Bullets rained down everywhere, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the human body was as fragile as glass in the face of this terrible weapon. It was the KWK30 20 mm cannon that Rheinsteel was proud of, and it was the main weapon of the No. 2 tank, which was once the main force of the German Army, and was also installed on some military armored vehicles as a supplement to the initial anti-armor firepower. This improved version of the famous Surothong ST-5 cannon inherited the outstanding accuracy and reliability of the original gun, with a rate of fire of 280 rounds per minute during bursts, and a full 20-round magazine can be emptied in five seconds. At this time, Sasaki's squad was subjected to the accumulation of four weapons, and the situation on the battlefield was reversed in an instant, turning into a bloody massacre of Japanese infantry.

The armored reconnaissance platoon directly under the guard brigade is the only armored fire unit of this battalion-level guard unit, because it is mobile and flexible and has a certain defensive capability, and the firepower can crush all the infantry who only have light weapons, so it is regarded as the absolute main force in the team, and the armored reconnaissance platoon has received great attention from the officers and soldiers of the brigade, and every time they can get priority supplies, and the companions in the team also express their understanding and never jealousy. Now it's time for the platoon to repay the collective with their results, and the entire brigade is watching their performance behind them, and whether their operations are smooth or not will directly affect the morale of the entire team. What's more, in order to rescue the Powell crew, in order to maintain the dignity and honor of the Führer and the empire, the entire brigade is united in hatred of the enemy, and the armored reconnaissance platoon, as the vanguard, must make a satisfactory start for everyone.

The start of the armored reconnaissance platoon was indeed eye-catching, and the Japanese did not expect that the other side would have reinforcements at all, because the two sides had been entangled for so long, and the other side had never shown any desire to run away for help. The Japanese always thought that this was an armored vehicle of the Chinese Army, but they never thought that this small armored car was equipped with a luxurious radio communication system.

Out of the reserve of the squadron leader, Captain Kuno did not rush into battle in person, but handed over the task of taking the target to Second Lieutenant Sasaki, the leader of the first squad. The situation at that time was that the Japanese had already gained the upper hand, the armored vehicle was completely suppressed by fire, and the enemy was no longer able to return fire. From the point of view of Ensign Sasaki. This is simply the good fortune bestowed on him by the gods and Buddhas, and capturing such a dead dog-like target is as easy as digging for something.

Thinking about Nakamura, who died tragically before, Sasaki couldn't help but lament that his colleagues were too impatient, not only killing himself and a group of soldiers, but also missing this battle in vain. Sasaki clasped his hands together and secretly made a wish that after returning to Tokyo, he would definitely go to Kudanzaka and light a few more incense candles in front of the other party's tablet he was not welcome now, and he had given it to Mas greatly.

Military merit is a good thing, of course, everyone has a share, and Ensign Sasaki, who has always managed the team with a paternal mentality. With all the soldiers in his squad embarked on the final journey. Forty-seven Japanese soldiers followed behind the commander, hula swarmed forward, because of the surrounding terrain, they could not clear the loose skirmish line, plus the soldiers of each detachment were eager to make meritorious contributions, and they scrambled with each other, so that when they were halfway through, the team began to crowd together on the road.

Sasaki hurriedly ordered the team to spread out on both sides of the road. Not so much because of the fear of being attacked, but because the squadron leader was watching from behind. The team's performance right now is a bit embarrassing. Just when Sasaki's squad continued to attack Powell's crew while adjusting its formation, the German armored reconnaissance platoon finally arrived in time, and the reconnaissance platoon commander Ensign Herp, who found that the situation was critical, immediately gave the order for all attacks. Second Lieutenant Sasaki rushed to chase Nakamura with more than half of his subordinates, not only saving him a sum of money for incense and candles, but also getting a small pension for his family.

Armored reconnaissance platoon commander Fox. Feng. Second Lieutenant Help was a young SS officer with a proud personality, who graduated with honors from the SS Junkers School and was regarded by his superiors as the rising star of the SS. He was also personally received by Himmler. As a traditional descendant of the Junker aristocracy, von . From an early age, Ensign Help dreamed of becoming a great war hero, and after being exposed to Nazi ideas in secondary school, he became a loyal follower of the Nazi Party. The young man believed that as a representative of the traditional German elite, he had an obligation to stand up and devote himself to the cause of saving Germany, so after graduating from high school, he resolutely gave up the entrance examination for the Dresden Infantry School, and instead switched to the same rank of SS Braunschweig Junker Academy, where he became the second class of cadets.

After twenty-two months of systematic study and rigorous training, at the time of graduation, Feng . Help was immediately awarded the rank of SS Commando Squadron Leader III. When he learned from his classmates that Himmler was preparing to form an elite special force, and that it was the Reich Führer who had given the order to do so, he immediately volunteered to submit a report to his superiors asking to join, because his conditions were so good that he was approved with little effort. Eventually he became the commander of the armored units of the Guards Brigade.

Now it was the first time in his military career that he really participated in real combat. It's just that the object of the battle is not the same as he originally imagined, and it turned out to be the Japanese who once had a good relationship with Germany. But at this time, who cares what the previous relationship is, since they dare to fire at the German army, then they must have the courage to become the enemy of Germany, and what makes him even more righteous and indignant is that these nasty Japanese monkeys are cowardly and do not dare to challenge head-on like knights, but launch an ambush and sneak attack without warning like despicable bandits, in the eyes of this noble child, these people's actions are completely unforgivable, and must be punished with iron and blood.

So the second lieutenant did just that, slaughtering most of the Japanese soldiers in a squad with a 20-millimeter machine gun and a side-by-side machine gun, in just fifteen seconds. After firing the shells in the magazines, the four armored vehicles restarted and began to approach the Powell crew at high speed.

Under the attack of the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun armor-piercing shells, the armored car was already riddled with holes at this time. The driver, Corporal Chuck, bore the brunt of the attack, was shot in multiple places all over his body, and had already collapsed in the driver's seat and stopped breathing. Powell was shot in the thigh and shoulder, and the machine-gun bullet after piercing the armor plate was badly deformed, but it caused more serious injuries to the occupants of the car than usual. The gunner also had an extra cartridge box on the front as a cover. Except for a bullet in the shoulder, he didn't suffer any other injuries in the subsequent battles. However, this armored car is only from the outside, and it is really a bit miserable.

Because the two sides were still exchanging fire, Second Lieutenant Help ordered another 222 armored vehicle belonging to Powell's squad to use a tow rope to tow the broken armored vehicle out of the battlefield, and then get out of the vehicle to transfer and rescue the wounded when it reached a safe position. In order to cover the crew responsible for the rescue, the remaining four 222 armored vehicles were staggered front and rear. They formed a small diagonal formation and blocked the front of Powell's armored vehicles, while using the reloaded 20-mm machine gun to launch a stormy burst of fire at the 92 heavy machine gun on the Japanese position.

Under the suppression of the fire of the four 20-mm machine guns, the heavy machine gun crew, which had not yet had time to transfer, was reduced to flying pieces along with the machine gun before it could even shout. Immediately the four German armored vehicles reversed their firepower and began to fire freely at the Japanese infantry positions while advancing, and the bullet chains of the four MG34 machine guns and four machine guns were like the flame nine-tailed cat in the hands of the fire demon, swaying and sweeping the entire Japanese position, and the machine gun shells and machine gun shells easily penetrated the earthen breastwork and bunkers that the Japanese soldiers had hastily piled up before, creating bloody killings and completely crushing the morale of the remaining Japanese soldiers on the position.

Japanese soldiers are not clay wood carvings. In fact, they also have the seven emotions and six desires of ordinary people, and of course they will also be afraid of death, especially when they confirm that death is unstoppable, and their lives are no longer under their control, some Japanese soldiers who thought they were extremely brave in the past began to jump out of their bunkers and rush to the main position of the brigade to flee for their lives.

The Kuno squadron was already seriously understaffed, having suffered several rounds of crushing blows in a row, and the experienced veterans in the squadron had almost lost all of them in the previous battles. Most of the rest were recruits who were less than a year old, and they had only eleven months of infantry training. They have never really withstood the test of the battlefield, and this is also their first battle, and it is obvious that the difficulty of this test is too high, and these rookies are completely frightened.

"Don't retreat! Hold on! Captain Kuno now had a look of despair on his face, and he crouched in a half-dug foxhole, shouting loudly. Wants to stop the soldier's act of fleeing from the battlefield.

"Squadron Leader, the enemy's firepower is too strong, the terrain is also very unfavorable to us, and our troops are insufficient, I suggest that we should retreat. Reposition positions in the rear. It is also necessary to report to the brigade headquarters as soon as possible, and we must have encountered the main force of the Shina Army. Ono ran over with a rifle, and he shouted to Kuno as he lay on the edge of the foxhole.

"Yes, yes, Ono Caochang, what you said is very right, it must be the main force of the Shina Army. With so many advanced independent armored vehicles, it must be the mechanized Fifth Army of China. The French allowed this main branch to enter the country, which was a clear violation of their declared guarantee of neutrality. Kuno was like grasping at a life-saving straw, and he even began to sort out his thoughts and think about how to shirk the responsibility for the heavy losses caused by the defeat in the battle.

"Squadron Leader, give the order, we must retreat immediately!" Ono reminded from the side.

"Yes, retreat! Retreat! The 12th Squadron, all retreated, to the rear to regroup. Kuno shouted loudly.

"Squadron Leader order, retreat!"

"Retreat!"

"Who's going to pull me?"

"Please! Don't leave me behind! ”

"Aso! Yoshizawa! Hatano! Who's going to help me! ”

As the squadron commander gave the order, the positions of the 12th Squadron resounded with chaotic shouts, and some of the wounded who had difficulty moving screamed loudly, begging their comrades in the same unit to leave with them. Some of the wounded soldiers who were lucky enough to get the help of the health soldiers and their companions, but most of the wounded, because their comrades in the squad had been killed or wounded or had already fled, at this moment no one was afraid that they would not run fast enough, and no one was willing to risk reaching out to them, and finally most of the wounded soldiers were abandoned on the position, some of them had the physical strength to climb back for a distance, and more could only lie in place and listen to the arrangement of fate.

"My lord, I'll escort you out." Ono urged Kuno, who looked at the wounded soldiers struggling on the position, and was a little unbearable.

"Squadron Leader! Enemy! A large number of enemy troops! A large force of enemy troops has appeared ahead! Kawamura Gou, who was lying on a mountain rock as an observation guard, shouted loudly.

"Nani!" Hisano rushed to the rock, picked up his binoculars and looked ahead of the road.

"How could it be! Fake it! Kuno quickly adjusted the focus.

"Squadron Leader, it's not the Chinese Army! That's definitely not the Zhina Army! Ono exclaimed, too.

I saw a large force appear on the road far behind the four armored vehicles that were still firing intermittently. At the head of the road were several half-tracked armored vehicles that had only been seen in magazines, their blue-gray armor plates glistening in the sunlight, and groups of heavily armed infantry could be seen marching along the road in neat columns. Although the distance was still far away, Kuno could still clearly feel the solemn aura emanating from that army, which was definitely not the Shina army they had encountered.

"Gods and Buddhas, who can tell me who I am fighting against!" Stunned by his discovery, Kuno muttered to himself.
