The Milky Way is Also a Grain of Sand
Chapter 243 Battle at Guangde Airport
December 22nd, 1937, 6:57 AM.
The piercing sound of an air raid siren echoed over Guangde Airport.
This was the first air raid siren to sound since the Japanese devils had occupied Guangde Airport twenty-one days prior.
There were nearly four hundred Japanese devils stationed at Guangde Airport.
Although they only had one flight squadron, consisting of only eighteen aircraft,
they also had a separate infantry company guarding them.
Adding their logistics and aircraft maintenance personnel, the number increased.
All of these Japanese devils, on this clear morning,
were awakened by the deafening air raid siren.
Si Zhi Gong Lian was still running, the occasional splashes of mud and sand around his feet kicked up by heavy machine gun bullets.
His steps seemed like a dance as he constantly bounced on the ground.
Guangde Airport was once a military airport meticulously managed by the National Revolutionary Army.
The runway was wide enough for several aircraft to take off or land simultaneously.
It was also wide enough for a row of vehicles to avoid forming a single file.
Now, they were moving in what resembled the legendary wild goose formation.
Like wild geese migrating south, a single vehicle led the way in the center.
Several vehicles followed on either side.
As these vehicles spread out, the seven ground crew who had been watching Ōnishi Kōsuke take off were
no longer able to dance in the rain of bullets.
They were almost simultaneously struck by bullets; heavy machine gun bullets that caused injury upon contact and death upon grazing.
These devils were nothing special.
The bullets did not show them any leniency just because they were made by the Japanese.
At the same time, Kosuina Ayumu, the infantry company commander guarding the airport, was issuing orders:
"Squad Leader Katana Shota, you will immediately lead your men to the tower and seize the high ground.
Squad Leader Toka Kanade, immediately lead your squad onto the runway to protect the Empire's aircraft.
Squad Leader Chozakura Ryu, immediately lead your squad to guard the oil depot, and do not let the National Revolutionary Army bomb the oil depot."
After the orders were issued, Company Commander Kosuina Ayumu ordered his signalman:
"Call Captain Ando immediately and request reinforcements!"
After issuing the orders, he rushed towards the tower.
The telephone in his command post could only connect with the tower and the Japanese devils in Guangde City.
Now, Infantry Company Commander Kosuina Ayumu wanted to report the information about the attack to a higher level.
Before Infantry Company Commander Kosuina Ayumu could reach the tower,
Yusuke Arashiro, in command on the tower, had already instructed signalman Keisuke Kota to communicate with Ōnishi Kōsuke, who was in the air:
"Ōnishi-kun! Guangde Airport is under attack; please do not return to the airport.
Please do not return to the airport."
Only now did Ōnishi Kōsuke, who was still in the air, vaguely understand:
The convoy he saw during takeoff was probably the National Revolutionary Army.
However, he did not care about such a small matter; although the tower ordered him not to return to the airport,
that only meant that he could not land, but it did not prevent him from returning to take a look.
In the command center of the tower, there was a radio that could contact the Tenth Army Headquarters.
Infantry Company Commander Kosuina Ayumu wanted to report what happened today to the Tenth Army Headquarters.
As Chen Sichuan's first platoon approached the tower, Liu Laopao's second platoon had already stormed onto the runway.
Squad Leader Katana Shota had already led his squad of fifty-four Japanese devils to occupy a favorable position.
Machine guns were in place!
Sergeant Major Osuka Haruki took up a machine gun and opened fire on the approaching first squad.
On the ten vehicles of the first platoon, there were a full ten heavy machine guns firing back.
The powerful firepower of the heavy machine guns immediately suppressed all the firepower of Squad Leader Katana Shota.
Originally, the three grenade launcher operators of Squad Leader Katana Shota, Ōya Uki, Oiso Haruki, and Mochida Kazuya, had already occupied favorable positions.
Just as they were preparing to launch, Ōya Uki was struck by a heavy machine gun bullet.
Just one look was enough to tell that he could not survive.
A large hole that could be seen through from the front chest to the back had been torn through him, and fresh blood was gurgling onto the floor.
Oiso Haruki and Mochida Kazuya were slightly luckier; they were not hit, but they dared not show their faces again.
At the same time, more than just Ōya Uki was struck among the soldiers of Squad Leader Katana Shota.
Several other Japanese devils were also hit.
Some lay motionless on the ground, while others were rolling back and forth on the ground, groaning and screaming.
Airport medics had already rushed up and began to treat the wounded.
Squad Leader Katana Shota also lowered his head and ordered his soldiers: "Return fire! Return fire!"
It was just that the firepower of this attacking team was too powerful.
As long as they showed their faces, they were at risk of being hit, even like this.
Even if they kept their heads down and stayed here, they could still hear the whistling sound of bullets flying overhead.
This sound was soul-stirring, scaring all the soldiers of Squad Leader Katana Shota's squad so much that they did not dare to move.
Chen Sichuan and his team had already rushed under the tower, and soldiers began to rush into the tower.
Captain Ando Daisuke, who was rushing towards the tower from a distance, wanting to call for help on the radio, watched the National Revolutionary Army soldiers rush in.
The soldiers of Squad Leader Katana Shota remained indifferent!
The lack of gunfire in response angered Captain Ando Daisuke.
When he rushed up a few floors and saw that all the Japanese devils in the squad were hiding in the corner,
without even a sentry looking out to see what was happening,
Captain Ando Daisuke was furious: "Squad Leader Katana Shota! Return fire immediately!"
Squad Leader Katana Shota awkwardly wanted to explain that it was not that his squad was not returning fire, but that the fire from the attacking National Revolutionary Army was too fierce.
Captain Ando Daisuke clearly did not want to listen to his explanation, and only ordered: "Return fire! Return fire immediately!"
With the captain's order, Squad Leader Katana Shota could only obey, and he loudly ordered: "Return fire! Return fire!"
Mochida Kazuya and Oiso Haruki, the two grenade launcher operators, immediately began to take action.
They hid and, based on the source of the gunfire they heard, launched Squad Leader Katana Shota's counterattack to the outside.
The rest of the Japanese devils also unscrewed the caps of their grenades and threw them directly outside.
They had seen the National Revolutionary Army's attack route just now.
At this time, they should, possibly, be in the place where their grenades would fall.
Captain Ando Daisuke's purpose in rushing over was not to supervise the battle.
At this time, he had already rushed into the tower command room and shouted to the tower commander:
"Immediately send a telegram to the Tenth Army Headquarters: Guangde Airport is under sudden attack by the National Revolutionary Army.
Please support us immediately!"
At the Tenth Army Headquarters, Commander Yanakawa Heisuke was in a good mood, listening to the news that the 18th Division and the 114th Division's attack on Hangzhou was progressing very smoothly!
All things in the world are not afraid of not knowing the goods,
but are afraid of comparing goods!
Without comparison, there is no harm!
The Tenth Army and the Shanghai Expeditionary Army were both part of the same army; he led the Tenth Army all the way from Hangzhou Bay to Nanjing.
In less than a month, they traveled nearly a thousand miles and defeated 700,000 National Revolutionary Army soldiers.
In contrast, Commander Asaka no Miya Yasuhiko's self-willedness at the Shanghai Expeditionary Army Headquarters
led to the destruction of the entire headquarters.
At the same time, all the wounded of the Shanghai Expeditionary Army and the Tenth Army were sent to their deaths.
In addition, in order to rescue Commander Asaka no Miya Yasuhiko, several cavalry regiments and two infantry regiments were sent out from Nanjing City,
causing 20,000 casualties to the Imperial soldiers.
Compared to that, Yanakawa Heisuke himself felt embarrassed.
Now, the two divisions under his command were successfully attacking Hangzhou! All of this gave him a feeling of unreality.
Listening to the news of the two divisions' smooth advance, Commander Yanakawa Heisuke took a sip of tea and sighed softly:
"Truly good tea! Such good tea is produced in such a good place.
If the Empire cannot manage it, what a regrettable thing it would be."
At this moment, a staff officer came to report: "A urgent telegram from Guangde Airport!" Da Feng Novel Network
"Read it!"
"Guangde Airport is under siege by the National Revolutionary Army! The situation is extremely critical!" There were not many words, but there was a lot of information.
Which unit of the National Revolutionary Army was it, and how many soldiers were there?
None of this information was available, just this simple little paragraph.
Commander Yanakawa Heisuke's good mood instantly disappeared.
Now, his main focus was on Hangzhou, and in his eyes, the National Revolutionary Army should also be focusing its main efforts there.
He did not expect that some of the National Revolutionary Army would run to attack his airport.
Now that Guangde Airport was sounding the alarm, he could not ignore it.
In fact, the lost remote small towns around Nanjing were all places that the Tenth Army had previously occupied.
These days, he had been attacking Hangzhou and Chuzhou, so he had not paid attention to them.
After listening to the report, Commander Yanakawa Heisuke ordered: "Ask if the aircraft have taken off, and how many National Revolutionary Army soldiers are attacking?"
"Hai!"
Soon, a reply came: "Only one reconnaissance aircraft has taken off.
The rest of the aircraft are surrounded by the National Revolutionary Army inside the airport.
There are at least a thousand National Revolutionary Army soldiers inside the airport."
Hearing this news, Yanakawa Heisuke ordered: "Send a squadron from Shanghai Airport to support Guangde Airport."
The air distance from Shanghai to Guangde was 170 kilometers.
The latest fighter aircraft could arrive in twenty-five minutes, and even clumsy bombers could arrive in half an hour.
During the Tangshan battle, the Shanghai Expeditionary Army had sent a transport aircraft squadron to urgently deliver 1,500 soldiers to Tangshan.
The result was a complete annihilation, and Yanakawa Heisuke would certainly not make the same mistake.
Now, he would just send a flight squadron of nine aircraft to Guangde Airport.
After receiving the distress call from Infantry Company Commander Kosuina Ayumu,
Captain Ando Daisuke immediately dispatched the infantry from Nakawamei Masaya's squadron to reinforce them.
Distant water cannot quench immediate thirst, and the entire Guangde Airport was already full of vehicles.
The entire convoy of the Special Operations Company had flooded onto the runway.
Even the ten heavy artillery pieces led by Feng Junya's eighth platoon had entered the airport.
And four 88mm anti-aircraft guns had already been set up.
The initial purpose of deploying these anti-aircraft guns was, of course, because everyone had seen an aircraft take off from here.
For such an important place as the airport, the Japanese devils would definitely not let it go easily.
It was possible that the Japanese devils would send aircraft to bomb it.
Although the airport was still being contested, none of the Special Operations Company soldiers believed that this airport was still in the hands of the Japanese devils.
They had already regarded this airport as their own.
And these aircraft on the airport had made these veterans of the Special Operations Company very happy:
Their team could finally have aircraft.
In any case, the airport needed to be protected.
Lin Fan ordered: the third platoon would protect the oil depot, and the first and second platoons would quickly drive away the Japanese devils.
In order to protect the safety of these aircraft, Lin Fan had already been very generous and was willing to let these Japanese devils live.
He opened the road to Guangde, allowing these Japanese devils to retreat along Guangde all the way towards Hangzhou.
However, the entire Kosuina Ayumu Infantry Company, even though Heaven had a road for them, they were unwilling to take it.
Hell had no doors, but these Japanese devils insisted on breaking in!
Infantry Company Commander Kosuina Ayumu ordered his soldiers to launch a counterattack against the National Revolutionary Army.
However, the Japanese devils in the tower were receiving very heavy fire suppression.
Squad Leader Toka Kanade led his squad of more than fifty Japanese devils
and had quickly rushed onto the runway.
As soon as they rushed onto the runway, they encountered the second platoon, which was rushing towards them.
When the vehicles of the second platoon were still speeding on the runway, the soldiers of Squad Leader Toka Kanade's squad had just shown their heads.
Immediately, a volley of heavy machine gun bullets rained down on the heads of these Japanese devils.
Scared, all the soldiers of Squad Leader Toka Kanade's squad lay down, and immediately organized a counterattack.
However, Platoon Leader Liu Laopao of the second platoon was never a fearful man.
His convoy did not stop just because Japanese devils were discovered in front of them.
Like general, like soldiers.
Not only did these soldiers not stop, they instead increased their throttle.
In just a few seconds over a distance of two hundred meters, a full ten heavy machine guns and dozens of light machine guns had rushed to within a hundred meters of Squad Leader Toka Kanade's squad.
And this firepower was also high and mighty.
The soldiers of Squad Leader Toka Kanade's squad, lying prone on the side of the runway, were not only suppressed and unable to fight back.
They were purely being targeted and killed by the firepower of the second platoon!
Hashimoto Yuto was the machine gunner of Squad Leader Toka Kanade's squad; the light machine gun in his hand had just been set up, and the first bullet had not yet been fired.
He immediately felt boundless killing intent enveloping him.
Hashimoto Yuto was an alert Japanese devil; he rolled away.
The machine gun remained in place, and he slipped away.
Even so, he still felt pain in his feet and body.
He turned his head to look at the position where he had just been lying; that spot on the ground was scattering many sparks.
These were sparks from bullets hitting the stones on the ground.
Just by seeing the density of those flying sparks, he could guess that:
If he had not rolled away in time, he would already be a corpse.
However, now his whole body was in pain; he had obviously been hit by many bullets all over his body.
Hashimoto Yuto could still freely look around; many of the Japanese devils beside him had already fallen flat.
No longer struggling!
At this time, someone in Squad Leader Toka Kanade's squad finally fired a shot.
This was the first shot fired by their entire squad, and Squad Leader Toka Kanade excitedly wanted to cheer.
Immediately afterwards, he also fired his first shot, and shouted: "Return fire! Return fire!"
Even with the guidance of the first shot, less than ten soldiers fired successively.
Hashimoto Yuto originally wanted to grab the rifle from the hands of a Japanese devil beside him whose body was already flowing out a large pool of blood and fire it.
However, just as his hand reached out, he encountered the awkward situation of "reaching out must be hit."
His hand was hit by a bullet.
Hashimoto Yuto looked at his right hand, which only had half a palm left.
He could no longer restrain his fear and screamed loudly.
Hashimoto Yuto, who had just lost half of his palm, temporarily forgot all the pain in his body.
He was frightened by his half a hand and screamed non-stop.
Squad Leader Toka Kanade shouted: "Sergeant Hashimoto! Shut up!"
Fear completely overwhelmed Squad Leader Toka Kanade's orders, and Hashimoto Yuto continued to scream.
Just as Squad Leader Toka Kanade was angrily about to shoot him to shut him up,
Hashimoto Yuto suddenly shut his mouth; it was not that he had discovered that Squad Leader Toka Kanade was about to enforce battlefield discipline.
He was only hit again by a heavy machine gun that had already rushed up close.
Now those vehicles had rushed to a place thirty meters in front of these Japanese devils and stopped.
Just now there were still six or seven Japanese devils firing back, now there was not even one Japanese devil fighting back.
The soldiers of the second platoon rushed up, and all fifty-odd Japanese devils fell to the ground.
Several Japanese devils were struggling and groaning.
After passing through the battlefield where fifty-odd Japanese devils had died, the three hundred soldiers of the second platoon had completely ensured that these Japanese devils were the best Japanese devils.
The company commander had said: Only dead Japanese devils are good Japanese devils!
The second platoon quickly rushed into the Japanese devils' command post, and there was not a single Japanese devil here anymore.
The Japanese devils of the entire Kosuina Ayumu Infantry Company headquarters, as well as the ground crew and maintenance personnel of the airport,
were now all concentrated in the tower.
The tower was the tallest building in the entire airport, and looking at the Japanese devils' tower, Lin Fan hesitated for the first time:
He was very clear about the role of the tower for the airport.
Operating the 88mm anti-aircraft guns and wanting to attack the tower within a few hundred meters was really too easy.
However, in this way, the entire tower and the equipment inside would be completely destroyed.
This equipment was something that Lin Fan could not buy even if he had money, for the time being.
Thinking of this, Lin Fan could only watch the Japanese devils' figures on the tower flickering intermittently.
He had already seen the first and second platoons rush into the tower from two directions respectively.
The next thing would depend on them.
The task of the Honjo Ryu squad was to protect the oil depot, and the task received by Platoon Leader Jia was also to protect the oil depot.
It was just that the Japanese devils were closer after all, and the Honjo Ryu squad arrived at the oil depot first.
In order to prevent the attacking National Revolutionary Army from directly blowing up the oil depot, Squad Leader Honjo Ryu led his team to establish a defense line on the left and right sides of the oil depot.
As for the front, they dared not go.
They were afraid that when the attacking National Revolutionary Army attacked them,
they would detonate the oil depot behind them.
Platoon Leader Jia commanded his two squads; squad leader Lai Liren of the first squad attacked the left side, and squad leader Mu Chengye of the second squad attacked the right side.
The two squads, upon receiving the order, immediately took action; the first squad pushed ten makeshift armored vehicles and launched a charge directly.
The second squad did not have such equipment for the time being, and they could only follow normal tactics.
The entire squad cautiously approached the Japanese devils' position.
Squad Leader Honjo Ryu watched the National Revolutionary Army on the opposite side push carts that were obviously modified towards the position they were defending.
Machine gun bullets hit these carts, only causing sparks to fly, and were unable to cause any harm to the attacking National Revolutionary Army.
On the contrary, the heavy machine guns on the opposite side, which could fire while pushing forward, completely suppressed their own fire points.
The soldiers of Squad Leader Honjo Ryu's squad could not even lift their heads because of such powerful firepower.
But the battle forced them to resist, and Squad Leader Honjo Ryu shouted: "Machine gunners! Fire!
Infantry! Fire!
Grenade launchers! Fire!"
In his order, every soldier had to fire.
However, the non-commissioned officer, Maruichi Yuto, who actually carried out the order, had just raised his head and looked at the National Revolutionary Army soldiers charging towards him.
Before his rifle could even begin to aim, he was hit by a bullet that was fired from somewhere.
Non-commissioned officer Maruichi Yuto fell into the trench without saying a word.
Kawahara Iori, who was beside him, kindly reached out his hand to help this poor, honest man.
The squad leader told you to fire, but he did not tell you to raise your head and risk your life!
Kawahara Iori only turned Maruichi Yuto's body over, and immediately saw that there was a wound in the center of his forehead, and blood was gurgling out.
With such an injury, no wonder he did not say a word!
Maruichi Yuto was already dead!
Kawahara Iori lowered his body even more in fear.
If it were possible, he would open a door here and directly enter the eighteenth level of hell.
Kawahara Iori would be willing to walk in without hesitation: anyway, any place was better than staying here!
Not only Kawahara Iori, but all the soldiers of Squad Leader Honjo Ryu's squad had this idea.
They were currently unable to fight back; being beaten on the battlefield without fighting back, was this not just waiting to die?
They could not continue like this, and Squad Leader Honjo Ryu ordered:
"Everyone prepare to throw grenades!"
He was preparing to first use grenades to create a batch of smoke.
To win even a second of opportunity for the entire squad, he would be able to deploy the machine guns in the team.
And fire the grenade launchers in the team.
Hearing Squad Leader Honjo Ryu's order, these Japanese devils immediately began to prepare.
Immediately, some Japanese devils began to throw grenades, but to Squad Leader Honjo Ryu's disappointment,
the throwing of grenades had only just begun, and on the left, where there were originally twenty-seven Japanese devils, there were now less than twenty Japanese devils.
When these Japanese devils threw their grenades, some of them successfully threw them out.
Kawahara Iori had made all the preparations, but when he threw the grenade, he was shot in the arm.
The grenade that was originally held in his hand could no longer be thrown out, nor could it be held, and it flew weakly less than a meter away.
This was suicide!
Although Kawahara Iori was shot in the arm, his face was still intact.
In extreme panic, he shouted loudly: "Lie down!"
Kawahara Iori was also the fastest to react to the grenade he threw himself.
He was the first to lie down on the ground.
In less than three seconds, an explosion sounded at close range.
Kawahara Iori dodged the explosion of the grenade he threw himself and was unharmed.
However, there were three Japanese devils around him who were a step slower in reacting.
And they were in the center of the grenade explosion, so these three Japanese devils became cannon fodder.
Kawahara Iori successfully killed three Japanese devils with a grenade.
Such a battle record made Squad Leader Honjo Ryu almost vomit blood and die.
However, this situation that appeared with Kawahara Iori was an uncontrollable risk.
Squad Leader Honjo Ryu could not scold him for anything.
This wave of operations had directly killed the machine gunner in the team.
The grenade launcher could not be fired either.
In the Japanese devils' team, firing a grenade launcher was a skill that required the most practical experience.
This was completely something that could only be developed through multiple shots and multiple practices.
These Japanese devils did not dare to carefully observe the positions of the National Revolutionary Army soldiers who were attacking.
The grenade launchers that were fired were also completely inaccurate.
What frustrated Squad Leader Honjo Ryu the most was that the National Revolutionary Army on the opposite side had already rushed up close.
With no choice, Squad Leader Honjo Ryu could only order: "Fix bayonets!"
Jia Shusheng was also ordering: "Fix bayonets!"
The courage of the Honjo Ryu squad was commendable; they now only had twelve Japanese devils, but they still dared to launch a bayonet charge against Jia Shusheng and his more than a hundred men.
Squad Leader Honjo Ryu personally supervised the battle from behind; he watched as eleven Japanese devils under his command jumped out of the trenches.
He also rushed out of the trenches and shouted loudly as he charged towards Jia Shusheng and his men.
Every soldier in the Special Operations Company liked bayonet charges.
They practiced every morning, and after so many battles,
the stabbing skills of these soldiers had reached perfection.
There were more than a hundred soldiers, but only twelve Japanese devils charged up.
In this way!
There were too few Japanese devils, and there were not enough to go around.
This kind of bayonet charge had ended as soon as it started.
The soldiers of the third platoon's first squad, in groups of three, simply moved their hands and easily stabbed the bayonets into the chests of the Japanese devils.
In fact, in this kind of suicidal charge, these Japanese devils no longer had the will to fight.
They also had no way to retreat: Squad Leader Honjo Ryu was supervising them from behind.
These Japanese devils were rushing to their deaths when they launched the charge.
The Japanese devils on the left were completely annihilated.
The soldiers of the third platoon's first squad did not rest; they immediately changed direction and charged towards the Japanese devils on the position on the right.
Sergeant Chief Nakasha Okawa was in charge of the direction on the right.
The situation on their side was clearly much better than on the left side.
The equipment, combat skills, and experience of the personnel in the second squad, which was responsible for the attack, were much worse.
Of course, Squad Leader Mu Chengye knew this; it was precisely because he knew this,
he did not allow the soldiers of the entire second squad to launch a fierce attack on the position where there were only twenty-odd Japanese devils.
Mu Chengye told the soldiers to hold these Japanese devils in place, so that these Japanese devils could not have an impact on the first squad.
Even so, the soldiers of the second squad were not really recruits after all.
On the contrary, they were all veterans who had been through many battles.
In the past, they were just unwilling to be injured in battle, or to lose their lives in battle.
Now, they were attacking the Japanese devils' position in the same way as the first squad.
People in the first squad had already occupied the position, and they were still fifty meters away from the Japanese devils' position.
The light machine guns of the second squad were suppressing the Japanese devils' machine gun fire.
So that these Japanese devils under the command of Nakasha Okawa could not pose a real threat to the attacking team.
Nakasha Okawa watched as the soldiers under his command were constantly reduced, and machine gunners were replaced one after another.
Often before a magazine could be emptied, the machine gunner was finished first.
This kind of battle made Nakasha Okawa very distressed and also very helpless.
On the opposite side were more than a hundred well-equipped, well-trained elite soldiers of the National Revolutionary Army.
He only had twenty-odd Japanese devils, and their weapons were similar to the opponent's.
In fact, the weapons of these Japanese devils were worse than those of the second squad.
At least the second squad had mortars and heavy machine guns.
It was just because this place was too close to the oil depot, and the second squad was not sure, so they did not use mortars.
The two heavy machine guns in the entire squad had been firing all the time.
Squad Leader Mu Chengye watched as the firepower of the Japanese devils became weaker and weaker, and finally issued the order: "Fix bayonets!"
"Charge!"
When he issued the order, he had already begun to charge.
Behind him, Huo Yeyi, Xiang Jiamo, Fu Weibo, Yu Yangyu, and Niu Binshi and other soldiers followed closely.
Except for the machine gunners and heavy machine gunners, all the soldiers of the entire second squad had begun to charge.
Having just finished the battle on the left side of the battlefield, Jia Shusheng and the soldiers of the first squad were coming to support on the right side.
Only halfway there, they had already seen that the soldiers of the second squad had launched a charge.
And charged onto the Japanese devils' position, bayonets crossed!
This was the style of the Special Operations Company.
Mu Chengye charged in the front, Nakasha Okawa saw that the National Revolutionary Army on the opposite side had launched a charge.
He looked at the seventeen Japanese devils under his command, and the more than a hundred National Revolutionary Army soldiers on the opposite side.
With such a disparate ratio, Nakasha Okawa had no chance of winning.
But he was forced by the situation and had to order: "Fix bayonets! Charge!"
The soldiers of the second squad had only just learned the preparatory stance yesterday, and they were not familiar with it.
They still used the stabbing techniques they had practiced in the old troops.
At this time, they suddenly realized that they did not seem to have practiced stabbing much before.
In the eyes of many commanders, it was already an era of hot weapons.
Infantrymen could be hit by all kinds of weapons a hundred meters away.
What was the need to practice bayonet fighting.
Therefore, in many teams, they had never paid attention to stabbing techniques.
Only those teams that lacked ammunition would pay attention to this kind of cold weapon combat.
Now the soldiers of the second squad realized on the battlefield that they did not know how to fight with bayonets at all.
The Japanese devils were not like this: they had truly practiced bayonet fighting as a military skill.
Facing such tenacious Japanese devils, the soldiers of the second squad were not to be trifled with.
They bravely stabbed the bayonets in their hands at the Japanese devils.
Although the bayonets were always blocked by the Japanese devils, one Japanese devil needed to parry the simultaneous attacks of at least five or six soldiers.
These Japanese devils were not gods after all, and they could not parry after all.
In bayonet fighting, as long as you cannot parry, what you pay is of course your life.
When Jia Shusheng arrived at the battlefield on the right, the entire battle was over.
Although all seventeen Japanese devils had died in battle, they did not give up when they were surrounded.
One soldier of the second squad died and three were injured.
