I rise from the sword

Chapter 183 The Japanese army was defeated, the insidious little devil violated the international agreement

"idiot!"

"These damned Chinese people are really insidious, and they don't speak the spirit of Bushido!"

The devil Shao Zuo who led the charge saw that the soldiers rushing ahead were shot by the defenders' submachine guns, and a large piece fell down like a knife cutting wheat, and his eyes burst with hatred.

Another captain officer next to him asked for instructions: "Your Excellency, Captain, what should we do now?"

Guizi Shaozuo gritted his teeth and said: "The position of the China Army is right in front of us, order the troops, don't stop, keep charging!"

"As long as we can withstand the first round of fire from the Chinese army and hand in hand with them, then these damned Chinese people will be animals to be slaughtered by our imperial Japanese army!"

"Hi Yi!"

Captain Guizi nodded heavily, and then conveyed the order of the major.

The little devils who set foot on Chinese territory have been brainwashed by Junist ideas almost since childhood.

So, they don't know what fear is at all.

After receiving the order from the major, hundreds of little devils continued to charge up against the rain of submachine gun bullets from the Independence Battalion.

After leaving two or three hundred corpses behind, these fanatical little devils are finally about to hand over to the submachine gun unit of the Independence Battalion.

However, at this moment, the submachine gun troops of the Independence Battalion suddenly stopped and stepped back at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, the riflemen stepped forward.

Almost at the same time, Liu Xiao also led a cavalry company to attack from the flank.

"Brothers, rush, kill!"

In short combat, cavalry has a natural advantage when facing infantry.

The cavalry company led by Liu Xiao rushed into the crowd of little devils with the help of the charge of the horses, just like a tiger into a flock of sheep.

The effects of long and harsh training are manifested at this moment.

They rushed left and right among the Japanese army crowd, killed him totteringly, and awarded their heads one after another!

It is rare to have a single enemy!
At the same time, Zhao Yuting's artillery company also opened fire again, launching an artillery attack on the rear of the Japanese army at war, which promptly blocked the reinforcements of the Japanese army's follow-up troops and effectively supported the infantry and cavalry counterattacks.

This time, in addition to using conventional shells, the artillery company also invested a lot of special smoke bombs.

These smoke bombs exploded, releasing a large amount of smoke near the point of impact.

Five kilometers away.

In the basket of the sounding balloon on the top of the mountain.

Suzuki Sadajiro was still observing the attack of the First Brigade of Independent Infantry. When he saw the defenders shelling the attacking crowd, his originally calm face suddenly darkened.

And when he saw that the defenders were engaged in hand-to-hand combat with their own troops, using submachine guns without any martial arts, and even joined the cavalry, his face became even more ugly.

It's like eating a few catties of feces.

Soon, the diffused smoke blocked Suzuki Sadajiro's sight, making him unable to see the specific situation on the battlefield.

Chiaki Yamazaki, the commander of the First Battle Regiment of the Independent Infantry, saw that the situation was not right, and the reinforcements he sent out also had to retreat because they were bombarded by the defenders' artillery.

Due to the absence of reinforcements, the Japanese attacking force, under the strong counterattack of the two main infantry companies and one cavalry company of the independent battalion, soon couldn't support it!
Especially the cavalry company led by Liu Xiao was like a sharp knife, acting as a vanguard, stabbing fiercely into the Japanese army crowd.

Their bravery not only killed the devils with their heads rolling and corpses strewn across the field, but also greatly boosted the morale of the officers and soldiers of the company and the second company, thus hitting the morale of the Japanese army.

Under the ebb and flow, the Japanese army did not have an advantage in some of its forces, and soon the corpses killed by the independent battalion were all over the place, and blood flowed like a river!
Soon, he was completely defeated and retreated hastily!
Liu Xiao, Ma Gan and others did not take advantage of the situation to pursue, but obeyed the order of the battalion commander Yang Lin, and retreated back to the position calmly under the cover of smoke.

In the end, of the more than 2500 attacking troops invested by the Japanese Independent Mixed First Brigade, only less than 500 people escaped back, leaving only a fraction, and the loss was not insignificant.

When the battle damage report came, Suzuki Sadajiro almost bleed out of anger.

He gritted his teeth and scolded with resentment on his face: "Baga! The imperial army lost more than 2000 people without even touching the position of the Chinese army! His Yamazaki Chiaki really deserves death!"

After saying this, the old devil continued to shout: "Chief of Staff, you immediately call Chiaki Yamazaki and let him cut his own seppuku, and apologize to His Majesty the Emperor!"

Watanabe Nobuyuki hurriedly dissuaded: "Your Excellency, brigade commander, no! This defeat is not due to Yamazaki-kun's ineffective command.

We really misjudged the strength of the China Army. We did not expect that the air strike of the Royal Air Force yesterday did not completely destroy the artillery positions of the China Army.

This is the root cause of this failure! "

Hearing this, Suzuki Sadajiro's face became more gloomy.

How does he feel that Shin Watanabe blamed himself for it?
The old devil was about to open his mouth to ask questions, but he heard Watanabe Shin continue to say: "Besides, there is another plan for the humble job. It will surely take Jiaocheng Mountain lightly and wipe out the Chinese army above it!"

Suzuki Sadajiro suddenly became interested. He suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Oh? Chief of Staff, tell me!"

"Your Excellency, brigade commander, isn't there a batch of gas bombs in our baggage warehouse?"

"You mean, use gas bombs?"

"That's right!" Nobube Watanabe nodded heavily: "According to my knowledge, the Chinese Army is not equipped with gas masks, even the most elite Central Army troops in Jiang **'s hands are not equipped!"

"So, if we use poison gas bombs, we will be able to wipe out the Chinese army in Jiaocheng Mountain in one fell swoop!"

Suzuki Sadajiro frowned slightly, and said with some doubts: "But... the use of poison gas bombs is against international conventions! Once it is exposed, the Americans who are eyeing our Great Japanese Empire may take the opportunity to attack!"

"At that time, you and I will become the sinners of the empire, and destroy the grand plan of the prosperity of the entire Greater East Asia, and we will be to blame for death!"

Shin Watanabe clenched his right fist and said with a stern face, "Your Excellency, Commander of the Brigade, as long as we wipe out all the Chinese troops on Jiaocheng Mountain, who will know that we used gas bombs?"

"What's more, this damn independent battalion of the Chinese Army has repeatedly brought shame to the Imperial Japanese Army, and it seems to be the number one confidant of the empire! Even the commander of the front army has issued a strangulation order for him!"

Suzuki Sadajiro bowed his head and pondered for a moment, and finally agreed to the proposal of Chief of Staff Nobube Watanabe: "Okay, order the heavy soldiers to send these gas bombs to the artillery positions of the Imperial Army immediately!"

"At the same time, send the gas masks in the warehouse to the front line, and tell Yamazaki Chiaki that this is his last and only chance. If he can't take Jiaocheng Mountain again, let him apologize to His Majesty the Emperor by himself!"

"Hi Yi!"

Nobube Watanabe nodded heavily, and immediately picked up the phone in the air-sounding balloon basket, and began to convey Suzuki Sadajiro's order.
