Chapter 282: Dessert After a Big Meal
Smiling and watching the officers and soldiers raise their steel guns high, throw their steel helmets high, and watch them celebrate their victory with loud chanting, Liu Lang continued to announce his order: "
"At the same time, I told the commanders that the main force of the 8th Division and the 6th Division of the Japanese Army is about to attack the Luo Wenyu Pass, and the 7,000 soldiers of our independent regiment, the 288th regiment, the 289th regiment and the three regiments will defend our territory, raise the prestige of our country, and fight to the death without retreating."
At this moment, Liu Lang was standing on the land of northern China, standing in front of the body of the Japanese officer who was killed, with long eyebrows and sideburns, and a deafening voice.
When he said loudly "fight to the death and never retreat", there seemed to be a kind of light on his body, which overshadowed the rising sun.
This is the man who stands up to the sky, Ji Yanxue looked at the man who was not heroic in appearance, but there was no man who could compare with him, and he was extremely intoxicated.
"Fight to the death." The school officials closest to Liu Lang raised their arms one after another and shouted loudly.
At this moment, the blood in their chests had boiled to the top.
"Fight to the death and not retreat, fight to the death and not retreatγγγγγγ" The shouts of the soldiers emanated from the center of the position to the whole field.
The steel spears raised high and the flushed young faces issued a declaration of battle to the 25,000 Japanese troops who were galloping.
In fact, they did it too, in the coming January.
The huge sound even reached high in the air, and the pilots of the Japanese bombers, who had been flying from the Shenyang base for two and a half hours, heard a strange sound more than a dozen miles away, and the sound seemed to drown out the huge roar of the engine.
The sirens of "enemy aircraft are coming" sounded, and the cheering Chinese soldiers took refuge in the fortifications at the first time.
This is not the time to be a hero, and the Chinese soldiers, who have already transformed into elites, are quick to react.
The soldiers who were hiding gritted their teeth and looked at the enemy planes flying more and more clearly from afar, but they were helpless, the only thing they could do was to hide themselves better.
"Dog, if you give Lao Tzu an anti-aircraft artillery company, look at the little devil and dare to be so arrogant." Tang Yongming, who had always behaved elegantly, looked at the two enemy planes painted with plaster flags that had begun to dive and observe from far and near, and smashed his fist angrily on the earthen wall of the trench.
The national army, which lacked anti-aircraft guns, hated the Japanese planes the most, and it was not pleasant to be beaten and unable to counterattack. Moreover, their firepower is also strong enough, a series of aerial bombs are dropped, and the national troops on the positions often suffer heavy casualties, and the power of aerial bombs weighing several hundred kilograms is not comparable to howitzers and other artillery.
"Hehe, Deputy Tang Tuan don't have to worry too much, it's right that we had a big meal, but I didn't expect the little devil to worry that we weren't full and specially sent desserts after the meal, so we can't brush off the kindness of others, right?" Liu Lang smiled slightly.
Before Tang Yongming fully understood what he meant, Liu Lang turned his face sideways and said to Yu Xiancheng: "Chief of Staff, order the machine gun platoon of the fifth and sixth companies to start maneuvering towards Gushan, pay attention to safety, and at the same time order the heavy machine gunners of Zhou Shiyu's death company to stand by and start acting according to the previous plan." β
"Commander Liu, don't be impulsive, the firing range of the heavy machine gun is not high, and the range of the upward fire is too close, so it can't pose much threat to the aircraftγγγγγγ" Tang Yongming was taken aback by Liu Lang's order.
didn't care about losing Liu Lang's face, so he hurriedly persuaded him at the first time.
Whether it was a light machine gun or a heavy machine gun, the soldiers of the Nationalist Army who were bombed by the Japanese planes and were red-eyed tried to shoot in the air, but often not only did they not hit the enemy planes, but they were also frantically retaliated by the enemy planes, losing a few heavy firepower points and losing excellent and brave machine gun shooters.
Indeed, in this era dominated by propeller aircraft, the speeds were not very fast, but they also reached hundreds of kilometers per hour. Taking the A-4 fighter plane, which is currently the main equipment of the Japanese army, as an example, the maximum level flight speed has reached 232 kilometers per hour, and it flies fast and high enough that the probability of an untrained army machine gunner trying to shoot down an aircraft is indeed very small.
In fact, there are also regulations on air defense in field battles in the infantry drill code of the national army, which requires the concentration of two heavy machine guns and six light machine guns for air defense. It's just that the firepower of the national army itself is insufficient, and each company only has two light machine guns.
Therefore, the shooters who held machine guns with only one cavity of enthusiasm and fired at Japanese planes equipped with two machine guns naturally suffered heavy casualties.
Anyway, now that the battle has ended, in order to be safe, Tang Yongming thought that it would be better to hide first, it would be too cost-effective to lose soldiers for the sake of two belated Japanese planes.
Unexpectedly, not only did Liu Lang smile and wave his hand to tell him not to be too excited, Yu Xiancheng, who had always been more stable, actually said hello to Tang Yongming with a smile, and went straight to inform the communication platoon to send a telegram to Zhou Shiyu.
As a star pilot who had made remarkable achievements in bombing China's Northeast Army during the September 18 Incident in 1931, and flew back with 22 bombs in the whole fuselage and still flew back with injuries and was interviewed by Tokyo's "Asahi Shimbun", Uranaka Tomoo was very dissatisfied with being woken up from his warm bed early in the morning by the military order to support the Kwantung Army.
The Kwantung Army's self-esteemed guys were as stupid as pigs, and a brigade of thousands of people was surrounded by the Chinese army with backward rifles, which simply disgraced the Imperial Army. Lieutenant Uranaka, who was still part of the Army Aviation Corps, was extremely dissatisfied with his army allies.
The boring voyage of nearly 500 kilometers all the way raised Lieutenant Puzhong's anger to the highest value.
According to the navigational beacons, he had reached the battle site of the 4th Brigade of the 8th Division, and he could already see black smoke from the air because of the combustion.
It is necessary to teach the people of China a profound lesson, and Tomo Uranaka, who has accumulated anger against the stupid friendly army, is ready to vent his anger on the Chinese army with backward weapons.
It's just that as he approached the battlefield, his anger dissipated little by little, replaced by a coldness that went deep into his bone marrow.
The battlefield that was fighting in his imagination did not exist, and from the air, it was a dead silence, and if it weren't for the black smoke coming from the burning wood, he would definitely think that this was an empty land, where did the battle come from?
Don't? The 4th Brigade has already broken through victoriously? After suppressing the coldness in his heart and circling twice in the air without seeing the result, Lieutenant Uranaka ordered his wingman to be on alert in the air on the radio, and he carefully operated the plane to fly down the air, maintaining an altitude of 500 meters and passing through the valley at a high speed.
Tang Yongming said that the Japanese machine was unscrupulous, in fact, he really looked up to Uranaka Tomoo, who had been shot by two companies of machine guns and rifles of the Northeast Army in that battle in 1931 and was shot 22 bullets in the back, but he did not want to do it again, in that battle his wingman was hit by the Chinese with a rudimentary weapon that was not afraid of death, and finally the plane was destroyed and killed, and he was alive purely because Amaterasu blessed him with good luck.
The battlefield was still calm. It's just that the familiar earthy yellow military uniforms scattered everywhere stung Lieutenant Puzhong's eyes.
The two battlefields that are seven or eight miles apart, covered with the ground, are all in khaki military uniforms.
The fighting in one of the battlefields should have been over long ago, and the Chinese army even had time to arrange the bodies of army allies in an orderly manner, as if to demonstrate to him.
"Yaga." Uranaka slammed the dashboard angrily.
The 4th Brigade was completely wiped out? The anger that surged up made Uranaka forget his fears.
