Thinking in his mind, Iizuka Kunigoro made a wise decision-ordering the troops to retreat back and find a big mountain to stand on and wait for reinforcements.
Regarding this move, Colonel Iizuka Kunigoro did not think it was shameful, because this was not an act of desertion, it was called "a strong man cutting off his wrist"!
"Chief of Staff, please send me an order immediately. All the troops here are to retreat immediately!" A stern look flashed across Colonel Iizuka Kunigoro's face, making people feel shuddering just looking at him.
"Hai!" The chief of staff simply agreed without asking anything. Because he knows the temperament of the co-captain, it is best not to refute or argue about what the co-captain has decided, but to just implement it honestly.
…
The battle is still going on fiercely.
However, the resistance of the Japanese army became weaker and weaker because their casualties were also increasing.
"Quick, help me... help me..." A Japanese soldier who was shot was shouting in pain. His wound was bleeding constantly, and a heartbreaking pain was bothering him.
His teammates wanted to save him, but was it possible to save him? His teammates also kept getting shot and falling to the ground.
Among the dense gunfire, there was also the sound of one or two small grenade shells firing and exploding.
"Boom!!!"
"Boom!!!"
Only this shell exploded twice, and there were no other small grenade shells to continue the bombardment.
It’s not that the officers and soldiers of the country are ignorant and don’t know this is a good thing, but——
"Snapped!!"
There was a loud slap.
Oh no, to be more precise, it was the sound of a slap to the back of the head.
"Damn it, do you know what you are doing? This is the logistics force that is fighting against Japan. You are attacking their fighting force alone, and you are using this kind of thing to fight. Aren't you afraid of detonating their bombs? Then we also captured a What?" The one who was cursing was the platoon leader who fired the grenade. The platoon leader looked filled with indignation and looked very angry.
"I know, platoon leader, I will never do it again." The soldier from the special agent company said with some trepidation, obviously afraid that he would be kicked by the platoon leader's big feet.
"Snapped!!"
There was another loud slap on the back of the head, again from the platoon leader.
I saw the platoon leader cursing and saying: "Since you already know, why don't you use a rifle to shoot me? Immediately hit me with a rifle, and don't use grenades!!"
"Yes...yes, I understand." The soldier quickly put down the grenade in his hand, and then picked up the rifle.
…
Of course, this is just a small episode.
The battle is still going on.
Soon, these stubborn Japanese troops were wiped out by the national army officers and soldiers.
After this short but fierce battle, Liu Houming, commander of the special agent company, and Wang Yongcheng, commander of the cavalry battalion, finally set foot on the road that the Japanese army had just occupied.
"How's it going, Battalion Commander Wang? This trick is still useful, right?" Liu Houming gently held his hat, his face full of relief.
Obviously, Liu Houming was not surprised by such a result, because he knew that such a result was inevitable - the firepower of the special agent company was already strong enough, plus the second and third cavalry companies. The firepower of the company has been strengthened. Is that still a good thing?
These three companies have fully reached the scale of one light machine gun per squad, and the third cavalry company has even reached the scale of two heavy machine guns per row, not to mention grenade launchers. The equipment is not ordinary. .
If Wang Yongcheng and Liu Houming hadn't explicitly banned the use of grenades, otherwise, this battle would have ended faster!
"How can we use the word 'barely useful'? This is the normal combat method of your special agent company. It can be said to be a trump card. If I say it is barely useful, I am afraid of being sprayed to death... Haha." Wang Yongcheng laughed. There was absolutely no hint of embarrassment.
"Okay, Battalion Commander Wang, let's stop flattering each other. This has spread, but don't laugh so hard, let's take a look at the trophies!" Liu Houming said bluntly, "The point is to see what the group wants us to take. The artillery can’t be damaged.”
With that said, Liu Houming stood up and walked towards the two 105mm caliber howitzers. This is the main business of today.
"Okay!" Wang Yongcheng nodded, then turned around and said: "Brothers, count the loot as soon as possible. The focus is on the grenade and the small shells of the grenade, as well as these two large-caliber artillery. The rest can be slowed down. !”
"Yes, sir!"
The surrounding soldiers responded, everyone loves the grenade...
Soon, Liu Houming and Wang Yongcheng walked in front of the two large-caliber artillery.
Touching the barrels of these two large-caliber artillery pieces, Liu Houming sighed: "This is really a good thing... It would be great if we could use it... Using them to blast the little devils will definitely have the best effect." ah……"
"That's for sure. Our regiment's artillery is mainly based on the Qiwu Mountain Artillery. There are only twelve artillery pieces. If we add these two artillery pieces... we will be even more powerful..." Wang Yongcheng also sighed.
"Come here, pull these two artillery pieces away quickly! Be careful that the little devils will try to kill you!" Liu Houming sighed, but he would never miss the main business.
For Liu Houming, even the words of the commander of the theater are not as effective as the words of the regiment commander.
If we want to use a typical character as a metaphor, it is probably only Monk Wei in Liangjian who can compare - they are both capable and loyal to the leader.
…
The attack by the special agent company and the cavalry battalion ended with lightning speed, but the war in Gutang Town was not over yet.
Under Zhang Tianhai's order, three battalions of the First Police Regiment were rapidly outflanking Gutang Town amidst the sound of artillery fire.
Zhang Tianhai's request for the artillery battalion's order was also very simple, that is, the artillery fire could not stop before the large troops surrounded Gutang Town. What he wanted was the final word!
In this intensive artillery bombardment, Gutang Town, which is not very large, has become a sea of fire, with thick smoke billowing inside, and the people inside will be seriously injured if not dead.
Only a few Japanese soldiers who responded quickly escaped the hell on earth of Gutang Town along the original route, and fortunately escaped with their lives.
However, they soon discovered that groups of dense Chinese troops were outflanking them!
At this time, the Japanese army was no longer as aggressive as before the previous attack on Gutang Town - they had just escaped from this burst of artillery fire, and the organization of the army had long been disorganized, and they were unable to organize a strong attack or attack. It's defense!
Shinzaburo Koizumi was one of the surviving Japanese soldiers. He looked at the charging national troops with dull eyes. It was obvious that he was not so warlike, and even the pace of escape had slowed down.
"Quick! Quick! Quick!! Run!! Mr. Koizumi! If you don't run, we will all die here!!" Shinzaburo Koizumi's teammates reacted quickly enough, and they woke up Shinzaburo Koizumi at once, and then Pull him and run outside.
Under such circumstances, not many people would still have a strong will to fight...
