Chapter 128: Two Hours
"Squat! All squatted down......"
As soon as the battle broke out, the "Chinese Brothers" were controlled by the bayonets and shouts of the Japanese soldiers, gathered into a pile and squatted in the fields on the side of the road.
The Japanese also feared that these Chinese prisoners of war would take advantage of the chaos to revolt, and they knew that these Chinese were not "obedient people".
"What's going on?" Wu Yan looked in the direction of the airport: "The devils hit themselves?" ”
"I heard that those are North Korean sappers!" Chen Guoliang replied: "It's the team that just entered!" ”
"Oh!" Wu Yan couldn't help but nod when he heard this: "That's the North Korean sappers and devils!" ”
"Probably!" Chen Guoliang replied: "The situation of the Korean sappers may be similar to ours, and there are also those who are oppressed by the devils and want to get rid of the oppression and rule of the devils. So, looking at this situation, it may be that the Korean sappers have revolted! ”
Wu Yan put a piece of grass in his mouth, and glanced at a few Japanese soldiers who were walking around with bayonets not far away, and a trace of murder flashed in his eyes: "Then we ...... it."
"Tuanza!" Chen Guoliang hurriedly stopped: "The situation is still unclear, and we don't understand the language with the North Korean engineers, not to mention, the devil reinforcements may arrive soon." I suggest taking a look before ......"
"Hmm!" Wu Yan nodded.
He had to be careful, because if he made a mistake, the thousands of brothers in the "Chinese Brotherhood" would be killed.
But he is unwilling to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, otherwise, it is very likely that there will be no such shop in this village.
Therefore, Wu Huo was entangled in his heart, but he finally listened to Chen Guoliang's words, and planned to wait and talk about it, this matter can't be rushed.
Chen Guoliang guessed correctly, and sure enough, a large number of Japanese reinforcements came up soon after, including more than 20 tanks.
Outside the airport, the Japanese squad of 200 men was basically exhausted after a few charges, and finally it was Eguchi Daisa who decided to personally lead his troops to launch a jade crushing attack......
A big Zuo led his subordinates to attack, and of course his move would be blocked by his subordinates.
"Your Excellency!" The staff officer said: "You must wait for the reinforcements alive, because the reinforcements do not understand the situation in the airport, and they need the cooperation of His Excellency Dazuo!" ”
"Asano-kun is right!" Without thinking about it, Eguchi Osa patted Asano's staff officer on the shoulder and said, "Then, Asano-kun will stay and tell the reinforcements about the situation!" ”
"Your Excellency!" Staff Officer Asano couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he wanted to say something, but was stopped by Eguchi Daisa.
"Please!" Eguchi Osa looked at Staff Officer Asano with a begging gaze: "Let me die honorably on the battlefield!" ”
So Asano understood why Eguchi Daisa did this...... He knew that with this point, he would not be able to take the airport at all, even if he launched a jade shatter attack.
The reason why Eguchi did this was because he knew that he would die.
Rather than being asked to apologize for his crimes after the war, it is better to die under the guns of the enemy, so that the Japanese military may cover up Eguchi's mistakes in order to boost morale, and even portray Eguchi as a hero...... This is something that the Japanese army often does, and a considerable number of Japanese officers know this.
Thinking of this, Asano couldn't help but nod slowly, and then watched Eguchi Daisa draw his command knife, and rushed towards the airport with a roar from the last two dozen subordinates.
Of course, the result is not surprising, more than 20 people are not enough for the enemy to fight, and at the same time, the bullet will not miss Eguchi because he is a famous Osa, in fact, Eguchi Daisa, who rushed to the front, was knocked to the ground by the enemy as soon as he appeared at the gate, but the enemy seemed to see Eguchi's military uniform, so he deliberately did not kill him...... The bullet was hit in Eguchi's thigh.
The rest of the soldiers were not so lucky, rows of bullets came up, and more than twenty Japanese soldiers quickly collapsed in pools of blood.
Eguchi Osa groaned and crawled on the ground a few times, the command knife that was originally in his hand no longer knew where it fell and was pressed by the corpse, and then Asano saw several enemies approaching Eguchi Daisa, obviously, they wanted to catch it alive.
Originally, Asano thought that Eguchi Daisa would choose to commit suicide, but this accident happened, Eguchi Daisa suddenly raised his hand and shouted: "Don't shoot, I surrender, I surrender......"
The change came so suddenly that Asano didn't get used to it. How could Osa Eguchi, who was still desperate just now, become like this in a blink of an eye?!
But in fact, it is not surprising at all, because it was a choice made without a choice, and it was a choice made with courage, but ...... When Eguchi was hit in the thigh by a bullet, the piercing pain and the imminent threat of death really scared Eguchi, and then he saw the enemy approaching him, and at this last moment he finally lowered his mask and made another choice.
Asano slowly raised his rifle and aimed the crosshair at Eguchi, and then with a "bang", he saw Eguchi Osa fall in the corpse and no longer made a sound.
A few minutes later, Japanese reinforcements arrived.
The first thing Kurokawa Nakasa, who led the reinforcements, said: "What about Your Excellency? ”
Asano turned his head and replied, "He led his subordinates to launch a jade crushing attack...... Loyal to the Emperor! ”
At this point, the fighting at the airport fell into a brief lull.
Zhang Chi knew that it was very likely that Japanese reinforcements had arrived, and he was discussing how to attack the airport at this time.
"How's it going?" Zhang Chi asked the correspondent: "When will the main force arrive?" ”
"Report to the group!" The correspondent replied: "It will take another two hours!" ”
"Two hours?!" Hearing this, Zhang Chi couldn't help frowning, this was more than an hour later than scheduled, and it was said that this was because the reinforcement fleet encountered a Japanese fleet on the way to Rabaul.
And this more than an hour, for Zhang Chi, may mean the annihilation of the whole army...... The reason is that the new regiment is disguised as a North Korean engineer to fight, that is to say, the equipment of the new regiment is in accordance with the configuration of the North Korean engineer unit, these equipment is very inadequate, not to mention, the firepower is not even comparable with the American equipment and even the Japanese troops, such as machine guns are pitifully few, mortars and throwing ammunition are basically absent.
Under such circumstances, will the new regiment be able to hold back the Japanese attack for two hours?!
And if it can't be stopped, it means that the chaos created by the new regiment in Rabaul will not be able to effectively affect the Japanese defenses...... The Japanese army could reorganize the defense after annihilating the new regiment, and then not only would the sacrifice of the new regiment be in vain, but the attack of the main force would be ruthlessly attacked.
