Liutang, the newly formed 22nd Division blocked the position.

The positions on both sides of the highway were burning, thick black smoke rose from both sides of the position, and in the depths of the position, the sound of Type 24 heavy machine guns firing into the air was endless, inside and outside the position, a corpse with a German-style M35 steel helmet on its head and a gray coarse cloth military uniform overlapped with an earthy yellow corpse with a Type 90 steel helmet, maintaining the posture of fighting and stabbing hand-to-hand combat when fighting.

Many officers and soldiers of the two sides who tried to kill each other in the fight by all means before their lives now fell quietly to the ground, intertwined with the enemy's limbs, and lay on the ground like brothers.

The same is true of guns and ammunition, short neutral rifles, slender three-eight large caps, Czech, eleven-year-old light machine guns, long-handled grenades, grenadiers, broken bayonets, and indiscriminate discarding on the battlefield, and the owners of these equipment are mostly those corpses on the ground.

Corpses and weapons were scattered from the road to the fields on both sides, showing that there had been one fierce battle after another here, and the new 22nd Division's blocking position was still burning with raging fires, and the corpses of unknown sides were scorched by the fierce flames, emitting a strange smell of burning. The fire burned, but there was little tendency to weaken, and the surface temperature increased by a few degrees.

The vegetation in the fields on both sides of the road has been scorched.

Here, two hours after the victory at Kunlun Pass, the new 22nd Division blocked the battlefield.

Gusts of cold wind blew, the smell of roasting, permeated the entire battlefield, the battlefield overhead, the deafening roar gradually disappeared, the black pressure of the Japanese aircraft group, long away, flying in the direction of Kunlun Pass.

The highway sandwiched in the middle by the field is no longer as smooth and intact as it used to be, and the highway in the battlefield area is full of craters and dead bodies, and the repeated fire attacks and bombardments of the Japanese army have almost scrapped this section of the road, and the direct hit of the aerial bomb hit the road, cutting out several huge deep pits on the road, and with the current road conditions, even if the Miki detachment broke through the defense line of the new 22nd Division, its large troops could not quickly pass the road.

A Soviet-made T26 combat vehicle. Across the road, the chariot turret painted with the blue sky and white sun badge is intact, a national charioteer is half exposed outside the turret, blood is stained on the turret of the battlefield, the charioteer's bare hand outside the car, still holding the Browning pistol that has run out of bullets, and the body has ablation marks.

The body under the T26 tank is like a sieve, deformed, the body is full of bullet holes, the tracks have fallen off, the tracks are stained with flesh, lying on the road, the front of the body is dented, and the front of the body is dented, and the front of the body is pierced by the continuous firing of the 94-type 37 rapid-fire shells, forming a trumpet-like damaged shape, and the remains of the tank driver are unwillingly broken at the trumpet-shaped gap, shedding a pool of coagulated blood.

Around the tank, there were a large number of Japanese corpses, either intact or scattered on the road like meatloaf. On the road, there were also shallow craters opened by several 45-mm tank shells.

The crushed 11-year-old light machine guns and 38 rifles illustrate how embarrassed these Japanese soldiers who died around the tank were when they were raided.

Here, it was the New 22nd Division's blocking position two hours after the Japanese army was destroyed at Kunlun Pass, and since the Teaching Brigade was separated from the New 22nd Division and placed directly under the army, the New 22nd Division and the Japanese Miki Detachment from the Nanning direction launched a fierce confrontation.

Kunlun Pass is the core battlefield, here is the peripheral reinforcement, but the intensity and intensity of the battle, compared with the frontal attack of Kunlun Pass, is more than that, the main force of the new 22nd Division is thousands of people, and the Miki detachment under the cover of the air launched a bloody battle.

The Fifth Army reinforced a number of chariots for the New 22nd Division, and the officers and men of the New 22nd Division fought fiercely with the Japanese troops of the Miki Detachment for several days. Madman Qiu personally went to the front line to command, and in the end, with all the strength of the first division, withstood the attack of the Miki detachment.

They did not let the Miki detachment, which was tasked with reinforcing Kunlun Pass, take a step forward here.

After the attack of the Miki detachment failed again, the Japanese planes came one after another, flew over the battlefield, dropped a large number of bombs, incendiary bombs, and shotguns containing steel balls, and turned the battlefield into a fire field, and the fire continued unabated, precisely because the arson materials in the Japanese bombs continued to burn.

The trenches on both sides of the highway are still firmly in the hands of the new 22nd Division.

……

In the trench on the left side of the road, three gray-faced soldiers gathered together and hid together in a huge anti-artillery hole, and the Japanese army dispatched planes every day to bomb them, and the soldiers of the newly formed 22nd Division dug the trenches deeper and deeper, and the anti-artillery holes were dug more and more and more firmly.

The battlefield was full of incendiary bombs, arson materials and artillery smoke, and the soldiers of the new 22nd Front were exposed from within, and the sergeant platoon of the 2nd Platoon of the 8th Company of the 3rd Battalion of the 66th Regiment attached Huang Wu and untied the steel helmet, and there was a 20-ring gun box sitting under the buttocks, and the bottom of the trench was full of knocked out rifle machine gun shells.

Huang Wu took the mottled kettle from another squad leader with his left hand, poured some water into his right hand, touched his chapped lips, smacked his mouth, and handed the kettle to He Zihua, the second lieutenant platoon commander next to him.

In the anti-artillery hole, there was a scorching smell of Japanese incendiary bombs, as well as the smell of gunpowder fired by bullets, which made all the soldiers in the trenches feel a sense of gagging.

"Platoon commander, do you want to drink saliva?"

He Zihua was a second lieutenant platoon commander of the second platoon of the Eighth Company, graduated from the 14th Huangpu period, and had just been assigned to the new 22nd Division as a platoon commander before the war.

He Zihua was carrying the Zhongzheng rifle, his mood was a little depressed, and he stretched out his sour hand that pulled the bolt of the gun, and took the kettle from Huang Wu's hand.

"Thank you."

Huang Wu nodded: "Platoon commander, don't be sad, the three platoon commanders died heroically, the brothers all saw it, and the company has already reported the matter of the three platoon commanders to the battalion, and the three platoon commanders can't die in vain. ”

Sergeant Huang Wu, in the tone of He Zihua's speech, there is no contempt, He Zihua's group of platoon commanders have just left the army for only a few months, according to the old rules in the grassroots of the army, for the old squad leaders and non-commissioned officers who have just graduated and newly left the army, the veterans are usually not birds, at least the whole is the norm, and it is normal for the new platoon commander to have a bad time in the army within a few months.

The second lieutenant platoon commander and lieutenant platoon commander of the new unit are not rectified for a few months, but they will be the head of the army for a few months, and they will not want to have weight when they speak in the platoon.

When encountering a stunned new platoon commander, it is not uncommon for veterans to teach a lesson.

The main purpose of this is to kill the prestige of the new platoon commander and let the new platoon commander see what it means to be in the ranks.

However, He Zihua, the platoon commander who has been tempered by the teaching brigade, after getting out of the army, showed the combat quality of not losing to the soldiers, and he was also very down-to-earth in all aspects, and he was not as arrogant as the previous military academy students, but not long after he got out of the army, he got into a fight with the veterans and became a "real platoon commander" Therefore, this Huang Wu can speak to He Zihua in this tone on the battlefield.

"Lao Huang, you're right, you deserve to die, you deserve to die."

He Zihua took off the M35 steel helmet above his head and sighed.

What the two are talking about is the platoon commander of the third platoon of the Eighth Company, and similarly, this platoon commander named Yu Liang is also a student of the 14th period, and he was assigned to the New 22nd Division in the same batch as He Zihua, and was trained in the teaching brigade in the same batch, and later was assigned to the 66th Regiment as a platoon commander at the same time, which can be described as a close classmate.

Just an hour ago, the Miki detachment once again launched an assault on the position of the new 22nd Division, and the officers and men of the 66th Regiment fought desperately, and in the battle, the third platoon of the 8th Company was at the forefront, and it was the avant-garde platoon, and this platoon fought to the death with the Japanese army, and almost all of them were exhausted, and at the last moment, the Japanese troops of the two squads surrounded the position of this platoon.

In order to stop the enemy, platoon commander Yu Liang lured the Japanese troops with light machine gun fire, and feigned death in battle, and after the Japanese troops surrounded him, he detonated the whole box of grenades, died with the enemy, took away more than two detachments of Japanese troops, and made a great contribution to repelling the Japanese attack with his life.

It can be described as "extremely dead." ”

In fact, these days, with He Zihua, Yu Liang and other troops, there is more than one platoon leader who has been martyred, and there are four or five platoon commanders in the 66th Regiment alone, who died in a very heroic way.

He Zihua didn't think much about it, buckled the steel helmet on his head, and clenched the Zhongzheng rifle in his hand: "Lao Huang, keep an eye on the outside, maybe the devil is coming up again." ”

Huang Wu: "Understood. ”

……

A few miles away, in the field command post of the Miki detachment, it was very strangely secluded in the command post, and Miki Yoshinosuke Osa, trembling with a telegram on his face, had an expression of disbelief on his face.

This is a telegram sent from the headquarters of the Fifth Division in Nanning, the transmitter is none other than the telegram of Jun Imamura, the commander of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army.

In fact, the commander of the Fifth Division, Jun Imamura, who was under command in Nanning, behaved no different from Miki Yoshinosuke at this moment, and this telegram to Miki was actually a retreat order, and the telegram brought the results of aerial reconnaissance, and the Fourth Flying Regiment, the 64th and 31st Squadrons of the Japanese Army Air Corps, which had just completed the bombing mission of the New 22nd Division, had just completed the bombing mission not long ago, and flew over Kunlun Pass.

The Japanese planes, which were supposed to carry out the bombing support mission, saw not a bloody battlefield, but empty heights, devastated positions, and a large number of burial pits, and thick smoke still rising from the surface, but not even a single shadow could be seen on the battlefield.

What does this mean, it goes without saying, the Japanese machine immediately reported the battlefield situation to the division headquarters of the Fifth Division, Imamura was shocked when he learned that all the defenders of Kunlun Pass were shattered, at first, Imamura did not believe it at all, he did not believe that an independent combat unit with an elite infantry brigade as the backbone and strengthened a large number of infantry artillery workers was annihilated by the Chinese army like this?

As the division commander of the Fifth Division of the Steel Army, Imamura does not believe in it, and he does not believe it alive or dead!

Imamura Jun even asked the Japanese planes to circle the battlefield several more times, search carefully several times, and repeatedly use the radio to contact the Kunlun Pass garrison, which had been lost for a long time.

At this point, Imamura slowly accepted the reality.

The bad news is not only that the Kunlun Pass defenders were shattered, just last night, the reinforcements from the Fifth Army's Honorary First Division and the Japanese Army's 21st Brigade were repeatedly fiercely fought, and in the night battle, the 82nd mortar of the Honorary 1st Division wounded the commander of the 21st Brigade, Nakamura Masao, and in the early morning, the commander of the Nakamura Masao Brigade was seriously injured and shattered.

The Kunlun Pass defenders were annihilated, the brigade commander of the reinforcements was killed, and the fifth division was completely meaningless at this time, in addition to the Fifth Army, the Chinese army in addition to the 36th Army, the 66th Army, the 46th Army, the 99th Army, the 2nd Army and other troops, after the Kunlun Pass defenders were shattered, there was a faint counterattack to the 5th Division in the direction of Nanning, which was not a good situation, after all, it was more than a dozen infantry divisions of the Chinese army! Among them, there was no shortage of the main forces of the Central Army.

Moreover, when Imamura counted the battlefield losses, he found that quietly, the infantry brigade of Guangcheng was divided into two, one was the first brigade of the 21st Wing, the so-called Takeda Brigade (yes, it was the brigade that was eaten by the Teaching Brigade in cooperation with the 65th Regiment), and then the 2nd Brigade of the 42nd Wing under the Kunlun Pass Garrison (the Teaching Brigade was also the "culprit" who annihilated them).

In a siege-breaking strategy, only the formed infantry brigade lost two.

Two brigades were lost in the battle, and if you add the piecemeal combat casualties in each battle, the total casualties of the Fifth Division are as high as about 7,000 people!

That is to say, at present, the Fifth Division is suffering serious battle losses, and the enemy has the tendency to counterattack and expand the results of the battle, and the battle situation has reached an extremely dangerous situation unconsciously!

Imamura Jun decided to shrink the troops immediately, so he sent a telegram to the Miki detachment to retreat, shrink the troops, and organize a retreat, which is the only choice for Imamura Jun at present, and it is also the wisest decision.

……

"Yaga!" Miki cursed, slamming the telegram on the table.

Miyamoto, the captain of the 2nd Infantry Brigade of the 21st Wing, who was hanging on his shoulders, leaned over and comforted.

"Your Excellency Dazuo, the matter has come to this, our department can only retreat first, the warriors of the Kunlun Pass defenders have been martyred, and the reinforcements of our army are meaningless, if you don't retreat now, if the Chinese army outflanks you, then ......"

In the end, Miyamoto couldn't go on.

In the end, Miki still had to recognize the reality and waved his hand to Miyamoto's second young sausa.

"Alas, I think that my Fifth Division, the dignified Steel Army, has encountered such a situation, these Chinese troops are really the fierce enemies of our army, order a retreat, twenty minutes later, the various divisions alternately cover and leave the battlefield......"

Twenty minutes later, the Miki detachment, which had failed to attack the positions of the new 22nd Division for many times, withdrew in disarray.

The withdrawal of the Miki detachment also represented the failure of the Fifth Division's battle to relieve the siege of Kunlun Pass, and the operation to cut off the communication line in South China was also temporarily put aground, and the fierce battle between the Chinese and Japanese armies with the battle for Kunlun Pass as the core came to an end.

The Fifth Division, which had been wounded, had no choice but to shrink its troops, withdraw in disarray, and break away from the battle with the Chinese army.

The bloody battle between the two sides in Kunlun Pass and Guinan ended with the active retreat of the Japanese army.
