Rise from eight hundred

Chapter 51 The Japanese army is also crazy
"Toyoda-kun, since my 9th Wing landed in September, your troops have been fully staffed with 36 people, and have been fighting with the Chinese for nearly two months. How many casualties? How many are the victories?"

Waki Itashiro's face was frosty.

"Reporting, Your Excellency, the commander of the regiment, 210 people were killed in the battle, 242 people were seriously injured, and a total of 452 people were casualties. We conquered [-] positions, and killed the enemy. It doesn't count!" The Japanese army major trembled slightly, his face was red and swollen and his nose was bleeding. Answer righteously.

"Very good, all the more than 36 imperial officers and soldiers of my 3000th Infantry Regiment and nearly 1 Chinese elites have fought bloody battles for nearly two months. You, Major General Toyoda Hide's [-]st Infantry Brigade, lost nearly half of their casualties and did not retreat. There are more than a thousand to say the least, and he is indeed a role model for my Imperial Japanese Army."

Although the Japanese Colonel was complimenting him, the fierce light in his eyes could almost melt the Japanese Colonel.

"Then let me ask you again, how many battles have your 1st Infantry Brigade fought since yesterday evening? How many casualties and how many are the victories?"

"Report, Your Excellency, the commander of the regiment, our department is from Zhabei, including a dozen sporadic battles with the Chinese, with 197 casualties, and the results of the battle." .

He wanted to compile a series of data like the previous one, but the result was really no.

The Chinese stayed in that building all the time, even if they were dead or injured, they couldn't see it.

"Crack!" Another big mouth slammed into Toyoda Hideo's face.

The head swung violently, the nosebleed was flying, and the nose hair almost came out.

Blood splattered on the faces and bodies of the surrounding Japanese officers with their heads bowed and their crotch tightly tucked, but no one dared to move.

The attitude of His Excellency the Co-Captain is very obvious at this moment. He needs someone to vent his anger. The Major Commander may only need to leave a nosebleed, but if it is replaced by someone else, it may have to be full of blood.

Not stupid!Never go out to be sacrificed to the flag.

"It's been a dozen battles. You, Toyoda Hidey, have counted all the fallen soldiers in the ruins of the search battlefield!"

Wakibanjiro gritted his teeth and spit out a voice that was colder than the wind blowing in the early morning in northern China in the winter.

If possible, the Japanese Colonel, who has carefully read all the battle reports, really wants to slash the blind-eyed nonsense in front of him.

战损197人？那奉他所令前来助阵的第3步兵大队第1步兵中队100多号战损算什么？100多头死猪？

"Please, Your Excellency, Captain, give me another chance, and I will lead the entire 1st Infantry Brigade to wash away the shame." Hide Toyoda lowered his head heavily.

It must be said that Hideyoshi Toyoda is a smart person. If he doesn't express his opinion, it is very likely that he will not have a chance to express his opinion after today.

The Japanese major naturally understood that his famously ruthless boss might not really chop off his dog's head with one knife, but he threw his command knife and ordered him to open his abdomen or take off his military uniform and lead a team to charge in return. It is absolutely possible for His Majesty the Emperor to do such a thing.

However, the Japanese Colonel ignored his subordinate's statement, stretched out his hand, and took the telescope handed over by his subordinate to look at the opposite side. It took five or six minutes from the Sixing Warehouse to the concession on the other side of the river.

Without looking back, his voice was still cold: "Toyota-kun, you say, can I still trust you?"

"Your Excellency Captain, Toyoda Hideo is willing to shed the last drop of blood for the empire!" Toyoda Hideo almost said that he could charge shirtless.

It's just that it's not so irrational after all, he can't give people a chance to climb down the pole, and neither can Your Excellency the Great Colonel.

The Japanese Colonel put down his binoculars and looked back at his subordinate whose nose was still bleeding. His eyes were gloomy, and his expression softened slightly. He reached out and took a towel and handed it to Toyota Hidey:

"Okay, Toyota-kun, I will trust you again."

"This time, I brought all the rest of the 1rd Infantry Brigade, and the left and right flanks of the enemy's location are still handed over to them. Your [-]st Infantry Brigade will mainly attack the frontal positions.

At the same time, I have requested the support of the chariot brigade from the division headquarters, and the 1st Squadron of its chariots is rushing here.

At that time, a total of ten chariots will cooperate with you to fight. "

Although his face softened, the cold Japanese Colonel reached out and took out a gold watch from his arms: "You still have about an hour to prepare for the battle."

"Also, let me remind you, Toyoda-kun, this time, the 1st Infantry Brigade and the 3rd Infantry Brigade will be the main attack regardless of the main attack and the second attack. If the sun goes down today, I haven't seen the flag of my unit flying there. On the top of the building, Toyota-kun, you better not appear in front of me."

"Hey!" Toyoda Xiu trembled fiercely, but he bowed his head heavily and led the military order.

This is a death sentence, not the Chinese defender in the building, or his infantry brigade leader.

However, in a day's time, can he really take down the opposite fortress with decent firepower and tenacity?

If it was said that he still had sufficient confidence before this morning, but after the battle just now, that indestructible confidence had long since been shaken.

He even had an illusion, not to mention that he was an infantry brigade, and even if the three infantry brigade of the entire wing gathered together, he would not even think about easily attacking the fortress that had fallen into silence.

In fact, that is not an illusion, but the intuition of a veteran who has served in the army for more than 15 years.

In the past time and space, the 36th Infantry Regiment gathered in the Sixing Warehouse Building and attacked violently from three sides.

The 3rd Division lost all face, but the Four Lines and Eight Hundreds were shocked at home and abroad.

The Japanese army's gongs and drums are closely dispatching troops to prepare for the next round of decisive battle, and the lieutenant colonel in the warehouse is also issuing military orders:

"Order, all officers and soldiers must not go to battle until they receive the order!"

"Order, all firepower points on the roof are withdrawn into the building!"

"Order, the Signal Corps informs all the people on the other side to evacuate!"

. . . . . .

"Lieutenant Commander, without the cannons and mortars to frighten us, the Japanese infantry would have surrounded us from three sides with impunity." Lei Xiong, the company commander of the cannon company, jumped out to object with excitement.

Naturally, Lei Xiong was not blind, because he lost the artillery fire, and the Japanese infantry could approach the warehouse building more calmly under the cover of his machine guns.

The fort is actually a bit like a tank. The medium and long distances are very good, but once it is approached, the shooting range of the machine gun and rifle is limited, and it can only be slaughtered by others.

Keeping enough distance to prevent the enemy from entering the shooting dead corner is the key point of fortress defense.

"Stupid! What kind of urine do you know about the Japanese?" Lieutenant Colonel of the Army scolded lightly.

A stern look flashed in his eyes: "The pure infantry tactics of bombarding with cannons have been proven to be ineffective, and the next round of battle will inevitably return to their old tactics, with artillery clearing the heavy fire points on the top of my building as the main target.

No matter how bad it is, as you said, suppress our heavy firepower to cover its infantry approaching.

If that's the case, why not let us do what they want first? "

Sure enough, when the heavy firepower such as machine guns and mortars on the roof was withdrawn into the building, it took 10 minutes.

The four mountain artillery of the Japanese army spoke, from east to west.

The Japanese army selected the shooting angle for nearly an hour to be very precise, and almost perfectly avoided the concession site with a distance of less than 40 meters. Even if there was a slight deviation, it still landed on the ground on the front and flanks of the warehouse.

After seven or eight rounds of continuous test firing, at least half of the cannonballs either landed on the thick walls or on the roof, exploding bright fireworks.

From the perspective of the Chinese people who have retreated more than 100 meters from the shore, the huge Four-row warehouse building is completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke, and the flames that burst out from time to time make people feel palpitating.

The Suzhou River near the warehouse building seems to be trembling. The water waves on the river more than 40 meters wide and the thousands of ripples that are constantly being stirred form a strange picture.

The Western soldiers on the shore had already left the fortifications and ran away.

The Chinese are crazy, and the Japanese are not good birds.

Even if no cannonballs fall here, but if they are hit by shrapnel and flying stones, they will go to see God!
