The Japanese wearing mother-proof masks broke through the eight-way defense on the north wall of the village.
Flames shot into the sky inside the half-collapsed wall.
The poisonous smoke finally slowly spread.
The devils should use tear gas gas bombs: red bombs!
Having been exposed to such gas bombs before, Deputy Commander Zhao was not too worried: "Don't panic, just cover your mouth and nose with a towel dipped in water."
Wet towels can filter some particulate smoke, but this time it seems to be different from the past.
Some soldiers who were not well protected immediately started coughing.
After a short time, he immediately squatted on the ground and then slowly fell to the ground and rolled.
Without exception, they all had their hands on their throats, unable to make even a single sound.
Then someone convulsed, and blood began to ooze out from between the mouth, nose, eyes, and ears.
Captain Zhao, who was left behind, was horrified and thought for a while.
He exposed a crack in the wet towel covering his nose, and immediately, a choking smoke entered his nasal cavity.
This is followed by a stinging sensation in the throat.
I immediately had a bad feeling in my heart: mustard gas!
When I went to the division to study, I heard from instructors who had studied abroad that the Japanese had this kind of poisonous gas.
Moreover, the instructor also said that it is not easy to create this kind of poisonous gas, and that the Japanese would only use it against the elite troops of the national army.
It's possible that the Japanese really used this inhumane poisonous gas.
At that moment, he didn't bother to cover his mouth and nose, opened his mouth and shouted loudly: "Everyone retreat to the south of the village"
Without a towel to cover him, he immediately inhaled a large amount of poisonous gas, and his throat seemed to be burned with a hot iron.
He quickly covered his mouth and nose and bent down. His throat hurt so much that he seemed unable to breathe at all.
call out.
A bullet suddenly flew from a distance and accurately hit Deputy Commander Zhao's calf.
The guard next to him quickly stepped forward to help.
call out.
Another bullet flew from a distance and penetrated into the guard's head.
The other two soldiers who were left behind quickly stepped forward to support the leader and prepared to run deeper into the village.
Another rifle shot was heard behind the two men, and the guard was immediately shot in the head and knocked to the ground.
At the same time, gunfire rang out from the south side of the compound, followed by loud gunfire.
The second company commander who came back to respond climbed over the wall and penetrated the house, constantly looking for hidden positions to get closer to Commander Zhao.
With a burst of shouting.
The Japanese who kept climbing up the wall in the north of the village immediately raised their guns and shot at the courtyard indiscriminately, causing dust to fly on the brown courtyard wall and leaving spots with shallow bullet holes.
Deputy leader Zhao didn't care about the injury on his feet and jumped behind the wall on the spot.
Xiao Xin stuck his head out and looked towards the north of the village.
He shouted at the second company commander who wanted to get closer: "Leave me alone. Cough cough. Retreat immediately. Cough cough."
Tears and snot poured down his face, and the stinging pain in his throat made him almost unable to catch his breath. He could breathe, but every time he exhaled and inhaled the air seemed to be burning his entire lungs with high temperature.
Breathing is worse than holding back without taking a breath.
He was just about to be suffocated to death!
The Japanese soldiers kept raising their guns and shooting, and the soldiers who came back to meet Deputy Commander Zhao resolutely carried out the company commander's deployment: "Even if we are all exhausted, we must rescue the commander!"
The team immediately divided into two parts, heading east and west, climbing over the wall and drilling through the house to advance north.
Use the shooting holes in the courtyard wall and alley to shoot at the Japanese approaching the regiment leader's position.
During the encirclement, the Japanese soldiers wearing gas masks and walking through alleys and houses kept firing.
There seemed to be wisps of pungent smell in the air. I couldn't describe that feeling, but the soldiers who responded didn't pay attention. In their opinion, any kind of smoke smell on the battlefield was possible.
A certain soldier suddenly dropped his rifle, held his throat tightly with both hands, and made a roar in his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but found that no sound came out.
He slowly sat down on the spot and rolled on the ground in pain.
It could have taken a few minutes to get close to Commander Zhao, but after more than ten minutes, the soldiers had not yet returned to their positions.
The second company commander immediately became furious: "What are you doing standing still? Hurry up and rush!"
"Company Commander, what's wrong, the Japs used gas bombs, and they seemed to have deliberately used the regiment commander as a bait. The entire vanguard squad died. The Japs are too insidious! The soldiers were hit by the Japs as soon as they took the lead!"
The second company commander waved his hand to interrupt the soldier: "Don't tell me about the difficulty, the regiment leader must be taken out now!"
The battle was extremely difficult, and he was immediately shot in the face as soon as he raised his head.
As soon as he rushed out, he was knocked down by the Japanese on the wall.
Previously, many Japanese were killed by using the wall. Now that the wall is in the hands of the Japanese, the Eighth Route Army is also in a passive position of being beaten.
Throwing a grenade is of little use, as the wall is only so wide, unless the grenade explodes as soon as it lands on the wall.
Fighting back with rifles and guns has no effect. There have been three machine gunners. Each time they can only fire one burst, they will be immediately hit by the hidden Japanese sharpshooters.
The second company commander suddenly felt regretful. Why was he so stupid? The commander told him to get out, so why did he really get out?
Battalion Commander Dai died in enemy shelling.
The political director was shot in the neck by an enemy sharpshooter and was seriously injured. He probably wouldn't be able to survive.
Thinking of this, he once again ordered the soldier next to him: "Charge."
The group leader who was hiding at the entrance of the alley suddenly stood up, and the towel behind his nose disappeared.
He held a Browning pistol in his hand, the muzzle of which was pointed at his own head.
Captain Zhao is very aware of the current situation. The poisonous gas used by the Japanese is definitely not the ordinary poisonous gas used in the past.
The soldiers generally had trembling hands and could not hold their guns steady.
As time went by, the soldiers didn't even have the strength to shoot!
This shows that this angry Japanese captain, in order to ensure the success rate of the attack, not only used ordinary gas bombs, but also used highly toxic "tea bombs"!
This kind of "recruitment" officer who graduated from the army, although his mind was rigid and his technical and tactical skills were not very good, he was defeated by the Eighth Route Army many times in actual combat.
But these guys are all ruthless, inhuman beasts!
These Japanese officers have no basic bottom line as a human being.
They not only bully and beat their subordinates wantonly.
During the war, he allowed his subordinates to rob and kill innocent people to relieve the resentment accumulated from daily bullying.
And when the war is unfavorable, they will not hesitate to use the most toxic gas bombs to get a chance to come back!
Taking advantage of the village's terrain and the blind command of the Japanese captain, the Eighth Route Army in the village actually suppressed the Japanese.
The Japanese began to use highly toxic gas bombs, most likely after the so-called "tea bombs".
After that, the situation took a turn for the worse.
At first, the soldiers only experienced symptoms of discomfort due to irritation of their eyes and upper respiratory tract, followed by congestion of respiratory mucosa, blurred vision, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms.
It can easily be dismissed as a common tear gas symptom.
Dyspnea, chest tightness, difficulty breathing, dizziness, headache, irregular heartbeat, tachycardia, and cherry red skin and mucous membranes soon appeared. At this time, it was too late to discover that something was wrong.
Immediately afterwards, symptoms such as tonic spasm, opisthotonus, and incontinence of urine and feces appeared. The poisoning was so deep that it was difficult to be cured by gods.
In the end, consciousness gradually disappeared, and he could not wake up, falling into a deep coma. His heart rate then failed, his blood pressure stopped, and he died.
Therefore, Captain Zhao believed that the soldiers who came back to meet him must not be allowed to enter the range of the poisonous gas.
A burst of fire erupted from the front of the pistol, and the bullet penetrated the temple at close range.
The body fell down.
"Captain." The second company commander stared with big blood-red eyes and was about to rush out with his shell gun, but was held tightly by two soldiers.
"Company Commander, don't be impulsive." If you go out now, you will die. The soldiers are very aware of the situation in front of them.
