In fact, they were already remarkable when they, who had never been on the battlefield, mustered up the courage to jump out of the trenches with the veterans and charge towards the Japanese troops who were still capable of resisting and might shoot fatal bullets at them at any time.
The strict discipline formed by long-term training allowed them to overcome the fear of blood spurting and losing their lives at any time. However, when they saw the hell-like scene in front of them, they were still scared to death.
Seeing several Japanese soldiers covered in fire, shouting "Huhu" in Japanese they didn't understand, holding guns and stumbling through the smoke of burning rockets towards their crawling positions, they were so frightened that they forgot
shot.
It was not the determination of the Japanese soldiers with guns that frightened them, but the fire burning all over their bodies.
That flame was really terrifying.
As far as the eye can see, the Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough to survive the steel ball bombs rolled out of the bunker, rolling on the ground with miserable howls that were not like human voices, or desperately tearing off the burning clothes on their bodies. There were also a few who were lucky enough not to catch fire.
He took off his military uniform and beat the flames on his companions, trying to help put them out.
They were ignited by incendiary rockets and even forgot that they had to face the charge of more than 100 Chinese infantrymen and fierce heavy machine gun fire.
The infantrymen of Panshi Camp did not charge any more, and the heavy machine guns also stopped firing, because they knew that it was no longer necessary.
On the battlefield, it suddenly fell into a strange situation where there were only human screams but no more gunshots.
Incendiary napalm bombs are actually nothing new. They were invented as early as World War I. However, during World War II, American soldiers developed them into napalm bombs, which became the most inhumane bomb second only to poison gas bombs during World War II.
.
But in the late autumn of October 1937 on the Chinese battlefield, the application of incendiary bombs on a miniature battlefield made all officers and soldiers see its horror.
All the Japanese soldiers who tried to extinguish the flames on their bodies failed. No matter how they slapped or rolled them, the flames on their bodies were like maggots on the tarsal bones, lingering on. Clothes would be on fire if they were slapped, and hands would be burned if they were slapped.
. Even when it rolled on the ground, the ground where the Japanese soldiers burned their flesh and skin was dotted with sparks, and even the stones and soil were burned.
It's creepy.
The struggling and wailing of Japanese soldiers whose bodies are on fire will turn into a ball of silence in no more than 40 seconds. The reason why it is called a ball is because almost all human bodies are balled up. The most terrifying thing is that the balled up body is still there.
The burning body would twitch strangely from time to time.
That is not the conscious reaction of the human body, or even a neurological reaction, but the natural twitching of the muscles caused by the intense burning of the blazing flame, just like roasting a pig leg. When the skin is exposed, the muscle fibers may be broken, and the muscles may be
will shrink.
Undoubtedly, the most terrifying sound on the battlefield at this time was not the sound of gunfire, but the sound of human flesh being burned until it sizzled. The sound of pure barbecue was almost every normal person's nightmare.
As for those Japanese soldiers who were determined and knew that they would not survive but still charged towards Panshi Camp with guns in hand, before the veterans could shoot them, the Japanese soldiers who were only thirty meters away and whose body oils were ignited collapsed.
The ground turned into several "bonfires".
A gust of mountain wind blew by, and a strong smell of meat reached the nostrils of the infantrymen. By the time they realized that it was the smell of cooked human flesh, it was too late to hold their breath, and many recruits vomited immediately.
The veterans who had experienced the Battle of the Great Wall were much stronger than the new recruits. Although their faces were a little pale from such a miserable scene by the Japanese army, they were basically calm. They held their guns tightly and silently watched the reaction of the Japanese troops on the battlefield.
.
If there are still survivors, they must quickly launch a charge, rush to a range of 50 to 40 meters, throw grenades first, and then shoot the Japanese who jumped out of the bunker one by one to complete the combat mission.
As the infantry platoon leader of the Sharp Knife Platoon of the Panshi Battalion Infantry Company, Li Debiao's eyes have always stayed on the Japanese position in front, and his eyes, which are no different from open or squinted, have been searching for dangers that may still arise. If nothing goes wrong, 20 seconds
After that, he will lead the sharp knife platoon again to charge and completely annihilate the remaining Japanese troops.
It is the responsibility of an infantry platoon leader to complete combat missions, but as a veteran, he did not reprimand the recruits for being timid. This is a necessary process for all recruits.
The training ground can train marksmanship and fighting, but it cannot train the psychological endurance in the face of cruelty.
Although the hell-like scene in front of me is scary enough, compared to the time during the Great Wall War of Resistance, when I stayed in the trenches for eight days and watched with my own eyes my comrades who were eating at the same table and sleeping on the same kang, who were as close as brothers, or those who were so pale because of being shot.
He died slowly, or was swept up high by the Japanese invaders' shell waves and then fell apart in pieces, or he just lay on the trench and died silently on his gun without saying a word, while he had to die in silence as his comrades left one by one.
Sometimes, we have to face the psychological pressure of waves of attacks from more and more enemies that never seem to go away, and that doesn't even count.
The smell of cooked human flesh? What's the smell? They must also learn to swallow cold rice dumplings that can guarantee their energy for the day on a battlefield filled with the smell of corpses.
As a veteran of the original 19th Route Army who experienced the Songhu Anti-Japanese War in January 1932, he fought bloody battles with the Japanese invaders for nearly half a month before the counterattack. Because there were too many casualties, there was no time to transport them away, so the bodies of his comrades could only be placed in the trenches.
Although it was a cold January, the body that had been stored for half a month was rotting. Even if it was covered with three layers of blankets, the smell was nauseating. However, they had to continue to eat, drink, and sleep here.
Continue fighting.
This is war, there is no warmth, only cruelty. Only by experiencing cruelty can we better understand the fragility and value of life, but we can also better understand the love of comrades.
Only they are the most trustworthy people on the battlefield. You can trust them with your life, whether you are alive or after death.
However, Li Debiao did not issue another charge order after all. Instead, he slowly stood up with a submachine gun in hand, led his subordinates, and hundreds of infantrymen, including recruits with dirt on their mouths, and pointed their guns at the Japanese army.
.
Yes, there is no need to charge.
The remaining dozen or so Japanese soldiers, led by a Japanese sergeant with a sun flag on his rifle, took off their military uniforms. Some wore only white shirts, and some simply went shirtless. They rushed out of the position and marched towards
Hundreds of Chinese infantrymen slowly stood up and launched a countercharge.
Because they also know that it is futile to stay in the position any longer. They will only be ignited by the Chinese new weapons, and they will be roasted in the bunker like a roasted pig.
Perhaps in order to demonstrate their bushido spirit, or perhaps in the hope that the Chinese would allow them to rush into the queue for a life-and-death bayonet fight full of personal heroism, the Japanese soldiers did not fire, but instead turned off the safety of their guns.
However, they did not understand the Independent Regiment too well. In the Independent Regiment, Liu Tuanzuo had a military rule that before hand-to-hand combat, he must empty all the bullets in his gun.
For all the officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment, although hand-to-hand combat is an extremely important subject, and those who are not qualified cannot even be recruited into the army, Liu Lang cannot let the soldiers he has trained for several years just compete 1 to 1 in hand-to-hand combat.
He died in a battle loss ratio of 1:2. What he wanted was not the battle loss ratio, but to annihilate the most enemies at the minimum cost.
He is just a regiment, and every life is precious. He does not need any heroes, but he needs a soldier who can live and contribute his strength to the country and nation.
Including himself, he has increasingly reduced his personal heroism over the years. If it weren't for special circumstances, he would never go there again with two special forces carrying a mortar like he did in the Battle of the Great Wall.
The 6th Division is in trouble.
Perhaps Liu Tuanzuo today lacks the spirit of a high-spirited young man when he first came to this era, but as he has matured, he is undoubtedly more and more qualified as a commander.
No one dares to disobey his military orders.
Seeing the last remaining Japanese troops who had left their position and were forced to countercharge in an attempt to make a profit, Li Debiao, who was standing at the front, smiled coldly, waved his hand lightly, and the infantry platoon under his command aimed at the Japanese troops and fired without hesitation.
There is no suspense. A semi-automatic rifle can empty a ten-round magazine in five seconds. A Somi submachine gun equipped with a 71-round drum magazine is enough to pour out firepower comparable to a light machine gun in five seconds. The Japanese soldiers who were brave enough were all shot to death.
On land more than 120 meters away from the infantry of Panshi Camp.
The leading Japanese sergeant rolled in pain and howled miserably until there was no sound at all.
"Platoon leader, what are you shouting like you are killing a pig!" A recruit closest to Li Debiao couldn't help but asked quietly.
"Hehe, I don't understand either, but I think it's just that we are called cowards for not daring to bayonet with them." Li Debiao grinned and asked: "Dongzi, if we really fight with them on bayonet, are you afraid?"
"
"I'm afraid of him. The five bullets left in my gun can kill several of them. My bayonet fighting training in the past two years is not in vain. Even the squad leader is sometimes no match for me! I'm still afraid of them.
"Really?" The second-year soldier who was transferred from the Strong Soldier Company to the Panshi Camp two years ago answered confidently with a strong chest.
"Only you can." The infantry squad leader standing nearby laughed and slapped him on the back of the head. "Hurry up and clean up the battlefield with the brothers. I'll leave the job of mending the little devil's guns and wounds to you.
"
According to the wartime regulations of the Independent Regiment, no prisoners will be kept except those who surrender to the Japanese army on their knees, including those who are unable to resist. It is not that there is no extra food and medicine to feed them, but that there is no spare time. Any Japanese invaders who enter China will have their guns
Is your mouth not stained with Chinese blood?
Moreover, with the painful lesson of the Pingxingguan 115th Division cleaning the battlefield, but the wounded Japanese soldiers used grenades and cold shots to kill dozens of people after the victory, the independent regiment, including the 386th Brigade, issued orders before the war to ensure that when cleaning the battlefield,
To be safe, always replenish your gun first and then your knife.
They were left with only five minutes to clean up the battlefield. Ling Hong, the battalion commander on the terraced position, had ordered all fire support troops to pack up their equipment and ammunition and prepare to set off for the main battlefield five kilometers away.
After a burst of sporadic gunfire, the infantrymen, carrying guns on their backs and led by their respective platoon leaders, entered the forest and marched towards the main battlefield.
At this point, the 79th Japanese Infantry Regiment arrived at Qigen Village, including the two infantry brigades plus the regiment headquarters and directly affiliated artillery squadron, baggage squadron, and ammunition squadron. The entire army was wiped out. Not even a single person escaped. Only those stationed in Jingxing County remained.
A complete infantry group consists of 1,100 men.
Oh, I also took two 94 tanks and 6 tank crews.
A 94 small tank was plunged into the manure pit of Chinese farmers. It was captured, but no one was paying attention to it at the moment.
