The special cultural customs of the Wa country make it almost impossible for the poor to stand up. No matter how hard they work, they cannot change their destiny.
But the outbreak of a war of aggression gave these Japanese a chance to change their fate.
As long as you accumulate enough military exploits, you can be promoted, and as long as you are promoted to a certain height, you can get rid of your humble background and have a noble status.
Such people, in order to change their destiny, can do anything at all costs, so they were also the most ruthless group in the war of resistance.
Just like this captain who shouted to avenge Fujiro Ono, he was born as a fisherman on the seaside of Wa country, and he could only rely on catching sea fish for food all year round, and it was a luxury to eat a meal of rice.
In the event of typhoon and tsunami weather, we can only resign ourselves to fate. There are five brothers in a family, two of them drowned and two of them starved to death, only him survived.
Later, Wa country began to recruit soldiers, and he signed up without even thinking about it. After receiving training, he followed the army and started the war of aggression. He started from the lowest level of ordinary soldiers and climbed all the way to the position of captain.
The reason is that he has killed many people, both civilians and soldiers.
By virtue of innocent lives, he was promoted and escaped from being a poor man.
But there is still a long way to go from the wealth he imagined.
Ono Fujiro died, this is an opportunity for him.
As long as he killed the Eighth Route Army outside the city, it would be a considerable achievement, and he might be promoted to the captain of the regiment, one step closer to his dream.
And revenge is just an excuse, he can't wait to thank the Eighth Route Army who shot and killed Fujiro Ono.
For him, whether he can beat the Eighth Route Army is not in his consideration at all.
All he wanted was to kill the Eighth Route Army, or be killed by the Eighth Route Army.
In the past, Fujiro Ono decided that he could not make the decision, but now that Fujiro Ono is dead, he naturally has to follow his own temper.
There is another thing in common, that is greed.
Greed is a common problem among little devils, but the greed among them is different.
Some little devils will be very satisfied after grabbing a gold bar, and some little devils will not be satisfied after occupying a city.
The more belligerent the little devil is, the more greedy he is.
Still take the little devil captain as an example.
When he first joined the Japanese army and participated in the invasion, he was greedy for food, because the army could eat enough, and the life of fishermen made him have a deep fear of hunger.
But after a long time, he no longer has to worry about whether he can eat enough, and the goal of greed changes.
After seeing those high-ranking military officers in the army who are delicacies from mountains and seas all day long, glamorous, and someone serves their lives, he began to have the idea of changing his destiny.
Accumulating military merits to get promoted was his only way, so he began to be greedy for military merits.
In order to satisfy his own greed, he began to kill endlessly, and even for the sake of killing, he didn't even want his own life.
Because apart from this life, he has no capital.
After being promoted to captain, he also got the treatment of being taken care of, and he can also make a little fortune occasionally.
But looking at the treasures that he has robbed, even a suitcase is not enough to fill them, and looking at those high-level military officers, the amount of treasures they plundered is often calculated in terms of rooms.
He started to be greedy again, he wanted to gain a higher status, he would not have to be taught by the captain pointing his nose every now and then, and he could get inexhaustible wealth, so that he could live a life of luxury for the rest of his life.
But he is just a captain, he doesn't have any strong capital, and he doesn't have any relationships that he can rely on. If he wants to get these, he can only fight with his life.
This is what he thinks now, and it's the only way he can use now.
When one day in the future, he takes the position he wants, such as being promoted to the commander of the army or the commander of the front army, with power in his hands and a huge amount of wealth, will he stop?
No, greedy people will never be satisfied.
At that time, he still wants to be the commander of the strategic area, or even the commander-in-chief, with more power and more wealth.
The difference is that, with that status, he no longer needs to go to the battlefield to fight himself, because he is already afraid of death, and he is reluctant to part with what he already has.
He can use his identity to order his subordinates to work hard for him.
Now, instead of working hard for himself, why not work hard for Ueno Cansuke and the little devils above.
The same is desperate, the same is not afraid of death, and the same is courageous.
But the difference between such little devils and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army is that the little devils are for themselves, and the Eighth Route Army is for the country and the people.
Ono Fujiro disappeared from sight after being hit by a squib, and Li Yunlong was not sure whether he was alive or dead.
After waiting for a while without any movement, Li Yunlong was considering whether to ask Zhou Kaitian to add another shell.
Zhou Kaitian, who was also observing the movement on the city wall, suddenly jumped up from the sandbag, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Stay away, it's dangerous, you little devils want to fire!"
At this moment, the training results of the independent group's big contest some time ago were reflected.
As soon as Zhou Kaitian's voice fell, there was almost no pause, and it immediately spread towards others.
A few seconds later, the three infantry guns on the city wall fired at the position of the independent regiment at the same time.
Three shells fell into the position with flames, and the violent explosion set off layers of air waves.
The soldier who ran at the end was knocked over by the air wave and suffered minor injuries.
Zhou Kaitian warned in advance, which saved the independent regiment from being bombarded by the little devils. Unfortunately, due to the urgent time, he had no time to calculate the exact impact point.
The three shells went empty, making the little devil even more crazy, and he continued to fire.
One after another, the shells exploded on the position, and the soil lifted up covered the entire sky.
Under Zhou Kaitian's warning, the soldiers of the independent regiment could only keep running to avoid the shells. Fortunately, there were no heavy weapons to move, but they were also very embarrassed.
Soldiers of several artillery companies, risking being bombed, did not move with the large troops to dodge.
Chapter 780
In the continuous artillery fire, stones and shrapnel splashed from time to time hit the soldiers.
It was very difficult for them to calibrate the target in the presence of such large disturbances.
But the soldiers did not flinch, even if they faced the danger of being killed at any time.
One soldier's arm was even broken by a flying stone, but he endured the severe pain and adjusted the cannon position with difficulty with the remaining arm.
After trying several times, several fighters were already battered, and finally locked on their targets.
Several shells flew into the air and flew towards the city wall.
After three loud bangs, the battlefield finally fell silent.
Of the three infantry cannons of the little devil, two were blown over, and one was directly blown off the city wall.
"Artillery battery, assemble, assemble!"
Li Yunlong crawled out of a dirt pit, not caring to pat the dirt all over his body, and rushed towards the position, shouting loudly.
Soon, a group of soldiers carrying mortars rushed out from all directions, followed by a group of soldiers carrying ammunition boxes.
"Aim at the city wall and give me a blast!"
Li Yunlong roared and gave the order.
The soldiers, in groups of two, immediately looked for a suitable location to set up the barrel.
"Zhang Dabiao, organize a death squad and blow open the city gate for me. If you can't blow it open, you have to smash it open with your head."
Li Yunlong called Zhang Dabiao again.
Three mortars were blown up again. Although the little devils on the city wall did not kill or injure many people, the fear began to expand.
"Where are the people in the artillery team? Are they all dead? Go and raise the cannons until the Eighth Route Army is wiped out."
The militant little devil captain got out from the ruins where he was hiding, and yelled frantically.
"Captain, our artillery strikes won't do much harm to the Eighth Route Army. It's better to cease fire and focus on defense. As long as the reinforcements arrive, we can attack inside and outside and kill them all in one fell swoop."
Another fairly sensible little devil in the squadron stood up and persuaded.
Through the previous battles, he discovered a characteristic. As long as he did not actively attack the Eighth Route Army's position, the opponent's counterattack would not be very strong.
"Can't cause damage? Then cover the blow with a carpet."
The captain didn't want to wait until the reinforcements arrived to share the credit with him.
"But the target on the city wall is too big, we are easily counterattacked by the Eighth Route Army, the captain think twice, don't be impulsive."
The squadron leader also tried to persuade him to change his mind.
"Are you teaching me what to do?"
The captain took out his gun and shot the head of the squadron leader. With the gun in his hand, he laughed wildly and said to the other little devils: "Anyone who doesn't obey my order will die!"
He has not made any achievements in battle, and has not yet obtained the qualifications for promotion, but he has already regarded himself as the captain of the alliance.
"I'm going to raise the cannon."
"I'm going to raise the cannon."
. . . . . .
The little devils on the city wall were scrambling to run down, they didn't dare to stay here anymore.
Because they think this guy has gone crazy.
If he was not killed by the shells of the Eighth Route Army, he would have to be killed by this lunatic.
The little devils who escaped from the city wall don't care about any guns, they just need to stay away from the madman.
But there are many little devils on the city wall, not everyone has a chance to escape.
Just as they were scrambling to squeeze down, the mortar shells fired from the Eighth Route Army's position had already fallen one after another.
This time the shelling attack was fiercer than before, and the entire south wall of Boyang City instantly became a sea of flames.
The artillery company of the Independent Regiment was dispatched in its entirety, and its power should not be underestimated.
At the same time, Zhang Dabiao selected [-] soldiers from the first battalion to form a death squad. He personally led the team, each carrying two bundles of grenades, and under the cover of the artillery company's firepower, they rushed towards the city gate.
The independent regiment has regrouped and is only waiting for the city gate to be blasted open to launch the final attack.
"Lao Li, why are you using the Death Squad?"
Kong Jie asked sarcastically.
He formed a death squad when attacking the West Gate, and was criticized by Li Yunlong as wasting the lives of soldiers.
