"Baga, we can capture Baijia Town soon. Why should we slow down the attack at this time? This will miss the opportunity."
The captain of the 23rd Japanese Regiment, Fujimura Japanese, was very angry. Under his attack from three sides, the defenders of Baijia Town could no longer hold on.
The east gate of Baijia Town was blasted open by his mountain artillery early, and with the help of two infantry squadrons, they stormed from the north and south gates. Even if the Baijia Army joined the war, it would not help.
Except for some clan soldiers, the rest of the Bai family army did not even have guns. They were armed with long spears and broadswords. How could they fight against the Japanese who were armed with live ammunition?
Therefore, without weapons, they could only hide behind Nancheng, waiting for the Japanese to rush in, and then fight with the Japanese in close combat.
After the South City Gate was breached by the Japanese army, the two sides started a hand-to-hand battle at the South City Gate. Bai Jiajun played a key role at this time.
The Japanese who rushed into the city were stunned to see that there were so many Chinese inside the city gate. They were all dressed in black, with white cloth strips tied around their heads and waists. They were very brave.
The Japanese army suffered heavy losses for a while and almost were not driven out of the city.
But the Japanese soldiers were well-trained after all. After stabilizing their position, they discovered that although these Chinese men in black were brave and fearless of death, their combat capabilities were average.
When they first broke into the city, they were frightened by the number and bravery of the other party.
So in the panic, more than thirty Japanese were beaten to death by the opponent's punches, sticks, and swords.
But when they relied on the city defenses near the city gate to stabilize their position, they discovered that these Chinese people had not received any formal training. They are not much better than ordinary people.
The Japanese's menacing appearance finally appeared, and they became much more calm when fighting with bayonets. The Bai family army and the defenders began to lose support.
The garrison only had one platoon at the south gate. Battalion Commander Zhang, his guards and wounded soldiers all went to support the north gate.
Therefore, there is only one platoon of garrison troops at the south gate, plus the Bai family soldiers.
The defenders suffered more than half casualties when the Japanese succeeded, so the main force at the south gate was only the Bai family army.
At this time, when the Bai family army was in chaos, the Bai family town was in danger, and the Japanese army was about to break through and enter the city.
But what no one expected was that just when the situation in Baijia Town was basically over, the originally aggressive Japanese suddenly withdrew and retreated from the south gate.
Li Guoqiang, who had just received the battle report and was preparing to divide a squad of soldiers to support the South City Gate, also looked confused.
Originally, he thought that Baijia Town could no longer be defended, and that including the East City Gate, it would soon be breached by the Japanese army. But at this moment, the Japanese all retreated to eat.
Is it more important for the Japanese to eat than to attack the city?
Li Guoqiang was puzzled, but this gave him a chance to breathe. While he ordered people to send the wounded down, he also ordered people to strengthen the city defense and block the south gate with sandbags.
But based on this calculation, the number of casualties in this battle was one-half of his total strength.
In other words, if the Japanese army attacks with all its strength, with its current strength, it will not be able to withstand the Japanese army's all-out attack.
Li Guoqiang was frowning, but good news came from Zhou Weiguo. The Second Infantry Group of the Japanese 23rd Regiment has been completely wiped out and three Japanese bombers were shot down.
This exciting news made Li Guo seem to see hope. He excitedly told all the soldiers, half an hour, as long as we persist for another half hour, Baijia Town can be defended.
Battalion Commander Zhang of the garrison also breathed a long sigh of relief. He originally thought that Baijia Town was over this time, but he didn't expect the little devil to be so stupid. He suddenly thought of eating when he was about to capture Baijia Town. It was simply ridiculous. .
Of course, they didn't know that the Japanese had become so stupid that they even gave up a Japanese army brigade just to create conditions for Takeshita Jun's special forces to rob and kill.
Naturally, the Fujimura Japanese couldn't understand it and sent a telegram to the headquarters saying that this was a stupid decision.
But old Japanese Ban Heng thought it was worth it, because that Dragon Boat Festival had caused considerable trouble to the empire, and he had the latest secret code in his hand.
Ban Heng, the Japanese, believed the risk was worth taking.
But he probably never dreamed that there was not only a Dragon Boat Festival in China, but also a Zhou Weiguo. He annihilated the Japanese second brigade in a completely overwhelming manner, although he also paid the price of nearly two hundred casualties. However, such a large ratio of battle losses still made this battle a complete victory.
Zhou Weiguo ordered the soldiers to quickly clean the battlefield, load all the weapons and equipment left by the Japanese army into vehicles, and prepare to take them to Baijia Town.
Zhou Weiguo believed that after a morning of fierce fighting, Baijia Town must have consumed a lot of weapons and ammunition, so these weapons and equipment were enough to keep Baijia Town going for a while.
However, after a while, Zhou Weiguo didn't know how long they could hold on, because they did not have a dedicated baggage force, and they only brought so much weapons and ammunition. Once you run out of ammunition, you will be in a very passive situation.
So at this time, he thought of sending electricity to the headquarters.
However, the original secret code has been leaked. Once the power is sent back, the Japanese army will definitely know it in advance.
So this is a very vexing problem.
He could only hope that Dragon Boat Festival would arrive soon and solve the trouble they were encountering now.
"Hurry up, move fast."
Zhou Weiguo shouted orders, but only his first and second battalions were in action.
Soldiers from the Independence Regiment are helping the people clean up the remains of the villagers.
There were more than 400 original residents in Xiaoyangzhuang, but after a massacre, only 113 people were left alive. The rest were killed by the Japs. And especially in one courtyard, more than 80 people were killed.
They were driven into this courtyard. The crazy Japanese threw grenades into the courtyard, and then after the explosion, they rushed in with bayonets and stabbed the surviving civilians indiscriminately.
The whole courtyard was filled with rivers of blood, and the blood flowed down the door into the street.
In a dead end of the village, the soldiers found another twenty people. They were driven into the alley and shot dead one by one by the Japanese.
While cleaning the bodies, each soldier could see the fear and despair they felt before dying.
The rage of revenge once again ignited in the hearts of every warrior.
In their hearts, the little devil is no longer a human being. They cannot be measured by the concept of human beings.
They are just a bunch of murderous beasts. Not worth being forgiven at all.
At the same time, the people in the village finally cried wildly.
They were crying so loudly that their sound could be heard five miles away.
They cried out the pain, grievance, and anger they had suppressed deep in their hearts. they. Weeping so much, crying so hard! ...
