Chapter 759 Li Yunlong: I will fight with them (first update)
The chief of staff felt firsthand the strong murderous aura emanating from the commander's body, as if he would be killed with his eyes if he said something wrong.
However, the military situation is urgent. As the chief of staff of the regiment, he must always consider the troops and his superiors.
Although he knew that the next answer might anger the captain, he still answered bravely.
"Please calm down, captain..."
"The Yamaguchi Regiment suffered heavy casualties and the Eighth Route Army's morale was high. If both sides continue to fight hard, they are likely to perish together. It is not cost-effective."
"The troops retreated on their own initiative and met with the brigade commander."
"The troops will be supported by the field artillery brigade and the heavy artillery brigade."
"We won't be afraid if the Eighth Route Army besieges us twice as many times."
"No..." Yamaguchi Yamaguchi shook his head like a rattle and objected without hesitation.
"I am also a face-saving person."
"More than 2,000 Eighth Route Army troops killed us and retreated in embarrassment."
"If the news spreads back to the Northeast, the Yamaguchi Regiment will definitely become a shame for the entire Kwantung Army, and everyone here will be embarrassed."
The chief of staff wanted to say something else: "Which is more important, face or the safety of more than a thousand elite Kwantung Army personnel?"
But he didn't dare.
The captain was furious, and saying these words was like adding fuel to the fire. He didn't even know how to die.
Just when he was racking his brains, thinking about how to continue to persuade the commander of the regiment to retreat.
The radio operator suddenly rushed towards them, panting and reporting: "Report to the regimental commander, the latest order from the brigade headquarters."
"The Exposed Army dispatched a large number of mountain artillery, cavalry, and infantry to attack the junction of the two infantry regiments."
"In order to prevent the brigade from being divided into two by the Eighth Route Army, defeat each one."
"Require the Yamaguchi Regiment to retreat immediately and march quickly towards the brigade headquarters."
"The entire army has established a defensive line on the spot and is waiting for reinforcements."
The chief of staff was so excited that he almost jumped from the ground.
This telegram from the brigade commander came so timely, it was almost like sending him a pillow while he was dozing off.
Strike while the iron is hot and quickly ask Colonel Yamaguchi for instructions.
"Captain, withdraw..."
"The morale of the Eighth Route Army is high and the offensive is getting more and more fierce."
"If the troops retreat a minute earlier, the casualties will be reduced by one point."
"If the junction is occupied by the Eighth Route Army, we will have no chance to retreat. Please consider it carefully, captain."
"Withdraw...boom-boom-boom...ta-da-da..."
Yamaguchi Colonel instantly turned into a defeated rooster, with a face full of unwillingness. Just as he said the word "withdraw", the sound of fierce firefight suddenly came from behind.
He was so frightened that he quickly turned back.
He raised his binoculars and saw a group of Eighth Route Army troops coming towards him under the cover of artillery fire.
No matter how stupid Yamaguchi was, he knew something was going on behind his back. He frowned and analyzed with a solemn expression: "It's not good..."
"The joint between the two armies has been occupied by the Eighth Route Army, and they are launching an attack on us to expand the breakthrough."
"Let the third brigade hold on."
"Other troops immediately gathered, covered by artillery, and immediately launched a counterattack against the Eighth Route Army occupying the junction."
"Recapture the junction and move closer to the brigade headquarters."
It was only then that Colonel Yamaguchi realized the critical situation and began to worry.
…………
"Dong dong dong..."
The dull sound of heavy machine gun fire suddenly sounded in front of the First Battalion of the Duyi Regiment, and more than a dozen soldiers fell in response.
The shooting distance is too close, and the penetration power of heavy machine gun bullets is very strong.
Each fallen warrior has at least a bloody hole the size of a fist on his back.
"Stop advancing..." Li Yunlong shouted as he followed the First Battalion.
"The enemy is on guard. If he charges again, he will not be able to win."
"Everyone has established a defense line on the spot. I have added all the light and heavy machine guns to prepare for the Japs' counterattack."
"The radio operator immediately contacted the artillery and asked them to aim at the position fifty to one hundred meters in front of the blocking position and provide us with artillery support at any time. Otherwise, we will definitely not be able to stop most of the regiment from making a desperate assault."
"Boom boom boom..."
As soon as the order was uttered, an explosion rang in Li Yunlong's ears.
Several fireballs shot up from the blocking position not far away at the same time. More than a dozen soldiers were blown away in the explosion, and they were blown over...
Li Yunlong was heartbroken when he saw it, and he hit the ground with his clenched fist, but there was nothing he could do.
"Kill me..."
Hundreds of little Japs launched an attack at the same time, hoping to break through the defense line of the only regiment and battalion in one go and recapture the joint.
"Open all the light and heavy machine guns, hold on for me..." Li Yunlong came to the defense line in person, picked up a crooked gun that had just lost its gunner, put it on the ground and started to fire at the Japanese.
"Da da da……"
The gunfire rang out, bullets flew out of the barrel, and the two little Japs he had put in the crosshairs fell to the ground.
He quickly turned his gun and aimed at the other two Japs.
He pulled the trigger and just fired a bunch of bullets when two guards suddenly took action, rushing towards his back with anxious faces and shouting warnings.
"Captain, be careful... Boom..."
Violent explosions rang in his ears, and the two soldiers pressing on his back stopped moving in an instant.
"You stupid little devil, I'll fight with you... Ta-ta-ta-ta..." Li Yunlong was irritated, and while cursing, he pulled the trigger, and soon all the remaining bullets in the magazine were emptied.
There was no one here to help him load bullets, so he could only drop the crooked handle, pick up a handful of 38 caps held by the sacrificed soldier, load the bullets, aim, and fire...
The whole set of movements was very neat. In less than three seconds, the enemy he had caught in the crosshairs fell to the ground.
…………
While Li Yunlong led the troops to fight against the Japanese, Kong Jie was not idle either, commanding the troops to attack the Japanese army one after another.
Hearing the sound of fierce exchanges of fire coming from the Japanese joint headquarters, he immediately gave orders with an anxious expression.
"No, Li Yunlong is in danger..."
"The only regiment is attacked from both sides, so the combat pressure must be very high."
"We must eliminate the current enemy as soon as possible, support Li Yunlong, and defend the Japanese military base."
"The 26th Regiment continued to outflank, set up all the grenade launchers and light and heavy machine guns we were equipped with, quickly broke through the Japanese rear troops, and attacked their main force."
"The Duer Regiment stormed the Japanese artillery position..."
"The artillery immediately provided fire cover to Li Yunlong and attacked the little Japanese attacking the only regiment."
"Hurry up and fire the artillery, and defend the Japanese military base at all costs."
After Kong Jie gave the order, he looked towards the Japanese artillery position.
The little Japs there were dismantling the artillery pieces and preparing to move towards the brigade headquarters with the infantry.
But when he met Kong Jie, he was destined to have no way to escape.
"The first battalion follows me...the second and third battalions take cover..." Kong Jie ordered again.
The crooked handles held in his arms fired at the same time, and the bullets flew forward as if they were free.
There were sixty or seventy little Japs in front blocking the way, giving the artillery troops time to move.
Each and every one of them was as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood, fighting to the death without retreating.
Kong Jie did not tolerate them. He led his troops in a fierce attack and broke through their defense line in only two minutes. However, the first battalion also lost nearly a company, and the battle loss ratio reached an astonishing one-to-one ratio.
The offensive firepower of the Duer Regiment was seven to eight times that of the Japs, but the result was such a huge loss ratio, which shows how fierce these little Japs are and how fearless they are to death.
