Chapter 413: The Destruction of the Yamazaki Battalion
Chapter 413: The Destruction of the Yamazaki Battalion
"Bakayaloo! Stop it right now."
Seeing what was happening before their eyes, Yamazaki and his trusted squadron leader cursed at the same time.
What kind of thing is this? Why are people fighting each other without any warning?
Although those crazy soldiers in front seemed aimless in the fight, the bayonets in their hands were really stabbing at people.
At first, the Japanese soldiers on the second line of defense had not yet thought of killing each other.
I kept thinking about how to control them first and then find out why they went crazy.
Until a convulsed Japanese soldier pounced on them with a smoking grenade.
So the Japanese soldiers on the second line of defense were blown into the sky by grenades.
The Japanese on the second line of defense finally turned against us.
Isn't it just a gunfight? Everyone can do it. Everyone is a Japanese with blood.
So, the Japanese from the second squadron and the Japanese from the third squadron started fighting.
The third squadron, as the reserve force, quickly ran to the front to mediate the fight.
As they were trying to persuade them, they started fighting with the Japanese soldiers from the first and second squadrons.
The remaining soldier from the artillery unit was forced by the officer to step forward and mediate.
Those who were fighting were holding bayonets, and they didn't want to go up and die.
He simply left the mortar next to him there and ignored it.
They didn't care and fought with the squad leader of their own artillery unit.
Only the soldiers of the machine gun squadron of the Yamazaki Battalion, who were in the rear, were able to maintain a bit of rationality.
Not only did they not join the riot in front, they also automatically formed a circle.
But they all had terrified looks on their faces and pointed their guns at their own people in the outer circle.
They saw with their own eyes that a soldier from their own battalion bit off the throat of the soldier next to him.
I wonder what this Japanese soldier, who bit his own man to death, thought of the dead man in his heart.
Maybe it was his enemy, maybe it was the squad leader who bullied him, or maybe it was his father who abused him when he was a child.
Now he raised his head, and his bloodshot eyes stared fiercely at their machine gun position again.
He had no time to spit out the piece of tubing in his mouth before he rushed towards the machine gun position howling.
One heavy machine gunner couldn't stand it anymore, so he fired at the soldier with his Type 92 heavy machine gun.
It was as if someone had given the order, and all the light and heavy machine guns opened fire at the crazy people around them.
At this moment, Ding Wei was leading the soldiers of the new regiment and had just passed through the fire.
They heard the heavy machine guns in the Japanese position firing "da da da".
Ding Wei immediately shouted for everyone to lie down, but unexpectedly Song Wenwan followed him.
Song Wenwan pulled Ding Wei up with force, shouting "Charge, charge!"
Commanding the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, they continued to charge towards the Yamazaki Battalion.
Song Wenwan's guard company lowered their heads and ran forward desperately.
Want to quickly approach the Yamazaki Battalion's defense line.
This is a large open area. If they don't rush over now, they will all be dead by the time the Japanese react.
Ding Wei thought, the Japanese machine guns are still firing, what are they attacking?
Are you trying to drag me, Ding Wei, up there to die together?
But when he looked up, he realized something was wrong. Why were the Japs fighting each other?
Look at the fire from the Japanese's heavy machine guns. The bullets are like water pouring down, hitting our own people.
The Japs are truly Japs, they are even more brutal towards their own people.
I saw several ferocious Japanese soldiers rushing towards their own machine gun positions with lit explosives.
One or two of them were killed in the explosion of their own heavy machine guns.
Maybe some machine gunners couldn't bear it, or maybe the Japanese soldier was too close and the machine gunners didn't have time to react.
Finally, there was a fish that escaped the net and rushed into the machine gun position with explosives.
With a loud "bang", all the Japanese soldiers in the machine gun position were killed by the explosive packs.
While charging, Ding Wei took a look at the big hole left by the explosion.
The Japanese soldiers in the pit had been blown to pieces.
Even the light and heavy machine guns that had been reduced to parts were blown everywhere.
Captain Yamazaki, who was still in a daze in the trench, was filled with shame and anger as he watched everything happening before his eyes.
Yamazaki Jihei lamented: It has been more than 70 years since the Meiji Restoration and the establishment of the new army in Japan.
There has never been such a disastrous defeat.
The annihilation of the entire army is understandable, since they were not the only brigade to be annihilated by the Chinese army.
But before the Eighth Route Army's general offensive, they were still killing each other, which made him feel ashamed of his Majesty the Emperor.
He drew his own officer's sword and fell to his knees.
He slowly unbuttoned his military uniform, preparing to commit suicide by seppuku to thank his Emperor.
Suddenly, with a "puff" sound, a sharp command knife stabbed into his back and came out from his lower abdomen.
The sudden changes and pain left Yamazaki Jihei dumbfounded again.
He used all his strength to look back to see who had attacked him from behind.
He saw his trusted squadron leader with a ferocious face looking at him from behind.
"Bakayaro, Yamazaki Jihei you are an idiot. You killed the entire Yamazaki Battalion.
You say you are not good at fighting, but even committing suicide is so slow.
In your heart, do you still want to wait and become a prisoner of those Tubalu?"
The squadron leader became angrier as he spoke, twisting his hands hard.
Blood immediately spurted out from the tip of the knife that was exposed on Yamazaki's lower abdomen.
Yamazaki held the sword on his lower abdomen tightly with both hands.
He forced a smile and said to the squadron leader.
"Don't forget, I treated you to dinner."
His trusted squadron leader didn't want to bother with this headstrong guy at all.
The hands holding the knife exerted force and pulled his command knife out from Yamazaki's back.
He raised his command knife high and slashed at Yamazaki with all his might.
After a scream, Yamazaki Jihei's huge head rolled to the ground.
"Baga", one of Yamazaki Jihei's guards also reacted at this time.
He raised his hand and fired a shot, hitting the squadron leader in the chest.
The guard following the squadron leader also became anxious and stabbed the guard with his bayonet, knocking him down.
That Yamazaki guard is also a tough guy.
While the guard was drawing his bayonet, he detonated the grenade at his waist, and the two Japanese soldiers died together.
The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were becoming more and more anxious as they charged forward.
They shouted in their hearts: Japs, stop stabbing your own people.
The speed at which we are firing at the back cannot keep up with the speed at which you are killing each other.
At this time, the Japanese soldiers of the Yamazaki Battalion had undergone intense exercise.
The toxins from the mushrooms have traveled through their blood vessels for several cycles.
They were deeply trapped in an illusion where they could kill at will.
Because senior Japanese commanders, such as Yamazaki Jihei and the squadron leader, had died on the spot.
The few Japanese soldiers who remained conscious were unable to organize an effective counterattack.
