Chapter 297 Desperate Rescue (Please vote for me! Please subscribe!)
All conventional tactics have proven ineffective.
Light machine guns and grenades were useless against the solid stone towers. The only threatening infantry artillery gunners not only refused to fire, but even carried their squad leader to ask for medical advice, leaving a cannon barrel.
Used as an exhibit in the ruins.
More than forty infantrymen took turns attacking, at the cost of losing fourteen people, but they did not exhaust the bullets of the stubborn enemy.
He even had the terrifying long-handled grenades equipped by the Chinese. The grenades thrown from the holes were comparable to mortar shells, and a demolition soldier who had reached the blind spot and was putting down his explosive pack was covered in blood.
Without saying a word, the blown explosive package kicked twice in the air, and the terrible air wave almost buried alive the light machine gun duo who were providing fire support to him 20 meters away.
If Xiao Cunxiong hadn't made a decisive decision and quickly ordered everyone to provide fire cover, and personally led a few people to dig through the brick wall, the two unlucky children would have suffocated to death.
The lives of the Imperial Army cannot be wasted in this way. Conventional tactics are useless, so unconventional tactics are used. Except for the small team that has put on gas masks and is preparing to attack, the rest have all retreated 80 meters away.
On the side of the grenadier is a box of special grenades with a scary red skull mark painted on the surface. This is a special type of grenade issued by the wing headquarters to infantry squadrons that enter the ruins to search.
Once that thing is opened, it means the coming of death, which is much more terrifying than explosives that can kill people.
Without a gas mask, even the instigator himself would not easily touch this weapon, which is as if it was brought from hell.
Kumaichi Komura has personally experienced the terrible consequences caused by this weapon.
On the North China battlefield, a Chinese soldier with at least one infantry regiment who built a position in a hilly area continuously withstood four or five waves of attacks by his infantry brigade without retreating. His combat effectiveness was extremely strong. The two infantry guns of the infantry brigade plus the wing headquarters
The all-out shelling from four mountain guns seemed unable to destroy their will, but only three minutes after encountering this mustard gas bomb attack, all their bravery was in vain.
In the end, less than 300 people fled the battlefield, and more than 1,000 people stayed on their positions. Komura Xiongyi, who was wearing a gas mask, witnessed the horror of mustard gas bombs with his own eyes, because he breathed and was contaminated with mustard gas.
Thousands of Chinese soldiers died in their battle positions.
The skin contaminated with mustard gas developed a large number of blisters, some of which were even the size of eggs. After painful struggles, they were broken and oozed shocking yellow water.
But Xiaomura Xiongyi knew that this was nothing. The real cause of death of those Chinese who were still able to fight to the death under artillery fire was because mustard gas entered their respiratory systems.
Military doctors dissected corpses on the battlefield to examine the cause of death. After opening the chest of the corpse, they found that the lungs of those who died due to gas bombs were severely edematous, like a fully inflated rubber ball. The terrible emphysema made them unable to do anything.
If they breathe normally, they will die tragically from suffocation within two minutes.
Even as a victor, Komura Kumaichi did not want to see the emergence of this kind of weapon again, because the distorted and deformed face of the Chinese had been occupying his nightmares for several months.
But now, for the sake of the honor of the empire, he must use this special ammunition.
The Chinese on the top of the stone tower is dead. Although the power of the grenade explosion cannot destroy the solid stone wall, after all, he is not a god but a human being.
As a human being, we need to breathe.
The mustard gas floating in the air will enter the interior of the tower roof, which has many holes, and enter his respiratory system. He will die of suffocation caused by pulmonary edema, just like those heroic Chinese assassins.
This is the power of technology, and the firmness of personal will is still too weak in the face of the great changes brought about by technology.
Wearing protective clothing and gas masks, the team in the ruins more than 20 meters away did not even carry explosive bags.
Because their mission is to enter the stone tower and bring back the Chinese body.
Although, according to Komura Kumaichi's own idea, he wanted to bury this brave and fearless enemy at the place where he had fought, and even erect a monument as a memorial, he knew that it might not be up to him. The Imperial Army was here.
The battle area suffered heavy losses, and the already crazy Major Captain, Senior Colonel Captain, and at least the General Captain all had to use the corpses of Chinese people to frighten the Chinese in the city.
The body of this Chinese warrior was hung up, and his bravery was even publicized to the middle-class people in the city, just to stimulate the Chinese and make them lose their minds, so that the Imperial Army would have more opportunities.
On the battlefield in North China, Xiaocun Xiongyi's Fifth Division often did this. After conquering all the Chinese positions that resisted tenaciously, they would definitely choose to execute the Chinese wounded soldiers who were unable to evacuate the scene in front of the Chinese people.
Even when a commoner dares to cry and hang his head without looking, he will be sent to dig a huge pit, and he will be buried in it while burying the body.
Those who dare to resist are destined to die! His Excellency, the commander of the division Seishiro Itagaki, used such a simple and crude method to crush the will of resistance of most Chinese people on the front lines he passed.
"Uncle Crow, what is the purpose of that ghost-looking thing that the little Japs are wearing? Can that thing stop bullets?" The little bald man looked at the Japs soldiers wearing gas masks hiding among the ruins through the holes and asked curiously.
crow.
"That's a gas mask. It's broken. Seeing that the Japanese can't attack hard, they are going to use gas bombs again." The crow has never eaten meat, but he has seen pigs walking. In addition, he has experienced a wave of gas bomb attacks before.
Also understand when gas masks will appear.
The previous wave of poisonous gas had long been dissolved in the mist and rain. Even the Japanese soldiers themselves had put away their poisonous gas masks for the convenience of fighting. Now they put them on again, and they were ready to do whatever they wanted to do.
“If it rains heavily, you should quickly hide on the fourth floor below. Remember, the further away from the top of the tower, the better. Also, wet your clothes with urine, cover your mouth and nose, and try to reduce your breathing.”
"I'm not going. I want to be with Uncle Crow. Otherwise, who can help Nong watch the Japs' actions? Nong has to shoot and observe alone, but he can't take care of it." The little bald man who didn't understand the horror of poisonous gas was very reluctant.
"Listen to uncle!" Crow, uncharacteristically, touched Xia Dayu's bald head gently and said softly. "That thing is very powerful. If you accidentally suck it into your stomach, you will die. If something goes wrong with you, I will have to
I’m taking care of you, right?”
“Then, how can Uncle Crow hide?” The little bald man’s eyes showed deep worry.
"Me? Don't worry. I have fought so many battles with the little devils. Didn't you see that Uncle Crow and I are still alive and well?" Crow tried his best to show a relaxed expression on his face. "Ala, like Nong, wet his clothes and covered his nose.
That’s it. Come on, let’s go, we are all grown men, don’t act like a mother-in-law.”
The boy was reluctantly driven off the top of the tower by the crow.
Crow also picked up clothes, wetted his urine and wrapped it around his mouth and nose, and tried his best to wrap his body with military uniforms. This was all mentioned by Lieutenant Colonel Tang Dao during the neighborhood combat training that night, which was not too long ago.
Once the Japanese used such chemical weapons, this was the only way to reduce the damage.
You are not afraid of death, but you must die slowly, so that Japanese people will suffer more.
This is the mentality of the crow now.
70 meters away from Xilin Temple, two men wearing Japanese military uniforms were lying on the attic.
As the personal guard of the Army Lieutenant General, Zhao Daqiang is naturally an elite soldier selected from thousands of troops.
Not everyone is qualified to be a guard. In addition to being absolutely loyal, one must also be strong enough.
Although he is short in stature, he is capable enough. However, under his 1.6-meter body, he has the power to defeat one against five. The difficult experience of living in Wushan as a child gave Zhao Daqiang a tough heart. As an adult, he ventured into the world of Brother Pao and exercised the hidden power in his body.
His strength, and the military training after joining the army brought his talents into full play.
With his powerful strength, accurate shooting and tenacious temperament, Liu Yuqing believed that he was born to be a soldier, so he took him by his side.
After following the Lieutenant General for a long time, Zhao Daqiang naturally has enough vision and can quickly judge the situation.
If the Songhu War had not come, in order to protect the safety of the lieutenant general and division commander, Zhao Daqiang, who was still a sergeant, would have been transferred to an infantry company to serve as an infantry platoon leader for training.
Watching the actions of the Japanese army from a distance, Zhao Daqiang had deep despair in his eyes.
Since he was ordered to sneak into this battlefield to prepare to meet friendly forces, he has been observing for more than 15 minutes, but has not fired the signal flare according to the request of the division commander.
It was not because he found that there was only one friendly soldier, but because no matter how he weighed the balance, even if the mortar group fired at this direction with all its strength, he could only make a desperate judgment that no one could save the security guard brother in the desperate situation.
At this time, the Japanese army was almost surrounded on all sides, and they also used small poison gas bombs.
