At Jiujiang Station, Yoshino Rio was already very anxious.
"Report to captain, the seventh team's position has been lost!"
"Reporting to the captain, Kameda Squadron Captain Tamaki of the 4th Squadron!"
"Reporting to the captain, Captain Inaba of the third squadron requests reinforcements!"
"Report to the captain, the Eighth Team reports that there are snipers in the Chinese army on the opposite side. They have suffered heavy casualties. Please request emergency tactical guidance from the group headquarters!"
The messengers reported the battle situation in all directions of the station like a stream.
However, Yoshino Rio was almost numb. Apart from letting the military police under him resist, he had no other countermeasures, because he no longer had a reserve team of soldiers in his hand. As early as ten minutes ago, he held the
The reserve team of the last squad had already been put into the battle and was quickly exhausted.
Yoshino Rio has realized that Jiujiang Station may not be able to hold on.
Although the Nationalist Army besieging Jiujiang Station was not that large, there were at most a regiment of more than a thousand people. If the current combat effectiveness of the Nationalist Army and the Japanese Army were to be considered, the Japanese Army would only need one infantry squadron to compete with them. There were two squadrons.
, the Japanese army can defeat them in turn, and Yoshino Rio originally had two squadrons.
Unfortunately, the National Army besieging Jiujiang Station was not the National Army on the frontal battlefield.
Most of the National Army on the front battlefield are strong men recruited during the war. They cannot march in line and cannot use guns. However, the National Army that is currently besieging Jiujiang Station is all veterans. Before leaving Sichuan,
Most of them participated in the melee war between the warlords in central Sichuan for at least four years.
After leaving Sichuan, these veterans participated in the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Nanjing, and the Battle of De'an. The brutal battles were like waves washing away the sand. How can they be ordinary people who survived several brutal battles?
They are basically veterans of the battlefield, and it is too difficult to kill them!
That’s why Yoshino Rio’s military police are so passive!
What's more, there are also Langya snipers in the National Army opposite, which makes it even more difficult to fight!
"Eight...Gah!" Yoshino Rio stamped his feet bitterly, strode to the communications soldier, and asked sternly, "Still can't contact the Chief of Staff?"
As soon as Yoshino Rio finished speaking, the communications soldier suddenly shouted excitedly: "We are in contact!"
Rio Yoshino pushed the communication soldier away, stepped forward to grab the receiver and microphone, and then shouted loudly into the microphone: "Mashi Asashi, are you the Chief of Staff? I am Yoshino!"
Yoshimoto Teiichi's voice immediately came from the other side of the walkie-talkie: "Yoshino-san, what's the situation in Jiujiang now?"
Yoshino Rio said sadly: "Chief of Staff, the situation in Jiujiang is very bad. The arsenal has been blown up by the Chinese Army, the entire city has been lost, the Royal Association Army's garrison brigade has been completely wiped out by the Chinese Army, and the main force of the military police has also suffered heavy losses.
There are less than two remnants of the squadron left in the humble position and they retreated to Jiujiang Station, and are now being besieged by the Chinese Army."
"Nani?" Sadao Yoshimoto on the other side of the walkie-talkie asked in surprise, "Where are the Marines coming to help?"
"The Marine Corps are a bunch of trash." Yoshino Rio said, "They are blocked from the north gate."
"Baga!" Yoshimoto Zadaichi scolded angrily, and then said, "Yoshino-san, we must hold on to the station no matter what. At the station, we have already passed Saiyang, and we can get back to Jiujiang in one hour at most!"
Yoshino Rio said sadly: "Chief of Staff, I'm sorry, we can no longer hold on!"
Because just during the call, the Kuomintang troops on the periphery were approaching at least forty to fifty meters, and the entire defense line of the gendarmerie had been shattered to pieces. At this time, even people with no eyesight could see that Jiujiang
The gendarmerie was already exhausted, and the fall of Jiujiang Station was inevitable.
Yoshino Rio said again: "Chief of Staff, now we can only blow up the station!"
"Baga!" Yoshimoto Teichi yelled angrily, "Yoshino-san, you can't blow up the station, you can't blow up the supplies, hold on to me, hold on to me, wait until we come back, hold on!"
Rio Yoshino no longer wanted to listen to Yoshimoto Seiichi's roar and threw the receiver away.
Looking back, Yoshino Rio shouted: "Ono-san, is the gasoline ready?"
"Hai!" An orderly stood in front of Yoshino Rio carrying two jugs of gasoline.
Yoshino Rio took one of the jugs of gasoline, opened the lid, and poured the gasoline on top of the mountains of military supplies around him without hesitation. The orderly named Ono followed suit and opened the lid of the other jug of gasoline, also pouring the gasoline on top.
Gasoline was poured on the military supplies, and the pungent smell of gasoline immediately filled the air.
"Yoshino-san, Yoshino-san? Hold on, you must hold on!"
Yoshimoto Seiichi's roar still came from the receiver of the walkie-talkie.
Yoshino Rio kicked the receiver far away, then took out a box of cigarettes, first gave one to the orderly, then took one into his own mouth, and then said: "Ono-san, enjoy this cigarette, this is
I'm afraid this is the last cigarette and the last time that you and I will enjoy in this world."
"Hai." Ono paused with a sad expression, then put the cigarette into his mouth.
As Yoshino Rio spoke, he took out a lighter from his trouser pocket, lit it with a ding, lit it first for himself, and then for Ono, then took a deep breath, feeling the pungent feeling of the thick smoke rolling in his lungs.
, while looking around, the last line of defense of the gendarmerie had also been broken through by the National Army.
With a slight sigh, Yoshino Rio raised her hand and was about to throw out the lighter in her hand.
But at this moment, Yoshino suddenly felt a pain in his wrist, and the lighter in his hand dropped to the ground. When Yoshino turned his head to look in shock, he saw that there was already a hole in his right wrist. Chinese sniper?! A fierce one
Excited, Rio Yoshino bent down to pick up the lighter that fell on the ground.
Then there was another muffled sound, and Rio Yoshino felt his body suddenly become numb. The body that had just bent halfway could no longer bend. At this time, the lighter that fell on the ground was only two inches away from his fingertips, but
The last two inches became a chasm that he could never cross. He was shot! And it was in the heart!
"Poof!" Yoshino Rio fell to the ground heavily, her eyes still fixed on the lighter.
Then, Rio Yoshino roared like a wounded beast: "Ono-san, fire!"
Orderly Ono was so excited that he threw away the cigarette, then bent down to pick up the lighter on the ground.
The next moment, another bullet whizzed at high speed, and passed through Ono's head with a pop. Blood was flying, and Ono was like a piece of wood that had been sawed down, standing straight and crooked. In just such a moment, the man who was originally full of energy was
A pair of eyes had turned into dead fish eyes, looking up at the sky above the head with an empty look.
Then, Rio Yoshino saw a strong Chinese soldier walking over.
Yoshino Rio noticed that the Chinese soldier was holding a Mauser gun, but it was not an ordinary Mauser gun, because a scope was installed and a sleeve-like accessory was added to the muzzle. When he was dying,
Yoshino Rio faintly saw that the Chinese soldier suddenly squatted down and took the cigarette case away from his jacket pocket.
Then, the boundless darkness completely swallowed up Yoshino Rio.
Zhuan Shanbao bent down and took out the cigarette case from the pocket of the fallen Japanese officer.
Good guy, it’s a stainless steel cigarette case with exquisite chrysanthemum patterns engraved on the surface. This thing is probably not ordinary. When Zhuanshan Leopard looked down at the Japanese officer in a pool of blood, he was actually a colonel. When he opened the cigarette case, inside
There is a row of cigarettes, but I can't read the Japanese on it, but I guess it's not ordinary.
Picking up the lighter from the ground again, Zhuanshan Leopard lit a cigarette and started puffing away the smoke.
At this time, a burst of gunfire suddenly rang out from the other direction of the station. Zhuanshan Bao immediately grabbed the cigarette, then put the stainless steel box and lighter into his pocket, then took the modified Mauser 98k sniper rifle and pointed at the gun.
He ran away from the direction where the sound came from, but by the time the Mountain Leopard arrived, the Japanese who resisted had already been killed by the Sichuan Army.
Zhao Baishi, who had just been promoted to colonel leader, was in high spirits and was shouting loudly: "Brothers, clean up the battlefield quickly, don't miss any corner, don't let go of any Japanese."
After saying that, Zhao Baishi jumped down from the mountain of supplies. Li Sijin, Hou Zhigang, and Xue Laoyao, several battalion commanders, immediately surrounded him, all of them with eyes shining and excited expressions.
"Brother, I've made a fortune, I've made a fortune this time!" Li Sijin said.
Hou Zhigang also said with great excitement: "So many weapons and ammunition, so much food and clothing, and so many cans and so on. It's enough to arm an army and there are still some extra. I really made a fortune! Haha!"
Xue Laoyao didn't know where he got a can. He pried it with a bayonet and said, "Brother, our 799 regiment doesn't have to go hungry this time."
Zhao Baishi and the others nodded heavily.
When they first came out of Sichuan, their lives in the Sichuan Army were really hard, and they were worse than beggars.
The Nationalist Government had originally promised that as soon as they left Sichuan, they would be given new military uniforms, new weapons, and a military pay of five legal coins every month. However, after leaving Sichuan, the Nationalist Government told them that the Sichuan Army would be provided with all the rations.
The local government took responsibility, but the local government ran away one after another, and no one was seen. As a result, they could only wear straw sandals and fight the Japanese on an hungry stomach.
Looking back on those unbearable days, Zhao Baishi and the others still felt aggrieved. It was really not a life for human beings. Now that they have so many supplies, their 799th regiment finally no longer has to treat them badly.
"Hurry up." Zhao Baishi said repeatedly, "Second child, third child and youngest child, please quickly take people to the city to escort those Japanese devils over and ask them to help us move military supplies and move all the supplies from the station into Jiujiang City.
Hidden inside, don’t wait for the Japanese plane to arrive and blow up all these supplies!”
Zhao Baishi was worried. The Japanese planes had all gone to bomb Wuhan.
However, Li Sijin and the others didn't know, so they quickly gathered people and went into the city.
