"Puff puff puff puff..."
The sound of bayonets piercing flesh, hand-to-hand combat is the cruelest, and the old Japanese's stabbing skills are very high. In less than a few minutes, there are only a few khaki figures left on the battlefield...
"Ta-ta-ta..."
"Boom boom boom..."
"Kill!"
At the moment when the second battalion commander fell, the third regiment commander led the regiment and the final reserve team and rushed to the position in time, catching the Japanese by surprise and killing hundreds of Japanese in an instant;
With the addition of hundreds of fresh troops, the battle between the two sides once again entered a stalemate.
"boom!"
"boom!"
One by one, the Bagui men fired the cluster grenades on their bodies and pounced on the Japanese without hesitation...
If you can't fight with a bayonet, just fight hard. In the face of cluster grenades, no one can bear a piece of shrapnel!
Under the desperate tactics of the reinforcements, the Japanese fell one by one. Finally they could no longer hold on anymore and retreated like a tide. The position was once again held!
The smoke is thick, and with the reinforcements from the regiment headquarters and a company's reserve team, there are only more than 200 people left on the position. This is the last seed of the third regiment!
The third regiment leader had a bitter look on his face. Two days ago, they were a full regiment of nearly 3,000 people.
"Brothers, get down to the trenches and defend against artillery fire!"
As soon as the officers and soldiers of the Third Regiment jumped out of the trench, the sound of Japanese shells breaking through the air was heard;
Dozens of artillery shells from Black Crow Crow came over, and the huge explosion caused waves of blood rain. The ground was shaking, but the three regiments were still motionless on the position!
"Boom boom boom..."
"Boom boom boom..."
After several rounds of artillery fire, several Japanese Type 95 vehicles rumbled over, followed by the Iron Bastard followed by three to four hundred Japanese soldiers.
Facing the rumbling Iron Bastard, the face of the third regiment leader was as calm as water. A young soldier silently tied a bundle of grenades to his body. He had just celebrated his fifteenth birthday. This would be the last glory in his life. !
This will be the last battle of the three regiments. There are no heroic words, but only the determination to silently strap the bomb to the body——
I die, Guosheng!
The third regiment leader took out a pack of cigarettes from his body, took out one, lit it, and threw the others to his brothers on the battlefield. This would be the last cigarette in his life...
"boom!"
"boom!"
"Boom boom boom..."
When the Japanese Iron Bastards rushed to the Third Regiment's position, one by one, resolute figures got under the tracks of the Iron Bastards one after another;
"Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta..."
More death squads fell under the Japanese machine guns, and the khaki color on the position disappeared like the naked eye...
"boom!"
With a loud noise, the last Iron Bastard was blown to its knees, and the three regiments were also submerged in the yellow shit of the Japanese.
A few hundred meters away, Commander Zhong silently put down his telescope. The third regiment was gone, but the 173rd Division was still there!
After the Japanese broke through the defense line of the third regiment, they made a slight adjustment and roared towards the core position of the 173rd Division;
This is the last position of the 173rd Division. The remaining troops of the 1st and 2nd Regiments are guarding the position together with the division headquarters. People are in the position, and they have no way out!
"Boom boom boom..."
The Japanese artillery fire arrived as promised, and the battlefield was filled with gunpowder smoke. The Baguizi soldiers lay in the trenches and silently endured the rain of artillery fire.
"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"
After a day of fierce fighting, the Morita Alliance had already suffered more than half of its casualties. This was the toughest unit they had ever encountered, and it was also the one with the heaviest casualties.
The Third Division, also known as the Nagoya Division, was founded in 1888. Its predecessor was the Nagoya Town Station established in 1873. It was one of the first six Class A divisions to be organized.
Among all the Japanese divisions, they are definitely among the top three in terms of combat effectiveness, but they are not as famous as the Fifth and Sixth Divisions.
Colonel Morita watched the warriors of his unit rush to the Chinese position, and then watched him being driven down like a tide, and his corpses were thrown on the ground!
"Bagaya Road, the glory of the Nagoya Division has been lost to this group of trash!"
"Okabe-kun, this is just a local army of China, but it is die-hard. Do you know his origin?"
Morita continued to scold him, but still asked Lieutenant Colonel Jiro Okabe, the senior staff officer of the wing. Okabe graduated from Japanese Army University and was well-informed, so he should be able to give him the answers he needed.
Okabe met the commander and asked about the origin of the Chinese troops on the opposite side. He happened to know a little bit about it, so he showed off in front of the commander Kuohaka:
"Your Excellency, Captain, under Huaxia, the National Army's equipment and training are the best, but its fighting will is not higher than that of the local army;
The enemy 173rd Division on the opposite side belongs to the 84th Army of the Guangxi Army. Its predecessor is a part of the 7th Army. The 7th Army is known as the Steel Army of China. It has a very tenacious fighting will and can fight tough battles. It is a true steel division, not a soft-footed shrimp. "
After hearing this, Morita nodded and said:
"Yoshi, Sodersnai, and Okabe-kun, then we must completely eliminate this army, and we must not leave any seeds for them!"
"Order the artillery brigade to continue bombarding and shoot out all the artillery shells!
After the next round of attack, I will report the victory to the division commander at the Chinese headquarters. "
"Hey!"
Okabe Jiro took the order and left. Half an hour later, the fierce bombardment continued.
Just when Master Zhong was about to lead his troops to fight the Japanese to the last drop of blood, the telegram from the commander's department was finally sent!
The main force has broken through the encirclement and jumped to the outside. The 173rd Division's blocking mission has been successfully completed;
Commander Zhong was overjoyed and said to the Chief of Staff:
"Chief of Staff, notify the troops to alternate cover and withdraw from the battle, and move to the depths of Tongbai Mountain!"
The remaining troops of the 173rd Division began to retreat, but unfortunately the Japanese did not intend to let them go easily;
Fortunately, before leaving the position, there was a sense of energy that supported them to persevere. Once the order to retreat was given, the troops began to get confused and wanted to evacuate the position quickly.
When Colonel Morita saw that the 173rd Division was in chaos, he thought that the Chinese people no longer had the patience to retreat step by step, and immediately issued a general attack order.
After Commander Zhong led his troops to withdraw from the position, they began to break through. Morita's regiment pursued them with all their strength, but the remnants of the 173rd Division could no longer organize resistance;
Fortunately, the Morita Regiment also suffered heavy casualties and lacked strength, so the 173rd Division still had some outstanding personnel.
On the 9th, the 173rd Division once again encountered a large number of Japanese soldiers on the way back. A fierce battle broke out in a hurry between the two sides, resulting in heavy casualties;
Commander Zhong led only more than 50 of his remnant troops to Cang Tai Town, and was violently attacked by more than a thousand Japanese cavalry. The situation was very critical and there was not much ammunition left.
Master Zhong saw that there was nothing he could do and said loudly to the others:
"As soldiers, when this critical moment of life and death cannot occur, it is appropriate to fight with all our strength. If it is too late, we should save a bullet and kill ourselves. Don't let the enemy get it and shame our country."
After finishing speaking, he used his last bullet to commit suicide and die for his country at the age of 41. Other personnel also died heroically.
Except for a few members of the 173rd Division who broke through the encirclement, all others died heroically for their country, fulfilling their solemn oath when they left Guangxi with practical actions!
I die, Guocun!
