Early the next morning, the Chichai regiment launched another attack on the county seat of Teng County.

This time the main attack direction of the Chichai Alliance is still the Dongguan Wall.

As usual, the Japanese used heavy artillery to clear the ground first, and then the infantry charged.

Although the Japanese attack caused huge casualties to 242, the Chichai unit was defeated again.

The losses of the Japs this time were greater than those in the previous attacks, and the captain of the first battalion was seriously injured by a stray bullet during the battle.

The entire first brigade was completely crippled.

With a gloomy face, Akashiba Yaezo yelled: "Baga! Baga! How could this happen? Are the Sichuan troops really so tenacious?"

The chief of staff on the side shouted: "Your Excellency, Captain, the Sichuan army has occupied the city defense. Their fighting will is not inferior to the bushido spirit of our Imperial Japanese Army. If we continue to fight like this, I am afraid that we will kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred to ourselves!"

After pondering for a moment, Akashiba Yaezo called out: "Chief of Staff, why don't we launch an attack from other city gates! From now on, adjust the main attack direction and put the main attack direction at the west gate!"

After sighing for a while, the chief of staff shouted in a deep voice: "If we attack the west gate, I'm afraid the result will be the same. We will still lose our troops and generals by then!"

With a raised brow, Akashiba Yaezo shouted loudly: "What does the chief of staff mean..."

The chief of staff shouted: "I suggest that your Excellency, the commander of the regiment, approve the use of poison gas bombs. Don't forget that the main task of our 10th regiment is to go straight to Taierzhuang and open the north gate of Xuzhou. We must not have too many troops in Teng County."

!”

Pacing with his hands behind his back, Akashiba Yaezo shouted: "Chief of Staff, if weapons like poison gas bombs are used in battle, even if we win, it will be disgraceful! I still don't agree to use poison gas bombs!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a communications soldier hurried in.

He gave a military salute to Akashiba Yaezo, and the signal soldier shouted: "Your Excellency, the captain of the regiment, the first captain, the injury is too serious and rescue efforts are ineffective. Now he is loyal to the emperor!"

His face suddenly darkened, and Akashiba Yaezo shouted in shock: "What? The first captain failed to rescue him!"

Bowing towards Akashiba Yaezo, the signal soldier shouted: "Hai! The heart of the First Battalion Captain was broken by a bullet, and there is really no way to save him!"

Hearing this, Akashiba Yaezo's face became even darker.

The First Battalion is the main force of the Chishiba Regiment. After arriving on the Chinese battlefield, the First Battalion has always been used by Chishiba Yaezo as the vanguard.

And every time they attacked the city, the First Battalion never let down Akashiba Yaezo.

It is common to win nine out of ten battles.

If the troops can fight, the first captain will naturally be valued and loved by Akashiba Yaezo!

Therefore, under the careful training of Akashiba Yaezo, the first captain made great achievements in battle.

Akashiba Yaezo originally planned to hand over the banner of the 10th Regiment to the first captain after he captured Xuzhou and was promoted to brigade commander!

But now, Akashiba Yaezo's beloved general was shattered in the siege battle!

This is really something that makes Akashiba Yaezo heartbroken.

Seeing the sad look on Akashiba Yaezo's face, the chief of staff shouted: "Your Excellency, Captain, at this point, we can only use the blood of the China Army to honor the Imperial Warriors of the First Battalion!"

After a pause, the Chief of Staff strongly suggested: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, we'd better send a telegram to the division headquarters requesting the use of poison gas bombs!"

Gritting his teeth, Chichai Yaezo shouted: "Okay! The use of poison gas bombs is approved! But the main attack direction is still the Dongguan City Wall. I must poison the Chinese troops on the Dongguan City Wall to death!"

The two heels suddenly came together, and the chief of staff shouted in a low voice: "Hai!"

…

Dongguan City Wall.

After the 242nd Regiment took over the position of the 741st Regiment, they fought a tough battle with the Japs.

Of course, the 242nd Regiment won this tough battle.

However, the 242nd Regiment itself also suffered heavy losses. The three infantry battalions were reduced by more than one-third, and one of the infantry battalions was directly beaten into an infantry platoon by the Japanese.

Despite this, the 242nd Regiment still defended the Dongguan City Wall.

At this moment, the remaining members of the 242nd Regiment were rescuing the wounded and repairing the fortifications under the leadership of the regiment leader.

Helping an officer who looked like a battalion commander to be carried onto a stretcher, the commander of the 242nd Regiment shouted: "Lao Lu, take good care of your injuries! Come back and continue to fuck the little devil!"

Nodding to the regiment leader with difficulty, Battalion Commander Lu shouted: "Commander! Don't worry, I won't die before all the little devils are killed!"

The regimental leader signaled to send Camp Commander Lu down the Dongguan City Wall.

Later, the leader of the 242nd Regiment personally urged the Sichuan Army soldiers to repair the fortifications.

Before the fortifications were repaired, there were sudden bursts of piercing whistling sounds in the sky.

Based on years of combat experience, the commander of the 242nd Regiment was able to determine that this was the sound of a Japanese mortar.

The next moment, the leader of the 242nd Regiment shouted at the top of his voice: "The little Japs are shooting. All soldiers, please take cover, hurry up!"

Upon hearing this, the Sichuan soldiers who were repairing the fortifications put down the sandbags in their hands and looked for bunkers on the spot to avoid the artillery fire.

In just a few dozen seconds, mortar shells were already raining down on the Dongguan position.

However, an incredible thing happened!

When the cannonball hit the ground, it didn't explode with the usual bang, and then shrapnel flew everywhere.

The commander of the 242nd Regiment thought these mortar shells were very strange.

These shells were emitting yellow-green gas.

Almost at the same time, the leader of the 242nd Regiment heard bursts of coughing.

Amidst the coughs one after another, the leader of the 242nd Regiment finally understood!

The big thing is bad, this is a poison gas bomb, a poison gas bomb from a little devil.

Quickly taking out a gas mask from his waist, the leader of the 242nd regiment raised his voice and shouted: "The little devil has released poison gas. Everyone, pay attention and beware of poison gas!"

Hearing this, the Sichuan soldiers were on guard against poisonous gas.

However, there are still more than 600 people in the entire regiment, and the existing gas masks are only enough for half of the soldiers.

Wearing a gas mask, the second battalion commander shouted in a muffled voice: "Team! Some of our brothers don't have gas masks. What should we do?"

After pondering for a moment, the leader of the 242nd regiment shouted: "If you don't have a gas mask, wet the towel with urine!"

In agreement, the second battalion commander directed the soldiers who did not have gas masks to use local methods to protect themselves from the gas.

Just when the soldiers of the 242nd Regiment were in trouble with gas bombs, three squadrons from the Chichai Regiment once again attacked the 242nd Regiment.

The little devils in the three squadrons all wore uniform gas masks and moved freely.

Based on his understanding of the Sichuan Army's equipment, the Japanese commander concluded that the Sichuan Army soldiers had been poisoned by poisonous gas.

The Sichuan troops at the Dongguan City Wall are waiting for them to harvest heads.

The Japanese attack speed is very fast, and they only want to quickly capture the Dongguan City Wall.

However, the Japanese's arrogance created an opportunity for the Sichuan Army of the 242nd Regiment.

Looking coldly at the little Jaap 300 meters away, the leader of the 242nd Regiment shouted: "Second Battalion Commander, Second Battalion Commander!"

Hearing the regimental leader's call, the commander of the second battalion came over and said, "Commander! How to fight!"

The leader of the 242nd Regiment shouted: "The Japs will think that we are all fainted by the poison gas, and we will use this trick. I order everyone to fake death, and wait until the Japs get within 50 meters of each other, then we will suddenly open fire!"
Chapter completed!
