Chapter 70: Blocking Position (Below)

  The officers and soldiers fell one by one on the road of charge, their faces were very calm.

  No one retreated and no one deliberately hid at the end.

  The wing's battalion, under the leadership of the battalion commander, also launched a charge.

  Hundreds of officers and soldiers stepped on their comrades' bodies, step by step, getting closer to the Japanese army's troops.

  They had a choice, save themselves, sacrifice their own comrades.

  As long as they hold their ground, they will have accomplished their mission.

  They also knew that if a friendly position in the distance fell, it would be a devastating blow to the entire occupation.

  Only by quickly resolving this Japanese army can the entire occupation be changed.

  Another camp next to Wu Ming's also launched an attack.

  Two battalions, one thousand officers and soldiers, gradually unfolded a fierce battle with the Japanese army.

  Just as both sides were fighting a hard battle, the remaining troops of the Japanese 17th Brigade, with more than a thousand men, reinforced again.

  At this point, the Japanese army's strength of over 2,000 men had already gained the upper hand.

  One by one, the officers and soldiers fell under the Japanese bayonets, they were fulfilling their own promise.

  "Take cover, be careful." A lieutenant rushed to Wu Ming's side, a bullet had already shot into the lieutenant's body.

  A Japanese army lieutenant in the distance, holding his own southern pistol, with a hint of a triumphant smile.

  "Little Japan, I'm going to fight you to the death!" Wu Ming charged forward with his bayonet towards the Japanese lieutenant.

  The lieutenant continued firing rapidly, a bayonet thrust into his heart.

  Wu Ming looked at his subordinates and revealed a faint smile.

  The warrior who had just defeated a Japanese lieutenant looked at his superior's smile with great joy.

  The warrior's smile slowly stiffened as he saw Japanese bayonets appearing on both sides of his superior officer.

  "Fall back." The warrior shouted hastily.

  Wu Ming quickly retreated two steps back, and the two bayonets stabbed towards his body from in front.

  Looking at the two daggers in front of him, even Wu Ming, who had been through a hundred battles, couldn't help but break out in cold sweat on his back.

  There is no one in the world who is not afraid of death; they are just forced to choose it.

  If there is a chance to live, everyone would like to survive.

  The warriors beside him saw their commander in trouble and quickly gathered around.

  But at this moment, Wu Ming felt a chill on his back, a painful feeling that had already reached his brain.

  "Camp!" Several warriors not far from Wu Ming shouted out loudly and quickly.

  Wu Ming endured the pain and turned his head to glare coldly at the Japanese soldiers.

  The short Japanese soldier, with a fierce glint in his eyes, wanted to quickly pull out his bayonet, but was tightly held back by Wu Ming's left hand.

  Wu Ming quickly pulled out a pistol with his right hand and fired a shot at the Japanese army.

  The Japanese army fell to the ground, and Wu Ming's body was attacked by the Japanese army again.

  After all, the number of Japanese troops now has an advantage.

  Two daggers had already pierced into Wu Ming's body, and Wu Ming was gradually losing consciousness.

  Several officers rushed over to rescue their superior.

  They desperately shouted and pushed Wu Ming's body.

  "The loss of the three northeastern provinces is our responsibility as soldiers; even if we die a thousand times, we cannot redeem this sin."

  The officer's reprimand seemed to appear in the ears of the officers and soldiers, but the former officer had become a cold corpse.

  "Little Japan, I'm going all out with you!" A junior lieutenant pulled the pin on a grenade and charged into the crowd of Japanese soldiers.

  A massive explosion tore the lieutenant's body apart.

  Five devils were blown up on the spot, and a dozen or so around them fell to the ground, groaning in agony.

  Death is fearful for them, but at this moment, they have no choice but to choose death.

  The fall of the three eastern provinces is a lifelong shame for them.

  Zhang Shuai gave an order, and hundreds of thousands of Northeastern Army abandoned their homes and let the three provinces fall into the hands of the Japanese invaders.

  But now they use their own blood and lives to redeem themselves slowly.

  The first stop on the journey is upstairs.

  The officers and soldiers have already engaged in a fierce battle with the Japanese army, more and more officers and soldiers fell to the ground.

  The Japanese army showed no mercy, bayonets thrust brutally into the bodies of the soldiers.

  Kang Lianqin had already fainted from inhaling too much toxic gas.

  No one is retreating, those who were killed by the disciplinary troops are cowards and there will be no consolation.

  Heroes who died in battle here can still have their families compensated.

  The officers and men of the four camps tightly blocked the breakout of the Japanese 32nd Brigade.

  Their casualties were heavy, but they had no choice.

  "Fall in!" A captain shouted loudly.

  But his superior had already fallen to the ground.

  It seemed as if the heavens were showing compassion, and a gentle breeze slowly began to blow.

  The smoke gradually disappeared, but the bloody battle between China and Japan had just begun.

  The remaining two battalions of the Fourth Division have quickly come to reinforce under Xu Da's leadership.

  Watching the fierce battle between Chinese and Japanese forces everywhere, Xu Da quickly ordered his troops to join the fight.

  One battalion rushed to reinforce its two battalions, while the rest of the troops charged towards the position of the First Brigade under Xu Da's leadership.

  After seeing the reinforcements, the morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted, and they finally blocked the Japanese army's breakout.

  The headquarters of the Japanese Eighth Division.

  Maeda Toshisada has boarded a truck and is heading in the direction of the 16th Brigade.

  A dozen tanks cleared the way for Toshiaki Maeda.

  While the 4th Brigade Commander, Toshinari Suzuki, was still leading his troops and actively approaching the division headquarters.

  The battle has reached its final moment. The officers and men of the 2nd and 3rd brigades have gathered together to clear out small Japanese troops.

  "Commander, we've captured a lot of trucks and tanks. This time we're rich!" Liang Fei jumped off his war horse, pointing to the neatly arranged trucks and tanks in the distance.

  Yang Junran revealed a faint smile, but he didn't know the painful price of the first trip.

  "Quickly clear the remaining Japanese troops, sweep the battlefield, your cavalry regiment and tank regiment quickly assemble to support the combat of Colonel Kang Yan." Yang Junran gave orders swiftly.

  Li Feng respectfully bowed and walked away in one direction.

  "Master Yang, something's wrong!" Fang Hanchen shouted as he ran over from a distance.

  "What's wrong." Yang Junran looked at Fang Hanchen who was somewhat flustered and was very surprised.

  "The Japanese army used poison gas bombs to attack, the first brigade suffered heavy casualties. The fourth brigade has already reinforced and rushed over, and the Japanese army also has more than 2,000 troops, who are rushing towards here." Fang Hanqin quickly reported the situation.

  Yang Junran furrowed his brow for a moment, gazing at the chaotic battlefield as he fell into thought.

  "Director Fang, lead the Second and Third Brigades to clean up this place and stabilize it. After stabilization, immediately let the Second Brigade rush over to reinforce. I will lead the Cavalry Regiment and Tank Regiment to quickly reinforce." Yang Junran gave orders swiftly.

  Fang Hanqin nodded and immediately walked over to one side.

  Yang Junran looked at a war horse not far away and quickly jumped onto it, shouting loudly: "Cavalry regiment, tank regiment, set off immediately."

  Under Yang Jun-ran's command, sixty tanks and over a thousand cavalrymen quickly advanced towards the 16th Brigade.

  In the truck, Maeda Toshiya was extremely displeased.

  He knew that this time he went back, the position of the division commander would definitely not be kept.

  Chief of Staff Sakai Kōtarō was shot and killed by a bullet.

  Only less than one company of soldiers followed him.

  Now Maeda Toshisada had no intention of attacking Yang Jun's army, and as soon as he met the 16th Brigade, he would immediately lead the 16th Brigade to retreat.

  It so happened that the two light brigades reinforcing Maeda Toshiie did not directly reinforce Maeda along the road.

  But instead of going straight, he made a detour from the side and just missed meeting Toshiyuki Ochiai for this team.

  The fierce battle in the distance was still going on, and Toshiie Maeda had already observed it through a telescope.

  "Commander, the 16th Brigade ahead of us has also engaged in combat. Shall we continue to advance?" a lieutenant colonel walked over and asked.

  Maeda Toshiie furrowed his brow and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Send telegrams to each department, telling them to break through quickly and meet us at Doron County."

  The lieutenant nodded and walked over to one side.

  The whole team changed direction again and walked along the road back.

  At this moment, Yang Junran's tank cavalry collided with Maeda Toshiie's vehicle team.

  Sixty tanks rapidly deployed an attack, Yang Junran looked at this fleet of cars and sensed something.

  "Liang Fei, lead the cavalry regiment to quickly reinforce the First Brigade from the side and go around." Yang Junran shouted to Liang Fei beside him.

  Liang Fei did not hesitate at all, waved his hand, and more than a thousand cavalry quickly circled around from both sides.

  Zhang Junzhe led the tanks in a continued attack.

  Shells kept exploding on the trucks, and a dozen tanks became the focus of the tank team's attack.

  Yang Junran jumped off his war horse and occupied a mound of earth.

  Shouldering his own semi-formal rifle, he continuously aimed and fired.

  The sky gradually brightened, and Toshifusa Maeda had already escaped under the protection of his vassals.

  Over a hundred infantrymen quickly organized to ensure the safety of Maeda Toshiie.

  The tanks of both sides then engaged in a fierce battle.

  They were all Type 97 tanks of the Japanese army, which means whoever was more skilled would take the upper hand.

  Sixty tanks faced off against a dozen or so Japanese tanks, with the tank corps clearly having the upper hand.

  In no time at all, Japanese tanks were being hit one after another.

  Due to the thickness of the armor of the Japanese tanks, most of them have been destroyed.

  Yang Junran took aim at an opportunity and shot at a Japanese soldier.

  A bullet hit the soldier and he slowly fell to the ground.

  The Japanese army in the distance was on high alert, and these soldiers who could protect Maeda Toshiie were naturally excellent soldiers.

  The Japanese army was on high alert, which gave Yang Junran a difficult problem.

  These hidden Japanese troops did not let Yang Junran discover a single flaw.

  Helpless Yang Junran could only move forward, running towards a distant damaged tank.

  The guards behind Yang Junran saw him move and quickly organized firepower to cover him.

  Poor collection, poor recommendation
