He raised the gun, took aim, and gently pulled the trigger. The last Japanese in the field of vision pounced forward, but there was no movement.
Xu Rui put down his Mauser 98K sniper rifle, and when he looked again, he saw that there was no longer a living Japanese soldier on the main street in front of him. All three of the Japanese tanks had been destroyed, and the T-34 tank in the middle was more
It was Mei Jiuling's Ling Ling Yao that directly exploded the fuel tank and burned into a fireball.
Xu Rui raised his head again. A hundred meters ahead, Leng Tiefeng leaned out from the top of a half-collapsed Western-style church and gestured to Xu Rui, meaning that the front was safe and there were no Japanese!
Taking a deep breath, Xu Rui sat down on the ruins.
He Shuya and Mei Jiuling also came closer, and they smoked happily together.
The gunfire on Beimen Street became sparse, but the anti-aircraft machine guns in the distance continued to fire.
Only then did Xu Rui realize that in the sky above his head, there were far fewer Japanese fighter jets and bombers, and they no longer dropped bombs. At most, they would swoop down to straf, and then quickly pull up. But even so,
Japanese fighter jets or bombers are still shot down from time to time.
After waiting for half an hour, the Japanese still did not see the next round of attack. Xu Rui was sure that the Japanese Seventh Army could no longer organize a decent attack. The fierce battle lasted a whole night, coupled with the indiscriminate ability of the Japanese air force to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.
Differential bombing, while causing heavy casualties to the Chahar Independent Regiment, the Japanese's own casualties will only become more severe!
Counting the brutal street fighting in the past few days, more than 20 infantry regiments of the Japanese Seventh Army should have been defeated. After all, all nine main infantry battalions of the Chahar Independent Regiment have been defeated! Since the defeat of Chahar
Since the day the Independence Regiment was formed, it has never been as miserable as it is now. Just relying on this, Ishihara Wanji, an old devil, is proud enough.
After waiting for a while, Xu Rui returned to the regiment headquarters after finding that there were still no Japanese attacks.
After returning to the regiment headquarters, Xu Rui immediately asked the guards to call Lai Guangdong, the squadron leader of the 1st Flying Squadron, to the regiment headquarters.
As soon as he walked into the regiment headquarters, Lai Guangdong noticed that there was something strange about the atmosphere inside. Everyone, including the regiment leader and the political commissar, looked at him with hidden meanings.
In an instant, Lai Guangdong's expression turned miserable. He had already realized what he was going to do.
Wang Husheng wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say. Should he tell Lai Guangdong, just go and be good and people all over the country will remember you? It's so cruel that he really can't say it!
But as the leader of the group, Xu Rui had to say: "Lai Guangdong, it's not too late for you to change your mind now! I still said what I said before, the prerequisite for carrying out this task must be your willingness..."
"Captain, you don't need to say anything." Before Xu Rui could finish speaking, Lai Guangdong interrupted him, paused, and then said sadly, "I only have one request. After I die, give me something every other month.
Is it okay for my mother to write a letter and tell her that everything is fine with me here until she is a hundred years later?"
Before Xu Rui could say anything, Wang Husheng choked and said, "Yes, of course it is okay."
"Okay, thank you, political commissar, thank you, leader." Lai Guangdong said as he took out a note from his pocket and said to Wang Husheng with a smile, "Political commissar, there is an address written on it. Please be sure to send it on time every month.
letter."
After saying that, Lai Guangdong stood up straight and saluted Xu Rui and Wang Husheng respectively.
Xu Rui, Wang Husheng, Du Junjie, and all the staff officers and guards of the regiment all stood at attention and raised their hands in salute.
Lai Guangdong put down his right hand and said with a bright smile: "Commander, political commissar and all comrades-in-arms, good-bye and never see each other again!"
After saying that, Lai Guangdong turned around and walked away, watching his thin figure go out. Everyone who stayed at the regiment suddenly felt that his figure was so tall and towering like a mountain!
…
In Puhe Town, the headquarters of the Japanese Seventh Army.
Ishihara Wanji straightened his back and knelt down on the tatami without moving. Since the seventh army's last attack was disintegrated more than half an hour ago, the old devil walked into his office and knelt on the tatami.
Go on, for more than half an hour, it didn't even move.
"Your Excellency, Commander." Yano Otonzaburo's figure appeared outside the door again and advised, "Please go back to the war room?"
The Battle of Fengtian has reached this point. Even the dullest Japanese staff officer in the headquarters can see that the Seventh Army has no chance. Although the Seventh Army still has nearly 100,000 troops, it is a pity that
, apart from the wounded, most of these 100,000 people are auxiliary units such as baggage troops, engineers, and artillery.
The real infantry has been exhausted. Without infantry and aviation, the armored force is useless no matter how powerful it is.
What's more, the aviation and armored forces have also suffered heavy losses, especially the two armored divisions. The original more than 300 Type 97 or 95 tanks, plus the later addition of more than 300 T-34 tanks,
It has been basically destroyed, and most of the remaining hundreds of tanks were seriously damaged and can no longer participate in the battle.
Although the aviation force also lost more than 200 aircraft, it was not to the extent that it was damaged. However, without ground infantry and armored forces, it was impossible for the aviation force alone to eliminate the Chahar Independent Regiment in Fengtian City. Therefore,
It is said that as of now, the Seventh Army has actually lost the Battle of Fengtian.
Moreover, after destroying almost all combat troops and armored units, the Seventh Army still faces the imminent counterattack of the Chahar Independent Regiment! Xu Rui's consistent style has always been to retaliate, and this time they will fight against them in Fengtian
The Chahar Independent Regiment also suffered heavy losses, so they will definitely retaliate wildly.
What's even more troublesome is that around Fengtian, around their Seventh Army, there are more than 100,000 Manchukuo troops and militia armed forces surrounding Fengtian. This means that their Seventh Army has not only lost Fengtian.
A battle, and we are facing the huge danger of annihilation of the entire army. This is not scary, but it is really possible, and the possibility is very high!
If not for this, Ishihara Wanji would not be like this, sitting on the tatami like an idiot.
Seeing that Ishihara Kanji had no reaction, Yano Otonzaburo continued to persuade: "Your Excellency, Commander, if nothing unexpected happens, the Chahar Independent Regiment will launch a full-scale counterattack soon. At this time, the entire army is in urgent need of your command.
Therefore, please be sure to return to the command position and lead us to prepare as soon as possible to meet the counterattack of the Chahar Independent Regiment."
"Hehe, hehe." Ishihara Wanji rolled his eyes, and then smiled, "Are you going to meet the upcoming counterattack of the Chahar Independent Regiment? This has nothing to do with me, Yano-kun, this is you, the chief of staff.
It's my mission." After saying that, Ishihara Wanji finally stood up from the tatami, walked to the knife rest with bare feet and pulled out the short sword on top, but after thinking about it, he put the short sword back and replaced it with the tachi below.
Yano Otonzaburo's pupils suddenly shrank, and he said solemnly: "Your Excellency, Commander, the matter has not come to this yet!"
"If you haven't reached this level yet, what can be considered as this level?" Ishihara Wanji smiled miserably, and then said, "With the superior strength of one legion, plus the assistance of two armored divisions and an entire aviation regiment,
, but failed to eliminate a mere Chahar Independent Regiment, and may even be defeated by the opponent and the entire army was destroyed..."
Speaking of this, Ishihara Wanji couldn't go on, he felt embarrassed.
Yano Otonzaburo quickly advised: "Your Excellency, Commander, this is not your responsibility alone..."
"No, this is my responsibility alone. If it weren't for my personal willfulness, the Seventh Army would not be facing such a desperate situation!" At this time, Ishihara Wanji was completely sober, like a gambler.
, often only after losing all the chips can it be possible to regain sanity. Unfortunately, it is too late to say anything at this time, too late!
After saying that, Ishihara Wanji bowed deeply to Yano Otonzaburo again and said: "Yano-kun, I leave the remnants of the Seventh Army to you. Please lead them to break out and preserve these precious living forces for the empire.
!”
Yano Otonzaburo stood at a loss, not knowing what to say. He could only watch helplessly as Ishihara Wanji knelt down on the tatami again, unbuttoned his shirt, and then pulled out his sword and aimed it at his abdomen.
Just as the sword was about to stab, a white figure suddenly appeared and grabbed the handle of the sword.
Ishihara smiled and couldn't stab her with the knife. When he looked up in shock, he found that it was Chiyoko Inoue.
"Miss Inoue, what are you doing?" Ishihara smiled and was a little confused. Why did Inoue stop him from committing suicide?
Chiyoko Inoue said faintly: "Your Excellency Commander, I have been ordered by the royal family to protect your personal safety. Before my mission is over, no one has the right to take away your life, including yourself!"
After saying that, Inoue Chiyoko gently exerted force and snatched the sword from Ishihara Wanji's hand.
However, at this moment, Chiyoko Inoue suddenly felt a warning sign in her heart.
There is no time to say more at the moment. Chiyoko Inoue picked up Ishihara Wanji like a chicken, and rushed out of the small western-style building where the headquarters was located as fast as lightning. After leaving the small western-style building, Chiyoko Inoue ran forward, while
Looking up, I saw an Il-Fifteen fighter jet suddenly swooping down.
…
In the sky, Lai Guangdong piloted the IL-15 fighter jet into its final dive.
Looking at the rapidly approaching buildings on the ground outside the cockpit, Lai Guangdong suddenly saw his mother in Nanyang. As usual, his mother was sitting quietly at the door of his house, sewing old clothes with a sewing basket.
"Mom, goodbye." Lai Guangdong muttered silently, "Goodbye, never see you again..."
The next moment, the IL-15 fighter jet crashed into the ground building below.
Then, the high-explosive bomb designed and manufactured by Li Xiaoxia, a doctor of chemical engineering, exploded, and the entire Seventh Army headquarters was razed to the ground almost instantly.
