Chapter 659: Yuichiro Kurahashi who died unjustly
A huge Tiger tank slowly appeared in the rain-pouring street, countless raindrops splashed on its gray body, and the hideous barrel flashed with a swarthy light. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Slowly this Tiger stopped in the middle of the road, for the two sides that are fighting, this tank is so eye-catching, its arrival means that the battle situation that was originally in a stalemate will soon undergo a huge change, it is that it has just appeared by the Japanese army "warm welcome", countless bullets are towards the past, but for these things Tiger Tank chose to ignore, it just gently shook its body Jiujiang These fatal bullet rain for others all bounced off, and even a spark did not emerge in the heavy rain.
As soon as the body of the tank came to a stop, I saw a flash of fire from the muzzle, and with a puff of smoke, a machine-gun fortification that was desperately firing at the attacking troops was blown into the sky with a huge explosion.
"The chariot of the people of China is coming, Kurahashi-kun, you leave immediately with the military flag, it's too late!" Sato Konoe said to Kurahashi Yuichiro with a miserable face, when he saw the tank that suddenly appeared, he knew that his end had come, only to see Sato Konoe take the cloth bag containing the military flag from the hands of a flag guard lieutenant behind him and hand it to Kurahashi Yuichiro, bowed to him deeply, and said solemnly: "Kurahashi-kun, get rid of it, please be sure to escort our military flag out, the future and hope of the 261st Wing depend on you!" ”
Yuichiro Kurahashi didn't dare to slack off, and quickly bowed, "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, please rest assured, I will definitely escort the military flag out." ”
"Then let's go!"
Yuichiro Kurahashi didn't talk nonsense either, he put the cloth bag with the military flag close to his body, and then took the hundred Japanese soldiers who had been selected and rushed towards the place behind him where the gunfire was a little smaller......
These things are a long story, but in fact it is less than two minutes, during which the Tiger tank in front of it uses the side-by-side machine gun in front of the turret to sweep the direction of the Japanese troops, and at the same time keeps firing at the Japanese fortifications with its 88mm KWK36L/56 tank gun.
For the Japanese army, this powerful 88 mm tank gun was comparable to the death of the reaper, the Japanese army did not have the fortifications to block its attack, although in this short two minutes it only fired a total of four shots, but three fortifications have been blown up, and the Japanese hiding behind the fortifications were killed and wounded.
"Your Excellency Dazuo, the chariot of the people of China is too fierce, let's dodge it first!" Someone suggested.
"Smack!" A crisp slap sounded, and Sato Konoe scolded the young man who suggested dodging: "Yaga, Kurahashi-kun, they just left, if we evacuate, can they outrun the chariot of the Chinese people, if our military flag falls into the hands of the Chinese people because of our reasons, we will die a hundred times and will not be able to atone for our sins!" ”
In the face of the angry Sato Konoe, what else can the people around him say. Under the orders of officers at all levels, the remaining Japanese troops could only scatter and hide in the streets everywhere, desperately using their weapons to shoot at the Chinese soldiers hiding behind the Tiger tanks in front. It's just that although the resistance of the Japanese army is fierce, the Tiger tank is still advancing firmly and slowly, and the MG34 machine gun in front of the turret is still pouring deadly tongues of fire, and any enemy in front of it will be torn to pieces......
"Click!"
On a street behind the last Japanese position on the street, a muscular artilleryman in a gray military uniform struggled to load nearly 15.8 kilograms of shells into the barrel of an M1941 120mm heavy mortar. At this time, the 3rd Guards Division had already killed red eyes, and after understanding that the opposite side was the headquarters of the Japanese army, the officer in charge of directing the attack in addition to letting the Tiger tanks that had just arrived to attack, the heavy mortars assigned to their regiment were pulled up.
"Boom! Boom! ”
With the shout of the officer in gray military uniform on the side, the heavy mortar ground position was immediately enveloped by a dull cannon sound, and the whistling sound of the shells piercing the air broke the silence between heaven and earth and immediately became the only sound between heaven and earth, because the shelling was so fierce that the Tiger tank that was originally moving was forced to retreat dozens of meters to avoid such fierce artillery fire.
A civilian house occupied by the Japanese army was immediately hit directly by a shell, and with a huge explosion, the wreckage of the Japanese army in the civilian house was thrown into the air more than ten meters by a huge shock wave. Sato Kono, who was observing not far away, was dragged into a bunker by two guards, and could only watch as the artillery of the Chinese army bombarded them indiscriminately, and at this time he could only pray that the shelling of the Chinese people would stop soon.
It's just that Sato Konoe disappointed that the Chinese cannonballs lasted for more than ten minutes as if they were not used up, and there was no sign of an end, Sato Konoe took a breath and climbed out of the bunker to look outside, he didn't expect to survive the battle, and his biggest wish at this time was to kill more Huaxia soldiers before he died.
"Boom!"
A shell of more than 30 pounds exploded next to Sato Konoe, a few seconds ago, the originally neat bunker was blown apart in the explosion, a big tree outside the bunker was directly hit by the shell, sawdust and branches and leaves splashed everywhere, Sato was dizzy by the close shell, he no longer dared to show his head and could only quietly wait for the end of the shelling. It's just that this rudimentary bunker built with door panels and wooden beams can withstand it is really bottomless in his heart, and from time to time there are soil particles falling down the cracks in the shock wave generated by the explosion of the cannonball, and the empty lunch box on the wooden table in the bunker is shaken up and down from time to time, and after the spoon hits, there is a crisp metal impact sound from time to time.
Dizzy and dizzy from the previous shelling, Konoe Sato, who had just come back to his senses, shook the dust in his collar and looked out from the observation hole, and the shells fell on the street like rain, and the smoke and dust raised by the shells that fell into the bunker from time to time and the limbs of the Japanese soldiers who blew up scattered, and finally waited for the shelling to stop, when Sato Konoe struggled to get up from the bunker that was about to be blown up, and got out of his head to observe the situation, a terrible whistling sound suddenly came into his ears, Soon a loud explosion covered the bunker he was in......
"Whew...... Whew! ”
Kurahashi Yuichiro ran desperately towards the west gate of Fuzhou, he could guarantee that he had never tried to run so hard when he was so big, although it was now winter, but his clothes had already been wet with sweat, and the whole person's throat and eyes were almost smoking as if they were being burned with a piece of red-hot iron, but this pampered Shaozo did not complain a word, but still ran hard, he ran so fast that the Japanese soldiers behind him almost couldn't keep up with his pace.
"Everyone speed up, as long as we rush out of the city gate and then go to the river, get on the boat and cross the river, we will be safe!" Kurahashi Yuichiro turned his head to cheer up the soldiers behind him while running, and it was also a loss for Kurahashi Yuichiro to take a step earlier, otherwise if he delayed for more than ten minutes, the garrison division would have encircled their area, but even so they still encountered sporadic Huaxia vanguard troops one after another, Kurahashi Yuichiro did not entangle with these people, but ordered to leave a few troops to cover, and he led the troops desperately without looking back.
When Yuichiro Kurahashi, who was still a little worried in his heart, came to the city gate, the things that worried him did not appear, and there was no shadow of the Chinese army at the entire city gate. A big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, Yuichiro Kurahashi shouted in a hoarse voice: "Hurry up, hurry up and get out of the city!" ”
Just as the group came out of the city gate, a soldier suddenly shouted: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, there is someone in front!" ”
"Whoa......
As soon as the soldier's words fell, the surrounding Japanese soldiers immediately scattered in a few seconds, some lying on the ground ready to shoot, some found cover to protect their bodies, and Yuichiro Kurahashi had already been protected by two guards.
"Prepare to ......" a squad leader shouted loudly, but the "shooting" stopped before it could be shouted, only to see a soldier pointing ahead and shouting: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, it seems that our people are in front!" ”
"Huh...... Are there our troops here too? Yuichiro Kurahashi couldn't help but be taken aback, he remembered that after the battle began, Sato Konoe had ordered all the troops to shrink into the city, so how could there be people? Confused, he shouted in front of him; "Whoever is in front, report the number immediately, or we will shoot!"
"Don't shoot, don't shoot, we're the second squadron of the garrison!" A voice sounded from the front.
Hearing the voice of the visitor, Yuichiro Kurahashi couldn't help but feel relieved, the other party not only spoke fluent Japanese, but also had a Kansai accent. After hearing the accent of the visitor, Yuichiro Kurahashi frowned at first, and then relaxed.
"It's okay, it's all my own people!" Yuichiro Kurahashi was the first to stand up and walk forward.
After the two sides walked in, Yuichiro Kurahashi found that the number of the other party was also quite large, enough to have a team of about fifty people.
At this time, Kurahashi Yuichiro found out that the other party was leading an officer wearing the rank of lieutenant, only to see the person who came to Kurahashi Yuichiro and "snapped" and saluted loudly: "Report to Your Excellency Shaozuo, the fifth squad leader of the second squadron of the garrison brigade, Kono Zhengnan, is ordered to lead the team to guard the west city gate, please instruct!" ”
Yuichiro Kurahashi asked unhappily: "Your Excellency the Wing Commander has ordered all the troops to move closer to the city in the early hours of this morning, why don't you obey the order?" ”
I saw the lieutenant on the opposite side puzzled and said, "Your Excellency, our team has not received this order." ”
"What, I didn't get an order, this can't be? Nakamura-kun, what's going on? Yuichiro Kurahashi turned his head and asked a second lieutenant behind him, if he remembered correctly, that order this morning was conveyed by him.
The second lieutenant's expression also became a little puzzled, and he hurriedly defended: "Your Excellency, I am sure that this order must have been transmitted to all the troops, I remember that I called all the garrison troops at that time, and all the staff officers at that time could testify to this. I suspect that these Kansai Yankees must have been greedy for life and afraid of death, and deliberately hid here under the pretext that they didn't receive orders! ”
"Yaga!" Kono Zhengnan let out a loud shout, Kurahashi Yuichiro and his party saw it clearly, Kono Zhengnan's face immediately changed, I saw him stride forward a few steps to the second lieutenant and whispered in a voice full of anger: "You Kanto Yankee, say what you just said again!" ”
In the eyes of outsiders, the Yamato nation is a very united nation, and tens of millions of people have been able to gather under the banner of successive emperors to work hard for Japan. However, few people know that regional discrimination in Japan is also very serious, and the most famous examples are the Kanto and Kanto regions.
Historically, Japan has had two centers, one of which is the urban area with the capital Tokyo as the core, called "Kanto". One is the urban area centered on the ancient capitals of Nara and Kyoto, which is called "Kansai".
The Kanto and Kansai people have a long history of despising and fighting each other. For the Kansai people, they just look down on the Kanto people, thinking that the Kanto people are nouveau riche, impersonal, and have no cultural heritage - what is so great about Tokyo being the capital, Kyoto and Nara have never been the capital. And the Kanto people look down on the Kansai people the same, thinking that the Kansai people are dirt buns, profiteers since ancient times, always clinging to the glory of the past, and have the book to catch up with their own economy in the Kanto region in advance.
In addition to the political disagreement, the difference between Kanto and Kansai people is more significant in life - moving from Kanto to Kansai, the first thing to consider is whether you have enough money to replace electrical appliances, when the electricity began to be connected, Kanto people learned the American model, Kansai people preferred to learn from Europe, and the power grid specifications of the two urban areas were very different - ordinary electrical appliances used in Kanto could not be used in Kansai at all, and vice versa for electrical appliances in Kansai. Just now, the lieutenant named Kono Zhengnan didn't get angry when he heard that this second lieutenant had insulted him in front of him.
"I ......" The second lieutenant's face changed a little when he heard this, the reason why he suddenly said the last sentence just now was purely subconsciously, but he didn't think about it, but it poked at the taboo of others. I want to apologize, but I can't pull my face, after all, my boss and so many soldiers behind me are watching, if I apologize to this Kansaiyan, where will my face be in the future?
Just as the lieutenant was still hesitating to apologize, a black object appeared in front of his eyes.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the ensign, who had received a fist in the face, fell down, and the whole person fell heavily to the ground.
"Yaga, what are you doing?"
After the second lieutenant fell to the ground, Yuichiro Kurahashi quit, the Chinese people have said that it depends on the owner to beat the dog, you Kansai Yankee dare to beat my subordinates in front of me, isn't this slapping me in the face?
Yuichiro Kurahashi, who was in a hurry, immediately took a few steps forward and came to the front of Kono Zhengnan, raised his right hand and slapped him heavily.
"Smack"
Kono Zhengnan, who also received a slap in the face, covered his face and glared at Yuichiro Kurahashi and asked, "Your Excellency Shaoza, are you Kanto people planning to bully us Kansai people?" ”
"I ......"
Yuichiro Kurahashi slapped the other party before feeling a trace of remorse welling up in his heart, in fact, ordinary officials know that the most taboo thing in combat troops is unfair rewards and punishments, especially between regions. It was obvious that it was because of his subordinate who insulted the Kansai people that he provoked the other party to be angry. It stands to reason that in this kind of situation surrounded by outsiders, Yuichiro Kurahashi should deal with it impartially, and he should not help each other, even if he is playing fifty boards each, it is good, but he also gave the other party a slap in the face very strangely, which gave the other party an obvious signal, that is, he, the commander, will only help his subordinates, so that the atmosphere between the two sides immediately suddenly became tense.
I only heard a fierce glint in Kono Zhengnan's eyes, and shouted at him: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, it seems that you have made up your mind to embarrass us Kansai people, so don't blame us for being sorry." ”
After Kono Zhengnan finished speaking, he saw him glance at the soldiers behind him, only to see that these soldiers immediately aimed the weapons in their hands at them, and with the sound of a "click, click" bolt, a burst of gunfire rang out.
"Bang Bang ......"
"Da Da Da ......"
Yuichiro Kurahashi and the soldiers behind him never dreamed that it was originally just a small quarrel, and the other party would directly pull out a gun to kill, and after just over ten seconds, there was no one standing in front of Kono Zhengnan and them.
Yuichiro Kurahashi, who fell in a pool of blood, never dreamed that he would be killed by a subordinate, the world is too crazy, right? He let out a "ho-ho" sound in his throat after being shot in the lung, and then asked with difficulty
"For ...... Why...... Why should you ...... ...... for us Shoot? We...... We're all soldiers of the Japanese Empire! ”
I saw that Lieutenant Kono Zhengnan slowly walked up to him and squatted down, and smiled at Yuichiro Kurahashi who was lying on the ground: "I'm really sorry Your Excellency, we are no longer Hirohito's soldiers, now we have another name, we are all members of the Japanese National Salvation Army." ”
"Day...... Japanese National Salvation Army? ”
Yuichiro Kurahashi's eyes were wider than a bull's eye at this time, and he never dreamed that he would encounter the legendary Japanese National Salvation Army.
"You ......" Yuichiro Kurahashi trembled and pointed at the other party and shouted angrily: "You traitor to the Japanese Empire, you can't ...... well"
He died with wide eyes before the last word was spoken.
A few minutes later, an excited voice rang out: "Sir, I found the flag of the 261st Wing......" (To be continued. )
