Chapter 43: The devil soldier who popped out of the fart
6.43 Devil Soldier Jumping Out
Matsushita's prediction was quickly confirmed, and the fog began to rise at more than four o'clock, and after dozens of minutes, the fog was so thick that it could not be dissolved, Jiangning has a large number of lakes and rivers, and Nanjing is backed by the Yangtze River, such weather has often occurred in previous years. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As the fog became heavier and heavier, the visibility dropped again and again, and the 56th Wing's trenches could not see the appearance of people clearly from a distance of three or four meters, and Matsushita Hiroshi felt that today's attack might be delayed, although such weather was very unfavorable to both sides, but the Japanese army was actually more affected by the foggy weather.
The first is that the Air Force will never let the pilots take off in such weather, and the second is that the heavy artillery units of the Japanese army will also become blind, and without aircraft and artillery, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army will be reduced by at least half.
Matsushita Hiroshi took out the cigarette in his pocket and lit it, with such visibility, he didn't have to worry that the fire would expose the target, so his action of striking the match was very chic.
The lit cigarette burns very fast, this kind of military cigarette produced in Northeast China tastes very bad, Matsushita Hiroshi's satchel also has two packs of Fuji cigarettes brought from Japan, which was sent to the dock by his sweetheart Yuriko when he was leaving, Matsushita Hiroshi has always been reluctant to smoke, only when he misses his hometown and Yuriko too much, he will take out the cigarette and come to his nose to ask, Matsushita Hiroshi can smell the smell that makes him obsessed even through the wrapping paper of the cigarette, I don't know why Hiroshi Matsushita wanted to open a pack and take a few puffs several times today, but he almost couldn't control himself.
In order to suppress his desire for cigarettes, Matsushita Hiroshi took out the toffee that was sent to him before landing and peeled one and stuffed it into his mouth, the sweetness quickly invaded his taste buds, Japanese soldiers are particularly fond of sweets, this hobby is inseparable from the poor logistics of the Japanese army.
Hiroshi Matsushita's toffee attracted a little guy. This private named Taro Koyama is the youngest recruit in Hiroshi Matsushita's team, Taro Koyama looked at the few toffees left in Hiroshi Matsushita's hand, and his saliva flowed out!
Poor recruits, all Japanese soldiers on the front line will be rationed twice a month with toffee, biscuits, jelly beans, bean buns, yokan and other sweets, but recruits like Koyamataro can't get them every time, and there will always be "enthusiastic" veterans or military officers to help him collect these good things, which is also an unwritten bad habit in the Japanese army.
Only when the other recruits come to the squad can Koyamataro escape the fate of being substituted, or he can be promoted.
It's a pity that these two methods of changing fate have nothing to do with Taro Koyama, who was a worker at the Yokohama shipyard before he became a soldier, and his poor background and cowardly nature doomed him to be at the bottom of Matsushita Hiroshi's team for a long time.
Matsushita Hiroshi has a feeling of sympathy every time he sees Koyama Taro, this little guy will not have any future in the army like him, Matsushita Hiroshi and Koyamataro are only different reasons why they were abandoned by the army.
Matsushita Hiroshi smiled at Koyama Taro, and then beckoned Koyama Taro to approach, Matsushita Hiroshi gave Koyama Taro all the rest of his toffee, Matsushita Hiroshi was an army second lieutenant after all, and he naturally received much more rations than ordinary soldiers.
Koyamataro looked at his squad leader gratefully, since he joined the 56th Wing, no one looked down on him, only Captain Matsushita Hiroshi did not bully him, sometimes Koyamataro felt that Matsushita Hiroshi was like his brother.
"Xiaoshan-kun, have you eaten enough food for the army? It's still to taste, right? ”
As soon as Matsushita Hiroshi finished saying his question, the veterans laughed, they knew that Matsushita Hiroshi was teasing the new recruit, Xiaoshan, the Japanese Army's food can be said to be extremely rotten, because the Japanese army has always paid little attention to logistics support and emphasized that Japanese soldiers should have the spirit of hardship and hard work, so the front-line Japanese combat troops often can live on the dry food carried by the soldiers a few days before departure, and then begin to "diet and lose weight", The Japanese officers and soldiers could not eat a heel of rice (a hehe is about 0.18 liters) a day, the vegetables were pickles, and there were basically no animal products.
If Koyama was a veteran, then he would definitely spit on the ground and scold the logistics officer, but Koyama was just a recruit, he didn't dare to say bad things about anyone behind his back, Matsushita Hiroshi's question made Koyama Taro blush, fortunately it was a foggy day, and only the squad leader who was face to face with Koyama Taro saw his embarrassment.
"Hmm.... Well... No... Not bad! ”
Koyama Taro's hesitant answer made the Japanese veterans in the fog happy, and they laughed hysterically, which made Koyamataro a little overwhelmed.
Some veterans couldn't help but open their mouths in the fog: "Xiaoshan must have been boiled with red beans and eaten with rice!" He thought he was still on his first day in the combat unit! Hahaha......"
Hiroshi Matsushita finally couldn't help laughing, "Red beans boiled and dipped in rice"? What a nostalgic story!
According to the custom of the Japanese army, on the first day of enlistment, the recruits were given a "red bean boiled rice", and when they ate, their commander would tell them: "This is the last good rice you will ever eat, and from tomorrow onwards, everything will be cruel!" ”
After this meal of "boiled red beans and dipped rice", the recruits will immediately enjoy the same treatment as veterans, and their three meals a day will also become the standard meal of the combat troops.
Breakfast is cold rice with pickles and a cup of ice-cold tea, lunch is a little rice with fish and meat that "may appear", and dinner is a bowl of soup with a little rice and vegetables.
In wartime, it is possible that you may not even be able to eat these, such as this morning's rice balls and canned beef, which are already exceptions, who made the 56th Wing the vanguard of the 18th Division again, these "delicacies" are a reward for them!
Accustomed to being ridiculed, Koyamataro blocked his ears and didn't want to hear the laughter, he leaned comfortably on the edge of the ditch and enjoyed the delicious food he had received, and he almost forgot the last time he had a sweet tooth......
Koyamataro has a toffee given to him by the captain of Matsushita Hiroshi in his mouth at the moment, because he knows that it is hard-won, Koyamataro is only willing to peel one, and the rest is stuffed into the bullet box, in addition to the 38 big lid in his hand and the 100 bullets in the bullet box, these few toffees are his only wealth......
"Second Lieutenant Matsushita! Second Lieutenant Matsushita! ......”
In the fog, there was a sudden voice calling for Matsushita Hiroshi, Matsushita Hiroshi heard that the person who shouted was his squadron leader Captain Hirano, Matsushita Hiroshi quickly stood up and shouted a few times in the direction where the voice of the Captain Hirano squadron came from, and after a while, Captain Hirano plunged into the trench where Matsushita Hiroshi stayed.
There was no way, the fog was so thick that it was not clear to see the other party's facial features face to face, and Captain Hirano touched the trench in the general direction, but fell in the air with one foot.
Fortunately, Captain Hirano fell on Koyamataro's body and was not injured, so he had a false alarm......
There is only one thing that can make Captain Hirano come to Matsushita Hiroshi's squad at the risk of a handsome nose and swollen face, and that is that the order to attack has come down!
Do you still have to fight in such weather? Fighting in such a fog is worse than a night battle, and the commander of the Ono Kamefu Brigade must be crazy! Did Wing Captain Saburo Fujiyama actually accept such a ridiculous order!?
Captain Hirano quickly gave Second Lieutenant Matsushita the answer!
Matsushita's squad will be ordered to reconnoiter the firepower of the Chinese defenders! Thinking with his toes, Hiroshi Matsushita can also guess that this is another "beauty difference" tailored to him by the commander of the Ono Kamefu Brigade! The commander of the Ono Kamefu Brigade really hasn't forgotten his rival at all times!
Matsushita Hiroshi's boss, Captain Hirano, obviously knew that the drunkard of the commander of the Ono Kamefu Brigade did not mean to drink, he glanced at Matsushita Hiroshi sympathetically, and then asked Matsushita Hiroshi to be careful, and Captain Hirano didn't even say anything about asking Matsushita's team to reconnoiter and turned away.
To reconnoiter in such weather, the commander of the Ono Kamefu Brigade is inevitably too low-level to play this trick of killing people with a knife!
For the embarrassment of the commander of the Ono Kamefu Brigade Matsushita Hiroshi has long been used to it, he just feels a little sorry for her subordinates, from the landing to the present his squad has participated in almost all the operations of the 18th Division, fortunately the Chinese troops they encountered are all about to collapse at the touch of a button, and rarely encounter strong resistance, Matsushita Hiroshi hopes that his good luck can continue!
Matsushita Hiroshi gave his team five minutes to check the equipment, and then he was the first to walk out of the trench, and the devils of Matsushita Hiroshita's team followed behind Matsushita Hiroshi one after another, the distance between them was almost negligible, in such a fog, not to get separated from the team was the first point!
Since the trench where Matsushita's squad was located was directly opposite the position of the Nanjing garrison, Matsushita Hiroshi and his subordinates did not have to worry about getting lost, they moved their steps carefully, if the front of the Chinese army's position was planted with mines, then they could only go to see Amaterasu!
"Ono Kamefu, I curse your daughter to be taken by the division commander, Lieutenant General Sadao Ushijima!"
Matsushita Hiroshi cursed the brigade commander, Major General Ono Kamefu, with the most vicious words in his heart, but he didn't expect him to inadvertently tell a secret of the 18th Division!
The division commander, Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao, has long been involved with the daughter of the commander of the Ono Kameifu Brigade, and the sister of the commander of the Ushijima Sadao Division is precisely the commander of the Ono Kameifu Brigade!
What a complicated relationship between colleagues and colleagues!
The Nanjing garrison opposite the 18th Division is Wang Shankui's 139th Division, due to the rush of time, the 139th Division failed to eat the 102nd Wing in Lishui County, Wang Shankui has always felt angry, in order to get the first-hand situation of the Japanese army, Wang Shankui put Zhang Guangfu's 538th Regiment in Nanshan, located in Zhaotang, Qiaoxi and Li Yuan by the Hengxi River are the outposts of the 139th Division and the Second Brigade and the Third Brigade of the Teaching Corps. Qiaoxi and Li Yuan made a move, which means that the commander of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army, Lieutenant General Sadao Ushijima, chose to capture Putang, and then attack Nanjing City along the bank of the Yangtze River, the 18th Division also has a layer of intention, that is, they want to wedge a nail between Nanjing and Ma'anshan, forming an impermeable pocket on the periphery of Nanjing, if the wishful thinking of the commander of the Ushijima Sadao Division is completed, then the troops in Nanjing City will only have one way to escape, that is, to cross the Yangtze River, which is now tightly sealed by the Central China Army. Enter the boundary of Anhui and county.
If such a tragic scene really occurs, I don't know how much blood will flow on the river from Xiaguan to Pukou!
Therefore, Wang Shankui hoped in his heart that the 18th Division would follow behind the 6th Division to attack the front line of Fangshan, so that the life passage of the Nanjing garrison would always remain unblocked!
However, Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao, commander of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army, did not fulfill Wang Shankui's wish, and his 18th Division and 23rd Brigade came to the defense area of Zhang Guangfu's 538th Regiment!
Based on the seriousness of the hostile situation, Wang Shankui sent a telegram to Huang Haoran in Nanjing requesting instructions......
**************************************************
The headquarters of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army......
The perfect plan arranged by the commander of the Ushijima Sadao Division and his chief of staff, Megumi Oto, finally began to be launched, and the only thing that made the commander of the Ushijima Sadao Division not very satisfied was today's weather, according to the forecast of the Japanese Meteorological Department, the fog would continue until noon, and the commander of the Ushijima Sadao Division was unwilling to waste his precious time here in Hengxi.
Gu Shoufu's 6th Division will continue to advance today, and Yoshika Ryosuke and Fujita Shin in the north will not slow down their pace, whether it is the 6th Division or the 3rd and 9th Divisions from Nanjing, the distance from Nanjing is much shorter than Ushijima Sadao's 18th Division, damn Gu Shoufu also let his troops deliberately block the path of the 18th Division in order to rush to attack, all of which made the commander of Ushijima Sadao's division burn!
The commander of Ushijima Sadao's division hoped that the first imperial division to enter Nanjing was his 18th division! If you want to get ahead of the 6th, 3rd, and 9th divisions, you have to use some small tricks!
The Nanjing garrison attacking Hengxi was a clever plan that the head of Ushijima Sadao's division and the chief of staff, Megumi Koto, came up with!
The road along the river from Nanjing City to Ma'anshan means nothing more than clear to the Nanjing garrison, and Ushijima Sadao knows it all too well! According to Chief of Staff Koto Megudasa, the newspapers of the people of China mentioned that Huang Haoran had been surrounded by the Central China Dispatch Army on the Songhu battlefield and finally escaped by luck, and there is a saying in China that "once you are bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the well rope for ten years", and Huang Haoran, who escaped from death, will definitely maintain a high degree of sensitivity to his retreat. This can be seen from the fact that the Nanjing garrison hoarded a considerable part of the army near the riverside passage.
As long as the Nanjing garrison can mobilize heavy troops to the Guli, Taowu, and Putang lines, then Gu Shoufu's 6th Division will be flanked by the Chinese army and will be dragged down, and the 18th Division can take the opportunity to cross the dry river, along the Zhougang and Hushu lines, and go straight to Nanjing, surpassing Gu Shoufu's 6th Division in one fell swoop, and how could the Chinese right wing, which had been exhausted, be the opponent of the 18th Division? The first army division of the 10th Army to enter Nanjing will definitely be his unit of Sadao Ushijima!
The 35th Infantry Brigade of the Third Major General of Hiratsuka Province has already erected a pontoon bridge on the banks of the Wadi River, and now what the 18th Division has to do is to beat Huang Haoran's troops on the riverside, and then let Gu Shoufu's 6th Division carry the bags for them!
What a great strategy to kill two birds with one stone!
That is, he kicked away the obstacle of Gu Shoufu and weakened the strength of the Nanjing garrison that was going to fight next! And then use the Chinese to stumble the footsteps of the 6th Division, all this is really seamless and wonderful!
The commander of Ushijima's Sadao Division and his chief of staff, Megumi Koto, glanced at each other and let out a knowing laugh!
Let Gu Shoufu's 6th Division become a stepping stone for the 18th Division to glory!
*************************************************
The 139th Division's 538th Regiment Bridge West Position in front of the Matsushita Hiroshi squad walked very slowly in the fog, after they changed directions several times and advanced a few hundred meters, they finally touched the front of a trench defended by the 3rd Company of the 1st Battalion of the 538th Regiment, the actions of the Panasonic Hiroshi squad had already been discovered by the 3rd company commander Li Tiezhu, who was very vigilant, and Li Company Commander ordered his subordinates to load the bayonets, and then slowly loaded the bullets with their hands holding the bolt, and the officers and soldiers of the 3rd training were ready for battle according to the instructions of the company commander Li, But when they lay in the trench and looked outside, where could they see the figure of the devil, this white world that could not see the five fingers made the officers and men of the 3rd Company not depressed, they could only prick up their ears, trying to find something strange.
Li Youhong, a soldier in the 1st platoon, didn't pay attention to keeping warm when he slept, and was blown cold by the night wind, and now he was lying on the trench and his belly was directly attached to the cold hard soil, Li Youhong suddenly felt that his stomach was turning over the river and the sea, and he was scurrying up and down in anger, Li Youhong knew that he was going to fart, but the company commander had already passed down the word just now, saying that no one was allowed to make a sound, even if he shit, he had to pull it in the crotch, Li Youhong really didn't know if his fart could be put in the crotch!
If the company commander was disciplined on the battlefield because of fart, it would be too unjust!
Li Youhong was suffocated and suffocated, he couldn't help but scold the little devil in his heart, why didn't he come up, if he crackled and fought now, he could take advantage of the chaos to let go of his fart!
The more I think about it, the more unbearable it becomes, Li Youhong finally can't hold it back after persisting for as long as half a century!
He felt a puff of gas rush towards his back door, and soon, his back was broken......
Don't be a loud fart!!
This was all the thoughts in Li Youhong's mind at that time......
It's a pity that this fart is not only a loud fart, but also a sky-shaking one!
Li Youhong can't wait to bury his head in the ground! He jumped up and shouted:
"I'm suffocating! There's really no way! You guys hold one and try it! ”
Li Tiezhu, the commander of the 3rd company, was angry, and he shouted at Li Youhong:
"Shut up! Watch out for devils! ”
Seeing that the company commander was angry, Li Youhong stood beside the trench and raised his Mauser rifle depressedly and stabbed a few times into the fog in front of him.
Just as Li Youhong turned around and was about to jump back into the trench, two bayonets stabbed him one on the left and one on the right!
Devil! The hideous-looking devil soldiers jumped out of the fog one after another......
