"The gunfire outside the station has stopped, sir. It must be that the first round of offensive by our reinforcements has been repulsed!" Seeing that Major Miyamoto was silent, the adjutant reminded him in a low voice.
"Let them withdraw before they cause any more unnecessary casualties!" Major Miyamoto suddenly raised his head and ordered.
"Also, order all artillery troops to concentrate all artillery and fire artillery fire on the blocking position exposed by the Eighth Route Army. Tonight, the Eighth Route Army will eat one of my reinforced squadrons. This loss cannot be swallowed by oneself. I want revenge. From now on
They even bit off a piece of meat from their bodies!”
"Hi……"
Major Miyamoto did not expect that his retreat order had not yet been sent to the front line, but the guard company had already received the retreat order one step ahead.
The three infantry companies were very fast. Not only did they successfully kill the Japanese reinforcement squadron after the division, they also prepared a pocket formation waiting for the Japanese reinforcements to see if they could continue their efforts and win another battle!
Major Miyamoto was obviously not optimistic about the counterattack force that had been ambushed. However, because of his lack of optimism, he saved the lives of more than a hundred of his subordinates.
Looking at the temporary blocking position behind him that was instantly enveloped by the explosion, the guard company commander also had a frightened expression on his face.
It only takes five minutes. If you retreat even five minutes later, your troops will be bombed.
With such fierce artillery fire and without complete fortifications, the troops would definitely suffer heavy losses.
"Batalion Commander, the results have been calculated!" Liang Cheng walked to Xiong Changhe and reported with excitement on his face.
Including Xiong Changhe, everyone stared at Liang Cheng, waiting for the next step.
For this moment, the troops had been suffering for five days, being beaten and suppressed by the Japanese every day. Now it was time to reap the results, and they couldn't help but be nervous.
Liang Cheng immediately replied: "One of the little Japs who strengthened the squadron, none of them slipped through the net, and all were wiped out. A total of 259 Japs, including their squadron leader and a Japs captain."
"Four mortars, four heavy machine guns, ten light machine guns, more than 140 rifles, and more than 40,000 rounds of various ammunition were seized, including 160 mortar shells alone. The Japanese brought them out
Of the cannonballs, not a single one was used, but all were captured by us!"
"In addition, during the tentative attack on the Japanese garrison half an hour before the war, we must have killed no less than twenty Japs!"
"The guard company, the recruit company, the artillery company, and the Japanese reinforcements must have killed no less than thirty Japanese!"
"Total all together, the number of Japs we killed tonight must be no less than 300!"
"Yes, the five days of waiting have finally paid off!" Xiong Changhe replied with satisfaction.
Liang Cheng said with a smile on his face: "Battal Commander, comrades have fought so well. Do you want to order the troops to retreat now? Go back and have a good rest. We will have an extra meal tomorrow to celebrate!"
"No!" Xiong Changhe shook his head and refused!
"The commander's order is very clear. After this battle, it is up to us to decide how to continue fighting the Japanese!"
"Comrades, do you still have the physical strength to continue fighting with me?"
"Yes..." More than a dozen cadres shouted excitedly, as if they had been given chicken blood.
The commander of the artillery company immediately added: "Batalion Commander, we have four more mortars, that is, seven mortars and two infantry guns... plus the mountain artillery battery, we can completely defeat the little devils in the front."
Showdown!"
"Our heavy machine gun company can do it too!" the commander of the heavy machine gun company said.
"Including the four heavy machine guns we just captured, we have a total of ten. The Japanese only have eight left, so we have the advantage!"
Xiong Changhe waved his hand, signaling the company commander who wanted to continue speaking to stop, and then ordered.
"In addition to the ones we killed before, there are still 500 little Japs standing in front of us in the station in front of us!"
"We have an old saying: take advantage of your illness to kill you..."
"Tonight, I decided to continue attacking the little Japs in front of us. While they are suffering heavy casualties, we will continue our efforts and kill another one or two hundred of them!"
"Artillery company, haven't we seized more than a hundred artillery shells? Don't be polite to me. Return them all to me. Even if two artillery shells kill and injure a hundred little devils, with so many artillery shells hitting them, they can still kill at least
One hundred devils!"
"Three infantry companies plus a guard company, taking the company as a unit, each company strengthens two heavy machine guns, attack the Japanese camp from four directions together, if possible, go directly in and kill the little Japanese in the camp!
"
After listening to the adjutant's report on the casualties of the troops, Major Miyamoto seemed to have been drained of all his strength and slumped down on the stool without saying a word.
"Sir, there are 529 people left in the entire brigade, of which there are less than 400 combat infantrymen, just two infantry squadrons. What should we do next?"
Major Miyamoto had a sullen face and did not answer.
When the adjutant was about to continue speaking, the sound of exploding shells suddenly sounded outside the tent.
Through the gap in the tent curtain, he could clearly see the fireball rising into the sky from the explosion of the artillery shell.
"Sir, we were attacked by artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army that bombarded us was equipped with at least seven mortars!"
Major Miyamoto's heavy and decadent face suddenly came back to life, he stared at the adjutant and ordered.
"The Eighth Route Army is too arrogant. They are not satisfied with killing more than 300 of us in one night. In this case, let us let them know that they are lucky if they can take advantage of us. Now they are coming to kill us again.
Taking advantage of others is delusional!"
"The artillery will counterattack immediately. Destroy the Eighth Route Army artillery force at all costs!"
"All infantrymen enter the position and prepare for battle!"
"Da da da~"
As soon as the adjutant rushed out, intensive gunshots rang in his ears, from all directions!
Some of the vitality that had just returned to Major Miyamoto's face disappeared at this moment, and then turned white again.
"Sir, there are a lot of Eighth Route Army troops. There are Eighth Route Army troops everywhere around the station. They want to kill us!" A lieutenant officer rushed in and reported breathlessly.
"Impossible, there is only one battalion of the Eighth Route Army around us, it is impossible for them to have the guts to eat us!" Major Miyamoto retorted with the last glimmer of hope.
"It's true, sir, I don't know where they got so many people!" the lieutenant insisted.
"The Eighth Route Army is everywhere around us. They have light machine guns and heavy machine guns. They are definitely the main force of the Eighth Route Army!"
"Boom boom boom..."
At this time, a more violent explosion reached Miyamoto's ears. His face, which was already pale, became even whiter at this time!
"Mountain artillery, the Eighth Route Army is actually equipped with mountain artillery to attack us, at least six mountain artillery!" Major Miyamoto was stunned for a moment and said to himself.
Then the tent door curtain was opened, and a second lieutenant with blood on his body and the smell of gunpowder smoke rushed in.
"Sir, the eastern defense line to the east of the station was attacked by the Eighth Route Army's mountain artillery. The temporary position was destroyed. The troops suffered heavy losses and are in urgent need of reinforcements!"
"It's over!" he shouted with despair.
