Zhang Tianhai gave an order, and more than 900 death squads set off under the leadership of Zhang Tianhai and several Wuhu soldiers.
Not only were the officers and soldiers in front carrying light machine guns, but Zhang Tianhai himself also carried a light machine gun.
In order to be able to supply supplies directly on the battlefield, Zhang Tianhai did not let the officers and soldiers of the penetration regiment carry the Czech light machine guns used by the German weapon divisions, but instead used the large formal light machine guns of the Japanese army.
In the dark night, nine hundred suicide squads wearing gray and blue military uniforms and white cuffs on their right arms were advancing along the main road where the 83rd officers and soldiers fought desperately.
"Wait a minute, are you walking along the main road? Is there any other path to take?" As he walked, Zhang Tianhai felt something was wrong. He didn't want this death squad to be on the main road with the Japanese army. Hard fight.
He could carve out a bloody path by fighting hard, but along the way, his nine hundred men would not have many left, and they would be wiped out in a very short period of time.
If you really want to get close to the Japanese headquarters, you can't be so reckless, you can only use surprise troops!
Several soldiers from Wuhu looked at each other, and finally one soldier spoke and said: "Captain, I know where we can go directly to the county government, but now that there are ruins everywhere, I'm not sure that we can." Did he kill him there?"
This is a very difficult choice. If you make the wrong choice, there is a risk of mission failure.
"Okay, then take the trail!" Zhang Tianhai gritted his teeth and made his choice. From the 250-strong spy company he had when he first stayed in Nanjing, there are now less than 40 people left. He doesn't want to The troops that had gone through so much hardship to be brought out were buried in Wuhu.
The mission must be completed, but it was definitely not a joke with the lives of the more than 700 people in the penetration regiment, so he could only take a gamble.
The soldier from Wuhu directly led Zhang Tianhai and others into a long and narrow path. Logically speaking, such a road is not suitable for marching at all.
But we have already rushed here, and there is no reason to return, so we can only bite the bullet and rush forward.
There was a burst of hurried footsteps on the dark and narrow path, and Zhang Tianhai rushed directly to the front of the team with his hands in hand. He was confident that his eyes were good and his reactions were quick, not to mention that this was the time to grab time.
The fighting on the main road was still very fierce. The Eighty-third Army was desperately advancing into the city. Both the Japanese and the Chinese troops suffered heavy casualties.
The Cantonese army brothers wearing British-style steel helmets and gray-blue military uniforms are rushing forward desperately!
"Dului Lumou! Shit eaters, Japanese ghosts!" After a Cantonese soldier fired a shot, he picked up the prepared grenade at his feet and did not forget to curse when he threw it forward. Say something like mother.
"Boom!!!"
The grenade exploded after being thrown behind the Japanese position.
The shock wave carried the broken iron pieces of the grenade and shot them towards the Japanese and puppet soldiers behind the bunker, causing screams for a moment.
"Come on, brothers, knock the dogs over the house (and beat these bastards back to their hometown)!!" the grassroots officers of the Guangdong Army shouted in Cantonese, their hometown dialect.
Soon, the Cantonese army officers and soldiers followed the officer's order and launched another attack.
At this moment, the Japanese and puppet troops who were still alive hiding behind the bunker came out to shoot again. The Guangdong officers and soldiers were unable to dodge, and suddenly more than a dozen officers and soldiers fell in a pool of blood.
The short span of more than ten meters is like a chasm, out of reach.
Scenes like this are very common on the battlefield - this is war, so cruel that every step forward requires a price of blood!
Perhaps for senior military officers and politicians, war is just a number, but for middle- and lower-level officers, war is a terrible meat grinder, and countless officers and soldiers die on the battlefield every day!
"Military seat, the officers and soldiers at the front have suffered heavy casualties. Should we continue to advance!?" Li Jiang, commander of the 154th Division, whose face was already blackened by gunpowder smoke, ran back and reported.
Deng Longguang gritted his teeth and said: "We will continue to fight despite heavy casualties. The battle has reached this point. Both we and the Japanese army are holding on. When Zhang Tianhai's death squad launches a fatal blow, our battle will , then victory!"
"Yes! Military seat!" Seeing that Army Commander Deng Longguang's attitude was so determined, Li Jiang could not say anything more and had to lead his troops to fight hard.
When encountering each other on a narrow road, the brave will win, and sometimes all it takes is momentum.
…
Chen Sansheng is an ordinary soldier in the third battalion of the fourth regiment of the "Manchukuo" army. Like most of the officers and soldiers in the regiment, he is also from the Northeast.
In troubled times, human life is as cheap as a dog. If you can get a bite of food, that is a very happy thing.
Therefore, with such a purpose in mind, he joined this team that was disgusted and hated by the common people and was known as the "Er Gouzi" and "Puppet Army", and then became a "Glorious Soldier" "Puppet army.
Even if he is scolded by the common people, this is already a common thing for Chen Sansheng: as long as he is not forced to work hard, he can say anything, no matter how hard the training is, it is still worth it.
But if you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet. How can a soldier not go to the battlefield? Ever since, after the Battle of Songhu broke out, the Japanese army began to organize this front-line army of the "Manchukuo" army.
Unfortunately, Chen Sansheng's unit was also transferred.
Chen Sansheng believed that even after entering the battlefield, the Japanese army would use them but also guard against them just like they did in the Northeast.
But in fact this is not the case. The Japanese army suffered heavy casualties on the front line. Especially after entering the Nanjing battlefield, the Tenth Army led by Yanagawa Heisuke encountered desperate resistance from the Chinese army, especially in emergencies like the 18th Division. The casualties caused by the establishment of a Type B division were even more severe.
After all, the combat power of the Type B division is always inferior to that of the standing division that exists like a trump card.
If a reserve force is temporarily formed and then deployed on the battlefield, can it compare with an active force like the Sixth Division?
The difference is not only in weapons and equipment, but also in training and cooperation between various regiments and arms.
If you don’t believe me, you can refer to the early stage of the Battle of Wuhan. Just one division of the Sixth Division marched westward alone, and despite the desperate obstruction of more than a dozen Chinese armies, they still smashed open the east gate of Wuhan!
In addition to the standing divisions having such combat capabilities, can Type B divisions have such combat capabilities? There is no comparison at all!
Therefore, when the 18th Division suffered heavy casualties and was short of troops, Matsui Iwane simply handed over the third and fourth regiments of the four puppet army regiments to the command of Ushijima Sadao.
Ever since, Chen Sansheng appeared on the Wuhu battlefield southwest of Nanjing.
If Ushijima Sadao was determined to defend Wuhu County and the Sanshan area without any impulse, then the Guangdong Army Deng Longguang's command, Zhang Tianhai and others would not be able to do anything to him.
It's just that the people's hearts are not enough. Seeing Hisao Tani, Ogisu Rihei and others on the Eastern Front battlefield winning one after another and capturing Nanjing, Ushijima Sadao thought about breaking out the penetration regiment from Nanjing. The troops were eaten, which gave Zhang Tianhai and others an opportunity.
Hiding in this long and narrow corridor, Chen Sansheng was really nervous. This was his first time to be exposed to war as a soldier.
Chen Sansheng's third company was arranged by Major Miyazaki of the Japanese army to guard the passage here to prevent sneak attacks by the Chinese army.
Two hundred meters behind Chen Sansheng's third company, a Japanese squad of about seventy people was stationed, and a Japanese brigade had already gathered nearby.
Even if it is a brigade that is dissatisfied with the establishment, it is still a brigade, right? Don’t use bean bags as dry food...
"What a damn bad luck. These little Japanese have made it clear that they want us to be cannon fodder and use our lives to give them a warning." Chen Sansheng cursed in a low voice, seeming to be very dissatisfied.
"Keep your fucking voice down, don't let Taijun hear it. If Taijun hears it, we won't be able to walk around in trouble!" Chen Sansheng's company commander cursed Chen Sansheng, who was very "ignorant".
"Isn't it..." Chen Sansheng said with aggrieved face.
"You can't say it now. I'm really tired of living. I don't have any eyesight. I don't know how you survived the past twenty years." The company commander said with hatred.
