Lao Yanqiang took advantage of the chaos to break out with the remaining assault soldiers, but those soldiers who were scattered in the darkness suffered a disaster. They rushed left and right, but there were Japanese soldiers with bayonets everywhere, and they were already
There is no way to escape.
"Yeah! Little devil! I'll fight for you!"
A burly soldier fired all the bullets in the barrel of his gun, looked at the Japs coming up from all around, and roared at a Japs officer who was rushing towards him with his rifle holding a bayonet.
The Japanese officer had a fierce look on his face. Facing the burly Chinese soldier who rushed over, he slashed hard with his saber in both hands. Gululu's head flew out and then rolled down into a pool of blood.
The burly soldier's headless body staggered forward a few steps before falling straight to the ground.
The Japanese officer wiped the blood splattered on his face and ordered viciously: "Kill them all!"
Although they arrived with timely reinforcements and saved most of the cannons, a lot of them were still damaged, which made the Japanese officers a little angry.
Ah!
The Japanese were very vicious. Facing the injured Chinese assault soldiers who had no time to escape, they did not hesitate to stab the soldiers with sharp bayonets. Screams could be heard one after another in the darkness, and the soldiers who had no time to stand out were massacred.
Liu Ting's thigh was hit by a bullet that flew from nowhere. At this moment, the blood had soaked his military pants. He dragged his injured thigh, endured the pain, crawled to a 105 howitzer, and stuffed the explosive bag hard.
Got under the howitzer.
Although it was just a simple action, due to the injury, he was still tired and sweating profusely. Looking at his subordinates who were being slaughtered by the Japanese in the distance, he felt sad but helpless.
He sat up leaning on the howitzer, tremblingly took out a pack of crumpled cigarettes from his arms, pulled out one and put it in his mouth, lit a match and lit it, blowing out smoke rings, feeling less
It's painful.
The Japanese were getting closer and closer. Several soldiers who were running over were shot and fell to the ground. One of them had his skull cut off. He recognized that it was his brother who had been with him for several years. There was no expression on his face.
He smoked cigarettes and enjoyed the last moments of his life.
Several Japanese soldiers also discovered Liu Ting who was sitting in front of the howitzer. They grabbed him and shot him. The bullet entered Liu Ting's chest with a stream of light, and splashed blood mist. Liu Ting screamed in pain, and his eyes fell out of his mouth.
fell down.
Seeing that Liu Ting had no strength to resist, the Japs strode over with bayonets in hand. They were not prepared to waste any more bullets and were ready to end his life with one more stab.
But when they were only a few steps away from Liu Ting, a look of horror suddenly appeared on their faces, because they saw that Liu Ting, who was already half-dead, actually used a cigarette butt to light the fuse of the explosive pack, making a sizzling fuse.
The rope was spreading and headed straight for the explosive pack.
Several Japs were so frightened that they turned around and ran away subconsciously. Liu Ting looked at the Japs running hastily and grinned.
Boom boom boom——
The intensity of the explosive pack exploded and the earth shook. Smoke and flames instantly enveloped the surrounding area of ten meters square. The howitzer was immediately blown into parts. Liu Ting's body, who was close, was blown away like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind.
Lifting up into the sky, he felt himself flying, getting higher and higher, and then his head went black and he lost consciousness.
Several Japanese soldiers who rushed over were not spared. They were immediately involved in the tyrannical air waves. Their broken arms and legs were flying everywhere. When their bodies landed, only vague pieces of flesh were left. Faced with this intensity,
It is impossible to survive the explosion, and the shock can kill people.
A large number of Japanese reinforcements came in and stabilized the situation. Among the more than 200 assault soldiers who broke into the Japanese artillery position, except Lao Yanqiang and more than 30 who escaped alive, all the others died heroically for their country.
Although only a dozen of the Japanese howitzers and mountain artillery were blown up, which did not cause any damage to the powerful Japanese, the loss of the Japanese artillery made the captain of the 58th Regiment who rushed to the artillery position furious.
The Japanese artillerymen camped in tents next to the position. Most of them were killed in the first wave of attacks by the commandos. Many of them were sent to see the King of Hell by grenades while they were still sleeping.
Without artillery, the cannon is no more than scrap metal and cannot exert much power in a short period of time. It is also a consolation for the fallen commandos.
The explosions in the direction of Dingshan stopped, and the gunfire also subsided. Everyone in the headquarters of the Chinese defenders Jiangfang Group was excited. They didn't know whether the people who went to blow up the Japanese artillery positions succeeded or missed.
The originally excited Commander Liu Xing's complexion became worse and worse as time went by, and he smoked cigarettes one after another. The staff members were also in a low mood, and no news came back. In all likelihood, the raid would fail.
Although they had already expected the failure of the raid, after all it was not easy to blow up the artillery among the heavy Japanese troops, but now that it had truly failed, they still found it hard to accept and were somewhat unwilling to do so.
The headquarters staff have been waiting for more than two hours, but there is no response from the radio and there is still no news coming back, which makes them very frustrated.
"Okay, let's disperse." Liu Xing was also in a low mood at the moment. Thinking of the failure to attack the Japanese artillery position, he felt panicked.
Just when they were about to accept the fact that the raid on the Japanese artillery position had failed, a guard suddenly rushed in and reported that someone had exchanged fire with the Japanese near Huashan in the west of Yunting Town, and it seemed that someone was breaking out.
The guard's words rekindled the hope of everyone who had been disappointed, and many people even cried with joy.
"It's Captain Liu and the others, it must be them! They must have succeeded!" someone shouted excitedly.
Liu Xing was also in a daze at this moment. He did not expect that things would turn around so quickly, so he hurriedly ordered: "Let the 667th Regiment immediately send people to help them break out!"
The oppressive atmosphere in the headquarters was relieved, and they felt happy at the thought of the Japanese artillery positions being blown up.
In fact, they did not know that the people who were breaking out towards Huashan at this moment were not the people they sent to bomb the Japanese artillery, but the defeated troops led by Yang Ling.
Yang Ling and the others did not dare to act rashly because of the firefight in the direction of Dingshan, and had been observing the situation secretly.
But as the gunfire from the direction of Dingshan fell, Yang Ling realized that he could not wait any longer. If they waited until dawn, the hundreds of them would be unable to escape if they were bitten by the Japanese, so he decided to break out immediately in the direction of Huashan.
"Brothers! Give it to me!"
The two hundred breakout troops led by Liu Yidao rushed to the front. They concentrated almost the most powerful firepower in the hands of the defeated troops, a total of nine light machine guns and grenades.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-the machine gunners hung their machine guns on their chests and fired while charging forward. The other soldiers also fired and fired, and kept using black grenades to greet the Japanese.
Although the Japs had raised their alert level, they were a little confused when faced with the violent blow. Before the Japs inside the Japs checkpoint could react, the rout soldiers used their powerful firepower to plow through the courtyard and sweep out holes, drowning them in the water.
