In this way, the Chinese army used blood and lives to plug the gaps that were broken open by the Japanese tanks one by one, and what is particularly valuable is that all this was organized by the soldiers spontaneously, relying on consciousness rather than the command of Zhang Chi or Wu Yuhang. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This made Wu Yuhang still feel like he was in a dream when the battle line stabilized, and he couldn't rest assured that he personally went to several positions that were broken through by the Japanese army and ran around, and only after he was sure that he was stable did he put his mind at ease and called Zhang Chi.

"Master! Prevented, we repelled the attack of the devils! Wu Yuhang's voice was trembling as he spoke.

"What? Prevented? Zhang Chi was still a little unconvinced: "You mean...... You repelled the charge of the devil tanks? ”

"Yes!" Wu Yuhang replied: "According to preliminary estimates, we have sacrificed more than 300 people, and they are all good...... No one retreated, and they blocked the devil back! ”

Speaking of this, Wu Yuhang's tears couldn't help but fall.

Zhang Chi nodded silently, he understood Wu Yuhang's mentality at this time, Zhang Chi was also a person who came from this kind of scene, and knew what it was like to survive by relying on the unity of his comrades-in-arms and the desperate battle of everyone at a critical moment.

There are flukes, touches, and shame in this feeling...... It's a fluke because it can survive in such a situation and still win; moved because there are so many good comrades-in-arms and good brothers who sacrificed their lives to save their lives; Shame because...... So many people have sacrificed, why don't you have yourself?!

"Well played!" After a pause, Zhang Chi said: "Organize defense immediately, you can't take it lightly, these devils in front of you are not easy to deal with!" ”

"Yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chi breathed a sigh of relief.

The fighters are all good, and in such a situation, they can turn defeat into victory and beat the devil back.

As a matter of fact, Zhang Chi had already made the worst plan just now, that is, to use artillery to bombard the second regiment intensively outside the defense line, and at the same time send amphibious landing vehicles and Higgins boats to rob people overnight to take the second regiment out of the beach.

Of course, there was a great danger in doing so, because by then the Japanese were already mixed with the expeditionary force, and a single grenade thrown into the amphibious landing vehicle and the Higgins ship in the dark of night would cause a lot of casualties. But Zhang Chi didn't care so much anymore, he only thought about how much he could save.

Finally, it is very likely that the expeditionary force will not be able to attack Japan because of its casualties, which will cause a chain reaction that will eventually worsen the Chinese battlefield.

However, the brave actions of the warriors succeeded in turning the situation around, and they saved not only themselves, but also the entire battle.

The impact of this battle on the Japanese side can also be described by the word "shock".

Because just as Zhang Chi and Wu Yuhang both believed that the Second Regiment would collapse at the moment when the Japanese tanks broke through the defensive line, the Japanese commanders Tadamichi Kuribayashi and Yoshitaka Horie also thought that the Japanese army would definitely be settled in this battle.

But the result was a surprise to everyone...... The Japanese were beaten back after paying a lot of casualties, and this time the casualties even exceeded the casualties of the previous attack.

"How so!" Tadamichi Kuribayashi was furious at this result, and he grabbed the collar of Osaka Osa, who came back with a disgraced face, and scolded: "Bastard! Do you know what kind of opportunity you lost? This is an opportunity for us to sacrifice 28 tanks and a large number of shells, and it is an opportunity to annihilate more than 3,000 enemy regiments, and Chinese may even retreat because of this, but you ......"

Saying that, Kuribayashi Tadamichi pushed Kosaka Osa back fiercely: "Now all this is ruined because of you and your troops!" What else do you have to say?! ”

Osaka Daichi stepped forward and replied: "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, I have nothing to say, this is my shame, I will definitely apologize for my crimes, but ...... Before doing so, I would like to state that Your Excellency Lieutenant General ...... It's not that we're not brave in fighting, it's not that we're not resolute in fighting. But...... The combat effectiveness of these Chinese people is unexpectedly strong, and it is completely different from the Chinese we have seen, and it is not the same as the Americans described by friendly forces......"

"Let's go down......" Kuribayashi Tadamichi snorted, interrupting Osaka's words.

"Yes!" Osaka Osa answered, silently put on his military hat, and prepared to go back to fulfill what he just said, that is, to apologize for his crimes.

But just as Osaka turned around, Kuribayashi Tadamichi emphatically said, "Kosaka-kun, remember my orders...... Everyone has to kill ten enemies to have the right to die, and you're no exception, understand?! ”

Osaka Osa couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then quickly understood that Kuribayashi Tadamichi had spared his life, and hurriedly thanked Dade and bowed deeply to Kuribayashi Tadamichi.

In fact, Kuribayashi Tadadao had the intention to spare him, but this was the time to employ people, and Iwo Jima was still blocked by the Chinese Navy, and it was a bit inappropriate to self-destruct the Great Wall and let senior officers apologize for their own crimes.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General!" After Osaka Osaku left, Horie Yoshitaka said, "What Osaka Osaku said may be right, the Chinese army we are facing is ...... Probably different from all the armies we've encountered before! "of

"Hmm!" Kuribayashi Tadamichi nodded with a calm face.

In fact, Kuribayashi Tadamichi had known this for a long time, and he had studied this Chinese force before coming to Iwo Jima, but he did not expect this Chinese force to be so strong.

"If that's the case...... "I don't think it's appropriate for us to attack these Chinese troops again, even at night, but rather on defense!" ”

"Hmm!" Tadamichi Kuribayashi agreed.

In fact, it would be impossible for Japan to launch another such attack, partly because the Japanese only had 22 tanks left, and partly because this kind of sneak attack could be used once but not a second...... The next time the Chinese army will definitely take precautions in this regard, and then it will not only fail to break through its defenses, but may even jump into the trap set by the Chinese army.

So...... The Japanese army seemed to have only one choice, and that was to rely on the tunnels to hold on.

Also thinking about this problem is Zhang Chi.

Zhang Chi knew that it was not easy for the Japanese army to organize such a sneak attack, which can be seen from the large number of tanks and artillery shells it had put in.

And after this sneak attack was unsuccessful, it is very likely that the Japanese will completely or to a considerable extent dispel the idea that the Japanese army will take advantage of the darkness to defeat the Chinese troops or drive them into the sea.

Then, the next step is to face the old problem again...... How should the Chinese troops fight, and from which direction should they fight?! (To be continued.) )
