Kawaguchi Heiji kept counting the time.
When two hours passed, Kawaguchi Heiji estimated that almost all the Chinese soldiers and civilians in the tunnel had died from the poisonous gas, and the poisonous gas remaining in the tunnel should have been diluted by the fresh air sent into the tunnel by the blower.
Have Muto Akira send an infantry squad into the tunnel.
Yamatakeo had already descended into the tunnel once, so he was recruited again to serve as a guide.
Although Takeo Yamayama is a fanatical militarist, this does not mean that he will accept the orders of his superiors without regrets. However, in the face of the orders of his superiors, at most he can only murmur a few words in private, and finally he should
We had to go down to the tunnel, so we could only borrow secondary protective clothing and gas masks from the chemical defense soldiers.
Although according to the calculations of the chemical defense soldiers, the poisonous gas in the tunnel has been diluted to almost the same extent, no one would joke with their own lives, so the entire team of Japs who were ordered to go down the tunnel wore protective clothing and gas masks.
, the Japs team headed by him unceremoniously asked Yama Takeo to walk at the front.
Takeo on the mountain had no choice but to enter the tomb passage with his rifle.
It was the same tomb passage. It went diagonally downward from the right, and after about ten or twenty meters into the ground, it turned right and entered a deep corridor. After walking along the corridor for about fifty meters, Takeo on the mountain immediately became vigilant.
They got up because it was almost here that they were attacked when they first went down to the tunnel.
However, out of some malicious intent, Yamatakeo did not alert the infantrymen behind him.
However, everything was calm after that, and until we reached the end of the corridor, no Chinese soldiers appeared.
At the end of the corridor, Yama Takeo discovered three forks in the tunnel. The left and right bifurcated tunnels were very shallow and parallel to the corridor they entered before. There were also small windows about a foot square connected in the middle. Obviously, those who attacked them before
The Chinese soldiers were hiding in these two forks.
The remaining branch of the road slants downward again, and is deep and bottomless.
What surprised Takeo Yamagami was that ditches were dug under the walls on both sides of the fork in the ditch. There was still a small amount of water flowing in the ditch. Seeing this, Takeo Yamagami finally understood why the five water pumps were pumping.
All morning, I was stunned that I couldn't fill this tunnel because there was a drainage ditch under the tunnel.
"Open the way!" While Takeo on the mountain was observing, the Japanese team leader behind him had already caught up with him, then pushed him from behind and motioned for him to get down.
Takeo on the mountain had no choice but to brace himself and step on the diagonally downward fork.
After walking down for about twenty meters, the forked road came to an end again, and then a forked road appeared in front of it again. One forked road continued to go down diagonally, and the other forked road went up through a ladder, but the entrance to the top was blocked.
Takeo on the mountain immediately realized that he had entered the core area of the tunnel.
In addition, there is a small hole about a foot square that leads diagonally upward.
By the light of the fire, Takeo Yamagata could still see that the poisonous gas of Yellow No. 5 in this space had not dissipated, and there was still a faint poisonous gas flowing along the airflow into the small hole about a foot square above his head. Seeing this, Takeo Yamagata
It was immediately clear that the Chinese tunnel design was very sophisticated, but the poisonous gas poured into the tunnel by the Japanese army flowed away from the exhaust vent.
As for the Chinese, most of them were hiding in the tunnel with the entrance blocked, and they should not have been harmed.
Takeo Shanshan had already experienced the power of the Chinese in the tunnel before, so he immediately started to retreat. He turned back to the team leader and said: "Captain, the Chinese people should be hiding in this branch with the entrance blocked.
, they should not have been harmed by the poison gas, we should retreat to the tunnel quickly."
"Baga." The team leader immediately scolded, "You are a coward. As a warrior of the Imperial Japanese Army, how can you be afraid of a few Chinese gophers? Now I order you to open the tunnel entrance immediately!"
Yamatakeo hesitated for a moment, and the team leader immediately drew out his saber and pressed it against Yamatakeo's vest.
Facing the threat of a bayonet, Takeo Yamayama had no choice but to climb onto the ladder. Then he held the wooden ladder with one hand and the wooden cover of the tunnel entrance with the other.
It's very common. Takeo on the mountain is estimated to weigh at least two hundred pounds, but this little devil still managed to push it away.
Takeo Yamagami held the cover and pushed it up with all his strength. When the cover was pushed up to a forty-five-degree angle, Takeo Yamagami felt as if something had slipped, and then the entire cover suddenly became lighter.
Young Master, Takeo on the mountain pushed it hard, and the wooden cover immediately flipped up, exposing the entire tunnel entrance.
However, Yamatakeo still had an extra thought in mind.
Almost as soon as the cover was opened, Yamatakeo shrank and hid under the tunnel entrance.
Almost as soon as Takeo on the mountain dodges, more than a dozen crossbow arrows have been shot out from the entrance of the tunnel, and then they are nailed into the ground below. With only a slight difference, Takeo on the mountain is almost turned into a hedgehog by the crossbow arrows.
, the more than fifty Japanese soldiers guarding the bottom were also startled, and two of them immediately fired two shots at the tunnel entrance.
The sudden sound of gunfire seemed even louder in the narrow enclosed space, almost threatening to shatter people's eardrums.
"Baga, Baga Yalu, who told you to shoot?" The squad leader angrily slapped the two Japanese who fired the gun on each face. As soon as the gunshots were fired, the Chinese people must have known this.
Next, they had no choice but to attack by force. Originally, the Japanese team leader wanted to sneak into the village, but he didn't want to shoot.
The Japs squad called over two Japs soldiers and threw two torches up from the entrance of the tunnel.
Through the firelight produced by burning torches, it was possible to vaguely see a wider tunnel above, but the expected gunfire did not sound. It seemed that there were no Chinese soldiers above.
"Yours, go up!" After waiting for almost ten seconds, the team leader pointed to Takeo on the mountain and motioned for him to go up first.
Takeo on the mountain became numb after being repeatedly instigated, and immediately climbed up from the entrance with a bayonet in hand without saying a word.
After going up from the entrance, Takeo Yamada discovered that there was a very broad space in front of him, with a height of four to five meters and a diameter of almost twenty meters. What was even more curious was that this space was not closed.
There are countless tunnel entrances on the cave wall, and the whole thing looks like a maze.
After a while, the Japs team leader also climbed up the wooden ladder with more than fifty Japs.
After coming up, the Japanese team leader and more than 50 Japanese soldiers were immediately confused. Where should they go now?
Just when the Japanese captain didn't know what to do, a rapid ringing sound suddenly sounded behind him.
Hearing this sudden ringtone, the Captain of the Japanese team was frightened and fell to the ground. However, the moment he fell to the ground, the Captain of the Japanese team suddenly realized that this was clearly the phone carried by the communications soldier.
In order to report to the ground headquarters at any time, Muto Akira specially asked the Japanese who went into the tunnel to bring a telephone.
"Captain, what's wrong with you?" The communications soldier holding the phone looked at the squad leader in surprise.
"Baga, there seemed to be a sound breaking through the air just now. It should be a hidden weapon." The Japanese team leader made a nonsense statement, then reached out to open the messenger's satchel and picked up the phone from inside: "Mashi Mashi?"
(Dividing line)
Muto Akira put down the phone and came to Kawaguchi Heiji immediately.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the search team discovered a huge underground space underground." Muto Zhang reported, "This underground space is five meters high and more than ten meters square. There are more than a dozen exits around it.
There are more than a dozen tunnels connected, the search team asked for instructions, do you want to continue the search?"
"Nani? Underground space?" Kawaguchi Heiji frowned and asked, "More than a dozen branch roads?"
"Hai." Muto Sho paused and said, "It seems that the Chinese people have built a huge underground world underground."
"These damn Chinese prairie dogs." Kawaguchi Heiji said bitterly, "Order the Matsui team to establish a forward base in the underground space, and then send an infantry team to enter the surrounding forks in order to search. No matter what, we must kill these damned prairie dogs."
Dig out the China marmot for me."
"Hai." Muto Akira.
(Dividing line)
After Matsui, the captain of the team who went deep into the underground world, received the call, he immediately sent an infantry team into the fork in the road. Poor Yamatakeo still had to serve as a guide. Matsui left the remaining two infantry teams and the machine gun team with him, in that vast area.
Establish an advance base in the underground space.
Time passed slowly in suffocating waiting.
About five minutes later, several dull gunshots were heard from the side road the search team entered.
Hearing the sound of gunfire, Matsui and the more than thirty Japanese soldiers who stayed outside immediately became nervous. The machine gunner of the machine gun team even clicked the bolt of the gun and pointed the black muzzle at the fork in the road.
After a while, a figure stumbled out from the fork in the road.
When the machine gunner was about to shoot, he realized that the person running out was Takeo Yamayama, and he immediately released the trigger.
"What's going on? What happened inside?" Matsui stepped forward, picked up Takeo Yamada, and said sternly, "Where are the others? Where did the others go?"
"Captain, there is an ambush among us." Takeo said, "Everyone else has fallen into the trap dug by the Chinese."
"Nani? Trap?" Matsui frowned and immediately returned to the communications soldier. He picked up the phone and prepared to report to the brigade headquarters, asking for more reinforcements. However, no matter how he shook the handle, there was still no response on the phone.
There was movement, but I didn't know whether it was because the phone was malfunctioning or because the phone line was disconnected.
"Yours!" Matsui immediately pointed to Takeo on the mountain and said sternly, "Go check the line!"
"Hai." Takeo on the mountain could only obey the orders of everyone, picked up a torch and went down the corridor from the previous entrance, then walked back along the corridor while checking the lines paved on the corridor.
