Japanese, and he wanted to fight with the Japanese for his life.
Compared with his companions, Li, who has received training from the Americans, has a certain degree of tactical literacy.
On the battlefield, sometimes there are many people, which may not necessarily be effective.
Especially in a place with a small space, with a group of people who barely know how to fight, it will be impossible to perform.
Now, only Lee is left.
He raised the gun without aiming, and there was a "bang" shot.
Although he didn't aim, the space was too narrow. Instead, he shot and wounded a Japanese soldier who was rushing up desperately.
This immediately hindered the Japanese army's progress.
Then, Lee took out another grenade, pulled out the fuse, knocked it on the ground, and then threw it out without looking at it.
"boom"!
The screams and angry cries of the Japanese soldiers were heard.
One's battle is no longer messy and purposeless.
This actually worked wonders.
Leigh smiled.
Yes, it is simply impossible to stay here until the specified time on your own.
But my current task is to delay it as long as I can.
One minute, one second!
He looked behind him. Then he laughed again.
There, in the corridor, a temporary position has been built with tables, chairs and sundries.
