Chapter 192 The death of the Sichuan Army, the Tiger Ben regiment came a step late!(1/2)
In Teng County, fierce battles continue.
When the Japanese offensive stopped, General Wang Mingzhang once again sent a telegram to Deng Jinkang, commander-in-chief of the army: "The enemy's offensive is very fierce, and the soldiers guarding the city were killed and injured.
I am determined to fight to the end and repay the country!”
A subordinate adjutant advised Wang Mingzhang: "Minister, now our army has been evacuated backwards, and our troops have held to the end.
Or, we break through, too?"
Wang Mingzhang's face darkened and he flatly refused, "As a soldier, he is the duty of serving the country with death!
This battle against Japan is related to the life and death of the nation.
Even if there are only one soldier, one gun, and one bullet, we will fight to the end!
Otherwise, why do you treat the country?
It is not enough to redeem the crimes of the Sichuan Army's 20-year civil war!
Don’t mention the matter of retreating and breaking through the siege, otherwise don’t blame me for not thinking about the love of my fellow comrades and the righteousness of brothers!
Today there are only Sichuan Army who died in battle, and there is no surrender, and there is no retreating Sichuan Army!"
"If I die, the deputy division commander will take over!"
"The deputy division commander was killed, and the first regiment commander took over!"
"The first regiment commander is killed, and the second regiment commander is replaced!"
"Repeat this until the last person!"
"Even if we die, we must weaken the Japanese army as much as possible and contribute more to other friendly forces defeating the Japanese army!"
All the soldiers around him were infected by General Wang Mingzhang's will to die, so he no longer mentioned breaking through and protecting himself.
Because he was not as familiar with the terrain in the city as with the defenders, and the artillery could not provide accurate fire support, it was night, and in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the Japanese army did not continue to attack.
The Teng County defenders who had fought for three days and three nights finally had a rare opportunity to breathe.
However, since most of the urban areas have been occupied by the enemy, all the supplies, food and grass have been lost.
The Sichuan soldiers of the 122nd Division could not even have a hot dinner, so they could only use dry food to satisfy their hunger.
It was winter, and the weather was frozen in the cold, and the dry food was as stiff as stones, making it almost difficult to get out of the throat.
How can the conditions be described as "hard"?
What is even more difficult is the lack of medical treatment and medicine. Many injured Sichuan soldiers could not receive timely and effective treatment, so they could only grit their teeth and stand firm.
In the cold, people kept dying because of their severe injuries and died heroically!
…………
I just survived a difficult night, and the next day I just turned bright.
Before the sun could fully rise, the Japanese army began shelling again.
"boom!"
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!"——"
The shells fell from the sky and fell heavily on the defense zone, and suddenly burst into flames after flames.
Many already shaky houses and buildings were overwhelmed and collapsed under the bombardment of the Japanese and turned into ruins.
Some soldiers, unfortunately, were near the landing point of the shell, were engulfed by the flames produced by the explosion, and fell into a pool of blood on the spot.
After a fierce shelling, the Japanese army launched a final attack on the defenders along the street with more than 10 tanks and armored vehicles as the leading guide.
"Brothers, the situation is here, we have no choice but to fight to the end!"
"Swear to live and die with Teng County! The city is there, the city is destroyed, the city is destroyed! Fight!"
"Ge! I'll fight! Even if I'm going to die, I'll have to take some Japanese Japanese to take the back!"
"Fight with Xiao Dongyang to the end!"
Hundreds of remnants of Sichuan soldiers in a mess were all ready to die and roared wildly.
Not long after, the Japanese vanguard rushed into the firepower range of the 122nd Division.
The soldiers of the Sichuan Army immediately opened fire, pouring dense rain of bullets towards the oncoming Japanese soldiers, and launched a final bloody battle with the enemy!
A series of dense rain of bullets came, and several Japanese who were charging forward were suddenly hit by several shots and fell to the ground screaming.
Seeing this, the other Japanese immediately tightened their formation, turned their feet and hid behind the butts of tanks and armored vehicles.
There are also some Japanese soldiers who hide behind the ruins on both sides of the street.
"Baga Road!"
"Shoot, shoot!"
"Tank gun, kill the Chinese man's machine gun position!"
Under the command of a captain, the Japanese immediately opened fire and fought back, pouring more dense bomb rains towards the defending positions.
Among them, the Type 92 heavy machine gun above the top cover of the Japanese tank has the most firepower.
As the fireworks at the muzzle were spitting out, the bullets were dense like raindrops, causing smoke and dust to spread in front of the defending positions to splash.
Many defenders were unfortunately hit and blood splattered on the spot.
The next moment, the turret of the Japanese tank suddenly turned, and the black hole 37mm main gun aimed at the defenders' machine gun positions.
The defending machine gunners realized that something was wrong, but before he could react, a hot shell had already flown towards him.
After a loud "boom", the defending machine gunners, even the people and guns, were blown away.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Japanese offensive troops accelerated and rushed forward.
Just as the defenders were exhausted, two Japanese detoured troops suddenly rushed out of the city area on both sides of the left and right.
Caught off guard, he caused extremely heavy casualties to the defenders of the 122nd Division.
In less than half an hour, there were less than 300 people left in the 122nd Division.
On the front main street, Japanese tanks rushed forward without any scruples.
Wang Mingzhang and others were forced to lead their troops to fight and retreat.
During the fierce battle, several Japanese machine gunners secretly climbed onto a roof to their right.
He was carrying a light machine gun and fired violently at Wang Mingzhang and his group.
"Da da da da!"
"Tututu!——"
A dense rain of bullets poured over. Wang Mingzhang, commander of the 122nd Division, Zhao Weibin, chief of staff, and several major staff officers were all unfortunately shot and fell into a pool of blood.
Chief of Staff Zhao Weibin was hit by several bullets, and one of them hit his back, leaving him without even a last word, and he died heroically on the spot and died of anger.
General Wang Mingzhang was also hit by several bullets, and his military uniform was dyed red with blood.
"Damn it! Brothers, kill this group of Japanese devils who are raised by the bastards to death, and avenge the division chief and the chief of staff!"
The guard battalion commander was so angry that his eyes were full of regret, and he led his soldiers to fire and fight back with red eyes.
The proud Japanese machine gunners were about to turn the guns and continue to expand their results. A dense rain of bullets hit the face.
Two of them were immediately blown up, and after screaming, they rolled down from the roof.
When the other Japanese machine gunners saw that the situation was wrong, they immediately lowered their heads to avoid it.
However, their firing seriously hindered the speed of the remaining part of the 122nd Division.
So much so that the Japanese attacking troops seized the opportunity, and all the detours went around directly in front of them, surrounding them in a residential courtyard that had been blown up.
"Yo Xi!"
The headed Japanese master couldn't help but smile as sinister as a chrysanthemum on his face. He waved his assistant knife forward and ordered: "The warriors of the empire, rush in and eliminate this stubborn enemy!"
"Kill the chicken!"
"Kill the chicken and give it to you!"
With his order issued, hundreds of Japanese soldiers immediately launched a final general attack on the courtyard where the defenders were guarding under the cover of machine gun fire.
At this critical moment!
A team of cavalry suddenly flocked in from the east gate of Teng County and joined the battle.
Yang Jing took the lead, holding a 100-sounding Thomson submachine gun, and fired decisively at the Japanese soldiers on the street.
Ma Tong, Long Yun and Tian Cheng each led the cavalry to follow closely. Under a fire strafing, the Japanese soldiers charging down one after another fell to death, and a large area fell down.
"Brothers, kill! Fight these dogs to death for me. The Eastern Miscellaneous Mother raised by Mom!"
After firing the bullets inside the drum, Yang Jing, Ma Tong, Long Yun, Tian Cheng and others led the soldiers to carry the submachine guns behind their backs, each pulled out bright battle swords, rode their horses and raised their swords to break into the Japanese crowd.
"Baga! Where did the enemy come from!"
"Counterattack, counterattack!"
