Of course, Yoshida Naganobu couldn't figure it out, and he would never have the chance to figure it out, because he was going to die and leave this violent and bloody world forever.
Blood slowly flowed down from his forehead, his eyes were slowly turning black, and his body was slowly getting colder.
Four hundred meters away, the "culprit" who shot Naganobu Yoshida looked cold and did not feel ashamed that he had shot and killed a person.
Because he was facing a group of enemies, a group of cold-blooded murderers, and he knew better than anyone else what crimes these devils committed in Nanjing three months later!
Therefore, for Zhang Tianhai, every time he kills a Japanese, he will save the life of a Nanjing citizen in the future. If the opponent is the Japanese Sixth Division, he will risk his life to severely damage this division, even if he pays for it himself The price is about to die!
"boom!"
After a gunshot, Zhang Tianhai immediately pulled the gun, loaded the bullet, and prepared to hunt the next target.
Different from ordinary soldiers, Zhang Tianhai's target is an officer, preferably an officer above the junior rank. If not, then it can only be a lieutenant-level officer. After all, there are only a few junior rank officers.
The Japanese offensive was very fierce. This was an attack in which the Takeshita Regiment invested most of its troops and all its artillery firepower.
The distance of four hundred meters is neither long nor short, and can be crossed in one go. Ever since the 212th Regiment voluntarily gave up its outer positions, Zhang Tianhai's first battalion's forward position has become a confrontation. It was at a sharp angle, so some of the Japanese troops focused their attention here.
The active retreat of the 212th Regiment exposed the flanks of the forward position of the 1st Battalion of the 216th Regiment to Japanese firepower.
The offensive launched by nearly 2,000 men was quite huge. The 1st Battalion of the 216th Regiment finally couldn't withstand it and began to abandon its peripheral positions. They placed their main force in the second-line position.
The sound of gunfire was extremely fierce, accompanied by the soldiers' shouts of killing.
To be fair, Zhang Tianhai really didn't want to give up the peripheral positions, because he failed to hold the enemy on the front line. Then when the enemy established a firm foothold, he would be greeted by brutal street fighting, and he lost a large buffer distance for shooting kills. .
But what if you don’t want to give up? There was nothing we could do about it, because the position... couldn't be defended!
Zhang Tianhai is not the kind of person who has short-sightedness and has immediate worries. He has already set up the second-line position, and it is a standard civil engineering structure.
To put it in a very straightforward way, Zhang Tianhai set up the main front line to fight with the Japanese army here. However, what he never expected was that the Japanese army actually captured it in the first charge. the outer position.
The Japanese standing divisions truly deserve their reputation and are indeed a military force that has left a strong mark on history.
Except for the peripheral positions, Zhang Tianhai placed almost all his hopes on the second-line positions. If the second-line positions were lost, then the first battalion's defense zone would be almost undefendable.
All in all, there is no room for failure in the second-line position!
According to Zhang Tianhai's original plan, it was to use peripheral positions to hold off the Japanese troops for a while, at least to gain some time and to be able to hold on until night. By night, it would be time for Zhang Tianhai to lead his troops to regain the lost ground!
However, the situation is unpredictable, and the loss of peripheral positions also disrupted Zhang Tianhai's position.
"Come on! I must defend the second line of position!" Zhang Tianhai's face turned pale. He knew how serious the consequences would be if the position was lost!
If his position is lost, then the Japanese army can take advantage of it. If all the positions are lost, then from the sky, it will be that the Japanese army forms a huge pincer shape against the 212th Regiment, which can form a huge pincer against the 212th Regiment from both sides. Encirclement.
If an encirclement is formed, the 212th Regiment may have to fight tooth and nail to break through. If not, the 212th Regiment will only be chewed to pieces!
Once the 212th Regiment is eaten, the south of Shanghai will fall into the hands of the Japanese army. The formation of a north-south encirclement will very likely lead to the more than 100,000 national troops in Shanghai being eaten by the Japanese army.
If this is really the case, then Zhang Tianhai will be an eternal sinner of the Chinese nation, the kind who will never give up even if he is killed!
This time, Zhang Tianhai put his old company, the Second Company, on board, and Sun Hong's Third Company served as the reserve team.
The second-line position was Zhang Tianhai's hope, and it could not fall into the hands of the Japanese again.
Facts have proved that the Japanese commanders are not the kind of brave men who launch an attack rashly when their footing is not stable. On the contrary, after capturing the position, they are waiting for the backup troops to come up.
"Tum! Tum! Tum..."
The grenade shells hit the first battalion's second-line position with a screaming sound.
Fortunately, the main fortification structure of the second-line position was made of concrete, otherwise there would have been many casualties.
The grenade weapon, in other words, is an "ultralight mortar" that can be carried with you and provide effective fire support for forward operations.
For Zhang Tianhai, close support weapons such as grenades are also a headache. He knows how to avoid them to reduce casualties. However, the number of enemy equipment is too much, so much that it was almost lifted when it was blown up. Don't start.
Among the German weapon masters, there is no shortage of rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and ammunition. The only thing missing is this effective close support weapon.
The Japanese army consumed artillery shells to suppress the Chinese army, not for the purpose of attacking, but to wait for follow-up reinforcements to come up, and then launch a general attack on the enemy's positions!
Seeing that the outer position on the opposite side was captured in one fell swoop, Kuroiwa Yuichi finally breathed a sigh of relief: at least he didn't have to worry about being ordered to commit suicide by Captain Takeshita to thank the Emperor.
As for whether it was successful with the support of Kaichi Muto's Second Battalion, it doesn't matter. What's important is that Lieutenant Colonel Kuroiwa's life was finally saved in half...
"Order the troops at the front to prepare for an attack. Don't give the Chinese army a chance to breathe!" Heiyan Liuyi said to the signal soldiers beside him with a sullen face.
"Yes!" the signal soldier responded, waving the flag vigorously.
This is a semaphore!
However, before the signal soldier could finish conveying the flag message, a bullet hit his chest, and he fell down!
Heiyan Liuyi's expression changed drastically and he shouted wildly: "Lie down! Lie down! The enemy has a sharpshooter!!!"
Following Kuroiwa Liuyi's order, the people around him quickly fell down.
At this time, the concept of sniper was not so common. There was only the term sharpshooter. It was not until a year or two later that the name sniper officially appeared...
