Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2783 Desperate Major Chiharu!

"Aizawa, what should we do? We are surrounded!"

Major Chiharu anxiously asked his confidant, Aizawa, who was standing beside him.

Aizawa had a bitter face and thought to himself, "I told you not to come, but you insisted that Lord Nakajima liked you? Now that's it, right? It's over, right?"

But in order to survive, Aizawa had to put forward his own suggestions: "Chiharu-kun, we can't just sit there and wait for death. We must find a way to break out."

At this moment, a Japanese officer came running over and reported: "Major, our retreat has been cut off by the enemy above the cliff. Now we are completely surrounded in Sanchongguan."

Lieutenant Colonel Chiharu almost collapsed to the ground after hearing this. He knew that this time they were really in a desperate situation.

But he still pulled himself together and said, "Don't panic, everyone. Let's fight to the death. Maybe there's still a chance of survival. Everyone, follow the path I came from!"

As he spoke, Major Chiharu took the lead and rushed in the direction they came from.

Seeing the major leading the way, the Japanese soldiers followed suit. However, they had not rushed far when they were hit by even more fierce fire from the anti-Japanese fighters.

The grenade exploded in the enemy's ranks, blowing them off their feet. Major Chiharu was also scratched by shrapnel, but he ignored the pain and continued to command his men to charge.

Lieutenant Colonel Chiharu's eyes turned red as he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Charge! Charge! Anyone who retreats will be punished by military law!"

However, the firepower of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces soldiers was too fierce. Bullets poured down like heavy rain. The Japanese fell one after another and could not rush forward at all.

Major Chiharu was filled with despair as he watched the number of soldiers around him continue to decrease, but he still rushed forward.

Suddenly, a bullet grazed his ear and knocked off half of his left ear. He quickly covered his ears and was so scared that he hid behind a huge rock.

He was breathing heavily, his forehead was covered with cold sweat. He looked around and saw that the signalman was also hiding behind a rock and shivering.

As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he immediately ordered: "Quickly send a telegram to Lord Nakajima, saying that we are surrounded by the Anti-Japanese United Army, and that we have suffered heavy casualties. Request for immediate reinforcements! Request for immediate reinforcements!"

"Hi!"

Although the Japanese signalmen were extremely frightened, no one would delay for the sake of survival.

He quickly sent a telegram to Colonel Nakajima.

At this time, Colonel Nakajima had already heard gunshots and explosions from the direction of Sanchung Pass. He was about to order someone to send a telegram to inquire, but he didn't expect that Major Chiharu's report had already arrived.

However, it's not good news.

So Nakajima immediately ordered the signalman to reply: "Chiharu-kun, I will immediately mobilize all the artillery to bombard the top of the cliff, and you take the opportunity to rush out, understand?"

Lieutenant Colonel Chiharu felt a little relieved after reading the telegram. He thought that as long as the artillery could suppress the anti-Japanese fighters on the cliff, they would have hope of breaking through.

So he stuck his head out and shouted to the remaining Japanese soldiers, "Hold on a little longer, support will be here soon, and the artillery will blow away the enemies on the cliff! Then we can rush out.

However, just as he finished speaking, a bullet suddenly flew over and hit him in the head. Major Chiharu's body shook violently, and then he fell headfirst.

Aizawa was so frightened when he saw this that his face turned pale. He just wanted to get up and run away, but was hit in the leg by a bullet and fell to the ground.

He looked at the Japanese soldiers falling around him, his heart filled with despair.

The shouts of the anti-Japanese fighters were getting closer and closer, and the resistance of the devils was getting weaker and weaker. In the end, all the devils who entered the three levels were annihilated without exception.

Colonel Nakajima was in the command center, still looking forward to Major Chiharu's successful breakout. He kept urging the artillery units to speed up their preparations and prepare for a large-scale bombing on the top of the cliff.

However, as time passed, there was no more news from Major Chiharu.

Colonel Nakajima had a bad feeling in his heart.

He sent a member of his Shadow Wolf Force to investigate.

At this time, there were less than ten members in the Shadow Wolf Special Forces.

Therefore, Nakajima had to be extremely careful in employing people. As expected, the scouts of the Shadow Wolf Force went to investigate and soon got the news. The Qianchun reconnaissance team had been annihilated, and the anti-Japanese soldiers in black were cleaning up the battlefield.

Moreover, they were very alert, and he was extremely careful, but he was still discovered.

If it wasn't so dark at night, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to come back.

Nakajima had not expected that the Sanchong Pass would be so dangerous at this time. Two infantry squadrons went in, but not a single one came out alive.

Therefore, he had to re-evaluate whether he could break through the triple checkpoints by utilizing his artillery advantage.

But even so, he wanted to give it a try, and ordered the artillery to start bombarding the north side of Sanchong Pass to test the enemy's strength.

The Japanese artillery position was a busy scene, with mortars placed on the position, and the muzzles pointing grimly towards the north side of Sanchong Pass.

"Hurry up, hurry up! Don't dawdle!"

The Japanese officer shouted loudly. They were now very close to the triple checkpoint.

The range of the artillery gun is short, and the maximum range is only about 5,000 meters.

What's more, their target was the top of the cliff, which greatly reduced the distance of the attack.

Therefore, the enemy's artillery position was less than a thousand meters away from Sanchongguan. If they did not speed up the construction of the artillery position, they would probably encounter enemy counterattacks.

However, what they didn't know was that the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces had already noticed the Japs' unusual movements. The artillery of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces didn't even set up artillery positions because there was no need.

They were on the cliff, and unless the enemies could fly, they could not be hit even with heavy machine guns.

So eight mortars and twelve grenade launchers were all moved to the north edge of the cliff, and they began to adjust the angle and direction of the muzzles.

The one-eyed man personally took command and ordered: "After adjusting the gun positions, open fire directly and don't give the Japanese a chance to counterattack!"

"Yes!"

Following the order from the One-Eyed Dragon, the shells shot out of the barrel like meteors and headed straight for the Japanese artillery position.

boom! boom! boom!

The shells landed on the Japanese artillery positions, and the explosion was deafening.

In just a moment, a blazing fireball shot up into the sky, engulfing all the surrounding devils.

The gust of air spread wildly in all directions with the explosion point as the center. Wherever it went, the Japanese soldiers flew up like fallen leaves blown by the wind.

Some had their limbs shattered by the explosion, with broken limbs flying everywhere; some were knocked to the ground by the gust of air, struggling in pain.

Immediately afterwards, the second and third shells followed.

Every time a shell exploded, it was like a small sun was detonating, and the light was so bright that people could not open their eyes.

The shock wave generated by the explosion lifted the dust on the ground high into the air, forming huge mushroom clouds.

The mortars set up by the Japanese were blown to pieces, some of the barrels were broken, and some of the bases were overturned, completely losing their combat capability.

The Japanese artillerymen were frightened by the sudden artillery fire. They ran around but didn't know where to hide.

"Hurry and hide! Hurry and hide!"

The Japanese officer shouted at the top of his lungs, but his voice was drowned out by the sound of the explosion.

He himself was also grazed on the cheek by a piece of shrapnel and blood was flowing.

At this moment, the Japanese officers were filled with despair! .
