Punish the Butcher

  Punish the Butcher of Songhua-men! Headquarters of the 16th Division outside Guanghua Gate.

  The regimental commander Nakajima was having breakfast this morning when the brigade commander Koseno Taro, who had just received an order, arrived at his table.

  "Commander, are you going to deploy today's attack?"

  Nakashima hummed with his nose.

  "Caoyuan Jun can just continue to apply yesterday's conventional tactics and keep pressing towards Guanghua Gate."

  Cao Changchen didn't leave and was still standing in front of Zhong Dao, who put down the food in his hand and asked strangely: "Do you have anything else to say?"

  "Commander, our unit suffered heavy casualties in yesterday's battle, with nearly a third of our troops lost. We now have only over 2,000 men left, and we are severely lacking in food and ammunition. I request that you allocate some resources to us."

  Nakajima looked at the grassland and said: "Yesterday, I fought for a whole day and didn't even see what was inside Guanghua Gate. You still have the nerve to ask me for supplies."

  The grassland lowered its head and didn't speak.

  Nakashima stood up and pointed outside, saying: "Grassland, I'll tell you that because we're advancing too quickly, supplies can't keep up. You can go grab some! Chinese civilians have a lot of grain in their hands. As for ammunition, I can allocate some to you."

  The grassland suddenly realized and bowed out to prepare for battle.

  This is a person who came out of the inner room, and it was none other than Nakazawa Mitsuo, the chief of staff of the 16th Division.

  Nakazawa asked, "Commander, judging from the results of the other units' plundering yesterday, if we want to maintain the supply of our troops in the grassland, we must send out 1,000 people. So today's attack can only deploy one battalion at most. Judging from the enemy's firepower yesterday, it is absolutely impossible to take Guanghua Gate. Shouldn't we consider letting other brigades go up?"

  Nakajima finished eating the things on the table and said: "I have nothing but a regiment of grassland in my hand."

  Nakazawa was quite surprised.

  Nakajima explained: "Last night, the military department dispatched two regiments of our division and the direct-affiliated units of the division to attack Rain Flower Terrace. They said that the frontage of Guanghua Gate was too small and too many troops could not be deployed."

  "With just a battered brigade, you think you can take down Guanghua Gate?" Zhong Ze said angrily.

  Nakashima patted the young man's shoulder and signaled him not to worry.

  "Zhong Ze, you need more experience! Isn't this obvious?"

  "Not...?" Zhong Ze suddenly enlightened.

  Nakajima smiled: "The intention of the military department is very clear. The effect of pushing several lines yesterday was not good, and the strength was adjusted to focus on attacking in a few days. Our task is to continue to put pressure on the opponent at Guanghua Gate, making it impossible for them to reinforce. One regiment's strength is enough."

  The grassland dispatched a large team to search for food, and led another large team to continue attacking Guanghua Gate. At the beginning of the attack, the grassland really had no confidence. Yesterday, a coalition team took turns attacking but couldn't take down Guanghua Gate. Today, a large team of hundreds of people attacked, at most just going through the motions.

  However, after the attack unfolded, the grassland discovered that today's defender's firepower was surprisingly weak. It easily advanced to the front of Guanghua Gate, and even a few fearless ones rushed into the city gate tunnel.

  The grassland is greatly delighted and immediately reports the progress of the attack to the division commander and requests reinforcements.

  Nakajima was puzzled by the report of the grass field, and he suspected that it was fabricated by the guy in the grass field to clear his shame.

  At this time, the staff officer in charge of intelligence handed a telegram to Nakajima.

  Nakajima finished reading the telegram and said, "So that's how it is."

  Nakazawa asked beside him: "Commander, how should we deal with the grassland over there?"

  Nakajima immediately ordered: "Order the divisional guards to support Caochang. Organize all who can be organized. // Fastest search net // Try to take down Guanghua Gate this time."

  The staff immediately went to execute the order.

  Nakazeki asked strangely: "What happened?"

  Nakajima said: "The telegram just sent says that the garrison of Guanghua Gate has been replaced by a remnant soldier."

  Nakazawa asked strangely: "Withdraw the Guidance General Corps. They don't want Guanghua Gate anymore."

  Nakajima walked to the front of the battle map and said, "Take a look, Yu Huatai is the commanding height in this area. Now we launch a fierce attack on Yu Huatai with three divisions. Where can they withdraw their troops from? If Yu Huatai falls, we will rush down directly from above and Guanghuamen cannot be defended. I estimate that the Instruction Corps has gone to reinforce Yu Huatai."

  Nakazawa looked at the map and said: "In any case, it's not good for the division headquarters to have no regular guard troops!"?

  "Nakajima shook his head and said, 'Nakazaki, the Chinese troops have no spirit of taking the initiative to attack. Since the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, have you ever seen a Chinese troop take the initiative to attack?'"

  Nakazawa shook his head.

  It started this morning. The soldiers of the 524th Regiment at Guanghua Gate all felt strange. The regiment commander only ordered one hundred people to go up and guard the city wall, but not allowed to bring machine guns. The rest were holding shovels and repairing the inner side of the city wall.

  "Hei Da Ge said while digging: "The battalion commander wants us to build trenches, machine gun forts and underground bunkers inside the city walls. Are these things left for us to trip over when we retreat, or are they waiting for us to counterattack and leave them for the devils to use?"

  Many warriors also didn't understand. Xie Jin-yuan stopped them and told them to continue working. In less than two hours, the work was all repaired. On both sides of Guanghua Gate, relying on the buildings along the street, two machine gun forts were built. On the inner side of the city wall, about a dozen meters away from the city wall, a trench was also dug. The trench was covered with boards and earth.

  They charged as soon as they saw the enemy. Xie Jin yuan ordered all machine gunners to enter the trenches and machine gun forts, leaving 100 men on the city wall to defend the city.

  Xie Jin-yuan arranged everything and then followed Old Wang to the city wall. At first, the little devils were very cautious. I guess they were scared by yesterday's beating.

  When the devils found that the defenders' firepower was very weak, the little devils became rampant. Holding 38 big covers and shouting loudly, they charged forward. The city gate was occupied by the little devils in an instant. This was another troop that the little devils had brought from who-knows-where. Shouting slogans of "Wa ya ya", they rushed up.

  Xie Jin-yuan ordered the troops on the city wall to leave the top of the gate tower. He was afraid that the explosion would hurt his own people. Old Wang lay beside Xie Jin-yuan and counted how many little devils had entered the gate. When two companies of devils rushed into Guanghua Gate, Old Wang signaled Xie Jin-yuan to ignite it.

  Only a loud rumbling sound was heard and the Guanghua Gate collapsed. The two companies of devils inside the city lost contact with the devils in the rear.

  The grassland outside Guanghua Gate suddenly understood everything. This was the strategy of the Zhong team. The grassland secretly smiled in its heart: "This is equivalent to opening the door and inviting thieves."

  My two battalions inside can hold on for a while. As long as I lead the outer troops to respond and cooperate, Guanghua Gate will definitely be ours.

  But the grassland did not know that the division had no soldiers. The division commander's concealment of the grassland led to serious consequences.

  Liao Yaoxiang was in a hurry to rest, and the messenger came over to tell him that Guanghua Gate had fallen. Liao Yaoxiang cursed in his heart: "The 88th Division is really made of tofu. They lost Guanghua Gate in just a few hours."

  Liao Yaohuang sent a telegram to the division headquarters on one hand, and reorganized his troops to fight back on the other. He must retake Guanghua Gate, or else he would have to pay with his own life.

  Liao Yaohuang led his troops back to kill, but felt that something was wrong. It seemed that it was not the little devils who broke through Guanghua Gate, but rather the little devils were trapped inside the city.

  Liao Yaoxiang enthusiastically led his troops in the encirclement and suppression campaign.

  There were fifty or sixty Japanese soldiers crushed under the city gate. There were less than two hundred people in the city. The devils knew they had been tricked as soon as they saw that the city gate had been blown up. Two battalion commanders commanded their troops to rush out desperately. However, when they were about to rush to the city gate, they found that there was a new trench on the road where they came from, several hidden forts, and a concentrated firepower shot down, and dozens of people fell on this side.

  The devils ran into the city with a wow. They happened to run into Liao Yaoxiang who came to reinforce. Would Liao Yaoxiang let them go? Of course not. Only a few devils surrendered, and the rest were annihilated.

  Xie Jinyuan and Liao Yaohuang were busy repairing the city wall and sending telegrams to the headquarters. Old Wang, however, was more interested in those several Japanese prisoners of war.

  Old Wang led Hei Da Ge, Xiao Hou Zi and a few others to the headquarters to see the captives.

  A few people entered the POW camp and saw a little devil with his legs raised, leisurely eating American canned food.

  Old Wang was so angry that he couldn't help but burst out. Is this a prisoner of war or something?! It's like they're asking the captive to be their father! The Geneva Convention only stipulates that prisoners of war should not be mistreated, but it doesn't say that they have to be treated as fathers, does it?!

  Old Wang used to be a Japanese soldier who would kick him in the waist. The Chinese translator next to him hastily stood up and rebuked, "What are you doing? Don't you know the Geneva Convention?"

  Old Wang made a face at Hei Da. Old Hei understood and went up to grab the translator's collar, scolding: "Bullshit treaty! I knew that little devil had national hatred and family enmity with me."

  Old Wang ordered Little Monkey to watch them. He himself took a dagger and forced the interpreter to translate what he said to the devils.

  The little devil wouldn't answer a single word of Old Wang's questions.

  Old Wang got angry. He ordered two men to tie the little devil to a wooden stake. Old Wang took out a whip and said to Hei Da Ge and Xiao Hou Zi, "The time for revenge has come. You can start hitting now. I'll help you carry the team leader."

  Hei Da Ge grabbed the whip and rushed towards Xiao Gui Zi. Fan Yi tried to stop him, but who was the one stopping him? He wanted to go out and report, but Lao Wang had blocked the door tightly. At first, the ghost was quite resistant, until Lao Wang took out his camera and took two photos of it, threatening to publish them in the newspaper. The little ghost finally surrendered. It begged Lao Wang not to publish the photos, saying that if they were published, its relatives back home would be in trouble.

  "This little devil is from the 16th Division's Guard Company. They've all come up. Old Wang immediately realized this was an opportunity and asked again: 'Does your division headquarters still have any troops on hand?'"

  The little devil nodded and said: "There is another battalion, but this battalion went to Tangcun and Pancun to grab food today and has not returned yet."

  Old Wang immediately called up two people to bring the captive translator back to the team. Hei Da Ge and Xiao Hou Zi thought Old Wang was going to hand over this Japanese soldier to their own turf for a lesson, with an excited look on their faces.
